    We stopped by for Sunday brunch during our trip, and this buffet really exceeded our expectations. We've been to some of the famous big buffets in Las Vegas before, but sometimes there are so many choices that it feels overwhelming and you don't even remember what you ate. This place may be one of the best values in Vegas. They were very generous with the hot crab legs, and the steak was excellent too. For around $43, I honestly couldn't believe how much good food we got. If we lived closer, we would probably come here every week. The staff were also incredibly fast, friendly, and attentive. The service was so good that I honestly wished I had left an even bigger tip. We had a great experience and would definitely come back.

    It's a Vegas buffet, so expect quantity over quality. Having said that, AYCE met my expectations. I think I got my money's worth (it'll cost you about $100 bucks including tip). Diners come in droves for one thing and one thing only: the lobster. You can get them whole, or just the tail. I opted for the former. Sure, these aren't your freshly flown-in Maine lobsters and the meat is kind of rubbery, but they are good enough. They have a couple of meat stations for prime rib and brisket. Got them both and I'll say the cuts were very dry and tough. I kind of expected that. That's just me, though. Our little group didn't mind so much. Lastly, the bread here is stale. Almost inedible. Come on guys, let's fix that. A decent time was bad by all.

    Whole lobster, babaganoush & hummus with great crispier pita bread, crab legs

    Pros: - you can check-in and be put on a waitlist and they'll text when a table is available (1 hr 45 min wait on a Thursday around 6:15 pm for lobster & crab night $79.99). Glass of wine was $5, very reasonable, although they only had one option for Chardonnay. Cons: - when table is ready, there's still another line to pay before sitting down. 1 person was serving drinks and ringing people up. That line took 15-20 minutes to get through. They definitely need at least one other person helping. - gelato station was not available Food: Lobster: dry (options for whole lobster and lobster tails) whole lobster was more moist, but it didn't seem cleaned out as well, tasted a bit of a sandy texture is some areas Crab: messy, but good. Dessert faves: dole soft serve, brownie that tasted fudgy, churro chips. They also have a sugar free section for those interested Top sirloin - seasoned well, was good Brisket - good flavor, 2 bbq sauce options Wedge salad - sampler size but good Service: waitress was friendly. They were very good about picking up dirty dishes, bringing extra napkins, grabbing drinks. Some of the people serving the food were very friendly, while others were just meh. Parking: easy & free. Not too far of a walk from the garage to the restaurant Overall, I'm glad I tried it, not sure I need to go back unless I have a crab craving.

    Las Vegas A.Y.C.E. Buffet. Here we are!!! $46.99 today, steady moving line. Seated. Wendy was phenomenal. She covered about 15 tables with 2 busters. Great job with a beautiful smile and attitude. The options were vast. Stations noted in a variety of names: smoke and fire(brisket and ribs, etc. so many choices. We ate crab legs. It was a buffet and you get what you pay for and please.m consider where you are. Froze to serve; slow, overcooked, seasoned and sometimes watered. Set an expectation. The atmosphere is family fun. The great thing is the patrons are never herded out but when you leave for more foods, make sure to leave signs of a return or your table will be cleared, lol

    Congee..

    9-1-26 Happy September.. ... Efficient process getting everyone in quickly.. (I think my ayce in town could take some lessons).. Only downside is there's no cold crab.. but if you ask they can get some,,but it's ice cold.. Appreciate the variety of vegan/vegetarian options-(useful in case my vegan son wants to eat).. I even tried the jackfruit enchiladas and now will try to replicate at home- you couldn't even tell.. Server was awesome and always refilling with coffee.. Love the spam musubi balls.. (think I'll try at home too)..

    3 solid stars for the lobster buffet on Thursday night. Lots of lobster and crab legs which I'd give an "ok" but not great quality standard too. For the lobster the full lobsters were better than the tails- I'm guessing the tails were previously frozen? The meats were just ok. Thumbs down for the brisket which I thought was tough. But the bbq ribs were decent and the chicken wings surprisingly good. They had a sweet potato dish that was outstanding. They also pressure you to tip upwards of 18-20% which is excessive for a buffet. They had a good selection of ice cream but the quality was just ok. The dole pineapple soft serve was amazing. One thing I didn't love was how expensive the buffet is for kids. My 4 year old's dinner was $60- by far the most expensive meal she has ever had... even though she barely ate.

