Dude. I love buffets. Not actually ingesting the copious amounts of food, but the concept. When I saw that my hotel's buffet had a ridiculous rating on here, I decided to try it.\n\nWe arrived right before the dinner rush and got seated relatively quickly. The ambience and decor is very trendy and stylish yet warm and inviting, just like the rest of the hotel. \n\nAnd the food...ohhh the food. There are so many options it would be silly to list everything I had. There are all types of cuisines and types of food, and many of the dishes are very classy. You won't find any of the \"yella\" from Vegas Vacation here, but dishes with reductions and demi-glaces and shaved fennels and pan seared things and all kinds of other words that make dishes sound fancy. Most of the foods are served in small portion sizes and come in cute, petite skillets that fit in the palm of your hand - this is great because you can sample lots of things instead of dedicating yourself to a huge dish.\nThe desserts section is also mindblowing and diabetes-inducing and I am ashamed to say I tried most of the offerings there with my cohort.\n\nSome of my favorites: Shrimp and grits with gouda; broccoli cheese soup; shepherd's pie (though very very oily); stewed collard greens with ham hock; butternut squash ravioli; ALMOND JOY GELATO!; red velvet chocolate chip cookie.\n\nThis is borderline 5-star territory for me, and you should definitely go. But the crab legs were pretty dry, the pork shoulder was dry as well, and not many dishes COMPLETELY blew my mind. Then again, nothing was below \"okay\" status. \n\nExcept maybe the sushi.\n\nBut who the hell goes to Vegas for sushi?
