The food was really good better than most buffets. Only problem was the food there is too much of everything. Service was good considering the place was pretty busy it was near excellent. read more

This visit was a huge disappointment compared to the previous two. Our server, Jordan, came right over after seated and asked if I wanted a potato. I did not, but my dining companion might. He said he would come right back. Well, it was exactly 29 minutes until he returned to take dirty plates. He never asked if we needed refills or anything. By far, the worst service we have had at this location. The food bar was not as good as previous visits. The fish was tough, as if it had been out a long time. The shrimp was dry and tasteless. The salad bar was fresh, but only offer iceberg lettuce. The steak was cooked as ordered, but was mostly fat. The beer-battered fish was hot and tasted good. The carrot cake was good. I feel like this was money wasted. Seating is comfortable and not crowded. The noise level is high, but expected with so many people. read more

I used to come here anytime I went to Winchester and loved it. The food was fresh and always tasty. Oh, how that has changed! I arrived at 7 pm for dinner. For a senior buffet and iced tea it cost almost $23, and that didn't include the tip. I should have known things had changed when I walked in and it wasn't clean. There was no tray for your plate and drink. When I went to the bar I had a hard time finding anything that didn't look disgusting. Everything, and I mean everything, was dried up, overcooked, and cold. There was a stack of steaks sitting on a stand that they gave you. They didn't come off a grill. The floors weren't clean and the bathroom was dirty. The dessert bar looked like it had been attacked by a pack of scavengers. The service was satisfactory. I will not be returning. read more

Great variety BUT-- the food wasn't turned over as it should have been so the meat, potatoes and fish dishes were dry and honestly inedible.Desserts were good. The staff on the floor were very friendly but behind the buffets ugh! It was definitely a fast food,get out, kind of place. You get what you pay for!! If you're traveling and have no idea what everyone will agree on, go for it! The kids will love the pizza as always! Good luck! Not for us. read more

Eat the bbque ribs put lots of bbque sauce on it ribs a week ago then ate shredded chicken put tons of sause on it

If you are an all you can eat person then this place will not disappoint you. The food is good. Salads are wonderful. I don't go often but is always the same each time I go there. Eat your favorites read more

Just a quick update: We like it, and it's still a Golden Corral with all the plusses and the occasional minus. After our most recent visit -- it's within walking distance of the Holiday Inn where we spent the night -- we found the food pretty good (like usual) and the servers pretty friendly (as usual). The buffet is loaded with all kinds of food, from collards, beans and mashed potatoes to roast beef, fried chicken and pizza. The salad bar is tasty and so is the dessert bar (especially if you appreciate chocolate). Prices are up a bit since our last stop ($16 for dinner), but it still seems something of a bargain us, and we don't arrive here with the highest expectations. You shouldn't either. read more

I order from here often. They have a good deal on individual meals (entree with 2 sides & dinner roll). Tonight I ordered the 5 Oz sirloin steak and it was SO tough I couldn't cut it with a sharp steak knife. Was very disappointing because the flavor was good. I needed a chain saw to cut it. My sides were very good. I won't order the steak from here again. read more

I had never been to Golden Corral before, but since it was next door to our hotel and we needed to eat we went. I honestly wasn't expecting much. I was soooo pleasantly surprised with the quality of the food and the friendliness of the staff even with it being towards the end of the night! This location had a very large parking lot and the entrance and restaurant were very clean and inviting. The food looked really fresh and temperature safe. Even though we came about an hour before close, I saw the chefs adding new hot food out to the buffet. Our waiter even jumped in on our conversations and was very friendly. My life has changed forever from this eating experience and I would 100% go to Golden Corral again! read more

A good option for a buffet in this area. They have lots of good options from hot eats to fruits, salads and dessert. Something for everyone which is one of the reasons for going to buffet. Been to lots of Golden Corrals and I must admit that this is one of the best ones in terms of cleanliness, service and good food. The wait staff was on attentive and the food was well prepared. I loved that they have icee machines and cotton candy for dessert is a plus. My favorites were the chicken liver, steak and pork chops. These were weekend options so not sure if those are available all the time. They do offer senior discounts and children rates. Weekday prices are better deals but weekends have premium pricing, so see what works best for you. If you are in the area, come visit this buffet. Will not be disappointed. I like this location cuz it is right across from Costco, where you can get bulk groceries and discounted gas in this area while here. Make sure to sign up for their rewards program and you can accumulate points and discounts on future visits. read more

