text: Went to Golden Corral tonight at the recently opened location in Las Vegas I had never been to a Golden Corral before and did not know what to expect although I had done some research before handnnMy wife and I wanted lunch as to avoid what we figured would be a large dinner crowd so we arrived about It was quite busy with a line at the cashier stand however the line moved quickly The major bottleneck is the beverage station it slows forward progress as diners fill their glasses As long as you are going to have servers that refill your drinks you might as well have them serve the initial drink to avoid the delay at the front door nnThe price was good I am used to twoforone deals at the casino buffets so it was weird paying for both lunches but the pricing was reasonablennWe were able to find a table with no difficulty as it was seat yourself at that time The restaurant was clean and tables were bussed frequently with no piles of dirty plates or napkins cluttering the tables nnThe food was very good some items were a little bland for my taste such as the mexican dishes were not as spicy as I would have liked The meatloaf was a hit for me and my wife which we consider the best meatloaf of any buffet The steakburger sliders were very good too nnWe were very pleased with how often the food is rotated I did not see any old or dried out food on the buffet line We had to be careful when eating because the food was very hot which is a plus I also like how you can watch the food preparation as you are eating It is nice to watch them cooking as your eating so you know the food is being handled well and prepared freshnnThe desert area was very good as well Although it is hard to get to the fountains because of the volume of people trying to use them it is almost always walltowall people at the desert counter I can highly recommend the hand scooped ice cream toonnLastly everyone even the other diners were very friendly Everyone was observing proper line etiquette and excusing themselves Not jumping in line waiting patiently Such a nice change from buffets where the norm is the entitled elite who think they run the world and you must allow them to cut in front of you and in general ignore you It is nice to be seen and to be acknowledged and to use the people skills our parents taught us Oh and there were a lot of servers buss persons and staff keeping everything running very smoothlynnAs long as things stay the same at this location I am quite sure it will remain our favorite buffet in Las Vegas
