- I'm headed to downtown Las Vegas in this video where I'm looking to get some brunch at the Mainstreet Station's Garden Court Buffet. It's been a long time since I've been back to the Garden Court so I'm excited to see how it is!
Thank you for watching!

Are you team buffet or team food hall?

Team Food Hall. I think they're generally safer and cleaner. Also, the food tends to be of better quality.

Going to Vegas next week for birthday. Your channel is incredibly helpful in finding fun food places.
Any recommendations for desserts and cake?
another good video Shin
Thank you very much!
Great video..a shame not all the food was up to par 😢...glad you enjoyed some of the selections you chose 👍...have a great week 😘🤗❤
Yes, it's difficult having consistently good offerings with every dish at a buffet. But I still overall had a good meal and would still recommend anyone who's coming to downtown and looking for a buffet experience to check it out. Thanks for watching!
Team buffet all the way all day!!! I like a bit of everything and a lot of something that I really enjoy! I'm in heaven if a buffet has a traditional thanksgiving dinner.
Yes! Sometimes, I just want range and variety over the very best of something. I'm glad fellow buffet enthusiasts feel like me! Thanks for watching!
me to don't eat for a day or two and hit the all-you-can-eat buffet
For the price point I think the breakfast alone was well worth the price!
Yes! I would definitely go back for a lot of that breakfast! Still probably the best waffle I've had at a buffet. Thanks for watching!
I’d enjoy seeing what the dinner buffet is like. Think it’s very affordable for lunch/Brunch. Ty for the review.
I vlogged the dinner service a little over a year ago and I enjoyed it! I think the menu is pretty similar from then but could be some differences. Thanks for watching!

Won't hurt to review their evening BUFFET again, soon 😋
That Mac N Cheese face had me cracking up. I love a good buffet and will still try it there, I saw bacon!
This is still a great buffet despite 2 dishes not being the best. I really like it at the Garden Court. I'm a no frills kind of guy so it's my vibe. Thanks for watching!
great review ,the food looked mediocre ,but it is piced well for las vegas ,i do love your honesty and your channel
Thank you! It was still an overall positive experience. Just a couple of dishes that I didn't enjoy. I still recommend this buffet. Thanks for watching!
@@VegaswithShin thank you
We were there in June, loved the Hawaiian section. The bread pudding was killer.
The Hawaiian section was really great! Thanks for watching!
Thanks for giving us a look at the more affordable food inVegas! Some hits, some misses!! Appreciate your honesty!!
Plenty more where that came from, especially as my series in downtown continues! Just so much more value on Fremont than the strip. Thanks for watching!
Nice review! The place looks pretty clean, which is a plus.
I loved how clean it was! They did a great job! Thanks for watching!
My Dad and Sister used to love that place. I haven’t been there for many many years . I loved the little round Portuguese sausage they have with eggs and the Hawaiian section. It’s a beautiful place.
Beautiful buffet and the Hawaiian section is really good! Thanks for watching D!
I've been wanting to visit the Garden Court buffet for a while. Just never have the time. Love the review video
It's a good buffet at a fair price. I like it there. Thanks for watching Jerry!
That look after eating the pasta was priceless.
Lol, it was not the face I wanted but it is what it is. Thanks for watching!
THE FOOD LOOKS GOOD. THANKS FOR SHARING ANOTHER AMAZING VIDEO'S. KEEP UP THE MAGNIFICENT JOB 👍🏼😁👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Thank you very much Tracey!
So happy plate 3 was a redeemer. Seems like the "kiddie section" is best to be avoided . I'd be interested in seeing the dinner buffet here as well, if you're able to! Awesome and honest review Shin! ^_^
Hawaiian food was excellent! I did vlog the dinner service about a year and a half ago and it was good! I enjoyed myself. Thanks for watching!
I like how much detail he went into describing why the pizza was mediocre.
This man knows taste.
Appreciate it! I love talking about food. Thanks for watching!
A great price for brunch, quite the variety of foods. Thanks for the review.
Yes! I'm a fan of Main Street Station and the Garden Court. Thanks for watching Karen!
