Las Vegas Buffet: Six Picks and Their Prices
A Las Vegas buffet at Wynn costs $59.99 per person for brunch and $79.99 for dinner, plus tax. Bacchanal at Caesars Palace lists an early dinner at $69.99 on weekdays. Below are six ways to eat well, with each price taken from the resort's own page and the gaps named. Wynn sells priority seating, Bacchanal takes bookings on OpenTable, and the three tours meet at Excalibur, New York-New York or The Cosmopolitan.
A buffet is one way to taste many dishes in one sitting: you pay one price and serve yourself from live cooking stations, usually with seafood, carved meat, hot dishes, salads and desserts. Portions are yours to choose, so you get more variety than a sit-down plate, but each dish is made in bulk rather than to order, so the cooking is less personal. Neither Wynn nor Caesars publishes a plate limit, but Wynn says each visit includes up to two hours at the buffet. A guided tasting walk is another, and the las vegas foodie tours page lists those. This list starts with the big resort buffets, then moves to cheaper and different ways to eat.
1. The Buffet at Wynn: seafood dinner and brunch
The Buffet at Wynn charges $79.99 per person for its seafood dinner and $59.99 for brunch, plus tax. Wynn lists brunch daily from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. and dinner daily from 1 p.m. to 9 p.m. Children ages 3 to 9 pay half price. An endless pour package of select cocktails, mimosas, wine and beer adds $32.99.
| Wynn meal | Hours | Price per person |
|---|---|---|
| Gourmet Brunch | Daily, 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. | $59.99 |
| Seafood Gourmet Dinner | Daily, 1 p.m. to 9 p.m. | $79.99 |
Wynn does not take regular reservations. You can buy priority seating for $5 per person, and it opens 30 days ahead for up to six guests. Parties of seven or more send a group inquiry. Wynn says prices may change on holidays and peak days.
Pro Tip Buy Wynn's $5 priority seating the day it opens, 30 days ahead, so you skip the long line at the door.
2. Bacchanal Buffet at Caesars Palace: an early dinner on weekdays
Bacchanal's early dinner costs $69.99, and it runs Monday to Thursday from 2:30 to 4 p.m. Caesars Palace says you must reserve it through OpenTable. The page lists no price for the regular dinner or brunch, so we leave those out.
The buffet has 10 kitchens, nine chef-attended stations and more than 250 dishes. The dinner has a seafood station with lobster, crab claws and shrimp, plus prime rib and smoked brisket. Guests must wear shoes and shirts, and swimwear and robes are not allowed. Neither Caesars nor Wynn lists a plate limit or a sharing rule, so ask the host if you plan to share a plate; the dress rule is the only etiquette rule Caesars prints. For seafood, the Bacchanal dinner page names lobster, crab claws, shrimp, scallops and a Cajun seafood boil. Wynn's seafood dinner is the other pick, since Wynn names its dinner as a seafood meal, and the Visit Las Vegas page adds The Palms for lobster and seafood. No official page says "crab legs" for a buffet by name. Groups of 13 or more call the number on the page.
3. Garden Buffet at South Point: many stations, no posted price
South Point's Garden Buffet serves breakfast, lunch and dinner on weekdays, and brunch and dinner on Saturday and Sunday. South Point describes six live cooking stations for Asian, Mexican, Italian, barbecue, Chinese and seafood dishes, plus a Mongolian grill. The page prints no prices and no opening hours.
Call the hotel for the price on your day. Do not plan a budget around a guess.
4. Food halls: variety without a set price
A food hall lets you pick your own dishes and pay for only what you eat. The Visit Las Vegas tourist board names four food halls. They are Block 16 Urban Food Hall at The Cosmopolitan, Famous Foods Street Eats at Resorts World, Proper Eats Food Hall at ARIA and the Food Hall at Fremont Downtown.
The board calls Block 16 "a perfect choice for budget-conscious travelers seeking a variety of quick, inexpensive food." It prints no dish prices. Proper Eats opened in December 2022 in the space of the ARIA buffet, which shows how buffets have been giving way to this format.
