" I ordered takeout from Golden Dragon when it first opened, and I have to say, I was a bit hesitant due to a few inconsistent reviews. However, my experience was top-notch! The staff were very accommodating, and every dish I tried was fantastic. It's safe to say I will definitely return for more of their walnut prawns! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had dinner at Golden Dragon last week. The food was good, but I found some of the items too salty for my taste. The service, on the other hand, was excellent! The staff made sure to check on us frequently, which I appreciated. I'm thinking of trying their lunch menu next time for better value! " (*Curated Review*)

" What a pleasant surprise! Golden Dragon is a delightful culinary experience. I ordered the Cantonese-style chow mein and it was phenomenal! Although the restaurant was slightly busy, the service remained attentive, making our dining experience enjoyable. I would absolutely recommend it to anyone looking for authentic Chinese food. " (*Curated Review*)

" Golden Dragon has been a neighborhood staple for as long as I can remember. Recently, I went for a casual dinner and ordered their orange chicken and sizzling rice soup. The flavors were comforting, and the portions were generous. However, the service was a bit rushed, which took away from the overall experience. Still, it remains my go-to spot for Chinese food in the area. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Golden Dragon with friends who had raved about the place for years. The ambiance was pleasant but somewhat ordinary, though the friendly staff made up for it. As for the food – the fried rice was decent, but the sweet and sour chicken felt overly sweet with little balance in flavor. " (*Curated Review*)

" Golden Dragon isn't just a restaurant; it's an experience. I visited for a birth celebration, and the atmosphere felt lively and inviting. They prepared our dishes family-style, which made it easy to share. The honey walnut shrimp was amazing and the rest of our meal lived up to the reputation. I will definitely be coming back for future celebrations! " (*Curated Review*)

" Golden Dragon is definitely one of the better Chinese restaurants out there. I enjoyed my meal, but I was hoping for more authenticity in terms of flavors. Although I appreciate that the portions were generous, there were a few items that were not seasoned well. I would be willing to give them another shot though! " (*Curated Review*)