    Cocktail shrimp; yum!

    I am impressed. For the price, the food is great. I came here for Sunday brunch. The line was long, but it moved decently fast. There is great variety, and while the overall food quality is still not comparable to Wynn and Bacchanal, at half the price (or less), it is still very solid buffet food. The price per person in June 2026 was $42.99. The meat at the carving stations were high quality; the ham was tender and juicy although a bit saltier than I prefer. The tri tip was also really good (though it was a bit more well done than I would like). Still, it was very tender. Overall, I enjoyed most items I got. I was also pleasantly surprised by the quality of their fruit. Their honeydew in particular was so sweet and tasty! I'm normally not a fan of cantaloupe and honey dew, which seem to be buffet staples. However, if all the honey dew tasted like this, I would always eat it. Also, shoutout to our awesome server Belinda. She was friendly, attentive, and efficient! She definitely added to our overall experience. Overall, I can see the reason this buffet has such a high rating, and I would happily eat here again.

    Pancakes! The pancake station has condensed milk which is something I've never seen at other buffets and is a great addition.

    I love coming to this buffet for brunch!! We had a great server named Janice who was accommodating and attentive with our drink refills and cutlery. I've never tried anything that was bad at this buffet. My favorite item to get is the tri-tip that is sliced to order and the crab legs. The tables are always cleaned well and the buffet items are consistently restocked at this most recent visit.

    Came in on a Saturday a little after 1 PM for the brunch buffet. No line, nice and spacious, and our server greeted us with a smile, so I thought we were off to a good start. Then I hit the buffet... and started wondering what happened to this place. My favorites were gone...no lobster rolls, no NY steak. Okay, fine, I'll try something else. Big mistake. Most of the food was cold and bland. The ramen tasted watered down, and the noodles were broken into tiny pieces. Then I grabbed some crab legs... wow. They used to have big clusters, but now they're tiny. What the heck is going on? This buffet used to be worth the trip, but now it feels like they're cutting corners everywhere. Pretty disappointing.

    Still my favorite buffet. M always getting the 2 free brunch deal by playing slots. I love the whole buffet, the manager, all the staff, waiters, and my favorite is the egg station ran by Phuong Do most days. She's a gem. She always remembers my order. That makes me feel special.

    Crab legs, eggs Benedict, prime rib, avocado toast, bacon & eggs

    AYCE is my go to buffet in Vegas. It's reasonably priced and has a decent variety. They also have unlimited snow crabs and champagne/mimosas. For $50 per person including tax and tip, it's not bad compared to other buffets like the Wynn and Wicked Spoon. In terms of taste, some items are delicious and some are mediocre. This was my first time back in a couple of years and I believe the quality has went down a bit. Maybe I went a bit too late during brunch since we didn't get seated until 1 pm, an hour before they stop brunch service. Service was excellent. Our server was very kind and attentive and made sure our glasses were always topped off. There is plenty of seating inside the buffet. Lines do get long because it's a popular buffet. Parking is free out in front or in the parking structure. Would recommend if you're looking for a reasonably priced buffet!

    I See Food. We ventured to the AYCE buffet this past March 2026 for their Lobster dinner. NOTES 1. AYCE is located at the Palms Casino. Self-parking available in their garage. 2. The Lobster dinner (per signage at the buffet check-in counter) is on Wednesday and Thursday from 3:00pm to 10:00pm. Cost as of our visit in March 2026 was $79.99 for adults. 3. Reservations are recommended. I believe we made the res for 6:00pm, but we showed up slightly before 5:30pm and we were all allowed to be seated as long as everyone in the party was present. 4. The buffet isn't large when compared to other buffets on the Vegas Strip, i.e. Bacchanal at Caesars or Wicked Spoon as the Cosmopolitan. Well, shall we get to the point? One wants to know about the food, right? The buffet was ok IMHO. Again, it's a smaller buffet, as the Palms is not a Vegas strip property/hotel. Therefore, I suspect they have these special/unique buffet themes to attract diners that are not guests of the Palms. (I.e., there is a prime rib and snow crab dinner on Friday nights). Though we were dining specifically for the lobster, the AYCE has your standard buffet fare, including: salads, fruits, meats, pasta, chicken, etc. We clearly gravitated more towards the lobster, and we mostly returned for the lobster and other seafood TBH. I went back for more lobster, shrimp cocktail, sushi, and salads and fruits. I also tried the pepperoni pizza purely out of curiosity (some YouTubers say buffet pizza is fairly decent). Desserts were also available, as expected, but nothing noteworthy....I don't think I even took any pics of the dessert section. SERVICE It was ok. Our server checked on us throughout the meal. I did appreciate she took the time to clear our table regularly. BOTTOM LINE A decent experience at AYCE. Since it's off the strip, I wouldn't make a special trip or go out of my way to the Palms to dine here, unless I was a guest at the hotel. One and done for me.

