Wynn Buffet Decor

The Wynn’s buffet, (officially called “The Buffet at Wynn”) is beautiful. And that’s BEFORE you see the food.

It’s high ceilings, elaborate flower displays, crown molding, soft red awnings, and open atrium with marble flooring gives it a décor and atmosphere unlike that of any other buffet in Las Vegas.

When dinning under the Wynn Buffet arched atrium ceiling, you can almost imagine you’re seated in another Steve Wynn creation: the Bellagio Conservatory.

It’s nearly always ranked up there with the Bacchanal Buffet at Caesars Palace and the Wicked Spoon Buffet at the Cosmopolitan, as one of the top three buffets in Las Vegas.

As for price? It doesn’t come cheap, but you get what you pay for, say people who use over-used sayings.

Wynn Buffet Prices & Hours 2023

Standard, non-holiday prices for the Wynn Buffet are as follows:

BreakfastMonday – Thursday: 8 AM – 9 AM$38.99
BrunchMonday – Thursday: 9 AM – 3 PM$45.99
Gourmet BrunchFriday, Saturday & Sunday: 8 AM – 3 PM$49.99
DinnerMonday – Thursday: 3 PM – 9 PM$64.99
Gourmet DinnerFriday, Saturday & Sunday: 3 PM – 9 PM$69.99

These prices do not include the 8.38% Las Vegas sales tax, nor does it include the tip. So, for example, the weekend dinner buffet would cost 2 people a combined total of $151.71 after tax and before tip.

Wynn Buffet Reservations

While they do not offer reservations, you can pre-pay and receive priority seating by clicking on the green tab on the Wynn website here: Wynn Buffet. There isn’t any extra charge for this.

The Wynn says they try to seat every person with priority seating within 30 minutes of the designated buffet time. Please note that you must cancel your reservation at least 24 hours prior, or you’ll be charged the full amount.

Based on the online seating system, it appears you can only have a maximum of six in your party.

Wynn Buffet Holiday Pricing

During holidays, prices are subject to rise. These holidays can range from normal ones (like Christmas) to artificial holidays like Super Bowl weekend.

For the 2022 Labor Day weekend, prices jumped $10 per meal, meaning brunch is $59.99 while dinner prices were $79.99.

(Youtuber Derek and Catherine review the Wynn Buffet, and their new “Live Large” upgrade option.)

Wynn Buffet Children’s Prices

Children aged 10 and up pay the same price as adults.

For children 3 to 9 years of age, the prices are exactly half of the adult prices. For example, the weekend brunch price for a child is $24.50.

Kids under 3 eat free.

Wynn Buffet All-You-Can Drink Option

A popular add-on to the Wynn Buffet is their “Endless Pour.” Now at $29.99, the package entitles you to unlimited mimosas, wine, beer and select cocktails.

On a recent visit, wine selections included a chardonnay, rose, and cabernet sauvignon. There was also three different wine spritzers. The bountiful selection of beers available included Budweiser, Bud Light, Coors Light, Corona, Heineken, Michelob Ultra, Stella Artois, Shock Top, and Wynn’s signature house beer, Singing Frog.

On the cocktail front, there was a regular margarita, a cucumber margarita, a pineapple mule, and a Bloody Mary made with Absolut Pepper Vodka.

Again, these cocktail, wine and beer varieties are subject to change on the season.

Wynn Buffet Live Large Upgrade

It’s not advertised on their website, and it may not always be available, however the Wynn has an upgrade option costing $125. For that you receive VIP entry, a glass of champagne, and a whole lobster. Should you want the lobster only, the fee is $50 (on top of the normal buffet price). Either way, this upgrade is only available Monday – Thursdays.

The Wynn Buffet Menu

The spacious, elegantly-appointed buffet’s menu has been revamped upon the re-opening, with several new dishes offered.

For those non-carnivores out there, the Wynn Buffet may be the city’s most vegan-friendly buffet, with plenty of dishes available for you. (Wynn founder Steve Wynn himself is vegan).

Below is a sampling of menu items from a typical weeknight dinner Buffet at the Wynn, with the caveat that they are all subject to the executive chef’s discretion. Las Vegas buffets are always trying to improve their menu so they are always subject to change.

Wynn Dinner Buffet Menu

Soups & Salads

Pre-made salads and mixes included the following: Fresh mixed melon, fregola & citrus salad, Greek salad, Italian Butterbean Salad, Radicchio & mixed green salad, a Pea & Pancetta Tortellini pasta salad, and Caesar salad.

The cute Charcuterie area was filled with Genoa Salami, Pepperoni, Prosciutto, Sopressata, grapes, Apple butter, Apricot jam, a roasted garlic & artichoke dip spread, an Olive Tapenade (dip), Manchego cheese, Cheddar and Parmesan cheese.

Next to this area is a selection of assorted breads and breadsticks – all of which I find to be carb-fillers unworthy of valuable stomach space, but to each his own.

Mediterranean

You will however find plenty of the traditional breakfast items, including pancakes, mini Belgian waffles, Cinnamon & Sugar French Toast, and the requisite made-to-order omelet station. Other breakfast fare includes Corn beef hash, egg whites, scrambled eggs, and crispy hash browns.

This being brunch, many of the items we’ve listed above in the dinner buffet section (Sushi, the Congee station for example), are served at Brunch. The selections of pizza include breakfast pizza.

As always, these are subject to change and the executive chef’s whims, however straight from their menu board out front, here’s a list of the more special “breakfasty” stations and menu items you’ll find during the weekend gourmet brunch:

Wynn Buffet Dress Code

Wynn Las Vegas official site describes the buffet’s dress code as “resort casual.”

While we’re not entirely sure what this means, we have seen signs near the entrance that read: “Gentlemen must wear shirts with sleeves” and that “ladies must wear opaque cover-ups.” Also, “Proper footwear required.”

Skip the Line Pass

Prior to the Covid shutdown, during very busy times, the Wynn Buffet customers could always expect an hour plus wait. To avoid this, they offered a skip-the-line that allows you expedited entry.

Prices to skip the line started at $10 per person, Monday through Friday, to $16 per person to skip the line during brunch and weekend dinners. On holidays, the skip-the-line pass jumped up to $20 per person.

With the new reservation system, it appears the upgrade is not needed and therefore appears to have been eliminated.
