Old Country Buffet

We went in time for the Lunch price but stayed thru 5:30. All the food that I tasted was Good/​VeryGood Except the chicken soup. Blah! I tried many things, that’s what Buffet is for. Ham, roast Beef, kielbasa, chicken. All were good but Chicken was Great! My family also tried the Pork and chili and Tacos withGood reviews. Desserts were Good actually Tasted like the things they were: Carrot Cake burp, with nuts ! BAnana Pudding Real slices also! Chocolate brownie so so
Happy with all and servers were on top of it both on food lines and in dining room Give it a try $ 8.00 and a senior discount !

It was a mistake. The place was cleaner than the Sheridan Dr location. But the 3 of us were sick.

We were starving and needed food fast, so we popped in last week for the heck of it. Then after about 15 minutes I thought, why oh why did I come here… I remember ages ago when I used to go and thought it was such a good deal… now, no thanks. It feels like a cafeteria and it’s so messy. You also wonder how clean the food offerings and plates are – it’s best not to think about it too much.
On the plus side this location has a lot of room with lots of tables. The highlight of the food offerings for me was the fried chicken, which has not changed a bit in 25 years, it’s yummy but each piece was overcooked on the night we went. The baked cookies were also tasty. Going to a place like this makes you just overeat, and you know that going here too much will make you pack on the weight.
At any rate, it was an experience to go as it brought me back in time and reminded me not to go to places like these anymore.

The food was absolutely horrendous. Everything lacked flavor except the for the weird aftertaste of (as my friend put it «highly chlorined water» take that to mean what you think). And if you’re going to doubt the possibility ofme trying all the food and just assume that picked a few bad choices, there was barley anything to choose from. There were only two, very short, tables (and I mean like half the size of an average Chinese buffet table) so I tried everything that looked edible. The food also had no labels (but I guess when your options are limited to potatoes, Mac n cheese and some rice, they’re not really needed). Drink options were also very limited.
The restaurant itself could have used a cleaning, and the place wasn’t that busy so I’m sure someone could have swept up a bit and wiped a table.
The only satisfactory part of the experience was that the salad bar was fresh, and the banana pudding tasted good (though if they had screwed up the pudding I may have just cried).

I used to enjoy eating there when I was younger, so my husband and I stopped there on a whim for old times sake. AWFUL idea. We walked out.
For starters, the place reeked like old dishwater. The employee who took our money was rude. The food has obviously been sitting out for awhile and looked unappetizing. The buffet tables were a mess. I picked out some fried chicken, some roasted chicken and mashed potatoes. The fried chicken tasted burnt, I couldn’t even chew it, and the rest was just bland– I gave up. I decided to try the salad bar… It was a mess, needed cleaning, the lettuce was wilted and something that shouldn’t have been was hanging out in the spinach. Wandering over to the ice cream bar… It was disgusting and hadn’t been wiped in hours. I actually felt nauseous between the smell, the bad food and the lack of cleanliness. We just left. The only positive part of our experience was our server– a cute little girl eager to please.
Stay away. Stay far, far away.

The food here is bland, basic, and not a lot of variety. It’s what I would call the typical American style cuisine — mash potatoes, gravy, mac and cheese, roast beef, etc. The price is decent ($ 12.82 w/​o a drink, $ 15.XX w/​drink). I was pleased with the fried chicken (had to remove the skin) and the meat was juicy/​tender. Another good addition was the Molten Lava cake found at the dessert booth. However, it’s not going to be my first choice if in the mood for buffet, rather more of a convenience.

Awful! This place is disgusting! I don’t have high hopes for any buffet but this one takes the cake (which they were out of lol). They don’t refill with fresh food (a lot
of trays lay empty and filthy), many of the labels that say what everything is were mixed up… hot dogs were marked fish, grilled chicken was labeled as fried and so on. Crab cakes (at least that’s what I think it was) weren’t marked at all and were fishier than a fish tank. I’m not even exaggerating when I say that I looked into the chili kettle and it was like a congealed pile of refried beans. It was brown in color and crusted over… it seriously looked like something that should be on its way out of you, and not on its way in!!! Skip this place– I wish I had!

They used to have steak available where you get the ham and roast order. Now they bring it on the buffet but only brought once after I asked about steak. Only 5 pieces. The rest of the night I saw none. I come here for steak, salad and chocolate milk. Guess it will only be breakfast here for now on
Not worth it

My friends and I eat at the Old Country Buffet on Transit Road at least once a week. I can see they need more help. The tables were not cleaned off in a timely manner. We had 3 sets of used dishes at our table, finally someone came and took them. It was not busy. Nothing was restocked very well. I look forward to the meatloaf and I was hoping that it was going to meatloaf night. The empty pan was on the buffet for ½ hour, I kept checking, the finally restocked it with corndogs. Disgusting. There were hardly any desserts out. I like the pies the best and if you were lucky 1 piece would show up once in awhile. Really I have always enjoyed OCB but a few times they have really fell short. They have fresh real food. The salad bar is good. But they need to keep the food restocked, dishes restocked, and the tables cleaned off. They need to quit trying to change it. Steak, ham, meatloaf, turkey and all the trimmings are fine. The new stuff is never stocked either. Chicken & biscuts is far better tasting than the new chicken pot pie.

Meh not the best. I guess for Buffett standards there ok. We walked in at 317 pm on the dot and had a coupon for dinner for two they actually made us wait 13 minutes… That was upsetting the front desk customer service was an atrocity she was so rude kept half answering all of our questions. The food was mostly dry and over cooked but it’s a Buffett so my standard were not high to begin with. Over all I’m giving a two because our server was nice and that have a decent selection of foods

I love coming to Old Country Buffet, the food is good and the price is right. One thing both my Husband and I miss is the steak, you need to bring it back, that was a winner. I hated leaving with that disappointed feeling. The steak was one of the high lights of your food choices… bring it back… Please.

OK. I don’t do buffets. Once again I was coerced into coming here. Daughter and grand daughters love the place however Hubby and I did not know what to expect.
Decent. Salad bar has beets, I’m in freaking heaven! Also garbanzo’s. Good pickings for a salad if you are so inclined.
Real food. I guess I can say it was good. Not from an eating point of view, I tasted and the offering were good!
Fried chicken along with various other chicken dishes. Pizza, Mac N Cheese. Standard buffet fare. Not fantastic but not bad.
Kids loved, as well as my big kid, the dessert bar.
Will I come back… I hope not. Not because the food was bad per se but because I prefer better. Or my own cooking.

OCB in general is a godsend for hungry people. This one is my favourite because it’s airy and spacious and has a good selection. Most chains score very low for me but this is a good OCB, I recommend it. Most of the food they have here is decent, some of it is even delicious if you choose well, some of the dishes are terrible, but honestly it’s on a par with most Vegas buffets, and that says a lot. Endless drinks, endless food of 100 different varieties. What’s not to love. It’s not amazing, but it’s very good.
The worst thing about this place is the amount of food people here are throwing out. The second worst thing is all of the 300 pound people that come walking in to remind you what happens if you visit the buffet too often. The best thing is the freedom to eat whatever you like… a bit of everything and a lot of anything.
I reduced it from four stars to three because they have now started (over) charging you to get a drink. The drinks are excellent with tons of choices, but the price is silly. And OCB used to be good because it was 5 or 6 dollars. Now it’s 11 or 12. That’s too much. This is supposed to be for poor, hungry people. Get real.
