If you are on vacation then you might splurge at a few of the $25-$35 places which better have Prime Rib , Lobster or Crab and a few other special things .

I try and eat a lot , but not so I need a wheelbarrow to get me out of there

Oh, $20-25 seems like a steal for a buffet, if that's what "good" Vegas ones average out to. I used to go to one near Koreatown in Manhattan, called Todai, which became Minado, which is now IchiUmi. Any regulars to all three of those places care to comment on how different each is? I've only eaten at the first two (and when it was in Jordan, in Hong Kong, Todai). Those seemed to be a good deal at about US$20 for lunch.
