I love this buffet, love the variety, freshness of food. I mostly go for the salad bar. Service is good, friendly staff. The only reason I didnt give a 5 star is because the man cooking the meat is so rude. Hes hispanic, haven't catch his name. Always go on Saturdays after 5 p.m and it's the same person cooking the meat. read more

I do not live in this Bellflower area I live in San Diego and Scottsdale arizona. But I attended a business meeting in Chino hills and I was driving to my friend's house in Long Beach to stay with her for a apartment Owners association convention at the Long Beach convention center tomorrow. So driving from Chino hills to Long Beach I was looking for a place to eat and I was planning on eating at the Bellflower Norms. I was looking for the Bellflower Norms restaurant when I saw the Golden Corral sign on the 91 freeway. I decided to go to Golden Corral because GC has all the menu items that Norms has for s Senior Early Bird, which ends at 4:00 and I got there about 3:20 and at 4:00 Golden Corral brings the dinner menu out, like the steaks. So I ended up eating at Golden Corral. My server, Marco. has been working for Golden Corral for 8 years. He says he's 35 and this is only his second job in his whole life. I said wow you don't look for other jobs? Golden Corral must treat you very well for you to stay here so long. He says he's not the kind to look elsewhere that he does his best at each job and that's what matters. He's working hard now as I speak this review. They got a good employee in him. The price for senior early bird was expensive $17.99. The last senior early bird I ate was $12.99 and that was only last year but it was in Arizona. The food is the same as the other locations. I thought the Sirloin was kind of tough in that every piece I cut off and chewed I had to spit out the gristle No piece today was tender enough to swallow The clam chowder is always good it's very thick. Some of the bins look kind of dried up like the white fish the edges are all dried up but that's what you get at a buffet. My drink, which is included in the senior early bird, tasted delicious because I mixed horchata with root beer half and half it was like a root beer float. All in all I would rate this Golden Corral 3.5 stars. read more

Mothers Day dilemma!!! Now I know better. Especially on Mother's Day. But I really wanted to try this place because I've never ever been. Now my son and I got there at about 10 o'clock. I approached Alexa, the cashier who did not speak or understand clear English. That immediately pissed me off. I began to tell her, I've never been there before And she looked at me with a confused look!!‍‍ she didn't understand me. Because I've been in Customer Service myself for the last 20 years. I tried to be grateful, but she was dismissive, because she did not understand my questions. Quick to take my money but not give me instructions on what to do next. She should never be in the front of a business if she is not fluent!!! Now, on the other hand, as I turned to my left Mrs.Tresha, was an angel and disguised. She immediately calmed to me down because as a single Mother on Mother's Day paying $60 for me and my 17 year-old son to eat at a place where food with not really good at all. Eggs cooked too dam hard Bacon burnt Sausage undercooked Taco shells, stale Pancakes thin & hard Orange juice HORRIBLE French toast was good though Potatoes was OK ( loved the onions, mushrooms, and bell peppers on the side) Fried okra was OK Pizza was like frozen box (the cheap kind) It just was really mid!! (mediocre) Anyway, she made me feel better with her patience. And the way she was accommodating. Then my waitress, Jazmin was great very kind. Very accommodating as well, and I think there was a woman Hispanic with a Bob. She had a white pinstripes suit on who was very kind very pleasant as I walked past her as she looked my way. Very professional, seating people. She was on point as well. [[HIGHLIGHT]]But honestly, I cannot say that I would wanna return. It looked a little warn down in there. The place should definitely get a face lift sometime soon. New seating cleaner carpets. The bathroom was cleaned though, which I did appreciate.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] It was really a mixed bag, but yeah, super shots out to Jazmin my waitress & Mrs.Tresha. Please remove Alexa from the front register. She needs more intense Customer Service training & a deeper understanding in English. Thank you. read more

Golden Corral Buffet & Grill - My receipt for this over priced me and Experience, which was definitely not worth it!!! - Buffets Near Me - Bellflower, California

Horrible service and food. Went for the first time last week, and it will be my last. Wasn't greeted upon entering or even reaching the counter to pay. The hispanic young lady behind the register had no customer service skills. No greeting, not even telling me this is the total. I don't know how this person even has a job. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Upon walking in, the food and sections looked great! Open seating.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The plates were scratched, stained, and the table wasn't clean either.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I grabbed a little bit of everything, 3x from each section. Everything looked good, but tasted bland, and old. All the desserts were old, hard and not good. All of the meat, was dry, hard and old. The pastas were not good. Tasteless. The bread rolls, cinnamon rolls, were old, hard and tasteless. The only good things that were edible was the Icee, and beef stew. That's all. Walked out with a stomach ache too. Aside from horrible customer service, the food was horrible. I don't see the hype behind this place. I will never be back here again. Please take your money elsewhere people. read more

