Buffets offer something for every appetite—whether you crave carving stations, international flavors or towering dessert spreads—and they’ve surged in popularity as diners seek variety and value. In fact, buffet dining in the U.S. grew by nearly 8 percent last year as families and groups rediscovered the joy of sampling multiple dishes in one sitting. From artisan pizzas to all-you-can-eat churrasco, Utah Valley’s best buffets serve up endless options and customizable meals.
Brick Oven’s Provo location transforms Italian comfort food into a build-your-own feast. The buffet line features made-from-scratch pizzas—think classic Margherita or BBQ chicken—alongside fresh pasta tossed in house-crafted sauces. Start at the salad bar, then load up on garlic-knot rolls and oven-roasted vegetables before sampling creamy lasagnas and meatballs simmered in San Marzano tomato sauce. Seasonal soups and rotating dessert choices—like tiramisu and bread pudding—round out the spread, ensuring every visit feels both familiar and fresh.
At Tucanos, the buffet begins with an all-you-can-eat salad bar stocked with crisp greens, charred pineapples and Brazilian-style vinaigrettes. From there, the real spectacle unfolds: servers carve an endless rotation of churrasco skewers tableside. Guests can control their pace with a simple green/red card system, moving seamlessly from top sirloin and garlic chicken to bacon-wrapped filet mignon. Traditional sides—creamy polenta, black beans and cheesy pão de queijo—complement the smoky meats, while a dessert buffet offers flan, brigadeiros and seasonal fruit.
Golden Corral’s Orem buffet casts a wide net over American classics and international dishes. The carving station churns out honey-glazed ham and slow-roasted beef, while the grill corner flips burgers and chicken tenders to order. Sautéed stir-fries and comfort-food casseroles share space with crisp salads and fresh fruit. No buffet here would be complete without the endless hot bar—mac ’n’ cheese, mashed potatoes and steam-table veggies—and a dessert section overflowing with cakes, pies and soft-serve ice cream machines for custom sundaes.
