    We were locals when Main Street Station opened--with a lot of help from the city. This was back when EVERY casino had a buffet. Still, I recall that this one was very good and a good deal for the price. Good to hear they've kept it up post-pandemic.

    Was just there this week. So good to see a buffet downtown!
    You gave a very fair review. We were there only for the breakfast portion of the buffet, but much of the other fare did look delicious.
    I have to say that a lot of the food looked slightly better than it tasted, but nothing I ate was disappointing ( with the possible exception of the rather moist scrambled eggs).
    We’ll definitely go back on our next visit and, yes, the atmosphere is very welcoming and relaxing.

    Scrambling eggs at too high a temperature results in runny eggs because the cooking time is too short to allow eggs in incorporate their internal moisture. This tends to happen when a kitchen is cooking a LOT of eggs at the same time.

    Last time I stayed in the Fremont district. I ate there and actually enjoyed the food. I would have to say the only reason why I would come back is the staff were so nice down there I was talking to one of the servers and he said he had been there for almost 30 years and his other co-worker had been there for almost 40 years. You know it's a good place when they take care of their employees

    I missed the buffets before Covid but this buffet and its sister buffet in the Fremont had a SEAFOOD night that was epic. The Hawaiians on the junket ( Vacations Hawaii ) made the buffet almost like a family luau. Luckily I still have very fond memories. Sadly, this is the last downtown buffet still standing. Hopefully it will see dinner service 7 days a week. The prime rib on weekends is worth the trip.

    Main Street Station Buffett was always a favorite of mine. Along with The Great Buffett on Boulder Highway at Sam's Town. The Great Buffett didn't reopen after COVID. Don't eat bacon, sausage, or pork. Boyd Gaming Hotel/Casinos usually have good food. Omlette Station is better than eggs laying around. Had a Frittata when I went on a cruise on a Carnival ship. Like Chocolate Moose.

    Ruby, enjoy your reviews. However, when a reviewer complains about a food needing salt and pepper why not add those seasonings then retry? Underseasoned is soooo much preferred to over seasoned as salt n pepper and others can be added.
