We were there on Friday. We liked it. I like Hawaiian foods. Thank you for sharing!

[@sarahjean317]

Greetings Ruby. I have and I love it. Before the great plague of 2020-21 I would stay in downtown and the Main Street Station Buffet was always one of my favorite stops. I love the decor and the food. I am so glad your review was positive and I am coming out in March 2022. Thanks for a great review and take care girl.

[@Gracieemerson5703]

Yes! Years ago we asked someone working in a different casino if their buffet was good and they totally recommended Main Street Station buffet instead! We've been frequenting it ever since!

[@shelbyherman12]

I personally have not, but there are so many options in Vegas it sure helps to have input before choosing one!

[@tiad2125]

Will you PLEASE do a video on best hotels on the strip that are under or around 100$ a night With or without the resort fees. Going in January during the week so I know they're cheaper weekdays. But want to know your opinion on what ones are the better ones to stay at..stayed at one of the Luxor towers a little while ago and it wasn't dirty or anything just different I guess lol

[@Neil_S.]

You know Ruby! i think/believe in 2022 you are reaching a HUGE KZbin milestone, with a well deserved platinum plague. It's time you are recognized for your creative ideas, content, & hard work.

[@TravelRuby]

Thanks Neil, that means a lot :)

Well said neil

You mean silver play button. But eventually Ruby will get the Ruby play button. She has to , they named it after her.

[@Oheeeoh]

I ate there about 6 weeks ago. It was my first Vegas buffet since COVID and I was pretty impressed. Thank you for the fun video, Ruby!

[@richdouglas2311]

I was living in Las Vegas when Main Street opened. The buffet back then was the best bargain in town. Yes, there were others more opulent--MGM, Rio, Mirage. But Main Street had the best bang for the buck. Nice to see they're bringing it back again.

[@trulahn]

3:45 Portuguese sausage, scrambled egg plus rice is a very common fast food break fast plate in Hawaii. Many of the Downtown Vegas hotels (especially Boyd's properties) cater to Hawaiian crowds so it's good to see that they have it for their breakfast buffet.

[@JohnS-jf2oj]

During EDC weekend. I came here before heading to EDC day 2 and boy I left happy, full, and without hunger that lasted till the next day!

[@maukasara808]

Tons of Hawaiians go there. In Hawaii, everyone knows this is a really great value and tasty. Glad you came and checked it out.

Been to Main St Station several times. Definitely a great value. Last time I was there they did have several types of fish and seafood for dinner.

[@MrStockoHMK]

Hey Ruby. I’m coming to Vegas from the U.K. for my first ever trip to the states in August and your videos are so unbelievably helpful. I’ve even got a few pages of “Ruby’s tips” in the little notebook I’ve started. So a thousand thank you’s bringing a bit of Vegas to me before I go. I was wondering, do you have any tips for someone who’s coming to Vegas on their own? I’m in town for a convention but will have a few days either side to explore but I’ll be on my own unless I can make some friends while I’m there. Have you made any videos specifically for solo travellers or do you plan on doing any at some point? Thank you again.

[@austinjohnson2797]

Always enjoyed this buffet, but it used to be like $14 for lunch just a couple years ago. Crazy how much things have increased in price in a short time.

That Buffet used to be one of my Top 3 Buffets! They were the only one that had Ox Tail Stew...delicious!😋😋😋😋😋😋

[@atpdx]

For whatever it's worth my Dad owned a buffet throughout my childhood but I hit this recently and it was surprisingly quite solid. Clean, the hostess came frequently and was nice, the selection was more than I expected and everything was very nice. Nothing bland whatsoever. Seriously, only negative was an eclair that was very very hard. Wouldn't even deduct points though. Definitely the buffet spot on Fremont, will be back for sure.

[@Akit317]

I've ate there multiple times when I was given food credit for overnight stays at The Cal. Since The Cal doesn't have a buffet, it was just an easy walk over the covered bridge to Main Street.

[@stevenscalco5598]

your food videos always make me hungry. well done.

[@kathrynl9503]

We went to the Main Street Station buffet a few weeks ago. What I noticed on your video was that you missed the best part of the breakfast which is the omelette bar. You can go have them make an omelette for you and I had it and it was excellent! Another item that I also tried was the pork chop and it was excellent! The only problem we encountered was some of the food was a little cold. The desserts that we tried left a little to be desired but maybe they have improved them since we have been there. We only found one that we liked and I can’t remember which one it was. We were wondering how good it would be because of the price but all in all we thought it was pretty good. We always enjoy your videos Ruby. My favorite video of yours was the opening of Resorts World. You did an excellent job!.

[@judymcguire9363]

AND " a bunch of syrup"! love it

[@jensmith7331]

8:38 it’s beef but you may have meant that. Isn’t this buffet known for its Polynesian/Hawaiian food? I loved the kalua pork & beef stew (pretty authentic)

[@ThisOldMan65]

This buffet has always been my favorite before the shutdown. I have not been back since. Do they still cook eggs to order? You use to be able to get omelets made to order also.

[@TravelRuby]

They still have eggs to order and omelets, yes!

Ruby, my ex-girlfriend and I used to eat at this buffet all the time. We loved it!

[@dagersheath1]

We were there last month three times and yes the buffet is very good. You should have got the omelet to order at the omelet station, it was really good and they pack it full of whatever you want. Ya this buffet is very worth what you pay.

I've eaten at the Garden Court buffet. It's a good deal. The food is good but not amazing. The dining room is really pretty and spacious. It's the best buffet downtown.

[@portlandrestaurants]

One of the first useful things I ever read on the internet in the late 90s was a review of Vegas buffets by a local. I remember he liked the "station" buffets and said that is where the locals went. There are quite a number of them. I wonder what the term "station" means if anything.

[@emailuser8668]

Station Casinos has 8 hotel/casinos in the Las Vegas area that many locals and value conscious tourists visit, pre Corona virus they all had affordable buffets. Since 2020 Station's Casinos which is owned by Red Rock gaming have eliminated buffets as a cost savings measure.

[@kevindempsey5133]

Hi Ruby! Love your videos! Went to Main St Station buffet this week on a visit. We were disappointed. The corned beef hash was the best item there ( I believe it came out of a can) The mock loco had egg shells in it😮 Maybe we caught them on a bad day. Keep up the great work!

[@24marcg24]

Honestly I wouldn't be surprised if I never went and ate at a buffet again after the whole covid thing. I was never a fan, I always loaded up on the wrong stuff early and could never eat very much anyways. May I suggest Ruby that you try a "happy hour" angle and find the best ones on the strip? I think a lot of places have great happy hours and not too many videos on it....just a suggestion. Enjoy your videos regardless thank you.

[@tiad2125]

Can you do a short video on the hold fees from different hotels? It's something that's usually overlooked since everyone is focused on the resort fees. But I've heard it can range from a flat fee the whole time like 150-200$ or a daily hold from 100$-400$ every night your staying. I think it's a big thing to include especially if you're using a debit not credit card cause that can totally cut into your budget without even really thinking about it. I know you guys have stayed at majority of the hotels so it'd be interesting to know what ones do a flat fee hold and what ones do a nightly fee hold.

[@rogeeeferrari]

In the end it doesn't matter does it ? You get charged if you spend, nothing more...

[@markmckinley5989]

@@rogeeeferrari It matters to those folks who do not use a credit card and have limited funds. I find it a bad idea to use debit card since they carry no protection, but some folks think different and perhaps live beyond their means.

[@AtomicPunx]

@@rogeeeferrari Or if your cc only has say $250 on it It would be good to know it will be on hold...so not to expect to use it... or yes for those who must use debit.
