Golden City - Columbiana — Restaurant in Columbiana

Great little whole in the wall kind of place. We will be back. The only pet peeve we had was the appetizer came out, barely started it then the Egg Drop Soup (GREAT) and Ginger Salad, barely had that started then the main meal came out. Crab Wonton was good, Mongolian Beef was tasty, I've eaten some that was bland before this was good. Hubby had Hibachi Shrimp and Scallops which is not your typical cooking style as it came with a brown sauce covering it. He said it was cooked good though and wasn't bad just not what he exprcted. The service is GREAT best I've seen in a long time! I will say they can keep the egg roll. No flavor and was way mushy on the inside. I don't think there was cabbage at all which is what I'm use to having. That was the only item that night we didn't eat. Even my husband didn't like it. As for other commenting on the fried rice. They are about right, not what you might find at most places but it was fine with our meals we ate. Not sure if it would be good as Shrimp, Chicken, Pork etc..Fried Rice though. Next we plan to try the Sushi and...

Call in for takeout. Noon on Saturday. Bama game was on. Ready within 15 minutes.

Service was excellent, fast and friendly.

The California Roll was great. Ingredients were fresh and tasty. Ripe avocado, crispy cucumber. Excellent knife skills.

Sesame chicken was ok. Sauce was a little thin, so the breading got soggy. Flavor was good, but would not order it again.

Fried rice was still mostly white, virtually tasteless, and overcooked to the extent that it held the shape of the ice cream scoop they used to plate it until you cut hunks off the dome. Two scoops. Had some egg in it, but nothing else like peas, carrots, onion, bamboo. I am a big fried rice fan, and this failed. Would avoid it next time.

Egg roll was the standard frozen egg roll.

If you want fast and close, it is average oriental fast food on par with a mall store. If you want quality,...

This restaurant needs to decide whether it is dine in or carry out. Right now it seems a crowded mess. We have eaten here, literally for years, sine the staff moved from Mt. Laurel to Chelsea. The “owner” now, was boastful and rude to my elderly father who has dementia and simply asked him where he was from. He kept saying NYC. He knew what Dad meant (who is a world history professor and just curious). We were basically ignored and corners have been cut. Tasteless soup, egg roll in old grease....
