Whyyyy.
Come on MGM. I know Excalibur is the cheapest hotel of your properties, but this is kind of embarrassing. When nearly all your food is tough and inedible, it's time to step it up. You know something's off when your staff (who are really nice +1 star) starts apologizing before you even say anything. I mean, I get that you're not aiming for Aria status, but when you're a Hometown Buffet at a Vegas price...
Sigh. I love Excalibur, but I do not love your buffet.
