Old Country Buffet

This place deserves nothing more than a one star and really not even a 1 I read all the reviews before i went and i was so not wanting to go their but it was grandsons Bday and he picked this place… First of all the Price is to high for the food quality just not right. And the Food was so so so so so so so bad ribs dry chicken dry the chicken pot pie was just all crust taco meat was so so so greasy crappy cheese mash potatoes where so sticky could hardly get them of spoon steak was so tuff would have to chew for days to swallow… im telling you the truth people this place has crappy food and the price is a rip off. cant find anything that was good abt this place other than i came in and got out of the cold. Please Believe me when i SAY this place servers the worst crappy food. Go at your own risk could become food poisning for sure. :P :P :P

I went there for dinner as I didn’t want to cook or order off a menu and have to wait for my meal. It’s fine for what it is. Staff was pleasant and the place was clean. I enjoyed the food that I selected from the buffet. Yes, it is straightforward and simple food but most people know that going into a place like this.

This place has gone downhill bland food poor employee service and run of the mill. Come on guys do with it get some new ideas

I didn’t come here for 5 star food or service. I knew before steeping through the door it wasn’t going to be like a Steak 44. If you don’t feel like cooking and don’t know what to eat, and just want food and you want somewhat of a dining experience, come here. The food is food and the service is decent. Fairly clean from what I can see. Ehh I’ll take it. Cheerio

Perfect place for Old people or no one with taste buds.

For 2 people dinner was $ 30.00 and mediocre to say the least. Seafood salad had all the seafood picked out, food looked aged. The rotisserie chicken was very dry. The desserts were old looking as well. The brownie was crunchy. The only think that seemed good was the chocolate milk. Lots of food choices. I however won’t be back. I’d rather spend my money on a good fresh meal.

My husband & I stopped for breakfast. As we went through the buffet and selected our food, my husband went to get some cooked to order eggs. He told the cook what he wanted (scrambled well), she told my husband that the scrambled eggs were over there & pointed to the eggs in the warmer. My husband said he wanted his eggs well, not wet like in the warmer & she then told him «no». She would not cook scrambled eggs. We did speak to the manager & our money was refunded but in a customer service based job, I think CUSTOMER SERVICE is very important. I personally will not visit this restaurant again due to poor customer service.

This was my first time there and I was pleased how nice it was the place is clean the staff is friendly and the food is really good they have these little pans with steak and mashed potatoes and mushroom or pot roast and mashed potatoes, the steak and mashed were great love it they have s good salad bar lots of stuff, and good desert bar.
Will be coming back

I have to say i was impressed. I was contacted by the manager and the situation was rectified. Great customer service.

Haven’t been here in years. Got stuck waiting for car repairs and decided to try them again. They were all right before but man has the food gotten awful! There’s stuff on the serving line right now that looks like it’s been sitting out for at least 2 hours. Dried out things, mushy things, things with skins that didn’t start that way… It’s scary.
The maple glazed carrots I got have the flavor and consistency of gelatinous water. The chicken bleeds grease. The cucumbers taste distinctly of veggie rot. The mashed potatoes — which have never been stellar but were at least edible — are now puddles of bland paste that drips off the serving spoon.
I hate to waste money by not finishing what I paid for but I really am afraid some of this stuff might make me sick. I won’t be coming back. The only thing that kept this review from being a 1 star is the fact that the servers I met were very nice.
Scary food though.

So NASTY! First of all the food has no flavor and nothing tastes fresh!!! The tables and chairs are sticky and dirty. The floor smells like death lol it just feels gross to eat there. In the icecream section some kids were sticking there hands in all the candy toppings. The food just tasted old! Never ever going back. And I hope u read this before paying. 13 dollars per person

Man I thought golden coral is nasty. This is 20x worst employees look like they not very clean food empty in buffet not very fresh looking. I would never recommend this buffet to anyone I like lol
Save your money go somewhere else to eat.

