What Does $5.99 Get You At the Rio's Breakfast Buffet?
We heart Isidra
We’re suckers for a bargain, and as we told you yesterday, we signed up to receive texts from the Rio in the hope of saving some dosh. We weren’t overwhelmed by all the offers, but the one that really took our fancy was the chance to try a breakfast at the Carnival World Buffet for only $5.99 (normal price $14.99). Including tax, our total was $6.48.
So on Tuesday we cashed in our voucher, paid up our moneys and entered the buffet. For that price, we were fearing the worst.

Is it Worth Signing Up For Rio's Text Offers?
We were perusing the Harrah’s blog the other day when we came across this post about the text offers the Rio is doing at the moment. Seeing as the last time we wrote about the Rio we were on a bit of a downer, we thought we’d give it a chance to rehabilitate itself. Were these text offers as good as the folk at Harrah’s said they were?
So we texted “Rio” to 227466 as we were told to, and the offers started rolling in. Over three days, we got seven offers sent our way.

Lovely Brunch at Jasmine in the Bellagio, Not Sure About the Dead Duck Though
Let’s hear it for our courage. Despite our grossout at Aria the other week, we braved another buffet this weekend. This time it was the new Fountains Brunch at Jasmine in the Bellagio. It’s a pricy affair - $55 plus tax per person* – so we were hoping for some proper gourmet munchies. And here’s what we found.

Is The Aria Buffet Trying To Put Us Off Our Food?
Our final spoils. Btw, if you’re squeamish, don’t scroll down
OK, hotel folk. We know times are tough in Vegas at the moment. We know you want to get as much money out of us on gamblin’ and shows as you can. But surely you can let us get our own back by stuffing our little tummies when it comes to the buffet?
We ask because, after our first bash at the Aria buffet on Saturday, which set us back a whopping $38 (including tax), we have a sneaking suspicion they might be trying to put us off our food to keep their profit margins up.

Luxor's All-Day Buffet Is Easy on the Wallet, Hard on the Stomach
A buffet highlight was the small-portioned dessert cups (clockwise from top left), including the caramel flan, panna cotta, pistachio crème brûlée and chocolate mousse.
It's hard to find tasty yet affordable eats on the strip, amid all gourmet restaurants helmed by world-famous chefs. The Luxor gives you a cheapie option with its all-day buffet deal—just don't go expecting cuisine anywhere near the caliber of Joël Robuchon.
For $29.99 per adult and $14.99 per kiddie, you can eat at MORE The Buffet at Luxor whenever you want, as many times as you want. The plus is that unlike at most buffets, where you'd feel forced to bust your belt and fill up on the goods to get your money's worth, here you can graze without guilt, since you can always go back to the buffet even if you get hungry an hour after dinner.

More Than You Should Eat: MGM Mirage Hotels Offer All-Day Buffets
Loosen the belt buckles, people: there’s a new opportunity for buffet-lovers to get their money’s worth in Vegas. The latest: all-day meal passes from the buffets at a handful of MGM Mirage properties.
The new promotion, which targets visitors looking to save money on food, started earlier this month in the buffets at MGM Grand, Mandalay Bay, Excalibur, and Luxor. It continues indefinitely.
The deals differ at each property. Some of the specifics:

Eating Just Got Cheaper at The MGM Grand
While we fret over room rates, it looks like those all-you-can-eat buffets aren't going anywhere. The Excalibur introduced a $25 unlimited, all-day pass to its buffet earlier this year and now MGM Grand has followed suit.
The LV Sun reports that for only $29.99 per person, you can eat breakfast, lunch and dinner at the MGM Grand's buffet Monday through Thursday. On the weekends, that bumps up to $39.99 per person.
And over at the Stratosphere, anyone who signs up for the Players Club can get the all day buffet pass for just $19.99. On Sunday mornings and Friday evenings, the price increases to $24.99 per person.
So if you're eating at the all-you-can-eat buffet (all day) and drinking free drinks on the casino floor (all night), then you can no doubt tell your friends you left Sin City "up."

Cravings at The Mirage Should Satisfy Your...Wait For It...Cravings
Confession: Buffets kind of gross us out. We hate waiting in line, we're kind of skeeved out by the "help yourself" and "all you can eat" mentality (for sanitary and dietary reasons) and carrying a tray just takes us back to the utterly horrifying days of high school lunch. But when a buffet scene is done right, we're willing to take a chance.
Cravings at The Mirage was introduced in 2005 with a modern look that continues to impress. In fact, on a recent trip to Cravings we thought the place had just been redone this year. The entrance has gone high-tech with flat-screen TVs lining the entry-way and displaying food porn of seasonal selections. The tables and chairs are simple, modern pieces that would earn the approval of any design snob. But the food is what people come here for and Cravings keeps it interesting.

The Lowdown on Eating 'Til Your Pants Burst
Big appetite, check. Eyes bigger than your stomach, check. Super-stretch pants, check. You’re now ready to chow down at one of Las Vegas’ famed buffets. And whether you’re on a squeaky budget or are looking to high roll with some high-fallutin’ grub, you’re sure to find something to satisfy any craving here.
Off Strip is your best option for a buffet that won’t cause you to break the bank or leave with a bellyache. Texas Station’s Feast Around The World, located in North Las Vegas, offers one of the lowest-priced smorgasbords in town, with daily breakfast from $5.99, lunch from $6.99, and dinner from $9.99 Monday–Wednesday; weekends and “Specialty Nights” (think seafood, seafood, and more seafood, with a few slabs ‘o beef thrown in for good measure) are priced higher.
Make sure to get a boarding pass here Station Casinos Boarding Pass or you’ll have to add two bucks to the price of your meal.
