The best golden coral I've ever eaten. Clean and friendly staff. It's still a buffet but the food is good and usually turns over pretty quickly Really loved the seafood options always crisp and fried well, I spilled my water my server was amazing about it , she helped immediately and got me fresh water. (Sorry again) We come here almost Every time we visit from Montana. Great staff I felt like everyone cared enough to make guests happy, very fun vibe lots of people about. read more

We came in for dinner, and it was pretty hectic. I understand they were busy, but it felt a bit overwhelming. A good portion of the menu wasn't available, and several tables hadn't been cleared yet. Service was also slow especially when it came to refills. It took quite a while to get any attention, which made the experience a little frustrating. As for the food, I actually thought it was decent, though the rest of my family didn't feel the same. Overall, it might have just been an off night during a busy weekday. I'd be open to giving it another try, since it seems like a place with potential. read more

Food was ok, not great. Service was outstanding however. There are other places nearby I would choose first

On a whim and wanted to check it out before an appointment. Food trays were near empty, dried out, empty or cold. Taco meat arrived finally - no shells. Silverware was not clean. Not again. read more

Nothing spectacular, but it was pretty good for a Golden Corral. It's been a while since I've been to a GC, but this was better than I remembered! The last one I went to in Mesa, AZ was one of the worst dining experiences that I've ever had so I was reluctant to eat her, but there was a great variety of foods. The steak was well seasoned! I also really enjoyed the Meat Loaf, the Clam Chowder and the BBQ Baked Beans! Overall, I'd say this a 4-Star for a Golden Corral. read more

Quality of food truly lacking for the cost of the meal. First time visit, will not be returning. For the same price for 5 people we could have gone to a more quality restaurant. We now know better. read more

Not as good as they once were and need more table service. That being said well worth the price and pretty good variety. Currently the only smorgasbord in the area. Miss the days when we had multiple choices. read more

Good place for family groups. Big variety. Kids welcome but please don't let them serve themselves and get their fingers in the chocolate pudding! read more

Just shoot me now. This was the worst Golden Corral I've ever been to... and I've been to many. When nothing is refilled at 1:30 in the afternoon, you don't have a chance for a decent lunch. The desserts looked like they put them all in a blender on high speed. Bathrooms were clean though read more

The food was decent. We had a short wait time to get seated. Many options for all the different eaters (7 of us from 1y to 68). Very reasonable prices read more

We haven't been here for probably 25 years and It was better than expected! We were able to find a table and a server brought water and flatware right away. There's so much to choose from and they are constantly refilling pans. The salad bar is especially good - better than most restaurants. The food was well prepared and it's great that there are 3 separate sections; meat, salad, desserts. read more

Some good food some not so good food. They had some nice thick steaks on the grill, but the dude cut it in half without resting it and it bled out by the time we got back to our booth. Nice salad, bar and tasty shrimp and hush puppies. Desserts were kind of lame and so was the baked fish fried okra. Atmosphere was busy but not loud. read more

We have been eating here about every month, sometimes twice a month. The seniors special pricing for mid afternoon is a winner. 5 stars you say? For an ayce buffet? Yep, first off, the employees there tend to be very friendly and helpful. The place is kept clean, inc bathrooms. Seating is not real comfort oriented as I think they want you in and out so they can serve more people LOL. In our case and opinion, you really can't get a better meal for twice the price. We eat there primarily for the salad bar, the fried chicken, and the steak. The steak is surprisingly excellent. It is top sirloin that is usually tender with excellent grill flavor. But a new star has arisen. They are now grilling pork steak that rivals the beef. I had a piece for dessert! I am now adding it to my usual meal. Of course there are many other offerings that are good food. As with any buffet, the best time to go is when they are busy. I know many folks turn their nose up at an ayce buffet. Their loss is more good eats for those of us that eat there. read more

I love the senior special prices that includes a drink.Always very clean.Great service love to have Jane as our waitress.Extensive choices of food which includes a very fresh salad and fruit bar.Extensive choices of meats pasta pizza soups and vegetables. read more

We eat here a couple times a year. The staff is great, the food is plentiful and we enjoy the atmosphere.

