I just got back from Vegas and was pleasesd to find that my personal favorite "great bargain buffet" is still in tact. It is a great secret because it is not advertised. Why not? I was told it's because they don't want to be overrun by drunks.
I am, of course, referring to the Palms lunch buffet for $8.95. That includes UNLUMITED beer and wine - which is what makes this such a great deal. I know we all agreed years ago that the Palms buffet sucked. However, this buffet has been really good for the past couple of years and can stand on its own at that price even without the booze. The inclusion of the alcohol is not stated anywhere and I think that most people dining there didn't even know it was available. You need to ASK. The beer is Miller and the wine is a no name brand. The food included clams, mussels , salmon. several different kinds of shrimp, prime rib, carved turkey, a great mediterranean station, etc. The $8.95 is with players card. It is $12.95 without.
Check it out next time you're in Vegas.
