I absolutely love this place. We ordered a bunch of food for Chinese New Year and it was amazing, everyone loved it. The staff is also really friendly. Definitely eat here if you get the chance!
Update: came here again, still loved it. Service was still just as great. It was my birthday so we came in with a cake and our server offered to keep it cool for us while we ate. We ordered Honey Glazed Shrimp and Mongolian Beef. Both tasted amazing. -

This is my first time at Golden China restaurant,my wife has been here before she told me the food is really good. I had to try it out. I enjoyed the Chinese cuisine as everybody makes their version of Chinese classic style different from others. We walk in the restaurant we were seated right away and the waiter hand us the menu and we order our drinks.
We look at the menu and decide get the $20 person meal comes with the wonton soup, three appitzier and we pick the meal we want it. The first meal was the wonton soup,the waiter serve the soup to us. The wonton soup was really good with of the shrimp and meatballs wonton add it so much flavor in soup we both enjoy it. The second meal was the appitzier it comes with two fried shrimp, two spare ribs and chicken in a triangle sharp foil I don't remember the name.
It come it a dipping sauce it hot mustard and ketchup and honey on a plate. The fried shrimp was crunchy and really good and spare ribs were so good and chicken was really with lots of flavors. The meal we was the bbq pork with snow peas I love this meal very I enjoy the bbq pork it was sweet and sour and snow peas was crunchy and also the water chestnut putting those ingredients was incredible.
The other meal pick was lemon chicken it was so good and chicken was crispy and cover with pablo or bread crumb it was good plus it comes with a lemon sauce it was so good it taste like lemon and smell like lemon.
The meal was delicious we enjoy it. The staff were great and nice. We probably go back again. -

This my first time I had lunch here, my girlfriend has eaten here before. The food was okay, the service was average, prices not too bad.
So, why the one star?
Because, they DO NOT calculate the proper amount of sales tax, by charging too much sale tax! At the time of this posing, the sales tax is 9.5%. The order sub-total was $19.25. With the tax rate at 9.5%, the tax should be, after following the generally accepted rules for rounding, $1.83. The tax was $1.85. Now, maybe you're thinking that's no big deal, but it is for the restaurant owner! I have no doubt that they do this all day long for every customer that comes here, every day they are open! So, it adds up for them! Extra money at YOUR expense!
I complained to one of the waiters, and he gave me some unclear, senseless answer about they don't have 2's or 3's in their calculations(?) and round to the total to the nearest 5 or 10 cents(?). Even his example didn't make any sense!
Anyway, he reduced the total amount, but not by 2 cents, but 3 cents(?). That didn't make sense, either! I paid the bill and we left.
My gal said they were probably over-charging her on the sales tax (as I mentioned, she has eaten here before -- several times). Both of us will no longer eat here, again!
I also made a complaint to the appropriate state agency about this.
DO NOT EAT HERE! DO SO AT YOUR OWN RISK! -

Went with a large party for lunch. Prices good, food was good and service was fast. The servers were nice and the place was clean. I'll be going back again. Would have gave 5 stars but was charged wrong and awaiting my refund of the difference. Once that happens I'll add another star to reflect 5.

I'm sad to leave this review I really am ...after years of coming here and swearing by this place and their food and bringing people here and also even working for them at one point ..the might as fallen what use to be a family friendly place where everyone served you and treated with respect is no more they are really rude been coming here since I was 5 or even earlier now they are just super rude and it's not ok I will hate to say this but will not be returning as a long Time customer I'm done thank you golden China for making my mind up about this place
