First of all dont come here for breakfast! Im so disgusted after seeing cooks touching food with bare hands and then putting the food on the buffet. I can only imagine how much cross contamination goes on in this restaurant. Another thing is how do you go in at 9am and theres more lunch/dinner items on the breakfast buffet. We came strickly for breakfast and couldnt believe how limited breakfast was. There wasnt enough main breakfast features such as french toast, pancakes and biscuits that we had to constantly fight through crowds of people to see if items had been restocked. Once receiving the french toast, it was undercooked. It was soggy and the egg mixute they used to dip the toast in was still runny on what was supposedly cooked french toast. Also the woman making the omelets should be replaced or retrained properly. My husband had an omelet made at the omelet station that came out completely burnt. By all means, Im no food or restaurant critic, nor am I exaggerating about our experience or what I saw. Use caution when eating here. We will never return back at this location. So disgusted and disappointed with the overall experience.

First off let me start off by saying that Golden Corral has always been one of my favorite places to eat at. This particular location, however, left something to be desired as far as food handling was concerned. Although the manager addressed my issues quickly I left feeling slightly disturbed about the culture of the workforce there. The person at the grill did not seem to understand that she could not handle raw chicken and use the same gloves to handle bread that she was about to serve. Likewise, one of the servers, albeit in a bid to be helpful, was serving with his bare hands. The manager proved helpful and understanding and addressed both issues quickly, however I could not help but think that this was definitely not a one time occurrence. Id also like to point out that this was the first Golden Corral location that Ive ever been to that Ive noticed something like this.

Absolutely the worst food Ive ever seen in my life. We went in and paid for 2 adults and 5 kids. I didnt end up eating because there is shellfish on the buffet and Im highly allergic. My kids ate the less than appetizing food on the buffet. My oldest went to get strawberries at the choc fountain by herself. She came back and ate them. I went myself to get some for my youngest and immediately noticed half of them were covered in blue fuzz. I told the girl next to me to not eat them since she had already had some on her plate covered in chocolate. I did get a refund for my one adult buffet. The manager was empathetic to my situation. However, the moment I mentioned the mouldy berries he wasnt so friendly. Our server was nice. I honestly would have rather gone to McDonalds for their breakfast. What a waste of 30.00. Do not waste your money!!!

Relictantly I stopped because I had a coupon and didnt want to drive far from my hotel, But Jesus Christ how is this place still open? It SMELLS like a mens urinal inside, no exaggeration wet piss, and a foul body odor stench. I dont understand how hicks love these places so much, and I really dont comprehend how you would pay 18 dollars full price either. The "steak" was most likley leg of donkey, Every side dish had a aged film coating and it was prime cow round up time too (7pm) Old ladys coughing and slobbering all over the food, obease little country children sticking their fingers in the offerings... just gross. They would be better off not serving food and just pandering for veterans in a big open building.

I worked there and wanna share with you the reality of meals which people eat. The dish which people you use is never wash normal, they just put the hot water, nothing else. The ingredients of food mostly stay near to garbage. Some waiters never wash their hands, even they put their fingers when you asked to them the refills. In there work to managers one is Bernard who can not even the handle his job, of course he can not he came from jungle or Assholeland another is Gayddie oopps sorry Eddie who cares, by the way he is a racist and likes suck a chupa chups put to his ***. Sorry for that, but these persons can not be really managers. Its like monkeys start to be a president

$50 for a family of four and one of them was a 3 yo so free. Ive never ate at a Golden Corral that was this expensive. They definitely charge more because of it being in a tourism area. The first plate I picked up had food on it. Gross. I picked up two dirty plates from different stacks so that tells me their dishwasher is slacking and already raises red flags to me about their cleanliness. The waiter was polite. The food was nothing to write home about. Standard expectations for a buffet minus the fact that this one had a hefty price.

I thought the food was good until after I was done eating I witnessed something in the restroom that made my stomach not quite sit right. I walked in and saw a cook from the back urinating all over the toilet in the handicapped stall, and then leave without washing his hands or cleaning up his "mess." I shortly followed him out and saw him walk back behind the buffet abs serve chicken. He put gloves on, but after he grabbed them with his unwashed hands. I will not be going back.

Very disappointed in this Golden Corral. Vegetables were cold; the "prime rib" was way over done. Only good part of the restaurant was the dessert bar. Biggest shocker was the price. Golden Corral is advertising their Prime Weekend on TV at $13.99. When we got to the cashier & asked for Senior Discount we were charged $14.99 with absolutely no explanation for the discrepancy. Will not be back there & will find a different buffet to eat at from now on.

First thing that was horrible was the pungent smell of urine that hits you right when you walk in. The food looked like it was siting there for a while. I tried a bit of everything. From Mexican, Asian , American and salads. All of there food was either too bland or too over cooked or too salty. Only thing that kept me rating it as a 1 star was the desert. They had pretty decent deserts from ice cream , cakes , pastries, fondue, and jello

Ive worked in here, not for GC directly, so I have a bit more of an insiders perspective. The managers are very competent and effective. The food is handled properly, and changed when it is supposed to be. I would suggest going an hour before you want to eat, as the lines can get rather long and seating packed. The crowd is usually locals or folks from the baseball association, which are very large groups. Sometimes bus loads.

This was the nastiest Golden Corral I have ever had the unfortunate luck to eat at. We went on a Saturday afternoon, just as they were setting out lunch and it was all food that was leftover from the previous night. Me and my kids tried to be careful with what we ate, but we still ended up getting food poisoning from this restaurant. Do yourself a favor and go to a different location. This one has poor management.