    Really nice buffet in The Palms casino. So organized and lots of staff to handle the big crowd. I enjoyed the crab and assorted cuisine. It opens at 11:00 am and required stay is no longer than 90 minutes. Check it out.

    I only saw dessert items marked sugar free and one item vegan. BUT the chefs are right there so you could ask.

    Hello, Are there raw oysters/clams served on the Lobster Nights? Thank you.

    I do not recall seeing raw oysters when we went a couple weeks ago. Lobster (whole and tail), Crab Legs, tail on Shrimp where the stars of the show from what I could see. I will admit, I did not spend any time at the salad bar which is the largest… 

    I searched for reservation for lobster buffet for all of august and nothing. Is it that hard to get in?

    Really enjoyed Wicked Spoon. The crab was super good and honestly one of my favorite things there…read more The whole buffet had a ton of tasty options. Our server was really nice and checked on us a bunch and made sure we were taken care of the whole time.

    I dined at Wicked Spoon for the first time thanks to their Wednesday promotion for Nevada…read moreresidents: just $38 instead of $47 with a state ID. It's a fantastic deal for such a renowned buffet. The highlight of Wicked Spoon is undoubtedly the all-you-can-eat snow crab legs, piled high in the right-hand section of the buffet. They provide crab crackers and cups of hot butter for dipping--convenient and delicious. There is also smoked salmon served with cream cheese, capers, onions, and tomatoes; small plates like tuna crudo and beef carpaccio are incredibly fresh and appetizing. The dessert selection is extensive: beignets, crème brûlée, cookies, cakes, brownies, chocolate-dipped strawberries, marshmallows, tiramisu, chocolate mousse, fresh fruit, candy, panna cotta, Black Forest cake, and much more. The crème brûlée here is truly outstanding. They also offer 18 varieties of premium gelato; Thai iced tea and blood orange were my personal favorites. The service staff is friendly and attentive. They brought a full bottle of cold water to the table without me even asking, and were quick to take orders for soda, coffee, beer, wine, and cocktails. There are simply too many dishes to try and list in a single review. However, given the promotional price and the quality of the food, Wicked Spoon is definitely worth a return visit.

    I'd been thinking about this meal since my first pan roast in June…read more I arrived at the Palace Station Casino on Saturday. We got in the Oyster Bar Line at 11:34AM. Reading previous reviews, I saw some people stating that they waited two hours so I was mentally preparing. It seemed as though there were about 15 people in front of us in line so I was hoping it would go fast. We ended up getting seated at 12:59pm. So it was about an hour and a half for us. Victoria was our server and she was on top of it! Immediately when we sat down, she handed us two sourdough bread rolls, some butter, and the menus. She asked us what we wanted to drink and my partner ordered a draft beer, whereas I just had my water from my water bottle. She then asked us if we needed some time to look at the menu or if we were ready and after an hour and a half wait, we were well prepared with what we wanted to order. We ordered a dozen of the gulf oysters, and two pan roasts. One pan roast was the combo (level 2) and the other was the palace pan roast (level 3). When both pan roasts came out they were HOT, but that was not stopping us from shoving every bite of deliciousness into our mouths. Having had the palace pan roast in the past, and now trying the combo pan roast, I really did enjoy the combo better because I'm more of a seafood person. My partner had the palace pan roast for the first time and he instantly understood why I was raving about it for months. There's just something about the tomatoey, creamy, bisque like consistency mixed with some white rice that I just can't describe other than perfect. This is what you dream about on a cold fall day. I've personally always enjoyed the level 2 spice level, because I don't find it to be spicy or painful at all, but the man in front of us in line said he prefers 5. I like that you're able to customize it because everyone has a different spice tolerance and what everyone finds enjoyable is subjective per person. My partner and I ended up ordering an extra side of rice when it became apparent that the one side each would not be enough for us. He loves his rice, and I only take nibbles, so he usually eats mine. However, for this meal, I was not sharing my rice, so he had to order another side. Overall- highly recommend. The food is well worth the wait. After being in line for an hour and a half it's hard to be grumpy when the service is so efficient & friendly and the food taste this good.

