The chicken and meat loaf were undercooked, the fries were cold and, there were not many options.

If you're looking for a gut reset coupled with a superior colon cleanse...this is your spot. #1- Overpriced cafeteria food. #2 - Ooohhh man...trust me ...you'll have one within the hour. #3 - Filth on floors as most of the patrons and the overworked/under appreciated plate clearing staff let food lay where it falls. #4 - Management needs to be fired by Corporate to do a hard reset because other nationwide GC buffets are just what they appear in the commercials. This place is a "like it or leave it" as there is no other real choices in Green Bay. #5 - Hard pass....I'd say a truck stop Chinese food buffet in the New Mexico desert would be a better dining experience. (Flushing noise....see less than an hour). PS..Tip the wait staff and a thank you once in a while to them.... The lack of eye contact during the whole "wave of the hand and take my plate away you peasant" experience the staff goes through is bad enough...in my time here...little or nothing at all was left on the table at the end of the 3 times minimum plate clearing meal. Food savagery. read more

Food was disappointing meat bland, fish horrible the pans were almost empty the rest old and crusty total waste of 90.00+ dollars. I wish there was a negative star it was not even worth one star. The service was so bad, we had to actually clear our own plates. In the plate bin, there was food stuck on the bottom of the plate in the bin. The management was very rude and unhelpful. And the floor was filthy where other people who had been there left food on the floor dropped food on the floor and it was left. They also had tables that were not cleaned. And flies flying all over the place. In the end, we lost the ninety plus dollars and went somewhere else. read more

Sure, here's a 5-paragraph breakdown with bullet points explaining your disappointing 1-star experience at Golden Corral: 1. Overcooked Spaghetti That Was Basically Glue The spaghetti was so overcooked it was falling apart before it hit the plate. Instead of a nice al dente bite, it had the texture of soggy paper towels. No sauce could save it--it just sat there in a sad, clumpy mess. Honestly, it tasted like someone boiled it during breakfast and forgot about it until dinner. 2. Chicken So Bland It Offended Me The chicken looked promising but had zero flavor. Not even a pinch of salt or pepper--just warm, chewy sadness. It felt like they cooked it straight from frozen and called it a day. Even dipping it in every sauce available couldn't bring it back to life. 3. Tacos That Should Be Charged With False Advertising "Taco bar" made it sound fun, but the tacos were straight-up disappointing. Shells were stale and cracked before you even picked them up. The meat was dry, greasy, and weirdly lukewarm. It felt like they gave up halfway through making them--if this was Taco Tuesday, I want a refund on the week. 4. Buffet Quality Was Way Below Expectations Golden Corral is supposed to be about variety and comfort food, but everything looked like it had been sitting out for hours. Most trays were nearly empty, and the ones that were full didn't look fresh. Staff barely checked the stations, so you had to dig through crusty leftovers to find anything remotely edible. For the price, the quality was embarrassing. 5. Overall Vibe: Depressing and Unappetizing The whole experience felt like a sad middle school cafeteria. Lukewarm food, dim lighting, and a general lack of care made for an unpleasant meal. No standout dishes, no decent seasoning, and no reason to come back. I left more annoyed than full--and that's saying a lot at a buffet. Let me know if you want to post this as a review somewhere--I can help tighten it up or make it more formal if needed. read more

Great variety of foods for the whole family. Salad bar pleases dad; everything else pleased mom and the girls

We went they they charged us $53.00 and we actually left without eating. The flooring was so full of food that people dropped and I called and the manager actually hung the phone up on me his name was Chet. The restroom was so filthy and only 1 soap dispenser worked the one sink was spraying water everywhere etc. We just left and went to a different restaurant to eat. We were absolutely appalled at how filthy it was and the reason we left was because they brought out a bin of clean plates and the employee dropped them on the floor and he put them back in the plate bin and allowed the people to eat off them after he dropped them on the floor. Again I understand that it is an all you can eat basically a fast food place but to see how filthy it was and all the food bins were actually pretty empty also And all filthy. We were absolutely appalled we will never be back again. And the manager after I called and told him about everything just hung the phone up. Just down hill. read more

Food temp could be warmer, however it was ok quality for the price. Please bring back the blue plastic gloves!

