Any of the Brazilian steakhouses tend to be all you can eat type "buffets" but I would say those wouldn't be a bad place to take a date.

Yes, years ago w/ my parents and it was terrible.
It was like a retirement home.

In the town where I went to college, the "n" and the "C" were burnt out on the sign at that place. So at night, it was "Golde orral". I wish I'd taken a picture.

We discussed this option. McDonalds can be okay if you need something quick in order to do something else. New China Buffet is never a good option.

Is Mongolian BBQ a buffet style place? I've always heard it was good but have never eaten there.

But with a twist... you pick all your raw ingredients for stirfry and they cook it on the big hot metal stove. In my experience, very entertaining, interactive and a fun place to take a date. And all you can eat... my record is 8 trips.
