had a very disappointing experience here. The food had an unpleasant taste and seemed poorly prepared, to the point that I couldn't finish my meal. I was hoping for much better, especially since it's a local restaurant. I think there is room for improvement in the quality of the ingredients, seasoning, and overall preparation. I hope the owners take customer feedback seriously and make changes, because I'd like to see this place succeed and provide better food for the community. PLEASE HURRY AND FIX THIS!! WE NEED GOOD LOCAL CHINESE!!!! read more

Food quality is extremely poor. Customer service on the phone is also poor when taking orders.

Very good Chinese takeout place. They do all the regular Chinese takeout items quite well. Everything was tasty. We will go back.

This place is a hit or miss, sometimes you get good food, other times not so good. I wish they would stay more consistent.

The lady is very rude in the front. Why offer free coupons if you don't honor them? She walked off while we weren't finished ordering and charged us more than what the prices listed are. We asked for extra sauce she said she put it on there and there is nothing at all. ON TOP of not honoring the coupons we asked to use that are on the actual menus. We will NOT be back. read more

I travel from Florence and this is by far the best Chinese in the area. I'm not sure if they are under new management however the owner is polite and kind. The food is amazing. I highly suggest this place. I normally order chicken broccoli, crab Rangoon with pork fried rice and it's always great. I have had their wings and they are good and I do wish the bbq ribs were a bit more saucy but the food quality still is great for the area. read more

Was on the hunt for boba and did have a craving for Chinese, which is next door to the boba place... boba place was closed for the day :[... anywho!? I ordered a lot: Sweet and sour pork with pork fried rice: bite size servings and the pork fried rice wasn't dry. There was a good amount of flavor and wasn't overly seasoned, which is what I prefer. Egg Drop Soup: light, fragrant, and with a hint of ginger. It was really good, for how cold it was out. Scallion Pancakes: were a little burned/overcooked and a bit oily. Not sure if this is how it's normally, but it was still tasty with the sauce. It wasn't totally a ruin. Finally, the reason why I hunt for Chinese, FRIED CRAB RANGOON!!! Packed with flavor and wasn't just cream cheese. Thank goodness. This is my new joint/jam. read more

The food is without question the best anywhere in the Burlington/Columbus area. The dumplings are more filling than dough with a lot of flavor. The food is always fresh and the staff is incredibly friendly and attentive. This has become our go-to spot for Chinese. read more

Just order from there for the first time. Purchased Chicken Lo Mein.They charged $7.00 BEFORE I saw the size. Will not be returning. read more

Gold Garden - Chicken Lo Mein. They charged $7.00 for this BEFORE I saw the size. That's ridiculous. - Chinese Near Me - Columbus, New Jersey

delicious food, wonderful kind service ! the food was ready so quick, and the people inside were so nice.

Even when you order a huge portion, the food seems to always come really quickly. Even though it's quick, it's great! I've been here countless times with my friends and family. I would recommend the chicken with broccoli with fried rice. It's a nice spot for Chinese food. read more

Food was fresh and done in 10 minittttttt!!!actually was my first time so I only tried the General Tso Chicken combo. It was a great amount of chicken and the fried rice included was very tasty. I LOVE that they actually use bean sprouts and fresh ingredients. Nothing worse than greasy Chinese food... and even though it's a fried dish essentially, it was spot on.. all over good job and friendly service. Prices are same as any other Chinese restaurant. You can literally see the area the chef cooks in and it appeared to be clean at pickup. Again, first time. I'll follow up if anything changes read more

The lady was so rude to my mom, I wouldn't recommend this place. Terrible customer service. She was simply asking her a question and the lady gave her attitude. read more

Good food and prices, nice people who owns this business. My husband and son love their Fried pork rice and Sweet and sour chicken. I like the chicken with cashews dinner. Small but cute place to eat. read more

