| - I have to say, good job Ceasers for FINALLY making a buffet that *should* be in a place like yours. I've been wanting to go since it was announced that they were even making it and then the reviews came out. But the last time I was in Vegas, they had just opened, and it was NYE weekend so we didn't even venture to the strip (I was staying with a friend who lives in Vegas). But this time, we were staying across the street. There was NO WAY I was going to miss out.
Dinner during the weekend is about $55, Sunday Brunch was $45. I think. You get like a dollar or two off with your Total Rewards membership card.
There is a virtual queue - you will see the computers set up. Make sure to go up and pull a ticket. This will tell you when to come back to get back in line to pay and then get seated. There are NO SIGNS for this or anyone telling you to do it. I'm sure it's not as crazy during the week but on the weekends, this is a must.
When my friend and I were there Friday night pretty late and we had NO problems getting in. We didn't even know about the virtual queue. But on Saturday when we returned with more friends, we were denied entry and it was only 730pm. They had already filled up their virtual queue and were not letting anyone else get in line. It was basically sold out. We had talked to a lady in line and she said that they were there at 6, got a ticket and it said to come back at 8. The buffet closes at 1030pm. Since we were hungry, we left and went to another place for dinner.
However, we did return Sunday for brunch before we left town.
Now on to the food!
There are several stations:
Seafood - oysters on the half shell, crab legs (cold and warmed up with hot water at request), shrimp, and various other seafood dishes. There is a warm drawn butter machine for you!
Italian - pizza, pasta, meatballs and a made to order pasta station
Asian - an assortment of dim sum items (buns, shumai, etc) plus the usual chinese fare - kung pao chicken, chow mein, fried rice etc. also had some pad thai and some other meat options that I don't remember. A small assortment of sushi (there was definitely more fish on the sushi during dinner than brunch) There is also a noodle station to order where you can get udon, pho or ramen.
Carving station - there is so much meat here, your head will spin. Prime Rib, baby back ribs, smoked brisket, smoked turkey, a variety of sausage links, lamb chops. During brunch, they had more sausage varieties, but I had to wait until it was closer to lunch time to get some brisket and ribs. I asked the guy carving and he went in the back and got them. I had turkey on Friday dinner but they had run out of the brisket (since we were close to closing time). Both were really good.
Mexican - you can get tacos to order. There was also beans, rice, carnitas, machaca, chicken, a salsa bar and a juice bar.
American - I don't know what else to call this area - it's where they have the mashed potatoes, veggies, mac and cheese, etc. They didn't have any fried chicken when we were there for dinner, but at brunch they had it to go with waffles. There were sweet potato tots, roasted potatoes, french fries. I think i seriously had a plate of potatoes. There were even baked potatoes available. Mini sliders (which we were sure they had been sitting for a while) were a little dry.
Salad bar - I didn't venture too much here - but there was a variety of salads and dressings you could get. There was also a lot of fruit, a variety of cheese and cured meats. And a huge area with a variety of bread.
Dessert - There is a gelato bar with some interesting flavors, crepes to order with plenty of whipped cream, berries, bananas foster and nutella to your hearts content. During dinner there were macaroons and chocolate covered strawberries but they didn't have it when we were there during brunch. There is the usual variety of cakes, cookies, brownies, and creme brulee as well.
I'm sure I missed all sorts of things. The food was pretty amazing. There were a few things that we didn't like, but for the most part it was really good. I mean - we went twice in a weekend ! Definitely will be back.
