I don't know his name & he is always there to take my order! He is patient with me, & has good suggestions for trying something new. Great Food & great service, thank you Golden Bowl for being in Bartlett read more

This is the go-to Chinese place for my wife's family, for as long as I can remember (my daughter grew up with this food). They follow the standard suburban Chinese fast-food sterotypes: carry-out only, should use a coupon to get 'something' free, large portions overstuffing the takeout containers, can be very greasy but can feed a large group of people inexpensively, and tries to cover all the styles (Cantonese, Mandarin, Szechuan) but in reality it is one style (Americanized Chinese). This time, we got carryout for the main staples (noodles and rice and soup), since we had the main courses already home-made. Mom's coupon was for free large chicken fried rice (with $25 purchase). Also ordered shrimp fried rice ($11.25), large egg drop soup ($4.75), large sweet and sour soup ($5.25), and order of house pan fried noodles ($11.25). All the portions were large, and more than enough to feed 6 adults. The taste was fine. One thing to note is that for their pan fried noodles, they use a thin type of chow mein...we haven't been able to find another restaurant that uses this style...whenever we've ordered pan fried noodles, it is thick and crunchy (see La Choy brand) and expect the sauce to soften it. Here, it's good (and absolutely fabulous if the sauce is on point...which can be hit/miss). read more

Pretty good for Chinese food. They been around a long time. Pretty standard for Chinese food with price and portions. Taste is pretty standard as well. read more

I walked in during lunch and got the kung pao chicken combo with chicken fried rice. It was ready in just 10 minutes. The portions were very big and the food was very tasty. I eat a lot of chinese food and this was one of the best. I'll be coming back read more

we have ordered frequentl, but this last experience was awful, food took over 45 minutes to be prepared, was greasy and cold. Also, the staff on duty was aloof and didn't seem to care about quality or the fact that if you use your "discount" on the General Tsao you don't get any white rice. So after returning to ask about the white rice...was told that's an extra $3 are you serious? I'll will NEVER be back. read more

Dunno about this place .. I go there to place a to go order ,then tells me out of pork ...only have chicken and fish ...so I say ok .. then sweet and sour chicken lunch special....oh we don't sell lunch meals . Only entry sizes ....we've been there a few times since they are close by and they are hit or miss ...sometimes real good other times not so good .. read more

I used to get the lunch special after school in elementary and it was always so delicious! Chicken, fried rice, and broccoli!

great food, we used to live in bartlett order all the time. moved 35 miles away and we still order there because where we live now they don't know how make good chinese food we tried all of the take out places and none of them are as good as golden bowl!! we go out of our way for thEIR food! AND IT IS STILL HOT WHEN WE GET HOME. read more

Love this place. I've tried a few others around where I live but it has failed my expectations. The sauces and seasonings they used are quite flavorful. Wish they would include chili sauce and soy sauce with dinner order. read more

Szechuan beef it's always tender and consistent. Egg foo young is like I grew up on. Yummy!

The Golden Bowl has become our go-to for cheap Chinese food near the house that serves up hearty quantities and doesn't lack in the quality department. It's a carryout place set at the back of large, but not quite thriving strip mall. It's two minutes from my house and I am constantly wishing for a boost of life back into this spot. The Golden Bowl is a start. Their staff members are quite nice and helpful. They encourage coupons and have even told me where to find them from time to time. The portions are large enough to share or make multiple meals off of if you will reheat Chinese food. I tend to find their dishes best the first time, so I'm happy to share. Their prices are really reasonable compared to the other Chinese/Japanese/Sushi spot in town. I love the other spot, but my wallet can feel the difference. My only real complaint is that we've ordered meals that come with a can of pop. They always forget the pop and unless I remind my son or husband to specifically ask for it, we usually miss out. read more

On top of the typical Chinese favorites, the menu also has specialty dishes designed by the chef. After talking to the chef turns out he has an extensive background on southeast Asian Cuisine specialty in Malaysian food. I took his recommendations see photos attached read more

Good food, awesome amount. Always had it taste good. We get sesame tofu & orange chicken

After waiting almost 2 hours and 50 bucks later the food arrived. We ordered vegetable fried rice that was burnt. Ordered chicken strips and they were rubbery. The steak noodles were bland. It's not the first time this place has let us down but today it put the icing one the cake. read more

I really enjoy almost all the dishes here. This is my fav Chinese restaurant in this area! I love the garlic sauce chicken and beef and broccoli! Thanks for being open during this time!! read more

If I could rate this place ZERO I would. The worst customer service ever! We ordered food at 6 pm tonight, at 730 I called and they said it left with the driver. At 820 I called again, they said they couldn't find history of our order and he'd call the driver.... called ya back laughing and said he didn't know what happened maybe the driver gave it to the wrong house. And I said ok so now what, and he told me he didn't know, but they're too backed up to remake the food. So when I asked for. Refund on my card he told me to dispute it with the bank. Unbelievable. Absolutely the worst service! read more

