Golden Corral Buffet & Grill

"My Church Members and I were invited by another Church Family as a guest . Also, both congregations were very pleased with the Fast service and a clean atmosphere. Also, the staff at the Restaurant we all enjoyed dinning in with other familymembers and friends."

"This is the best of the three locations in San Antonio. It's clean and the food is fresher due to high volume of customers at peak times. They have better item availability than the other locations. The cooked to order steaks are good. Very crowded seated and not enough parking are the biggest issues."

"sorry, dident take the best of pictures. I was enjoying my food. the waitress was my only problem with my stay, I run into alot of good servers and then you run into ones who just don't care, the young lady that was waiting on me and my wife, food was hot and delicious. restaurant looked more open and alot more light. I paid 17.99 each"

"Food is good. Great selection but you must arrive at least two hours before since food and desert tables start getting picked up one hour before closing time ."

"Very few restaurants in San Antonio were open on Thanksgiving 2022 besides hotel buffets. Even one popular restaurant on a Google search claiming to be open on Thanksgiving was not, which I verified twice. (I think a previous Thanksgiving 2021 review remained on their website. Be sure to call to verify any holiday opening.) This Golden Corral is located on Loop 410 near the Summit Parkway exit, not far from Walmart and just south of Sam's Club, on the frontage road. As expected, the line at the front door at 1:00 PM was lonnnng. All parking spaces, including 4 handicap spaces, were full, because of this special holiday! Since I'm familiar with Sam's Club, I let my family out and parked in the Sam's Club parking lot. Normally, parking would not have been an issue. The line outside the entrance was slow at first, but picked up pace. It took about 35 minutes to transverse to the cashier to pay for our holiday meals. [Good news: my wife and I didn't have to ask for senior discounts for our meals. Bad news: we didn't have to ask.] Golden Corral was well prepared for a large, Thanksgiving 2022 crowd. Terrific service on both sides of the buffet, there were many options from multiple buffet lines. For my part, I started by building, and actually eating, a healthy green salad to balance some less healthy treats. Then, I chose some traditional Thanksgiving dishes, like a slice of tender turkey breast and cornbread, green beans, and for us southerners, fried okra. I also chose a slice of ham and a generous portion of beef brisket. Known for their carrot cake, I chose a slice for dessert, though I'm usually a chocolate lover; the carrot cake was a good choice. Again, service was great, particularly in spite of hundreds of patrons. Not exaggerating too much, I remarked to one hostess that by the end of the day, Golden Corral will have fed the equivalent of a small town. At no time did I hear a groan by any employee because of the throngs of diners. Our server in our section, wearing her own "turkey apron," checked on us, as well as other tables, several times. BTW, servers and other employees at Golden Corral can accept tips, and they were well-deserving today. One last thing. I noticed a family paused before eating to pray and give thanks to the One who provided the first American Thanksgiving. Wonderful!"