If you're looking for NY style Chinese food in South Jersey, Gold Garden is the place you're looking for. Chicken wings were fried to golden perfection, BBQ Ribs were very tasty and meaty, Shrimp Egg Foo Young was extremely good and excellent gravy to go with! Definitely my "go-to" Chinese takeout restaurant when working on the road in the Florence, NJ area. read more

I found this place by accident but I love the Asian style ginger infused fried chicken wings! I stop here every time I am in the vicinity and order the moderately priced food! I have yet to explore the rest of the menu but I look forward to it! read more

Gold Garden - Good chicken wings! - Chinese Near Me - Columbus, New Jersey

Gold Garden is a middle of the road Chinese/American shop in the Homestead Plaza II, in Columbus, NJ. It has 5 tables for those choosing to eat in. The front of the house is a large counter where the wife of this H & W team holds court with efficiency and a smile. The menu is what you would expect. My Sesame Chicken was served on a plate (rather than in Styrofoam), with Fried/White/Brown rice options, as well as soup or soda. At $5.65 it was one of the better prices I have seen for this luncheon combo. Taste-wise, it was okay, with a nice pile of chicken breaded, fried, and smothered in semi-sweet goo. You know ... the way you have seen it a million times. Plenty of rice made earlier in the day. The plaza where it is located also has ice cream and cupcake stores right next door, for those seeking things from all the nutritious food groups. Luckily, the cupcake shop is closed Monday and Tuesday. Temptation is everywhere. read more

Gold Garden - Quick weeknight supper - Chinese Near Me - Columbus, New Jersey

Very well prepared Chinese food with great vegetables. Their Chicken and snow peas included a mix of vegetables that were outstanding. Very friendly front staff and will prepare and add off menus items at request. The quantity of the large size is sufficient for two with enough left overs for another meal. This is a great take out Chinese food place as we live near by and have frequented the Gold Garden on several occasions for tasty meals. read more

Looking for some yummy food after a visit to a winery ! Coming from an Asian ( Pacific Islander ), not a good choice to stop and eat . It's hard to find a bad Chinese place , but after sitting here , I had to take my food to go to avoid being rude. We ordered the sesame chicken and fried chicken combo meals. The chicken tasted as if it was old,frozen , and fried too fast . The egg roll had a thick layer of wrapper and also tasted frozen . I haven't been to a Chinese place (coming from a girl who always gets a side of white vinegar ) that did not have white vinegar . We tried to give a fast food Chinese restaurant in NJ ,a try ! Philly has spoiled us ! read more

The food was horrible and I was over charged . Ordered 3 chicken wing appetizers, 2 small fried rice and small Kung pao chicken and I was charged $45. I'll never order from them again. read more

So so good. We just ordered beef and broccoli, general Tso, and sesame chicken with egg rolls. Delicious!! And they had a great setup for Covid, they have a glass shield at the register and take a tray for payments so it's hands free. I love this place. read more

This place is a great value!!! For a paltry sum of $5.45, I got about 20 pieces of sweet and sour pork, soup, rice, those fried noodle thingys, and a fortune cookie. The food was tasty, but not extraordinary. For finer Chineese dining, I would recommend Asian House in nearby Florence, but this good take out. Also, the staff the was friendly. The woman who took my order was polite and the food was done within the ten minute window I was quoted. I will be back. read more

Fast friendly service. Clean. Reasonable prices, the food was good, hot and fresh. It's my second visit, I'll definitely be back. read more

I've gotten take out from Gold Garden about a half dozen times, just to make sure that my assumptions were accurate. And I've come to the same conclusion every time, so here it is. The food is middle of the road. It's not the greatest, but it's by far not the worst. I've gotten some kind of lo mein every time I went and it's inconsistent. Sometimes it was really good and others it was "meh" and had a funny after taste. The same for any shrimp or beef dish. Chicken has been consistently good however, as are the egg rolls, wonton soup, dumplings and pork dishes. One thing that has been overly consistent however is the good customer service. They are very friendly at Gold Garden and very quick with your order. They don't stand out as the best or worst for Chinese food, so if you keep moderate expectations you will be fine. read more

