The first Golden Corral restaurant opened in Fayetteville, N.C., in 1973. The family-style restaurant specializes in large buffets and grills. Its famous Golden Choice Buffet contains an array of hot meat options as well as pasta, pizza, fresh vegetable choices, salad bar and a selection of carved meats at dinner and on Sundays. The restaurant also features a Great Steak Buffet that offers an all-you-can-eat sirloin steak. All steaks are USDA inspected and are grilled to order. Golden Corral s steaks are always cut fresh daily for better flavor and juiciness. Its baked goods in the Brass Bell Bakery and Dessert Caf include in-house hot yeast rolls, cookies and brownies that are baked fresh every 15 minutes.
