Las Vegas Moderate Restaurants
- Sensi (Mid-Strip) Eclectic, Phone: 877-234-6358 Google Map
- Concierge.com Recommendation: "The clientele is as hard to pin down as the cuisine - let's just say it's a good place to bring your boss or your family."
- Frommer's Very Highly Recommended: "You are probably best off here at lunchtime, sampling pizza al prosciutto or wok-fried shrimp, for more moderate prices than found at dinner."

- Frommer's Very Highly Recommended: "Gone are the heaping mounds of shrimp and other symbols of Vegas excess and bargain. In its place are plenty of live-action stations, but minimal offerings, just a scant few in the (admittedly inclusive) categories."
- Zagat Well-Rated: "On the heels of Adam Tihany's 'hip' 'makeover', the 'Mirage buffet has left the 20th century and entered the 21st'..."

- Zagat Well-Rated: "'[F]riendly service' helps you forget all about the 'strip-mall' setting and 'nondescript' decor..."
- Jean Philippe Patisserie(Center Strip) Eclectic, Phone: 702-693-1111 Google Map
- Fodor's Choice: "You can always order a fresh fruit smoothie at this Wonka-esque sweet shop at Bellagio, but why would you commit a healthy act like that?"

- Frommer's Exceptional Rating: "There are several worthy fast-food stands in the New York-New York food court, but this one deserves an individual mention."
- Monte Carlo Pub & Brewery (South Strip) Light Fare/Fast Food, Phone: 702-730-7777 Google Map
- Frommer's Exceptional Rating: "Combine the general high quality with generous portions -- a nachos appetizer could probably feed eight (though it was not the best nachos appetizer ever) -- and this may be a better deal than most buffets."