1 thing bad about this place, well maybe more. To start, the food was fine. The food I got (pizza and vegetables) was fine. Not bad, not good. I also had gotten desert from this place which was fine as well. I had gotten water and it tasted as if it was straight off the tap, which I didn't like. Which is a 6/10. Next, the service was good with the staff being polite. Also, the waiters were going super fast which was kinda good lol. 7/10. Finally, the ambiance which I don't remember too much. If I didn't remember it that much then it's probably mid. 7/10. Overall, this place is ok to go to. Though, when I went, there was police and ambulances! read more

Had a good breakfast on a Sunday. The service was good. You get your own good but clean up was on par. The place hasn't changed much. The breakfast was one of the better meals that I have had here though. read more

Basic buffet food. Some was warmer than others. Not a super variety. Hot food was a rarity; you could take it off the buffet and see a lack of steam on most items, except for the water under the chafing dishes. Would recommend only if you're desperate. But then again, it IS a chain buffet. read more

Food is terrible! Paid almost 90 for 4 people. They don't clean the floors and there's hair in the food. One table away from us found bugs. Staff and management was no help. We're a family of Latinos and the white manager was discriminating us and didn't want to help. Never coming back. The white white manager smelled like A S S and was very rude read more

Went here with mom and dad. We were gonna go some place else. Hit this joint on 6/6/22- food was fresh(salad) and hit (meats, veggies etc... look they got it all. Staff is professional. Kind. Good is good and it was full at noon. I ran into a family member here u expected. This place is open for business! Which is more than I can say about 'other' places off Mason and military like Arby's, Culver's and Taco Bell. They can't get ppl to work. For the same price, u get REAL food and perfect service. Watermelon was to die for. read more

Every time I go here I always go to the bathroom after I'm done eating. Overall people there are really nice and helpful. Usually when I go its packed. Place is kinda messy but I can understand it. Food is good. read more

Being from Florida where Golden Corral's are popular with the tourists, I decided to try one in Green Bay. I must say, not all Golden Corral's are created equal. I Florida they seem to be associated with pig farming, and slopping the pigs. They are crowded, uncontrolled with poorly prepared foods fed to uncontrolled crowds and kids in a dirty restaurant. This Golden Corral was clean, well staffed, and the food tasted good. Everyone was controlled and the were no children serving themselves. What a difference. I had to check to make sure it was a Golden Corral. I enjoyed the experience and will be visiting again. I score them 4 of 5 stars. What a surprise. read more

First thing first. I hate Golden Corral. I hate it. I only come because my spouse loves it and hey sometimes you have to be that loving spouse. I don't go quietly. So. With that out of the way. This is one of the cleaner stores. I think GC is expensive for the quality of food. $13 for the weekend buffet?? I always advise to go early. Why? Because the workers hate keeping the food items replenished. I'm giving this store 3 stars due to the nice service and cleanliness. Other than that GC won't crack a 2'star rating. The food is awful. Nothing is worth remembering. The desserts taste so awful too. How does GC continue to expand. I've eaten at way too many of them and I've never been impressed. read more

Very disappointing, overpriced for cold and gross food. Not a very good experience overall, not very good service and there was hair in the ice cream. read more

Came here for lunch today and learned quite a bit. First, if the meatloaf has the word "awesome" in the title...it isn't. It is actually possible for a green pepper to have 0 flavor. It is also possible for every employee to be scowling at the same time, without once cracking a smile. Their idea of a chocolate "fountain" is an empty bowl where the fountain should be. Also, no matter how you want your steak, it will always be medium rare...always. I even had a soft shell taco, where the shell was like cardboard. And for all this nastiness you will be charged FIFTEEN DOLLARS! For LUNCH!! Please...I beg you all...if you want a decent buffet in GB, go to Pizza Ranch where the food tastes like...food. read more

Wondering why 5 stars? This is the only place in GB where you can go full-on with any diet preference! Keto, paleo, vegan, low fat, low carb with real food vs some kind of smoothie bar. Sauteed or steamed turnip greens, spinach, & cabbage + other low carb veggies or mushrooms. Broiled, roasted or grilled chicken, fish, beef. Salad, soup potato bars. On a Sunday in Jan 2019, the place is clean, staff are well groomed and actively keeping people's drinks filled, plates cleared, tables and bars wiped and filled. For a solid nutritional boost that is NOT the typical Gordon Food Service type of frozen/reheated food, and without cooking at home, this is a good choice. read more

