Feast Buffet

Good buffet. Typical food selection. Better food than Santa Fe Station buffet. Will come back again.

The best place in town for weekend brunch. Only 11 dollars a person! Fresh omelets made to order, carving station, shrimp, awesome biscuits and gravy, and all you can drink champagne! A bit out of the way for me, but it’s worth it

I’m reviewing the food I’ve placed on my plate. It’s brunch so don’t be freaked out what you read here.
Egg Benedict was very salty and the sauce was not made with real butter either.
Tator tots were fine as were the biscuits and gravy.
The potstickers I had were also pretty salty, they were tasty but the salt content in my eggs Benedict and potstickers was overwhelming, actually I think salty we be my adjective describing most of my food today. The steamed veggies were pretty good though. I did order a custom made omelet and that was very good.
The waffles and blintzes were tasty as well.
I had a bite of almost everything but I was surprised by the overall saltiness in the food today. It’s not always this way but today was abnormal I hope.
Summing it all up, during brunch I recommend the custom omelet, blintzes with strawberries, a few strips of bacon, steamed veggies, and fruit. If you eat anything else may I suggest drinking plenty of water to flush the sodium from your body.
Peace

Well it’s Sunday and the place seems busy but not to where we have to wait to be seated, but we did. Then I asked the manager how long the wait is, and she said we are working it and walked away. Then she asked my sister it we were ok…
Not the best way to start off the meal.
The food was good, it’s wasn’t old like it had been sitting for a while… That I was appreciative of!
Out waitress was attentive and friendly!
I’ll come back for the food, but hopefully the manager is fired.

Five stars for the service, accommodation, friendly staff and food.
I contacted Bonnie from Medley Buffet at Aliante Casino. She gave me a good price and assured that me and my 17 guests will be accommodated… They did! Two thumbs up for the Medley Buffet team.
So, if you’re planning a get together and don’t want the hassle of cooking, planning, cleaning, etc… just give these guys a call and they will help you out.

First time we’ve been here since it changed hands and is no longer a station, we weren’t sure what to expect… it’s been totally awesome! $ 5.99 with players card (can’t beat that), lots of selection but watch out for the omelette guy, Jose, he’s a tricky one! You ask for easy cheese & he’ll give 1 little shred of it, ask for lots of cheese & he’ll make it look like he’s giving you 3 scoops of it! The best way to start the day is with a good laugh & he definitely did that!!! Thanks Jose the omelette was delicious! My husband & I are looking forward to our next «ditch work & sneak off to breakfast» day.

The breakfast choices were so so. But I suppose it’s what you get for $ 8.99. Just when I thought I was only going to eat one plate of decent food (home fries, chorizo eggs, spinach with eggs, and mini waffles), they started putting out lunch! Yay for us for being typically late to everything. We were able to get some lunch items but I was more excited about dessert! They had some delicious chewy cookies and a wide variety of ice cream. Super yum!

Came for steak night on Saturday. It’s only 15.99 with players card and the selection is amazing. Steaks available are NY strip, bacon wrapped filet, prime rib, rib eye, and carne asada. There are several sushi choices as well. The tamales are good and there are a ton of sides and veggies to choose from. Glad we stopped by.

Get the Aliante Players Club for discount on buffet. I’ve eaten at this buffet since the hotel opened and prices are very reasonable, especially for food variety. You can enjoy Barbeque, Asian, American Fare, Italian, salads, and a nice variety of desserts and gelato.
Staff is very friendly and helpful. Go to the company website to check for Dining Promotions. Special Nights include:
Tuesday — Hawaiian Pig Roast Night
Thursday — Live Pasta
Friday — Seafood
Saturday — Steak

Came here because my group was indecisive about what to have for dinner, so what better way to please everyone then to go to a buffet. This one is like any other local casino low key buffet. Food was good and it filled my belly, but nothing spectacular.
Pros:
–No wait at all for dinner on a Saturday night
–Good variety: BBQ, Carving station, Mexican, Asian, Italian, Gelato
–Cheap! Get an aliante card and earn yourself some discounts
Cons:
–Quality was medicore
–Some of the food had the appearance of sitting out too long

