Reviews
When I called, I was told the total would be around $20, although I didn’t catch the exact amount. However, upon arrival, the total came to $26.53, which I found quite steep for a Chinese takeout order.
The food was packaged in two separate containers one with three large Egg Foo Young patties and another with shrimp fried rice. Unfortunately, the rice container was not filled, resulting in an uneven ratio of Egg Foo Young to rice. After eating one patty with the rice, I was left with two more and nothing to pair them with.
The garlic sauce was particularly disappointing thin, watery, and lacking flavor. To make matters worse, the container wasn’t even filled completely, so there wasn’t enough sauce to accompany the remaining patties. At nearly $30, a full portion of sauce should be a basic expectation.
I also noticed a significant difference in quality compared to previous visits, which might be due to a recent change in ownership, as mentioned in other reviews. I used to regularly order their garlic wings with fried rice and remember the sauce being much more flavorful in the past.
This order did not include an egg roll or a drink, which further added to the feeling that the meal was overpriced. Ultimately, I gave the leftovers to a homeless individual rather than throw them away, as I couldn’t justify wasting the $30, I had spent — but unfortunately, the food was so unappetizing that I cannot recommend it.
Overall, this was a very disappointing experience. Between the high prices, poor quality food, and lack of consistency, I won’t be returning.
I found chicken wings that are the closest in taste at (of all places) a Mexican food truck next to / behind a tiny gas station at the corner of Albemarle rd & Wilgrove-mint hill rd ironically I would NOT recommend the Mexican food (& check y’all order before you leave, & count your wings cus they will cheat you) but after over a year of trying a ton of new Chinese restaurant their wings taste about 50% similar mind you they look nothing like them but the taste was giving old golden gate wings. I’m still on the search for similar wings drop the address if you know a place even if it’s not in charlotte.
Update:
Big Wok II in Rock Hill – has somewhat the same rice. (I’m still searching for a place with similar chicken wings.)
Honorable mention: Ks Asian Xpress- (in Charlotte) they have more a more delicious spicy red chilly sauce hotter than golden gate … the food here is amazing too but different than golden gate but good. (When y’all drive up just remember: Don’t judge a book by it’s cover)
Original Review:
Please don’t gate keep. Anyone. Please post a review if you know of another restaurant with the old recipe/style of cooking that this restaurant use to have. From my understanding the new owners were given the recipe to the original food but based on the food they are cooking now looks like they didn’t care to follow the instructions and are cooking different variations which I don’t care for. Tisk tisk. If I find a new place I’ll update this review and let y’all know & the 5 stars is to throw off the Google algorithm and bump my review to the top so more people can see it but tbh I would rate this new golden gate ZERO stars.
