Great service and variety of food! Food was very good too! The Golden Corral is easy to find. Lots of parking and they are near the Comfort Inn and Best Western on I Drive. Lots of food for the money!

This place can be summed up in those words, it's not bad. Problem is, nothing's that good either, very average place to dine. Looks nothing like it does in the commercials. Toilets were very clean. I have a question about cubicles in American restrooms, why are the gaps so big in the doors people could actually watch you? Value for... More

If you want a place to go with a huge amount of variety, then this is the place to go. Food is of very good quality. There is plenty to choose from. You can have as much or as little as you want. There is a chocolate fountain there and candy floss for the children. Breakfast is fantastic. I would... More

Stopped yesterday for dinner after a day at Disney. Not crowded but it was Tuesday and school is still in session so hoards of tourists aren't around. Restaurant is a bit dark and showing wear and lack of maintenance -- dirty carpets and such. Staff was great, very friendly and efficient. Food was typical Golden Corral. Nothing to write home...

If you need one big meal a day while visiting theme parks this is ok. Very busy - if you can hold out until 7-8ish/dark the crowd thins out. Food is decent/avg for the chain. The flooring, seating and bathrooms show the wear and tear of heavy crowds.

We are usually great fans of Golden Corral and have eaten in them all over Florida. We have also eaten in the International Drive one many times but will not be back to it. The first thing was that the price was higher than the one we had been to in Port Orange. The second thing was that they didn't... More

I am a big fan of Golden Corral. I would take Golden Corral over any other buffet style restaurants any day. The service was alright, however some of the foods, like the macaroni cheese, was not at its best like the one I experience in Winder, GA. I would still return whenever I am in Orlando, Florida again.

We went here once whilst on holiday. Its a good price for children but not as good for adults as does not include a drink. The food is good though. The children love getting what they want as its buffet style. I think the decor was a little basic but it did the job of feeding a hungry family quickly... More

We decided to try this place due to the overwhelming advertising. Very large assortment of buffet items. I tried chicken wings, pot roast, steak, shrimp, assorted fixings. If you would have blindfolded ,me I probably wouldn't be able to tell you what I was eating. Dirty cutlery, plastic plates that normally would be thrown out after a few uses, banged... More