This place is now called Medley Buffet. Located inside Aliante Hotel and Casino, a locals casino, this small buffet can be found. The only reason why I’m giving this place 4 stars is because of their «Hawaiian» night every Tuesday. They have Hawaiian treats such as Kahlua pork, pineapple upside down cake, etc.
But the real highlight of Hawaiian night is their lechon… which would grab any Filipino’s undivided attention! This was the only reason I went here on gym night. We got a table, grabbed a plate and looked for a big flock of Filipinos. If you see a big group of Filipinos in one spot, it’s either they’re gossiping about somebody or there’s lechon in that spot! There’s a reason why Anthony Bourdain calls lechon «the best pork» he has ever eaten! I love pork too and I like cochinillo from Madrid and lechon from Cebu called Zubuchon. Lechon is normally served at an important event such as a wedding, graduation, baptism, family reunion (or whatever reunion) and birthdays. My excuse is it’s still my birthday.
So we found the lechon… chopped up and ready for the pickins. Ooh, there were bottles of MANG TOMAS to dip your porky treat in. A testimony of legitness. I filled my first plate of just lechon: meat and crispy skin… and a spot for Mang Tomas. I don’t eat rice because I’m a weird Asian. The meat was nice although there were some parts that were dry. Tip: for juicy pork, pick the part closest to the bone. If you want fatty, tender cuts, get the belly… the only down side to that is you could be crunching on pig nipples. But whatever. Eat the skin while it’s still hot. I know most of us like taking lots of pictures of what we’re about to eat so we have something to post on Unilocal and social media websites… you’re putting yourself at great risk of stabbing/​cutting your gums if the once crispy pork skin gets cold. Lechon doesn’t let you mess around! It’s serious business. The only fine detail they forgot was the apple inside the pig’s mouth.
They have the usual buffet desserts: pies, cakes, gelato, frozen yogurt/​soft-​served ice cream, fruits, etc. i like the frozen yogurt and spumoni gelato. I tried the pineapple upside down cake which was more muffin than it was cake. But I still liked it.
So yeah, LECHON TUESDAYS!!! Hoy! For only $ 20 you can eat as much lechon your arteries would allow you to eat before clogging up and if you/​your tito/​tita, ate/​kuya have/​has an Aliante players card, it’s only $ 15/​person! Compare the savings if you got your own lechon for $ 100 – 200 depending on the size of the pig because nobody in town will sell lechon in small portions — you get the whole pig or none at all.

My husband and I had breakfast here just this morning (⁰⁷⁄₂₁). We have eaten from this buffet several times but today was a total disappointment. Almost everything I put on my plate turned out to be horrible.
The fruit was still fresh and cold and the iced tea was great but the hot food items were terrible. The omelets were dry on the outside with mush on the inside, the french toast was crumbly (I think the bread was really old), the Eggs Benedict was… well I’m not even sure I can call it Eggs Benedict. The eggs were completely cooked through… not poached as they should have been, the muffins were hard, and the Hollandaise sauce was barely noticeable. The sausage links were rubbery. The yogurt was the surprising disappointment-​full of sugar and inedible. My husband complained that the coffee tasted burnt (or old). The biscuits and gravy with a side of bacon saved this meal for me. The service we received was OK. We were seated quickly and our server was attentive.
This place was much better before the change in ownership.

Now the Medley Buffet, We came here on a Friday for lunch for $ 9. We used 10k points for $ 10 of dine-​in credit.
— Like a Feast buffet but a different Chef. They took the chef from Red Rock.
— They have a buy 1 for 2 promo Mon-​Thurs only.
— Ribs are tough.
— I come for the Mexican food! Yum!
— Make yourself taco fries and meatball tacos with sour cream!
— No sushi for lunch
— Single price is $ 9 with players card but at a station casino, it’s $ 8.
— Fried chicken is worth getting
— Leave with an ice cream cone!
— Good value.

One of my favorite places to visit when in the Aliante area. Price is very reasonable and most importantly, the service is great. I usually go either on a Saturday or Sunday morning, I always ask for my favorite waitress, Letty. She is quick, super friendly and great to all her customers.
Food is good. Again, you have to keep in mind this is a buffet and price is extremely reasonable. In my opinion, their buffet is much better than other breakfast buffets I’ve tired in town. Always satisfied.

SHAKING MY HEAD.
So im kind of excited they got this 2 for 1 buffet promotion til the end of February. Of course you gotta have a player card to qualify for it. Since they are no longer a Station Casino, they trying to promote the heck out of their own namesake. So I take my fam and friends for a total party of 8. We get 4 player cards to take full advantage of the offer.
Its friday, which is steak night and the line for the entrance is HELLA long. So we wait. After about 30 minutes later we sit. Im going straight for the steak and beef ribs!
Like a drunk dude tryin to skate up an icy hill, it’s all fails from this point on. I get beef ribs, ribeye steak, sirloin steak, corn on the cob, and mashed potatoes.
1. The beef ribs were dry and very skimpy. I literally had to dump spicy barbeque sauce on them just to get any kind of flavor besides the smoke flavoring.
2. The ribeye steak was well done. Now, if you like steak flavored gum, this piece of rubber is for you!
3. The sirloin steak was the ribeye’s evil twin brother. Nuff said.
Based off of what I just ate, I was afraid to even look at the corn on the cob and mashed potatoes. BUT, I was pleasantly surprised. The corn was actually sweet and rather juicy. The mashed poatoes were tasty and the texture was consistant all through out. If you think about it, that’s pretty sad if the sides are what is noteworthy.
So I get up to see if there is anything else decent that can satisfy my hunger. As I go to grab a plate, another fail presents itself. I see some people just standing there looking around. Turns out, there were no more plates. Say what? Another unexcusable fail. What restaurant runs out of clean plates? Better yet, a buffet even?
So to end my evening I decided to get salad since they had the small plates available for that. YES, I SAID SALAD! With this move I am totally contradicting myself by making fun of people who go to buffets just to eat salad. THIS IS THE LAST FAIL!
So in closing, I don’t ever remember encountering so many fails at any kind of establishment. Dont get me wrong. I know I should be appreciative of the 2 for 1 promo which I was, but the fails were just too much. So for those of you that are reading this and just now got in line, DONT DO IT!

