Hey guys, I'm so excited because I am crossing another item off my food bucket list.
As I mentioned before, I love coming to Vegas.
And the main reason I love coming to Vegas is really for the food.
Every single time I've been here so far, I've tried the Bacchanal Buffet.
That's my go-to place. I think that's the best buffet on the face of this planet.
At least the best one I've ever tried.
But there's always one that eluded me, mainly because they only offer it on Saturday and Sunday mornings.
And typically, I don't stay here through the weekend because I think the weekend in Vegas is like crazy.
It's too much. So I always try to get out before then.
But today, finally, I'm here. It's a Sunday morning.
I'm at the Sterling Brunch.
This is something I've been wanting to try for, god, how many years?
3, 4, 5 years. Never had the opportunity.
This is basically a brunch they offer at Bally's.
And what's really special about this is that you get unlimited lobster.
And as I'm talking, my mouth is watering because I'm thinking about all the lobster I'm gonna eat.
I love lobster. Some people don't really like lobster. Some people think it's overhyped.
I personally love lobster.
If you're a drinker, they also offer you free drinks, free champagnes.
That won't apply to me. I don't drink.
But I'm so excited to see what else they have to offer at this buffet because I heard really good reviews.
The waiter just offered us the only thing that's not on the buffet that you have to order, which is the egg benedict.
And it comes in lobster, steak, or I think pesto.
But now we're gonna go actually onto the buffet and see what else they got to offer.
Alright, several things caught my attention. First of all, the lobster, of course.
As you can see, the lobster is not just like a steamed lobster that you typically find in a lot of buffets.
That's seasoned, it's broiled. That looks awesome.
It's huge. It's massive.
It's tasty.
And I really like the king crab.
King crab is different than snow crab.
You guys like king crab?
Of course. Way better than the snow crab.
Snow crab is like, come on, that's juvenile.
You gotta work too hard on your return.
A king? Anything with a king to its title?
That must taste better.
And finally, lobster ravioli.
Hey, nothing is complete without lobster ravioli.
Take it from Mike. Nothing is complete without lobster ravioli.
My new best friend right here.
Okay, round one is done and this is insane. Let me show you guys what I got.
Mashed potatoes, hash and chorizo sausage,
eggs benedict lobster, eggs benedict rack of lamb,
roast beef, horseradish sauce,
lobster tails, king crab,
filet mignon, ratatouille, lobster bisque,
lobster ravioli, and another filet mignon patty.
So this is a crazy round one. I'm so excited.
Also, take a look at this, guys.
What? Yo, is this like a bread hand grenade?
This is called a popover, I think.
Topover? Popover?
So this is some kind of bread.
Looks kind of like an English pudding with cheese inside, I think.
So let's break this open first because this bad boy looks just...
Oh my god.
Wow.
Wow, so cheesy smelling.
First rule about eating a lobster buffet,
you gotta bib up.
Yo, don't worry about looking weird.
You gotta do what you gotta do.
Let's start trying all these things out.
Lobster ravioli.
I know it's dark in here, guys. I can't help it.
Just the way it is.
There's no lighting in here.
Wow, look at that. So pretty.
In a cast iron little skillet.
Let's give this a try.
That's off the hook.
First of all, there's two big pieces of ravioli in here.
And the filling is like...
They're not skimping on the filling, obviously.
You know once I actually went to an Italian place
and I ordered a lobster ravioli
and there was literally like a pinch of lobster
in the ravioli. This thing is stuffed.
Oh my god.
I wanna try the steak before it gets cold because
cold filet mignon is just like the worst thing ever.
So again, a little cast iron skillet.
Filet mignon with looks like
rosemary...
No, thyme and some butter
on top.
So let's give this a try.
As I'm cutting into this
I can tell it's pretty tender.
So this is more of a
medium, medium well cut right here.
Whoa!
I'm from New York.
I love steak. I eat steak all the time.
Oh my god.
I... Oh my god.
Like what else can I say? This thing...
This is like straight from a New York
steak house. Tender, the
flavor is insane.
Just this right now, right here for me
the steak itself is worth it because
if you go to a nice steak house in New York
easily it's $60
for the steak alone.
That's if you're not getting appetizers,
sides. This is
legit steak.
Mmm! Oh I love...
Oh that's just so good. That flavor...
Oh this cheesy bread is awesome.
I'm gonna try the lobster bisque.
Yeah, it's good.
You know, it's not like...
It's not heavenly or anything but
it's good to dip the cheesy bread in, I think.
