steak was very good, cooked just right for a buffet setting
Supawat J.

A Major Upgrade at Golden Corral Hialeah! I recently revisited the Golden Corral Buffet & Grill in Hialeah after about a three-year break, and I was genuinely impressed by the improvements. The entire establishment feels very clean, and the service is much better--attentive, friendly, and efficient. It's clear they've made a real commitment to quality and the customer experience. Plus, redeeming that $5 discount through the app made the already great value even better! The food quality was a major highlight. I must give a special shout-out to the Cuban Pork; it was incredibly juicy and tender--hands down, one of the best buffet pork dishes I've ever had. Beyond that standout, the buffet classics were excellent: the steak was very good, cooked just right for a buffet setting. The vegetables were noticeably fresh, bright, and not overcooked. The popcorn shrimp and fried chicken were perfectly crispy and delicious, and the meatloaf was satisfying comfort food. This visit was a pleasant surprise and a huge step up from previous experiences. If you haven't been in a while, I highly recommend visiting this location to experience the improvements for yourself!

For the price you pay, this is a really good deal. If you are 60 years or older, you can get a senior discount in the early afternoon ($9.99 between 1-3pm). You also get a free drink with your buffet. This location is clean, modern and very stylish. I am used to the old Golden Corral restaurants that look like an old Ponderosa or Sizzler (if you don't know what I am talking about, you were not eating out in the 1980s...LOL). Their selection of salads, Mexican food, soups, vegetables, meats, pizzas, desserts and other items are really good. Many times you go to a salad bar and the leaves or vegetable are not great looking....not here....all the veggies look fresh and taste great.....The staff is constantly replenishing the food as it gets eaten. Nice waitstaff cleaning up the tables. The first Golden Corral restaurant opened in Fayetteville, North Carolina, in 1973. Fifty years later, Golden Corral is America's #1 buffet and grill. Many other buffet restaurants closed shop during the pandemic, as well as some Golden Corral locations in South Florida but several are still going strong. If you are near one and get to go, hope you enjoy the good food !

First time stepping foot inside this restaurant chain and what brought me in was their appealing and mouth watering commercials before lunch time on tv. This location is fairly new. This restaurant was so packed that people were waiting to get in. However, the line moves pretty fast; and once you pay, the hostess does an incredible job in having your party seated in no time. The buffet stations are all spotless and one has to wear disposable gloves to deal with the food. The staff is constantly cleaning stations and replenishing the food. Food - Is very well assorted. From diverse cooked & grilled steaks - to southern fried chicken - to assorted charcuteries - plus all types of pastas and pizzas. For the mindful and conscious eater, there's a salad bar. The dessert stations have cookies, brownies, soft served ice creams and anything in between that'll make a kid happy. Except for the salad bar, I tried a good amount of food from all the stations. All were fresh tasting, enticing and delightful to the palate. Just delicious...!! Not a place that I would frequent often simply because I don't want to have a cardiologist on speed dial but it's definitely COMFORT FOOD at its BEST..! Truly enjoyed the glutton-like experience.. Bon Appétit..!

Clean restaurant with good service. Food was appropriate temperature. Items at buffet where topped off. Plenty of vegetarian and meat options. Banana pudding was excellent!

Jeffrey G.

The service was good, but as I got up to go get food I smell this funky smell. It smelled like straight sh**t. My food, it was pretty good. Although the chicken tried to k!ll me with the amount of salt that was on it. The desert, now I'd never think that ANYONE could mess this up. The disappointment on my face. Cake dryer than the Sahara Dessert, brownie taste like a crayon, the jello was good tho. But back to the smell. The smell was worse than a landfill it smelled like three cans of bounce that a$$ and a cats breath mixed with the teenage mutant ninja turtle sewer water. Now words can't fathom my experience here so I left some pictures of how I felt.

Always great food. EVERYTHING…read more And our server was exceptional. I'm not sure just how many times I've been to Yardbird.... maybe 25 times over years. I'll be going back again and again, for sure.