I really wanted this place to be great! I love the idea of great small mom & pop family restaurants and always am on the look out for new ones to try, support, and patron but unfortunately this place not only failed but they are so expensive. Started with my first attempt at ordering last night 45 minutes before they closed when they picked up and hung up on me. I thought maybe it was a mistake so I called back [Strike 1!] and took 5 rings before someone picked up and just answered "hello" (or what sounded like that in broken English). [Strike 2!] Today I gave them one last benefit of the doubt. I ordered the Honey Walnut Shrimp. A simple dish to make yet they really messed it up. First off that's all the guy at the counter was a total D!#& with nasty energy, I ordered and the bill was $17...... Holy smokes! For one dish? I stayed calm and was thinking this comes in a dinner portion only so maybe it will be a big dish?! NOPE! Tiny portion, tasted sour, extremely watery, over priced, and the complete experience was enough! Never again. I rather go to Panda Express (sadly). Same portion will be a fraction of the price and quality / taste would be satisfactory which is leaps and bounds better than what I was subjected to. Waste of money and my time! I want my money back. read more

I order take out from Golden Bowl from time to time. Past dishes I've tried I had no complaints of. This time I ordered walnut shrimp and Mongolian chicken. The walnut shrimp was too watery and the Mongolian chicken was 90% onions and 10% chicken. I wouldn't order these dishes from here again but I will come back for the ones I am used too. read more

We ordered food yesterday and it was just flavorless. I mean really flavorless to the point where we ended up ordering Domino's instead. I was really upset with having to spend the extra money. I asked for mild spicy and there was no spice at all. I asked for chili packets or hot oil sauce and got nothing. I was really disappointed with the food. I wish I would've read the reviews before hand. Never again. read more

DO NOT GO HERE. I ordered take out and found a huge ROACH!!! I called the owner to come pick up his food and refund my money. He didn't even apologize, and said he'll take care of it later. I was appalled. I drove myself back to this joint, and all he said was hold on one minute very very busy. I was disgusted. I will be calling the health department on this place. I'm completely DISGUSTED! read more

Golden Bowl - Roach in my dinner. Absolutely DISGUSTED!! This is only one ROACH in my meal, imagine how many more ROACHES ARE IN GOLDEN BOWLS KITCHEN!!! - Chinese Near Me - Bartlett, Illinois

Golden bowl is two minutes away from my house, but I will never go back again after tonight. My husband usually orders for me off the app and is able to modify my order perfectly fine. Tonight I called in and ordered a dinner special that I get all the time but with no meat. Just vegetable lo mein and vegetable fried rice without egg, and I asked if I could substitute spring roll instead of egg roll since eggrolls have meat in them. How hard is that? They called me back after I ordered and I was told the chef won't modify my order at all. I said my husband literally orders it that way all the time and they make it for me, but they simply replied the chef won't make modifications like that. The world does not revolve around meat eaters, eating meat is not healthy for you. Eating meat causes cancer. Why are you punishing the people who are trying to eat healthy? Don't you know we are living through a pandemic and it's important to eat your vegetables to keep up your immunity. But you're going to punish me for being a vegetarian? Your rules are unfair and are making people unhealthy. It's too bad you had to blow off a good customer, you're obviously struggling since your prices have gone up so much. read more

First of all I ordered Beef with broccoli and got some kind of chicken that had more bones and tendons than meat and 2 pieces of the broccoli that was like trying to bite into a spare tire. I ordered noodles as the side, I could not even choke down one bite I had to spit it out it tasted like a dirty burnt pan. I have had bad luck here before but the guys talked me into it . I don't know how they keep there doors open. read more

I think their cook quit! We ordered from there tonight and the food just didn't taste right. Our boneless ribs were BURNED and inedible! They are normally very good! This time they were oily and as if they dipped jerky in oil and burned the sauce. Terrible. The fried rice was different too....no flavor! What happened???? Then I tried to call and no one answered. I guess they went home early. DON'T SEND FOOD IF YOU BURN IT! read more

I ordered and I threw it out. My review of Orange chicken is it is stiffly fried breaded chicken soaked in oil and a spicy sweet ,orange sauce. Crap Fried Rice Crap Lo Mein Eggrolls tastes like fried peanut butter and cabbage. For those educated about food, this is all GMO food. read more

Love this place! Great Chinese at a low price. They have gluten free fried rice too. (No soy sauce). They always have great coupons as well. read more

My husband recently moved to Bartlett and have tried a few of the local and seemingly beloved Chinese restaurant and haven't been impressed. Well.we were very impressed with our meal tonight. I ordered at the restaurant and the young lady who waited on me was friendly and helpful. My meal was made very quickly. We ordered crab rangoon (good), kung pao chicken (excellent ) and sesame chicken (the best we have ever had). Everything was fresh not too salty or sweet. We received a free fried rice and it was ok but since it was free it was fine. Even the white rice was light a fluffy as opposed to oily and dense. We will be back for sure. read more

