| - For two people we spent around $75 (without tip) for this buffet. I was unimpressed and quite disappointed by the quality of food. We waited in line for about 30 minutes. For some reason the hostesses sat parties of three or more faster than parties of two, even though there were quite a few tables for two open???
We get seated and immediately go to the buffet to try the food! I started my dinner with a salad from their salad station located in the right-hand area of the buffet. The assortment of fresh vegetables was limited, as was the variety of about five different dressings. Though the vegetables and dressings were all very good. But how the heck can you screw up your own creation of a salad? I do give the Wynn's Buffet an extra brownie point for having freshly shaved parmesan cheese and about four different varieties of cheese slices (cheddar, brie, gouda, etc.)! Along w/my salad I got a roll. It was stiff but not stale, and luke warm. Meanwhile, my boy friend chows down on a large plate of king crab legs. He said the crab legs were pre-steamed and served iced. Hmm, when I think of crab legs, I think of them hot and steaming--especially for this price! While we are chowing down our first plates, our waitress finds us to take our drink orders--two cokes.
My next trip up to the buffet I got some Asian beef & broccoli that was freshly made, and some mashed potatoes w/turkey gravy. I would've gotten some of the Asian pork potstickers but they didn't look too appetizing, nor did I see any soy/ginger sauce for dipping. Oh, I would've also gotten the carved turkey but they seemed to have run out for the entire night--and I'm not much of a prime rib person :-(. I get back to our small table for two and start with the mashed potatoes w/turkey gravy--pretty good! I try my beef & broccoli...hmm...not very Asian tasting...pretty fatty and gristly (yuck). I tried to eat as much of the broccoli as I can but, the flavor of the dish is not what I deem as an authentic Asian dish. Both items on this dish were cool to luke warm in temperature :-(.
At this point I'm pretty disappointed in the food. So I know if I order pasta from the pasta station it WILL BE HOT and probably pretty good, right? I go up there to scan the variety of Italian foods... There's only one guy in front of me getting his pasta made. I figure, "no sweat," my order will be taken promptly since there are four other stove burners to prepare pasta. I waited there about five minutes but the chef never even said a word to me. I was fully ready to tip him $5 for some hot pasta with some alfredo sauce! Enough is enough...I plop some pre-made mac & cheese on my plate. I walk by some fruit cups (with mint), grab one and go back to our table.
I get back to our table and it is totally cleared off--no silverware, no drinks, no receipt. We didn't even tip yet and they clear off the table! WTF!!!! I sit down and look around for our server. She immediately comes over and apologizes. One of the bussers brings us new silverware and our server brings us new cokes. Getting back to the food... my mac & cheese was again luke warm. The taste was average, however, I do think if it was hot, I would've said it was "good." The fruit cup was fresh and had a pleasant hint of mint.
Our last plate was dessert--creme brulee. I really wanted to go to the Wynn's Buffet because I knew they had this there. It was okay but, I did not go for a second helping.
Overall, our experience at the Wynn's Buffet was less than average. The atmosphere was nice and decadent. There were plenty of chefs, bussers, servers to accommodate it's large clientele. Though, I still can't believe none of these employees caught us going towards the buffet NOT the exit; thus clearing off our table! All of the hot foods we sampled were either cool or luke warm, very disappointing. The quality of food lacked as well. The buffet is not worth $35 + tax a person and, I hope I can save a lot of visitors some money!
In spite of all of this we still tipped a mere 15%. We would've liked to give more but, felt the quality and service was not worth it.
