text: One of Las Vegas claims to fame are their buffets Long stations filled with anything that your heart desires Happy people taking pictures of food with their cell phones and talking about how great their food is Other people clamoring around the various stations excited to try something new or eat some of their old time favorites My experience at the this buffet however was quite different I think everyone there was just looking around wide eyed and thinking to themselves that is itnnThis place cannot even compete with the comfort foods of a place like Hometown Buffet and Hometown would charge you less My reviews are always relative to the level of service one would expect from a certain level of restaurant and those that are comparable in the area For one of the most famous Las Vegas hotels in the middle of the strip a place like this has the cash flow to impress But impress they did not Even the service we received was not uptopar with the other buffets we went tonnI thought their salad area was very fresh though extremely small and they also have crab legs and fresh carved ham I went during the brunch so they also had breakfast items the waffles were very cute made of the various suits of playing cards diamonds clubs etc nnBut other than that I did not find anything really that appetizing Oh yeah and if you are dying from dehydration make sure to try the scrambled eggs There was so much water in those things that I thought I was going to float away after eating them nnCome on Flamingo you can do so much betternnSUGGESTIONS According to the Flamingo Las Vegas Website Watch the playful antics of some of the Flamingos wildlife while enjoying a fresh feast at the Paradise Garden BuffetnnWhat they fail to tell you on the website is that you are going to need binoculars to see those playful antics as all the tables near the windows are reserved for the Platinum Club Members so if you are just here for the buffet then you might as well forget about those playful antics Maybe you can make random bird calls in the restaurant and start some playful antics of your own
