The MGM Grand Buffet: The Ultimate Food Gamble

[@AllYouCanVegas]

Thoughts on the MGM Grand Buffet? Would you eat here?

[@kartofle123]

NO. It looks overpriced for what you got and the quality. I would rather spend more and go to a much better buffet or spend less and probably get something similar to the MGM.

[@petrus666love]

I’d rather eat my socks 😮

[@SuperGolgotha]

Probably not, it seems it has an AAA price for C+ food. If/when I visit I want the best food and experience and this falls short.

[@426Hemiroadrunner]

Yes I would it looks good. I enjoy your videos very much Derek and Catherine

[@bolingbrookdad2569]

Still better than Mom's cooking, with a lot more choice; swinging by Bellagio's and I would pay a lot more for the same ingredients. And remember, MGM is Family Friendly, if you know what I mean.

[@alexchainey.]

The level of courtesy and manners between this couple is so endearing!

[@markmower6507]

If only other people could learn from their great example, I am not going to hold my breath though...

[@agirly1503]

That's so true!

[@everhirstseyt2667]

You guys could film a game of "stuff a buffet takeout box" next time, and see who makes up a better box! Sounds fun!

[@alansmith7699]

It's always a great time hanging out with the two of you.Take Care! Another episode.Well Done!

[@stack544]

I have to be honest, a good omelette for $80.00 as the high point of the meal I think I would pass. But it’s always nice to see you and Catherine. Although the deserts are a plus but I don’t think that I would be able to eat $80.00 of desserts ,but I would try!!!

[@SmoothdeSmooth]

The take out plate option is a game changer! Like getting a sample plate of the buffet! 😊

[@ohdogwow2]

Yup, just walk it over to the food court area for seating. In my middle age I can't do four or five plates anymore anyway.

[@mattdaaamon]

@@ohdogwow2 I bet I could stuff that thing full with 5 plates worth

[@miamiron]

@@mattdaaamon My high school geometry would definitely come into play while packing those take out containers

[@RogueStatusX]

It's really not tho cause 98% of the food in that buffet is trash. If you loaded it with prime rib, turkey and ham i guess that would work lmao

[@markmower6507]

For Reals, I just want one good stacked plate and I am good...

[@scottmcwave9479]

Not for me but it’s fun to watch you guys! Great show!

[@jenniferbaragar8254]

Classy coverage of Sysco food! Catherine, you look especially beautiful today!

[@AllYouCanVegas]

lol

[@RogueStatusX]

you aint lying them fried shrimp are direct from Sysco lmao

[@Southernman-ud4jl]

more of a simple buffet on a budget ...love it 👍

[@VegaswithShin]

The $17.99 take away box is actually melting my brain right now. Is this exclusive to MGM? I would totally take advantage of this as an option at other buffets. Amazing find!! Thanks Derek and Catherine!

[@AllYouCanVegas]

Crazy, right?!

[@robinsonstegard538]

@@AllYouCanVegas I think the take out box at as many buffets as possible is a good idea. You paid $40 for $25-$30 quality food. I would not go there. Sorry.

[@justinbartley5245]

Hell will freeze over before i'd pay $80 for two albeit decent fare💯

[@Mr.Helper.]

@@robinsonstegard538is this buffet not worth it ?

[@mannyc215]

We love ❤️ watching you guys every time you post, they are excellent my grandma loves your husbands expressions when he makes his face eating his food 😂🤣😂….. We hope to see you there when we arrive there tomorrow for 2 whole weeks…..

[@lu_to_the_wanna]

Oh Catherine, you should have grabbed the fresh pizza! I have never thought the MGM's buffet was worth it, even 10 years ago. Thanks for taking us along with you.

[@stever7157]

In my opinion, it wasn’t worth it 20 years ago either. I went in 2001 and 2002 and it paled in comparison to many other buffets at the time.

[@joshualaine8022]

This drove me insane

[@markmower6507]

The Insanity...