Come during feeding time and you'll end up trading one good experience for a bad one. This place was sprinkled with such rude patrons during the evening I came with my family that anything positive from the experience seems overshadowed. I brought my family here for a birthday celebration. I took 2 selfies with my elderly parents but it wasn't till days later did I notice a grown woman in the background photo bombing all 2 photos, proudly flipping the "bird" in the 1st and sticking out her tongue in the 2nd. Totally original. It's nothing photoshop can't get rid of but too bad the same can't be said with obnoxious people. I would've expect it from her kids sitting right beside her but...seriously, Mom? The lack of maturity in some adults should no longer baffle me but it's still quite amazing to observe the "exemplary" behavior they demonstrate in their kids' presence. In addition to our lovely evening, there was also a man who continued to unashamedly brush his rear-end with each passing against my poor coat that was hanging on the back of my chair in which I sat, almost knocking it off every time. He seemed oblivious as he never bothered excusing himself. I had to cradle my violated coat in the security of my lap afterwards, and for my own safety, ate hunched over to avoid the unwanted contact. To continue, I overheard a man politely excuse himself because another man was blocking his way. Instead of replying courteously to the polite man, the 2nd man defensively scowled at him and walked off in a huff. I also observed a hungry, 6'5 woman, clad in camo hunting apparel, her giant hands filled with plates of food, looming and glaring over my 4' 2" daughter when my daughter "mistakenly" crossed her path to make her way towards me. The woman also looked as if she was going to devour my 8 year old in one gulp that I couldn't pull her out of harm's way fast enough. This visit was a cultural shock even though it's evident that you get the whole generous package of what you paid for. Everyone gets hungry but it isn't a justifiable excuse to throw all common courtesy, social etiquette, maturity out the door. Clearly, this place has too many patrons who lack it all from the beginning. Avoid the rush if you want a slightly more civilized experience. read more

Golden Corral Buffet & Grill - "People of Golden Corral" photobombs - Buffets Near Me - Green Bay, Wisconsin

Golden Corral may be America's best buffet. With good food in buffet style, you will also encounter a large gathering of obese people. Yay America! The food is pretty good. They have a great variety of food: Salad bar, steak section, and dessert bakery. You can select your own 5oz steak cooked to your liking. It's not the greatest cuts of meat, but it's a buffet. The dessert area has flowing fountains of chocolate and caramel for fondue which is pretty neat. It's a buffet, so you help yourself, but the service was still great. They always removed used plates and refilled drinks regularly. read more

I have been here actually multiple Christmas Eves' with my family as a tradition in the past before I had some complications in my family. Very impressed back then with service and nice people. Then, as time passed on, I did not come back to this store since the Christmas Eve two and a half years ago. So, by brother and I went here for lunch today to see if it got any better and quite honestly, our server only came once and for my chocolate milk the receptionist told me to get it filled up in the front? :( Therefore, not good service at all. Other things were that the mac and cheese was mushy, biscuits were not crunchy like they usually are. Cafeteria-style. There were also more Parmesan in the chicken than the bacon and it was not crispy either. Chicken legs were dry. All breakfast food looked like it sucked. Fruit was dry too. Lastly, we all know what fish fry's are in America's Dairyland. First of all, the fish tasted half raw and second of all, it had more seasoning on it than taste. And for the fried shrimp, it was junk junk seafood. And lastly, the shrimp came out like chicken nuggets and then left to what I ate. The meatloaf was my favorite and the dessert has gone worse. Never going back. read more

Great Buffet!! Many meat, desert, and salad items to choose from. The place was Packed on a Weekend (non-Packer game day) So the food was really hot and fresh Staff was friendly and polite Oh and you can pay extra and get a To-Go cup. ((Epic)) Can't wait to go back! read more

My second time here. First time for breakfast. Great variety plus French toast, three kinds of pancakes, and a cook that made omelets. Service was exemplary. Coffee. up never went below half and dishes always gone by the time I got back. Only one small gripe. Sausage patties were overcooked and dry. Other than that, a perfect experience. I was there at the breakfast lunch cusp and there was no problem refilling items. read more

Well it's a buffet so your always skeptical, but the selection is good but not worth the $15/per person. The carrot cake is amazing though I have to say that read more

I would back, that's for sure! Te food was great, the service was so friendly and cheaper.

