This place is amazing! Been searching high and low for a decent honey walnut shrimp like the one I was spoiled with back home. I had yet to come even close and was giving up hope. Then I ordered it from Gold Chef! It was perfect! The shrimp are huge so they're actually prawns, the breading is thick but airy and crisp - not greasy - and it comes with roasted walnuts, fresh broccoli, perfectly steamed rice, and to-die-for sauce! I was so happy to find a dish so similar to the one I loved at home - AND it was a huge portion for a low price. YASSSSSS! Even better? They are great with substitutions and/or modifications - I have a friend with an onion allergy and they're always really careful with her food and it comes out exactly how she wanted and tasting great! They also have a 'lighter fare' with great options like Shrimp with Brown Sauce with Brown Rice, Beef with Asparagus, etc. I liked those two! That was 7+ years ago and I've been back a million times - both to dine in and to have delivered. No matter if it's fine in or delivery, my food is always on point. Always hot and delicious. Some other faves are the House Wonton Soup, Salt & Pepper Calamari, Crab Puffs, Seafood Family, Pork Dumplings (steamed or fried - both great), Curry Noodles, Kung Pao Shrimp, House Lo Mein, Beef With Broccoli, Honey Chicken (I specified white meat and they were happy to oblige), House Fried Rice, Shrimp Fried Rice, and Mu Shu Chicken. Pretty much can't go wrong! The service is great, too! Always the same friendly faces. When I come in, Chee (sp?) always remembers me warmly and when I call for delivery she remembers my order once she sees my address!! It's nice to be remembered and appreciated for a long history of patronage. Truly a lost art, if you ask me. She seats you and also serves, and is quick to refill drinks and bring whatever you may need including to-go boxes and to-go cups full of whatever you were drinking! read more

Huge portions and delicious! Sliced pork was tender and flavorful. Combination egg foo young and lo mein outstanding

We've been going to Gold Chef for about ten years and have always loved the food, especially their egg rolls. I moved here from NJ in 1982 and Gold Chef's egg rolls were the best and closest to the ones I grew up eating back East. Tonight we ordered Wor Won Ton soup and egg rolls for pickup. What we got was regular Won Ton soup (just broth and won tons) that was overly salty, and the egg rolls were small, had a totally different kind of wrapper, with barely any filling and they were overcooked. This has NEVER happened before with our orders from there. I'm hoping this was just a one time issue. If it happens again we'll have to find a new Chinese place. read more

Pretty good food, we ordered sweet and sour chicken which was crispy and tender, I also tried the honey shrimp which was crispy and moist, sauce wasn't overly sweet. I did Oder the crab puffs, they were fresh and had a hint of sweetness. Delivery was supposed be about 45 minutes, needless to say they were at my house in 20 minutes. Overall I liked the food and will order from them again.. read more

I am a long time customer who just called in to order and you could not understand me at all. I literally had to spell each number and letter of my address. You should consider someone else answering your phone because that is frustrating! I hung up and will no longer order. read more

Gold Chef's curry shrimp is absolutely delicious. It's loaded with onions, bell pepper, carrots, water chestnuts and potatoes, all simmered in perfectly blended, rich curry sauce. I added mushrooms to mine, because I'm obsessed with them. The restaurant is clean, well-appointed, and intimately lit. The woman with the asymetrical cut is always pleasant and a joy to deal with, and she's prompt and courteous as well. If you're in the Chandler area, and you're looking for good Asian food with fair prices, Gold Chef is it...far better than P.F. Chang's and a million times better than that bland tasting Panda Express. read more

Gold Chef - Gold Chef Curry Chicken is Delicious! - Chinese Near Me - Chandler, Arizona

Meh...it's pretty decent food and all but there is better to be had in this area. The people were fairly friendly but could care less about being very personable and having a conversation. The biggest issue with this place was how disgusting the bathroom was. Made me with I hadn't closed the door behind me! So gross. Hasn't been cleaned in at least a year or two. I can imagine the kitchen! read more

