A delicious experience with many different food items. Leaving hungry shouldn't be a problem. Service is good and atmosphere is low key and relaxed. Give it a try, you'll be glad you did!

My husband and I absolutely love this place!! Great food and service. The prices are worth what is being served. I would recommend Sundays because of the dishes they have out. They are constantly putting out fresh food and making certain that they food is always topped off. There is very little to no waiting time. Highly recommend. Our favorite buffet in Modesto.

Consistent good food! Great price and the staff is attentive. Atmosphere is just fine as far as the folks who run the place... often though the "uneducated" bring their kids to run amuck and/or sit there with iPads on high volume during dinner. That's OK, we've learned to expect it. It does NOT deter from the delicious food!

Who doesn't love a great buffet, boy I sure do..and the Grand Buffet is about the best in Modesto! So, when I was finished setting up the Keeler's Aagonaught thingamabob over at the Spindly Dodah Ranch for Arephonious Astropolous my Greek pal from the old country, I headed straight there for some pretty amazing food. And as always the Grand Buffet pulled out a 5 rating!
