Golden China Restaurant — Restaurant in Turlock

If it were possible to give negative stars I would. I seen this place while shopping at save mart and I decided to go in. First of all the place is very run down and, the woman that seated me was rude beyond belief. I almost had to snap my fingers to get attention. When she seated me, she tossed the menu on the table like I was an enemy from high school. I overlooked that. Then she brought me a glass of tap water with very little ice in it. I finally ordered the pork lo-main. It was Luke warm just like the tap water and tasted pretty much like a microwaveable frozen dinner from the supermarket. Before I could finish it, I went to the rest room. I couldn't believe what I seen. There were roaches crawling in the trashcan and a few on the cracks on the ceiling. I was so disgusted I suggested to the woman (I think it was the owner) that she should consider closing this "restaurant" due to health reasons. She was, just like her waitress, very rude and told me to take my business elsewhere. I will call the board of health. But, in the meantime,...

Love this restaurant. The location is ok. Not a bad area. But there are a lot of homeless people around. I don't mind that because I actually have helped the homeless since I was 14 years old. Anywho, the service is good and fast! Super friendly people/workers. Food is greatly priced and tastes very very good!! It's not my all time favorite, but it is my favorite in Turlock. I almost always get the egg flower soup, steamed white rice, foil chicken, egg roles(3), an order of pot stickers, and 2 large chow mein all for $40. Always fresh and always the same taste when I order. No matter the day or time I go! Which says a lot because Turlock has a very bad habit of being inconsistent everywhere I go. But not here. My son is 6 years old and a picky eater at the moment, he loves the egg roles and foil chicken with white rice. He also loves the lemon chicken, orange chicken, teriyaki chicken, and one of the shrimp platters. Highly recommend if...

Just not the same anymore. First we went in at 5:30 pm, on a Saturday...it was quiet, only 3 tables and then us. Was greeted in an abrupt manner, not friendly, I asked for a menu to read, since their menu was under the glass table and I could not read it from the angle unless I had a neck like a giraffe. Then, we ordered what we have been ordering for years, but it tasted odd and had different ingredients. Asked for chopsticks ( which is strange since they did not have them on the tables-you had to ask). Then we had asked for hot tea which was not hot-it was warm, we had to flag our server down several times who was ignoring us as she was flying back and forth by our table. So, the bottom line is, poor service, poor food and not all like it was. Left me not wanting...