We always go to the Main Street buffet when we visit Vegas. Can't go wrong with the hawaiian section!!
Yes! You really can't! I enjoyed every dish from the Hawaiian section. They were all really tasty! Thanks for watching!
@@VegaswithShin Hawaiian beef stew is usually tomato sauce/paste based with large pieces of carrots, potatoes, celery and meat chunks with dried bay leaves.. some variations add sugar.
Yes! Mr. Shin goes into "All you can eat mode" and creates an awesome video! 💯
Yes! I love eating all I can! Glad you enjoyed! Thanks for watching!
Food Hall can’t eat too much at once also don’t love the idea of serving my own food but this buffet looks cleaner than most! Thanks!
Yes, I really appreciated how clean the stations were. Food halls are becoming the new trend so I think you're going to enjoy the coming changes! Thanks for watching!
Thank you Shin, for your review on the Garden Buffet. We love your video and your recommendations🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
Happy you enjoyed! Thank you so much for watching!
I liked the decor as it appears warm, cozy and inviting. I was very impressed with the cleanliness at the buffet area. A lot better than I have seen in other buffets lines. The Hawaiian meal looked delicious and what a nice surprise for the waffle and French toast to be tasty. Thank you as always! Enjoyed the video.
Yes! Very cozy and inviting. I love the vibe here. Couple of misses but overall I enjoyed myself. Thanks for watching!
I've been watching you for awhile Shin! You're comments on taste, seasoning, makes me cautious of what to get but I'll try it. Love this Garden Court Buffet! Beautiful interior! Love all the food looks so good. Tge over medium egg sounds good, canned corned beef hash I like it, sausage disappointing bland I love spice like you! Potatoes disappointing too. I love French toast and waffles. Strawberry compote and maple syrup. Delicious. I would get scrambled eggs , bacon, French toast with maple syrup!!! Lunch was disappointing to me but I'm glad chicken fried steak saved that plate!!! Pizza I agree need to taste seasoned sauce and crisp colored crust. Have to have butter flavor in the biscuit. WHAT MAC N CHEESE NO FLAVOR? THAT WOULD BE VERY DISAPPOINTING TO ME. THE HAWAIIAN PLATE WAS EXCELLENT I GUESS. The kuloah? pork looked good to me on the buffet, the chicken looked good as well too! Beef Stew looks very good! Yams not a fan but they looked good. My favorites chocolate pudding and banana cream pie!!!! I love all cakes and pies though. Great review Shin. This is a nice buffet clean and food looks delicious!!!
Yes, I really like the Garden Court. The price is right, there are good dishes, and I've never left hungry. I like it there. Thanks for watching!
I Miss the brisket and ham hocks / black eye peas during lunch . Plus all the Asian and mexican sections .
That sounds awesome! I didn't really frequent this buffet prior to the pandemic so I don't know how it used to be. Thanks for watching!
I really enjoyed your video . The way you edited it was great (between food serving ) . Keep up the good work .
Glad you enjoyed! Thank you for watching!
Great review Shin. You had some hits and a couple of misses, but that's probably the case sometimes. Thanks for your honest review, it's always nice when you can truly say if you enjoyed the food or not. Thanks again Shin, I enjoyed watching.
I just call it like I taste it! Still had good food in general. Glad you enjoyed the vlog! Thanks for watching!
Looked pretty good ! Made my mouth water just looking at all the food . I’d eat first then do the review lol . Thanks Shin !
Yes! Glad you liked it Kyle! Thanks for watching!
You are a saint! I was really curious about what they had to offer now, but google photos was not helpful. Thanks for the video!
Happy to help! Thanks for watching!
An honest review. Love it!
Glad you enjoyed! Thanks for watching!
it looks ok ty for sharing
You got it! Thanks for watching Claire!
Love buffets!
I like the presentation of the foods. Main Street sounds like a great place for the non-adventurous to try. The Hawaiian foods looked the best. 😋
Lots of options that I'm sure you can find something you enjoy eating. The Hawaiian section was best for me. Thanks for watching!
