Are you kidding me?! Can I give a negative score? I live about an hour from there. My husband and I decided we wanted to go for the breakfast this morning. Since all of the other locations are closed now in the state. We got there and I was appalled how bad it was. So much so, we likely will not come back. We have 3 little kids so I got their food. There were a total of 6 items that were empty for 20 or more minutes. The scrambled eggs had what I think was pieces mixed in. The "hot" food was only simply warm and by the time I got the food was cold. The sodas didnt taste "right" so we both drank little. Kids has icees. My oldest child ate a 1/2 of a pancake and tried to eat the sausage but couldnt take a bite because the casing was too tough. Then got Ice cream. Refused to eat it because it tasted funny . Middle child got food but only willing to eat cantaloupe and an ice cream cone.but the cantaloupe was 1 of the choices that was not refilled until as we were leaving. Total waste of food and gas. We have been fans of the brand and actually have had several big group parties after special events. (Wedding rehearsal, baptisms, first communion, etc). It has gone way too bad. But definitely was not worth the money so will not come back unless something changes and changes drastically.. I didnt talk to a manager because even if it was fixed, I would not eaten it. Bad taste left in my mouth. :(

Food particles on all the dishes, silverware, and cups to the point everything felt gritty. Told the manager who shrugged I off. But gave us disposable cups. I thought the kitchen must have gotten behind because there was literally no food on the main buffet except green beans, roasted chicken, and mac-n-cheese for 20 min when items started trickling out. When the buffet did start to get refilled, everything was very overcooked. I had what I thought was a molasses cookie with raisins; turns out it was an overdone chocolate chip cookie with burnt chocolate. Cooked carrots disintegrated when touched, ham was inedibly dry, etc. My party of four adults and two babies in high chairs shared a booth--no plates were cleared the entire time we were there. We had a huge pile of plates, not because we ate a ton, but as stated above, there was no food on the buffet, so each person had to keep going back up with a new plate as food slowly came out of the kitchen (i.e., first plate has a single slice of ham, next plate has potatoes and corn, third plate has a bun, etc.). We had gone because we wanted a sitdown place that could get babies fed with minimum wait time. That clearly did it happen. Now at least 2 of us are feeling a little sick. Definitely not worth it.

I used to love this place but the last couple times have been HORRIBLE. Grabbed some chicken was not cooked... when I brought it to their attention they denied it till I showed them the chicken then made up excuses as to it being that way from just a fluke. the chef and Im assuming the manager on duty were very rude about the whole situation however... Not the first time either. Seems they cant keep up and burn, mismark, leave food out all day and undercook a lot which I have never complained about as I know how hard it can be to keep up with demand in a busy restaurant., the chicken was the last straw however as it proved they didnt care that there were elders, children and pregnant women all eating it as they tried to blow it off till I mentioned salmonella and e coli risks.. and how I have worked in restaurants before... they then huffed about still making excuses before finally removing the chicken after they ended up cutting a couple pieces open themselves ... most likely realizing it wasnt just one piece... Definitely NOT worth 15 dollars

Honestly, not impressed. As a fat guy, theres very little a buffet has to do to make me happy, but this one let me down. I got there around 5 on a Sunday night. Didnt seem too busy, but maybe a rush just left? Well they were out of about everything. Mac and cheese? Gone. Meat loaf? Gone. Mashed potatoes? Gone. When asked if they were going to replenish, they said "soon", which ended up being 45 minutes later. What they did have ended up being cold. The fried chicken was greasy and cold, the tortillas for the taco bar were cold and the taco shells were stale. Even the thin slice of roast beef I got was cold. Tables werent bussed and it all just looked unclean. The only good thing was the coke freestyle machine and the cheesecake was good. The other desserts looked good as well. All in all, pretty disappointed. Maybe there was a rush or they were short staffed. Id give them another chance to see if this was just a one off deal.

My family used to love coming to old country nearly every time we drove up to the cities. Unfortunately the last two times Ive been here my experience has been incredibly underwhelming. Not all your food was bad, but most of what I got on my plate was cold or tasted very old and definitely looked like it had been sitting there a for a long time. Bread was hard. Counters were dirty. You were out of most of your drinks on your Cola machines. The floors everywhere were sticky and very dirty. Your cups had brown dirty rings around them and they were in the clean pile. I tried to talk to some of your staff and three of them told me they couldnt understand me because they didnt understand English. This is not the OCB I remember. Definitely wont be recommending you guys any time soon.

This is one of our Best choices of Buffets. My family and I totally love the options we get here. Its a traditional american buffet. They have 8 tables each setup with specific food options. like one with soups (1 veg soup 1 non veg soup) and Taco Bar(chips, wraps soft and hard shell variety of toppings). two with fruit and salad bar lots of dressings, variety of fruits premade and make your own salad options with nuts and topings. three Hot bar with lot of meat options like beef pork chicken vegies shrimps etc four another hot bar with traditonal choices of corn mashed potatos beans corn meal baked chiken etc 3 more dessert tables baked pies pastries and icecream and frozen desserts with tone of toppings. Everyone can get food of their choice.

This use to be such a great place to bring the family and have a nice meal. Somewhere along the line they started cutting corners. First it started with the food, my best guess is they fired the original cooks and hired minimum wage paid teenagers. Then they had this terrible idea of making drinks and food separate things to pay for. It was great when the waiters showed you to your table, know its a disorganized mess of yelling children, kids running through the store and staff not really caring (probably because their underpaid). Basically OCB has turned into a sit down McDonalds, with twice the bill and twice the screaming children.
