1. The Red Rock buffet is one of the better for a much better price. Well the Red Rock casino is about 20 minutes off the strip, it's worth the visit just for the buffet. I have daily specials and if you are rewards member discounted.
2. Red Rock Canyon Casino and Spa, Las Vegas: See 39 unbiased reviews of Red Rock Canyon Casino and Spa, rated 4 of 5 on Tripadvisor and ranked #1,260 of 5,179 restaurants in Las Vegas.

Ah… So beautiful for its price but… Located in the West Charleston area of Las Vegas, just before Red Rock Canyon, this off-Strip buffet is one you may want to go to if you don’t mind the 15 minutes drive from the famous Las Vegas Strip (the main casino area); this because just everybody who comes to the Red Rock Buffet leaves more than satisfied, no matter what their eating preferences are. Information on their free shuttle at the bottom. Is the buffet any good?

I do, when I go to Red Rock Resort, and it’s all of six minutes from my house. Red Rock Resort's bowling center. My favorite casino turns 10 on April 18, but it doesn’t look anywhere near that. Red Rock Casino is an absolutely amazing place, far above anything you find on the strip. We rented the One-Eighty Suite for our wedding reception and it was perfect. The decor and presentation was amazing, RRC's staff were so helpful throughou.

It used to be almost exceptional but it’s lately plummeted in quality. It’s certainly still good value for money, especially during weekends when most other buffets are ridiculously expensive. Here you can eat for pocket change; at Red Rock Hotel and Casino they do try to attract you away from the Strip with a very affordable buffet which however offers a good variety of dishes and foods of good quality. The atmosphere and the décor are also tastefully put together, oozing modern yet classic beauty; you won’t feel that you are in a ‘depressing’ or ‘cheap’ place here (which you may feel at some of the other cheap Vegas options), despite it being a ‘value’ buffet. They even offer an unusually large number of highly comfortable, elegant booths. Absolutely beautiful. But what about the food?

The Food: of the budget buffets in Vegas, Red Rock is one of the very best, in the same group as Palms and, for a few dollars more, the huge and delicious Studio B (though the latter is more affordable for midweek lunch). Let’s see why:

The salad bar has a better-than-average range of lettuces, even better than Mirage and Bellagio, from delicious ready-made to make-yourself, accompanied to good dressings and, just next to it, a good variety of fresh fruit and vegetables. The quality of these fresh ingredients is good, unlike at other budget buffets, so you will not be disappointed here even if you are a ‘picky’ fresh salad-lover like us. Just to compare it with its main competitor (so to speak), if you love ready-made salads and delicious Tabbouleh in particular (to mix with your salad), Palms buffet may still be better for you. What about the rest of the food?

You will find all the main food stations: Italian, American, Sushi, Barbeque, Asian and Mexican, but rather than serving the most obvious, boring of choices only, they add something different in each station. For example, in the Italian section, besides the quintessential pasta and pizza (the latter was nothing special, as in most other buffets, by the way, except perhaps for Bellagio), the Red Rock buffet offers a delicious ‘stromboli’: delicate pizza pastry rolled almost the same way as a burrito, stuffed with spinach, mozzarella cheese and delicious deli meat; it was so delicious we kept going back.

Among the most popular dishes at this Vegas buffet are scalloped potatoes, pork roast, Japanese dumplings, grilled fish, sushi (though the sushi here is not as good as Bellagio, MGM Grand and of course Bacchanal) and some of the Mexican dishes.

Although you will not be disappointed no matter what time of the day you will visit, this Vegas buffet is particularly popular for its Sunday brunch, where you will enjoy a large variety of breakfast and lunch choices, such as eggs, bacon, sausages, pancakes, macaroni and cheese, tacos, shrimps, a good cold cut meat station where you can have freshly-prepared sandwiches made to order and, of course, a wide salad and fruit section.

