    I have to side with the negative reviewers on this one. I get that several buffet places haven't…read morebeen the same since Covid and a lot of them are now gone. But because this was somewhat near the edge of town, I thought this would be a nice place. I did read mixed reviews on Google, but Yelp had mostly negatives. The selection was very poor, and there were some basics like crab rangoon (which surprisingly wasn't that good) and rice, noodles, yada. I also have to agree with the reviewer that talked about the front counter guy as he acted like he was afraid of me. Don't get me wrong, I am not one to poke fun at one's disabilities...he should've been placed somewhere else in the restaurant.

    So I'm in Rome, New York, right? And I'm starving. I mean, I haven't eaten since breakfast, and…read moreit's already dinner time and I'm thinking, there's gotta be some decent restaurants in this town, right? But no. No, they don't. All they have is fast food. Fast food everywhere. McDonald's, Taco Bell, KFC. And then I see it. A sign. A sign that says "Kings Buffet". And I think, maybe this is it. Maybe this is my salvation. Maybe this is where I'll find some real food. Some authentic, delicious, satisfying food. And I look at the reviews online, and they're mixed. I don't care. I'm desperate. I'm willing to take a chance. I'm willing to gamble with my stomach. So I go in. And I see the food. And it's... standard. Standard buffet quality. Nothing special. Nothing terrible. Just... food. And there's a lot of it. A lot of variety. And I'm surprised by the variety of non-Asian food on the menu. I'm hungry. I'm not picky. I'm not snobby. I'm not a food critic. I'm just a gal who wants to eat. So I grab a plate, and I pile it up. I pile it up with everything. Everything I can fit on the plate. And I go to my table, and I start eating. And it's... good. It's hot, it's fresh, it's filling. It reminds me a little bit of the Golden Corral. And I enjoy it. I enjoy my dinner. I go in hungry, and I leave full. And I think, that's all I can ask for. That's all I can ask for from a buffet.

    I'm not normally a fan of buffets and was kinda dreading coming here for lunch on my bus trip but I…read morewas pleasantly surprised after my visit. The buffet areas were clean and the staff wore gloves when serving. We were a large group so they gave us our own room. We had several waitresses so our plates were taken away promptly and drink orders filled right away. I chose the unsweetened iced tea and it was perfect. I tried samples of several things but my favorites were the steak (cooked medium rare) and salad. The salad bar is amazing with so many choices and the steak was a pleasant surprise and tasty. The deserts were just ok but the soft serve ice cream was the best for me. Altogether a great experience and for someone who dislikes buffets I will be back so that is a tribute to how good a job they are doing here at this location.

    I'll be honest -- Golden Corral isn't usually my first choice when it comes to dining out. But my…read moreniece loves it, so we came here for her 6th birthday dinner (Her choice). And honestly, I was pleasantly surprised by this particular location! First off, the restaurant was very clean especially in comparison to other locations that I've visited, not overly packed, and the crowd seemed to come in waves, so it never felt overwhelming. I do want to mention that I came on a Sunday afternoon around 3:15 PM. They have two large rooms for larger parties. We sat in one of them. The staff was amazing -- they were so friendly and even familiar with my niece since we've brought her here a few times. They even came out and sang happy birthday to her, which just made her whole night! I do want to note that they told us if it's someone in your parties birthday, you do have to request for them to sing. They're no longer allowed to just sing to the birthday person without you asking for it. One thing that really shocked me: they have a slushie machine here! I've never seen that at a Golden Corral before. Such a cute touch, especially for kids. Now for the food -- it's definitely a hit-or-miss situation, but that's kind of the beauty of a buffet. You can pick and choose what you like! * The clam chowder soup was delicious -- full of flavor. * The rice with sausage was another favorite -- very flavorful. * The sweet potato casserole topped with marshmallows was really good, just a bit on the sweeter side. * The fried shrimp was solid too. * The strawberry cake looked amazing and tasted just as good. Some dishes missed the mark a bit -- I personally didn't care for the baked chicken, and my mom said the baked fish wasn't great either. But again, when you have so many options, it's easy to find something you'll enjoy. Overall, Golden Corral is one of those family-friendly places where not everyone will love the same thing, but everyone will leave happy and full. It's affordable, casual, and perfect for larger groups when you don't want the hassle of structured menus or high prices. I normally don't leave reviews for places like this, but this location definitely stood out -- newer, cleaner, great vibe, and the staff made it an even better experience. Would definitely recommend if you're in the area looking for an easy, family-style meal without breaking the bank!

Walk into an old fashioned lobby like walking into an old movie. The staff at the desk was friendly, the housekeeping staff was super friendly. The pool was closed so I could only view through the window. There was a conference room, and a short walk down the hall to the Verona Casino. Lots of parking, and you can sit outside and enjoy watching the harness racing. Very cool. I actually also had a view of the racing from my room. The room itself was clean, but again could use some upgrades. The bedding was old blankets, no comforter, coffee maker, fridge, microwave, and some coffee packets. Ice machine was right down the hall. Small couch and table with two chairs in the room. It is very comfortable. Did not get the resultant but it looks nice. Worth a visit if you are in the area and want to go to turning stone casino which is much higher priced.

    Locals recommended this restaurant when I asked about Chinese buffet. We hadn't had buffet for…read more3yrs, since Covid19. We were happy with the Flaming Grill. It is a HUGE place, but it was lightly visited while we were there at 5pm on a Thursday. There were ~5 islands of hot food, 1 of cold w salads, a sushi area, an icecream novelty case, 4-6 soups. There was a Hibatchi area in back corner but I didn't try it. There were many types of breaded, fried, sauced chicken...all a bit dried out. The coconut shrimp was a little dried out. The green beans were tasty but limp. The rice noodles were a bit plain. I did not try the fish nor roast beef. BF said the pork was dry but good. But the SHELLFISH was really exceptional. Clams of different sizes, muscles in sauce, cold shrimp, hot shrimp, shrimp boil. My BF was like a bear in honey! Everything was clean but the place smelled oddly of petroleum? Service was quick and we felt relaxed. The bill was OK. Yes, we will come here again, when in the mood for Chinese buffet!
