In honor of Veterans Day, numerous North Texas restaurants are offering special meals and discounts as they way of saying thanks for your service to all veterans. We’ve rounded up a few of these offers here.
Golden Corral invites all active-duty military, retirees, reservists, guardsmen and veterans to enjoy a complimentary dinner buffet and beverage on Veterans’ Day. This is the 23rd annual Military Appreciation Night offered by Golden Corral at all locations Nov. 11 from 4 p.m. until close.
In addition to serving free meals to those who have bravely served, Golden Corral is continuing its partnership with Disabled American Veterans. Local DAV chapters will be stationed at restaurants, where guests can contribute through direct donations or by rounding up their checks at the register. All proceeds will go toward providing essential services to disabled veterans and their families.
“We have been honored to stand alongside DAV for more than 20 years, ensuring that our nation’s heroes receive the appreciation and support they truly deserve,” said Lance Trenary, CEO of Golden Corral. “As we celebrate our 23rd Military Appreciation Night, we remain steadfast in our mission to give back to those who have so selflessly served our country.”
In 2023, Golden Corral served nearly 190,000 complimentary “Thank You” meals and raised more than $1 million for local DAV chapters on Military Appreciation Night. Since the inception of Military Appreciation Night in 2001, Golden Corral has raised over $19.5 million and provided nearly 6.5 million free meals.
The Military Appreciation Night offer is valid at all Golden Corral locations for dine-in only and does not extend to spouses, friends, or other family members. Military identification is not required to receive the complimentary meal.