Level 6 has a nice kick while still allowing you to fully enjoy all the flavors. Level 10 is the spiciest option if you're looking for more heat. The unlimited white rice and sourdough bread were the perfect additions to the dish. Everything was delicious and satisfying. Tip: Make sure you arrive with enough time, as there can sometimes be a wait to be seated. It's definitely worth the wait!

    I want to sincerely extend my gratitude to Arlette, who was our server and absolutely amazing from…read morestart to finish. She was incredibly efficient, attentive, kind, and genuinely made us feel so welcomed. I had requested something and asked if it could be brought out before my food got cold, and Arlette literally went above and beyond, she had the cooks grill it quickly so I could enjoy everything while it was still hot. That level of care and attention is something you don't experience everywhere. The food was absolutely delicious, but honestly, Arlette made it taste even better. The way she treated us, her warmth, and the effort she put into making sure we had a great experience made our meal that much more special. Arlette is truly an asset to this restaurant. She deserves to be recognized for her exceptional service and genuine hospitality. Thank you, Arlette, for making our experience so memorable!

    After watching the magnificent opening performance of "Disney's Beauty and the Beast" at The Smith…read moreCenter, Diane and I drove to The Palazzo for another highly anticipated post-play dinner here. This time I was determined not to over-order like I have in the past. I began with something I had never eaten before--General Tso's Cauliflower--just to try it. This starter was well made, but I didn't like it. The spicy Soy Garlic Sauce that coated and blackened the white Cauliflower overpowered the more subtle taste of the vegetable. So, while eating this app I missed the traditional pot-cooked steamed variety of Cauliflower that I commonly slather with butter. Sometimes making it simple and unadorned is better than fancifying a dish. Then, besides again downing a whole loaf of Cracked Sourdough Bread with butter, I enjoyed Chicken Lettuce Wraps as my entree, while Diane had Cafe Beef Wellington, which was initially served without puff pastry. This was rectified, and then she very much liked her choice of main, along with included Mashed Potatoes and Madeira Wine Sauce. The chunks of chicken to be inserted in the lettuce cups were moist, and the lettuce was fresh and green. Accompanying Asian Sauce and Mustard Sauce contributed to a fine meal. I filled six lettuce cups, ate four of them, and took two of them home for a welcome lunch. Service by Shalesa P. was slow on initially receiving requested butter, but very good from then on. And table seating in an inner room was quite comfortable.

    When in Vegas if your planned restaurant does not work out for whatever reason, there are do many…read moreAsian restaurants in the Chinatown area, you'll always have one nearby to be able to go to. So that's what happened to us when we were supposed to try a popular Japanese BBQ spot nearby, but with a two hour wait, it would not work out for us. So, we fell in to this AYCE Hot Pot place which turned out to be an excellent surprise. Staff here from the host to the ones that take your orders and especially the food runners are very much on top of their game. Anything ordered from the kitchen came out within minutes. You are never without any meats to cook or sushi to eat. The self serve vegetable bar, sauce bar, and other accompaniments are up to you. Such a large variety of options. The hotpot burner is so fast, it reaches a boil quickly and you're on to preparing your creation of soup with noodles, seafood, vegetables, and meats that it's endless, or all you can handle. Definitely worth it and it was good we discovered it.

You get all the hotpot options you'd want, but the bonus is their sushi is genuinely good too, not just an afterthought. We always leave stuffed to the point of needing a nap. Pro tip: they're right next to Sunright Tea Studio, so if you've somehow got room left after hotpot, it's the perfect dessert/drink follow-up. Perfect one-two punch for a Vegas food night. Highly recommend if you're looking for solid hotpot without breaking the bank!
