Golden Corral Buffet & Grill - Buffets Near Me - Universal City, Texas

The service has went down. The server did not talk to me several times after I said thank you. When she returned with my second refill of Sprite, it was flat and tasted like flavored water. The redeeming factor is always the food. The cashier asked me did I want to get cash out to leave a tip. I don't want to but it's the day after Christmas and maybe she wanted to be off today. Idk. I'll give her the benefit of the doubt. read more

$95.20!!! Holy sticker shock. Well let's start. Golden coral not known for the absolute tastiest food. But, my family loves the selection that is offered. Typically we head to the one on Loop 410. This one is absolutely different. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Floors were sticky.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]All of the machines are well past their prime and are loud and struggling.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Selection of food was absolutely minimal... seriously minimal. I understand that this restaurant is smaller and has a different layout, but there was hardly anything except for the same tired fried food selections. One strong point our waitress was nice. Gunna take this one as a loss. I will avoid. Did not get a hundred dollars worth of a meal. Feel ripped off. read more

I honestly haven't been to Golden Corral in a long time and decided to give it a try again, this location is was decent. I can say that the food was hot and they would change it out when it would it would get low. The price is definitely not worth it since the food choices were very low which made me think about customers who are vegetarian the only option they have is a salad. The manager on duty this day was not nicest him and the girls that work the front counter are constantly watching everyone and he seemed to be hovering around listening to everyone's conversations when there are tables that need cleaning. read more

Decided to swing through here for a Friday night dinner w/ the fam. Figured it would an ideal place with something for everyone. Didn't think that it would cost $70+ for a family of three. They offered all the usual suspects on the buffet line. Bad pizza, over fried chicken, soupy Mac and cheese and so on. Best thing to eat this visit were the yeast rolls. Super soft, warm, and with just a hint of honey butter brushed on them. The service was as expected. Loud and busy was the theme for this night. I'm thinking we should've just gone somewhere like Chili's and got better food for less money read more

My kids and I enjoyed the food, and the waitress was very polite and attentive. [[HIGHLIGHT]]However the ambiance could use some care.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I would recommend this place for small gatherings and meeting settings. read more

Golden corral buffet is great. The one on 410. Service is great good food. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's a clean place.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I love going there. I get rewards points every time I go there I scan my ticket. Thank you. read more

Lately the food temperature has been lukewarm. [[HIGHLIGHT]]And even though our table attendees are pleasant and helpful retrieve drinks and other needs, the atmosphere in the seating area is not always clean; this takes away from the ambiance and the enjoyment of what could be a good meal[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. As a pescatarian, I would like if there were more seafood choices. read more

Food is old looking Poor quality of food,looks old and not rotating properly Lots of empty trays and poor choices Looks like they struggle to preserve quality and quantity food This place will close soon enough The one in new Braunfels is top notch all the time and never disappoints The manager in charge needs to be replaced with someone else quickly read more

I always love going to Golden Corral. However, unless the price went up from two weeks ago, this particular Golden Corral seems more expensive than the one I normally go to in Victoria Texas. Customer Service was excellent and the food was amazing, like always. The Ambiance was good too. I would definitely go back. You have an array and assortment of foods to choose from. You can't fill everything you want to eat on one plate, trust me, more than one plate is going to be needed. read more

Golden Corral Buffet & Grill - Baked Lemon Herb Fish, Broccoli, Green Beans. - Buffets Near Me - Universal City, Texas

For starters the food was disgusting, no ranch for salads said low fat ranch but tasted disgusting waitress sucked didnt come to table was nice to other people around us felt like some type of racism was going on there and the bakery guy yelled out at me was being rude would never recommend read more

Seriously I have been to buffets all around different states also in Las Vegas at casinos. I have never seen a crowd like I saw that day. I swear you think these people have never seen food. I don't think people understand it's all you can eat. Not all you can carry. The unsupervised children. The adults acting like kids and don't get me started on the staff. The final straw was the family that was there before we started eating and left after us but, the mom goes up and gets 6 pcs of fried chicken and proceeds to wrap them in napkins and puts them in here purse. You just spent $20 a head to get in. You steal chicken? Low life's. read more

This used to be the place to fo with your families. But over the years I understand with inflation but, wow the food quality does NOT match the price. And if I'm paying 19.00 for lunch I expect it to be good. And I also expect the ice cream machine to be working at these prices. Family of 4 for 80.00 for lunch. Could've went to papaduex, long horn , outback and probably came out more reasonable. Then I was over charged an extra 4.00 for a drink. Smh. Won't be a next time. read more

