First of all, I'm nothing if not cheap, so I sympathize with those reviewers who balk at spending $50+ to go to a freakin' buffet\n\n. After all, this is Las Vegas, birthplace of the incredibly cheap chow line, subsidized by gaming revenues and scoffing at the prospect of making money from the lowly food and beverage department. I get it. So, I highly recommend the practice of not eating during the day (easy if you sleep late), and arriving in line ON A WEEKDAY just before 3 p.m. That way, your wait in line will be practically non-existent, you will pay the lunch price (closer to $30), and they start trotting out the higher-end dinner items (I'm talking heated crab legs and lollipop rib eyes) almost immediately.\n\n  Now, imagine that you and a companion went for dinner in a regular restaurant, were served a basket of artisan breads with an assortment of cheeses and homemade jams, then you had a fried calamari appetizer, lobster corn chowder, Caesar salad, prime rib and crab leg combo  with broccoli au gratin and whipped potatoes, and creme' caramel for dessert. \n\nYour date had the oyster shooter, cream of mushroom soup, heirloom tomato caprese salad, saut\u00e9ed halibut with haricots vert and scalloped truffled potatoes, and a nutella crepe with bananas and whipped cream. Assuming you didn't have to be wheeled out, would you squawk if you were presented a bill for a little over $60? I think not. Of course, you have to factor in the major inconvenience of walking 10 feet to get it yourself, but that horrific downside is somewhat modified by the fact that while you're up there anyway, you can help yourself to more Asian, Italian, Mexican, seafood, dessert, etc., options than even the fattest of fatties could ever hope to sample in a week, let alone a couple of hours (in other words, until you're full to the point of physical distress).\n\n And here's the thing: you may not like every single thing you choose, some things may not be prepared exactly to your liking. Don't eat it!!! It's a buffet! Trot yourself up and pick out 15 more things until you stumble across stuff that meets your standards. Make yourself happy! This place is great and deserves 5 stars just for the fact that they have some poor OCD guy back in the kitchen cutting up watermelon and feta cheese and assembling them into those little checkerboard squares.\n\n.And we have had nothing but good experiences with the servers, especially the meat cutter,  who act like they're actually glad you're there. I hate to say it, but it's possible that if you don't like this place, maybe you don't really like food?