Amazingly, I didn't think this would have any reviews since it still had it's Grand Opening sign out front. Oddly enough, everyone that also reviewed this place only has 1 review to their name. Maybe they made their account because they loved this place so much!? Interesting story on this review. I wanted to get something to eat and I was texting everyone I knew to see if they wanted to meet up somewhere. Nobody responded. However, I was hungry and didn't feel like cooking. So I started driving home to go and look on Yelp for somewhere new to try. Upon my exit I saw a homeless lady and thought... what the hell, why not try a new place with someone new? I wanted company and I'm sure she'd like a meal. So, I turned around and asked her to join me for dinner, which she accepted. So with that said, this review is for both of us - Thanks April. I got the Chicken with Garlic Sauce. April got the General Tso's Chicken. Portions were large enough that neither of us finished our meals. Food was good, but nothing ***spectacular***. Bottom line, would I go back? Absolutely. The service was a little quirky. We were pretty much the only ones in there at first and we were asked every 2-3 minutes if we were doing OK. Not a big deal, but I am sure some would find that annoying. On the bright side, my lemonade was never more than half empty (and I drink like a camel at a watering hole). As another Yelper mentioned, the egg rolls were good. In fact, I may venture to say that they were some of the best I've ever had. They tasted very natural - aka, very green. It was a nice welcome to having ones have mushy lettuce. April gives the place a 4/5. I give it a 4-4.5/5. read more

I usually look at both sides of the table and I have to say I like skepticism. So with that said I like what Lester had to say. I don't necessarily agree that quantity and good quality control equal fabulous food. Taste is the biggest factor as well and something you need to take into consideration. We blew in here with the storm and the lady said hello and seated us in the small restaurant seating area. This place is surprisingly a sit down server restaurant, even though it looks like a fast food type place. I ordered the vegetable lo-mein and the other diner with me ordered the beef with broccoli. For the price you do get a good portion size of lo-mein and beef. My dish was pretty spicy so there was no need to ask them to make it extra spicy. I detected a hint of spam essence in the noodle which turned me a little off of the dish. The other diner's food was also pretty spicy so if you are sensitive just make sure you ask them to not make your dish so spicy. The shopkeeper was very polite and came by ever so frequently to make sure that we were doing okay. Although I would not say this is the best ever, I will return to try something else and because the food and service is worth a second chance. They do delivery! read more

Been ordering from Gold Chef for at least the last year or so now and every experience has been pleasant. There were a few times where an order would come wrong, but they would always promptly fix the mistake! The staff is so friendly too; whenever I order, I get an excess of around $80 worth of food and they always box it up nicely for me and offer to open the door / offer to help carry the food - you just don't see that kind of consideration anymore. As far as the food goes, it tastes authentic to me and is always full of flavor - no complaints. Never had an order here that I didn't enjoy. Arizona isn't known for its amazing Chinese food, but I'm glad that Gold Chef can make me feel like a kid again and feel like I'm eating in my grandparents Chinese restaurant all over again. If you're looking for some decently priced, authentic, tasty Chinese food - then Gold Chef is the spot read more

I ordered the General Tso's chicken during the lunch special. It was only $5.95 it came with fried rice, a side of soup, an egg roll and a wonton. It was a good sized meal, you definitely get more than your money's worth. The food was tasty and I would come back again for the great deal and good food. read more

In Chandler, and you want great Chinese delivery? - this is the place! Scads of options, choices and flavours - always HOT, always FRESH, and always WAY too much to eat! Eat in or eat out - food will always be great! read more

Oil, oil, oil, and grease. That's what's on the menu. I asked for extra spicy and they soaked my dish in chili oil instead of adding extra jalapeños, which is what the dish is cooked with in the first place, not chili oil. The inflexible staff on the phone chose to defend their cooking method instead of ensuring my satisfaction. I'm in sales too and that's no way to retain customers. I won't return to this spot for the attitude, let alone the oil. read more

