People are right favorites from the grill station are gone. You are a little slow refilling items and deserts are not what thy were. the people cleaning tables are overwhelmed to many tables to few staff. But my biggest problem is getting my food using my cane or walker.

it is sad to see a family resturant go under . i see you have been trying to get the quality of the food back which is a great improvement

I wish I could say I've eaten at OCB recently but I haven't. It's been years actually and that's sad. It's not because we do not like OCB, it's because you decided to close your Crystal Lake location and the closest one to us now is in Arlington Heights, miles away.

It would be great to have you reopen a restaurant northwest of Arlington Heights.

Sometimes I bring my little niece who loves Mac n Cheese. At another restaurant, it costs me almost $15 to feed her tiny bowls of Mac n Cheese -\-\ and she's tiny too. At OC... read more

Food is flavorless and cheap. Who wants to eat boiled cabbage? They do not serve steak anymore and is a place that we will check off our list of places to eat. Another thing, clean that filthy rug. It is disgusting. It is the same rug since they opened and seems to me they never cleaned it. The board of health should be notified.

2017 update - Not sure why this still shows up on the OCB page as they closed down this location about a year ago. From 2014 - It is so sad to witness the slow decline of OCB. At it's peak it was our 'go to' family dining destination. Today this local lone remaining Old Country Buffet is average at best. Prices continue to rise while quality and selection go down. Our last visit saw the discontinuation of grilled steak. This follows the overall dismantling of the grill station that used to offer stir fry and ribs. Couple wit... read more
