Caesars Palace to Reopen Bacchanal Buffet

In a welcome development for hungry Las Vegas tourists, the renowned Bacchanal Buffet at Caesars Palace will reopen starting May 20.

The nine-kitchen buffet cost $17 million to build in 2012 and has undergone a multimillion-dollar renovation over the past 14 months. According to the Las Vegas Review-Journal, the buffet’s new design will allow guests to serve themselves in an all-you-can-eat format.

The menu will feature more than 30 new dishes. And for the first time, Bacchanal is introducing reservations at OpenTable.com.

“Bacchanal Buffet at Caesars Palace has been a world-renowned culinary destination for many years,” said Caesars Entertainment Regional President Sean McBurney. “We are incredibly proud of all the work we have put into it over the past 14 months, from the design and construction to the research and re-engineering of the menu. We look forward to welcoming our guests back and seeing their faces light up when they experience and, most importantly, taste all the new enhancements.”

In its first year, Bacchanal—the term refers to a “hedonistic, pleasure-filled gathering” and even an “orgy”—was named the No. 1 buffet in Las Vegas by USA Today, the Review-Journal and Las Vegas Weekly.

Among the enhanced health and safety protocols include more frequent cleaning and sanitization. Caesars has also implemented a health screening program for all employees, who will be required to wear masks.
