You do a great job with your videos! I appreciate your honest descriptions and your videos of the food!

[@LetsEatVegas]

Thank you! We appreciate your support, 😁😁💖💖

[@fredoyang9722]

Love the review. Wicked Spoon is one of my favs. I'm thinking that the meat in the lo mein is lop cheong, Chinese pork sausage, as they appear round, like cutting a sausage. Unusual to see that.

[@LetsEatVegas]

Thank you! You are correct. It had both! Good call.

[@gniathor8325]

Love your video's, your probably by far the only food blogger I know that can describe about the food dishes!!! And your honest opinion and places to go!!! Thank you for another great food eats and reviews!!! Really hope you get more subscribers and views, because you deserve it for what you do!!!

[@LetsEatVegas]

Wow, thank you! So happy you are enjoying the video reviews, 😁. Your feedback means a lot to us. We have a number of new videos coming. Thanks for watching!

[@kims1941]

Excellent thorough descriptions of the food!

[@LetsEatVegas]

Thanks for watching and commenting, 😁

[@markfoster6016]

Too much to try. I’m overwhelmed by how many dishes you sampled. And it all looked so delicious!

[@LetsEatVegas]

Agreed. So much to eat there that we had a hard time not sampling it all.

[@daveleopold4757]

Ate there year 1/2 ago or 2 forgot but it’s not like it used to be Ratings on yelp 3.7 and I agree with that I’m culinary arts student and best buffet is definitely the Bachanal Caesar’s regardless I still enjoy watching your reviews Chef

[@LetsEatVegas]

Thanks for commenting! We have a review of Bacchanal and the reason we didn't feel it's the best right now is due to it's inconsistency. Our first visit was not good. The second visit it was fantastic. We've been to WIcked Spoon many times and it's consistently very good. Bacchanal has the variety, hands down, but maybe they reach too far and can't keep up the high quality all the time. Anyway, that's what we were thinking, 😁😁

[@williamhansen5498]

Great presentation, you do have the voice and inflection for Voice Over.

[@LetsEatVegas]

Wow, thank you, and, thanks for watching and commenting, 😁😁

[@gailsiangco5599]

OK ! The Wicked Spoon Buffet it is !!! Love your Honesty ! We're from San Diego ...we will try it out !

[@LetsEatVegas]

It's so good! I think possibly the most consistent large buffet in Vegas.

[@Elizabeth-Arrington]

I haven't eaten at this buffet yet. I haven't even been inside the cosmopolitan 😂. Thank you for the video and reviews❤. I'll have to check it out.

[@LetsEatVegas]

You're very welcome. And yes, definitely check out Wicked Spoon. It's consistently good!

[@MTQueri]

Used to be the best buffet for me before the pandemic but not anymore. I suggest going to Wynn buffet instead.

[@LetsEatVegas]

We did a review of the Wynn and it was very good. However, we've since been back twice and neither time was it at that same level. So, when the Wynn is on their game, yes, it's probably the best, but it's very inconsistent. Wicked Spoon, however, while fewer options and no Prime Rib, has been very good the 5 times we've been there, so, a very consistent high achiever. I guess it depends on how much of a gambler you are! Thanks for the comment!!

[@lolo2real]

The Casper Milktoast award is hilarious!!! 😂😂 great review

[@LetsEatVegas]

HA! So glad you picked up on that. We debated a bit on that reference, lol. Thanks for watching!

[@daveleopold4757]

Please try batistas hole in wall and do review Also Ruth Chris in my opinion best restaurant in Vegas The bone in filet off the charts

[@LetsEatVegas]

Thanks for the info! I'll look up Batista's. As for Ruth Chris, yes, always a good steak to be had there. Have you tried John Cutter's/Rustic House...also very good steak and a great deal on Sunday's. We have a video about it: studio.kzbin.infom7fgoNjIfmU/edit

[@daveleopold4757]

Battistas hole in the wall 1 block off flamingo towards koval but way before

[@rodalexander5666]

Your descriptive abilities outshine all your competition. You will go long, and far. Have you thought about visiting other cities?

[@LetsEatVegas]

Thank you for the compliment! Venturing off to other cities may happen but not for the foreseeable future. Is there a city you have in mind?

[@vegasnative6394]

No…hands down my favorite and best is Caesars Palace…the Bacchanal…Get reservations!!

[@LetsEatVegas]

Thanks for watching! Bacchanal is fantastic as well. We published a video on it a week or so ago: kzbin.info/www/bejne/a3OWiKybgqiUm5Y

[@jrodtexas2525]

you gotta try the wings with the sauces they provide, tasty

[@LetsEatVegas]

OH, good to know!! Next time we'll check it out. They didn't have them when we went on the review. Thanks for the tip...love to try different sauces!

