Our first time, it won't be our last!
I ordered General Tso's fried Tofu- it was so good and crisp on the outside, fluffy but still had a pleasing chewy texture inside. At first I thought they mixed up my order and gave me chicken breast but they didn't. This is the best VEGAN Chinese I've ever had! It was so good, everyone at dinner was eating mine lol.
That's okay, they gave me more than enough to share and I still have leftovers.
That's the reason I'm leaving this review- we were all making yummy noises over dinner. Thanks to Golden China for unexpectedly good takeout.
My sister ordered the Mongolian beef with lo mein and she devoured every last bite. The dinner servings were quite generous too. Just saying, the egg rolls were also really good. Everything was made fresh and steaming hot-- a much different experience from our usual delivery place. (I doubt we'll be going back to the old place again.)
My only suggestions for the chefs at Golden China would be to add veggies. I've never seen a General Tso's or Mongolian beef without steamed broccoli. I also suggest ordering additional rice with your dinner (if you like rice with your Chinese food). The dinner portions are large, and your rice portion is small. Typically this is the opposite at restaurants to fill you up with cheap rice instead of the good quality food. I so appreciate that they don't hold back on their best food for their customers. Just ask for extra rice. Problem solved.
This is not a criticism. Another suggestion to the chef, you can make the food more spicy. It was so delicious and almost PERFECT!!! People expect General Tso's chicken (and tofu) to have a mild spicy kick. Mongolian beef should also have some chili spice.
I appreciate their online pre-ordering feature, which simplified the process. When I have an extra large order for work or party functions, that feature will come in handy. Tonight we picked up, so hopefully their delivery is just as good as their carry out is. I'm excited this place is here in Canton. 💛 Happy to support a good small business... Especially one with accessibility options and vegetarian choices so that...
Read moreIf you ever find yourself wandering into this place, I’d recommend a prayer. My girlfriend and I ordered takeout, thinking we’d be in for a delicious meal. Instead, we were greeted by an ominous dread due to the lack of flavors overall from our meal. The sesame chicken? Imagine chewing on a rubber tire that’s been marinated in nothing. It had the same “flavor” as something you’d find in a science lab, but less edible. The fried rice was as exciting as a soggy towel, leaving us feeling fully dreadful about the overall meal. But wait, there’s more! The beef and broccoli came with a glimmer of hope, but that quickly fizzled when we encountered the lo mein. The lo mein was a tragedy. A soggy, sad collection of noodles, drenched in what could only be described as dishwater, required a hint of soy sauce—an attempt to save it, but tragically, it was too late. The noodles had already been ruled out by my girlfriend. Desperate for some salvation, my girlfriend bravely reached for the egg rolls. Surely these would be the hero of our meal, right? Wrong. Upon touching the bag, she was met with a sensation so unnerving, she recoiled in horror. The egg rolls were a mushy, sad excuse for food—so unappetizing that she didn’t even bother taking a bite. The horror continued when we cracked open the fortune cookies, only to be greeted with—dampness. Yes, dampness. The cookie was soggy, the fortune was soggy, and even the luck seemed soggy. To make matters worse, instead of a prophecy of prosperity, we found an ad for Stake gambling. Apparently, they want us to bet on anything other than this meal. The one bright spot? The service. The girl at the front greeted me with a smile so wide. She deserves a raise and cooks that actually make her feel supported. In summary: this place is a tale of two worlds—one where the service is excellent, and the other where the food is a horror story waiting to unfold. If you're looking for a meal that’s anything other than disturbing, do yourself a favor and run to the nearest high rated...
Read moreI've gone here MANY times and it's always been average and decent enough to comeback, UNTIL NOW.. I go in, no line. One person waiting for their food. Lady takes my order right away and without saying a word walks away. THE PROBLEM IS I WAITED 25MIN FOR 1 ORDER OF SESEME CHICKEN ALL WHILE 2 PEOPLE WHO ORDERS HUGE ORDERS AFTER ME RECIEVED THEIR FOOD FIRST!? THEN SOMEONE AFTERWARDS ORDER THE SAME THING I DID AND WAS TOLD 10MIN HAHA!! SO I STAND UP AFTER SITTING PATIENTLY AS POSSIBLE, AND THEN THE LADY GOES TO THE BACK GRABS A BAG AND PUT MY FOOD IN IT WHICH HAD BEEN SITTING THERE FOR GOD KNOWS HOW LONG, BUT THE PART THAT MADE ME WRITE THIS IS SHE HAS ME MY FOOD, STICK HER HAND OUT FOR MY CARD, AND WHEN I HAD IT TO HER SHE WALKS AWAY AGAIN WITHOUT SAYING A WORD! AND A MINUTE LATER COMES BACK HANDS ME MY CARD TO SIGN IT AND SHE COULDN'T EVEN SAY SORRY FOR THE WAIT OR THANK YOU FOR YOUR BUSINESS OR SORRY MY F'N FOOD IS COLD!! SHE SAID NOTHING. WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE AND THE FOOD HAS ALWAYS BEEN DECENTLY WHATEVER.. I DO NOT...