We found that if you go last minute you may be disappointed by 2 things: 1) the quality of the preparation of the dishes erodes as the buffet nears its closing time; 2) they take away dishes a bit prematurely. So, our advice is not to leave it to the very last minute and give yourself at least 2 hours before closing time. This buffet unfortunately has a gap between lunch and dinner (many budget Vegas buffets do and some of the not-so-budget ones), so dishes are taken away and not replaced by dinner ones.

The desert section is also popular partly because it offers a wide selection (definitely above average) but also because some the good quality of it, in particular its home-made gelato.

The ‘Cons’: long line ups and very slow at moving people. Badly managed line ups with VIP lines and others, whilst the ‘regular’ line never seems to move.

In short: nothing fancy or gourmet, but good food, a good variety of choices and, above all, at great prices. To save even more, the ‘secret’ here is to obtain the ‘boarding pass card’ (basically the casino players’ card before you go to the buffet and then present it at the cashier).

Red Rock Buffet Hours & Prices:

from 8am to 9pm without our very beloved ‘roll-over’ (by roll-over we mean when lunch goes into dinner without any break, for example). But then, the prices are low so it is to be expected. We have videos of the Red Rock Feast buffet (see link below).

Hello everyone!

As promised, here’s my review on my visit to the Red Rock Canyon in Nevada! I have been to Vegas many times and I never knew about this Canyon until my recent stay at the Red Rock Resort. Not only is it a few minutes drive from the resort, it’s also very easy to get to since it shares the same main road as the resort. You know you’re going the right way when you see this!

Check out the beauty of the spectacular desert landscape and sandstone peaks! Pictures speak louder than words.

Located 20 miles west of Las Vegas

I really adored seeing the magnificent natural beauty of the Red Rocks.

I pulled over to Calico Hills I and II (the first two trails) which is an excellent overlook if you’re short on time because you can climb on the formations and be practically “on” the “Red Rocks.”

QUICK FACT: This area used to be part of the deep ocean basin and the earth’s movements caused this sea-bed to rise slowly. When it got exposed to the atmosphere, it oxidized resulting to these red-orange beauties.

When entering the national park, you’ll be immediately greeted by the visitor center. It is a brand new nature observation area that features extremely well put-together collection of artifacts, photographs, scenes of the ancient inhabitants of the area, and a desert tortoise habitat (a good place to stop by if you do not want to take the scenic drive around the canyon). I am an adventurous girl so I obviously wanted to experience it all. :)

Visitor Center is open every day from 8:00 am to 4:30 pm

I started the driving tour by entering their Scenic Loop Drive (fee is $7 per car to enter the park but really worth it). The 13-mile scenic stretch is a one-way road around the canyon which allowed me to enjoy the breathtaking mountains from different angles. As hot as it was… I was surprised to see a lot of bikers riding there.

While I didn’t get to see any wildlife, there are plenty of tortoises, mountain sheep and wild burros in the desert. Apparently, there are waterfalls out there too! How amazing is that? Watch out for Mojave Max (a local desert tortoise in the area).

Why hello, Mojave Max!

Knowing that I will be surrounded by some unique geological features, plants and animal life, I want to complement with the environment by wearing my cow print one-shoulder romper. It is made of breezy material which makes it perfect for a warm-weather outing like this. I knew that wearing some comfy shoes is a must but I didn’t want to sacrifice any style, therefore, I opted to wear a comfortable pair of wedge shoes made of canvas cloth instead of leather.

There were several parking lots for vista points along the canyon road which allowed access to wonderful views. Here in Red Rock, I was in awe with the gorgeous large red rock formations. It totally reminded me of a trip I did a couple of years back in Sedona, AZ.

The striking, natural colors of the scenery in vivid red, amber, green and yellow were the fantastic backdrop to my bag that day: A light gold yet classic Kate Spade Tote Bag. It carried my camera, a bottle of ice-cold water and sunglasses, great things to bring on a trip out here.

As the number 1 attraction while staying at the Red Rock Resort is visiting Red Rock Canyon, it’s totally one of the best things I did this weekend! I highly recommended it!

Take a break from losing your bankroll at the casinos and take a drive to one of the best kept secrets of Las Vegas!
