The chicken was hard and seems reheated.
Anna L.

The food was not fresh, or tasty at all. The chicken was hard and uncooked properly. I had been here numerous times years back but had never experienced this. The food requires major improvement, and freshness of preparation. The fruit was decent and seemed fresh. The facility in general did not seemed clean or sanitized. The personnel were not welcoming at all. Overall, very poor quality.

We went on New Year's Eve, and the host was really nice

Buffet was actually pretty good except that they charge for kids 2 years old and ver have i even know of a restaurant that charges for kids 3 and under.

A lots food options including certain seafoods. Taste is like normal Chinese buffet. Adult Price is 15.79$ after taxes. Pretty nice and clean. After quarantine, happy to find this big place to dine in. A lot customers, but not crowded currently. I visited here Sunday. Because the customers quantities makes the food run fresh.

The cons and pros *Green smirs on are plates and cups *Food get cold as soon as you sit down *we went during dinner and it was not worth the pay Pros *They have chicken nuggets *Wide variety of food I would only go again if I heard they were remodeling cause it's very run down

It has a good selection of items but my favorite is the Mongolian Grill which cooks with steam instead of oil.

Great customer service. Amazing food. Definitely worth visiting if you're in the area.read more

This place is one of my top recommendations to people when they ask me about good restaurants in…read moreJuarez, unfortunately is not Mexican food, but a Brazilian steakhouse. First of all if you go a saturday or sunday 3-7pm you would most likely find a waiting line of up to an 1hr, the food is that good. There is a salad bar with all types of sides: potatoes, cold pasta salads, rice, breads, even wings, spaghetti, etc I can't remember all of them but its varied, you have a lot of options but be careful not to get full on the sides and vegetables because they're really good but you still have to wait on the main course. The waiters/caters come table to table with their different meat cuts and they serve them on your plate, they're not cold, they meat is on a ESPADA (sword) that comes right out of the flames, sometimes it's sizzling still. You can tell them to bring a special meat that you like as many times you want, and you can stay there at the restaurant as much as your stomach allows you, it's a buffet but instead of you going to serve yourself, the waiters bring the meat to you, my personal favorite CHISTORRA (it's a chorizo like meat with a salty and porky flavor). They have a variety of drinks but the wine options in here are the main thing, make sure to ask for your favorite wine they probably have it. So if you're feeling really hungry for meat i mean A LOT of meat, stop by Espadas and have a bite, or 2...... or 30. The attention is good and they take credit cards and cash USD dollars. And there also a menu for deserts if you still are craving something sweet (but these are paid separately), I usually just take the grilled pineapple with cinnamon that comes in a sword as well, DELICIOUS!

First off, some of the food was okay but was subpar. Their fried chicken? I would rather have…read moreChurch's or Jollibee. The worst part is how they have a discount for veterans, but you don't see this anywhere clear, and I didn't see it until I was done eating and halfway to my car. I walked back in and asked about getting this discount refunded to me, and the cashier told me they couldn't. When I asked to see the manager, she just rudely pointed to a sign that was so far up hardly anyone would immediately notice that says discounts like that need to be said before payment is taken. At that point, I just dropped my receipt on the floor and left. Look, I get it. Maybe too many people asked for this after the fact, but one, the 25% discount needs to be more obvious, and two, same goes with the warning to give notice of discount beforehand. The worst thing is I ate there once before the last time I was in the area, and likely didn't know of the veterans discount. Whatever. They don't have to worry about me ever coming back because the food is subpar, like most places like this are nowadays, and I live elsewhere that once had a Luby's but no longer does, and I don't think anyone misses it either.

I was very disappointed with my recent visit. The bread was old and had an unpleasant smell, the…read morefish sticks tasted stale, and the pork was undercooked. On top of that, my unsweetened iced tea was actually sweet. Overall, the food quality was far below expectations -- I hope management takes this feedback seriously and does something about.

