Golden Corral Buffet & Grill

Horrible...
never seen a Golden Corral such a mess and low selection.
The food that was put out was all dry.
The salad bar had rotten food.
The staff at the front was rude.
This is unacceptable for a meal that ran us 71.00 for a family of three.
The restrooms were all clogged and that side (left) smelled like bathroom even by the food.
Never at the Tyler tx location have we experienced anything like this***Our server was nice though

This Golden Coral restuarant is unsanitary and disgusting! The roof and cieling show large stains from repeated wet spots and the walls appear to be melting from the dampness and mold that's beneath them...you can actually smell it! The tables, chairs and even the condiments and napkin dispenser were wiped...
but not clean, with a greasy film on them.
Though we arrived within an hour of opening, the meatloaf was dried out and hard, there was some tasteless pot roast and 4 pieces of old chicken brought out after asking and waiting for fresh food to replace the empty dried up tins.
The salad bar was just as bad with wilted lettuce, no spinach or other leaf veggie choices, no potatoe, tuna or seafood salad choices and what they offered was not fresh.
They didn't even have anyone attending to the salad bar at all, so there were drips and spills all around and empty containers on the salad bar.
No one was available in sight for help but as I attempted to locate the manager I realized how dirty the floors behind the buffet tables were and how the kitchen area was even worse with food everywhere! The manager was very dismissive at first but then just wanted to quietly refund my money when I pointed out the fact that I'm sure the health dept would be interested in the condition if this place! Don't eat here if you value your health!

GC, is far being the one it used to be 20 years behind.
Food is tasteless not to mention Iced Tea! Ugh! Disgusting 🫣 It doesn't even taste like anything, they really need to work on that or to change suppliers because it's horrible! I'm sorry I used to love it , now I don't know what to say! I went there due to an invitation but it was outrageously unpleasant. I think it's going to be a while for me to visit there until I hear otherwise from a friend or someone I have a good opinion of food knowledge 🤔 I'm sorry but from 1-10 I would give a 2...
too too bad tasting experience, please somebody work on food quality or fire the actual chefs 👨‍🍳...
