    Bacon, Strawberries, Sausage, Egg, Orange

    Sitting here at Golden Corral in 2025 is a far different experience than in years gone by. It is one of our "go to" destinations when my dad comes to visit from out of town. He loves the buffet experience. The food is satisfying. Fresh strawberries. Crispy (not floppy) bacon. The eggs are good depending on if you can get some from the middle of the pan. All the veggies at the salad bar look fresh and tantalizing. Dad had the grits (good) and sausage gravy with biscuit (not bad). The only major downside is the location is showing its age HEAVILY. I'm not sure if this is a post-pandemic situation or not. But the carpets are worn and coming up in some areas. All of the booths have a weathered look to the wood, and many of the upholstered seats have rips and tears in them. The outside of the building have wooden decor blocks along the roofline that look to have mostly rotted off or worn away. The windows needed to be cleaned. A refresh (admittedly probably somewhat pricey) could do a long way to making the place feel more inviting. I'm unsure whether its a situation where the location doesn't do enough revenue to "justify" it; but as the old saying goes- you have to spend money to make money.

    One of the biggest things that this place can fix right off, the bat is making sure that the place is clean a lot of trash on the floor but that was due to some filthy customers that were eating here that don't know how to eat . It wasn't that busy when I arrived so the table should have been cleaned up in advance before people were arriving. I only had one waiter that actually came to me and asked me if I wanted a refill on my drink the entire time I was there. The staff sits around with customers and talks instead of work. Another thing that they could do a lot better on is actually knowing when to rotate the food. The white rice was super hard. It had probably been sitting under that heat lamp all day and not changed out once. There's areas in the carpet that are lifting up. The silverware looked super dirty. The food was OK.

    Horrible food too crowded and honestly the coke and other sodas were flat cups and silverware were dirty the food made my family sick would not recommend dont bring your family here

    Plate of vegetarian items.

    When we're in Henrietta, we usually hit up Asian restaurants. But today, I had a craving for buffet so we decided to try Golden Corral. I was able to find PLENTY of vegetarian things to eat: carrots, cauliflower, broccoli, peas, mushrooms, pinto beans, 'mexican rice', Mac and cheese, a cheesy rice dish with veggies, mashed potatoes. My favorite was the carrots. They were soft and seasoned nicely. I also loved the cauliflower but that might be because I just love cauliflower. It is so rare to be able to eat cauliflower outside (that's not indian). My partner are meat and he was surprised at how good the steak was. The salad bar had fresh lettuce, spinach, tomatoes, onions, cucumbers, green bell peppers. I liked (pumpkin?) seeds for extra protein and blue cheese. I think it could use some more variety like some garbanzo beans but I was fine with what I got. We tried the soft served ice and were pleasantly surprised. Service was good. The people were nice. Ambience is nothing to write home about. Overall, we thought it was a great bang for the buck especially if you're craving a variety of (American) food.

The place had a nice ambiance with a sculpture and indoor pond as soon as you walk in the door. They were also playing nice, soft music you can enjoy your meal to. They have a very large selection of food on their buffet, ranging from some of your traditional American Chinese choices such as fried rice, lo mein noodles, chicken and broccoli, etc. They also offer a host of your more traditional American foods such as pizza, Mac and cheese, and mashed potatoes and gravy. They also offer a nice selection of different sushi rolls. All of the food seems nice and fresh, with steam coming off most of the food. I thought the taste of the food was pretty good. Everything tasted fresh and had good flavors to it. I personally didn't have any, but my wife said the Mac and cheese was not very good, tasting like "noodles soaked in milk". The sushi had good flavors to it, and the rice seemed fresh (not hard like some sushi rolls that sit out for a while at a buffet). The staff were very attentive, grabbing our used plates at our table, and bringing us refills on the drinks. It also seemed like there was always a member of staff going around the buffet making sure all of the food was staying fresh, and refilling the food that was getting low. We overall had a great experience and definitely will be back in the future!

And it's the nicest place to eat in the casino. It's fairly expensive at $21.95 for dinner per person. You get $3 off that with your Lucky North card, and I also had an offer on my card for another $7 off. We also cashed in our points that were on our card to save a few more dollars, so we paid $30 total for the two of us, with non alcoholic drinks included. I'm vegetarian, and there's a lot of options for me. Off the top of my head, there's pizza, garlic sticks, salad, macaroni salad, soft pretzel sticks, fried mac and cheese, baked potatoes, rolls, spring rolls, and a make your own pasta station. Now, of all of that, the macaroni salad and the pretzel stick were good. The rest was just ok. There was also pimento macaroni and cheese, but I really didn't like that. And I didn't do the pasta station this time, but that is usually good. Like all buffets, it changes, so everything isn't available each time you go. On the dessert bar, there is an Oreo pie that I really like. I usually go get that first to make sure I get a piece, lol. Of the whole buffet, that is the one thing that I truly like. Everything is ok, but nothing is amazing. The pie is really good though. My husband is not vegetarian, and he is really why we come here. There's a much bigger selection for him, and I know he had prime rib. That was probably all he needed to be happy. :) I just found out that they have a brunch until 3pm on the weekends.

On my most recent visit, during lunch time with friends, we all had the all-you-can-eat buffet, which is a great value at $13.99 (current price). The woman serving us was very generous with the portions and also made sure we had plenty of injera bread to eat with it (though there is also rice on the buffet if you prefer.) Although I don't know the names of any of the things I ate, there were mild and spicy options, several kinds of lentils, a kind of pureed chickpea dish, sauteed/braised greens and two kinds of mixed veggies - one with carrots and one with cabbage. Although the buffet is all-you-can-eat, we were all stuffed and just managed to eat what we were served. A few side notes: -- Hours here on Yelp say they open at 11 am which is incorrect. They open at 12 pm each day of the week. -- There is street parking and in this section of the city, it is still free! -- Seating in the front room inside can accommodate approx 20 people. On the day we visited, we were a group of 4, and several singles came in, and two other groups of 4, and the place was packed -- There are also several meat options on the buffet; if you want the meat the buffet price increases by $1 -- Beverages are all in bottles - water, sodas, etc -- This place uses disposable paper plates and plastic cutlery -- Don't forget to ask about the samosas! They have a veggie one and a meat one, and though we forgot and were too full, they looked and smelled amazing!

There are no gloves for utensil sharing and no plastic protections to prevent snotty six year olds from sneezing all over the dining options. The clearest giveaway should have been that the place was dead empty at peak dining hours on a Friday evening in a crowded strip mall on a main road in Henrietta. It was almost creepy. The weirdly-placed chandeliers and oddly-stained carpet only added to the eerie atmosphere. The food was pretty bad. Nobody goes to a Chinese buffet for an authentic Chinese experience, and I understand that. I've never been to China but I would imagine they don't serve garlic bread, pizza, chickie nuggies, California rolls or jello cubes as part of a traditional dinner. What upset me was the poor quality of all my Americanized Asian classics. The fried rice? Terrible. Lo mein? No where to be found. Sweet n sour chicken? No thank you. Dumplings? HOW DO YOU MESS UP DUMPLINGS?!?!? There was a large vat of egg drop soup that had physically congealed and solidified. I was disgusted. At 20 dollars per head, China Buffet is a massive waste of time, money, and calories. There is absolutely no reason for me to ever set foot in this "establishment" again, and I truly hope they do Monroe a favor and shut down soon.
