Your trip to Las Vegas won’t be complete without making at least one stop at a scrumptious Las Vegas Buffet. Almost every hotel in the city has a buffet to add to its list of restaurant or dining options – all you need to do is find one that serves something you’ll enjoy while remaining within your budget. It’ll be easier to find good food at a buffet in Las Vegas than you think!
1. The Bellagio
The buffet at the Bellagio is one of the finest in the city. While the buffet restaurant itself looks and feels like nothing more than a buffet, the food will have you believing you are at one of the finest sit-down dinners you’ve ever experienced. The variety of foods leaves something for everyone, including American, Chinese, Japanese, and Italian dishes that will positively delight your taste buds. Many of the buffet stations include chefs who will make sure your food is prepared fresh while you wait.
The buffet is a reasonable $13.95 for breakfast, $17.95 for lunch, or $25.95 for dinner Monday through Friday. Your weekend cuisine will run anywhere between $22 and $35 depending on the meal you attend. There’s no dinner buffet on Sunday!
2. Caesar’s Palace
Cafe Lago is situated comfortably in Caesar’s Palace. Head on over between gambling or shows to experience a relaxing Italian cafe atmosphere in a beautifully designed lake setting. The buffet is open 24 hours for a la carte, but has full breakfast, lunch, and dinner buffets daily.
The average price at the buffet ranges from $14.99 to $21.95 during the week. Sunday brunch is $21.99, but if you’d like unlimited champagne with your meal the price jumps to $31.99.
3. Aladdin
The Spice Market Buffet at the Aladdin is one of the most unique we’ve seen. Dishes come from a variety of countries, including the Middle East, Mexico, and Italy. Feast on a myriad of seafood creations or delight in the juicy flavors of a tender strip steak or beautifully cooked pork loin. The Spice Market Buffet may be new, but it’s already gaining a reputation as one of the best in the area.
Prices range from $12.00 to $23.99 during the week. Sunday’s brunch is a flat $20.99.
4. The Flamingo
The Paradise Garden Buffet at the Flamingo is a great destination for more than just the food. Those lucky enough to get a seat near the window will be entertained by a view of the inhabitants of the wildlife preserve, owned by the Flamingo, that can be seen below. While the variety of cultures may not be present on the buffet, the food choices are plenty and it’s just plain good.
Prices range from $12.95 up to $17.95 depending on the time of day you visit.
5. Paris Las Vegas
Le Village Buffet, at the Paris Las Vegas, welcomes you with a warm French village atmosphere. While you’ll find traditional buffet foods on the menu, you’ll notice that quite a few have a little bit of a French twist to them. The food choices come from the five regions throughout France and there’s bound to be something for everyone. You’ll find seafood, sausage, duck, quiche, cheese, fruits and veggies, and – of course – fresh French bread. Don’t forget to save room for dessert.
The buffet ranges in price from $12.95 up to $24.95 depending on the meal and day of the week. The Sunday morning champagne brunch is $24.95.
6. Rio Las Vegas
The Rio Las Vegas proudly presents the Carnival World Buffet, a favorite for those who are traveling for children. Picky children will be pleased to find macaroni and cheese, hot dogs, and milkshakes on the buffet lines, while adults will be thrilled to see more mature food choices. This bar is well known for its delicious variety of Thai, Chinese, Brazilian, and Vietnamese food choices as they appear along side more traditional American, Mexican, and Italian foods. If you thought your dinner choices were bountiful, wait until you see the dozens upon dozens of dessert choices!
Buffet meals here range from $14.99 to $23.99 depending on the meal and day. A champagne brunch is offered on both Saturday and Sunday at a cost of $23.99.
7. Monte Carlo Resort and Casino
The buffet at the Monte Carlo Resort and Casino isn’t one of the most creative, but this is the place to go if you want to get the most bang for the buck while sticking to more traditional food choices. This buffet is best for breakfast, and their breakfast options are particularly mouth-watering, including crepes made to melt in your mouth and an incredible vanilla French toast.
Buffet prices range from $11.29 up to $17.15 during the week. Sunday’s champagne brunch is still a very reasonable $18.22.
All of the buffets in Las Vegas are ready and willing to cater to your dietary needs. I don’t think you’ll find yourself holding an empty plate at any of these amazing dining destinations!

I was happy to see you put Flamingo at #4. It seems to get overlooked in many of the “top buffet” surveys. Just enjoyed it again about two weeks ago and it is as good as ever.
Tons of seafood (including crab and shrimp) plus a nice selection of well-prepared delights. Plus, their desert area is always great.
Bellagio always deserves one of the top spots (if not the top spot) and the Planet Hollywood (former Aladdin) buffet is as amazing as ever.
Wynn and Mirage may have rounded out the top ten, although Wynn is expensive. Worth it for the quality and variety of food you wouldn’t normally find at a buffet but not the place to take someone who just wants lots of basic good food.
Great post!
