bacchanal buffet - caesars palace

as advices by many had to try out the best brunch buffet of vegas at caesars palace. there was a huge line to enter and register and even inside it was packed. walking in thought there won't be any veggie options but in fact the whole buffet was spread out with desserts, salad, sea food, live counters and bread section. it covered a variety cuisines as well - italian, chinese, mexican, mediterranean.
quality of the food was fantastic and the food was mouth watering delicious.
food -
yogurt glass was amazing with a hint of cinnamon flakes and berries. 🍦
hummus appetiser was perfectly blended.
rocket leaves and beet with cheese was a refreshing glass of salad.
caesar salad was amazing. it was amazing and the dressing was just so fresh. 🥗
garlic bun was freshly made with the right hit of garlic and butter. 🍞
margarita pizza was oozing with flavours of basil and parmesan. 🍕
vegetable spring roll was loaded with vegetables.
chefs special white sauce pasta was okay. it was bland for my taste. 🍝
tacos were freshly heated and served and you had to pick your own toppings and make it.
there was a variety of eggs 🍳- fried egg with bacon, egg benedict etc.

desserts -
creme brûlée was out of this world. it was one of the best i've ever had. glazed to perfection.
pecan pastry wasgoodbut too sweet for my liking.
raspberry sugar free mousse - i didn't quite like it as it was too spongy.
crepes with nutella and berry sauce was amazing and the best part it wasn't eggy.

i would definitely recommend this place to anyone going to vegas. the ambience is great and can spendgoodcouple of hours eating and chatting.

good but don't go for the king crab!. we recently ate at bacchanal and actually went mainly for the king crab. most of the food wasgoodsome better than the rest. there is such a large selection that if one doesn't like a certain dish, there are hundreds of others to take its place.

one huge disappointment was the king crab. on the buffet table the crab selection was 85% snow crab with the rest being a few meager pieces of king crab. this bordered on mis-representation because they advertise that king crab is one of their main draws. so, unless this changes and they offer what they advertise - we won't go back.

this buffet is not cheap but we wanted to try a vegas buffet since it's so popular.

we started with the seafood section which was pretty good. they had nice crab legs, oysters, shrimps. there were many things to try which was good. in meat section we don't eat beef so we were hoping for some nice lamb chops or something but they only had lamb t-bone which was extremely tough and after struggling with it for few minutes we just gave up on it.

the dessert section was reallygoodwith a lot fresh looking desserts. everything tasted fresh andgoodquality. overall agoodexperience.

did we eat worth the money we paid? definitely not but i would still say its worth experiencing at least once.

when in las vegas you only expect the best, most luxurious of experiences. rest assured that the bacchanal buffet does not disappoint. granted me and my party of 8 had a little bit of a line wait to get in, but once we were seated (by fluke in a nice secluded area away from everyone else, hello awesome private dining experience!) that was all forgotten. i have never before seen that muchgoodquality food in my life. seafood, pizza, pasta, salad, dumplings, meats and anything else your appetite could want. and that's not even going into dessert! everything was done very well and i cant recall one thing i hated. the luxurious setting (caesars palace sure is something hey!!), excellent, polite service and the bustling atmosphere all creates the perfect foodie night out in vegas. perfect to either follow with a great show or a night in digesting all the food you just ate.

oh i loved this place. we went for the champagne brunch. what a buffet! there was a huge line up but we got in and wow ... speechless. the lobster benedicts, the crab legs, the smoked salmon and shrimps. very verygoodselection.

we loved our experience here! best buffet ever been to and the price was worth the experience and food. we love seafood and the hubby is a meat eater so we me the most of our time there. great high quality food... in this case the quantity and quality was all there. we spent agoodamount of time here. the desserts were awesome! food is beautifully presented. if your going to do a buffet in vegas... ur stupid to not go here!

this was a disappointment for me. this review is of their regular week day dinner buffet and not of the kicked-up-a-notch weekend version. so many people say that this is a the best weekday buffet in vegas... i was disappointed because, for example, i love sushi and the sushi on the buffet was, in my opinion, comparable to supermarket quality. i also did not find the raw oysters to be particularly good. the crab legs were nothing to write home about, the shrimp was, well shrimp... yes the selection of items wasgoodbut, in my view, the high price of the buffet did not correspond to the overall quality of the items. if the price was lower, i would have given a higher rating to this buffet. there were also a lot of things that would fill you up easily and you could get anywhere (like pasta, meatballs and pizza). some things that were up to my standards: made-to-order tacos, creme brûlée, and bone marrow.