ECK !!! Not Going Back. It Was The Land Of Bland. The Only Saving Grace Was That It Was 2 Fer February. No Need To Trash Food Items Individually. I Wonder What It Was Like When Stations Owned It.

Formerly Aliante Station’s Feast Buffet:
I rate Medley Buffet okay with a capital O. Recently Station Casinos sold off Aliante Station. After the change in ownership the Feast Buffet exited the newly named Aliante, and Medley Buffet came in. In a way this is a change for the better. I was not crazy over Aliante Station’s Feast Buffet. It was on a level below the majority of Station’s Feast Buffets. The fact that I was left to fill up on corn chips on my last brunch there, would of left me with a 2-​star rating.
The reality is I am also not crazy over Medley Buffet. It is still a star up from the former Feast Buffet. Everything that I put on my plate: won ton soup, spaghetti with meatballs, chow mien noodles, fried rice, and cocktail shrimp at night was just Okay.
What is good about Medley Buffet is the price, limited wait, and service. What they did right was to check up on refills and clear the tables-​with a smile.
Medley Buffet is in a league far above Circus-​Circus Buffet and far below Rio’s Carnival Buffet. It is in a league worthy of a return visit when I am in The Aliante.

Review is for the breakfast buffet only.
Family gathering for the Feast Buffet yesterday. Awesome service. I don’t remember her name; the only thing I remember is that she’s Japanese.
The place looks great! Modern and clean. Doesn’t smell or feel old.
Breakfast wasn’t bad — could do without the items (Chinese & Italian) that looked like the previous night’s leftovers. A nice touch was the grill man who could cook you up items, made to order.
I’m sure lunch and dinner may be better but for the breakfast buffet, it’s OK.

Only $ 5 for breakfast and $ 7 for lunch but we were cheap and showed up at 10:30, ate a plate of breakfast while waiting for them to change over at 11 to lunch.
I don’t eat breakfast foods but they had salami and pepperjack cheese cubes which I snacked on while waiting for them to uncover the lunch.
It’s really close to the Nellis Air Force Base which we stay at whenever we got to vegas so we went twice. Make sure you get the boarding pass so you get the discount and $ 10 free play cash!

My rating is a 3.5. I’m rounding up because of the great service we got from the server.
We came here for lunch the day after Thanksgiving. The place itself is beautiful for a casino. The trendy orange lamps. high irregular acoustic ceiling to help disperse smoke, and earth tone carpets and unusual chair colors makes this a quirky and contemporary place. Though I love today’s music, their muzak system plays sing a long classic hits from the 60s, 70s, and 80s. They know that the 30 – 60 year olds got the cash.
The buffet is smack dab in the middle of the casino. The cost per person at lunch is $ 10, but they gave us a discount for $ 2 off if we return in December. We hope to go after Christmas, and that there won’t be as many people burping, slurping, and inhaling their food.
I guess that’s a good sign when people in several tables don’t talk and just get serious eating.
It’s clean and spacious. Some dishes, like any buffet looked dry and limp, like some of the melons, salads, and veggie dishes They had a nice station for prime rib and ham. My brother got a great looking piece of rare prime rib, just like he orders when in a steak restaurant. However, the meat was cold because the server cuts a large piece from the roast from which he cuts other pieces. I asked for the rarest slice he could give me, but that slab was medium well. Also there were only two seafood dishes, shrimp and veggies and a poached tilapia dish.
Then, I took a lot of time to look at every section — Salad Bar, American, Chinese, BBQ, Mexican, and Desserts. I was very picky but really enjoyed what I got. The sweet vinegar cabbage salad was kind of plain but fresh, the Chinese veggies had baby bok choy, Chinese peas, cabbage, and carrots that was just freshly put out. The rice pilaf was buttery with pieces of peas and carrots but no browned noodles. The collard greens with bacon wasn’t quite like Johnny Rebs, but it was decent. Their best veggie was the moist and sweet baked in skin yams.
Then I hit the desserts, and opted for the pumpkin ice cream and spumoni. I also got one of these mini tiramisu cups. Not bad. They had many kinds of pies and cakes, including some that were no sugar added. Their display case looked pretty good.
The whole time the server was quick to take out dirty plates and bring drink refills — they didn’t ask you, they just brought them. Overall, I enjoyed eating, being with family, and hearing classic hits. Some of the items didn’t look that great, but I enjoyed what I did get. It was sweet that after lunch, my relatives won money in the penny machines… enough to pay for the lunch we had twice over.
