I don't think its changed all that much in the past 1-2 months.
watch out for...........
Taking your life in your hands if you eat at Ballys................anywhere within the building, several people came down with severe food poisoning, ecoli poisoning during a convention in March 2005, including myself!
Bellagio is the Best! Alladin and Wynn are also very good.

Never been to either MB or Luxor, but in terms of perusing other Vegas sites have never seen either listed among the "top" buffets. I will say of ones I've been to that I quite enjoy Paris, Aladdin, and Bellagio. Paris' setting is unique--Parisian "street scene", and less hectic and sterile than other buffet rooms. Aladdin is cheaper than Paris and Bellagio and tries to incorporate many different ethnic cuisines--their Middle Eastern station especially is unique. Bellagio, while in a boring room, offers some excellent choices. Last time I was there I had lots of crab legs and even some Kobe beef. I haven't been to Wynn or the newish Mirage buffet yet, but would be interested in trying both. Don't think you can go too wrong with any of these. Sadly, while lunch is a better option pricewise than dinner (and if you eat A LOT you could even skip dinner 
), some of the more enticing options (crab legs, for example, at least at Aladdin and Paris) aren't available at lunch.
If you are there on a Sunday, you should try a champagne brunch. I keep wanting to try Bally's champagne brunch. I agree with the previous poster that in general Bally's food offerings aren't top notch but supposedly the Sunday brunch is absolutely impeccable.

I agree with Bellagio, Aladdin, and Paris (in that order).... all worth the money to me.
Been to Rio's Seafood Buffet, which as ok. Also Cravings at the Mirage (?) was better than expected.
Wynn was a letdown. Excalibur was crap, as was Imperial Palace.
Downtown, the Golden Nugget is actually quite good.
And it goes without saying, AVOID Circus Circus... a few of my friends got food poisoning there

I went there on Jan 1st. Bad bad bad realy bad. The lobsters were small and often empty. I waited 25 minutes for a drink while the waiter confirmed the drink about four times. Meneu items were not available. I used to love this place.

Aladdin is definitely a must. Lots of variety and very fresh. Excellent dessert and we found the service to be friendly and efficient every time that we have been there.
Bellagio was a major disappointment for us. Service was terrible, the room itself was boring, and the food was bland and stale. Unless you like the exotic, there isn't much choices for a chicken meat person, like none when we were there. I heard that the sunday brunch was great though. Personally, we would not eat there again.

Was it the regular Ballys Bruch upstairs ?
Or the Sterling Brunch in the Steakhouse next to the Casino ?

If you are staying at the MGM Grand and want a change and to have a laugh, Excalibur's 'champagne' brunch on Saturday was hilarious. It's edible and not too bad, but the people watching and the awful, cheapest-possible excuse for bubbly made it a freak fest. I mean, breakfast can be ok anywhere as long as there is fresh fruit, cereal, eggs, coffee etc, and some of the dross on offer was PRICELESS
MGM's breakfast is fine but crowded and overpriced. Aladdin and Bellagio were favourites for dinner, but it depends on your taste. Have fun and try not to bust a belt or shirt buttons!

Harrahs Kills the Sterling Brunch ?
Its a shame. That is/was my favorite Vegas brunch.
I am going to point my finger at Harrah`s.
They screw anything of quality right into the ground.
Its part of the pattern in Vegas recently. The recent consolidation is
taking a toll.
