This place is fantastic for family-style dining! We ordered one of their Family Packages and were very happy with the quality and value. The portions are generous—definitely enough to share—and it’s great that you can mix and match different entrées like Orange Chicken, Kung Pao Chicken, Mongolian Beef, and even vegetarian options.
The food came out fresh, hot, and flavorful. The Orange Chicken was crispy with just the right amount of sauce, the beef dishes were tender, and the veggies were cooked perfectly. We also loved the egg rolls and the soup, which made the meal feel complete.
What really stands out is the convenience—the set packages make it so easy to order for a group without worrying about variety, and the price is very reasonable for the amount of food you get. Perfect for families, friends, or even small parties. We’ll definitely be coming back again!

Golden Dragon Chinese Food is a hidden gem! Every dish we tried was bursting with flavor.
The Sliced Beef Shank with Chili Sauce was tender and spicy with just the right kick. The Honey Walnut Shrimp was perfectly crispy and sweet – a must-try!
The Hot & Spicy Fish Fillet had bold, rich flavors and a satisfying heat level. We also loved the Fried Noodles and Juicy Pork Dumplings – both fresh and delicious. And the Kung Pao Chicken was a classic done right – savory, slightly sweet, with a great crunch from the peanuts.
Will definitely be coming back soon!

$9.95 Lunch Deal That’ll Blow Your Mind： Unexpectedly awesome lunch find!
Found this spot kind of randomly, and wow — what a great surprise. Golden Dragon might not look fancy from the outside, but the food hits so right.
Their $9.95 lunch special is a steal — you get rice + a drink included, and portions are solid. No MSG either, which I really appreciate.
Here’s what I tried:
Orange Chicken – Super crispy, not soggy at all. The sauce was tangy and just sweet enough without being too sticky. Legit one of the better versions I’ve had in a while.
Mongolian Beef – Tender beef, savory sauce, and the onions still had a little crunch. I wasn’t expecting much, but it totally delivered.
Salt & Pepper Fish – Crispy, flavorful, and not greasy. The diced peppers and onions gave it some nice texture and heat. Would 100% order again.
Pot Stickers – Classic, golden pan-fried dumplings. Crispy bottom, juicy filling. Exactly what you want from a potsticker.
Beef Noodle Soup – The pork bone broth is deep and rich — super comforting. If you like noodle soups, don’t skip this one.
✨ Quick service, chill atmosphere, and everything came out fresh and hot.
For under $10? Kinda wild these days.
If you’re in the area during lunch hours (Mon–Fri 11am–3pm), this spot is seriously worth checking out. Hidden gem vibes.

very delicious black pepper beef ; was crafted very excellent by the chef. It came with a little bit of mushrooms, onions, green bell pepper, and black pepper. Very, very delicious. Enjoyed it very much. This restaurant is very excellent. The seating is very excellent also.

Stopped in for lunch decided to get a dinner entree honey walnut shrimp. Very reasonably priced was served to me for takeout quite quickly and when I got home it was quite delicious. I would recommend this place.

Their food is absolutely amazing. First, I ordered take out for my entire family and it was ready for pickup within twenty minutes. Second, we ordered an array of dishes and every one was to die for. Third, thir portion sizes are easily large enough to share ir make meals from, if you can stop at the first half that is. Finally, they also have $10 lunch specials which is the best. Couldn’t recommend more.

It’s a sit-down restaurant style,it does not offer takeout plates so beware if you’re looking for a fast-casual service like Panda Express or other Chinese takeout style restaurants. The food was really good and it’s worth the price, but if you’re looking for a specific food serve style, like a fast casual style, this is more of a sit down dinner and the food quality matches the slow down and enjoy rather than quick and convenient

They forgot the peanuts in my very very bland kung pao chicken with undercooked bell peppers. Spring rolls like cheap frozen from Walmart. No fork. I did get a spoon but that didn’t help much. Didn’t ask if I want rice. It may have specified somewhere on the menu that it’s not included, but it was not obvious to me. Hot and sour soup was hot, but no flavor. $30 for one person. It was edible, but not enjoyable.