So I actually get to GC's about every 2-3 weeks . Sometimes I just don't know what I want. OR I…read moreDEFINITELY want pot roast but I don't wanna make it at home and have it for the next 5-6 days or have to freeze parts of it, etc. or I wanna eat fried chicken until I can't hold any more! LOL! Or I'm craving fried white fish. And popcorn shrimp. Or just veggies or soups and salad(s). I can service all of those at Golden Corral. Now true, they do have some bad days once in a while. They fall behind on refilling items. Or put out food before it's completely ready because people are complaining about "when are you going to have more 'fill in the blank'". You can't rush food, it's done when it done. I always love their pot roast with new potatoes and onions and celery and carrots. I used to order the whole pot roast and veggies family meal from the northeast location during the pandemic. But today, here, it was not good. The pan was dried up. It only had red new potatoes. When a gentleman brought out some "meat" it didn't even resemble the roast they normally serve, it was 3 small pieces that looked like steak? And it had no Au jus or braising liquid or anything. And it was tough. The pot roast is never tough, it always falls apart but I think they were rushing it, I had been there for 30 mins. And they had been out of it that whole time. The place was pretty clean and my waitperson, Karla, was super attentive to me and seemed to always have a broom and dustpan in her hands around the buffet lines. I appreciated how well she was working to keep the floors clean. She was also carrying stacks of clean plates and trays full of dirty dishes to the back. These people work hard and fast. I think they are short handed as it says they are hiring on a few signs around this location. I had several good things to eat this day, Sans the Pot roast. I was really here for the cornmeal breaded fried white fish. I believe it's Swai, very similar to catfish but a third the price. It's always good. The freshly grilled pork chops were good too if you get one that's not too over done. The grill guy said they have to cook it that long. The fried chicken and popcorn shrimp were great. I also had some great veggies today: Brussels Sprouts, corn, fried okra, broccoli and cauliflower covered in cheese. And green beans and some white rice with brown gravy. There are tons of desserts here, even sugar free puddings, but I'm always good with a few fresh baked cookies. Yea it costs about $14 plus another $3.50 Or so for a tea or drink for $17.50 before. Tax and at first you think there is no way you can eat enough to justify that cost but then if you go to any other sit down restaurant and order one entree with the 2 sides you might get and a tea you're gonna pay that some price Or so and not get to go get seconds at all. So it really is a deal. And they do keep Bringing out fresh food. Even if you have to bug them about it for a certain item being out! And they have a rewards program now where you can earn points to get up to $10 off of a future purchase. Thats almost like half price! This is my favorite GC location in El Paso.

Well, there's not much I can say about the place since I've been coming here for a very long time…read moreand I love it, however, until today. Exceptionally today was mind blowing to my Mother and I both, which in fact changed my whole perspective about it's cleanliness and overall establishment .As a very young girl I remember coming here after my games and recitals with my whole family, however this morning as usual my Mother and I went to go grab some lunch. We saw the unexpected and most disturbing thing any food place can experience. We had a full grown cockroach on our table, it was not a baby or small at all, which tells me from my knowledge that this infestation has been here long enough to incubate and grow from an egg to a full grown cockroach, and if you know, where there is one there is many. Of course I had the manager come over to see it for themselves and they went ahead and offered a refund, however that fear and uneasiness of going back at the moment is at its highest. Not to mention that there was a broom and dustpan right next to our table which is not very professional coming from their maintenance department or staff. I wanted to share my experience not to defamate the place but for awareness rather instead, and proper protocol. I hope that this doesn't happy to noone in the future and that the Manager Ron Ramirez does according to our conversation, this is unacceptable.

This used to be me and my husband's favorite place in El Paso.... I should also preface this with…read morehow patient my husband and I are with service workers, it's hard work and we are very grateful for them. Even subpar service warrants a 20% tip from us. We used to be in and out of here in under an hour each time we would come. Unfortunately, the last 3 or 4 times we have been here have been AWFUL experiences. Nothing could compare to tonight... we were sat quickly, our appetizers came in a decent-ish amount of time. Shortly after finishing, we order 2 rolls each... we sat and waited for these rolls for over an HOUR!! It was insanity and I was so over it. Not once did the waiter come around to explain the delay. Our rolls finally come and 3/4 rolls are wrong. We come often, I know what I like and I know what my favorite rolls look like. My husband had to get up and hunt our waiter down to let him know. I was ready to just leave after paying our bill. The waiter comes by with attitude telling me that those are the rolls that we ordered and even after explaining to him how I knew those were not our rolls, he refused to take them back. We were faced with the hard decision of fighting this waiter and getting these off our bill or sucking it up and eating them. Not only were these not my rolls but they not good in the slightest. My husband had to take one for the team and help finish them. Going up to the front counter to pay for our bill, we encountered 3 other couples who had similar experiences and just wanted to get the heck out of there. Other than the ridiculously rude and clueless waiter, this establishment has the worst management (or lack thereof). There is one waiter I want to give a shoutout to. The tall, slim, bald gentleman has been working here since we started coming and he has always given the best service!! Better management would turn this place around but until then, will NOT be back...

Came here for dinner never got served. Waited and waited and waited some more. We finally just left.read more
