How sad it is to go to Golden Corral in Center Point and see how it has deteriorated in the past couple of years. At one time it was a nice place, but that has changed. My wife and I went to eat dinner there on March 3, 2014. We paid for our dinners and the lady cashier was not friendly and when I thanked her for my receipt she didnt respond at all. The place is poorly managed, food was on the floor and I went to three tables to find a salt shaker with salt in it. Horrible experience. There were several ladies sitting at a table next to us and they were very vocal about how the place has gone down. We will never go back. I really miss those Mexicans who worked there. The only bright spot was our waiter. He was very good. Thin built, middle aged white man.

Absolutely terrible We arrived Sunday between 645 and 7pm When we went to get our food there was very little food to choose from. We over heard 3 workers arguing about putting out fresh food, basically saying they didnt want to put more food out. The man cooking the steaks had a total of 4 pieces of meat on the grill. Those pieces were about 4in long and he was cutting them into about 2in small pieces. The line was long with people waiting for the meat, about 14 people. This is a buffet, there should be food on a buffet!!! We requested a refund which the manager gave us, stating it will be about 2 to 3 weeks to refund it. Thats over $120.00 Ridiculous to the max!!!

The food was terrible. For example the apples for the desert fountains were completely brown. The left side of the place, by the bathrooms, smelled like mold. Apparently they only had one little waitress trying to take care of everyone. She was doing her best but she needed help. The guy running the grill area was hiding in the corner playing on his phone instead of taking care of things. When he finally got some of the little cheeseburgers out they were so burnt that it was like eating charcoal. I will not be going back. Ever.

It was pretty nasty. The bathrooms were disgusting and most of the staff was pretty rude. The lady running the salad bar, I think her name was Rihanna, was about the nicest person there. She helped me out and helped my child salad as well she had a great attitude . As for the rest of the staff none of them even said hello. I will not be coming back and the only reason I ever would return would be for a salad ONLY.

Not much food choice, majority of the tables werent cleaned had to wait to get a table cleaned off,none came over to check on drinks or take plates off table cause the staff was sitting in the back playing on phones and eating. The staff was rude.the bathrooms were beyond disgusting. Ive never been so disgusted by a restaurant

The food had been picked over, dishes empty, and quality of food poor to bad. Many selections were so salty they were inedible (I do like salt in my food), but the other people in my party could not eat anything but fresh salad and the fruit. This was not the first time at this Golden Corral but will be the last.

This place is beyond disgusting. The food is so salty .one bite and my blood pressure was through the roof and I dont even have blood pressure problems. The staff is ridiculous lets just leave it like that . They need to be inspected and taken over by new owners staff ect. Never ever ever again .

Had family visit and we all decided to come here. Food was good, not great. The place looked like it could be cleaned a little better, and does look like it needs a little updating. The staff wasnt the most friendly staff Ive dealt with before but you can tell they were at least trying.

Anything & everything you could want here... If you leave and are still hungry then something is wrong with you!! Had very friendly service, waitress was on top of things. My sweetie had 6 refills of Coca Cola and she didnt miss a lick!

Best buffet in the area, but it is a buffet, so dont expect stellar quality. Food is pretty good. only downside is if you go when its not busy some of the food is hard and isnt replaced with fresh. It stays out till somebody eats it.

I have had problems with this particular store before, but I decided to give them another chance recently and Im glad I did. They have clean up their act. The food was amazing with a huge selection, and the staff was friendly.

This place is nasty!!! The food isnt good and it isnt clean. The only descent thing about the place is the service. Plus it really really stinks in here. The only reason I gave them one star is because its mandatory.

Food was plenty refilled all the time. Staff was trying hard to be friendly though you could see thats not in them. They kept the isles clean. I was impressed and planning to go back today.

The food and choices of food are good, there price structure is not family oriented. A 12 year old who eats like a bird will cost the same as an adult.. If you have a family beware.

Its a Golden Corral. The food is plentiful, varied, inexpensive, and fairly pleasant. Service (once you get past the indifferent clerk up front) is first-rate for this type of place.

The smell as you walk through the front door is horrible. The entire place smells like an old gym bag and shoes. It down right stinks to high heaven and back
