TOP 5 BUFFETS in LAS VEGAS for 2026 | Seafood, Steak & More!

Wow, whole lobster and lobster tails, crab legs, and seafood galore. Check out all of these savory meats. The desserts are unbelievable. Hello everybody, it's Explore Vegas and today we have a special buffet video for you. We're going to share our top five buffet picks for 2026. Number five on our top five buffet list, the Garden Buffet at the South Point. The Garden Buffet makes our top five list because it is all about value, something that folks are missing in 2025 in Las Vegas. The prices are cheaper, you get more for your dollar, it is a great value overall. The Garden Buffet offers breakfast, lunch, and dinner on weekdays, and brunch and dinner on the weekends. The breakfast runs $19.95, lunch runs $26.95, and dinner from Saturday through Thursday runs $37.95. Friday night is seafood night and it will cost you $57.95. Make sure to sign up for a free player card as it will give you anywhere from a three to a five dollar discount for up to two people per card. The buffet includes soft drinks, but as an additional bonus, certain times of the week adult beverages are included as well. The weekday breakfast includes two Bloody Marys per person, the weekend brunch includes two mimosas per person, and seafood night includes two glasses of wine, red sangria, or draft beer per person. No other buffet in town gives you this added value. I love that prime rib and peel and eat shrimp are served every night for dinner and on the weekends for brunch. Seafood night is on Friday and it is an incredible value as it includes oysters on the half shell, prime rib, chilled and steamed Dungeness crab and snow crab legs. If you plan to go to the Garden Buffet for seafood night, I highly recommend going early as the line can be one hour or longer just to get in. I rate this buffet four out of five stars as it offers tremendous value to buffet lovers. Discounts are offered with the player club card, alcoholic drinks are included with some of the buffets, and seafood night is definitely a hit. Coming in at number four on our top five buffet list, the Ace Buffet at the Palms. The Ace Buffet makes our top five buffet list because they are doing something that no other buffet in town is doing, and that is all you can eat whole lobster and lobster tails. They do it two days a week. Also, they still run monthly theme nights. These are run the last Saturday of the month and they rotate, so one month you might have Italian night and the next month is Hawaiian night. You never really know, but no other buffet in town is doing this. The AYCE or Ace Buffet at the Palms offers brunch seven days a week for $42.99. Dinner is served seven days a week as well. Standard dinner runs $46.99 and is offered Saturday through Tuesday. Lobster night is offered Wednesdays and Thursdays at a price tag of $79.99 for all you can eat whole lobsters and lobster tails. On Fridays, Prime Ribbon Snow Crab are the specialty and the price is $52.99. Monthly theme nights are offered the last Saturday of each month and are generally $52.99 but can be higher if lobster is offered. While the Ace Buffet at the Palms is not as big as some of the other buffets, they totally make up for it with their innovative menu and premium lobster nights. They are most known for their lobster nights serving up whole lobsters and lobster tails in addition to snow crab legs and peeled shrimp cocktail. They have two carving stations and typically offer smoked brisket at one of them while offering prime tri tip and porchetta at the other. The monthly surprise theme nights change every month and are offered the last Saturday of each month. The menus offer several specialty items only available that specific night. Some samples of theme nights are Polynesian Night, Italian Night, and All-American Night. My favorite part of the Ace Buffet is still Lobster Night as I can splurge on all the lobster I want in addition to crab legs and shrimp, but the carving stations are still available in case someone going with me really isn't a seafood fan. I rate this buffet four out of five stars because I always enjoy my meal and experience here. Please keep in mind that the lobsters are prepared in large batches to keep up with demand. While they are main lobsters, cooking in large batches doesn't always equate to the quality you would get in a restaurant that you order a single lobster for over a hundred dollars. The staff are very kind and attentive, the menus are unique and appealing, and this buffet offers something no other buffet in Vegas offers, whole lobsters, as many as you want. If you're looking to attend Lobster Night, do make sure to reserve your table in advance. Number three on our top five buffet list, Anthony's Prime at the M Resort. Anthony's Prime makes our top five buffet list because of the pure elegance. Everything in there is top-notch. For the die-hard buffet fans in Las Vegas who missed