Well I thought this was a hard to rate kind o place. It's in an old school cafeteria so the dining…read morearea is either nostalgic or dreary depending on your school experience. We arrived on a Tuesday about 11:40. There was only one other customer. While we were there 4 groups of 2 did come in. I noticed most everyone else was ordering the daily specials - a beef sandwich or tenderloin sandwich. The buffet had a lot of food. Couldn't figure out the economics of so much food for so few people. There is a hot buffet that had fried chicken and 4 or 5 other entrees. The fried chicken didn't seem quite done to me, but the chef assured me it was and I was just seeing coloring from the marinade. I think the only thing on the hot buffet either of us liked were the au gratin potatoes, the was also a large salad bar and an extremely wide selection of desserts. I'd say it was ok, probably not as good as Bonnie Cafe at the airport. They do seem to do a good job of marketing and their specials must attract a lot of local interest.

Other reviews say the food is served fresh and hot and I can attest it IS HOT! Good, fast service for an affordable price. The inside is a mixture of Mongolian-style grill and buffet, but there aren't as many food options as some buffets. For example, there are two sections of desserts and a large salad section and another section with "American" food but only three hot tables of "Chinese" food. Overall clean and updated but wishing for more options.

HONEY, SUGAR, SWEETIE... vs. Hi!…read more Most of the waitresses there aren't that great, in my opinion, but I had one who was phenomenal. Her name is Miriam and I was hoping to get her the last time I went to GC. I even went to her section of the restaurant when I saw her. Unfortunately, I was approached by a different server who used one of those pet names that I strongly do not appreciate, "honey". I don't know if no one has ever told them that not everyone likes that and that it is NOT PROFESSIONAL or if they are just too lazy to do better. Miriam, however, never used such demeaning greeting. She was pleasant, polite, and professional the entire visit (my previous visit). She listened and communicated well, though English may not have been her first language. Although I really appreciated the service by the one waitress, why are waitresses needed at buffets anyway? As with fast food restaurants, customers can get and refill their own drinks, clear their tables, and get their own food, so what is the purpose of servers at buffets, besides collecting tips? Seriously. If the purpose of having servers at buffets is to give customers a nicer, slightly more upscale dining experience than that of fast food restaurants, then surely the servers should EARN those tips by providing great service, right? Otherwise they could be eliminated, with no thought, as is the trend in much of American society, due, in part, to AI and security cameras. Nonetheless, most of the food is tasty most of the time at this GC. Sometimes it is hard to get certain items, however. The availability of fresh items (like fried chicken, sweet potatoes, strawberries, or banana pudding) varies from time of day or season of the year. GC's campaign of separate pay items (lobster, cotton candy...) is just annoying in a buffet setting, especially concerning the cotton candy, which, when they had it at all, used to be included as a part of the buffet price.
