Its fast American Chinese. I went into cvs for something else and could smell this place from the parking lot. Quick Google and health report said a, I was willing to give it a quick try. I initially went in for cream cheese wontons since they sell them 3 for 1.99 instead of a bag of 8 or so I wouldn't be able to finish. Plus, cheap way to see if I like the item. They had photos of a braised beef soup as well that caught my attention and I ended up ordering as well. Took about 5 minutes to make the soup and the wontons were piping hot. For $20 including tax, I have leftovers and a very full and warm belly. The wontons lean a little towards the green onion, which I like. If you want sweet or sesame oil heavy wontons these aren't the ones. I will absolutely be returning to this restaurant as the food on display looked amazing and being able to purchase items a la Carte instead of always with a side or two mean I can have more proteinand not 5 boxes of rice, as per my medical needs. The teriyaki chicken was actually chicken thighs grilled, not chunks of meat you can't identify. I find that very interesting and they looked amazing and like they had real char. The fried rice smelled amazing, there was no dirty oil smell or gross seafood smell. Smelled like garlic, oil and soy sauce. My ancestors would approve. Good English, my fuzhaou is functionally zero and my mandarin less than ideal, had no issues and they were happy to chat. Ask for sides like hot and soy sauce and if you need a fork or chopsticks, those too. I shame my ancestors, I'm not able to eat soup with chopsticks plus I'm currently without a kitchen, so it's best I think for utensils. Pepsi products fountain and cooler cans, Boba tea to order if that's your jam. Looked decent but I had a drink when I arrived. Truly happy with the flavors and speed. Wasn't so fast it just came out from under a lightbulb, but not slow enough that they made it from scratch- it would take 8+ hours for braised beef. They did ask if I was okay with tendon, so if you know you don't like tendon they will accomodate that no charge. Really, thrilled minus the Pepsi. I'm a coke girl. Worth visiting again. Also had Chinese cookies at checkout, watched an older Chinese couple buy one of each so they...
Read moreI recently dined at this restaurant, and unfortunately, my experience was disappointing. I ordered the two-Entrée meal, which consisted of half noodles and half fried rice, along with orange chicken and another dish of chicken with string beans and carrots (I can't recall the name). Regrettably, the chicken with the string beans and carrots tasted old, as if it had reached its expiration date and was not suitable for consumption.
Additionally, the orange chicken, while it did not have the old expired chicken taste, was served reheated, indicating that it had been sitting for a while before being served. I inquired about the possibility of a fresh batch, but it seemed they only reheated a small portion without truly preparing it anew. As a result, the chicken became mostly chewy and lacked the freshness one would expect.
Furthermore, I observed that the staff serving the food did not wear gloves. I noticed their fingers touching the noodles as they were being served, which raised concerns about hygiene practices.
Overall, the food did not taste good, and the overall experience was far from pleasant. Based on my experience, I cannot recommend this restaurant, and I do not intend to return.
I would like to note that the veggie spring roll was...
Read moreMy family raves about this take out Chinese restaurant. I didn't get it until I went. There is always a long line even up til closing so a lot of other people get it, too!
This is where an experienced and caring owner stands out above the rest of the fast food wok style to-go places - They are well staffed. Lots of people working on the line, at checkout, in the kitchen and communicating to the kitchen. Staff is courteous and friendly. The food is better than average and different. Not the same things you are accustomed to. The servings are very large. Either come very hungry or share. Quality ingredients The chow menu noodles are very flavorful and could be eaten by themselves. Prices are good. Comparable to other restaurants of the same type but the portion size and quality is much better. Great value.
The stand out dish is their hot and sour soup. Great flavor. Different taste then any other I have tried. It is a white color not a brown or reddish. Quite delicious and definitely unique. I would recommend you try it!
They have a small seating area and there are some tables outside but most food is purchased to eat at home.
So if you are in the mood for fast food Chinese definitely try Golden Chopstix. You will get good food at a...
