* I prefer to eat at a buffet restaurant for
breakfast - eggs, fresh fruit, maybe a pastry, lots of coffee. All other
meals, I prefer a sit down restaurant. At buffets you tend to over-eat ALOT -
as you can see by looking at many of the people in those buffet lines. At
buffets I take heaps of food just because it's right there in front of me and
I have absolutely no willpower. If I go to a sit down restaurant - I just
order what I really want - and I'm happy with it. Tracy Rollins

* I prefer a sit down restaurant. I
like the selection of foods at buffets, but the food is NEVER hot enough to
suit me. Kris Born
* I prefer a regular sit down meal
because we usually only eat a couple of times a day. Too much action to spend
all your time on dining!! jdenning
* I usually opt for the casinos
coffee shops. they run good deals and the food is fine. buffets usually mean
lines, i hate lines of any type. good rest. are for me anyway a once a trip
must. treating yourself is what its all about. You can't beat a good coffee
shops specials. Watcherboy
* In the past when we have come to Vegas
my husband and I enjoy the buffets we have tried quite a few of them and the
best in our opinion is the Flamingo for the breakfast buffet and the Mirage
for the dinner buffet. We hope to be coming out once again in the latter part
of Sept into the first week of October and I am sure we will be trying some of
the buffets that we have not had the chance to try in the past. I really enjoy
the questions on this site that you put forth to your readers and occasionally
I feel that my viewpoint might count. Keep up the good work. I look forward to
reading your newsletter each month. Thanks Beverly Kircher
* Most
of the time we eat at buffets because of all the different foods serviced.
about once out of 5 days we go to a sit down restaurant. sedigv44
* I enjoy the wonderful variety of
buffets Las Vegas has to offer. Particularly for breakfast and lunch. However,
I prefer a "regular" sit down style restaurant for dinner. After a
day of pounding the pavement in search of the loosest slots, the last thing I
want to do is stand in line to eat dinner. I much prefer resting my feet and
relaxing with a beverage while waiting for someone to bring my food. Also if
we are going to see a show later in the evening sitting down in a nice
restaurant just seems to make the evening a little more special.

choose to eat at the buffet's. When you travel with large groups their is
something for everyone. The prices are good for what you get. Cathy

downfall we eat way to much.......... murrdog777
* Have
been to Vegas several times and enjoy the buffets. Quick, hot, and great
variety. Gets you in and out to get back to what you want to do. Ann,

* Fast food is everywhere so why travel
to Vegas to eat a Big Mac? The buffets vary from outstanding to mediocre and
they usually entail a wait to get in and several waits at the different
stations. Another draw back to the buffet is I generally load too much on my
plate (they always seem to provide extra large plates) and being a frugal
person I hate to leave anything on my plate--so I overeat. There are many good
restaurants in Vegas which vary from reasonable to extremely expensive. Some
of the better, or should I say more expensive, require coat and tie which
turns me off. But, I prefer to eat in a good restaurant which is convenient to
the action and there is a wide variety to choose from in the city. I like to
eat at ethnic restaurants which are not available in my home town and try
different places on each trip. I may not always be totally pleased with my
choice, but hey that's life! HBHWANGO
* When I'm in Las Vegas, I love to
eat at the buffets because I can eat what I want and what appeals to me.
It's like playing the slot machines ... you never know when you'll get a
winner! Cathy from Louisiana
* I prefer a sit down restaurant. This is
a time of relaxation and talk to your friends or family without having to be
constantly looking at something to distract your conversation. You can
communicate on a one to one basis. This is an enjoyable time. Carolyn
* Vegas is so precious when we get to
visit that we usually eat most meals on the fly and then get back to the
gambling. However, we do plan at least one meal at a great restaurant
each trip. Ben C.
* Prefer the buffets, selection is
great. Bob & Vicki Folkmann
* I like eating in the better sit down
restaurants. I can eat at fast food places back home, do not want to do
the same things in Vegas that I can back in Iowa. Andy, Iowa
* Buffets are fine with me, it is a fast and
easy way to get food and go back to the casino quickly. Alice

* I prefer to eat in fast food
restaurants and save my money for the casino tables. Mark

* The buffets are fine with me....they
have a great selection and I can eat at the pace I want to without waiting on
people to serve me. Seems like many restaurants in Vegas are under
staffed and the wait just keeps getting longer each trip. Marian
