 | Las Vegas Circus Circus Buffet Reviews | 1 - 10 of 16 |  |
Our first morning and we wanted breakfast, the Circus Circus was only 5 minutes walk away and so we decided to give it a try. Wish we hadn'nt bothered.
I think the breakfast was about $9.50 and you dont mind paying for something that is hot and edible, this was neither.
Would'nt go there again. Leave a Comment

Fuming about this hole...
Wouldn't normally bother writing about a bad restaurant, but this place got me furious. Mostly 'cos my bible of American eateries, Zagat, had praised the place so highly. (Along with nearly every other critics guide that kissed butt on the proudly displayed certificates).
Reserved a lunch through the ever fabulous opentable.com.
When we arrived there was already a queue out of the door with people who hadn't booked... "suckers" I thought as we strolled past.
Sure enough our name was down, but we were asked to wait in the bar area whilst they prepared the table. And we waited. And waited. And they've got a funny idea of time in this place as I kept getting told "2 minutes".
And waited.
After sitting for 45mins in the stinky dark pit that is Circus Circus, The Steakhouse, we were finally ushered to our table by an apologetic waiter (no doubt worried his 20% tip was evaporating).
Now it got a little weird at this point. Basically you don't order food, but go up to a buffet and heap food onto your own plate. Unfortunately it was all a little "school dinner" for my liking. Everything was soggy, steamed beyond recognition, and had turned a funny grey hue - may have been the lighting. At the end of this sorry parade was a pitiful excuse for a carvery which consisted of a leg of ham (looked & tasted reconditioned, even though it wasn't) and rib-eye beef, which was haemorrhaging blood, surrounded by an inch thick layer of blubber fat, mmm, delicious...
The steak - remember this is called Steakhouse - comes as a second course. You have the choice of about 3 types. We went fillet and got something the size of my big toe. Fortunately, it tasted just as good.
Definitely the oysters from the first course. Shrivelled dry and tasting like an old used condom... probably. Had an unusual after-taste that left us feeling sick for the rest of the day.
On the plus side, they try to drown you in mediocre champagne (included) throughout the meal, so if you do go, just make the most of that. They even forced 2 beakers of it into our hands as we stood up to leave.
Everyone who works here is an incompetent fool, from the waddling receptionist, over excitable waiter, pointless maitre d' (who meanders aimlessly around the restaurant), to the chef who shouldn't even be in charge of spooning dog food.
The barman didn't understand me when I asked for a beer. Had to ask 3 times, before spelling the word B..E..E..R.. Even then he looked clueless, before the penny finally dropped, and he repeated "Oh beeeeerr".
Would have thought he was joking, were it not for the fact this was the 16th time on the holiday we had experienced a serious "communication malfunction".
The greatest steakhouse in Las Vegas... if it's your first meal after a 25 year stretch in an Iranian prison.
This place seriously dented our image of perfect American eateries (and service). Leave a Comment Theme: SteakhousePrice: US$31-40 » Currency ConverterComparison: less expensive than averageAddress: Circus CircusDirections: On the Strip. Avoid at all costs.

Try one of the buffets in one of the large hotels. For approximately 10 dollars you can eat as much as you want. Usually great variety of food and deserts. I once ate at the "Circus Circus" Casino Resort. The buffet was awesome. Leave a Comment Theme: OtherComparison: less expensive than average

Too many to try yet to pick a favorite. Circus-Circus has the largest buffet of anyplace we have ever seen. All those we have tried are very reasonably priced. Hard Rock is AWFULLY LOUD though! Leave a Comment Theme: Other

We had dinner at a casino. I think it was at Circus Circus. It's the one with the circus theme if you didn't know or couldn't figure out.
They have buffets set up. The food was decent but there wasso many people there that it was a long wait before you could get back to the buffet. Leave a Comment Theme: OtherAddress: 2880 S. Las Vegas Blvd. Las Vegas, NV 89109Other Contact: (702) 734-0410 or (800) 634-345

Cheap and cheerful. I think it was about £4.00 when I went for all you can eat. We did not eat anything else until the evenings!

The cheap all-you-can-eat-buffet at the Circus Circus looked to good to be true. Well, it was! Horrible food and no ambience. But, what can you expect foor 10 dollars a head. Don't eat here, unless you are really broke.
If you have to eat anything here, stay on the safe side and eat bread and desserts. Theme: AmericanPrice: less than US$10 » Currency ConverterComparison: least expensiveAddress: In Circus CircusDirections: On the Strip

Features typical American food like fried chicken, mash potatoes, macaroni and cheese, etc. Its also pretty bland. Basically the taste is comparable to the price. You pay cheap, you get cheap food.