I have never been a fan of Golden Corral but the elders in my family seem to like it. This was my first time at this particular location in Bellflower. Whenever I go to one, it's in the City of Industry. I noticed right away the food they serve here is different. I'm used to having a Chinese food station, but they didn't have that here. And normally that's the only hot food I like at Golden Corral. So that was a bummer. Even the clam chowder soup I normally like tasted different like it was watered down. For desserts they didn't even have ice cream and the icee machine they had wasn't working :-/ The only thing I really liked here was the salad and crab salad. The hush puppies and peach cobbler were ok too. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place was packed and we had a table of 10 so they sat us in the banquet room.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Our waitress , Maribel I believe, was really nice and kept coming to give us refills and utensils. She even took our family picture for us. Although she's great I do not recommend this place and don't plan on coming back. read more

It was my first time and I liked it. Can't say there was anything that I disliked. Everything that I tried was good. So kudos to this place for good food and good service. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I went around 9am and surprisingly it wasn't packed or anything. Major plus in my book.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I really liked the cinnamon rolls. I ate like 4-5 of them hehe. read more

Went to GCB&G on a Saturday for the breakfast buffet. A little over $24 (got coffee) including tax. The winners were the fried chicken (crispy and well seasoned), chicken fried steak and gravy (crunchy batter and nice creamy gravy), salad bar (very fresh greens and plenty of topping options) and the coffee (good mild blend). For breakfast potatoes, I liked the country styled the best. I preferred the bacon over the sausage. For eggs, definitely go to the omelette station versus the ones in the pan. The service was outstanding. They always were there to ask if I needed a refill on my coffee and also to see how I was doing. read more

Golden Corral is a great spot if you're looking to eat a lot without spending too much. My go-to plate was the pot roast, corn, greens, mashed potatoes with dark gravy, and some rolls. I threw in a bit of baked beans for a small touch of sweetness. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I liked that it wasn't super packed, everything was clean, and the service stood out.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] My waiter even brought me a mango lemonade before I was done with the one I had, that kind of attention really stuck with me. I'd definitely come back again, and next time, I'm bringing a friend. read more

Told the waiter I was going to step out to get my daughter her stroller, I stepped out and I forgot my key and when I come in, some old white lady (owner) of the location. Stops me with a HEY HEY HEY and ask where I'm going. I informed her of the situation and she proceeded to scolds me in front of a lot people that were waiting in line. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Completely lost my appetite. I waited for my family to finish eating and we left.. the place is wonderful place, but that was an extremely rude, very uncomfortable experience, to be talked like that way in front of people.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] She embarrassed me, i didn't even know what to say. All I could responded was "okay". read more

We had dined at the Downey location in the past but wanted to try this one. A Sunday night at 5:30 pm - we expected it to be busy, and it was, but not a long line waiting to enter. We got our drinks and paid, and were seated almost immediately. As we were seated though and headed over to check out the food stations we realized we had come at the tail end of a rush. We noticed items like the roast beef carving station empty and not quickly restocked, and the line for cook to order steak was very long and slow moving. They are always the most popular. We finally got those items as well as all the other vegetable, fried and baked fish, chicken, salads and meat offerings. The hot food stations seemed a bit understaffed. The staff always works very hard and is friendly and helpful though. Not an easy job! [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant was fairly clean and not as old looking as the other location.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Our busser/server kept our drinks refilled and empty plates removed. [[HIGHLIGHT]]A nice touch was their huge tree in the center of the restaurant, decorated for Halloween. One of the staff told me their manager did all the decorating, for every holiday. Fun![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] In general, the steaks were quite fatty and gristly, and roast beef not seasoned, but otherwise the food was cooked and served adequately for buffet. The fried shrimp, baked fish, baked potatoes and were very good. There really is something for everyone. Their dessert bar is usually addictive, with pies, cakes, cheesecake, cookies, pudding and their yummy bread pudding. There is an ice cream station as well. This visit they also had a peach cobbler, but the crust and filling was not that good. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restroom was fairly clean, but in general we had a better experience at the other location, and may or may not return to this one.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

