The food tasted SO much better than home (South Bend, IN). The service was so awesome, everyone was so kind. And the ambiance was nice too, very home-like atmosphere. We will be coming back again very soon. Hopefully ours at home will get to this level. Thank you!! *And thank you to our server, Yamiry! read more

Got off a plane from NY and drove over an hour to return to my favorite upgraded buffet only to find out that they're closed for some kind of filming production (movie? Commercial?) The website still states that they're open but when we pulled up, no lights on and a security guard saying "keep moving". Disappointing read more

A Major Upgrade at Golden Corral Hialeah! I recently revisited the Golden Corral Buffet & Grill in Hialeah after about a three-year break, and I was genuinely impressed by the improvements. The entire establishment feels very clean, and the service is much better--attentive, friendly, and efficient. It's clear they've made a real commitment to quality and the customer experience. Plus, redeeming that $5 discount through the app made the already great value even better! The food quality was a major highlight. I must give a special shout-out to the Cuban Pork; it was incredibly juicy and tender--hands down, one of the best buffet pork dishes I've ever had. Beyond that standout, the buffet classics were excellent: the steak was very good, cooked just right for a buffet setting. The vegetables were noticeably fresh, bright, and not overcooked. The popcorn shrimp and fried chicken were perfectly crispy and delicious, and the meatloaf was satisfying comfort food. This visit was a pleasant surprise and a huge step up from previous experiences. If you haven't been in a while, I highly recommend visiting this location to experience the improvements for yourself! read more

Selection of food choices were great. A wide variety of salads and desserts were available. The lady that waited on our group was pleasant and responsive. The dining had more than enough space so we were able to move around easily. My only complaint is that it was very cold in our dining area. read more

Love it here ! Worth the drive! The cook cooking the steak GREAT JOB everything is good the sweet potato is delicious the mash potatoes too

Staff was super friendly and attentive. Best buffet food I've ever had. Both hubby and I said we loved everything we tried! Steak was so flavorful and cooked to perfection. read more

First visited the original location down South. This is a smaller version of the original but nice. Fresh, clean restaurant. Servers are attentive. Visited for lunch. Good variety of menu. Fresh and tasty. read more

The girl who was out waiter was amazing she was respectful and always checked up on us. The plates were clean but the food was questionable, after taking a bite of the fired chicken I lost my appetite and decided to have desert. First of all when I read the deserts on the website I got so happy, they had all my favorites. However, the carrot cake was dry and tasted raw the puddings and flan tasted alright and the slushie was horrible. The ice cream (chocolate) was like any normal chocolate ice cream but the toppings were hard to look at. It was messy and the toppings were basically all mixed. And lastly, the interior. When I say it smelt like salt and vinegar in there it would be an understatement, I was happy leaving the buffet because it meant fresh air. Overall, service 5 stars, food 3 stars, and the interior 2 stars. read more

2 In on a Wednesday at 6:30 for dinner. Senior Dinner Buffet $21.99 plus drink. Not busy. My friend had never been here before. She was very impressed with the menu. Everything was fresh at hot. The pot roast was very good. A nice first time "for me" was whole fried catfish. Never saw them here before. Very good. Server "Arianna T" was slow picking up the dirty dishes and I had to ask for more water. First time for that. Will be back. read more

it's amazing how not many people are unaware of the cleanliness, the quality, the portions , we are frequent clients and I notice a lot of positive attitudes from the staff, the manager , Jim, is around and is polite and treats customers and staff to be commended ,, read more

Me and my partner went to Golden Corral yesterday for lunch and I got to say I've never been to this one in Hialeah and I would never go back to this one ever again. First of all, the customer service when they are placing you at an empty table is just rude. The first person placed me at an empty table near the window and then the Spanish man who assumed I spoke Spanish when I don't just started to give me an attitude saying that it's reserved for someone else and I said how am I supposed to know that? I was furious and complained to the person who sat me down there because it's your fault for not knowing if it was reserved or not. And he's like saying "he's old, he's always like that" and I'm like I don't care, he was rude, he assumed I spoke a different language and it's not fair. So the other guy gave us a booth away from all that nonsense. If I could give this place zero stars, I would. And some customers don't know what space is. Like I'm trying to get food, and you are just all up on my bubble like it's okay. The food was okay, the atmosphere was just too loud. Like no I would never come back here for breakfast or lunch!!!!!! read more

