I don't know the answer because I have only been too Vegas once, but I'll bet it'd help the Vegas insiders (Glow and Chick, perhaps?) if you defined what you're looking for. Like cheesy old-school Vegas, the biggest selection, the best value, or the best food regardless of price....

If you're looking for non-buffet recommendations, Bobby Flay's Mesa Grill in Caesar's Palace is pretty good.

Where are you staying? Will you have a car? What are you looking for - value or quality?

Have some patience, FFS.

Plus, breakfast or dinner?  (IMHO lunch is fairly pedestrian)

  mandalay bay-they have separate stations for a number of different ethnic foods-american, chinese, mexican-EYE talian-a fish fry-sea food.  don't eat for the whole day, then just take the next day off ;D

if you're on a diet, chuck it cuz the desert station is un-f*#kin crazy.  when you're too full for desert after most other meals...then you see their selections.  you're gonna sleep like a baby so find a good comfy depends and hit the workout room the next day to relieve your guilt

any of the upscale casinos should be very good.  bellagio, the newly re-modeled monte carlo now referred to as mgm park.  i was at the mirage's a number of years ago and i'm sure they are still a lock as well
don't...don't don't don't don't

I actually haven't been to a Strip buffet in over a decade. The experience gets old pretty quick, and they certainly aren't the bargain they used to be. But they are a quintessential Vegas experience, so newbies should always try one.

As for the meal, I recommended doing brunch, preferably one with unlimited champagne. They tend to be a much better value than dinner, and you have the rest of the day to burn off the huge meal.
Have some patience, FFS.

Not a buffet, but I had the chance recently to hit THE Steak House in Circus Circus.  The casino is a dump, but the restaurant is a gem with great steaks and cocktails.

even though everyone has the best steak house in vegas, if they blew up circus, they should leave the steak house.  it is consistently ranked as one of the best.  my other favorite is vic and anthony's in the golden nugget. 

funny story-there was this pizza joint in lake havasu city that advertised as havasu's 2nd best pizza place.  so i ask him, what's with that?  he said, everyone else claims to be #1

Wynn’s brunch buffet is incredible.

Wicked Spoon in the Cosmo is normally our go-to buffet in Vegas if we are so inclined

On a serious note, I used to go to Vegas a lot for Red Flags at Nellis AFB. My go to activity on down days from flying was to head over to Red Rock Canyon for climbing.

If you are not a climber Red Rock still has incredible hiking and biking. Do yourself a favor and ditch the smoke filled casinos for time in one of the coolest places in the west.

And if you can get away for mare than a day head up to Zion and or Bryce. A couple hour drive from Vegas but some of the most beautiful landscapes in the world.

Oh god, I still have the shakes from the time we had to stay at Circus Circus when my daughter's soccer team was playing tournament in Vegas.  Awful place. (The hotel/casino, not the steak place).

Last time we were out there, there was a lot of new construction happening at that end of the Strip.  I imagine it won't be long before Circus Circus becomes a teardown.
If you think for one second that I am comparing the USA to China you have bumped your hard.

I was in Belo Horizonte for work and our Brazilian coworkers took us to out to what they said is the best Brazilian Steakhouse - it was Fogo de Chão. Granted the meats are different in some cases (like grilled chicken hearts - they're fantastic) but I tend to believe them in what they know.

We were all shocked that it was the best but the food was great.

Surprising, but maybe not. I've been to three: Rosemont, Houston and SF. Rosemont and SF was trash, Houston was really good.

My recommendation would be The Buffet at The Bellagio. You can walk there from your hotel.

Look,  if you want the best buffet that isn’t a strip club go to Ceasars Palace and go to the Bacchanal Buffet.

Went there a few months ago. Amazing.

Be prepared for an hour and a half long wait.  Any food you could want, drinks included, and will cost about $60-70 a person

If you don’t believe me, look up the reviews

I read that same thing on yelp! lol!  My friends and I are ok with the price. I see you can add bottomless drinks for an extra cost. Bottomless mimosas with brunch sounds amazing.

Checkout the Herringbone at the Aria for their weekend brunch.  Half buffet/half unlimited order off a menu items.  The buffet is a bit smaller than they typical Vegas experience, but it is higher quality.  You'll be thankful to have a reservation here and go right in as you see the many other buffet places with people waiting in long lines to eat.  There are also a few unlimited drink options as well.

Bullsh1t. Clifford's Friday Fish Fry. All you can eat beer battered perch and cod, fries, slaw. $1.49.

PBR tappers $0.25.

We used to caravan down there for their Fish Fry.  We had an iron-clad rule: 20 piece minimum per man. With 15 guys each choking down at least 20 pieces of fish I have to think they really didn't like us as customers.

The best buffet imo is the cravings buffet at the mirage. There is nothing the buffet doesn't have and it includes king crab legs. I think its $40 a person but that includes endless beer, wine and soda. Usually have a season beer on tap along with Bud light. When I was there last time they had Goose Island IPA and I just say there for 2 hours. A goose island at the bar is $14
