As far as I'm concerned, Golden Corral mashed potatoes should be part of the food pyramid…read more No matter how picky you are, you will find something tasty that fits your dietary needs here. The rolls, mashed potatoes, steak, and dessert bar are all infamous but there's more to choose from too - including a great salad bar! The reason why I've deducted two stars is that the price of this once family affordable place has gone up quite a bit and is now in competition with mid-priced restaurants. Also, there is a crowd issue here. The wait staff and cooks do a great job but for some reason, Golden Corral, especially in Odessa, tends to attract a clientele that just thrives on making messes and being loud so the ambiance is not very pleasant.

I arrived the Golden Corral around 5 o'clock. The first place i hit, what's the salad bar?…read moreThe salad bar was almost empty. I waited for about one hour and they did not refill the salad bar. I wasn't happy after that I. Ate stop at the videos and it was good. But the only thing is they never refilled the salad. I will not recommend if you love salad. Don't go there. You won't get it

Tried to order one more thing before leaving but it took a good 15 mins to even get help and left with out getting the last thing I ordered due to how long it took.... Left still hunger with it being all you can eat to pay $75 for 2 to not even leave full is ridiculous

I really liked Fortune Cookie! I don't think it warrants such negative reviews but from what it…read moreseems most stuff in Odessa is fairly low rated? The buffet had a ton of offerings, all of which were fresh and flavorful. I was visiting a friend in the area and I would say it stacks up well with the Chinese food I've had in other places. I personally liked the Sweet and Sour pork, which is my Chinese food staple, the beef and broccoli, and the won ton soup.

This was by far the worst food I ever had. Greasy, bland, and I got food poisoning. Plus it wasnt…read moreeven all chinese im pretty sure they dont have enchaladas in china.

What should have been an hour and mybe 15 minutes turned into over two hours due to the waiting for service after being seated. It was our 25th wedding anniversary dinner and it turned into sorry event. Our server looked hispanic long thick hair, was concentrating more on the bar then us in the other dining room. Poor protocol, service and sorry management. As much as I like their food, I pay to be served not to be ignored.

Im usually not that into…read morechains like TJIFridays, Chiles, ect but when we saw on a work trip that nearby Odessa had RED LOBSTER we HAD to drive out of our way to go out there to try it. We received water and piping hot cheesy biscuits soon after being seated. These biscuits were a religious experience, that's all I can say. Our food came out really quickly after we ordered and was also super hot and very fresh. We loved everything we got. The scallops skewers were so good I suggest adding them on to any entree from the ala carte menu. The lobster cheese sauce you can add onto your sides was well worth it. Our waitress was really attentive and we had a great meal; We'd come back next time we're close by!
