| - Am I the only one that likes this buffet?
Is it closed for breakfast and lunch during the week? Yes. Is there a limited food selection that pretty much sticks to the basics? You bet. Is the quality of food questionable? Absolutely!
But for $8.99, it is the best buffet around. Just make sure you flash your shiny player's card, which takes only 5-20 minutes to get (depending upon how hard someone is arguing for a comp over their $30 slot play for the day). Or else you pay $14.99 for dinner, which is a ridiculous rate for what you end up getting. Heck, I can admit this.
There's the typical salad bar, carving station, Mexican/Chinese/Italian offerings, and some "American" choices that change depending upon what night you go, but with no identifiable schedule. They claim every night is Prime Rib Night, but I think that's a tall tale...it tastes like roast beef. You be the judge.
They also have an impressive selection of pizza that tastes nostalgically like the stuff they used to serve in my elementary cafeterias. One time, they had out a pizza that I swear was topped with Baco's Bacon Flavor Bits. Oddly enough, it was some of the best stinkin' pizza I've ever had.
The husband was quick to disagree, however.
The drinks are self service and include a wide variety of sodas, juices, and milks. The coffee is some of the worst I've ever had the displeasure of trying.
The dessert selection is all right. The diabetics really win in this category. The selection of sugar free goodies is staggering. And delicious.
The staff is friendly and efficient. Seating is ample. Food is always stocked, and generally fresh. Not always. But for $8.99, you can't have it all.
You want it all? Go to the Rio or the Bellagio.
Me? Imma stick with my low expectations, cheap budget, and iron stomach.
