As of last week, the new lobster buffet price is $79.95.
Yes, I saw that, 😔. Disappointing, but inevitable given today's conditions. Thanks for supporting our channel, 😁
Sure sign that the food at an ethnic restaurant is great: the vast majority of the patrons are of that ethnicity.
Absolutely! We have a review of a Chinese place coming out soon and every time we've been there we're the only non Asian guests...can there be any doubt of it's authenticity? I think not. Thanks for watching and commenting! 😁😁
holy cow your reviews are SO GOOD!! you add in prices, you mention specials and deals, and review so many dishes!! thank you for your wonderful channel!
Thank you! And, thanks for watching and supporting our channel!! 😁😁
wow, SO thorough. i know just what (and what not) to order! thanks for this great video!
Thank you, Dan! Glad we can help you make good choices, 😋😋. Thanks for watching and commenting, 😁😁
The prime rib tonight 08/27/24 was not good at all. Had way better in Las Vegas Art
s with most buffets it can vary quite a lot from day to day, but I've been very infrequently disappointed with the prime rib at Southpoint. One thing I have begun to notice is you are better off going very early in the day and when there isn't some type of event going on at the hotel, such as the rodeo events. Anyway, thanks for watching and commenting..it's much appreciated!!
Definitely not Maine lobster. If it was the buffet would cost $400
Umm, it definitely WAS Maine Lobster. Maine lobster doesn't have to be from Maine. Maine lobster (aka Atlantic Lobster) is a variety of lobster found along the Northeast coast from Newfoundland to New Jersey. Although, they have recently increased the price...but not to $400, just to $80. Thanks for watching!
Love Dim Sum... The closest restaurant to me is about 4 hours away... Omg and I ssure am craving right now.
Ohh, sorry to hear it's such a trek to get Dim Sum!! Well, sounds like a good time to schedule a trip to Vegas where Dim Sum abounds! 😁😁😋😋
8/26/2024 $80 now
Yes, I saw that. Sad day, but everything is going up these days, 😔😔
Yum!
Indeed 😋😋
I love fat choy❤. I didn't know it was featured on Diners,Drive ins and Dives.
This Italian spot sounds amazing!
Yes! Very good, 😋😋
That prime rib looked great. But all kidding aside, how can the prime rib be so good, and the rest of the food be so bad?
I guess they feel it's there main draw and so it better be good. But, we've done a follow up review about a month ago and the overall quality HAS greatly improved! Check it out: czcams.com/video/TSXPGS31UMU/video.html Thanks for watching and commenting!! 😁😁
@@LetsEatVegas I have to admit, that looks good, even better. The prime rib looks like the star, with the edge-to-edge pink. I would guess they do a reverse sear, low temp for a long time, long rest, then a quick high sear. Just guessing. Great video.
Yes, they've really improved over the last few years, particularly the desserts. They used to be pretty bad but now much better. As for the prime rib, as with most buffets it can vary quite a lot, but I've been very infrequently disappointed with the prime rib there. One thing I have begun to notice is you are better off going very early in the day and when there isn't some type of event going on at the hotel, such as the rodeo events. Anyway, thanks for watching and commenting...greatly appreciate it!!
Great review my friend.. just got back from Vegas. 6 nights at the Rio. Funny seeing this review. Local friends took us to Bootleggers on Wednesday! Excellent from the ambiance, food and service. Had the veal marsala, very good . The calamari and mussels were also on point as our apps ! Marinara was also great. I like to jazz it up with crushed red pepper for the calamari. Also went to the Garden Buffet on your recommendation primarily for the prime rib ! Excellent actually went twice . That South Point is a mega casino wow . Absolutely packed. Have you been to the oyster bar ? It was jammed not a seat available.... also went to Nora's Italian on W. Flamingo. Went on Monday night and I thought it was a Friday packed. Got in rite away though in the back patio . Delightful seating. Had the calamari app with a bowl of thier marinara, wow even better than Bootleggers and thiers was good. So I ordered 16oz bone in veal chop parm ! I was in heaven being a parm guy from east coast. My partner got the regular veal parm which was also on point as well . Great service and ambience. And of course prices were normal (if thier is a normal nowadays). Lol . Avoid the strip at all costs ...❤❤❤
Wow...that all sounds great! Nora's is on our list of places to check out so glad to hear you liked it. Yes, Southpoint is quite the spot these days...we go there often when a prime rib fixe is needed, lol. Thanks for supporting our channel!! 💖💖
Hi guys. I've heard so many good things about Bootgeggers. Yum, the Calamari friti. It's also so good here in Morro Bay. Hugs, Karla in Cali.
Thank you , Karla! Yes, don't miss out on Bootlegger if you get a chance...especially the calamari, 😋😋. Thanks for supporting our channel, 😁😁💖
Haven’t been in awhile but have they done anything with the cigarette smoke. Always had to change clothes it was so bad but the food was good.
Sadly, there is still cigarette smoke, however, I'm pretty sensitive to that type of thing and I've never felt I had to change clothes when I left. But, I understand your issue, 😔
KEEP UP YOUR GREAT WORK....I ALWAYS WATCH YOUR VIDEOS.....I LOVE YOUR HONESTY....
Thank you very much and thank you for supporting out channel, 😁😁
Bootleggers used to have a great deal family dinner for $55 on Uber eats. 4 huge chicken parm with pasta bread and salad. Then they got rid of the pasta salad and bread for same price. Not cool.
Wow, that was a good deal. I guess the economy in recent years has made that type of thing impossible to continue, 😔
Have you dined at Ferraro’s ? It is incredible, and it is worth flying out from Cleveland.
