Now, this is a buffet. A few weeks ago, I took a trip to Las Vegas for a pharmacy conference, and was craving good quality food for good price. I was already sick of the outrageous prices of food in "fast food" places in the Venetian (having spent nearly 10 dollars on a coffee and a bagel), I was craving good quality food. A friend suggested we take advantage of the lunch prices before 4pm (making it a lunch-dinner pit stop), so I followed them to The Bellagio. We paid around 25 bucks, and it was well worth it. There was SO MUCH SELECTION. The meats were great, from the Kobe steak, prime rib, bbq pork, and Mmmm, my fave of the night, BBQ ribs. Also, there was a huge selection of seafood, from the crab legs, shrimp, and all types of fish (sea bass, salmon, tuna, etcera). The fish itself was cooked a bit too much, so it was dry, but after eating the mussels, I was satisified. They also had an ETHNIC section, with Chinese and Japanese food. I don't normally touch "Chinese" food at buffets, so I didn't this time, but saw they even carried duck! I tried the sushi bar they had.. they even had HAND ROLLS... which was an okay quality grade.. but man, for a buffet? it was pretty worth it. My absolute favorite part of the buffet was the DESSERT. Yes, you're not going to find the best amazing desserts, but the SELECTION was insane. My fave was a hazelnut chocolate mousse cake and the carrot cake. There were cheesecakes, cookies, more cakes, ice cream, sorbet, lemon bars, eclairs, etcera. I had to get a coffee at the end to eat with all my desserts. Service was good as well, as every time I got up, the waiter took my plate away. Also, he was good on keeping my drinks fully supplied, which I appreciated. I just raised my hand, and he came instantly. Good job on the service. I would have given this place 5 stars, based on the meat, but the seafood was not the greatest, nor the sushi. Nonetheless, probably one of the best buffets I've been to! Next time, I'll go for brunch.
