| - Not a mere meal, an event. At least if you eat (and drink) like I do, it is.
"Buffet, meet Jessica." *buffet runs away screaming*
I can safely say that this is my favorite buffet for champagne brunch in Vegas. I have now been here three out of the last three times I have been in Vegas and plan to make it four out of four whenever my next Vegas adventure may be. The mimosas are truly bottomless, and the service is friendly and attentive. I love that they're open on Saturdays as well as Sundays and especially that brunch runs until 3pm (because let's face it an "early start" is anytime before noon in Vegas time).
The crab legs never run out. They have a beautifully fresh and bountiful seafood section that overflows with an abundance of various shellfish, as well as a tasty selection of hot seafood dishes. This is what stole my heart and kept me coming back.
I love that they have a wide variety of international cuisines to choose from, with plenty of emphasis on the Asian styles (my favorites!) including sushi, dim sum, assorted pho and ramen soups, Thai, Chinese, and the like. I tried my first (good) Ramen here, and that is the bowl that first sold me on it as a legitimate cuisine. There is also a selection of Mexican, Italian, Indian, Mediterranean, and so many other types of food I can't even think of them all. They also have a nice array more common american-ish foods here including a rotisserie (serving prime rib and other meats), fried everything, any side dish I can ever remember having on my parents' dinner table, a salad bar, and all breakfast-y foods imaginable including an omelette bar and waffle station.
And then there's dessert. (If you have any hidden nook in your tummy that is not stuffed full at this point.) A decadent assortment of chocolate and baked everything. Cue sugar coma.
Keep in mind that it *is* a buffet so you are not going to get sushi that is equal to the best sushi restaurant you've ever eaten at or prime rib as good as the Michelin joint up the street ... but considering how (comparatively) little you are paying the selection, sheer volume, and the fun experience make up for that in my opinion. I don't consider this my 'fine dining' experience of the weekend... it's more of the 'lets see how many mimosas and crab legs we can shove in our faces in 2 hours then walk around Vegas all drunk-and-full-like for the next few hours' way to start your day/weekend. For that, I will keep coming back until the mimosas stop flowing.