I thought the food here was really good for my $11 and they're already in the house, so what are you doing?.98. I enjoyed the fried chicken livers, the brown gravy, and the stuffing. Wings were good and the desserts plentiful. Service was good. Overall I was surprised that it was clean and decently run. The military discount of $1 is a joke though. I'd go back here again. read more

DO NOT GO HERE. me and my 3 friends all went here yesterday and we have been throwing up all day and night I can't drink or eat anything and can barely keep my eyes open. I only wake up to throw up. All 3 of us had to call off of work. So yeah. DONT RISK IT. felt like dying. Would give 0 stars if possible. read more

I have never had a bad experience. Food is always hot always good always in plenty supply. Staff is always friendly and accommodating.

Please teach your meat cutter what the different temperatures are. This guy had absolutely no idea and would just stare at me blankly and just give me whatever he felt like. Also - the other food was gross and not being replaced - just drying up. Skip this location. read more

The restaurant is kind of old, and one section had a really bad smell to it, but the food was really good and the price was really good. Just avoide the stinky section and you're all set. Go early to avoid the rush, it looks like it gets pretty crowded around 6. read more

Best Buy for variety and volume . All-you-can-eat buffet. Heavy on Fried foods and desserts but their is a good assortment of vegetables, too. Lots of comfort foods like meatloaf,mashed potatoes and rice. Not gourmet but choices available to please most folks. A little noisy,. Kept clean. Food : 3/5 Service 5/5 Location 4/5. Handy to motels, shopping, businesses off a major highway. Facility 3/5. Plenty of parking Price 5/5 for the buffet style restaurant read more

It's a buffet. Don't come expecting a gourmet meal. But for American favorites like crispy fried chicken, meatloaf and even prime rib (that rivals most restaurants) its hard to beat, especially for the price. Mashed potatoes and other sides are made from scratch. Staff is very accommodating, and will, for example, grill your steak rare, or scare up some fresh horseradish from the kitchen. read more

I must say it all depends on what state you go to all Golden Corral are not the same but Winchester Virginia hands down Golden Corral number one in my book and I'm from Pittsburgh our waitress Janice was so polite and attentive that I almost didn't want to leave they also have great social distance going on their too. The wore masks and gloves and the food was really hot i love when I can got to a buffet and it has hot food on the station. Some places act like temp warm is ok no it not. So I was happy and surprised to have sure hot and good food. read more

Server was on point and made the dinner better. We tipped on the high side because she was amazing. I'm not sure if it was because we arrived at 7pm but food looked very dry and unappealing. We all found something to eat but the salad section was the best. read more

I got there at 7:30, they close at 9. They were already washing the floors, which left them slippery. Food was not labelled and could not identify what it was. Food that was supposed to have gravy on it did not and was dry. The bins that were supposed to have gravy in them had very little. Food did not look appetizing. I went to the dessert bar and found it to look like someone had played with it, meaning it was smeared over and mixed. The cakes looked like they had melted. The pies were just crushed. There was very little to put on the ice cream. Again unappetizing. I drove 10 hours, decided to eat here because it was across the street from the hotel I was staying in, and could not enjoy the food. I just left. read more

The place was clean, and everyone was friendly. The steak, corn on cob, and mashed potatoes were my favorite! read more

Golden Corral Buffet & Grill - American Near Me - Winchester, Virginia

This is a place to be avoided for any number of reasons related to the quality of the food. Service is okay at best. It's a buffet - and if you like cheap buffet's with lots of greasy artery hardening choices for main dishes this might be for you. The drinks from the soda fountain taste like they were made with dirty unfiltered well water. The Bleu Cheese dressing tastes more like mayonnaise than bleu cheese dressing. Pizza tasted more like cardboard than pizza and the steak was like trying to cut through a hockey puck. The salads were okay at best, but like I said about the dressing - it was mostly mayo and that was a huge turn off. My inlaws like the place, mostly because it's cheap and they can gorge themselves in a gluttonous frenzy. I would prefer never to go back again if I don't have to. read more

We're so thankful this is still open. We had wonderful customer service. It's such a winner with our large family. Everyone is happy. They were all working hard exchanging food often. We look forward to our next visit. They always have wonderful options. read more

We ate at the Winchester, VA restaurant and were supposed to get a 10% discount because of the hotel we stayed at. Our bill came to $32.96 before tax and they only gave me $0.50 for the discount, when I asked the Manager, Steve, said it was because we got senior buffets and they were already discounted. He told me not to bother coming back. I've never been treated like that! read more

