It was clean, the staff were quick to pick up finished plates, and I left uncomfortably full. It's exactly as advertised, nothing more nothing less. Good deal for what you pay, no one judged me for eating 19 cream puffs. read more

Got food poisoning after eating the chicken food was taken in a contaminated food at Golden Corral on 12 th street do not eat there! read more

See all

Always liked Golden Corral but then covid came and their business slowed down. But after they came back swinging the food is a lot better and really like the place steak s are really tasty and their seafood salad is the bomb. And they have really good deserts are great. read more

My wife, sister and I went here for Thanksgiving dinner. The line to get in was just out the door, but it went pretty quickly, and we got a table. Our server, Angel, was true to her name- very attentive even though she had quite a few tables from what I saw. She was always checking our drinks and taking our plates AND she was very nice and was a joy to have her with us. The food was quite good, the turkey was great, and the ham was also good. This is the first time in almost 40 years that we haven't had dinner at home, and we were skeptical, and we were pleasantly surprised with our choice. This is a big holiday for us, and Golden Corral came through. Who knows we may make this our new tradition it was that good. Thanks again to Angel and the rest of the staff for this great holiday experience. read more

I would give a 0 star if I could. We walked in and there were no clean tables so we started wiping one down when a server said, "Don't do that!" And then basically told us to get out of the way while we wait for her to do it. She took another couple minutes before she came over and did it so we just stood there really awkwardly for a while. My moms Diet Coke literally tasted like water. So did the Mac and cheese. The first three plates I grabbed for the buffet were dirty. The food that they have is disgusting. A lot of the buffet is empty. Even basic things like rice or pizza are boarder-line inedible. I don't think I finished a single thing I put on my plate. Also, just went into the bathroom and there was something brown on the floor.... See photo below. Anyway. Terrible food. Terrible service. Very dirty. read more

Golden Corral Buffet & Grill - a broken toilet - Buffets Near Me - Ogden, Utah

The worst thing, my husband and I came to eat for my birthday and the food was terrible, super cold, we complained at the place and they did nothing apart from the water tasting horrible. I will not return to this place again. read more

Food was terrible. Just absolutely terrible- and I am not a picky person. Everything tasted like it was from a can. Even the steak tasted oddly flavored like it was fake. I loved this place when I was a kid in 2006ish, clearly the price has gone up and the food quality way down. I would rather eat school lunch. It was pricey too. Go to Chuck A Rama. read more

Besides the hostile, not so friendly service (besides our waitress who was fine) dirty dishes, and flavorless food. FLIES ‍ with 0 accommodations. No one in my party wanted to eat & completely lost our appetite. read more

Golden Corral Buffet & Grill - Fly in the Ham - Buffets Near Me - Ogden, Utah

Was the best ever! Took our Littles and they loved the icees, pizza and the cotton candy. The bathrooms were the best I ever seen this one in odgen Stench not there anymore. Steak hubby not complained. The Manager gave me a dr.pepper with ice and one without. So kind. Kind to my Littles and our . Crab salad and the fried were great. Liked the fried shrimp the best! I even liked the cotton candy too. And I'm the adult. Haha read more

My husband and I went to Golden Corral last night before going to the movies. We had not been there in a few months. Now I remember why we haven't been back. For the two of us, the price was just shy of $40. Kinda pricey for what we got. Options are dwindling also. And all these folks with kids, had they been at Applebees or even Dennys, their children would not be allowed to run wild. We used to go to buffet places cause it was easy and inexpensive. Not anymore. I will not be dining at Golden Corral in the future. Maybe it's worth the price to those with small children .. Maybe if they had an area for people not bringing children... read more

My husband and i just came back from eating there and, so disgusting. What is wrong with the cooks, the food taste like it's been sitting for a long time. That place needs to close down. Even with different food to choose from everything is sooooo gross. We will never eat there again. Call the health department. Over priced food that is horrible, nasty, puke. Save your hard-earned money and don't eat at the golden corral. Big shame on the company. read more

Best buffet nearest to me! Lots of delicious food. Servers are gracious and all employees are considerate. I always go as close to the beginning of lunch service. People that complain should learn to cook! Will fix your problems. Covid has prevented me from eating out of common sense. Hopefully USA can figure this pandemic problem soon so I can return. read more

Why for the love of God, why would you eat here? Crappy food, crappy service, just plain crappy. I can't even drive by the place without my stomach clenching. The only conceivable reason I can think of for eating here is that you can eat a mountain of garbage for a relatively low price. The ambiance is something like you would expect at Walmart. Similar clientele as well... read more

Okay food I'm only yelping because if you go request where Benji is serving. He is a great server! I always give him a huge tip. Update: Since I quit smoking I realized that the food here is yucky and Benji is no longer working there :(. read more

Im with the majority, my wife used to go here as a child and I hope it was better then. The place looked dirty and at 7:30 it looked as if the food was still out from lunch. Will not be back... I wish I would have checked yelp prior to walking through the door. read more

