" Had a disappointing experience at Golden City. I ordered a large order for a family dinner, and it was all kind of bland. I was really looking forward to the kung pao chicken but it lacked that spicy kick I expect. The service was fine; the lady at the counter was nice enough, but I don't think I would order again after that experience. Sorry! " (*Curated Review*)

" Tried Golden City for the first time and was really impressed! The food was fresh, and the portions were generous for the price. My favorites were the sweet and sour chicken and the shrimp rolls. My only complaint is the lack of seating and the cash-only policy. Overall, a great find if you want good Chinese takeout. " (*Curated Review*)

" The Golden City Chinese Restaurant has become my go-to for delicious takeout. I've been coming here for years, and their General Tso's chicken never disappoints. It's crispy, juicy, and packed with flavor. I also love their fried rice—it’s cooked to perfection! The only downside is the cash-only policy, which can be inconvenient if you forget cash. But honestly, the food is worth it! I highly recommend this place to anyone in the area. " (*Curated Review*)

" Golden City has the best takeout in the area, period. The flavors transport me straight to Chinatown. I particularly enjoy their hot and sour soup and their lo mein. Everything always tastes fresh and authentic, something hard to find nowadays. I’ve been coming here for years, and while the owner can be a bit intimidating, the food is top-notch. If you're craving authentic Chinese food without the frills of dining out, this is the place to go. " (*Curated Review*)

" I took my mom here after she raved about it, but we left feeling underwhelmed. The staff was friendly, but they messed up our order, and the food was just decent. Nothing really blew me away, and we both left hungry after. I hate to say it, but I probably won’t return, which is a bummer since she had recommended it so highly. " (*Curated Review*)

" Was in the area and heard great things about Golden City. Tried the shrimp fried rice, and while it was decent, it didn’t have the wow factor I was expecting. Additionally, I had to wait quite a bit for my food with no explanation from the staff. I can appreciate their effort, but there’s definitely room for improvement overall. " (*Curated Review*)

" My friends and I often go to Golden City after a long day. We order different dishes each time, but the General Tso's shrimp has become a favorite. The portions are generous, and there's something nostalgic about the place that makes it feel homey. The owner does need to work on her attitude a bit; she can come off as harsh when you ask questions. Regardless, the food keeps us coming back. Worth trying if you're in the neighborhood!
