| - I'm trying my hardest to not give this buffet a 2-star rating. Because honestly if you hover that tiny little mouse over the 2-star rating, it reads "Meh. I've experienced better." And frankly, I have. Hands down my favorite buffet in Vegas so far is Wicked Spoon at the Cosmo (see my review for more about it) and taking second billing would be the Wynn Buffet (also reviewed).
Reason why I'm not giving it a 2 is because it's not horrible; I didn't get food poisoning, food wasn't tasteless, I didn't leave hungry. BUT I did regret what I paid for and felt absolutely disappointed in choosing to eat here. I understand that they're known for their wide variety of items to choose from which there were, but the quality of those items were pretty run of the mill. Chips and salsa. Mac and cheese. Your token "Asian section" with chow mein and fried rice. The seafood section was lackluster. My cod was dry and bland. Probably the only food item I did like was their truffle scalloped potatoes. I went for seconds on that one - must have! But that's about it. Their dessert section didn't excite me. I think I ate all my custard cause it tasted like leche flan (shout out to all my Filipinos), sampled the rest of the desserts and pushed them to the side of my plate. Super wasteful but I pretty much saved other people's time from grabbing a sub-par dessert. You're welcome, Vegas patrons.
You expect grandeur at a place like this, well at least I did. Especially with this kind of price tag, you expect tiny ass rainbows to come shooting out of your eyes as you body roll in your seat making yummy noises. Sadly, none of these things happened. I was left rainbow less and my body refused to roll.
I would not come back. Sorry, Bacchanal. I'm probably better off taking my money elsewhere... slots anyone?
