Lake Las Vegas Restaurants

We look forward to eating at Javier’s every time we’re in Vegas! Consistently excellent. Although I don’t appreciate being charged extra for a scoop of rice and a couple spoons of sour cream. Otherwise it’s our favourite!

Service was outstanding! Friendly and attentive, not intrusive. We heard about specifics on the menu. Our appetizers were delicious…the shrimp were huge. I had the short horn steak…wonderful. Husband had the filet. He was very happy. Side dishes were amazing. I thought this place would be overhyped…it was not! We will be back as we love the old Vegas feel. More importantly, we felt the waitstaff wanted us there!

We ordered the lunch 3 course price fix. Food was excellent and while I was expecting smaller, art mark type entries, these were full sized items which offered a tremendous value versus a la carte. We also ordered the wine supplement and each was a very healthy pour. They don’t cheat you on quantity at this restaurant. Probably the best lunch I have ever had.

Great experience. The honey walnut prawns are the best we've ever had. House made salad dressings are so unique and good I wish I could have bought some to take home. The fish selections are amazing with my repeat favorite being the sablefish/black cod. The side of mushrooms are not your usual grocery store buttons and are a huge portion! We are not sushi people so it's really wonderful to go to a Japanese restaurant and still have a nice selection of premium ethnic food to choose from!

There is an ample amount of variety at this buffet, including pizza, seafood and vegan options. Unlike other buffets, the food was actually seasoned, which was nice. I was very excited for the dessert Ísland, but ended up being very disappointed. The desserts were mediocre, at best. Again, a large variety, but the taste and quality weren’t there. I suppose you can’t expect much from a buffet that caters to hundreds of people each day, that’s a huge undertaking and quality control has to be extremely difficult. That said, unless you’re a huge eater or only eat prime rib and crab legs, this buffet is very expensive. It was $92 (with taxes & fees) for one person. I definitely wasn’t able to eat my money’s worth. The servers were all very friendly and my table was comfortable and clean. I’m glad I went, as it’s been a thing I’ve wanted to do while in Vegas, but doubt I’ll return for the sheer cost alone.
