" Golden City is truly a delightful experience. Each dish we ordered was full of authentic flavors, and the dim sum is excellent for sharing. We loved the bright and welcoming decor along with the friendly staff. A place that we will definitely return to whenever in the area! " (*Curated Review*)

" I have been to several dim sum spots in Victoria, and Golden City stands out for its authentic cuisine and flavorful dishes. Some items were a bit oily for my taste, but overall, I enjoyed the experience. The service was friendly, if not a tad slow. I will keep this place in my dining rotation! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a pretty decent experience at Golden City. The food was authentic Cantonese, which I really appreciated, but the service felt a bit lacking. We had to wait a bit longer than expected for our food to arrive, and our server wasn’t very attentive. Overall, I would say it was good, but there’s room for improvement in service. " (*Curated Review*)

" This restaurant has a very authentic feeling that reminds me of my experiences traveling in China. The food is pretty good, but the service can be hit or miss. I've had times when everything has gone smoothly, but there have also been instances when the staff seemed overwhelmed. It's worth going back for sure, especially for the dumplings! " (*Curated Review*)

" Disappointed with my recent visit. While the restaurant seemed promising, the food was far too salty and my dish lacked any depth of flavor. It’s a shame because I’ve had great meals there in the past. The service also felt rushed, and I didn’t feel very valued as a customer. I might not return soon unless I hear about improvements. " (*Curated Review*)

" I tried dim sum here for the first time, and I absolutely loved it! The prawn and chive dumplings were a delightful surprise, bursting with flavor. The prices were reasonable for the quality received. I’ll definitely be back soon to explore more of their dishes. The ambiance is also lovely for a casual dining experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" Golden City is a cozy, upscale dim sum spot that caters well to larger groups. The service was distinctly prompt, and the staff made sure we were well taken care of. The food, namely the shrimp dumplings and turnip cakes, were fresh and hot. We could easily have split our order between two people as the portions were generous. " (*Curated Review*)
