Final Thoughts: Comparing to the Competition

The Garden Court Buffet may not have the most luxurious food selections of all the buffets in Las Vegas, but they do excel in other categories. 

They have one of the largest selections for the price, and the quality of food is better than most budget buffets. It’s one of only three buffets in Vegas with a Hawaiian section, next to the Rampart Buffet’s Aloha Night and Wynn Buffet.

Overall, the Garden Court Buffet is the best buffet for families looking for a delicious meal without breaking the bank.

  1. Most Boyd casinos have abandoned their buffet. MSS still exists but has gone downhill. Overpriced and poor quality. Must be new management of food and beverage thatallows such deterioration

  2. ABSOLUTELY AWFUL! OMG!!! Let me first say, the staff was very nice! Very welcoming and kind but the food was gross! The fried chicken was OLD and you can tell it’s been frozen over and over again. The seasoning was off and seemed like it was from a store bought packet. The waffles were gritty. Didn’t even know that was possible. The eggs were cold. The best thing were the biscuits. This meal was $104 and we were all SO disappointed!

  3. We really enjoyed Mainstreet buffets before the pandemic but now that they have brought back this horrible spread that they call a buffet Boyd should be ashamed to open this dining at this ridiculous price. It is not worth even $10. It used to be referred as the Best buffet in Vegas.
    If the food presented was half way decent, we wouldn’t mind paying that price for dinner. Hope you can fix this.
    4/20/23 – Take this seriously.
