Last month I wrote a blog post about how the Village Seafood Buffet was closing at Rio and was going to be folded into the Carnival World Buffet.
That transition is now complete, as Rio's new combined buffet has opened and is now called Carnival World & Seafood Buffet.
According to the Rio website the prices will be:
Lunch: $25+
Dinner: $33+
Seafood Dinner: $48+
Brunch: $32+
As much as I like the seafood option - $48 is a lot to pay for it. If I were looking to spend that much on a buffet I would probably just go all out and spring for Wynn, Bellagio or Bacchanal at Caesars Palace.
That being said I'm happy they decided to keep the seafood around in some form instead of getting rid of it altogether. If I find myself staying at Rio again I will likely be giving it a shot.