Great customer service followed up with good non oily food. Ordered Dinner special and it came out good and fast. read more

This place has been my number 1 for 7 years. Food is always on the mark. Yep is telling me i have to add more text. This place is great. Eat here. If you don't like it, I'll pay the bill. read more

So I got some takeout Chinese food from here not too long ago. Food was good to very good, not excellent, but staff was super friendly, price was super cheap and packaging in the to-go containers was very well done. Definitely a great place for takeout. read more

This restaurant has great take out and fast service. Their prices are cheap and their food is great!

To start, the food itself was mediocre in the way all american Chinese food is. Lacked any great flavor, salty, and mostly brown. Bonuses were that the tofu in the vegetarian tofu and vegetables was a fairly good size, not overdone, and actually tofu- not bean curd. To an extent it was potentially fresher, in the sense of the vegetable's colorings, than some of the other local Chinese places. Three of our dishes asked for the omission of onions, yet only one of the three dishes actually arrived without onions. The breaking point for us was that two of the dishes had strands of the same sized black hair (those of us eating were blonde). We called to tell- not in an effort for any compensation- but more in an attempt to notify the owner/workers so that they can take measures to prevent this in the future. One dish with one hair may have been understandable, but two contaminated dishes clearly shows they are not taking proper sanitary precautions. It makes me wonder how else the food in contaminated in a way we cannot see... The woman we spoke to was very apologetic and offers us free dishes in compensation, but this was not a consolation. We can not bring ourselves to accept anything as we will not be eating there again. read more

Real average... nothing outstanding. But better than most Chinese restaurants in the area. At least the General's Chicken was meat and not fat balls. Egg rolls were fair. Boneless ribs were mediocre. We read that this place was excellent and decided to try it. Unfortunately, we should have looked at the date on the reviews. This place may have been better two years ago or maybe the reviewers had never tasted really good Asian food. Anyway, we may or may not go back... probably not. There is much better if you want to drive a bit further south. read more

One of the cleanest Chinese places I have found in the area. The food is good and the people are friendly. I love their affordable lunch specials! read more

They were polite and kind, but I cannot give this place a good grade. The Szechuan beef was nit very good.

This Chinese restaurant has been my go to for years. Even though there's a Chinese restaurant two minutes from my house my husband and I still drive over 20 mins to Gold Garden. It's definitely worth the drive each and every time and I've never been disappointed with my order. Pork dumpling are homemade and amazing and a must have (the sauce is a delicious combo). Must try the crab rangoons and the general tsos chicken!! read more

This place has become a staple for my husband and I. Every couple weeks we order a chicken w broccoli and split it. It's the perfect serving size for two and we don't feel guilty wasting money as the prices are very reasonable. The food tastes clean and healthy. Staff is always very nice. read more

Our go to for Chinese despite others being closer. Food usually tastes fresh. But recently we had an issue with food being over cooked and rice being hard ( like old rice or maybe bottom of the rice cooker). Eating there is not to bad portion sizes are huge if you eat in. Hoping that the last couple of orders was a fluke. Let you all know what how it goes ;) read more

The sesame chicken tasted fishy, the fried rice only had onion mixed in, dumplings had more fat than meat, the steamed chicken tasted rubbery. Not much flavor in any of the food. Would not recommend. read more

Always my go to for Chinese food. Prices are reasonable and food is amazing. The staffs are very friendly and engaged and service is fast. 5/5 definitely recommend. read more

We tried Gold Garden a few weeks back and we are now hooked. We live two towns over and we still take the extra time to drive there to pick-up diner, even though we have a Chinese restaurant in walking distance from our house. Everything they cook tastes fresh, not frozen, and the fried foods do not taste greasy at all. They are our #1 recommendation for anyone looking for good fresh Chinese food. My daughter even likes their food more than PF Changs! read more
