Best Buffets

Here I would like to share with you my top seven favorite buffets in Las Vegas.

1. La Village Buffet as Paris hotel.

I have to say that this buffet is total class, great service and the best French cuisine I have ever tasted. They also have a great seafood selection and as far as I know are the only buffet that serves Bananas Foster for dessert! With great atmosphere I give it a 10/10

2. Spice Market Buffet at Aladdin.

This buffet has a similar feel to the buffet at paris but more fake jewels on the walls ?. The food is great but I have to say the selection was not as exciting as at paris. However it really is great value and situated in the middle of some of the best shopping in Vegas, who can complain!

3 Todai Japanese Seafood Buffet at Aladdin.

If you love Japanese then this is the place for you. More sushi then you can poke a stick at! They seem to have the most fresh and best selection of sushi I have seen in a very long time. Other buffets really could afford to learn from this great place.

4.French Market Buffet at Orleans

I really liked this buffet. It was clean with a great selection of French foods on show. Judging by the size of some of the patrons of this place they could not either! If you are over that way and looking for a not too expensive lunch or dinner option then this is place for you.

5. Village Seafood Buffet as Rio

If you love seafood then you will be in heaven! Well worth the wait for the bus ride to Rio (you catch it a Bally’s) the seafood here is the best in Vegas. The ironic thing is that I can’t eat seafood, but I was taking my Mom out so I wanted to make sure she had a great night. Despite not being able to eat much of the buffet, I was still able to leave with a more then full feeling that left me more then satisfied. By the way Mom says the seafood was fantastic!

6. The Buffet at Bellagio at Bellagio

For a place that is as glitzy and showy as the Bellagio I have to say I was a little disappointed at the fare they presented. Don’t get me wrong it was all very nice but perhaps just not at the level you would expect of such a “high roller” establishment. The day I was there they did have lovely duck and I had just lost $100 on blackjack so let’s not mention that again?

7. Garden Court Buffet at Main Street Station.

Ok Ok I know that this place is off the beaten track but really it’s worth the cab ride. This has to be the absolutely best priced, quality buffet in town. It’s cheep and cheerful and boy the food and service was great. Sometimes it’s nice to get off Las Vegas Blvd for a change after all, and you get to avoid all the snooty high rollers that wouldn’t be seen dead here! Save your pennies for the craps table and still leave as full as an egg.

Another victim of the bad economy: FAO Schwarz has closed.

A fixture of Caesars Palace Forum Shops for more than 12 years, the 3-level, 55,000-square-foot toy store shut down at the end of last month.

The 48-foot wooden horse is currently still standing guard, but will eventually be removed.

Sixty employees have been offered positions at local Toys 'R' Us (FAO Schwarz's parent owner) or Babies 'R' Us stores.

Ritz-Carlton Lake Las Vegas to close

On May 2, the Ritz-Carlton Lake Las Vegas will close.

A member of the Five Star Alliance and considered one of the finest hotels in the world, the Ritz-Carlton in Henderson will be shutting down because of a lack of funding by Village Hospitality (Deutsche Bank).

They will also be laying off 400 employees but will try to relocate them to other Marriott properties (which runs the Ritz-Carlton chain).

Lake Las Vegas has been in bankruptcy since July 2008 after the developer defaulted on a loan of $540 million. The Ritz-Carlton, which received the prestigious AAA Five-Diamond award, also filed for bankruptcy.

List of Ten Tallest Buildings in Las Vegas with Photos

Ten tallest Las Vegas buildings

The Stratosphere Tower is 1,149 feet (350 meters) tall, the tallest structure in Las Vegas or the entire state of Nevada. In fact, it's the tallest freestanding observation tower in the United States and the second tallest in the whole Western Hemisphere and it's not even on our list of the ten tallest buildings in Las Vegas, because it's not a building. Neither is the 540 feet (165 meters) Eiffel tower at the Paris Las Vegas.

Our list of tallest consist of buildings that may or may not be inhabited. They must be finished or at least topped our at their designed height and that requirement makes the 735 feet (224 meters) Fountainebleau the tallest building in Las Vegas or Nevada. Las Vegas has more than 160 high rise structures with 40 of those buildings over 400 feet tall. An approved 815 foot tall (248 meters) building to house the World Jewelry Market planned for downtown Las Vegas is on hold until the current economic picture brightens.

Harrah's Las Vegas
Harrah's Las Vegas


Harrah's has released win-loss statements for 2009.

But are you sure you want to see how much you've lost? Those visits to the casino really do add up.

Go to Harrah's and plug in your Total Rewards number and password.

Then click "My TR" and on the left, click "WIN/LOSS STATEMENT."

On the new page, the default year is 2009 but you can also draw from 2005-2008.

Check "I accept the Terms and Conditions" and press "GO" and a PDF will be generated showing all your wins and losses at all Harrah's properties.

Even though we always use our Total Rewards card, we don't think the data is entirely accurate. Your mileage may vary.

It does, however, give you an inkling as to just how expensive gambling can be.

We warned you!
