Golden Oak Buffet - Oak Ridge

For many years already often there. were with family and business colleagues. best eating with many different types really to eat without waiting. large square with beautiful sitting and people close to help them for everyone needs. I drive my family there about 20 miles. eat very cheap vs do it their own cost. I would take my family there, even if we had to travel a hundred miles. buffet is very large and always full. I wish there were more places like these.

Very clean place and great food. I didn't know what to order, so I got a buffet to go. I had a lil sample of everything, and I really enjoyed it all. They charge by the weight which isn't a problem. You get enough food for the price. I will be back.

UPDATE: Below was my review from 4 years ago and I had given it a 4 star. Today I give it a 5 star.We arrived around 4:11 and it was not crowded. The food ventured between good and super yummy. I had the wonton soup. There were no green onions but the taste of the soup made up for it. The noodle wrap was so soft as to slide off in my mouth yet it was firm enough to hold the meal. I had a little bit of everything and boy did I love it!The spring roll was crispy yet soft to chew. I dipped it in hot mustard/horseradish. It packed a punch to it but it's good for the sinuses! So be forewarned, when I say pack a punch? It really packs a punch! My eyes were watering and I'm hot!The chicken in a stick was well cooked yet tasty.I had some veggies and cottage cheese. The ginger slices were not as spicy but they were ok.The sweet tea tasted different thatin Knoxville but I think it's due to the water they use.All in all the food was marvelous, the service good. The prices while expensive were reasonable for the quality. You'll notice the taste in quality compared to cheaper Chinese restaurants in Knoxville.Now to go have some ice cream to cool down. Unfortunately the soft ice cream machine is out of order (4 years ago the ice cream coming out of it was liquid but now it's out of order) but at least they had hard ice cream.All in all the experience was good 4 years ago:The gravy was too salty. There were only there choices of soft ice cream from the machine. The chocolate and chocolate-vanilla were liquid. The vanilla came out ok. Other than that the food was good. The service was very fast, if fact a little too fast. The girl started to remove his meal and he was not yet finished. She kept trying to refill his unsweet tea when it was still full. When it was empty, she was nowhere to be seen and it took 20 minutes to have a refill. And when she did finally come she gave us a frosty look.

Update: food with great, service was great. Price was about $33 for two. They have the best hot mustard anywhere, although the pickled ginger wasn't very hot. They have everything on the buffet, from pizza and cottage cheese and potato salad and regular salad to sushi and all your favorite Chinese.4 years ago: Most of the food was excellent. Service was a bit TOO active, as they tried to clear plates I was not done with and refresh my self-sweetened drink way too often. Potato salad was too sweet but who rates a Chinese restaurant on its potato salad? Very busy, very crowded, on Christmas day. Men's room was dark and cold, had a heater set for 39F.

The buffet has a bit of everything and it's all very well prepared. The staff is kind and gives a good energy to the restaurant. Plus the deserts are delicious as well!!! ???