Before Covid, the beef stew was Oxtail stew and it was a killer. Sadly it is only available in the coffee shop at the California
Yes, I've heard a lot about the oxtail soup. I'll have to try it when I check out the California. Thanks for watching!
The breakfast plate looked all delicious . The beef stew is so good I love how main street makes sure the Hawaiian dishes remain tasty and well made. Love the review shin❤
Chocolate pudding is life
Yes! The Hawaiian influence in downtown is very noticeable and I'm definitely for it! Thanks for watching!
Love this buffet
Me too! I like it here. Thanks for watching!
Thanks for the detailed review. It looks like the cooks at the Garden Court Buffet can't cook macaroni. When I was there, the Hawaiian section was my favorite. It's a bit of a disappointing review but I think it's still a good deal if you stay away from the pasta station.
Everything else I had was fine! Still the best waffles and French toast I've had at a buffet in a while too. Overall still enjoyed myself here. Thanks for watching!
Good Morning Shin Happy Sunday 😊
Good morning Christine, happy Sunday to you as well!
😊😊I have eaten at the Garden Court since the 1990s. The only thing that has changed is the price and the fact dinner is served only on Friday and Saturday but the have added prime rib. Only buffet downtown and is still worth the price.
Yes! I'll be going back to try out the prime rib for dinner soon! I hope it's good. Thanks for watching!
That chicken noodle soup looked really nice with the fancy noodles. Many of the other items looked good also. Some were obvs not scratch made. I'd try to focus on the scratch made ones (like all/most of the Hawaii section) and many others. Not sure on the biscuits, but the chicken fried steak and the gravy looked like prepared foods that weren't scratch made. Nice video, like to see your smile when something is tasty.
Yes, it was a mix of premade and made from scratch for sure. Appreciate you watching! Thanks!
They get an A for cleanliness and presentation. The food, even though not everything hit the mark was acceptable and not out of character for a buffet. For the price I think they are doing an above average job. Another one well done as always. Look forward to your next adventure.
Yes! Great for the price and I was very happy with the cleanliness as well. Thanks for watching!
When I win money I go to Bacchanal and when I lose money I go to Garden Court.
I live in central Florida and I never been to Las Vegas. However if l was starving for days, does it really matter?
@@user-er3ri6sc3j Of course it does. If you're starving and broke you're obviously not going to choose the much more expensive high end Bacchanal Buffet over an affordable choice like Garden Court.
@@boxscorewatcher413 I get your point. Your original comment was funny.
You'll get a good meal at both! Thanks for watching!
So what happens if you break even do you end up at MGM Grand buffet 😂😂😂
How was the sausage patty? I may have missed it. Pizza looked like frozen De Dinero’s. Overall decent I guess. I love chick fried steak and gravy, omg. That one looks good.
I didn't try the sausage patty this time around. Just the round rope sausage and the bacon. I still had a good meal. I recommend this place for anyone staying downtown and looking for an all you can eat option. Thanks for watching!
What’s up Shin. What is your favorite restaurant in Vegas? Thanks for posting. The mac and cheese comment was hilarious 😂😂😂
My favorite restaurant in Vegas is McDonald's and I'm not saying that facetiously. But if we're talking about the strip, Bazaar Meats ranks very highly for me. Thanks for watching Ryan!
@@VegaswithShin
Mc Donald's ... I will PASS them up for FOOD QUALITY, now PRICE, and employee PAY. TOO, I do NOT like the VERY POOR DEAL the two Brothers got out of the "deal" with Ray Kroc.
Loved that movie on netflix.. yeah, Ray Kroc got the better end of the stick
@@Variety1985
I am so glad I found this video. We'll be coming out for the first time in years next month and Main Street station was on our list for sure. What are difference. The food used to be so good and it looks great and it tastes great and now it looks like 💩😆
There were still good dishes here and it could have just been an off day when it comes to the pasta dishes. I overall still enjoyed my meal. Thanks for watching!