THE WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE I've ever witnessed! My sweet mother passed away and because we had so many people over. We called Golden corral to see if we can book the room for up to 100 people. Due to the weather, we had to make slight changes in time which we as good citizens would, called not one time but three times to make sure that the changes are OK and we were told that everything would be fine and everything will be accommodated. When we got to the actual restaurant, we were greeted by a crazy looking manager, that clearly was power tripping.. She literally was short rude and had zero customer service skills. The assistant manager was the sweetest person and try to save the situation.. after literally following every requirement that this manager demanded, she then proceeded to tell us that we have to tip her $149 because it's part of our "package" again saying all of this with absolutely zero understanding of any customer service. She looked like she ran out of a jail cell straight into this position of a manager. She should definitely not be a manager, and that assistant manager should have her job! The food was OK. She clearly talked about all of our party and we all felt it when we were getting the food.. I would never leave a bad review if this was just an OK situation, but this lady honestly made already a really bad day in my life even worse by having zero humility and understanding! Golden Corral needs to hire staff that has common sense and people skills... and to charge $149 tip should be an option if you get a crap customer service and paying over a grand for all your guests. read more

Curious to see how busy it is today? Maybe a lot of people are more interested in Irish food today. read more

The food was great. Had the fish had the shrimp the sweet potatoes with the marshmallows was awesome. The place was clean very nice. Ominous was really great. Staff was wonderful. They were very helpful and letting us see ourselves next time out in Spokane we will be definitely visiting this place again. read more

No just no. Used to be decent to good as I remember it. But those days are over. The restaurant was very dirty the service wasn't the best. She literally gave me coffee with a fruit fly in it. Cheap quality food. If you're going to eat here you better eat something fried because that salad bar look like you'd catch something from it read more

Golden Corral always has a solid array of food. And the breakfast buffet on the weekends is nice because you can get a large variety.

We don't have a Golden Corral where we live, so anytime we are near one out of town we go. It is really hit or miss , as it seems some locations are awful and some or amazing. This one was really impressive ! All the food was good and tasted fresh. The price was unbeatable. Staff was quick to clear our plates. Only bummer was we asked for cotton candy and the lady in the dessert section said she was alone and didn't have time to. Also the salad section looked like it hadn't been kept up all night. read more

Dog food palace! Friday and the steak was like shoe leather. Meat entrées we bland and had sat there all day at least. Fresh fruit nope. Ice cream machine melted before you got to your table. Shrimp and french were good or else a one rating. Off my list of no goes for Spokane the stay at home city. read more

We went here for a family dinner since we had quite a few people in town. There were 10 of us and we had made a reservation for the back room because we were doing a late Christmas. We ended up waiting 20 minutes past our reservation time even though it wasn't busy AT ALL and there was no one in the back room. They never gave us a reason for the delay. I know not to expect a lot from a buffet, but it was beyond disappointing. There was so much that was out and weren't replenishing. The salad bar was almost empty and even when asked, it never got replenished. The dessert section had cookies, ice cream and a smashed pie. No spoons or clean bowls for the ice cream. I went through 5 plates before I found a clean one and then I used a Clorox wipe on it because I didn't trust it. Our server was great and friendly. I'm just really disappointed in how far downhill this place went. read more

When I first sat down I saw under my seat, a piece of leftover food on the ground and my knife was dirty and unsanitary. The service was good. When I first got my dinner the food was overall good, except the salad and sausage gravy. The salad was browning and didn't taste fresh. The gravy was cold and I had to mix it up when I went to have some gravy with my biscuits. Lastly for desert the ice cream was pretty good and the pecan pie was okay, but when I had the strawberry shortcake slushy it was to foamy and bubbly and had little to no ice in it mostly just bubbles. When for the price of 81$ for just 1 kid and 1 adult and 2 seniors and 4 drinks is outrageous coming from a dirty place, will never some back. read more

We went here for lunch last week, curious how a buffet was handling the reopening. The remodel is beautiful! Love the new fireplace and the booths. The restaurant is light & bright. But have to agree with another reviewer that I was disappointed that almost all of the hot food was the same on both sides. One of my favorite things used to be the large variety of cooked vegetables they used to have. Seems like it's about half of what they used to have. Also, desserts are somewhat disappointing. It's nice to have things already dished up (banana pudding & chocolate dipped items) but not when they're dried out (cake & brownies). Also, the chocolate pudding was absolutely awful. It will be awhile before we go back too, but hoping dinner will be a better experience with a better selection of food items. read more

