I Tried Bellagio's $75 All You Can Eat Dinner Buffet in Las Vegas... 🤔 

Thanks for watching! ❤ Be sure to check out my 2nd channel Ruby Slots: youtube.com/@Ruby-Slots

I worked at Bellagio for 20 years and left when Covid hit. In all the years I worked there all that food still looks the exact same!! There’s no way that buffet is or ever should be $75!! Thanks for the video, Ruby ✌🏻

I love your honest review. It seems like when most reviewers go to Vegas, they tend to lead you to believe everything is so Big and wonderful, and tend to sell the city, instead of being completely honest. You are plain refreshing!

When Ruby was afraid to try the oysters, we all knew it wasn’t worth $75.

Thank you for such an honest review! Other vloggers "love" everything. I've eaten at enough buffets to know not everything is good and most foods are not hot enough!

Let’s have a carrot. Get a little greens in our life. 😂

Hi Ruby. Great review. I was surprised the way the food was presented...in big serving dishes, not in warming trays. Lukewarm food doesn't work for me...especially for $75.

Loved the review Ruby! $75 is way too high for that selection 🤯

I was there with a friend last weekend on Saturday night and after going there for over 10 years once or twice a year I don't think I'll be going back. It was just not good. We also went to the Wynn Buffet on Sunday night within an hour of their advertised closing time, everything was fresh and hot and also a million times better tasting than the food we had the night before at the Bellagio. They also had more to offer, plenty of crab legs and desserts were much better for lower price than Bellagio. Just go to Wynn if you want to enjoy one of the best buffets in Las Vegas.

This used to be an awesome buffet back in the early 2000s. $29 weekdays and $39 on weekends which included seafood like the Alaskan King Crabs. Sad to hear its gone way downhill and overpriced. Thanks for the review.

I remember when the RIO had the seafood buffet for $30 and i thought that was outrageous. $75??? Not a chance in hell.

No lobster or crab legs?? Bellagio wtf is you doing

Hey Ruby, I live in Hawaii and we generally go by this rule of thumb with seafood. Fridays fish is fridays fish. Meaning it was caught on Friday and served on Friday. Saturdays fish is Fridays fish and sundays fish is Fridays fish. So, you were wise not to eat the oysters.

I stayed at the Bellagio a year ago and passed on that buffet. Found other good places that was great and not charging $75.

I haven't been to vegas for decades, then there were entire rooms of buffets for 6.99 if not less and if you went downtown they wanted to keep you in the casino so along with the free drinks they would give out huge shrimp cocktails with delicious sauce. Fun times

We went at the Bellagio for the lunch buffet earlier this week and it had approximately the same things that you showed in your review. We had a 2 for 1 with MGM rewards so it wasn't bad but like you said in your review, some things could be better (variety and temperature). It didn't always looked fresh. Really enjoyed the pork belly and ribs too. I like an honest review. We also hit Best Friends at Park and it was amazing. Finished our trip at Prime Steakhouse and it was amazing.

Great job with describing all the food. I think you nailed it and I feel like your talking points were excellent. I trust your opinion 100%

I remember eating at that buffet sometime in the 90s. There were people eating plate after plate of crab legs and nothing else. I saw one woman clean out the dessert bar of every last creme bruelee. There were almost too many choices. It was a whole lot cheaper, maybe 25 bucks. I'd love to go back someday.

This doesn’t hold a candle to the Wynn buffet, and it’s more expensive! (And no crab or lobster????) The Asian section looked terrible.

Geez, I remember when their $25 buffets were considered expensive. Las Vegas used to be about $2 buffets! No buffet is worth $75, unless it's caviar and edible gold.

So happy for a real review!!! Too many will still recommend a buffet, almost like they’re hoping for sponsorship. Thank you so much for the honest review!!! And honestly, without crab legs even being on the menu they shouldn’t be charging more than $50. Wicked spoon is cheaper and has crab legs for the lunch portion of their buffet and their choices are fantastic all around!!!!

Some hots, some misses. But for $75 a plate everything on the menu should be a home run. Thanks for your honest review of the buffet. Looking forward to your next video.

Nice balanced review Ruby, Bellagio gonna have to up there game to compete win Wynn

Thank you for your closing honesty…I was thinking, during your review, there was no way this qualifies as a $75 buffet experience. Should be more upscale type offerings, especially the seafood station. 😉👍🌴🌴🌴

Thanks for the report. Will try for the first time, the Wicked Spoon at the Cosmo in 6 weeks. This buffet definitely looks to NOT be worth it.

A $75 dinner buffet has to wow me with pretty much everything it's offering, especially now that decent buffets for $20-30 are a thing of the past. I recently heard quite a few people saying that the especially the buffet at Bellagio went downhill. Looks to me like they overstepped in trying to find out what guests are willing to tolerate and shell out after Covid. I hope this will be a general learning process within the Las Vegas industry that leads us to a healthy and happy middle.