I came with a gift card $25 Had to get a drink so i paid an additional $6+some change for a total of $31 [[HIGHLIGHT]]The drink station is right at the front where you pay so its hectic if its busy which it was not a good spot to put a drink station just inconvenient[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I mean its a buffet. A majority of the food is basic, some things that stood out was the steak they "cook to order" which was super greasy but basic, their wings arent too bad, dessert is not good at all little brownie bites are way too sweet and the cakes are dry. They have some good choices but i was done affer some meat and veggies.. what i had: Plate1- buffalo and bbq wings Meatloaf zucchini Crab cakes Cabbage Collard greens Plate 2- steak med rare More wings Mac n cheese Hush puppies Fish fillet Plate 3 (dessert)- Brownie bites Chocolate cake (small slice) Carrot cake (small slice) Banana pudding Soft serve Servers that come around to grab your plates were real nice and attentive thats why i give 3 stars. Food is not good. I wouldnt come back read more

Kids running and screaming! It's like a Chuck E. Cheese but without the games. The price is pretty steep around $28 per adult and nearly $20 for kids on weekends. Despite that, the place is always packed with families, and kids are running around everywhere, often unsupervised. The food is mostly bland, though there are a few decent options. I enjoyed the steak, meatloaf, and pizza. The dessert selection is big, and I really liked the Cinnabon rolls they're super sweet, but that's about as good as it gets. The rest of the food is either tasteless or just not good. The cleanliness is a major issue. It's dirty everywhere, the bathrooms are disgusting, and the staff barely pay attention to you. Overall, it's not an ideal dining experience. The only unique thing about this place is that it focuses on American food, which is rare for buffets most tend to be Asian cuisine. Here, you won't find a single Asian dish. Personally, I'm not a fan. 2 stars is me being kind. read more

Better than expected and surprised They had everything you would expect at an old school buffet. Tons of carbs. I did want to mention that the fried chicken was very good. So was the bread pudding. Less than 20 bucks for lunch. And there's ice cream. Service was pretty much do it yourself and [[HIGHLIGHT]]the ambiance was very old lol[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]I was pleasantly surprised at how tasty the food, service and the overall atmosphere at the Bellflower location was.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] My in-laws wanted to have Christmas brunch and I honestly was not too excited about it, but I think it was an excellent choice. Everything was fresh, staff were attentive and super kind. Staff were on top of keeping everything clean and clearing out the plates and on top of our drink refills without having to call anyone over. The food was hot as well which I sometimes find to only be like warm at buffets and why not a big fan of them, but this was such a great experience that I know we be back. Excellent wide choice of selection even for your pickiest eater or vegetarian. Something for everyone and wide variety of desserts to choice from. Loved the peach cobbler with the vanilla soft serve. read more

Went here for my birthday dinner. I was told that in order to use my Free Birthday Meal coupon, I will be charged for 2 regular meals, disregarding one of them as a Senior meal. No where on my coupon did it mention any of these restrictions. When the manager was called over, her solution was to eat now, paying full prices, and coming back another time to use the birthday coupon....with their same restrictions. Ridiculous. We left & tried another location. No issues there! They honored my birthday coupon & the Senior discount for my husband. read more

My wife has wanted to check this place out for a while now but we never got around to it. Since we were heading to Lakewood to see a movie anyway, we decided to stop by. The buffet was pretty average with the usual items. The quality was okay but nothing to get excited about. I will say our server that took care of our drinks was pretty awesome. Really helpful and nice. I don't think I'll be returning though. It just wasn't worth the price. At least we gave it a try. read more

We visited Golden Corral Bellflower CA last week for dinner and everything was so fresh and the cuts of meats were excellent for dinner. I loved the Okra and seasoned greens and the delicious and juicy steak. We will definitely be back and this is our go to for a buffet style dinner. The customer service was excellent and the waitress continued to host is by refilling our drinks and removing our used plates from the table. I would definitely recommend Golden Corral Bellflower CA. read more

