text: I came here after hearing the rumors that this is the \"best buffet in Vegas.\" Let me preface my review with the fact that I am a pescatarian, a recession-era college graduate, who doesn't drink and I was underwhelmed with my experience here.\n\nI checked out the tips on Yelp, which advised me to arrive early so that I could get a ticket before paying and being seated (thanks, Yelpers!). My boyfriend and I grabbed our tickets from one of the kiosks next to the hostess's podium, which is already pretty confusing as people were fumbling around, wondering how to get seated at the Holy Grail of Vegas buffets. Of course, we checked in at 1p so we would have enough time to embrace the brunch price tag (with the unlimited mimosas for my beau) and stay for the beginning of their dinner service. We were notified via text exactly 70 minutes after we got our ticket (as promised) that our seats will be held for 15 minutes. We made it in the nick of time and, luckily, there was no line to pay. We were asked to pose for souvenir pictures in front, which we were later solicited to purchase for $25 during our meal - just because we are eating here does not mean we want to spend $25 to commemorate our excessive spending on excessive eating! We were seated pretty quickly, as there were plenty of vacant tables around the restaurant.\n\nThe selection was tragically lackluster. There were the standard staples of most buffets (e.g. salad bar, pizza station, hamburger sliders, crab legs, sushi, pastries) with stations for meat-carving, meat and cheese, dim sum, udon/ramen, and southern comfort food (i.e. corn on the cob, tater tots, etc.). As a pescatarian who doesn't like shellfish, you could imagine how limited my options were. There were about 5 types of rolls to choose from [including pickled vegetables (seriously?!), imitation crab (come on!), spicy tuna], and then a few choices of nigiri (salmon, tuna, and shrimp). The dim sum selection was pitiful and I'm pretty sure the har gow had been frozen. My boyfriend loved the shumai.\n\nWe moseyed on over to the seafood station and grabbed some salmon and some sort of unmarked whitefish, both of which we decided not to finish after one bite. My boyfriend excitedly filled his plate with the selections from the meat-carving station only to find out that most of the lamb chop had been fat and it was underwhelming, despite the grand presentation.\n\nNow onto the desserts -- they have a crepe station, which I was really excited about until I realized that they cook the crepes for you and then you slather on preserved berries, bananas, and cool whip to your liking - where's the nutella? Why didn't they put fresh fruit in them for me like a real creperie would have? Oh, right, I paid $50 to do it myself... I also tried their gelato, which was pretty delicious, but they were distributed in small servings (smaller than my fist), which, in retrospect, is probably wise since people are probably stuffed by the time they reach dessert. Their vanilla with fleur de sel and salted caramel flavors are delicious! They also have a create-your-own ice cream sandwich option with chocolate cookies or almond cookies, which was a pretty neat option.\n\nEssentially, this buffet is not pescatarian/vegetarian-friendly. I ended up filling up on spicy tuna rolls and cocktail shrimp with dabbling in new, disappointing dishes in between before giving up and diving into the desserts. I am also disappointed that their brunch selection was more \"-unch\" than \"br-,\" as they did not have many \"traditional\" breakfast options (other than dim sum and red velvet pancakes).\n\nMy favorites from this place were the juices they had in adorable individual carafes (guava, mango, cranberry, to name a few) and their ice cream, I guess. \nIf you're looking for high prices, limited selection, and even less satisfying quality, this is the place to be! Nothing in this buffet seemed notable or worth coming back for. My boyfriend mainly liked his sliders that he topped with their guacamole, but seriously? I'm not going to pay $50 for sliders, juice, and gelato.\n\nI'm glad we tried it so that we know what \"the best buffet in Vegas\" is really like, so we can go back to The Bellagio with $20 more in our pockets and Beef Wellington and sushi hand rolls in our stomachs!