I really appreciate your often criticism and blunt reviews in this video. I am an avid you tube food review watcher and other than Timmy's Takeout everyone sugarcoats. Thank for your honesty and I hope you lean more to food restaurant reviews. I will be watching you more as a result of this video.

We had lunch there 3 weeks ago, and it was excellent. We are about midday, so maybe we were just lucky, but all the food was hot/warm. The Belly pork with the mash potato was delicious, and the deserts and gelato were amazing.

You give really good descriptive assessments. You really get a sense of why you like or don't like something.

Thanks for the review! I've done the Bellagio buffet before (pre-COVID) and it was just ok. I don't really think I get my money's worth at buffets in general, because I can't eat that much food at one sitting! 🤣

No lobster or crab for $75. HARD pass.

Great review Ruby. Thanks for sharing🙂

Thank you for your honest review, you and Mr. Ruby keep it real!

Thanks for the honest , as always review Ruby 👍

Thanks for a great review; love watching you and Mr Ruby! ❣️

I'm really impressed! you just made something that's so hard to do look easy. I feel like I've gone there which is the point. Great job here with the entire production.

We were at the Wynn Buffett last February. It was good, but for someone who has always enjoyed (to much) buffets I think that we would be better off going to an additional night while in Vegas at a high end restaurant. Buffets we can save for a cruise if we so choose.

Paying $75 a pop for that buffet is criminal! I stayed at Bellagio last year for my birthday and dined at Spago with a ladyfriend.Service was awesome,food delicious. I had a schnitzel, and my date salmon,drinks and dessert, with tax and tip came to $180,and totally worth it. Cheesy buffets that are hit or miss for ridiculous prices is just not worth it.Splurge and dine at a real restaurant is my tip if you come to Vegas!

Your channel is great! Wonderful job as always!

Thank you for that very honest straight forward review.

Hey Ruby . I thought most of the dishes looked great . Not being hot is a draw back. Buffet sushi is never really that good. I usually skip the buffets anyway . Would rather put the $75 towards dinner at Lago or Prime if I’m at Bellagio 😎😎😎

Even though that buffet is tempting…..I could never eat or break even spending $75. Rather just order a good steak or lobster tails. Great video! Very informative! ❤❤❤❤❤❤.

Enjoy your in depth honest reviews!🤙

Thanks for this video...I've been to Bacchanal, ARIA (when it was open), Wynn, Wicked Spoon, etc. - the Bellagio was the last "high-end" buffet I haven't tried...after checking this out, I think I'll keep it that way. I did see your A.Y.C.E. review, and that looked a lot more promising, and almost half the price. And definitely doing brunch at the Wicked Spoon again in July. Thanks again! Love your channel.

Whoa, I think that's the only time I've spotted oysters on the half shell on a current Las Vegas buffet! Unlimited oysters plus the carving station alone meets my bar for "high value." Assuming Ruby ate the oyster and is still with us, anyway...

I ate there for breakfast last week and it was pretty good. Like 8/10. I liked the prime rib. I would recommend Caesar’s any day!

Keep up the hard work! Very informative and great vid…

Thanks. Your footage convinced me to try this buffet.

Another GREAT review Ms. Ruby. I'm with you on this .... at $75 per, it should be a very good and consistent quality buffet.

Great review! I must say though, I can understand why the food would have a low-spice threshold because (at a buffet) it should really be "by request". It is an easier thing to add to then to take away from, and at that price I wouldn't want to be wasting more food because it was too spicy for most eaters.

Thanks for your review on the Bellagio buffet.Everything looks really good.💛

Good video. Quite useful. Thanks.

Hi ruby! Love your videos. I have a question can you do an updated review for the Wynn buffet. (To be honest can you do updates on all the buffets) plan on going to Vegas this summer!

Ruby, have you ever been to the patisserie with the chocolate fountain in the Bellagio? It has the BEST chocolate mousse I’ve ever had in my life!

Thanks for the honest review👌

Awesome review Ms. Ruby

We were just there last week for the brunch buffet, which seems a lot better. I felt the same about the sushi.

If I am paying $75, I'm not eating carrots and ribs and Mac& cheese, and taco's. I would pass on this buffet definitely.

Thanks for the review!

Ruby is living the dream. Congrats.🥳

Sounds like a fair review. Thanks Ruby!

You are excellent at these reviews. Made me hungry. $75 plus a tip. Wow. I will go when it’s a comp. Haha. I think I’d rather hit a steakhouse with a nice wine at that price. No crab claws too. The shrimp looked slimy. That’s too bad.

You’re a dessert expert ruby ! Thank you so much and wish to meet you in person ❤❤❤

I hereby second all of these comments, plus your great review. Thanks Ms. Ruby!! ❤

Why do you make all the dishes sound so appetising 🤤

Love your buffet reviews !! I would Never pay that much though. I can't imagine what they could serve to make it worth that

I’m going there on spring break and can’t wait!

Travel Ruby is the best Reviewer on Earth!! Hands Down!!!!! Got to love Travel Ruby!!

