One note: Guys must wear shirts with sleeves (the only little dress code we've ever seen at a Las Vegas buffet apparently, some diners try to enter in beachwear). Everything else is, as mentioned, workable. The Buffet at Golden Nugget Lake Charles, Lake Charles: See 539 unbiased reviews of The Buffet at Golden Nugget Lake Charles, rated 4.5 of 5 on Tripadvisor. We ate at the Golden Nugget Buffet because it was Seafood night, Thursday evening, expecting to have a very good meal. It's not fancy or large, but one way this buffet sets itself apart is with its salads: cucumber, caprese, artichoke, shrimp-pasta, and stacks of vegetables (and fruit for breakfast). If you're staying downtown or planning to be there for any length of time and you don't have an LVA membership, sorry, but you've failed an intelligence test. The Golden Nugget Hotel & Casinos buffet, (simply called The Buffet), is not as large and elaborate compared to most Strip buffets, however its also more. With an LVA 2-for-1 coupon here, however, you're in the range for a buffet for two, though the Member Rewards Book has coupons for both the MSS and Fremont buffets as well. It just needs to stay a step ahead of the two other downtown buffets, and it does just that - though Main Street Station's prices are almost 50% less. It's been around so long that its reputation is, perhaps, a little bigger than its reality it doesn't compete with the better Strip buffets, but it doesn't try to.

The Golden Nugget buffet is an old workhouse that's been doing the exact same thing for decades.
