It pains me somewhat to hand out 2 stars to this place because I do like the food and have had two enjoyable meals here, but I feel somewhat scammed, so I don't think I'd want to go back because this makes me uncomfortable. Will start with the scam, have been to Pampas a couple of years ago, it was great. So recently a groupon came up for sale and I figured I'd buy it. $100 for $50 in food, how could I go wrong? Well I found out. Pampas artificially inflates their retail prices and then offers discounts through various venues (Ticket for tonight, groupon, people handing out flyers in the mall) to make people think they are getting a good deal. So in the end you just end up paying about what you'd pay at any other restaurant....as long as you use your coupon (I feel for the poor people that don't utilize some sort of coupon at Pampas). For example: Seafood buffet - $48 Meat buffet - $44 In Vegas you can find far better values for much less than that, or even splurge and eat somewhere higher end for about the same price. So I guess with Groupon I expect to get some sort of bargain or deal, and I felt like i didn't here. So I feel like I've been taken advantage of. Thus I must rate this place as two stars. The food is really quite good. The meat tastes delicious and the salad bar is quite good. The service is OK, the waiter was actually the same guy for both visits. He has a very thick accent and is somewhat difficult to understand, but he's very good at his job. They didn't seem to have much of a clue when it came to helping us with our baby, so if you have a little one you may want to steer clear.
