Thank you to HelloFresh for sponsoring this video. The Golden Coral is one of America's most iconic buffet. Known for their crispy juicy fried chicken and fried shrimp, made to order steaks hot off the grill, and loads and loads of salads and desserts, this is the first buffet experience for many!

It turns out that none of my friends, nor myself for that matter, has ever visited a Golden Corral before. Well, that is about to change and we'll put this iconic restaurant to the test. Is the fried chicken and fried shrimp really that good? Should we avoid the pot roast as some reviewers have suggested? I intend to find out...the only way I know how. Thank you for joining me!

    I admire any man who delays dessert to make room for a stuffed baked potato. Way to go Tim!

    Hihi Tim! Hihi Everyone! As always, Tim is the most kind food reviewer!
  • @aia1229
    I loved hearing the cook call the buffet a smorgasbord. That's what we called it growing up. Great review Tim!

    i havn't been to Goden Corrall since i was a kid, i used to go to old country buffet with my grand parents almost every weekend...i remember when i was about 11(2007), we got up super early and went to target and my grandma bought me and my brother and sister a Nintendo Wii, the last one in stock, then we went to the buffet...it was a great day

    I feel like American viewers will never understand the whimsy of the Golden Corral.. Here in Canada we just have nothing to compare to such a well priced, bountiful, gem! When I get my license I can SO see myself taking a page from your book and making a journey over the boarder to try for myself!! 😂🙌💕

    Before the Pandemic, we went for the senior early-bird special. Just the fried chicken and salad bar. So good. Golden Corral never gets the credit that it deserves.

    It's always heartwarming to see you enjoying a meal with family & friends:)
  • Hello Tim And Friend's . I and family love to eat at Golden Corral . I'm glad all of you enjoy eating your food . It's hard to choose what to eat . There is so much food . Thanks for sharing your experience . You And Friends . Have A Wonderful Day.😊
  • I was in a GC only once in my life. It was in Orlando and children were running about putting their hands into the food. It disgusted me so much I didn’t not eat anything and did not return. I must admit that your review provided a different experience. The pot roast and fried chicken and baked potatoes looked pretty good. Thank you for sharing and like some others I was pleased you got to try different potato dishes!
  • I, haven't been to Golden Corral in years - but I'm, sure is heck is going back 🥹🥰🤤. Thank you Tim 🤩!

  • @shereeloft80
    Love your food excursions! Such variety and great feedback ❤
  • I'm always happy to see a new Tim Lee video! I've never thought 🤔 about going to a buffet just before dinner to get the lunch price. Great idea. I can't eat much and it would be closer to a fair price.
  • @soxrox2574
    You describe the food so well Tim. Today the best was given by Tom "Who comes to Golden Corral for the Health" 🤣🤣🤣
  • I disagree about the pot roast. The pit roast with potatoes, carrots and onions in gravy is quite good if it is fresh. I don't really like the carved roast beef though -- too fatty, too tough and too dry
  • @jstephens2758
    Unfortunately, the Golden Corral in our area is smaller and offers much less. I went once and have not been back because tables were not cleared quickly or clean, and floors were slippery. Most items were low cost starchy dishes and overcooked vegetables, and when they put out a more expensive item, a few people grabbed it all and there seemed to be a required time delay before they were allowed to replenish them. Then, the same thing happened again. Also, they told people to go get a drink without telling them there was an extra charge and at that time, there was a charge for refills.

    Sunday fun day with Tim❤ Bone in catfish is the best. Thank you for another awesome video with family and friends.
  • @DavidSriracha
    Thank you for taking us along Tim 😄I have to admit, our last visit to the Orlando location was nothing like the one you experienced. The place you visited looked so much cleaner and offered so much more! I still remember my first time going to Golden Corral, back when it was only $9.99 😅Tom had me cracking up with "Who comes to Golden Corral for the health?" 😂
