    I had a bad feeling about the buffet when I saw how sloppily-maintained the serving dishes were and how shriveled the sausages looked- and that was just in the opening shots. Nobody is wiping up the spills around the food and a lot things look dried out or empty. That buffet is not worth $5. Unrefrigerated cream puffs, too, just in a basket. Aargh, don't keep eating the cold eggs, Derek! I will absolutely pass on this buffet! Thanks for taking it for the team Derek and Catherine!

    That is a health code violation . Notice the omelette chef pulled a thermometer out of his shirt. Very dangerous to serve eggs cold like that!I am a retired chef. They will dry out or spoil before they get to any temp that is safe. Once you determined they were cold you should not have kept eating them. I am thinking they were yesterday’s leftover, refrigerated and were going to be passed off as fresh! Someone on the line ( lazy) didn’t bother to heat them thinking the steam tray would get them hot! 🤢I will definitely pass on this one

    • @Chaptersaudio
      @Chaptersaudio Před 2 lety +8

      Since the buffet only operates Wed-Sun, and Derek said it was Wednesday.....maybe last Sunday's scrambled eggs were frozen and were put out partially thaw. Whatever the case, Luxor is a dump. I wouldn't eat an any restaurant there nor sleep in their beds. I'd bet $26.99 they have bed bugs too. I saw the icky room when Annette (the poker player) stayed there. Looks on par with a Motel 6 in Barstow.

    I think the underground Raiders of the Lost Ark-esque dining room that hasn't changed since the 1993 opening is still great to experience as a vestige of the theme trend of the 90's. In fact the theming for this buffet is so on point even the food is as dry and salty as the Egyptian desert.

    • @frankyu553
      @frankyu553 Před 2 lety +2

  • @imjusthereforthecomments4920

    It surprises me that there wasn’t someone temping every dish and recording the results. And what did the omelette cook sanitize his probe with, a wet cloth he had sitting around? They also need an attendant to circle the buffet with some sanitizer and wipe up the spills.

    Just wanted to share this with you...I broke my leg on a broken sidewalk going to check-in at Caesars, so we were very limited but still went ahead and saw shows and made most of our reservations (we were celebrating our 28th wedding anniversary). I gotta tell you Lavo's weekend brunch was one of our favorites, they were sooo nice, and the food was incredible!!! We also enjoyed Nine Fine Irishmen, and Hugo's Cellars (although broke leg right after we left and didn't get to enjoy the steak....it was my leftovers), Chicago Pub was great, and the High Roller with the bar was FABULOUS (GET THE BAR)!! Bacchanal Buffet although waitress was nice, the one seating us was quick to tell me that I would be in the way and I needed to use crutches so my husband ran the whole time (try caring a plate and crutches?) and that would have been fine, if she hadn't let someone at least 20 years younger than me go along with her scooter (she almost ran over one man and was driving crazy...she had a wrap around her knee and honestly didn't look like she was hurting at all?) I'm gonna tell you ...breaking your leg and having to use Handicapped for everything really opens your eyes!! The places we LOVED, we above and beyond and shows Criss Angel and Absinthe will work with you to help you. I normally get around just fine...so maybe this will help someone with mobility issues?

    I ate at the MGM Buffet this week and would be interested in your opinion before declaring Luxor the champion. I needed a steak knife for the pancakes and the gravy for biscuits and gravy was nothing more than brown colored water. While any buffet can have heating issues, I do admit having popcorn puts Luxor in a whole new category. I do believe closing the buffet at 3pm does cut down on the number of health code violations.

    My 2nd biggest concern for our upcoming Vegas trip (next to Covid) is the understaffed facilities. I also believe that a lot of the restaurants are using very new/green staff and they haven't worked out the finer details of preparing/serving food. This is my impression of part of the problem that you guys experienced. Either that or there is a severe inventory shortage and they only have popcorn to serve!!!!!

    Luxor was built by Circus Circus Enterprises which owned Circus Circus and Excalibur and later became Mandalay Resorts Group when they built Mandalay Bay.
    At the time the Luxor buffet was a step above Excalibur which was a step above Circus Circus.
    The Luxor buffet was originally on the casino level. There was a replica of King Tut's tomb where the buffet is now located.
    The tomb was moved to the attraction level above the casino. The tomb is now history like so many of Luxor's original attractions
    (does anyone remember the Nile River ride?).

    Derek, you are always so pleasant and polite no matter the situation. Kudos to you for that. This buffet is screaming to me to STAY AWAY. Not only is it over priced and under delivered, I don't want to take up real estate space in my tummy for a good buffet. This is an eggs, eggs and more eggs buffet with popcorn on the side.....all for $26.99! LOL

    I love Luxor. It’s a cheap but great place to stay that’s pretty much on the strip. My biggest gripe is there are not a lot of great food options. The Cantine is okay but the rest is pretty average. The buffet was closed a couple weeks ago when I went. I guess I lucked out lol.

    Not shocking that buffet has always been bad. Tried two times never again. It’s worse than Golden Corral. Just stick to wicked spoon at cosmo. Perfect everything including service and the best desserts on any buffet. I rather pay $38 for great food than $27 for what you were offered. Mystery food is never good.

    Looks pretty typical for buffets you can win a free or BOGO comp for if you play a little while with your player's club card. They're usually pretty blah.

    I remember when this buffet was $15 and it was a rough go then. Luxor has been lousy since Cathouse replaced the Sacred Sea Room and Isis. However if you're stuck there for breakfast, the pancake pyramid at the breakfast-only coffee shop is fun and better than the buffet food. But I've eaten everywhere in the place from here to Tender and restaurants inbetween and the food court and maybe T&T are the only places I'd consider now.

Hopefully the manager of the buffet will see your video and step it up a notch. Or I guess I should say several notches.

    Hey hi, Derek and Catherine and I I don’t know what to say. The food did not look very appetizing, but I think you both made the best of a bad situation, and tried to accentuate the positive, but was very difficult because everything seem not to be prepared at the correct temperature, but I will say that is the problem with most buffets the food is ice cold, so you want to go to the stations where they could put some thing in a pan or on a grill and serve it up hot and you have to improvise which you both done very well I don’t think either of you will make a bad video. It’s just when you go to someplace and the food is not quite up to par the way you describe it will help the viewer whether it’s in a good sense or the bad sense‘s not all food is going to be great and taste great, and you learn from that anyway, you did the best you could and I enjoyed the video anyway

  • @mmasque2052
    @mmasque2052 Před 2 lety +6

    When it first was constructed and opened, Luxor was owned by the same company that ran Circus Circus and the Excalibur. And it’s buffet was (barely) a step above those for quality; at least no hamburgers or hot dogs on the line. Breakfast was okay not a definite skip for lunch or dinner. Oddly, when the Monte Carlo, now Park MGM, was being built, it was a collaboration between a Steve Wynn and Circus Circus and the speculation was over which side of that spectrum that it’s buffet would take after. At first, it was closer to Mirage and Treasure Island (Wynn properties at the time) and, later, it was much closer to the Circus Circus level of (lack of ) quality.

    The fruit probably is plastic. I hear that industrial whining noise in the buffet area from the last time you reviewed Luxor Buffet. I couldn’t imagine being a line cook or server having to listen to that all day. So happy that you are revisiting some buffets as they reopen.
