. "13"^^ . "3"^^ . "INEXPENSIVE Pizza-Salad-Pasta Buffet!\n\nSITREP\n\nThere is NOTHING Spectacular about this location (across the street from the Stratosphere) nor it's menu (QUITE ordinary). And though that does not sound like a stellar-recommendation for someone to \"go-out-of-their-way to come to\", it IS what it IS, and if you are close by and hungry, this is a stop definitely worth poppin for. \n\nSETUP\n\nAs a guest in the Stratosphere, I first noticed Aztec Inn when I was walking to the Circle K (and I should review this Circle K, cause IT is very cool too), and saw that they had a $6.95 all you can eat Pizza Buffet. I pay this when I do the pizza buffets at Roundtable and Mountain Mike's back in Sacramento.\n\nTHE MENU\n\nThis buffet was so much better with:\n\n* A big selection of pizza slices (including a substantial amount of veggies & pesto based-sauces);\n* A big selection of leafy greens, lots of different salad toppings and options;\n* A pasta bar with a couple of different selections, usually one with a meat sauce, and then another with a marinara or an alfredo-based sauce; and,\n* The bottomless soda was also a great plus. \n\nBeing in the casino also allowed many patrons to take advantage of the FULL bar nearby which was it's own separate cost (but usually spirits beyond normal beer & wine are available in most pizza establishments, and sometimes not even the beer & wine).\n\nTHE LOWDOWN\n\nSure, it's very quaint, not at all elegant, but if you're trying to mind your money, and don't want to get stuck putting out $50-$70 for a buffet wristband on the strip that will anchor you to only a handful of food & diversity options for three days, then these little out of the way places are true gems to enjoy."^^ .