For the price you pay, this is a really good deal. If you are 60 years or older, you can get a senior discount in the early afternoon ($9.99 between 1-3pm). You also get a free drink with your buffet. This location is clean, modern and very stylish. I am used to the old Golden Corral restaurants that look like an old Ponderosa or Sizzler (if you don't know what I am talking about, you were not eating out in the 1980s...LOL). Their selection of salads, Mexican food, soups, vegetables, meats, pizzas, desserts and other items are really good. Many times you go to a salad bar and the leaves or vegetable are not great looking....not here....all the veggies look fresh and taste great.....The staff is constantly replenishing the food as it gets eaten. Nice waitstaff cleaning up the tables. The first Golden Corral restaurant opened in Fayetteville, North Carolina, in 1973. Fifty years later, Golden Corral is America's #1 buffet and grill. Many other buffet restaurants closed shop during the pandemic, as well as some Golden Corral locations in South Florida but several are still going strong. If you are near one and get to go, hope you enjoy the good food ! read more

The service was good, but as I got up to go get food I smell this funky smell. It smelled like straight sh**t. My food, it was pretty good. Although the chicken tried to k!ll me with the amount of salt that was on it. The desert, now I'd never think that ANYONE could mess this up. The disappointment on my face. Cake dryer than the Sahara Dessert, brownie taste like a crayon, the jello was good tho. But back to the smell. The smell was worse than a landfill it smelled like three cans of bounce that a$$ and a cats breath mixed with the teenage mutant ninja turtle sewer water. Now words can't fathom my experience here so I left some pictures of how I felt. read more

First time stepping foot inside this restaurant chain and what brought me in was their appealing and mouth watering commercials before lunch time on tv. This location is fairly new. This restaurant was so packed that people were waiting to get in. However, the line moves pretty fast; and once you pay, the hostess does an incredible job in having your party seated in no time. The buffet stations are all spotless and one has to wear disposable gloves to deal with the food. The staff is constantly cleaning stations and replenishing the food. Food - Is very well assorted. From diverse cooked & grilled steaks - to southern fried chicken - to assorted charcuteries - plus all types of pastas and pizzas. For the mindful and conscious eater, there's a salad bar. The dessert stations have cookies, brownies, soft served ice creams and anything in between that'll make a kid happy. Except for the salad bar, I tried a good amount of food from all the stations. All were fresh tasting, enticing and delightful to the palate. Just delicious...!! Not a place that I would frequent often simply because I don't want to have a cardiologist on speed dial but it's definitely COMFORT FOOD at its BEST..! Truly enjoyed the glutton-like experience.. Bon Appétit..! read more

The food was as good as you can spect from a place like this. What really surprised me the most is the customer service. My table was attended by Leysi and she was amazing. I never had to ask for water or anything else as she automatically did it on her own. Little things matter and I can already tell she has a bright future. I also spoke to a manager but failed to get her name but she was very serviceable and friendly. Excellent customer service. read more

It took 5 min to get a menu They charged me 15$ for a tip on my card after I left a 20 bill They don't answer to fix situation read more

The food is amazing and it's a very fun as well as cool style of buffet. It's an AYCE(All you can eat) so you'll def get your moneys worth. Def recommend it at least once if you do happen to pass by it. read more

Warning! Viewer discretion is advised! Sooooo, I haven't eaten Golden Corral in YEARS. Let's say since I was about 16.., I'm in my early 30's now, And this made me think of the reason why I've never been back. And I won't go back.. EVER. Food gave me stomach pains and behold it's diarrhea . Every time I try and get up from the toilet, I have diarrhea. I have to clench my cheeks together to stop it from pouring out, and I may have burned a hole in my ssa.. Crazy. NOT TO MENTION, the first plate I picked up was dirty, second plate was too. YOU CAN'T PAY ME TO EAT HERE. EVER. AGAIN. read more

So the first time I came it was absolutely mid I mean it wasn't horrible but it was ok at best forgettable at worst then I go for a second time it somehow got worst and going for a while then I got for a third time and it was pretty good still nothing fantastic but then I go the fourth time and that's when they really shined. And every time I go now it just gets better and better and better and better. So yea at first I thought it was ok the it got worse then got better huh one heck of an experience for me. This is how it went: 6.7/10 3/10 7/10 8/10 read more