This used to be my favorite place years ago. Now it's run down, not appetizing and the restaurant just has a thick wierd smell to it. The food was nit worth almost $30 a person. The only thing I liked was the cake and ice cream and I'm NOT a sweets person but I at least wanted to get my monies worth. The waiter was very friendly and attentive. read more

Everything was horrible I kept trying to find anything that would taste good like absolutely....nothing was good !!! service wasn't that great I had to ask for hot sauce and A1 sauce I really do miss the old Golden Corral hospitality RIP GC‍ read more

As you expect, you shall receive. Tried and true. Great American food. I love the bread pudding! read more

i decided to give gc a try after many years. as always, i manage expectations at a buffet. i've found if this is your plan then you're usually ok. i came on a sunday at noon so the church crowd was arriving. seems like a good day to come here. people dressed nicely and still in a "giving" mood. it makes trip to the steam table not such a game of thunderdome. tried.. chicken strip fried shrimp roasted potatoes w gravy steak meatloaf sliced ham fried fish ‍ grilled chicken mac n cheese ‍ roll pot roast steak fries didn't try these "can't miss" items...p baked potato corn on the cobb boiled egg salad greens sliced fruit soft serve avoided.. baked fish spaghetti and meat sauce banana pudding salad bar additional items dessert bar assorted attempts at vegetables pizza the meatloaf was bizarre but edible. the hot roll was a doughy mess. otherwise, the food items were ok. it's all a very average experience. just eat. the "avoided" items mean that i looked at them and they either looked terrible or i didn't want to risk it. read more

Literally the ice cream machine is down at this location more than the McFlurry machines at any local McDonald's... go to the new braunfels location if you want ice cream staff lied and said it was operational my daughter is crushed. When I brought the issue up to management nothing was done! Thanks for nothing! read more

The food was cold, looked like it had been made somewhere else and heated up from a bag and left out too long. I will never go back.

Of all the Golden Corrals I've been to in San Antonio this place by far has the best Brisket. It's the only place with actually smoked brisket and the server gave me some special bourbon bbq sauce. Perfect service. read more

This all you can eat buffet has some of the best food, and while I did not try all of it. All of this food looked so delicious, also the waiter in my section picked up my sisters food right when we sat down. The place is also very squished and a lot of people were here so I was annoyingly cramped. But the French fries were amazing. The chicken is nothing special very ok. read more

This Golden Corral on Pat Booker Rd. in Universal City, Texas is the best one yet. Their customer service with their customers are great, understanding, and just plain helpful. The foods here are also great. If you're going to try a Golden Corral and living in the San Antonio/Converse/Universal City/Live Oak area, go to this location, as you will not be disappointed with this restaurant/buffet type. read more

This is one of the best restaurants in the area. The people are nice and the food is good. The assortment is always nice, hot and good. Like everywhere else you can have a single bad experience but I find it's the customers who don't respect buffet style. If your a senior where else can you eat all you want for under $10. Even $15 for a regular meal is a good deal. I pay that price at a fast food drive thru and the food is much better at The Golden. I recommend it 100%. If your gonna compare it to a five star steak house at $100 a plate you win. read more

I'm not happy anymore the choices were not filled had to scrape the serving vessels to get something that was barely hot ,they don't replenish the food often enough ,the prices have gone up considerably,the deserts have never tasted really good,and the buffet is only one line so it takes forever to get food have to stand in one line like school cafeteria or military style ,other golden corrals have a much better layout for getting food ,than the PatBooker one which isn't very clean either in my opinion ,food was spilled onto counters without being cleaned up . read more

Came to have a meal here with my husband and the only thing I can say that was decent was literally our drinks. The food was horrible and cold not to mention tasted like it was not made fresh and just frozen food they keep in the back and just reheat it. Don't waste your time at this location definitely go elsewhere even if you have to drive! Do not recommend at all you'll be wasting your money here for sure!! read more

I am a Golden Corral connoisseur. The staff are friendly people, but everything else is horrible. You ask for a well done steak and you get a steak from the raw fresh meat aisle from HEB. The smell of dirty wet carpet lingers the restaurant. Flies fly around your face as you attempt to eat your one star meal. I understand this is an older establishment, but this place needs a whole upgrade. read more

Had dinner with the family there on Sunday 11/21 & got the worst food poisoning of my life. I would never wish how I felt on my worst enemy. Do not recommend this place the plates were dirty the restrooms were disgusting literally feces smeared on the seats, on toilet paper left on the ground & even pieces of feces on the floor. I'm sure the people who eat there are to blame but the establishment can be a little more diligent with maintaining cleanliness. We had not been to a buffet since before Covid but I will NEVER go back. So gross save your money people! read more
