Golden China

This quaint little Chinese take out restaurant at North Pointe has some stellar food offerings. The dishes are on the sweeter side but deliciously spicy at the same time. I always ask for food to be made spicier and hot oil is always offered. Quick and made to order, you can’t go wrong with Golden China for delicious take out to satiate any craving for Chinese food.

I used to like this place because it was really good, fast and very nearby. It seems that over time, the quality has gone down. Everything sort of tastes the same and bland even if you ask for spicy. Other than the Wonton soup which is really good, I've been disappointed. Last time my shrimp toast was burned and greasy and my main dish had very little other than over breaded chicken chunks and large hunks of green pepper. I hope they improve their food so I can go again.

This was my go-to place for Chinese food. The past few times I have purchased takeout the food has been lacking the delicious flavors that I love about Chinese food and the people rude. I overlooked the poor customer service but the last straw was the tasteless egg drop soup in my last order. My egg drop soup has at least the egg flavor. Com'on now!👎👎

Out of all the Chinese restaurants I’ve tried in Durham, this place had the lowest priced lunch specials. I got the twice cooked pork with a side of egg drop soup, and the variety of veggies in the entree was surprising. I also liked how the sauce wasn’t too overwhelming, and the pork was pretty good for the price. Only complaint that I had for the restaurant was that they put everything in a small paper bag, and the sauce from the container leaked all over the bag. Other than that, I was quite satisfied with the meal.

My co-workers suggested this restaurant as this one was my first experience. We ordered $60 of various items for take out. Upon arrival, the customer service was excellent. The previous Health Department Inspection score was a 96. While waiting for the order, looked like there is insufficient ventilation from the kitchen due to the discolored ceiling tiles in the seating area. The carpet in the restaurant needs TLC. It's a dive in a shopping center. I had ordered the beef and broccoli and it was a very large serving. Upon opening the box, the beef and broccoli did not pass the smell test...kind of smelled liked rancid oil. While the broccoli tasted okay, the beef was fatty and chewy. After a few bites, I tossed it in the trash to reduce the risk of my GI immediately purging what I just had eaten. My co-workers all liked their meals but mine was not good at all. I would not recommend this restaurant for lunch or dinner.