That's the last buffet downtown. For many many years it was the only comps my Mom got so we ate there every time! Decent buffet for the price, but not super delicious. It's pretty amazing how the people of Hawaii have influenced the cuisine choices downtown. Across the street at the Cal is Aloha Specialties. Go get the best won ton min Vegas offers!
Yes, lots of Hawaiian influence in the downtown space, and I'm a fan for it! Really enjoyed the Hawaiian dishes at the buffet. Thanks for watching!
It used to wayyyyy better imo.
I didn't really visit prior to the pandemic so I'm ignorant to how it was before. I'll just have to take you at your word for it! Thanks for watching!
Good to see the low-end buffets reviewed. This could be a nice alternative to going to some chain restaurant for lunch, however, the value proposition is not nearly as good as it should be. Considering all of this food either comes in frozen or is from a can (including the chocolate pudding), this buffet should *never* be more than $20 for lunch or $25 for dinner. At the prices they are charging, this food is simply not good enough. So NO, this place is not well-worth it.
I'm with you on that. $20 for brunch would feel a lot more fair, but as the last all you can eat buffet in downtown, if one is looking for pure variety and quantity, Main Street does the job. Thanks for watching Mike!
Thank you for the review this was a pass just looking at the food display.
Happy to save you the trip! Thanks for watching!
I'm team buffet
Me too! Thanks panjo!
Shin is always descriptive .
I try to be! Thanks for watching!
Most buffets have weak dishes. Most of what you liked are the things I would choose. The price is good, so maybe.
It's the cheapest buffet in the Vegas tourist spaces and you will definitely get full. I like their weekend dinner buffet much more than their brunch. Thanks for watching!
Liver and onions ❤❤❤❤❤
I've had very good liver and onions, and very bad ones too lol. Thanks for watching!
I went here last time I was in LV. The salad station was really good and the apple crepe was amazing. But other than that, I didn’t think the buffet was that good and definitely not worth the money
I feel you. For me, sometimes there's just more value to quantity with range/variety and a buffet fills that need for me. Thanks for watching!
I am glad someone feels the same way I do! Before Covid, this buffet was good and at a good price. I was there this past Augest for their lunch buffet and it had doubled in price and was by far the worst Las Vegas buffet I had post Covid. I talked to the servers and the seating staff and they said many of their customers feel the same way!
I'm 100% team buffet, but it kinda sounds like this buffet wasn't all that great? I have never gone there, and I've been to many buffets, but had it on my list. Maybe I'll put at the very bottom LOLLL :):)
I wouldn't say it's the best in Vegas but I did have some very good dishes. I think their dinner service is better than the brunch. Thanks GL!
Okay, awesome, thank you!@@VegaswithShin
Yqw buddy 😊
😀
It's a value buffet, the price pretty much gives it away. I liked the Wynn buffet, but you had to pay for it.
Yep! For the price, I still think this buffet is solid! If you can afford the Wynn buffet though, I'd recommend it 10/10 times over Main Street. Thanks for watching!
Forgive me, Shin, for not knowing this. But is your heritage Hawaiian?
No, I am of Korean heritage! Thanks Lucia!
And your face when eating the penne. LOLLLLL But I'm all for a place that can cook up a good chicken fried steak!!!🤣😂🤣😂🤣
Yes, the chicken fried steak was so good! It could have just been an off day with the pasta. Thanks for watching!
Okay, good to know, thank you!!@@VegaswithShin
I probably would have headed for the smoked salmon to get my money's worth. the rest looked pretty lackuster
Not a bad strategy at all! Thanks for watching!
TEAM BUFFET
YESSSSSS !
SORRY ... you had SEVERAL MISSES on this BUFFET but it's good to have an HONEST REVIEW 👍
It's not always amazing but overall I'd still say I had a good meal. Thanks for watching!
the site of that penne marinara broke my heart :(
The pizza is probably their best Italian offering. Thanks for watching!
I wanted to like the lunch buffet. I didn't. Just not enough flavor in most of the dishes. The staff was amazing though. I may give dinner a try.
The dinner recently added prime rib I hear! I'll have to give it a shot at some point as well. Thanks for watching!
