Golden Corral Buffet & Grill - Buffet restaurant in Effingham - 1102 Ave of Mid-America, USA

We have stopped at this location for years. It used to be a Ryan's. We were pleasantly surprised when we stopped and it was Golden Corral. The interior is clean and beautifully updated. The food was so much better than before. Looking forward to our next Effingham trip so we can eat here!!!

Top notch buffet. This is the best Golden Corral I have ever dined at. The staff are all polite and helpful except for one Millennial cashier, but that's not negative enough to deduct any stars from my rating. The place is clean and the atmosphere is pleasant. Tom the manager is responsive and informative. I like the Effingham, Illinois Golden Corral so much that I eat here at least thrice a week.

My fiancé asked a waitress for some silverware and she "went to go get it" 🤣we could see her about 15 feet away standing in a door way on her phone for a while so I went and found another waitress and she promptly got us silverware. Other than that, the food was pretty typical for Golden Corral. Good, but it wasn't really hot. It wasn't bland or cold either, so in my opinion it wasn't a bad visit to Golden Corral.

I hadn't seen it in NYC. So, when we see the sign Golden Coral, while driving on the highway, we go there unconditionally. This is a good value-for-money american style buffet restaurant.

Food was great. Fish was cooked perfectly, shrimp was crispy and the porksteak was amazing. If you leave hungry, that's on you.

We went for family brunch. Everything was delicious. (I recommend the omelet station 😋) Teri, our server, was an absolute delight! If you get a table in her section, you're bound to have a wonderful time!

Me and my kids went there in 10-29 at about 4 pm. The food was crusty and looked like it had been sitting for a while. It was extremely dirty. It also wasn't very busy to be a Sunday. I went to the bathroom, and it was a mess. The toilet was even stained as if they didn't use cleaning products. I've got to say the workers seemed extremely busy, but nothing was getting done. I had to go ask twice for a refill. The spaghetti sauce tasted slightly expired. It was just such a mess. The door greater was really nice, though.

Great friendly atmosphere. There’s no waiting and there’s tons of delicious food to choose from. Thank you for always being quick, friendly, and clean!
