    We went for breakfast today and were thrilled! So many options and they were all delicious. Usually at a buffet, some foods are good and some are blah, and flavors aren't always that great.... but this place is different! Everything I got on my first trip was fabulous. So then I kept trying more, just to see if there was anything that wasn't great... but it all was! Everything was impressive, from the salad bar to the dessert aisle (5 tier chocolate fountain, ice cream case, tons of cakes and pies and other stuff). You could see fresh fruits and veggies piled up in a refrigerated area in the back. Very cool for the kids to get to see that. Service was wonderful! Our waitress was so nice. When we were leaving, my 9 year old said he wished he had paper, a pencil, and tape, so he could tape a sign to the door that says "best restaurant ever!" My 12 year old says he found his new favorite breakfast spot.

    This was one of the better golden corals I've been to. Food was fresh, and the restaurant was clean. The reason I didn't give a 5 star review was due to them not having fried chicken which was a 20 minute wait, and for charging me for a roll and salad dressing for carryout. Normally, they give you a small bag for bread, and small containers for salad dressing that don't count toward your weight. Other than that, I was completely satisfied.

    This was in Austin, TX while visiting my sister there. The food was fresh and hot. I recommend this restaurant to anybody that is looking for a nice dinner with family, friends, or dining by self. Very good.

    First time visiting a Golden Corral all the way from Boston! This place is amazing. Very clean! Fresh food! Well oiled run machine here and the line moves quickly after you pay & enter. Great atmosphere here and I’m sure to be back!

    For as much as they charge per person the food quality could be better. The chili and soups looked as if they had been there for days. All crusted on the side of the pot. The potato skins were just gross 😝. The restrooms are disgusting and the place over all needs a good thorough cleaning. Our waitresses Lee was very nice and kept refilling our drinks. That was the only good experience there. Do not recommend.
