    As a Southern girl through and through, I have never seen that type of chess pie before. It is normally light colored and very, very rich and sweet. We just ate at a Golden Corral about 3 hours ago. 😂

    We don’t do buffets. The last time we ate at a Golden Corral, there was a girl (maybe 11-12 yo) going around sampling food with the serving spoon and then placing the spoon back in the food!🤮
    I did report it to our server.

    We hope you all enjoyed your visit at Golden Corral. We always go to the one in Sevierville and we really enjoy it.
    I (sk) have a free meal from Golden Corral so we will probably go this weekend. It is a free meal because of my birthday 😊.
    I think the chicken is probably as good as any restaurant chicken in the Smoky Mountain area the fried chicken anyway. The meatloaf at the Sevierville location is really good. It did look a little slow on the day you all ate there so the food was probably sitting out a little longer maybe.
    I have enjoyed the Chess Pie or chocolate pie it is very sweet. I can’t eat a lot of it.
    Veronica really likes sweet potatoes/yams so Dawn Veronica would like the same items you ate.
    We are looking forward to your next big adventure.

    We are not a fan of Buffet unless you are the very first persons there... do not like the idea of everyone touching the serving utensils , people coughing or sneezing or licking their fingers in line... but we thank you guys for doing that review and showing us what was good and not so good... thanks for taking us along with you.... GOD BLESS

    My absolute favorite place! The family loves it. We like to go before or after Dollywood as it saves money because the park is so expensive.
    Consider that cost too - for that same meal with salad, main, and dessert you could easily pay double in town and not have as much selection.
    Timing at buffets is key too. Low crowds like that unfortunately they don't turn the food over as much. Might be busier on the weekend, but the food will be plentiful and fresh.

    Hi guys
    We have one here in west palm fl. Few min from where I live. We go once in a while. They have gotten pricy I agree with Will I do love the pot roast, meat loaf n they usually have great sweet tea. I also like the vegetables I usually get a plate of that first. Also the banana pudding is good

    @pamgraham4689 7 днів тому

    I have been to GC in several places, but, My OCD got the best of me knowing I had to handle utensils after everyone else! I just can't do that!! I've seen kids sneezing/coughing around the food, and handling fried chicken until they chose which one they wanted. Also with my own eyes seen Parents send their kids to get them certain items and they handled with their hands...Since Covid hit it has been a complete NO for ME.
    I would like to know the location of this one you guys visited. We visit PF quite often and my boyfriend loves GC! I notice the cleanliness in this one and would recommend this one to him... Last one I was in, I had him dip for me..
