I went with my friends and we all over ate was about to bust lol. We paid 350 dollars, outrageous. My friend Mark ate spaghetti and then a strawberry fell on his plate out of nowhere. He then died cause he ate some bad meatloaf. My friend Kyle got the fried okra and some seaman looking substance came out of it, weird. We ate 60 plates in total and all got food poisoning. The PP was great though, It was yummy in my tummy. I ate ham that was sitting there for about 6 or 7 hours probably but I don't know. At the end we all did cheers with ice cream. After we went to a tunnel outside and we saw a homeless guy or a alien. I think it was a alien. I went home and played steal a brainrot after, then took the most monstrous dookie ever. 10/10 would come back.

Really awesome presentation here soon as I walked in and noticed the entire restaurant and kitchen and especially the food bars!! Everything smelled delicious and look very freshly-made! The manager was more than polite and generous with the greeting as we walked in and we felt right at home! I gave him a heads-up about my review and he was more than happy to let me snap a few flicks so you guys enjoy! I recommend everyone to bring your family and friends and come enjoy some good food this is like your Grandma's kitchen! Presentation was through the roof everything was super clean nicely neat and organized and almost look like it was untouched! Probably the most cleanest kitchen in presentation I've ever seen so far!!

I am so happy I decided to come in and eat dinner here, Everything was delicious and cooked perfectly, The Manager and Staff are super Friendly and very attentive, Excellent Customer Service. The restaurant was very Clean, the price is very reasonable, You really get a lot of food and variety of food items for the price. When you go to a fast food you pay a lot and do not get the quantity and quality of all the different food choices. I Highly Recommend this Golden Corral and will definitely be coming back!

Food was good. There is usually something for everyone. 4 adults just under 100.00 with drinks. Best part is all you can eat steak cooked to order. Not the best cuts of meat. Some steaks are more fatty or have gristle but juicy and flavorful. Over all worth it. Good service, attentive staff.

It's been almost a couple of years since we've been to this location. They have really improved its food quality; and service now has a smile. If I had any critiques about the food, I would say the baked, chipotle chicken is slightly undercooked and the chocolate cakes are dry. Other than that, we found the visit to be delicious and delightful! :)

Golden Corral in Lake Elsinore has the best atmosphere. No loud music. JP is the best Manger we've ever seen. My wife and I we Follow him due to the positive atmosphere he creates. He allows us to feel like family. Food is very delicious and we aren't crowed either. We also get our money's worth.