We have been regulars here for years, and it’s a BUFFET. It’s not about upscale fine dining — thank heaven. The staff is very accommodating and patient, and since many of the customers are advanced in years, this is a definite plus. The food is basic hearty fare, and there is a good variety considering the wide demographics this restaurant serves. I’m very puzzled by the scattered snarky reviews on this page. My own experience over the past 15 years or so has been very, very different.

A year ago I would have given OCB a 4 star rating. Then things changed. Selections and quality dropped. In an effort to save money, OCB started having single serving items, such as pot roast, sit undera heating lamp. The pot roast is so dried at that it has the texture of jerky. Items are not replaced in a timely way. Service continues to be their shining star. What a disppointment this has become. If there was a Golden Corral in Arrowhead I have no doubt OCB would have to shut their doors.

This is going to be my last visit here… after seeing the owner put a dirty utensil in a sauce after dropping on floor, I’m disgusted!!!

Disgusting! Lol never go here. nothing is fresh went here for lunch today &i must say nastiest buffet ive ever been to in my life. Dont waste your money
Good service but really bad food.

Location & Aesthetics — Located in Glendale just in front of the mall. For me it was a bit difficult to figure out the entrance from the street so I just entered by way of the mall entrance.
Parking is plentiful.
Place is clean both outside and in and well lit.
I found the place a bit small inside with the spacing between the seating a bit close seeing as I had to maneuver to get to the food bar. I can imagine if the place is filled with people it might be difficult to move between the tables. (–1)
Menu — a party of 3 and we paid about $ 30 plus one in our party had a drink which was about $ 2.29 extra… not too bad.
Service — The staff was very friendly. We were greeted immediately upon entering and pricing was explained especially the extra for drinks.
Food — It’s buffet food and though it’s not as extensive as some other buffets I’ve seen or encountered there was enough variety except maybe in the dessert department though I’m not going to minus points for that.
Rating — ⁴⁄₅.

Went here for the first time today. The cashier gal was nice, but she made a mistake on the cash register so then we had to wait 5 minutes for the manager to come void it out. Then we sat ourselves in a booth. The waitress didn’t even come by our table until 20 minutes into our meal. She suggested we get our own drinks and utensils and then walked away. That was the first and only time she came to us. So the customer service was horrible.
The food wasn’t any better. The only thing that was even remotely «fresh» tasting was the salad bar, the rest was old and gross. It was $ 30 for 2 of us. We will never go back.

Yummy! We love this place. It is right by Arrowhead Mall so after a long day of shopping it is great to walk right in and have food hot and ready.
The food here is wonderful and they have a variety of items, including a Mexican food bar which I love. I especially love their enchiladas. Can’t get enough of them suckers. They cook steaks to order and they are juicy and delicious and they have other scrumptious meats ready and waiting at dinner time. They have pizza, fried chicken, pasta, mashed taters, veggies and a big salad bar. All the normal foods you expect at a buffet can be found here. I love all the beverage choices, including the chocolate milk and icees, and let’s not forget about the ample dessert selections. You get in and out pretty quickly but last time we went on Mother’s Day so the line was a little long. I think they have a cheap family night once a week and they walk around passing out cotton candy. They did last year so hopefully they still do
This place really deserves 4.5 stars for having consistently good food for a fair price. I took off points because pricing is not listed on their website and you have to pay for your drink separately. King’s Table back in the day included it all. Would love to see this change. Would also love more discount coupons to be sent thru their Crave Club.
This is the best buffet in town. Can’t wait to go back.

Considering fast food?
If you have the time, and you’re in the area, don’t do fast food – come here. You will have about ten times the selection of better quality food, and all you can eat, for about the same price or just a hair more that you would pay at a fast food joint. You know that BK portions are getting smaller and you are still hungry after eating $ 7 worth of food. Here, you can go back and eat until you are stuffed, whatever they got.
A stomach full of good food at a low price is always nice. You’ll get it here.