[@harrybabener]

I was screaming! The pepperoni just came out right in front of you!!😂

[@jordan8788]

I love how you guys are always positive even when we can tell you aren’t loving it!

[@s.jensen1492]

Indeed a polite and always honest review. Much better options out there. Thanks guys!

[@DeeEss_on_YT]

A polite yet real and honest review

[@cBadArsBiker1579]

I still like Derek's facial expressions when he eats the food. You are a very nice couple - congratulations!

[@seanfernandez3970]

The takeout was a deal! But almost nothing about that buffet excited my taste buds. It would be a pure game of trying to stuff my stomach to get my money's worth. Polite as ever though you just say it's fine. Lol. One of my favorite times of the day is eating a meal while I watch one of your videos. The buffets are my favorite but I wouldn't mind seeing you both at a Fondue restaurant

[@comiketiger]

Bangers are a traditional Irish dish. Usually served with a gravy and mashed potatoes. Not considered a breakfast sausage as we know it here. The brisket certainly didnt look tough. The best buffets ive eaten would refill a pan before it was half empty. Kept it very fresh. Would love to eat a huge buffet like this sometime. God bless all here.

[@stevegant7286]

That's how you do it, at a great Buffet, pace yourself and try everything! Looks delicious!

[@rongendron8705]

I haven't been to Las Vegas since 2003 & can't believe these new "buffet" prices & this is just for "Brunch" & not "Dinner" prices, since it closes at 3 p.m.! In years past, I remember paying as little as $3.99 for a lunch buffet, at Circus Circus & no more than $7.99 for a lunch buffet at the Golden Nugget! If these are average Las Vegas prices now, you can "KEEP IT'!

[@vggalbraith5076]

When I hear that the salad is the way to go and the shrimp is crunchy at an 80 dollar buffet that's all I need to know.

[@harryyarrow4110]

Thanks for your profile at MGM. Everything looks delicious.💛

[@jnayj5602]

Love y’all channel. Glad you were able to finish off strong! Keep being authentic!💜

[@tovielu5461]

Very good info for anyone wants to take out. $17.00 is not bad.

[@joanant8800]

I was at this buffet 6 days ago. My advice? Run as fast as you can to any other buffet in Vegas.

[@SuperGolgotha]

I love the videos you two make. I'm using them for research, someday I'm going to go to Vegas and go to all the best food spots.

[@AllYouCanVegas]

Thanks, Jonathan!

[@IMStella0723]

Thank you for another great video, Derek and Catherine, and for your honest opinion. I think it's definitely not worth the money 😕

[@markawesome439]

I think the expression on your face tells me to eat elsewhere thanks for the honest opinions

[@WOOF95]

I have to say that I think the Bacchanal Buffet at Caesars Palace is still #1.. The omelet looks like it was the best of your visit. Great video!

[@jasondavis6438]

Love that you guys give an honest review…you are a couple that vary much on taste and as I’ve watch you over the last 16 months …i feel like i can taste and experience though your pallet…much enjoy the channel even through your move outside Las Vegas as your home …much love and respect to you both

[@markmower6507]

Las Vegas Buffet Sushi?! Nah, that's gonna be a Hard Pass from Me, Hahahahahahahaha 😂!!!

[@annadrino4937]

A video on to-go buffet would be awesome!!!

[@kennethw7831]

Think the shrimp is just boxed frozen shrimp from the store

[@SandySmith-ww6gq]

... and carelessly over fried. Sad.

[@jamesbael6255]

You mean they don't send staff to gather fresh shrimp from the notoriously shrimp filled desert plains surrounding Las Vegas? Weird.

[@Lawomenshoops]

@@jamesbael6255 it’s not hard to get fresh shrimp to Vegas, make a batter and then fry it.