there comes a time when you ask yourself: "am i willing to spend a weekend dinner tab on one feast?"
let me ask you something: "are you in vegas to have a time or save pennies at every corner?"
the bacchanal buffet has widely been considered the best buffet in vegas for years now. you're paying an arm and a leg for a feast. "well, why would i want to do that?" you ask? becuase this is a feast unlike any other.
boasting 400 seats, a friggin' gigantic selection of custom made dishes (no generic fare here) and a very large desert area, you will find no lack of items here. everything from a to z, but nothing simple in between. i guarantee you that you will not be able to try everythinggoodhere on your first go. that's a guarantee.
there was no food i was disappointed with here, with too many that i couldn't get all of them even if i induced vomiting to make more room (which thankfully i didn't do).i've included in the photos what i got, and yes, i did eat it all. at least the main dishes, got about halfway through deserts before my arm went numb. yes that's an expression, but i was absolutely stuffed.
i ended up going on the peak time of dinner on a saturday evening, and ended up waiting over an hour for the food. totally worth it. apparently they say the food is the same on regular days so i'll come back then when it's less busy and cheaper.

would i go back? in a heartbeat. there was no part that was disappointing and i would easily drop the cash to go back. it's a vegas must for me now, and if your looking for a top notch buffet experience, look no further, or try and not be successful. this is the buffet that sits on top of the pyramid and passes judgement on lesser buffets. truly a feast for a king.
just rainking the food here and not the service (because i've only been there once), i give it a full 5/5. too expensive, yes, but would do it anyways.

i had lunch here at $40 and dinner here at $60.  i enjoyed the lunch better than the dinner.  the service was terrible getting drinks at dinner.  the food selection was good, but very diverse.  the choices at lunch seemed better for me then at dinner, which my guests at dinner did not like it.  they felt there were nogoodtraditional options.  the line was long at both meals to get into the buffet even for a platinum card member.

this buffet is known as the best buffet in las vegas.

price: $55 per person ($25 extra per person if you want to jump the queue)

good: chinese food wasgoodin quality and selection (i did not try the dim sum so i can't comment on these items but the dinner items were nice), i really liked the ginseng chicken soup, desert was reallygood(again the chinese stuff tasted authentic and western dishes were very sweet, but the way they are meant to taste), not much mexican items but the taco station was good, mac'n'cheese was great, crab and fresh shrimp was good, potatoes and gravy was great, roast beef and lamb very good, freshly made fruit juice, bottomless pop, adequate service.

bad: had to wait about 40 minutes to get in, wasn't able to try the dim sum or italian pasta which was a shame (too much to choose from), fries and fried chicken was cold.

summary: great selection and quality. expensive and long wait to get in.

we went for the lunch buffet as we just walked by.  the service was good.  our server was attentive and pleasant.  plates were cleared from our table and drinks were topped up promptly. the ambiance was bright and trendy.   

the food was ok and had agoodselection.  the roast beef was tender and the truffled mashed potato was delicious.  these were the 2 best dishes i could remember.  desserts were ok.    it was agoodprice to be able to sample so many items.

considering the price i payed for the bacchanal buffet champagne brunch, i was a bit disappointed. there were a lot of luxury items on the buffet line (stone crab, large tiger shrimp, alaska king crab), and those items were great. the mexican section was horrendous, but the freshly-squeezed juices were absolutely amazing. i have not been able to find agoodacerola juice outside of brasil, but the had a great one at the buffet. the desserts were amazing. if the menu is priced at the same price it was when i visited, i would not return. for the price, the bellagio or cosmopolitan are much better options.

the very largest and the most famous buffet in caesar's palace. over 500 dishes and a huge restaurent. nearly all major cuisines and all types of proteins. the thing i likes the best were the desserts for which i will go again. everything wasgoodbut in a city where you throw a stone in your own hotel and there are ample great restaurants buffet places are not really a place to visit. but if you must nothing better then bacchanal

i went there on a wednesday night after a long day of traveling, there was a line up, the line up time from start to cashier was fourth five minutes, so the wait was ok, faster than the average one hour, non alcoholic were included, server wasgoodat clearing tables, and refilling drinks, i plated up eight times and on the ninths time i finally got dessert, over all a verygoodbuffet experience

food isgoodbut does it live up to the hype?. i came here for the first time during my christmas holiday in december 2014. i did a lot of reading up on this place and had to try it. i was well-aware that it is one of the best buffets in vegas, so i was prepared for the long lines. my partner and i waited approximately 1 hour to get in (we started lining up at 4:30 pm on a monday). it came out to approximately $75 per person including a tip. the place was packed and we were seated literally 2 feet away from other tables/customers. crammed to say the least. like any other buffet in vegas, the atmosphere was one of chaos. the food stations were well-stocked. the meat and seafood stations are the main attraction. aside from the standard prime rib and snow crab legs, that almost every other buffet in vegas offers, the highlights were the rack of lamb, king crab legs and raw oysters. if you are a meat/seafood lover it will be paradise. the dessert station, while vast, did not satisfy my taste buds. the desserts were all prepared with care and looked fancy, but when it came down to the flavors and taste, it wasn't anything near "amazing" as it should have been for a high calibre vegas buffet charging $60+ per person. service was average. we had to flag the servers down on numerous occassions to pick-up plates from our table.

if you want a little more than what the typical vegas buffet offers, and money is not an object, then by all means go here, you will not be disappointed. but for people with price and value in mind, this place may not live up to your expectations.
