This is a family friendly AYCE buffet with a salad bar and dessert station. We got there when it opened so it wasn’t too crowded yet. It’s very open with plenty of indoor seating. The staff had wonderful customer service. There’s so much variety, something for everyone. I would suggest checking out all of their offerings before choosing. I like that they have both baked potatoes and sweet potatoes. They have breakfast options as well, like pancakes and French toast. They can also make an omelette for you. My least favorite was the taco station; the meat was cold. The steak burger seemed like it had too much bread. Loved the veggie options, Bourbon Street Chicken and stir fry. There’s a large variety of desserts. Loved the banana bread! Very moist! With buffets like this, some things are a hit and some are a miss. But, overall, it’s tasty and a great value for AYCE. Come hungry!!

I've been coming to this Golden Corral locations since a little after they opened and I've never had a negative experience. The food seems well stocked and very fresh. You will find a very diverse selection of food, including, but not limited to; salad bar, taco bar, comfort food, southern food, dessert section, and an ice cream machine. You can also order of their menu if you want to buy more premium cuts of meat and non buffet items.

First time to have Yummy fried catfish. So delicious. What a WONDERFUL spread....steak, roast, good veggies, great salad. Loved everything except the desserts, which were plentiful, but not at exceptional at all.

This Golden Corral truly impressed me with its cleanliness and attention to hygiene. From the moment I walked in, I noticed how well-maintained the restaurant was. The floors were spotless, the buffet stations were neatly organized, and every serving area was regularly cleaned and restocked. The staff was constantly wiping down surfaces and ensuring food safety protocols were followed. Even the restrooms were exceptionally clean, which speaks volumes about their commitment to hygiene. It’s clear that Golden Corral in Ontario prioritizes both quality and cleanliness, making it a great place to enjoy a delicious meal with peace of mind. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a well-kept, family-friendly dining experience!

To start with I went there to attend a party. The host didn't even know about it. There was lots of food choices I didn't find it that good for the price they charge. If one wants to have all you can eat I guess it would be fine. I like a good meal this wasn't it . Not interested in going back

My Niece and I came here for Dinner after work and the Manager an Asian lady went above and beyond with a great and positive customer service and let me tell you every Golden Corral I’ve been to my experience was not pleasant. Not only was the manager good but all the staff made sure the food kept coming out fresh and tables cleaned and drinks filled . Good job 👏🏽 we will be coming back also with our entire ONT airport crew. Thanks 🙏
