Golden Corral

Typical golden corral. Good food and good service, and don’t mind coming back. I love the added seafood options they have now. The steak is surprisingly good. They have a great chocolate fountain with strawberries, pineapple, and marshmallows to dip.

My 1^st experience at Golden Corral in Ohio was terrible but this location is so pleasant.
This place is pretty clean when I visited. I constantly saw fresh food being put out which was also a plus. The food tasted fresh. My favorites were the seafood salad, bourbon street chicken, pot roast, and fried fish. Everyone so nice here and service with a smile. The manager constantly checking to make sure guests are enjoying their food. My server keeps checking and refilled my drink. Overall this is an awesome experience for me at Golden Corral. I think I’m over eating time for me to hit the treadmill.

So, it’s a Golden Corral. For those who are unaware, Golden Corral is a chain of buffet restaurants; you pay one price and get unlimited access to everything on the huge buffet. If you are already familiar with Golden Corral, you can probably just stop reading now, because the food is pretty much like any other Golden Corral. My guess is that it’s mostly prepared elsewhere and shipped to the restaurants to be heated up and served.
The staff here are really nice. They try very hard to make your experience as good as possible. The layout is also good for traffic control – even when it’s pretty busy, it doesn’t take long to get what you want.
I did not expect to find a lot of high quality food or meatless options at a Golden Corral, and I was right. Some of the food is pretty good. My baked potato was perfectly cooked, and there were a lot of toppings for it. There were also baked sweet potatoes available for variety. The salad bar is poorly organized and doesn’t have very many vegetables. What I mean by «poorly organized» is that there is a sign that says «Start Here» over a big bowl of iceberg lettuce, but then further down the salad bar, they have romaine and spinach. Put all of the greens together at the beginning! In terms of not having a lot of vegetables – well, they don’t have a whole lot of vegetables on the salad bar. A lot of it is dressings, toppings, and prepared salads along the lines of tuna or chicken salad. A salad bar needs vegetables. Then again, I didn’t see anyone else at the salad bar with me, so maybe at Golden Corral, no vegetables are needed.
There is some fruit. Much of it looks like it came out of a can, with the exception of the strawberries down by the chocolate fountain. We can talk about that in a minute.
The hush puppies were really good. The french fries were much too salty. The corn was flavorless and gross. (How do you screw up corn?) The macaroni and cheese was pretty good. The fried rice was nasty; it was basically rice with frozen mixed veggies and a whole lot of soy sauce. Salt seems to be the name of the game here.
There is a large dessert area that’s dominated by fondue fountains – caramel, milk chocolate, and another one that wasn’t on when we were there. We all stayed well clear of those. Who knows what’s been stuck in those fountains? Spinach? Pot roast? Kids’ grimy fingers? I don’t even want to know, and the staff can’t possibly supervise them at all times. Some of the other desserts were good, especially the chocolate frosted brownie, but some were stale.
Where Golden Corral does excel is the bread. The cheddar biscuits were a big hit, and they were constantly running out of those. If you’re lucky enough to snag one, enjoy it. There are also huge, soft, sweet rolls, which are plentiful and delicious. Putting honey margarine spread on them is the popular choice, but you can also head back to the baked potato bar and pick up some plain margarine if you’re so inclined.
Unless you really just want to eat a large amount of fair-​to-​disgusting food for a low price, you can do better than Golden Corral. Please. Try one of the many restaurants on Exit 7 that isn’t Golden Corral.

Why would have to say that the food years actually not a very high-​quality, it’s actually a great value. Sometimes I’ll get food to go and just take it with me. There’s a lot you of value do this. Staff is quite friendly. I would give it five stars were not for the subpar quality of the actual food.

We have been going to this restaurant for 4 years now. It has the best fried chicken and fresh baked rolls! The variety of foods is always good and you’ll find something special that will amaze you on one of the buffet tables. The grilled meats is a favorite of my son and of course the dessert table too. To top off the food experience, you will find the staff here oozing with southern charm. Dine here, you will be glad you did!

Amazing and friendly staff. Lunch buffet is best time to go.

I feel bad for giving this place one star so I will give the Golden Corral kudos for their amazing service. The staff were all very friendly and warm with their southern hospitality.
We were driving along Interstate 81 and there was nowhere to eat. Correction! There were a few fast food joints, but the perks of travel ling with your self-​centered father is that you have no choice. I could tell from the moment that I walked in, the food would be terrible. For $ 7.35, you are entitled to all the food served in the buffet. It was all processed, yucky food. I would have much preferred to use my $ 7 and bought a vegetable sandwich at Subway.
I’m assuming the Golden Corral is like your typical chain in that it follows a paint-​by-​number approach to creating their entrees. You will probably be served the same quality of food at the Golden Corral in Alaska as you would at their location in Hawaii.
In short, come here if you have some weird obligation to donate $ 7 to this chain. Otherwise, skip it!
