There is a phenomenon called the "golden age syndrome",
http://jwb441.blogspot.ca/2009/05/golden-age-syndrome.html
Woody Allen made a film about the golden age syndrome, titled Midnight in Paris. In the film golden age thinking is revealed to be “the erroneous notion that a different time period is better than the one one’s living in" and that this notion “is a flaw in the romantic imagination of those people who find it difficult to cope with the present”, going so far as to declare “nostalgia is denial, denial of the painful present.”
Of course none of this means that Buffets were not actually better in the 60s and 70s