We came for a birthday party, when in line they instructed us to just go back to the party room since we had other people waiting (didn't ask us to pay) and then once we were back in the party room a very rude waitress named Anna came over and started freaking out because we didn't have a receipt. Bossing us around making us go back and forth between the front and party room in the back. If I could do no stars I would. It's dirty and the salad bar is rotten. The cucumbers are brown for Christ sake. Definitely never coming back to this joke of an establishment. read more

Utter crap. I want to start out this review saying that I was really looking forward to go to the very restaurant I saw commercials. I had very high hopes. But this hope only lasted until I took a bite into my food. It was the worst food I had all year. It as if they used ingredients from my grandmother's house who happened to be a hoarder with moldy watermelons lying about. I would never recommend this restaurant to anyone under the age of 70 because I'm pretty sure that's when everything starts to taste like mush. I will never come here again unless they higher their quality and not give me food poisoning. read more

I got more fat than steak. After cutting the fat off I had a 3 by 2 piece of meat left over. That's like like 5 bites. It was also supposed to be rare and wasn't. Whoever served this was just lazy. read more

Been here a couple times and the food is godawful and incredibly salty. My pro tip if you absolutely have to eat here is take small amounts of food you're tricked into thinking may be good, and take small bites. Salad bar is good. read more

A wide variety of good food including the best salad bar in Spokane. Nice selection of entrees. I really like the poached mystery fish fillets and tartar sauce. read more

Great buffet! It's your all-American food buffet. Fried chicken, mashed potatoes, etc. Had some pasta, pizza, bbq, etc. It was good and kids were happy! Friendly service. Would visit again! read more

The food wasn't the best. I've had much better food from this restaurant in the past. While in line to get food, a worker cut in front of me to get her food. I understand they have limited time to eat but to cut in front of a customer is wrong. If that's the normal, I will never come back or recommend this restaurant again. There was a lot of items that needed to be refilled in the salad bar and after watching a worker look at it, went and did something else instead of refilling salad dressing and other items. I'm very sad to see this restaurant be in this shape. Hopefully the dinner crew takes more pride in their job and makes sure there is ample food available. Now the young lady that took care of our drinks and cleaning the table was wonderful. She went out of her way to help all the customers in her area. Very polite and friendly. read more

Come on, how can you not love this place? The food is actually good and pretty darn fresh for a buffet and the place is clean and updated since COVID. It's a great place for people watching because it's like the Walmart of the buffet and restaurant industry. There's some interesting people there. I see all these reviews about nasty and rude employees. I go there about twice a year and everyone is so darn friendly from the front counter girl to the waiters and waitresses to the cooking staff behind the steaks. And the steak! Their steak is pretty damn good. Always tender always juicy and those guys behind the grill actually do know what they're doing. I've got no problem with this place in for a buffet in Spokane, it's the best one to go to because the other buffet places totally suck and they're all dried out and nasty and no one can even understand you. Golden corral is pretty cool. What are you expecting? Waiters in tuxedos? Sure it's gotten a little expensive... Almost $20 per person but if you're a light eater, maybe you don't want to go here. Just forget everything else you heard from people being all negative about it and give it a try if you have it already. read more

The food isn't very good, and the service is mid. It was fairly clean though. Just cost too much for what it was.

Food was cold and old!!! The steam tables were close to empty and what was in them were dried out and very unappetizing!! It was 1 pm , so things should have been as good as the lunch would be? The staff was friendly, lucky for them. Thats probably what keeps people coming back?? read more

Not a great customer service experience, when I asked for steak more than one time they got upset about it. Even the assistant manager came around/to my table asking me if I was a local, honestly very uncomfortable moment. read more

Honestly some of the worst pizza I've ever had!! Paid $30 for a lackluster taco pizza that lacked flavor and ingredients. A frozen pizza at the grocery store would have been a better choice. One and done for me!! read more

I love how they remodeled the restaurant, looks more awesome and of course I could eat the fried chicken every day it's that good. It's been awhile since I was here and would come back in the future. read more

Okay I didn't like the visit at all. The line to just get in was long... We had to wait standing holding drink trays way to long before being seated. The restaurant was very dirty and the service was not good. The quality of the food was not good and they could not keep up with the demand so many things were out. Way to many people... Not going back. read more