First and foremost, do not waste your time or money coming here…read more As a Miami native, I was genuinely disappointed by both the food and the level of service. Unfortunately, neither lived up to expectations. We started with the "jumbo" wings, which were anything but jumbo. We received only flats, and they were some of the smallest wings I've ever been served. After bringing this to the staff's attention, we were told the manager would take 50% off the order. However, when the bill arrived, we were informed that the manager had already left and the discount could no longer be honored. Instead, we were given only the $4 happy hour discount, despite being promised otherwise. For our entrées, we ordered the brisket sandwich and the half chicken. Neither was worth ordering. The chicken lacked the crispy texture it was advertised to have, and the brisket was bland and without flavor. The sandwich was also supposed to come with truffle fries, but instead we were served cold, plain fries. After mentioning it, the solution was to bring us a side of truffle oil and Parmesan cheese and ask us to mix it ourselves. The service was equally disappointing. We asked our server twice for drink refills, but she never brought them. We eventually had to flag down another server just to get our beverages refilled. Overall, this was a frustrating dining experience from start to finish. Between the poor-quality food, unfulfilled promises regarding the bill, and inattentive service, this restaurant fell well below the standard I would expect from a Miami establishment. I rarely leave negative reviews, but this experience deserves one. I sincerely hope management addresses these issues because the current level of food quality and customer service is simply unacceptable. and quality is embarrassing for miami.

This was our second time dining here; the first time being shortly after they opened. The restaurant is really beautiful inside with accents of green and gold and white. Outdoors, there's plenty of table space, a bar, and a stage for live music. It looked like it has been expanded since my first time there. I'm glad to see this restaurant doing well in Old Town Pompano. Our server was very friendly and assisted us with our questions about the menu. As we were there for brunch, we settled on fried green tomatoes Eggs Benedict, steak and eggs, and shrimp and grits. The fresh biscuits sounded so good that we ordered them. We should have asked for them to come out early, so we could enjoy them while we were waiting. However, we took them home and enjoyed them the next day. We also made the mistake of ordering a side of potatoes. That was definitely not necessary because two of the entrées came with potatoes, and we had more than plenty for the table. Again, something we enjoyed the next day. We were all impressed with what we ordered. Everything came out hot and cooked just as we had asked. My shrimp and grits were absolutely delicious. I also thought it was also nice that our server asked if we wanted to take our refilled drinks to go and prepared to go cups for us. This restaurant has been consistent for us, and I definitely plan to be back. Next time, I'd like to check out their live music scene and get a table outside when the weather gets a little cooler.

We started with some cocktails; I enjoyed mine which was cognac with some fruity concoction, but my husband didn't enjoy his old fashion style drink. The food however was spectacular. We had the deviled eggs and cornbread to start, and I loved that the bread came with two different types of spreads. For entree, we did the fried chicken and the shrimp and grits, plus shared some Mac and cheese. Overall, everything was delicious, incredibly flavorful and fresh. Truly a fantastic southern meal with Afro-Caribbean influences. For dessert, we got the sweet potato pound cake and added a scoop of ice cream - delicious, served warm and not too too sweet.

On the first night, I sat at the bar and ordered a mocktail, M's Cornbread which arrived cold. The Lexington Deviled Eggs were enjoyable. For my entrée, I tried the Shrimp & Grits was good and the Overtown Orchard Smoked Chop, but the pork chop was very dry. For dessert, I ordered the Brown Butter Sweet Potato Cake, but I never received it. The bartender appeared more focused on conversations with friends than following up on my order. He eventually realized that the dessert had never come out as I was paying my bill and offered to bring it then. I asked for it to be removed from the check. He also offered to pack it to go, but at that point, I no longer wanted it. I returned the next day hoping for a better experience and a chance to try the dessert. While waiting, I observed chicken being prepared ahead of time and saw staff handling and tossing the chicken with their bare hands, which concerned me from a food-handling standpoint. We ordered the jerk chicken, and yardbird which was dry, and arrived cold and hard. The biscuits were also hard and dry. A second batch was brought out, but unfortunately, those were hard as well. Most concerning, after eating there, I got stomach cramps and diarrhea. I cannot say with certainty what caused it, but given the food quality and what I personally observed during preparation, the experience left me very concerned. I really wanted to enjoy Red Rooster because of its reputation and the significance of the restaurant in Overtown, but both the service and food quality fell far below my expectations. I hope the restaurant's leadership follows through on making meaningful changes and that future guests have a much better experience.
