one of the better golden corral buffets i have ever been too!. Very clean and delicious. Everything is very fresh. Service was great and they were on top of making sure everything was super fresh

Overall good experience. The lady gave me the wrong drink on a refill, but that's nothing! They charge more at night and on weekends so be prepared. No matter how much you can eat, you will not put in a dent in their business. It's really UNLIMITED food!! The ice cream was the only thing I couldn't finish.. it just had no taste to it. Everything else was pretty good! My only regret is that I couldn't try everything!

My wife's 2nd plate!!

Think this is the type of place, that it depends on the time you go. I think weekends are the best. They get five stars Food it great Desserts are fantastic Great service Clean! Good price for a buffet.

So......every item we wanted they were conviently not selling anymore....there were items not even out bit had a lable. Many things lacked flavor. Or way over cooked. Definatly not worth the almost 60.00 we spent. Not including the tip. If Rays food court was open we wohld have went there. This will be our last visit to Golden cor- nasty!!!! Not worth $$$$$$they charge... id rather eat mc donalds. The slice of pie i had was good...for a frozen pie. The best thing .Sold out of prime rib its only 5pm.. seriouly...then brisket...then pizza. Thenn.... other items... unimpressed,not happy about spending 2 tanks of gas to take my family out for Easter dinner. I dont mind spending the money if it is worth it.. this ... is not. My 16 year old can vook better and thats not sayi g much. I can not believe you are open for a holiday and didnot order the propper menue items ordered. I must say although i didnot try it the salad bar area looked fresh and clean, there wete no ribs!! Just apawld...Not serving what is promosed is just nerve racking..

Doesn't wash the plates and utensils well there were bits of food still on the utensil. Horrible sanitation needs to be supervised more.

I generally go to a Golden Coral expecting edible food on the pricier side.

We have been to Tsubaki probably 5 times and we have loved it each time. The food has always been…read moregreat on the dine in side we haven't tried the hibachi side yet but we will. The sushi is always fresh and not fishy, soft shell crab is never pungent and always fresh tasting! Bento boxes are a great deal, the noodles are really good from the side dish noodles to the udon! The drinks have always been cold and tasty especially the last one I got which was the Scorpion Bolw! It was huge and very tasty, even comes out on fire! The service is usually pretty good but sometimes the waitresses disappear for a while but everyone there is always willing to help. The building is definitely a bit older and we'll kept inside, tables are clean and covered with fresh paper between guests, the sushi bar is nice with no weird bar smells and the bathrooms have been decent. We will continue to go to Tsubaki as it has become one of our favs here in Lufkin.

I decided to give this place a try while I was at an all time high with one of my sushi craving…read morefits! I was in Lufkin and said why not give this place a try. It's Friday , I'm off, and I was feeling adventurous!! Well, I popped in at 2:30 in the afternoon, and it was pretty quiet, with only myself and two others there, which would have given me cause to pause had this been a Houston Japanese bar, but this IS Lufkin yall, so I wasn't gonna jump to conclusions regarding the sparseness of patrons. I went straight to the bar and started trying to place my order. Unfortunate for me it was a very young, and brand new waitress helping me who had ZERO familiarity with anything on the nigiri menu , which is what I wanted, nor did she even know what nigiri meant as opposed to sashimi or maki rolls and I had to explain to her what a hot saki was when trying to order my drink.. ( bummer) But I was patient with her and she was trying , and was overall a sweet girl, so I just pushed through.. At any rate, the food finally was prepared by the sushi chef who was there behind the bar, who was not very friendly considering he was not busy at all and I was the only person sitting at the bar, but to his credit he wasn't rude either, and he did manage a smile my way. The sushi was very average , but it was edible and overall fresh, not fishy or blah, which I was happy at least for that , however there were no premium selections of fish available, ie; blue fin tuna, fatty tuna, king salmon, or uni options.. But I won't be too hard on them because I'm pretty sure they get more requests for there cooked options from the kitchen , which were endless by the way, and their selection of maki rolls, more than anything else, making there nigiri options an outlier. So I gave 3 out of five stars..

The entrees had a good flavor but everything was so greasy. I have never had so much grease in my…read morefood in all my life. Especially the egg rolls. They were literally solid grease. I had to throw them away. Too expensive to just have to throw them away, but I just couldn't stomach it. They had a good flavor, but I couldn't take the grease. Also, their seafood dish that was shrimp and scallops -- the scallops they show are in photos are the pretty sea scallops, but the scallops in this dish were so small, I couldn't even find them at first. I didn't know where they were. It was really misleading and very pricey to only get little tiny bay scallops that were smaller than pearl onions. I won't go back there.

It's been a while since my previous review, unfortunately the food hasn't gotten any better. Pan…read moreafter pan of pitiful offerings, every chicken dish was dry and stringy. The obviously frozen shrimp were overcooked to the point of chewiness. What little bit of meat in the entrees, whether it was chicken, shrimp, or beef, was crowded out by the vegetables. Even the battered and fried chicken pieces for sweet and sour chicken were dried out, and the sauce was a strange thick mess with very little flavor. I hoped the egg rolls would be the saving grace, because how hard would it be to mess up egg rolls? It turns out that it was pretty effortless to make egg rolls that suck, the wrappers weren't crispy, but the cabbage was under-cooked so it still had a bit of a bite, and again, didn't really have sweet and sour sauce, so I had to load up on soy sauce for the egg rolls. The service was- meh. I got one refill and two table visits while I was there, even tho there was only one other table with diners. All-in-all I'm pretty disgusted with what I got, it wasn't worth half of what ended up being $15 after the tip. I don't splurge very often, and certainly wish I could rewind and make another choice, but at least going forward I know I won't be returning to Chen's!