[@kennethw7831]

​@@jamesbael6255 there's a thing called a plane to fly in fresh shrimp and hand breaded and then fried. Guess your used to Mrs Paul's lol

[@jamesbael6255]

​@@kennethw7831 even "fresh" shrimp is frozen on the boat you uneducated poor.

[@westcruz3878]

Guys like always great video’s 🇺🇸👍🏻

[@leslieleslie6203]

Glad y’all went to this buffet. I’m going back to Vegas in June and will not be eating at MGM Grand Buffet. There are too many other buffets and restaurants to enjoy.

[@lgempet2869]

In this case, have to say the basic/normal look of these desserts is MUCH more appealing to me than the super-fancy ones found at some buffets w/a combination of ingredients I’m often unfamiliar with & simply wouldn’t eat.

[@brendacerwinske5985]

I think it would be fun to invite viewers to eat with you and judge a meal 😊

[@AllYouCanVegas]

Great idea!

[@lic2kil007]

MGM has as always had good buffet for over two decades, breakfast and dinner. Miss Rio's buffet.

[@petrus666love]

Nice too see MGM have decided too give up on the Buffett 😂😂😂

[@dianalong2024]

Hi you guys, I always watch your channel. I always value your opinion. For me... I think the food was not kept full or fresh looking!!! And the choices were thin. I'm voting no on this buffet. Sorry ...I think there's better out there. Thanks for showing this video 😂👏

[@johnbacon1854]

I think thats the sort of place you make it your own.... The omlette looked great, I love salad, so defo a good spread there. Some of the meat looked ok. As it was Brunch I think the omlette with Suasage and Bacon. Mash potato might work with that too......... some of the desserts looked ok. When you think about, given the soft drinks etc are also included. You go to a burger joint, and you can spend easily 20 bucks for a meal per person if your hungry. So if you factor in refills etc 40 bucks would be an average price. I was disapointed not to see Fried Chicken.....

[@loumarhorn4682]

I love a good salad 🥗😋💕 🍷🍷🍷🍷❤it...

[@ronniedelaplain6722]

I remember when I had a buffet $19.99 in Hawaii was to expensive wow $40 dollars a crack I couldn’t eat enough food for the price.

[@Jackie-up6pl]

For the price, it’s a decent buffet… thank you ❤

[@MK-xh3cs]

It looks and sounds like by your reviews, that not much has changed in the Vegas buffet scene, except the price! My husband and I were last there 15 yrs ago. Prices then were upwards of $21.00 for the same food. So, I guess the price of the buffet makes sense.

[@mozer1713]

That ham looked real bad !

[@jamesprior2496]

I was thinking the moron should have brought out a fresh ham! For that price you do not serve your guests table scraps!

[@neilyaremchuk6798]

My kids: Dad, can we go to the MGM buffet? Me: Sure. My kids: (eat only cut fruit and a bowl of cereal) Me: Why do I even bring them on vacation with me?

No words can save that omelet casserole. lol

[@TheIkaika777]

It’s amazing that they charge $80 for two people for a $9.95 buffet.

[@jamesprior2496]

EXACTLY! And maybe $14.95 when carving prime rib and/or brisket. (I believe you and I are thinking 1990s prices!) 😂

[@TheIkaika777]

@@jamesprior2496, Perhaps we are but $40 a person is way over the line for what was shown especially when the food is dried out and tough. I’m thinking $12.95 per person max with Prime Rib/Brisket.

[@jamesprior2496]

The true test for a good chef is the ability to create a perfect omelet!

[@glendamcdaniel9894]

Wish I had those sharp carving knives. Everything looks delicious. $17.99 for takeout is pretty good. I like the hand roll sushi because I like the nori.

[@markmower6507]

I would just Hang Out at the Carving Station... I wouldn't leave...

Food looked OK. It didn’t look like it was warm or hot to me. The food look cold, but I don’t know both of you were so kind. It’s hard to read sometimes if you really don’t like some thing, but what I gathered from it is that you could take it or leave it