You know, I don't even know what a ratatouille is.
I know it's a little mouse in a movie.
I never actually saw that movie.
So it looks like a fig.
Don't love it.
It's okay. My fresh
eggs Benedict. This is lobster?
Look at this. That's lobster.
So it's like a...
like a slice
of lobster meat.
I like it. I like it.
I really like it.
You guys care about how the
rack of lamb tastes?
I'm sure you're curious. Let me try this out for you.
Again, I'm only doing this for you. I don't even love
rack of lamb.
Oh! My bib has become
detached. There must be a
better way.
That's good. Wow.
That's good rack of lamb.
So I haven't tried lobster. My friend tried lobster.
You're saying it's awesome.
It's broiled. It's got
it's flavored. Usually what I hate about
lobster in the West
is they steam it or they boil it
and they just make you dip it in butter. That's all
the seasoning they have to it.
So this is already cooked and seasoned
and you don't need to crack it even.
Let me try this without butter.
Wow.
That's good. That's really good.
Wow. I mean I'm dipping it in butter because
I'm a butter fiend.
And this lobster tail
if you get it in New York
just this one lobster tail is probably like
$40-$50. Very flavorful.
Very tender.
It's definitely
fresh.
And I love king crab.
Love king crab.
Never tried king crab.
It's like snow crab
except for it can beat the crab
out of snow crab because it tastes so much better.
That's why they call it a king crab and not just like crab.
Well, can I just say something
about this mashed potato I just tasted?
It's mashed potatoes
with bacon.
Oh my god.
Oh man. I love mashed potatoes.
Oh and there's oh my god
there's some kind of biscuit inside.
Whoa.
Wow.
That's off the hook.
But again guys, buffet strategy number one
never fill up on bread
or carbs. Gotta go for the main
attraction. I feel like a barbarian right now.
I'm all bibbed up. I'm like
you know just gnawing meat from a bone.
I love it. Who needs like knife
and fork? Use your hands.
Round two. The key to success to
any buffet is to treat
it as a battle. So your first
round is always information collecting.
What I mean is you really should just take a little bit
of the things that you think you might like
and then when you find out what you like, go back for round
two and just focus on those
things that you love. So
I got the two things I like the
best. Steak and
lobster. So my two lobster
tails look beautiful and
plump. And my three
little pieces of filet mignon.
I think the reason why this place
of steak is so good is because we are actually
inside the BLT Steakhouse in
Las Vegas. I don't know if you can tell from the
glazed over look in my eyes or not but
I'm done.
The total tally today was five
lobster tails, five steaks,
eggs benedict, lobster
ravioli, roast beef, three
pieces of rack of lamb, mashed potatoes,
king crab, a big cheesy
bread roll. But there's still something I need
to do. Dessert.
Gotta have it.
I don't really understand how the human body works
no matter how full you feel.
There seems always to be room
for dessert.
So I got this
I don't know what this is.
It looks like
some kind of
jello-y thing. Like a raspberry
jello cake or something. Let me try this.
It looks pretty good.
Oh look. I don't know
if this is real or not.
But
there's a gold leaf. Well there was.
Right here.
And I don't really understand when
some people got so rich
they felt that it was a good idea to start eating their
gold. I have no idea what this is but
this looks fantastic.
Wow. That's very
citrusy.
This is some sort of lemon cake.
White chocolate
cover, strawberries with pistachios.
See I don't know what this is.
Just gonna
take a bite out of it.
This is a tiramisu
in a chocolate shell.
That's cool. I like that. None of the desserts
really blew me out of the waters.
I mean they're pretty good but none of them really stood out.
I don't know if you guys ever seen my review on the Bacchanal
Buffet which is still my favorite buffet
in the world. I feel like the Bacchanal Buffet
is still much better than this buffet.
But I do feel that if you really like
lobster, if you really like
steak, if you really like
champagne, obviously this is
a good place to go to. This buffet is definitely
not cheap. It's $90 a
person. Yeah, $90. But you know
it's not like a weekly thing. You come to Vegas,
splurge a little. Especially for me, I don't really come here
to do anything else besides eat. So yeah,
this is my form of entertainment. So for me, I don't
think I'll ever come back to this place again
unless I'm with some friends who really want
lobster. But it was definitely worth
trying. So if you're in Vegas,
you love lobster, you love steaks, you want all
you can drink champagne, definitely try
this place out and let me know how you like it.
Alright guys, I have all the info for this place
in the description box below. Thank you
so much for watching. See ya!