I always have amazing experiences whenever I come here I've never complained about the place, food, or staff and everything is fresh and made to order, everyone is friendly. Just all around AMAZING and will always be coming back! read more

Usually the place had a good service, but today the service was terrible, the waitress was there just looking, not cleaning the tables, no offered anything. I don't understand why only when the couple in front when to manager they started attending them. We were waiting for the waitress so we can ask her for more refill's when she finish cleaning the table, but she never came back, then my husband went to talk to the manager if we can get a cup of coffee, that's wen the manager ask the other waiters if they we're attending our table. read more

My family and i had the refreshing pleasure of having an older gentleman by the name of Kelly as our waiter. Out of all the times that we have been to this location in the past, we have never had the level of service that we experienced tonight. It was nice to see someone at that location that took pride in their occupation, and did not give off the impression that they were just their for a paycheck. read more

Love the huge food selection. Mostly clean dishes and silverware. Friendly staff. Decent price admission. Love the fondue machine. :) yummy. Kid friendly and family oriented. read more

We visited the Green Bay Golden Corral yesterday. Was the worst it has ever been. The buffet was not restocked when a food was gone, there was food slopped all over the bar around the containers. The manager wasn't neatly dressed - shirt hanging out. Our waiter did his job ok!! The variety wasn't as good as it used to be either. read more

I give a 4 Star only because I feel the price is a bit excessive, I'm fine paying 13.99 for a buffet I just wasn't happy about the extra charge to enjoy a soda with my food. I was never a big fan until our most recent visit on 1/26/2018 , our host Craig was exactly that "host" we were treated like we were at the finest steakhouse in town ! So for him a 5- Star review read more

Love buffets. This one is good during the weekend because they fill food fast but during the week, the food is so-so.

It snowed the day we came to eat so there weren't too many patrons there. I think the food had been sitting idle for hours, The prime rib was bloody because it was lukewarm. Most chicken was dried out, one piece which was a breast / wing combo, the breast was totally dry and the wing was bloody. The mac and cheese was mush, the popcorn shrimp were dried out and nothing but coating. The fat free ranch dressing is the most sick tasting dressing I have ever eaten. Spinach on the salad bar was not fresh. We had to go to the hostess to get our own soda refills. Our table was full of dirty plates that never got cleaned. Save your $13 and go somewhere else to eat. On a positive note the soup and ice cream weren't bad. read more

Golden Corral in Green Bay is a family tradition for our family on our trips to Door County. Although other Golden Corrals have been hit or kiss for me this location is great. Clean restaurant courteous staff. It is a bargain. I always surprised how fresh everything is. Big selection and cotton candy real ice cream chocolate fountain. My kids and father live this place and our trips to Door County aren't complete without a stop. read more

For the price the food was not vet good. The lone bright spot was our server Juliana

This is the best buffet restaurant I have ever eaten at. I wish there was one close to my home I would eat there all the time. So many choices and the food was so good . Open for breakfast dinner and supper. A lot of seating you could have large groups. They also do catering which would be great to have available in our area. Highly recommend eating here if you get opportunity to be where there is one. read more

Great service, good food, our waitress jaimy was really nice and on top of drinks, opened with friendliness and customer service

Excellent manager Amanda! She is so friendly and helpful, also there was a great selection of food. Everything was made fresh and not sitting for too long! Highly recommend, especially if you want a family with different tastes! read more

We just started going to GC in Green Bay this year. Been there 3 times so far and are planning on going this afternoon. We both think the food there is very good except for the deviled eggs. They were dry and didn't taste that good. Everything else was delicious!! The waitresses are all very friendly and eager to please. Dining area and bathrooms are always clean or being cleaned. read more

We enjoy eating there a lot, but when the employees put new food on top of old food , it just gets disgusting. I have to sift through the corn on the cob to make sure it hasn't been cooked three times already. They should be pulling old food and replacing it with new. I thought that was just common sense. Why not throw out a little bit of old food, than add new to it and have to throw out more. Does food get thrown out there? Or just reused over and over? Either way, think of the customers health, not saving 2 dollars. Thank you. And yes, we will continue to eat there. They just need better quality of standards for what is being served read more