I was in the mood for an all you can eat buffet and decided to go to Golden corral, I enjoyed the food and the steak was actually very good and tasty, however the price was not really worth the trip I've been to other Golden corrals and I remember the prices being more reasonable, don't know if this was just because it was in Miami but the ones near my sister near bartow seem to be much more reasonably priced. don't really remember, but in my opinion while the food was good I don't think the value for price was there. read more

We have been here three times. Excellent food, staff seem happy and enthusiastic. Very good: ribs, sweet potatoes, fried chicken. If you are interested in an economical buffet I strongly recommend. Very wide selection on Sundays. read more

When we arrived for lunch, the greeter/cashier was friendly and very helpful. The seating area was very clean and well managed. The tables were clean, and the carpeting was clean. Which is hard to say as this kind of place... carpet is usually very dirty. Not here. Now, onto the food area. Huge select of meats and side dishes. As well as regional favorites like Mexican, Italian Asian. Everything was very fresh and extremely well presented. The dessert bar was ok. Had cookies and ice cream machine. Pies and cakes were minimal, but I suppose might have to have the wasting of food. The servers constantly checked on us, removed plates, and refilled our drinks. Very friendly, courteous, and professional. Overall, I highly recommend this location. read more

It was really sub average and the grill dude was rude . For $20 I expect a better food quality and service

Food is good. Service amazing ambiance great. Restaurant is so clean. I definitely recommend it.

Superb staff, clean, good buffet food and selections. First time in a Golden Corral in many years-- I was content.

WOW, very nice location. Excellent staff. We went Christmas day which was very busy. But we only waited about 20 minutes for a table. We heard it's always this busy here. Food was fresh, tasty, presented well, etc. First time this location won't be the last. Thank you so much golden corral! read more

Hello my fellow spiritual travelers, Went to this location because I was staggered in more ways than one, If you know you know. My inner tickle needed to be satisfied. Sadly I didn't get the experience I wanted, they did NOT have any food that was Non gmo, vegan, paleo friendly, ethically sourced, cafe free, and small business owned. That was #crazy like it's 2022 get with the times Viejo. I decided to have a glass of gmo water but cleaned it with the rose quarts I carry between my rolls of fat because #plus sized is in. #support a small business #non gmo #organic gal # living natural #forever inner tickle read more

YUMMY! I've been here the past few weeks for breakfast and dinner. The food was very hot and delicious. They had a great selection of food items and they restocked many items in minutes. I wish I had room to eat more and more! LOL. The staff were professional and friendly especially the waiters and waitresses. The place was very clean and well-maintained. Mind you, it does get busy later in the mornings and in the evenings because the food is amazing! BTW, they only serve breakfast on the weekends only. I can't wait to come back again! read more

Family went for Easter dinner, our first time there, line was long to get seated but they worked thru the line quickly. Drink order was taken just as we were seated, so much food to choose from, butterfly shrimp was a winner. Most of the other options were pretty good, we were pleasantly surprised. We would go back again. read more

I had not gone to a Golden Corral in a long time, the last time I went was in Orlando this one is great they keep all the options coming and full, there wasn't anything I wanted to try that I had to wait for more then 5 minutes for a refill of it, the managers and cooks are very helpful even on a Sunday when the line is sometimes out the door, the food is tasty and hot they have the buffet very well structured, the servers are good and fast and attentive even though they handle multiple tables. But the place is loud and busy specially on Sunday read more

This may be the cleanest Golden Corral I have been to. The food variety was good and cooked well. The steak was delicious. The salad bar was fresh. The staff was courteous. Anthony was our server. He was very attentive to our needs. read more

The service is very poor, you have to hut down the servers for drinks you paid for. The quality in customer service is in the garbage . Then when they do come they never bring the drinks you asks for. read more

Disaster there at 10am no more breakfast, switching to lunch so almost nothing to eat for over an hour other than salad. I didn't come to a buffet to eat salad. One guy trying to do the switchover and while he was pleasant enough he had one gear besides reverse and it was insanely slow. There is a reason that many of these golden corals are closed or shutting down it's the stupidity of management and the employees that just don't care. Such a great shame the golden corals I have been to in Virginia were really good. The south Florida ones while brand new are run very poorly. We won't be back. read more