I love the food halls but always go to one really good buffet. When I went to this one, I liked the cornbread, just the cornbread. I am a Wicked Spoon fan!
LOL yes! I think Wicked Spoon is easily a few notches above Main Street Station. Thanks for watching!
I would like a whole pie, please... and a fork... and then don't bother me for about half-an-hour...
LMAOOOOOO !
All frozen processed food there. Kinda like a school cafeteria
There are definitely similarities from overall cafeteria food certainly. Thanks for watching!
Food Hall. The food looked so sad. And for someone who was 80 and wanted to pay $7 bucks for it.
Food halls are definitely the new rage. Thanks for watching!
Bfst at Golden Corral is way better
Never been to a golden corral before. I'll have to try it. Thanks!
Simple to make foods that did not taste good ..either bad cooks or bad management or cheaply made. What a shame and than they wonder why the restaurant closes
I don't think they're in any danger of closing lol and it could have just been a bad day or on the line for too long. Thanks for watching!
The food looked all frozen
I'd definitely sat some of it is for sure. Thanks for watching!
It’s definitely a 20 dollar buffet
Certainly is. Thanks for watching!
That Buffet is a tie for the nastiest buffet in Vegas with the one at South Point
Aw lol, I like both of those buffets lmao. Thanks for watching!
@@VegaswithShin my brother I am a classically trained chef. And the quality of these two buffets suck. They are just cheap. But I'm going to be honest with you we actually like the brunch buffet that they have every day at the Excalibur. Our Fav is WYNN Buffet st dinner. And seriously if you live Sushi Seafood you must try the Japanese buffet Makino at dinner (omg) my teen daughters as soon as we get to Vegas are like "Dad Makino" lol now I go back and forth living between Los Angeles and Vegas. My daughter was raised eating all kinds of food. I actually know the owner of Makino in the 80s he owned a chain Japanese sushi and seafood buffets in CA. Also we tried Imperial Sushi Seafood buffet and it was good but the Sushi selection was not as big as Makino and after a couple rounds it all tasted the same. But I hear Imperial has a new owner and it's gotten better. So we are going to give it another try soon. But for sure my friend you must try Makino buffet at dinner soon.
@@vegasone yes, I agree that the Excalibur buffet is a very good value! I have not been to the Makino in Vegas but I used to go to the one in Irvine CA once a month or so for lunches years ago and they were good. I'll have to check them out here!
I’ll skip that buffet food looked Mid😂
Happy to save you the trip! Thanks for watching!
Never heard of liver and onions mac and cheese 🤢
Liver and onions is an American classic! Very strong iron taste. The mac and cheese was unfortunate this visit. I have to believe it was just that batch. I'm sure it's better other days. Thanks for watching!
@@VegaswithShin
LIVER and ONIONS are not often seen on a buffet ... I would try them 😋
not much variety..no seafood or asian stuff..no creme brulee either..i'll stick with magnlia at 4 queens when im in freemont!
I love Magnolias. The gumbo is so good! Thanks for watching!
MSS no longer has good food and it a poor value. Try South Point if you want both.
South Point was my go to buffet before I started CZcams. I was probably there twice a week at least. If I lived closer to downtown, I'd probably be here more often. Thanks for watching!
Buffet $7. Toilet Paper (per roll) $150
There's always a left hand with warm water and soap.
That's some insane pooping. The water bill must be crazy from all the flushing. Thanks for watching!
🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮

WOW YOU'RE SLUMMING
Slumming? What does this mean?
Love Fremont everytime i come that where i stay
Yes! I didn't go downtown too often as a tourist before I moved to Vegas but now that I go more often, I love it there too! Thanks for watching!
A lot of things like salad and dressings don’t need special introductions. Don’t waste our time on this.
Appreciate the feedback but you're wrong. Thanks for watching!
@@VegaswithShin if that’s the case let me explain paint drying. You will find this fascinating. LOL
@rayjuneau1120 if I clicked on a paint drying video, I'd expect it. If you click on a buffet video, you'll see the buffet.
