| - Like many other reviewers have said, you get what you pay for. I've been twice, for the breakfast buffet ($4) and the brunch buffet ($9).
Terrible's is a small casino (the low ceilings don't help) with a small dining area and small buffet. You're seated fairly quickly and the wait staff is pretty attentive. With such a small area, though, if your drinks haven't been refilled it's pretty easy to find someone to take care of you.
The first time I went for the breakfast. I've lived in Vegas for 2 years and have driven by the sign a million times so I finally decided to drop in. Standard breakfast fare: eggs, bacon, sausage, hash browns, biscuits, cereal, fruit, donuts, crepes, waffles, etc. Nothing amazing. The quality was a bit meh -- the eggs were a bit watery, the biscuits small and hard. It really reminded me of my high school's breakfast offerings. It's really hard to screw up some breakfast foods, though. So if you want some milk, cereal, fruit, bacon... why pay $15 on the strip for it? For some reason they also had fresh chicken wings and chili.
I later went again to get the $4 breakfast but it was the weekend and instead they were doing brunch, which is $9. The brunch includes pretty much all the same stuff as the breakfast but they also have catfish, lasagne, a taco bar, several meats that you can request slices of, chicken fingers, stuffed peppers, cake, pie, pastas, and salad. The eggs were a bit better this time around, but the other food was a bit lacking. The chicken fingers were a bit dry, the taco bar didn't seem to have any cheese, and the slice of beef brisket I got tasted like it had been marinated in a gallon of liquid smoke.
Overall, for $4 ($4.31 with tax) the breakfast is a fine value. The brunch, lunch, or dinner buffets are not really worth it, though.