the Sterling Brunch, this is the buffet for you. The M Resort had one of my favorite buffets prior to the pandemic. Although their regular buffet still hasn't made a comeback, their signature steakhouse Anthony's Prime continues to run their Sunday brunch for those seeking an elite buffet experience. It's only offered on Sundays from 11 a.m. to 1 30 p.m. and it carries a price tag of $99.99 per person. Their featured dishes are their Prime Rib, Beef Wellington, Lamb Chops, and Roasted Lobster Tails. For those who missed the old Sterling Brunch at Bally's, this is as close as you are going to get. In addition to their featured dishes, they offer Snow Crab Legs, Jumbo Shrimp Cocktail, Jonah Crab Claws, Smoked Scottish Salmon, French Pastries, and so much more. For those who don't enjoy seafood or carved meats, they do offer premium breakfast items and made-to-order omelets as well. Arrive hungry and you will leave absolutely stuffed. I rate this buffet four out of five stars. The only reason they lose a star is their limited availability. They are booked up for months at a time. The only other way to get in sooner is to get lucky and find a newly opened reservation or just show up at opening and gamble on the fact that a reservation canceled allowing you to snag it. If you do book far in advance or find yourself lucky enough to get in on short notice, you will not regret it. The food is top-notch and you will want to return for more. And the runner-up on our top five buffet list, the Bacchanal Buffet at Caesars Palace. This buffet is number two on our list because it is huge. In fact, it is the largest buffet in Las Vegas. Although its mere size is mesmerizing, the one thing that probably keeps it from number one is that its size forces them to cook food in large batches rather than small batches. And the quality can decrease just a bit when it is extremely crowded. Otherwise, this is a fantastic buffet. They have all the premium seafood including crab legs and lobster. They have premium carving stations with prime ribs, steam ship. There's even duck offered and premium Asian food. It has it all. The Bacchanal Buffet at Caesars Palace offers brunch Friday, Saturday, and Sunday for $86.99 per person. Dinner is offered seven days a week. Monday through Thursday dinner is $86.99 per person. And on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays dinner is a whopping $91.99 per person. The Bacchanal Buffet serves over 250 items from 20 different kitchens making it the largest buffet in Las Vegas. It's more than a buffet, it's an experience. Snow crab, prime rib, beef, steam ship, duck, sushi, and more are available for brunch and dinner. The lobster is only served for dinner though. I highly recommend making reservations or dining at off-peak times to minimize wait times. Once you are seated you'll want to pop right back up and begin grabbing your food as the lines even inside the buffet can be tough to navigate at times. At the Bacchanal Buffet it is impossible to try all or most of the items offered so you'll want to try the most expensive items first in order to get the most bang for your buck. I rate this buffet four out of five stars. Although the buffet has the largest variety of any buffet in Vegas this does present a problem with demand sometimes. Also the 90 minute time limit is never enough. The staff are always great though and there is extra staff wiping down the buffet area to always keep it clean. And the number one buffet on our top five buffet list, the Wynn Buffet. This buffet is the top of our list again this year because the quality is just unmatched here. They prepare food in small batch quantities resulting in better tasting food. The premium offerings are offered daily. I'm talking about lobster, crab legs, caviar, wagyu at the carving station and so much more. The buffet at the Wynn is the champion of buffets in Las Vegas. Brunch is offered seven days a week at a price tag of $59.99 per person and dinner is offered daily as well at a price tag of $79.99 per person. The buffet at the Wynn is the ultimate dining experience with over 120 dishes prepared from 16 different kitchens. In order to keep the quality high food is prepared in smaller batches. Everything is elegant here from the ambience of the dining room to the selection of the finest dishes. This is an experience worth splurging on. Enjoy lobster, crab legs, wagyu beef, prime rib, caviar and so much more. If the regular buffet isn't adventurous enough for you, pay an additional fee for the living large package which includes a one and a half pound lobster served table side. The desserts are so good you don't even think they are real. There is sure to be something for everyone in your party at the Wynn buffet. I rate it 5 out of 5 stars because of all of the high quality premium offerings and the beautiful ambience. The service is excellent and surprisingly the price has not increased in the past year.