Looks like a buffet you can get on Boulder Highway for $15-$20. ♥️🐺

$75 bucks?? I would rather have a good Rib Eye steak at a nice sit down dining room. :) Great honest review. Not a fan of lukewarm or semi-cold food that should be hot! Maybe the heating elements were not keeping the food at the correct temp.

This place is the best thanks for sharing $$$ Great channel see you soon be safe and healthy 👍🏻👍🏻

Great video as usual. ❤

I think that “6:00 PM and there was no line-up, we got seated right away” speaks volumes.

Another down-to-earth informative review I would not waste my money at that buffet a lot of these Vegas buffets think they can charge whatever they want and have substandard offerings. The key was no lines I assume if you go there once you don't go back

I love your honesty Thank you

Long time Bellagio buffet fan going back the $15 breakfast and $20 lunch days, but frankly the pandemic broke them. The food you showed is no different then what they used to charge $40 for. Went in 2021 and it was very disappointing. Went to the Wynn a couple weeks ago and they killed it at a lower price point.

Wow even I was disappointed at what they had to offer. The desserts looked the best to me. I can't pay $75 for desserts though lol

Thank you! I've been dreaming of the Bellagio mashed potatoes since a friend told me (twenty years ago!) I must get them if I ever go to their buffet! I felt so happy when I saw you choose them! To me, the cauliflower looked outstanding and a must try! I'm not super into meat though so aside from those two items and the desserts, this buffet did not show me much, especially for the price. I would want a buffet that has great peel 'em and eat 'em prawns and crab and appetizers and fruit. I wonder if this one is any better for brunch? I must say, so far, from the ones I've watched of yours, the Wicked Spoon looked the best. I'm a new subscriber, really enjoying your content! You describe things incredibly well.

Great vid!

I whole heartily agree with your review. We haven't been to the Bellagio buffet in over 3 years for all the reasons you have listed. We had used 2 for 1 - "My Vegas" deal, thinking that's why it wasn't all that good, but 3 years later it still seems to be a disappointment. Wynn and Cosmopolitan are still my favourite.

When you go to a buffet and the food is not hot enough do you ever go tell them behind the stations that the food isnt hot enough or do you just let it be? Personally I always tell them so they can check it and replace it quick 🙂

Love this place the fountains are my fave

Love you Ruby, and the Mr.

Last time I ate here for brunch and the Wynn and Excalibur buffets. I didn't have any issues temperature wise when I went to the Bellagio but I'm in agreement about the variety for the price point. I'm gonna go the extra mile for the Bacchanal next time.

I was there in February of 2023 and was also very disappointed with the quality of the food. Just like your review, many of my items were either cold or luke-warm. Back a few years ago this was my always go-to buffet and the quality has gone way down. There are only two buffets that I will have for dinner now, Wynn is usually always a great choice. Bacchnal at Caesars is a good choice for dinner if you get there just around 5:30 to 6:00 so you can get the fresh items, although it is now ridiculously expensive

Great video! Thx.

Thank you for your ...services ms. Ruby....

I've done the Bellagio Breakfast buffet a few times, and it was nothing special, but it was free both times, so I couldn't complain much. Sadly this hotel used to be considered 5 stars, and in recent times, it's about 2.5 at best, but they still charge the 5 star rates. The Bellagio is for sure still living off it's name of 15 to 20 years ago, but most things specific to the hotel are not what they used to be.

My husband and I went there in October, we were very excited to try the famous Bellagio’s buffet but honestly we felt disappointed. There wasn’t a lot to choose and for the price it’s not worthed, we enjoyed much the Wynn’s

Great Review!

Hi Ruby 👋 I enjoy your work 😊

Thanks for the review. I agree with you. $75 is a lot of money for that quality/variety of buffet. I would not dine there at that price. It would be more appealing if it's under $50. Inflation is out of control!

So in Canadian dollars this would be over $100. The answer is no way lol The meat alone in the taco and the basic food items anyone could make themselves. Also I feel that buffets are just an excuse to gorge oneself to get your money's worth. I'm so glad you do these reviews as we are going to Vegas in Sept and I'm starting to keep notes! You rock!

Thanks for sharing this video,

I stumbled on your channel accidentally while browsing on RU-vid. After watching this clip, I seem to like your style of video presentation. I will subscribe right away.

what happened to the 8.99 buffets? 75 is absurd

The challenge finding enough help even in a totally unionized food service market like LV is apparent . Bellagio has to have the equipment in place to do it right - fabulous reviews pre pandemic . Can they get it right?

Thank you for your honest opinion.

We hit the $49 cereal and melon bar at the Bellagio. I’d recommend their Fruit Loops and honeydew but the Raisin Bran and pop tarts were too stale.

Quail and Pork Belly are expensive, so overall; the price is fair to me! Also, a lot of people eat a lot of meat at buffets and eat large portions. I’m a small eater so I rarely go to a buffet unless it’s comped by the casino. 😊🎰🍗🥗🥕
