One of the most famous pieces of real estate in the world, the Las Vegas Strip is home to sights and sounds that will dazzle even the most cynical of observers. Still, man can’t live on poker and showgirls alone, and with that in mind, after a late night on the town, the dozens of buffets on the Strip can be a life-saver. With a wide range of styles, prices, and menu options, the following are 10 of the best buffets the area has to offer.
1. The Spice Market Buffet

Constantly buzzing with activity, The Spice Market has routinely been voted the best buffet on the Strip, and with flavors from around the globe, it is certain to have something for everyone.
2. The Buffet at the Bellagio

There are a number of specialty buffets around Las Vegas, but one of the best on the Strip features an amazing array of Japanese food. Located in the Miracle Mile Shops at Planet Hollywood, Todai offers over 40 different kinds of sushi and seafood selections ranging from salmon and halibut to green mussels and calamari. Two of the most popular dishes are the half-shell lobster and the snow crab legs.
