Golden Corral Corporation

When the first Golden Corral restaurant opened in Fayetteville, North Carolina, in 1973, Golden Corral Corporation took a confident first step in the restaurant business, beginning a tradition of offering guests real, wholesome foods in a family-friendly atmosphere and at a great value. Nearly 50 years later, Golden Corral is honored to be called America’s #1 buffet and grill.

Golden Corral strives to offer a pleasurable dining experience that is affordable for every guest, at every restaurant, every day. It begins each day by preparing delicious food, and providing outstanding hospitality. Being best in class is what we are all about…and that is a direct tribute to all the men and women who work here, who strive each day to deliver an enjoyable dining experience for families across America.

The A-Team celebrates a Golden Corral grand opening! Our experienced A-team members provide training to new restaurants to create the foundation for building a team that has the skills, resources, and ability to execute our mission.

The Golden Corral menu offers an unmatched variety of quality foods that are freshly prepared throughout the day, every day. From breakfast to dinner, healthy to hearty, family favorites to seasonal traditions, Golden Corral has it all.

Golden Corral is the founding sponsor of Camp Corral, a one-of-a-kind, world-class camp experience that fosters positive change, increases self-confidence, and builds resilience through top-notch programming at some of the best camps in the United States. Camp Corral transforms the lives of children of wounded, injured, ill and fallen military heroes by providing a unique summer camp experience.

Golden Corral is proud of the U.S. military members who defend our country and rights. We honor them every November with a special thank you dinner on Military Appreciation Night.

Each fall, Golden Corral gathers together as a system to honor our best restaurants and provide an incredible opportunity to network and interact with fellow operators, franchisees, team members and suppliers. Convention attendees hear from guest keynote speakers whose content focuses on such topics as driving excellence, elevating performance, and growing top talent.
