So I'm from California and the Golden corral out there is completely different than the one in Ohio, first off, their people have an actual chef that cook the steaks to perfection, in Ohio o asked for a medium well steak, the last have me a are steak the first time and a medium rare the second, like she had never cooked steak for herself and not know that with thick steak you have to split the meat in order to thoroughly cook the meat, not just give the appearance of cooked right. Secondly in Cali, they had around 15 people working the display area as well as the tables, the one in Ohio had a skeleton crew, there was 1 person for 3 sections and only 3 people for the entire restaurant tables. 1 person cooking the steaks was also cleaning stuff and going back and forth to other food areas. This place will close soon due to managerial decisions and lack of properly training their people as well as a lack of interest in hiring real talented people, the golden coals in California started hitting chefs straight out of the community college because they could cook way better than the people they had before. This was absolutely the worst experience I've had since the golden corral had been bought out and merged with the other buffet company over 10 years ago. Do way better. Even the carrot cake was horrible and the one in Cali tasted great, the one in Ohio, their icee machine didn't work for all 3 flavors, their chocolate fountain wasn't working right. Just issues everywhere. 1/10 stars. My kids love golden corral and told me they never want to go back to that one again. I have to agree.