Gold Chef - Salt and Pepper Tofu - Chinese Near Me - Chandler, Arizona

Ordered through Grub Hub fully expecting the food to show up past the estimated time. Much to my surprise it showed up 45 minutes early steaming hot. The food itself was delicious and not overly soaked in the usual sauces. Crab puffs were not soggy at all and the filling was one of the best I have had recently. I would most definitely order from this place again. read more

Great food- beijing beef is a fam favorite! We have also used them to cater and portions are always so generous and prices are very affordable. They dont skimp on quantity at all! Efficient service! read more

This review deserves 0 stars but you have to give at least one. Worst customer service. One dish was too salt and unedible the other we found cardboard pieces in it. They provided no compensation for the cardboard in the food and came to our home to coGeneral Tso Chickenllect the salt unedible food. Unsure if we will be compensated for anything. The owner argued that "not there problem as they didn't see the cardboard themselves in the food" Kitchen not clean. Food not good and service worse read more

We love this close-by Chinese food! We do takeout from here all the time. It's really great. Highly recommend their appetizers (crab puffs, shrimp and beef skewers) and love the lo mein and Mongolian beef. read more

A badass hole in the wall joint. I come here and order from here every so often. I should have left a review sooner honestly. The food is great for the price. I can honestly say that the price is what has always sold me. I'm a cheap guy that tries or pretends to be on a budget most of the time. Customer service is pretty good. They deliver to you right off of the Yelp app, which is neat. I think its super convenient for a business to offer that, without having to download a separate app or order from their website. Gold Chef has synced it with Yelp, so ordering delivery or take out is a breeze. The orange chicken is my typical cliche way to go. Its a ton of food, and they don't go easy on the chicken. Its alot of rice and chicken (seriously). Food: 4/5 Price 5/5 Customer service 5/5 Restaurant cleanliness 4/5 I'll be back to try and get this to 5 stars :) read more

Amazing Chinese food! Love going here the staff is super friendly and helpful. I definitely recommend come here for the lunch special. The sweet and sour chicken is THE BEST!!! highly recommend read more

This is my favorite place to get Chicken and Broccoli as close to home (New Jersey) as possible. Pricing is not bad either. I recommend trying it. read more

We always order from here and they are always consistent. Got fresh food on time every time. Flavors are very good on all things. We've tried everything on the menu and can't ever seem to order the same thing. Thank you for giving us great food!!! -matt b read more

If you're looking for some quick and tasty take-out, golden chef is the way to go!! I like their garlic chicken, kung pao chicken and black pepper chicken. I eat here most days as I work nearby, and it's by far the best value. Lunch special is $6 and some change, full dinner is less than $10. Can't beat that! Try it out and you won't be disappointed. read more

This is really good Chinese food moved from Phoenix to chandler and was always looking for some good Chinese food and finally found a place!

This was the first time we ordered from here and we were both very pleased. We had a a Chicken Eggroll, shrimp fried rice with brown rice and an order of chicken with pan fried green beans and the fried rice. Portions were large and order was hot when I went in to pick it up. read more

Christmas Day: we arrived, the hostess was really rude, but we were hungry. We sat down and it was very cold inside. We should have left. We had to get her to order our food. The egg drop soup and spring rolls were good. My daughter ordered beef fried rice, the beef tasted stale we couldn't take another bite. I got schezwan chicken, and my rice never came out. We asked for the check and told her I was I unsatisfied. She responded the rice free! read more

What can i say. Very good food . Taste, portion sizes , haven't done me wrong yet. Will continue to keep coming back. Greg

Everything I got was amazing! Even the fried prawns on the appetizer menu were great eventho the breading was a lot....still taste great! The sesame chicken is amazing! And I had to get the spam musubi! They didn't give much sauce so I made my own, and im damn happy. Must try read more

We ordered delivery and appreciate the fast drop-off. Ordered the honey chicken dinner combination and the pan fried dumplings. Chicken was not overly sauced and just slightly sweet which I like because sometimes they can over due it with the honey. The combination comes with fried rice and egg roll. Rice was simple (no veggies) and the egg roll was meh. But the dumplings more than made up of it because they were terrific! read more

This little place is a gem. Service is great. The Fried Rice is amazing. Best fried rice I've found in the valley.

