However, gaming historian David Schwartz doesn\u2019t see them going away forever. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think when it is safe, it will comeback in some form. It\u2019s hard to say when that will be, but I think because there is such an association with Vegas and buffets, that someone is going to want to keep it alive,\u201d said Schwartz.<\/p>\n<p>Several properties moved away from buffet services, including Wynn and Circus Circus, replacing theirs with a food court. Tourist Dawn Cagle says she hopes Vegas can keep their buffets but do so safely. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cI just recently went to one where I\u2019m from in Houston, and they had it set up where they had the plexiglass and servers behind it, so you could still go in line as many times as you wanted,\u201d she shared. \u201cIt kept it hands-free. I really like that idea.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Over at South Point Casino, they have continued their Garden Buffet but have made some adjustments. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cBuffets of the past where people just walked up and grabbed utensils themselves are no longer the case here,\u201d said Michael Kennedy, director of food operations at South Point. \u201cWe now have dedicated staff who will serve you from behind our buffet line.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe get calls every day to make sure that our buffet is still open, and we are thankful that it is, as we are doing it safely,\u201d he added. <\/p>\n<p>South Point Casino will expand its hours in March for their breakfast buffet. Currently, they are open for brunch, lunch and dinner daily. <\/p>\n<p>*  <script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script>\r\n<!-- LVBC BLOG RESPONSIVE -->\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-3305383693358973\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"8378569513\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"auto\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>LAS VEGAS (KLAS) \u2014 Las Vegas is known for so many things, and while we have seen live entertainment take a backseat, another big aspect to the Vegas lifestyle has, too: buffets.
