Thoughts on the MGM Grand Buffet? Would you eat here?
@kartofle123 Жыл бұрын
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.

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.

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'!

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.....
