Ugh. I arrive at The Flamingo after traveling for what felt like 12 hours starving my ass off and decide to eat here because my buddy and I were just too exhausted to look elsewhere. Wish we took the 20 minutes to find another place...
Their sign said that their lunch buffet ends at 3pm and at 3:01pm the lady behind the desk gave us the lunch price. Kudos. Walking to our table I immediately noticed a Vegas hotel style restaurant with appealing outside views of a small walkway and a pretty water fountain. Cool. And then it goes downhill...
The only thing that was really good from this buffet were the crab legs. I had a fair share of them but they didn't have an crab leg crackers --- just a small utensil to pick out your crab meat. My task to stuff my face was very difficult. There was a small section open for sushi but the sushi there appeared to have been out for a few hours. All the cooked food appeared and tasted overcooked. They had a build your own nachos section but no chips. I was hoping that I would get at least something decent from the dessert aisle but the cookies were rock hard!
I suppose if you were to come here you should come during peak hours since food is always being shuffled. Looks like we were in the middle of a shift change or menu change from lunch to dinner. This is Las Vegas --- the world's number one tourist attraction. Step it up.