5. Tournament of Kings: a feast and a show in one ticket
The Tournament of Kings dinner show at Excalibur, from €64 per person, pairs a meal with a 1.5-hour show. The listing includes the show ticket and dinner, and it says you eat with your hands. It rates 4.7 from 507 reviews on GetYourGuide.
Know the catch before you book. The listing has no free cancellation, and the seller is GetYourGuide Tours & Tickets GmbH. It is not suitable for people with epilepsy, and the meeting point is Excalibur. If you want more evening choices, see the Las Vegas shows page.
6. Strip food tours: a full meal in small bites
A food tour spreads a meal over several stops, and a guide picks the dishes. The Strip foodie walking tour, from €88 per person, takes up to 10 people on a 2.5-hour walk. It includes three savory tastings, one sweet one and water, and it rates 4.9 from 35 reviews. Best Bet Vegas Tours runs it from New York-New York, with free cancellation up to 24 hours ahead.
The Original Strip Foodie Tour, from €111 per person, lasts 3 hours with up to 12 people. It lists 8 to 10 tastings that add up to a full meal plus dessert, and it meets at The Cosmopolitan. It rates 5.0, but from only 4 reviews, so read the listing first. Taste Buzz Food Tours runs it, and it has free cancellation up to 24 hours ahead. Tips are not included on either tour. Both tours meet at one fixed spot and run on foot, so you do not need to drive. The listings do not say how they handle vegetarian or allergy needs, so write to the operator through GetYourGuide before you book. Neither tour is a place to test a food allergy on the day.

The best meal on the Strip is the one that fits your appetite, not the one with the longest line.
How to choose a Las Vegas buffet
Pick a resort buffet if you want a big, long meal, and pick a food hall or a tour if you want a lighter one. The table shows only prices we could read on an official page. Our verdict: do it on your own if you want the most food for the money and do not mind a line. Book a tour if you want a guide and a set plan, since you pay more per person but skip the line and the driving. For quality, a buffet gives you range, while a sit-down meal gives you one dish cooked to order. No official page compares the two, so judge by what you like to eat.
| Pick | Price we could confirm | Best for | Catch |
|---|---|---|---|
| Wynn | $59.99 brunch, $79.99 dinner | Seafood and a long brunch | The highest price listed here |
| Bacchanal | $69.99 early dinner, Mon to Thu | A weekday meal at Caesars Palace | Needs a reservation; other meals have no posted price |
| South Point | None posted | Many stations in one room | Call for the price |
| Food halls | None posted | Light eaters and small budgets | Pay per dish |
| Tournament of Kings | From €64 | A meal and a show | No free cancellation |
| Strip food tours | From €88 | Tasting several resorts | Tips not included |
Key Takeaway Wynn's $79.99 dinner is the highest price we confirmed and Bacchanal's $69.99 weekday early dinner is the lowest, so a buffet dinner for two runs from $139.98 to $159.98 before tax.
A buffet is the wrong choice if you eat little or want one great dish. Two brunches at Wynn cost $119.98 before tax. A food hall or a tasting tour is the better pick for you.
We could not confirm current prices for the Bellagio, Excalibur, Paris, Rio, Cosmopolitan Wicked Spoon or Palms buffets. Their official pages did not load or print no price, so they are not ranked here. Check each resort's own page before you plan around them.
Want a feast with a show, or a tasting walk instead?
The Tournament of Kings dinner show starts from about €64 per person, and the two Strip food tours start from about €88 per person. Prices are the lowest "from" prices on GetYourGuide. Verdict: do it on your own if the buffet is the point of the trip; book a tour if you want a guide. On your own, a resort buffet is the better value if you want a big, long meal and can wait in line, and it costs $59.99 to $79.99 with no driving on the Strip. Pick a tour if you want a guide, a set time and several resorts in 2.5 to 3 hours, or a meal with a show. A tour costs more per person but adds a guide, a fixed plan and no line. Each tour meets at one place (Excalibur, New York-New York or The Cosmopolitan), so you need no car, and tips are not included.

Conclusion
A Las Vegas buffet is worth the money if you arrive hungry and want many dishes in one sitting. Wynn is the clearest pick for seafood, Bacchanal is the one to book for a weekday early dinner, and a food hall or a tasting tour costs less when you eat little. Read the resort's page on the day you go, because prices and hours change.
