Golden Road Grand Central Market — Restaurant in Los Angeles

This location is in a very fun a unique spot, however, the food and service left more to be desired. The beer is solid. Straight forward Golden Road beer selections. But this review is about the lack of great customer service, and the horrible "chicken tenders". When we sat down at a spot at the bar, we not greeted or even acknowledged. Only when we moved to a spot near the television, were we greeted (not warmly) with menus. I ordered the Chicken Tenders + Fries. What I recieved (pictured) didn't even resemble tenders. They were rubbery, and less than a centimeter thick. The inside did not seem like chicken. Not even edible. And the fries were boring. Perhaps just order food and take it elsewhere in Grand Central Market. Just don't order...

I've always been a fan of Golden Road Brewing. I've been to their location in la/Glendale area. It's not the nicest or best brewery out there but it's definitely a fun place to go. The location inside of Grand Central Market was no different.

It's got a good location upstairs near street and dining area. If you've never been to Grand Central Market you may ask what's so good about that spot. Well downstairs is where 99% of the vendors are and tons of people are cramped into small aisles. Golden Road has plenty of room and you never feel packed.

I do recommend stopping by for a cold one. They have great beer and offer you the chance to buy certain mugs with your beer. Pretty neat. If you buy your own mug, refills are five bucks!

Cute spot in the Central Market! It would be better if they use biodegradable cups or offer more canned beers. I didn’t order beer because I’m plastic-free. My canned mango sparkling wine was good but they’re known for local beer! My vegan burger was delicious - liked their vegan cheese! My friend ordered a regular burger with vegan cheese (instead of American)- she liked it! Appreciated paper plates but server gave us too many napkins and tried to give us plastic cups (when my whole point of getting a can was to avoid plastic waste). Also disappointed they didn’t offer pretzels anymore on the menu. 🅿️Street Meter...