Typical hole in the wall type of place for cheap Chinese take out. Ordered three items...they kind of all sucked badly...maybe I ordered the wrong things?? Very disappointed that I ignored my instincts (not to sound discriminatory, but how often is "cheap" Chinese mimicked by non Asians actually good?) and trusted fellow yelpers. Food was like something I would eat at a Chinese restaurant in the middle of nowhere like upper Wisconsin, middle of Missouri, in Indiana...catch my drift? read more

Food was ok. Nothing special. Ordered House Chow Mein and they forgot the noodles. And everything else was soaked in too much sauce. Also, I was told pick up would be ready in 20 minutes but it took 45. read more

I usually don't write bad reviews..but when you r family an your dog get sick..there is a problem..the chicken in the fried rice must have been spoiled..I have ordered quite a while from this place but when I called the owner he was very rude and offered no compensation..won't ever order from them again..beware read more

The worst Chinese food I ever had spent $60 on a meal I wouldn't give my dog. Pot stickers were raw egg rolls had no meat beef an chicken was like rubber crab rangoons were empty wanted to return the food for our money back and the guy on the phone told me no refunds he didn't even try to make things right don't go here if they had a negative for the stars I would rate them -5 read more

Got lunch for my husband and I we got beef with broccoli and shrimp with chicken lunch specials. Absolutely no flavor I had to use sesame oil and soy sauce ate not even a quarter and threw it out. The egg roll tasted like it was soaked in butter and not in a good way. read more

I had a standard order of $40 dollars of Chinese food. After an hour of waiting for my food to arrive I called to find out what the issue was. My food was still there sitting not delivered. I had called to have my order cancelled as I was not interested in getting cold Chinese food as it would have been an hour and a half before they finally arrived if they left immediately. After telling them this they still insisted on delivering my food. At this point I kept reiterating that I was not interested in cold Chinese food and would like my order cancelled and refund to my credit card. I was hung up after this and had to call back to talk with another individual to agreed to cancel my order. I will wait to see if my charges are actually canceled as I don't think they have good business acumen. read more

Disgusting, save your money and yourself from illness. Unfortunately stopped on my way home from work, didn't read reviews prior to ordering, and live a half hour away....lesson learned. Opened up pork lo mein, family favorite, and were hit with fumes of meat past its prime, taste confirmed said smell and we all thought the garbage disposal was going to throw it up as we washed it down the sink. Rest of food was barely palatable. read more

Cant give them no stars apparently. Used to love this place, great food, fast delivery then i got aBUG in my rice. Their solution. .charge me a second time. When i got upset about it, their solution credit me half of the second charge. A huge black crawly bug in my white rice! And they charged me an additional 1.5 times after a week of this headache i finally just had my bank reverse all charges. I never received an appology let alone a refund. Im very glad me and my kid didnt get some terrible flu or sickness. WHAT IF MY KID ATE THAT?!?! Worse is i was PREGNANT and they acted like it was my fault. Id give them 5 stars if they didnt give me bugs in my food. Its not like it was 20$ worth of food. It was over $75 and my kid was hungry! read more

This place deserves ZERO stars! The people are rude and they always get orders wrong then never admits their mistakes. On several occasions I was given the wrong order and they insisted that it was the food that I ordered. I'm a vegetarian but they still insisted that I ordered sweet and sour chicken and shrimp fried rice and didn't want to cook what I actually did order. I couldn't believe how argumentative the staff is. I used to eat here awhile ago but it was under different management then. I decided to give them one more chance because it's on my drive home from work. This was the last straw when the guy said they were charging me extra for ingredients that normally come standard. When I arrived and questioned why it was extra the guy that took my order kept saying he never said that( like I was lying). I was going to let that go but then he gave me a container full of eggs stating that it was my veggie fried rice. The guy was smirking as he continued to insist that's what I ordered then tried to make it seem like I was the one with the problem... like I I was being picky " so let me get this straight you want the eggs mixed with the rice?" Is what he kept asking me. It was like it was a joke to him. I gave up even though I was starving and requested my money back. He took 10 minutes to refund my money then threw the receipt at me after he saw me take pictures of the food. Unbelievable!! Customer service unacceptable! NEVER going back despite how convenient it is!!! read more

Bad.....the Mu Shu Chicken tasted like it had been burned. The serving of pancakes was very generous. Unfortunately, they were either stale or over heated. More than half of them broke when picked up. Rolling them was impossible & the dish couldn't be eaten as intended. This was the first time ordering from them & will probably be my last. I ordered through Grub Hub & will see how they handle this. read more