Have not been there yet, but it's on our list! Thanks for the reminder and thanks for watching, 😁
You should do your recipes
We do have two videos on our channel in which I show a few recipes! We have decided not to continue to do that, however, as it confuses CZcams, lol
These videos are so 80s nostalgic dam
😁😁 Thanks for watching!
You went there and didn't get the stuffed mushroom appetizer? And Pizza Rock has better calamari.
Well, you can't order everything! I love stuffed mushrooms but had other things on my mind to try their. Next time I'll definitely get them. As for Pizza Rock, yes, have had theirs and it's very good as well.
Honest reviews from a professional chef- priceless! Great video. So many people ask for relatively affordable Italian America restaurants in Las Vegas and the issue of cost comes up, nice that Bootlegger offer some serious options. The restaurant field is hard for a reason- consistently maintaining quality, taste, service after many years is very difficult so its not a deal breaker that the service was kind of a miss.
Good point...there was a sense of the employees having an "ok, I've done this a million times" attitude. But, at least they were professional. Thanks for watching!
Thanks for an honest review
Always, 😁😁. Thanks for watching!
Give me Alfredo sauce
Agreed! I love Alfredo sauce, 😋😋
I'm not really a marinara fan .
Hmmm, didn't know that was a thing, lol
Lol yeah, its the tomato base that gets me.@LetsEatVegas
Thank you ! 😊
You're very welcome! Thanks for watching and commenting, 😁😁
We enjoyed our first and only visit to the first Esthers location. Haven't had a chance to return.
If you liked it then I'm sure you'll like their new location as well!
What's with the excessive amount of cheese on everything?
They'll put on as little or as much as you like. Thanks for watching.
What's w the contempt towards others who aren't like you?
@@bryanryan4504 WTF!
@@bryanryan4504 I could ask you the same question.
The name Bootlegger conjured up several ideas but not an Italian restaurant that’s for sure…. Another wonderful review. That impersonation of a Lasagna was a far cry from a real an Italian one that’s for sure!!!! The other food looked amazing!!! Congrats on hitting 7 K you guys are rockin it!!!!
Same! I had heard of this place for a number of years and never thought it was an Italian restaurant. Glad I decided to look into it more and give them a try, 😋😋
Well if you think prohibition and Al Capone, their you have it ?!! I also had to think about that one ..
@@johnkovalicky3389 Good call on that one!!!!
If the service isn’t wonderful I can’t be there I just want to feel feel welcome I will tip well for having a wonderful time but if you do really care I wouldn’t want to be there ss
Agreed, the service can really diminish the experience, but, if you go with a group you can ignore that and still have a good time!
I’m THERE, next time I’m in Vegas.
You're going to love it! Thanks for watching.😁
Where is your restaurant in Vegas?
No restaurant in Vegas. We had a place in West Hollywood for many years. Thanks for watching!
This food looked amazing and made me so hungry, you were right about the lasagne, it looked really bad.
Same here...I just put up a pan of sauce for tomorrow, lol. Yes, the lasagna was really bad, 😔. But, so many other fantastic food!
I’m with you on dried oregano. I dislike it immensely when over used.Love fresh basil. The majority of the food looked good. Ty for another great review.😊
Thank you, this was a fun review because most of the food was so good! Thanks for supporting our channel, 😁😁
It’s only been, uh, 14 years or so since I’ve been in the Bootlegger. Maybe it’s time to go back. Thanks for the reminder.
Yes, you definitely should! Apart from the cold employees it's very good food!
But not on the strip
I ate a lot of $4.95 steaks at Ellis over the years
Yes, Ellis Island is a great place! Too bad we can't still get those $4.95 steaks, 😔
Buffets (and Daily Specials) are the leftovers from the week before. The prime rib looks bomb. The icing would be if they had Yorkshire Pudding
Yes, sadly I know of no buffet prime rib offerings which include Yorkshire pudding, 😔😔
Best format! I’m not a fan of watching people chow down! Good video!
Yes! Same! Who needs to see food flying all over the place, lol...Thanks for watching and commenting.
Love this channel. Thank you
So glad you're enjoying our channel! New review coming tomorrow, 😁😁
I dont see those prices on their menu?
Hmmm, not sure what to say. Those were the prices at the time we did the review.
Hooray! I will be in Vegas Labor Day weekend!
Welcome to Vegas! You're going to love Fat Choy, 😋😋😁😁
Oooh! I wanna try this place!
😁 You should!! Fantastic Chinese food to be found at Spring, 😋😋. Thanks for watching and commenting, 😁
Staying at Palazzo in Nov. and we’re definitely having the Sunday brunch here. Can’t WAIT!
Hi! I want to warn you that right now LAVO is closed for 're-imagining'. They say they'll be reopening in 'Early Fall' of 2024. I hope their theme stays mostly the same as I love this place, 💖💖😋😋😁😁 Well, I would definitely check out their website or call them as you get closer to your trip to find out what's going on there. Anyway, thanks for watching and commenting!!
Thanks! Yeah, they’re closing for remodeling but will be open in the early fall. I’m definitely doing to call and confirm the closer it gets.
Love discovering hidden gems like this!
If you like old school diners this is the place for you!
The Longhorn is a dump I know i stayed there. The elevator actually knocked me down. Get breakfast there.
Wow, sorry to hear that. Fortunately I was just there for the food and not the elevator ride!
All that food looked delicious!
Thank you 😋, it was!
i was there a couple of weeks ago!!! Rib Eye and Country Steak was delicious!!!!
Yes! And now you've made me hungry, lol. 😋😋😁😁
Thanks for the tips