When you are craving something good but unsure, Golden Corral Buffet will definitely satisfy your hunger. Many choices to choose from, like Grill Steaks, Pizza, Fried Chicken, and so on. You will be impressed with their selection choices. Veronica, our server, was very kind and courteous. She did not hesitate to come by and check up on us to make sure we were good or needed anything. Thank you Veronica, great service! Let's dive right into the good stuff, but if my ways of describing things don't please you. Take a look at some of the pictures I've attached to this review. My orders are, Drink: 1. Iced Tea Add a little excitement to your day with Lipton Iced Tea Green 2. H20 aka Water Water is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula HO. Main: 1. Steak with Fried Chicken, Fried Shrimp, Fried Fish and Mashed Potato. 2. Steak over Steak with Fried Chicken Wings 3. Steak with Mashed Potato, Corn, Macaroni and Bread Roll. O.M.G., the Steak was super delicious and juicy good. I literally had about 6 Steaks total. So freaken good. Their Steak sauce was on point. I'm just watching the man flipping the Steak to get it to medium rare was mouth drooling. Besides the Steak, we have their Fried Chicken and yes, very crispy, flavorful and yummy. I was more focused on those two choices. Don't get me wrong, their spaghetti, meatloaf, and wok special was looking good too but I was more eyeballing the Steaks and Fried Chicken. I definitely recommend this location due to their outstanding customer service experience. Their parking lot is spacious and easy access. They have a restroom for your convenience. This place is unique in their own way, from design and presentation, it's pretty nice. If you're in the area, stop by and say hi. Enjoy it here or on the go. Share your experience. P.s. Don't forget to smile cause you're beautiful. SYOY! read more

Gotta love a class american buffet that serves the yummy american classics. The food quality is equal to it's price which is alright. The steaks were very good and seasoned well although my steak wasn't fully cooked and the chef looked grumpy when people asked for steaks. I always love their desert section it's always really good. read more

Well the food was just ok but the reason I gave this restaurant a low rating I saw a little boy stick his finger in his mouth and then into the bread pudding and one other thing there was this young child that came right up to my plate and coughed all over my food but other than that probably won't be coming back for the food the staff was amazing and helpful and attentive!! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]First off... I like to commend this location for being so clean and inviting.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Second...I like to commend the Employee named Kathleen. She is so personal and professional when she greets my wife and I. The Service that Kathleen gives us is top notch. My wife and I visit this location on a weekly basis. We always get a warm salutations and warm smile from Kathleen. One thing I truly admire about her service to us. Is that she remember what we like to drink and the special condiments with like to have at our table. Because of her perfect service to us. I will always recommend this locations to others.

They were closed for weeks for rodent infestation.... It was that bad. Disgusting.... They closed several in Arizona they were filmed undercover and took spoiled meat and rolled it out by the trash cans in the heat until the health inspector left then rolled it back in, cooked and served it. One of the cooks filmed it undercover. If I was starving and they gave me food for free , I wouldn't eat it. They are going to kill someone with their food.... They don't deserve any stars. read more

This place has gone downhill the last year or so. quality of food way down. g out t c a steak and the cook took it from a tray to warm up but burned the outside. waited in line due to the cashier being on the phone and wouldn't call for help as the line grew to 15 deep. The last time there the soft serve ice cream soft served machine was out of service. today a month later the machine is still out of order.

Worse dining experience ever! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Marlene, when you KNOW one side of the house has no air conditioning, don't sit customers in that area.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]On one side everyone was worn out, lethargic and quiet while on the others side everyone were jovial chatterboxes, smiling and enjoying their meals with delight![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I went back and forth with the grill cook on what "slightly medium" meant only to end up with a piece of rubber for my steak. The fish was extremely "fishy in taste. I waited 5 minutes to get sweet potatoes while a worker and customer literally had a conversation about the only three items there then waited several more minutes while the worker wiped down the bar knowing I had been standing there the whole time. (Almost as if intentional provocation to see if i would lose it.) [[HIGHLIGHT]]I did finally get moved to the other side but by that time couldn't eat because I was full from all the water I drank on the side with no air.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The offer to moved to the other side was presented more like a threat than a consolation. Will never return to this is or any other GC. This is the second bad experience I've had with them and this was just friggin ridiculous. read more

You have to learn what to eat and what to avoid at Golden Corral. First you have to know that you aren't getting organic, and admit to yourself everything have a healthy dose of the holy trinity (sugar, salt and fat). If you accept that and are inside you can actually find moderately health things to each. I can actually stuff myself there nd walk away without blowing out my blood sugar. We prefer to go after the conventional lunch rush window because we feel mose the food on the line has been turned over by the lunch rush and is more than 30m old ... a lot is as fresh a place that preps in the morning as relies heavily on frozen. Golden Corral virgins should go for the salad bar and the try different other offerings each visit. read more
