Golden Dragon Restaurant — Restaurant in Joplin

Food wise was awful, everything was leftovers or straight up empty I would understand if we got there late but we got there at 1 PM and what ever was there was dry and cold as in left out for too long most of the foods I tried where salty especially the egg drop soup and the friend wings. The service was okay at one point but eventually we had to ask our waiter for more drinks and to pick up our plates (mind you this were our first plates and they where empty except for a family beside us and an elderly couple) but at this time we didn't mind we thought that there's a possibility that they could be short on people (wich could happen in any job) but when a guy showed up that was running late in the family that was sitting beside us and when he went to serve himself some food the waiter approached him and ask what would HE like to eat she would tell the kitchen to make some more I remember him asking for sesame chicken and some...

I have 3 kids and 1 extremely picky eater, and they all were happy to come to GD. Now, with that said, the last 6-8 months, we have given them at least 4 chances to improve, and they have sorely failed. In these months the food on the buffet has been lukewarm, dry, and bland. Our visits have been during regular meal times, so the food should be at its best freshness level. It seems like yesterday's food has been reheated over and over again. We are hard working people and will not waste our money at a place that is going to continue to disappoint. I think 4 chances is more than fair.
