Back when my dad used to take the whole family to Vegas in the early 90s, we “upgraded” from the Motel 6 by McCarran to the Circus Circus. I thought we were living high, especially when he’d take us to the Circus Buffet or the Arby’s that was located in the strip mall next to CC (since demolished). Memories that will last a lifetime.

Same here!!! We used to stay at La Concha Motel (RIP) across the street. Eventually, we "upgraded" to staying at rooms in Circus Circus. I was like 9-10 years old so the CC buffet seemed amazing to me at the time. It was also my first ever buffet so I was in food heaven lol.

This was the GO-TO back in the 80's. I remember my siblings and I so excited when our dad announced we were going to Vegas. That meant Circus Circus arcade and their fabulous buffet (to us kids at least). The food was simple then but oh so delicious. The servers were warm and friendly and treated all the customers like VIP. The manager was always an older man in suit walking around getting to know their guests, super friendly and joked with my parents. THAT was old Vegas which we all miss.

"please PLEASE! don't fail us now beans. You're the only reason they come back. We're all doomed if you don't dazzle them with your secret Bush's recipe" The manager before opening every night frantically pacing back and forth wearing a trench into the kitchen's tile...."Yes...fine ok fine...BUT WHAT ABOUT THE BEEAAANS!

(Too many stuffy travel bloggers out there.) I've never put Vegas near the top of my vacation list before but it's definitely there now. I don't gamble so the place never appealed to me. However, you've shown there's so much more to do besides gambling. I loved your Must-Do, Overrated, and Underrated videos and will definitely keep that stuff in mind when I visit. Thanks Ruby!

My Memaw loved the Circus Circus. She'd venture out to slots of fun and occasionally to the Stardust. She went so often for so many years that she never paid for anything, she knew all the change girls, the cleaning ladies. The hotel was great for her to take me because I could go to the circus, to the midway, the pool, and it was like a big family. My Pepaw retired from the airlines (we flew cheap) and I remember the first time flying to Vegas they still had a smoking section onboard (I had lots of questions about this at age 4!) All the food I ever ate was ok, but I was 15 the last time I went.

To this day it was the most terrible restaurant I’ve ever been to. Even the grated cheese in the salad bar looked inedible. I think I maybe just had croutons because everything else had been unappetizing. My mom got so mad at my dad for taking us there I’m pretty sure our family left to go somewhere else. I’m pretty annoyed to see they’re charging so much now for food that is still pretty bad. I’d rather pay a little more to get the breakfast at the Wynn, fill myself up on that delicious food, and then just not eat much the rest of the day. Crazy that one is only $8 more.

Over the years we only ate at three buffets in Vegas; the Rio, the Bellagio and the Wynn when all three were new hotels. This was back in their glory days, cost was $50, very expensive at that time. King crab legs, Prime Rib, all the very best! Those were the days my friend…

Happy New Year to you and the mister. I love your point of view on all things Vegas. I think the buffets have made people expect less and less for their money. If you spent $30 a person at Denny's, you'd get a lot more bang for your buck. It looks as though Circus is re-purposing left-over food and double or triple frying to "freshen" it up. Buffets get a bad wrap cuz they're wrapping them badly, does that make sense?🤔😄 Hope y'all have a great year 🥂🎰🙋🏼‍♂️

As a Las Vegas local for over 30 years everyone in town used to call this buffet the "ol' slurp and burp", or "all you can puke!" It was that universally hated. 🤣

Good work, Ruby. From what I could see, and my experience in the industry, Most of what they serve they only heat or prep. It comes out of a can, box or bag. At the better buffets (Paris, Rio, Caesars, etc.) they actually produce the dishes so they can keep it fresh, adjust the taste and use the large professional banquet kitchens & bakeries on site. Most all that comes in on a truck from a distributer for "heat & eat". Even the cakes & pies. Sad since they used to do better but they've raised prices, cut cost and reduced staff post covid.

How things have changed. It didn’t really look like it was worth $30. Last time I visited Vegas was in the early 1990’s. I saw a show called Crazy Girls which was popular at that time. It included a delicious huge dinner buffet It was at the Riviera Hotel. Buffet and show all inclusive was $12 lol

I know this video is pretty old but I just found the channel and I love it. I don’t know if this is your intention but I like the fact that you review and do the things that 90% of the people who visit Las Vegas do. You eat at regular places, and stay in regular rooms. I appreciate that, thank you. But the real reason I posted was to let you know why the meatballs and the taco meat tasted like breakfast sausage. If they grind meat for their kitchen to make meatballs etc then you will probably want to know: The sausage and probably bacon that didn’t get eaten at breakfast were almost definitely thrown in the grinder with the beef. As a butcher, I can tell you this was a very common practice in restaurants and supermarkets until the very early 90’s. Some shady places probably still do this. Circus circus is definitely one of them.

I’ve had fond memories of this place. My mom, her husband and myself all decided to eat at the Circus Circus buffet. They said it was the best buffet in town 30 years ago. Oh boy, everything we put on our plate tasted horrible. It was uneatable. When we left the restaurant, we were still hungry and went to eat at In and Out Burger.

Yeah, I had same experience when going to New Orleans. People kept saying certain places were awesome, but damn, lot of it was greasy, too spicey (I mean WAY SPICEY ... like volcano spice, because I don't mind some spice), and fatty pieces of meat. I couldn't believe it. So, we ate at Burger King there most nights, and it was one of best BK's that I've ever eaten at. Mind-blowingly good BK, and it was even cheaper too.

I ate there about 8 years ago for $12. I was very happy with that price for the type of food that was there. For $60 for two people, you're better off to go to a hot table in a Mexican grocery store for $15. I mean, a buffet is supposed to give you all the choices, but the problem is they all can't be fresh and the people who go to a Las Vegas buffet typically keep eating the fries and pizza. I'm Canadian and there is not a lot of Mexican food up here, so I'll explore the real stuff and leave the decoy stuff for the other people . My favorite is the Aria buffet. Nice quiet cafeteria like environment. Quiet. Decent price. I do my patented "Breakfast Sneak" and show up at 10:56, eat breakfast items and then lunch items. Lat time I did that was on a voucher I got from Vdara for even more savings. I don't do dinner buffets. You stuff yourself and don't have the rest of the day to walk it off and are uncomfortable for the evening. Breakfast sneak and then a lighter dinner meal like Earl of Sandwich and maybe a snack later. Your first time you go to Las Vegas, you want to visit every buffet and then you realize you are uncomfortable as hell and can't even bend over.
