text: There is nothing positive to say about this buffet In the city where every hotel has one I would expect that excess competition would breed quality Clearly this is not the case nThe choices were few Hardly anything was very fresh Not a single selection stood out for it is flavor or at least appearance I usually have a hard time walking upright after leaving a buffet but this time I left still feeling some hungernnIve sampled a number of buffets in Vegas over the years and while there are some that offer much better experience than others Courtyard buffet is the first that I would definitely avoidnThere is only one reason to eat there if you are staying at the Stratosphere do not know your way about town and are hungry I fit two and a half of the three While I am somewhat familiar with Vegas I was too hungry and tired to look around
