I went to a Golden Corral in College Station, Texas . Had a plate of refried beans, Mexican style rice and cheese enchilada casserole. Finished that up, got a plate of meatloaf , turnip greens and penne pasta. Still wasn’t full, so I got a third plate of some mashed potatoes, pinto beans and white rice, and by the time I was done with that, I was stuffed. It was all delicious. I love their variety!

Y'all should get the Pot Roast next time y'all go back, I usually make a meal out of that for the most part it's that good but then again you can't go wrong with good Pot Roast!

There was a time when GC was a decent steakhouse, competing with Ryan's in some places. Had a variety of steaks, as well as chicken, and fish. Haven't been to one in ages.

It is so interesting seeing how similar our local Golden Corral is, but with a couple of small differences. Our food quality matches up to your experience, and I'm a steak fan too. We don't have the hibachi. We get more soups and a chocolate fountain.😂 One thing I think is regional is a bit more Mexican foods like whole roasted whole fresh jalapeños, a few scratch-made salsas, flour tortillaa, tamales, fajita makin's, and chili con carne, along with the tacos. You can basically do a whole Mexican meal. Sadly, ours shut down after a massive kitchen fire last June. They are still working on the repairs. Can't wait for the Grand ReOpening! Great video. Happy Easter👍
@vafunseekers4 ай бұрын
Enjoyed reading about the similarities and differences of the Golden Corrals in Virginia and Arizona. We use to have a chocolate fountain in our Golden Corral before they remodeled. The hibachi is new as well. So I wonder if you will have a hibachi grill when your GC reopens. Hope you are having a wonderful Easter!
