Opened in 2012, Bacchanal Buffet cost nearly $18m to decorate and build. From the get-go, it was more than obvious that this Sin City dining is going to be the buffet of all buffets.

The plan was to serve freshly prepared food from around the world. Soon, it became clear that dining at Bacchanal is one of the must-do things when visiting Las Vegas.

This award-winning Las Vegas buffet originally consisted of 9 kitchens. In 2012 and 2013, the buffet was awarded by USA Today as the “Best Buffet”. Since then, the restaurant has received numerous awards.

Like most buffets in the city, Bacchanal was forced to close in 2020 because of the Covid pandemic. Fortunately, Bacchanal re-opened in May 2021 after a $2.4 million dollar remodel.

Caesars Bacchanal was re-designed for a post-COVID world in 2021.  One of the world’s leading manufacturers and designers of architectural decorative glass, Pulp Studio was in charge of this multimillion-dollar renovation.

Tetsuo Aoyagi (the original designer of the buffet) also helped out with the redesign. It was important for the management of Bacchanal that the original design concept with glass and stone textures was kept.

So, what’s new in terms of the design and renovation of Caesars Bacchanal? The remodeling of buffets has seen the venue retain the 9 open kitchens, and as before the design still takes its inspiration from nature.
