As far as Vegas buffets go, there are far better choices then the Garden Buffet at the South Point Hotel. However, given the fact that the hotel itself is pretty far south on Las Vegas Blvd. and isolated plus the discounts available if you become a Club member, it wasn't a bad choice.
We recently drove to Vegas to get married and stayed at the South Point Hotel for a few days before and after the ceremony. We took advantage of the free Club membership and wanted to utilize the coupons and discounts we were provided upon check-in therefore dinner on the first night was at the Garden Buffet.
They have various stations including Seafood, Asian, Italian, BBQ, etc. so there was a good variety of food available for every taste. The unfortunate aspect was that it wasn't very tasty. We had breakfast there the following morning and although not that impressive, it was better than the dinner the night before.
The final night there we decided to give the BBQ a try and were sadly disappointed. In our opinion, the Seafood dinner was far better and tastier in comparison.
All in all, the price, convenience and service are the reasons we tried the Garden Buffet but I must say that the quality and taste of the food was very lacking.