We don't come here often, as we don't go to buffets very much. Took my dad here for breakfast on a Sat morning. Place had quite a few people. There were lots of choices to eat. They could make eggs your way, omelet your way, and various buffet choices. Now you had choices of anything breakfast. bacon, sausage links, patties, ham, etc etc. Different hash brown choices, and various other items, such as corn beef and hash. They also had a cook making items to put on your plate straight from the grill. The food wasn't bad, but it wasn't great either. Mass cooking buffet leaves out a lot of quality. Don't expect super great tasting food, some of it was bland, some is great. And it is hit or miss, one pan of hash browns may be lacking the salt and butter, and the next could be exactly how you make it at home. Service was great, she kept the drinks filled and plates taken care of. read more

Me and my girlfriend ate here this place was just not a great place to eat most of the food was stale and it did not taste good whatsoever half the food wasn't even there and it just didn't have a good atmosphere to it it wasn't a good place to eat I don't think I will be going back there read more

I had a pleasant experience at GC. I sampled the fried shrimp, hush puppies, fried fish, pizza, pot roast, fried okra, fried chicken and taco bar. A fresh batch of chicken tenders had just come out of the kitchen - they were delicious. I made the mistake of filling up on everything else and was too full for dessert. The chocolate fountain where you could dip strawberries looked good but I didn't try it on this trip. I also didn't make it to the salad bar. The staff was attentive, taking away plates and asking if everything was ok. read more

Did not have a mask. Was willing to retrieve one from the car. A young man who worked there said I could buy one from him for a dollar. I told him no and he got very rude and asked myself and my 2 guests to leave. Golden Corral says they do not sell masks. This employee or manager which ever he is needs to be fired for taking advantage of the customers. read more

This place is awesome! I don't know what the deal is with all these haters on here, i think only the people who didn't like it come on here to review. I went with my wife and kids tonight and it was so fun with tons of delicious food choices. Ask these people complaining about the waiter not being right on top of refilling their drink? Go to freaking Olive Garden! This is a buffet and the waiters are occupied trying to clean up all your dirty plates your piling up. Food is good and service is exactly what it should be for a buffet. Go. You will have a good time. read more

I have been to Golden Corrals in a few states and they all have made amendments to me using my birthday coupon by myself except this one on Washington in Ogden. This manager would not budge, from the get-go almost before I asked the answer was "No". What would it have hurt to work with me and offer a discount or something?? On a positive note, the cashiers were nice, the place looked clean, the food smelled good, the parking lot was clean. It is a shame that I was made to feel bad for trying to use my birthday coupon. read more

I usually try to give the benefit of the doubt to establishments. I really do. My kids wanted pizza. We wanted real food so we stopped at Golden Corral. There were two pieces of pizza on the bar. Both were burned and looked they they had been dropped. I chose the one less burned thinking I could get the kids by until more came out. (Who puts food out looking that way?)It took forever before more came out. My kids were already full on other items which I'm fine with that outcome for their nutritional intake, but it's ridiculous they weren't replenishing the buffet. They were out of the bourbon chicken, as well. I waited quite a while and we were about to leave when it finally came out. I loved the potato chips they made. Those we great. I would have taken a bag home with me if they had them for sale. Then, my three year old needed to go to the bathroom. I was first surprised when I walked in because it smelled really good. I looked in one handicap stall and there was human waste on the seat so we went into the other. That's when I noticed dried human waste on that seat, as well, after I had sat my daughter on it. (Fortunately, I didn't sit her in it.) I could see smear marks over it like someone wiped it to say they tried to do their job. Still there. Very obviously. I felt disgusted when I left and watch my daughter closely to make sure she didn't touch anything. I think it's safe to say this restaurant may need new management. read more

Golden Corral Buffet & Grill - Pizza - Buffets Near Me - Ogden, Utah

Went today for lunch. Haven't been there in years. The place is falling apart, there's tape holding the edge of the carpet down. It's dingy in there and not very clean. Most of all the food is terrible. It's no better than meals on wheels! Which is crap. read more

The last time I stepped into a Golden Corral was 1996, in Spokane, WA. Last week when the fam and I went to the Golden Corral on Washington after a pee-wee baseball game, I thought the experience would match the one from twenty years ago. It fell far, far short. First off, the piped in music was dreadful. Standing in line to pay for our food, my wife leaned over to me to whisper that it was the "most wrist slashing effing music" she'd ever heard. I concur. It was like badly done New Age nonsense, all flutes, synthesizers, and mermaid tears. While eating, my thirteen year old daughter, not having heard my wife's comment, loudly declared that the CD case for this music probably featured a sea turtle swimming through the Cosmos towards Saturn. Truly, it was that awful. The food was some hits and mostly misses. The salad bar was a salad bar. Reliable. The ribs were well done. Fall off the bone tender and juicy. The taco bar remained picked over and empty the entire time we were there. The fish station, was it called Lighthouse Bay?, didn't offer up any tasty spoils except, perhaps, the fried popcorn shrimp. But really, anyone can do those as well as GC from the frozen section at the local grocery store. The mashed potatoes and meat loaf had been sitting seemingly for hours, congealing in their own ennui. While we were eating, a sudden flood of obese humanity burst forth from one of the side rooms. Evidently, they were all listening to some kind of sales pitch scam, and were probably only there for the "free" meal at Golden Corral. I can't think of anything more sad. To have to listen to some schmarmy guy speaking over suicidal New Age muzak while trying to convince you to give him your credit card information to buy into some crappy pyramid scheme and the only thing you get out of it is middling buffet food. read more