Golden Corral Buffet & Grill - Hmm STEAK - American Near Me - Winchester, Virginia

The food was just ok. Most of the meat on the buffet was chicken. Not many meat options on the day we visited. Some of the veggies looked dry and had been sitting out for a bit. My biggest complaint is the cleanliness. The restaurant needs a professional cleaning! The musty smell of the carpet permeates through the building. The plus side is that the waiters and waitresses were amazing and very attentive. read more

I went there on Tuesday 6/17/2019 at about 2:30pm. Its wasn't very busy at all. I guess the lunch rush had already ended. First off, I started with a salad. Salad bar was stocked and fresh. Except the deviled eggs. They were old, and very rubbery. Then, i got some Aunt bee's fried chicken. It was cold and flavorless. I also had the Bourbon chicken, it was ok. I also attempted the saurkraut and kilbasa, it was so salty and vinegary I could even bare it. I also tried the roasted chicken. It too was horrible and cold. The only thing that was fresh on the hot bar was the fried fish. I decided to not try anymore hot food and moved to dessert. I had the bread pudding and Apple pie. The pie was ice cold, and the bread pudding was pretty bland and hard. It seemed like they stopped serving fresh food because it wasnt busy and it was getting close to dinner time (4pm). The server only took used plates and never stuck around long enough to ask if we needed refills on our drinks. This morning (9/18/2019) I am so sick to my stomach that I cant leave the house. Never again will I patronize this restaurant. read more

Great food, great service and great staff. I come here often. Great deals and selection for an all you can eat buffet.

Wow! Waited 15 minutes in line that did not move. Line was out the door. Way to lose customers GC! read more

Went there last night and the food wasn't the best. It has been better in the past. But I saw cockroaches running around the buffet and told one of the workers and she didn't seem surprised and said sorry and walked away. So my husband and me lost our appetites. I saw the manager and brought it to his attention and he didn't seem surprised either. Told me they have been dealing with them for a few months and asked is there anything else he can help me with. I told him they were trying to crawl on the food and he said well did you actually see them on the food? I won't go back. The health dept. needs to do surprise inspection and shut them down to this gets taking care of! read more

To make this "worthwhile" you need to pick and choose. I see too many people filling their plates 4-5" high, and frankly, it's disgusting. Their meat selections are fair to poor. The steak is a bit tough, with fat and grissle. Their meatloaf is average. The baked fish is average. Popcorn shrimp is so small I think a small gumball size would describe it. Not a fan of clam strips, being a spoiled New-Englander who only likes the real deal, full bellied clams that can be had at Legal Seafood locations around the country. Lots of stems in the collard greens. The cabbage looked good (even tho I didn't sample it). The sweet potato casserole is excellent. Salad bar is plentiful and maintained well. The dessert bar is a draw with the chocolate fountain for fresh strawberries, macaroons, etc. Their carrot cake is excellent. Wait staff is stretched thin. Leave a good tip because it's not their fault that they are understaffed, AND people generally don't tip generously at buffet restaurants. Don't go to eat all you can eat. Eat one or two plates of carefully selected items and you will feel satisfied when you are done. read more

This place is dangerous!!! I gave it three stars, because well, it is what it is. It is a cheap buffet of a TON of food. Some items on the buffet are actually really good, most aren't though. And then there is the fact, that you are going to eat WAAAAAY too much here. I do have to admit we don't go there any longer, it just isn't healthy. But cheap and good as long as you go in knowing what to expect. read more

Golden Corral Buffet & Grill - The smell of the swine was killing me!!! - American Near Me - Winchester, Virginia

Typical buffet experience. Definitely a lot of food to choose from, definitely not a very expensive price tag. Overall, definitely better than the Hibachi buffet around the corner, but what you see here will be a lot of food, some of which is better quality than other items. This though is to be expected from a buffet. read more

Very disappointed in the cleanliness. Children were allowed to help themselves to the bar. I saw plates dropped on floor and places back in rack. This is unacceptable even when not during a pandemic. read more

The salad bar was the highlight of the Golden Corral buffet experience for me. It was huge and the items look like they were fresh and well presented earlier in the day. Otherwise there was a wide array of nice dinner choices. Don't be late for dinner however they close at 9 pm. We arrived at 8:30 pm and they had shut down the grill and were already scrubbing, cleaning and closing down the restaurant all around us and it was very distracting as we felt quite rushed. read more
