text: I guess I should preface this review by saying that I am really not that big on buffets.  However, if you are going to visit The Buffet at Bellagio, please make sure you are a Mlife member (their rewards card system...it's FREE to join) and have at least a Pearl status.  \n\nThe lines for this buffet are ridiculous! Ridiculous! Ridiculous! My sister, Tanysha W, and I skipped the line because they have a separate line for Mlife members.   However, the sign does not specify that you need to have a Pearl status to be considered VIP.  The lady excused our ignorance and let us cut the line anyway.  Thankfully, because the line was ridiculously long.  (Did I mention that, already?)\n\nThe food was... buffet food, nothing spectacular.   Pastries, sushi, eggs, potatoes, bacon, french toast, fruit bar, etc.\n\n The lunch buffet was $24.99 and the champagne brunch was $30.99.
