    I'm never expecting much from a Golden Corral other than I can make myself a great salad and the fried chicken is usually pretty good.
    This location though, WOW.  Went over to the steak bar and they had smoked ribs and smoked pulled pork.  Of course I'm thinking how good could either of those be from a Buffet joint?
    Well, pretty darn good.  In fact, as far as the pulled pork goes, it was incredible.  Fall off the bone tender, smoke ring, smoke taste.  3 BBQ sauces to go with it though it didn't need any sauce.  It was juicy and tender.  Incredible.  So much for the fried chicken or the delicious looking pot roast I never got to try.  I got full on the pulled pork.

    And desert?  Old fashion, just like my Grandma used to make even though it's a PITA to make fudge.  Not that crappy fudge so many places try to foist off as fudge anymore.  They also had this double chocolate cake that was incredible.

    A delicious meal with great wait service bringing refills on drinks and cleaning off the old plates.

    Wow, I know that this is a get what you pay for type place, but this trip tops it. Waitress vanished, no refills, food was less than good. Very disappointing. 8 people and over $100.00. Well at least the tip won't break me.

    Lots of quantity...quality is debatable on a lot of the items...many things come straight from a can. The salad bar is good. The steak bar is mediocre. Fried okra is terrible. Baked chicken was burnt to a crisp. Fruit was excellent. Ribs were really good. The place was extremely crowded, but not so bad you were having to wait in line. Not sure if its good enough for me to give it another try.

    2 baked potatoes and both were dark brown inside. This has happened before and we did not learn our lesson. Cold fried chicken, dry pots of soup, several empty pans and the manager's pants and shirt couldn't cover his belly! Kids running sound screaming without their parents. Won't be back.

    I am not a fan of buffets but this was very good not just in the quality of the food but also the service. A lady named Yan was the best in taking care of our tour group of 47.
