This was was basic and the salad was . And they charge a 3% fee for using credit cards to pay.Came here after seeing the place on Diners Drive ins and Drives. I don't even know what Guy tasted that I didn't. Didn't even appear appetizing on sight but maybe food don't always convey taste by looks alone. It's a buffet too, meaning that they probably cook the food by the pounds and then serve it. I musta missed that on Triple D. I am not snooty, but I do enjoy good home cooking. This ain't it.

Small place. Nothing fancy, very casual. Appeared to be a local favorite. Lots of Mediterranean food to choose from.Price is very reasonable. Would come back again the next time I am in Las Vegas.

I'm a fan of all you can eat, but this buffet is overhyped! The Youtube vids that covered this restaurant were misleading because about half of the food were below average.10/31/2024. Plate #1: Lamb shank: was tender and in a flavored garlic and onion broth that is an easy 4/5 stars overall.Rice, fish, and chicken Sharma: were the other standouts, as they were fairly seasoned and tender, 3.5/5 stars.Shrimp: was fishy, and unappealing, 0/5 stars.Plate #2.Kabobs: tasted off as if they were made out of veggies or soy and were bland, 0/5 stars. Chickens: were dry and bland, 1/5 stars.White fish: was fishy this time in round 2. Took a bite for an unwanted surprise, 0/5 stars. Soup: was decent, but not good enough to save this sad buffet, 3.5/5 stars.Hummus: typical creamy texture with a hint of seasoning, 3.5/5 stats.Desserts: Baklava: this was sweet and flaky with pistachios that make this amusing, 5/5 stars!Mini cream puffs: your basic puff pastry with cream filling, 3.5/5 stars.Rice pudding: this was mildly sweet, 3/5 stars.Either the quality went down since the Youtube vids were filmed, or were the content creator's just dishonest? Regardless, I cannot recommend that you spend your money and time here.

Food: DeliciousService: GreatAmbiance: Feels like homeMy hubby ate in Las Vegas celebrating his birthday! While here we wanted to try restaurants that were recommended by bloggers and Ytubers! I will definitely give you my honest opinion. Wr tried, the butter chicken, meatballs, lamb shank, cucumber salad and a few other items! All were really good. Every dish had a great flavor and tasted fresh! I definitely recommend this place! It's solid!

$20 buffet in Vegas?? That's cheaper than a shawarma Sandwhich! Honestly did not expect this to be as good as it was for a cheap buffet! Fresh kabobs, lamb shank, shrimp, salmon, bunch of sides like wow! Glad we tried it! Totally worth the price!

We loved this place. This was a small place that we took a car to get to after watching multiple rave reviews for affordable buffet before our big trip to Vegas. In the background they play up their visit with Guy Fieri Triple D's visit. We were excited to go to a place that was affordable and that had a lot of fresh options. We were here on the mid morning side where it look like it was mostly locals and just us as a family of 4. There's one lamb shank/person but I personally think that's plenty. Everything was fresh and the place was very clean. My only hope is that I'll be able to visit this place again! Honestly I wish I had a place like this near me!

Idk if it was an off day but nothing had flavor at all. Kebabs, shawarma, butter chicken, lamb shank all flavorless and the veggies didn't taste fresh or crunchy

It's a hidden gem place! Super cute and the food is authentic and delicious. Will back there again for sure!

Went there to sample the lunch buffet for $20 to include drinks (lemonade or cold Mediterranean flavored ice tea). The lamb shank (1 per person) was tasty and tender. The beef and chicken kabob were freshly grilled and flavorful. There was a variety of other dishes that I sampled, all were very good. This maybe the best bargain for Mediterranean food in Vegas.