Avoid this place at all cost. We have ordered before and had decent service with a few issues mixed in. Tonight takes the cake. They took my order and told me 45 minutes. I called an hour later and I was told " they were probably right outside my door" after an hour and 20 minutes I called and was told I never ordered the food and she could "do me a favor" and make the food. I was then told I probably made a mistake and never ordered or possibly someone different took my order and then left. There are so many place you can get Chinese food from. Avoid this train wreck read more

Usually good, but struck out again. Food does not taste seasoned and seems like it has been sitting for a while. Sorry, we usually like this place. read more

I'd rate this 4.5 stars if I could. We shared two lunch specials that were very good especially for the price. First order was sweet and sour pork. Second order was shrimp egg foo young. Both came with fried rice, 1 crab puff and 1 egg roll included in the price. The pork was a bit over breaded for me but the taste was very good. Nice sauce just wish there were a few more veggies to go along with it. The shrimp egg foo young stole the show. Meal came with two large patties that were thick yet fluffy and I had shrimp in every bite!!!! One of the best EFY's I've ever had. Their brown gravy was a bit gelatinous but still tasty. Overall cost was $14 for so much food that was very good quality. We'll be back! read more

Nothing amazing in my opinion but good nonetheless. It's hard to find a 4/5 star Chinese delivery/takeout restaurant in this area in my opinion. But even though I am only rating this 3 stars it is one of the BETTER ones. For the price we payed we got a lot of food, we got enough food for a family but it was just two of us! They were very fast at completing our order which had me worried because a lot of these places that do Chinese food fast tend to lack on the small details that make it great but this place did it it good time and was pretty tasty. I'd recommend to someone that is looking to change up there Chinese take out spot, not a bad option. read more

I have eating at Gold Chef Chinese Restaurant for nearly five years now, and there is no other Chinese or any other restaurant in Chandler that compare to the food quality and professional attitude of the staff here. I have a great deal of respect for the staff here. They focus on quality service and to satisfy every customer. And sometimes no matter how hard they try to make you feel at home at their establishment, you cannot make everybody happy. I have never had any complaints from the the staff there. It is a great atmosphere and very stable. I strongly recommend trying Gold Chef out for yourself. You will not be disappointed. I enjoy it more and more when I come back here. I would not recommend any other place. Kevin McCombs read more

Very disappointed ! First time costumer- ordered online and it took 70 minutes to be delivered and I live 6 minutes from the restaurant Called and the lady was rude and short when asking how much longer I had to wait. Overpriced and not even very good- . read more

I had a phone order worth over $60, and the lady who was taking my order was so rude to me. I don't know if she was having a bad day or not but I can tell she was clearly in a bad mood because I was ordering so much food and she was getting a bit mixed up w the order so I tried to speak as clearly and articulate that I could. She then said I was the one who was confused and etc and I told her that I was sorry and that she was being rude and she started saying "No you are-" and I hung up. It was a shame because I was really looking forward to trying their food but good luck to anyone who has a big phone order. read more

We eat there about twice a month. Food is always hot and delicious! Owners are friendly and call us by name. Place is clean and service is excellent. we get thin noodles wtih pork shrimp chicken, etc. and egg rolls and beef on a stick.

Absolutely love this place. My roommate and I found it right before we moved. We've been looking a year since for it and I found it on yelp again. We recently went back to have some and it was great as per usual. Love the mei fun with shrimp. Their fried rice is good. Rolls good. Crab Rangoon good. It's a trip to get to but totally worth it read more

We've ordered here before.... This time it took an hour and a half. They are a block away. When I called the woman said 'Your food has already gone a long time ago' or something to that extent, and said there was nothing she could do about it. She also said when I called 30m earlier that the food was on its way. Ordered at about 6:40, it is 8:06 now. My girlfriend is a teacher and needs to be in bed soon and we haven't eaten. To any readers...calling doesn't seem to help either. read more