I'm not an advocate of buffets, especially when stuffed beyond reason as I am leaving after each visit and swearing not to return, yet I return to this place almost every week. I give 4 stars for above average tasting dishes, 5 for cleanliness, 5 for attentive servers, and most of all, the manager/owner is the most involved person I have seen at any Golden Corral establishment. He is out on the floor checking dishes, chatting with customers, with employees, helping at the register, making and taking calls that I can guess only makes our experience the better. I really like this guy, and how it translates to happy servers and customers. During my 30 minute visit, he is available to catch on the floor at least 15 to 20 minutes, very attentive. I once ate buffet in Mesquite Nevada, and learned how bland food can taste when produced for the masses. I want to share how each dish, while not always perfection, tasted special and had great flavor. Did I mention the place is immaculate & clean, the glass as well as the counters, and every dish is displayed like a lot of care went into its making. If you like buffet, I highly recommend visiting this Golden Corral in Ogden. I think you may agree that all employees go above and beyond, it keeps me coming back, and preferring this location for the level of dedication of the manager. read more

Love this place, took awhile to get used to the help, but for the most part its pretty good. or consistent. Once in awhile they have their off days, not many though. Sometimes, one has to ask for them to do something, and they get put off by that, poor attitudes, take things personal when they should be considerate of poor service and being helpful. Owner cut back on steaks, quality of steaks, and Serving Shrimp, and quality of Shrimp. Thought he was going bankrupt . Some of their choices for management is off, but owner appears to be out of touch from intoxicated mood swings. Ever since Sizzler left on 12th Street, noticed the steaks and shrimp take a hit here. Kids double dip the chocolate fountains while eating from it. read more

Quality of the food was no good I was at the dessert bar and I thought I had found 801 rock inside the brownie, $60 for a family of four overpriced for bad quality food read more

Good all you can eat food and very pleasant staffing. Also a clean place. My husband and I eat here for dinner and went home very full.

Wish we had one of these locally. The food is good and fresh and nice with a lot of variety such as the taco bar, hamburger bar, and of course on the weekend the prime rib.The chocolate dessert fountain is a nice gimmic. Good food much better than the other buffets that have overcooked stuff. Reasonable price. read more

I think some of the food is not as good as it was. Service is good that darn chocolate wonderful is a joke too many kids sticking fingers in it just disgusting read more

All I can say is I will never be eating at another Golden Corral again, regardless of the location. This particular restaurant was certainly slacking when it comes to cleanliness, which is no surprise why I went home with food poisoning the very same night after eating here. The service was almost non-existent, and the reason behind the food being all you can eat is evident after the first bite. I wouldn't feed this trash to a dog. read more

This was the worst service I've ever had. Granted I know it's mainly a serve yourself place but the "waitress" who checked in on us was less than satisfactory. She brought my fiance a new drink the minute he finished his. I waited through out or entire meal and nothing. Not only this but every time she'd walk past she'd glare at me. Later my fiance said "you'd think that I cheated on her and left her for you." We'd never met before in our lives. I was so dissatisfied and so was my fiance we didn't even tip which is completely against my standards!! read more

Our family went in it was 11:50 AM on a Friday. There were two other patrons. I was suprsed I used to eat there a lot for lunch and it was always difficult to get food from the croups. It did not take long to figure out the issue. The food was terrible. The salad was wilted and she was cutting it while I was standing there and the new was bad. foods were not fresh tasting and poor quality. I tried to get a piece of meet cooked a the grill and they cook simply pretended to not understand what I wanted. Sad, but this restaurant just made its way to the DO Not Disturb list in my book. read more

You get a lil bit of everything. from classic American food to Mexican food. If you're on a budget & trying to feed your family than this is the place to dine at. Good food esp the dessert section - love the chocolate fountain & cotton candy. read more

I don't want to judge to harshly since it is a buffet, but the food all looks greasy like warm and like it has been sitting all day. The food also looks like it has lots of unhealthy things snuck into it. Even at the salad bar the turkey doesn't look lean. The prices are expensive to. If you want a variety of crappy food for an expensive price go here. read more

Best food n very fresh n my wife thought it was better than any restaurants we been too n we recommend this place everybody we had good time thank you n people are friendly and polite read more

Took the family there last night and every plate I grabbed was dirty. Spoons had chocolate on them still and they were all in the clean dish piles. Definitely won't go back that is disgusting. read more

Certainly not the best quality, bit it is a buffet right? I do like the large selection of food. Service is not all that great.

I've been to the layton one several times with rather great experiences. Ate here at 740pm and the food was not fresh. My meatloaf was cold as well as other dishes. Steak was not cooked the way I asked. The steak my girlfriend was served was really dark like it had been sitting for an hour. Save your money and go elsewhere. read more

The service is always good but the food is kind of hit and miss. Sometimes it's really good and fresh tasting and sometimes it's too salty and taste old. read more
