Golden Corral Buffet & Grill

First and foremost we have been loyal customers to Golden Corral
Mt Airy for many years. Over the last 6 months the buffet has continuously declined. Our last 4 trips there May 2025 the food on the buffet was cold, left over items from the day before on the lunch buffet are not heated properly, chicken is hard as a rock and lukewarm at best, burned meat loaf, left over burgers that with cold center. Fruits on salad bar were mushy and not fresh. We finally had enough and asked for the manager, before I finished talking to the manager a lady walked up and voiced the same concerns and complaints. We heard multiple customers complaining. We will not return until this issue is fixed!!
Our server was absolutely wonderful and apologized multiple times, it’s not her fault the restaurant is failing now. Also noticed they currently have 90 health score that’s the bottom of the A rating. It should be lower with old cold food!! Someone will get sick!

Went around 7 so maybe that's why the food was pretty bad. The steak was good but the fried chicken was extremely dry and the desserts were like bricks.

amber ,our waitress ,treated us like kings and queens

Love the BBQ and salad bar.

Great food and great meats. Good environment too but very busy after church sundays

Asked for steak she gave me the smallest piece possible so I asked for a second piece and she said she’d get fired if she gave me more than one🤣 it was maybe a 2oz piece. So weird. And I was there celebrating Mother’s Day for myself and my mom.

Good meal

the meal wasn't anything exceptional most of the good food from the buffet was gone with mostly scraps left the server was very attentive though the atmosphere was just bland

Awesome food
Awesome prices
Awesome selection of foods on buffet 😋

Excellent experience here, as usual. We try to sit in Jamie’s section because he is so attentive. This is our go-to Saturday morning breakfast place.

The one in Mt.Airy, NC. over priced and very little food on plates. You will leave hungry

Cold food. Old food. Didn't even know we had a waitress. Dirty plates stacked up on the table, empty drink cups. 2 weeks have passed. I thought I'd give them another chance. Still cold food. What little bit of food that is out has been out all day. Most pans are empty. Ice cream machine is still broke. Still have no idea where a waitress is. Good luck everyone

Great atmosphere, clean, food was great, staff was friendly. We really enjoyed our meals!

I do have one suggestion. They do need to buy a better quality of steak. You need a electric saw to cut it

Plates need to be in a warming station, food gets cold before eating, employees should be required to wear non sented personal hygiene, I want to smell good food NOT overly perfumed products