[@johnkovalicky3389]

Hey so yeah for 45 bucks on the strip that's pretty damn good just concentrate on the good stuff❤❤ the steak lamb and the seafood and all those yummy side dishes

[@LetsEatVegas]

Thanks for watching! Yes, so many items to justify the $45. Just the steak and seafood alone is worth the price of admission, 😋😋🦐🥩

[@jonwharrisofficial]

Wow, I am Hungry again!!

[@LetsEatVegas]

You and me both! 😋

[@tonylee7714]

Wynn's got the best buffet , no question . Wicked Spoon #4

[@LetsEatVegas]

On a good day Wynn is definitely the best, I agree (we have a Wynn Seafood video kzbin.info/www/bejne/bImwoItri9OefbM), but as with most of these buffets they are wildly inconsistent. We went to Wynn 3 months later and the food was MUCH LESS impressive. The same happened to us at The Bacchanal (kzbin.info/www/bejne/a3OWiKybgqiUm5Y) AND Anthony's Prime. However, we've been 4 times to the Wicked Spoon and it has been consistently very good each time. This is why we felt it's the best right now. Anyway, I understand your point of view and agree that if you catch it on a good day, Wynn is the best. Thanks for watching and commenting! Oh, I'm curious. What are the other two buffets you would put before Wicked Spoon?

[@melvinastewart3723]

It’s my favorite.

[@LetsEatVegas]

Half the town would agree with you! We loved it as well and can't wait to go back. Thanks for watching!

[@lindlesj3358]

Great review but Wynn is my favorite love seafood quality not quantity

[@LetsEatVegas]

Thanks for watching! I understand. The Wynn seafood buffet is fantastic. We have a video on it: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bImwoItri9OefbM

[@sunnyboy8644]

No way wicked spoon is the best buffet in Vegas.... not even close....

[@LetsEatVegas]

Thanks for watching!

[@daveleopold4757]

How big of an appetite do you have my goodness 😮I couldn’t eat a third of what you eat ha

[@LetsEatVegas]

HA! You're not the first person to make that observation, lol. 😋

[@daveleopold4757]

I’m Attending culinary school made it past first semester so far It’s grueling and chefs are tough It’s much harder then I ever imagined and scrub the kitchen after every class yikes

[@LetsEatVegas]

Yes, culinary school is a bear. Glad to hear they are having you keep things spotless. That's very important when you go off to a real job. In our restaurant the guests had to walk through the kitchen to get to the bathroom and so we were on full display. The kitchen needed to SHINE or else.

[@TheJayhawker83]

Buffets - just like every other dining choice - are extremely subjective. It all depends on what you personally like and whether the foods you do like constitute a good value for you. In my opinion, Wicked Spoon is not on the same planet as Wynn. I personally don't care for it and found it extremely overrated.

[@LetsEatVegas]

When they're on their game, Wynn is probably the best. But I've been there twice in the last year when it was not good. I've been to Wicked Spoon 5 times and every time it has been consistent AND very good. To me, I prefer the known quantity especially one with overall high quality. Anyway, thanks for the comment...always good to hear all opinions!

[@TheJayhawker83]

@@LetsEatVegas Give MGM Resorts time and they'll make it into something Circus-Circus wouldn't serve.

[@orlandopotts4819]

Can u do the dinner buffet at the Wynn in dec it’s new for the holidays

[@LetsEatVegas]

Absolutely! We never need any arm twisting to get us to go to the Wynn, 😁😁

[@daveleopold4757]

But best buffet for the money agreed not best overall

[@tezzah...]

07:41 "Lamb not at all gamey? " I should hope not, do you even know what you're talking about ??

[@LetsEatVegas]

Yes, I believe I do. If you'd like to learn about gamey lamb here's a good link for you to peruse: www.reddit.com/r/AskCulinary/comments/7qw51v/why_does_lamb_taste_weird_sometimes/ or maybe this link: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aJerl3Wwps-lr6M

[@kaynee8275]

No the Wicked spoon is not good at all. I've been 2x and still don't know why people like it.

[@LetsEatVegas]

I'm sorry to hear you haven't enjoyed yourself at Wicked Spoon. I've been there three times this year and have found it to be nothing short of exceptional. 🤷

[@jeffkramer9511]

Nope. The Wicked Spoon is mediocre at best. The little individual potion cups are a bad idea and the overall quality is meh. I'd rather pay less and enjoy the buffets at South Point and Main Street Station downtown. Don't waste your money.👎

[@LetsEatVegas]

To each his own. The buffets you mention are good for the money, no doubt. You'll enjoy yourself there.

[@octojofoJR]

I think @JeffKramer9511 seems to have missed the point of a review. This restaurant is "meh" according to him? Sounds like he already HAS an opinion, so why is he coming here to listen to the opinions of chefs with Gourmet tastes? The point is, if I go to the Wicked Spoon, I'm going to know where to get the best value for my Buffet dollar! It is quite plainly stated what is worthwhile, what is only so-so, and what is absolutely not to be missed! I can see by the pictures and descriptions what I will agree with... or maybe I should just base my decisions on whatever @JeffKramer9511 has to say! 🙄
