    What are your recommendations on things to try or avoid at Golden Corral?

    • @johnbernstein7887
      @johnbernstein7887 2 года назад +2

      Avoid the Mac and Cheese and most of the vegetables. Do hit the salad bar, the fried chicken and the yummy yeast rolls

    I worked there. Things to avoid not nutrition based: the taco meat & beans, stuffing, dirty and Mexican rice, the cheese sauces, and the golden & bbq chicken. Best hot foods: anything fried, steak, pizza, mashed potatoes, rolls, macaroni and cheese. This is based on preparation requirements and turn over.

    Golden Corral is slightly above average at best however, if you are hungry and aren’t looking for a gourmet meal it’s a pretty good deal.

    • @eddiefniii
      @eddiefniii 2 года назад

      For many folks they eat one meal a day there. 30 days times let’s say 11 bucks before 4. 330 bucks a month to eat plus a tip if you’re generous . You spend more than that at the store plus have to cook and clean up.

    I go to Golden Corral every now and then with a friend. I'm a bit surprised however that their Pot Roast is one of the worst items on their menu. In my humble opinion, it's quite tender and delicious. Just saying. I'm surprised that their Meatloaf or their Chicken and Dumplings didn't make the list as their best items.

    • @jr-zq6nf
      @jr-zq6nf 2 года назад +9

      I agree. I ate their pot roast and thought it was really pretty good. Like you I thought it was tender and not a lot of fat.

  • @pasadenacatpink

    The Golden Corral in my city used to have a chocolate fountain and I enjoyed it. Well, since the pandemic began as well as the renovations of my local Golden Corral, the chocolate fountain is completely gone and replaced with a few desserts pre-dipped in chocolate. I bet most Golden Corral locations got rid of their chocolate fountains after COVID. People would get really sick if they still have the chocolate fountains in their locations today. I still miss the chocolate fountain, but there are always other ways to enjoy melted chocolate in a safe and sanitary way. 😊

    Our family ate at the Golden Corral in Kenosha, WI pre-pandemic, and found it to be more crowded and chaotic than Old Country Buffet, the buffet restaurant chain we preferred. Nowadays, the Old Country Buffet chain seems to have disappeared, but Golden Corral apparently has survived. Perhaps it would be worth trying again sometime?

  • @lightblueseaglass
    @lightblueseaglass 2 года назад +3

    I actually like Golden Corral, they have a lot of choices. I think their best dishes are their meatloaf, pot roast, roast turkey, fried catfish, baked tilapia, and their bourbon chicken. They offer a lot of side dishes to choose from, their salad bar is incredible, and they have a lot of good dessert choices; their carrot cake is incredible!

    The last time I was at the local GC, I walked out without eating as the place was so dirty and so poorly staffed, that I considered the money I paid to get in as a down payment on my health insurance. No visit to the urgent care that day and ever since. No thank you, I will not be returning.

    And by the way if people get up and walk somewhere else make sure they're gone before you take the stuff off the tables just cause there's a banana sitting on the table don't mean they're gone if there's a biscuit on a napkin don't mean they're gone it probably went to get new more food or in the bathroom takes longer your workers are too busy talking to each other and customers and he's not saying do you need anything or asking all kinds of stuff instead of keeping the tables clean keeping everything wiped down like salt and pepper shakers

    I like most of their buffet foods. But the steaks only come in two levels of cooking: raw or burnt to a crisp. You can ask the griller for whatever you like, but in the end, if you ask for anything except rare it's going to come to you burned as hard as a rock.

I remember going to Golden Corral before they became a all you can eat buffet. The food was good then and it was good the last time I went. The location in Branson MO. does a better job for supper than lunch.

    Skip over the nutritional data. Irrelevant.
    Food taste and texture matter more. I ate lunch there last April. They reduce their menu for lunch. The only beef dishes were burgers, tacos and pot roast. Mostly tasteless. Pot roast was so...wet...and unbeefy. The fish filets were gelatinous, flavorless and inedible. Everything else is best described as "mediocre" or "edible." My biggest mistake--I should have skipped all of their fried junk and overcooked dishes and gone straight to desserts. One thing they do well is BAKE! Truth is, when I got a burger, after the first bite I removed the patty from the bun and ate the bun. Their cobbler was excellent, their puddings were delicious, their cakes, pies and pastries were luscious, expertly executed.
