    Wonton Soup
    Michelle D.

    Meh. I stopped in for lunch yesterday with my daughter while shopping in the area. My daughter has gotten takeout from them a few times on her way home from work and warned me that it wasn't authentic Chinese. I was fine with that. Unfortunately, the food wasn't so-much Americanized as just bad. The lunch special goes through out the weekend and until 3 p.m. - so that's a plus. My daughter ordered the Sweet & Sour Chicken and I ordered the Hot & Spicy Chicken. Both of us ordered the Wonton Soup, instead of an egg roll. It comes with fried rice. The soup broth was bland and the meat inside the wonton was a weird brown color. Not sure what was in it. My daughter's Sweet & Sour Chicken was the standard found at these types of places. My Hot & Spicy Chicken was just sweet & sour sauce with a squirt of sriracha in it. It was super, super sweet and tasted awful. I didn't finish it. The service was really quick and friendly. And the lunch specials are cheap.

    Our first time here and it was amazing. Best Chinese we've had in years. Everything was piping off and fresh. I ordered the chicken fried rice and then vegetable egg foo young. The chicken is not dried out and it is not cubed. It is more shredded. My husband ordered the moo goo chicken huge chicken amounts on both . We will be back many time

    If you like heavy batter and no veges order the sweet n sour chicken.

    Price was reasonable for lunch. I may have told them how I felt about the food had they asked.

    I honestly have no idea what the negative reviews are talking about. I've never had a bad Golden Chen experience, and I eat here fairly often. The food is tasty, the service is good. It's just overall a great experience

    If you're looking for traditional yummy Chinese food and tired of chain restaurants, you'll want to give Golden Chen a try. I miss the mom and pop Chinese restaurants I grew up with in Southern California. They do offer dine in option which I did tonight. The decor is sparse but clean. The menu has everything you could want from shrimp, pork, steak and chicken Entrees. I'm just beginning to taste their menu but the Jumbo shrimp and garlic combo platter was delicious and affordable. The service was good. Servers are attentive and smiling (under their masks). I was overall super impressed with the quality of the food for the price. I would highly recommend this establishment for dine in or take out. As we were eating in, I noticed how quickly they turned around the online orders. I will be ordering for sure going forward.

    Food was excellent. Didn't receive chicken egg roll. Have contacted PayPal. I'm sure it was just over looked.

    This is going to be a quick review since its an update…read more.. I drove almost 3 and a half hours total to get to this guys food truck this afternoon. If that doesnt say how good it is then let me summarize it a little bit. The lobster feels Fresh, the bread its the perfect ratio for the BIG amount of lobster that they put on them, awesome flavors, great service and the price even though at first glance you may say its a little up there... LOOK AT THE PICS! They dont shy on the lobster meat, its well worth it. 'You wont finish the roll and stay with bread on the hand with no lobster, you may finish it and then use the fork for the lobster that fell on the plate' Highly recommend them!

    I was super excited to check out this newest addition to the food truck scene. They offer Seafood…read moreand Italian cuisine that is native to Connecticut, which I moved here from. My first experience was so good, I have been back several more times. Just a great family owned business. Lets talk about the Lobster roll. I am partial to the CT style, which is with butter. Their version was amazing. The roll was done just right. The lobster was high quality meaty chunks and there was plenty of it. It was cooked just right, tender and not rubbery! It comes with a side of Chips. My second try was the Meatball grinder. This was heaven. The meatballs and sauce are fantastic. Again, great bread too! Also comes with a side of chips. Now when I saw they had Hummel Hot Dogs, a New Haven CT Staple, I about lost it. They even had the correct bun, perfectly toasted. Its all about those little details! I enjoyed mine with kraut and cheese! Next up, the clam chowder... it had a nice smoky flavor to it. Finally, the baked Ziti and side of meatballs, which comes with Italian bread and butter. This sauce is "lick your plate clean" worthy. The pasta was al dente and again, these meatballs, omg. They still have several more items I need to try and ive seen some test menu items that are hopefully coming up that look so good! Okay so get the point? If you are craving some real seafood or Italian here in the Midwest, this is where you need to be! Follow them on their Facebook or on Streetfinder to see upcoming locations! They also offer catering!

    Oh. My. Gosh. SO so good…read more We started with the lavender lemonade mocktail -- which I absolutely added tequila to -- and it was smooth, refreshing, and dangerously delicious. 10/10 would order again exactly the same way. For appetizers, we got the whipped feta. Delicious, creamy, and perfect for sharing -- but fair warning: avoid the peppers if you're not into a little kick. They sneak up on you! My friend and I split the house salad and WOW. A complete showstopper. So fresh, the vinaigrette was bright and delightful, and those fresh bacon bits? Chef's kiss. It's rare that a house salad stands out like that, but this one absolutely did. Now let's talk about the prime rib. I typically do not like steak or prime rib... but our waitress recommended it as the best thing on the menu, and honestly the Yelp photos had already convinced me. When I tell you it was BOMB -- I mean it. So tender. So flavorful. Perfectly cooked. Paired with broccolini and mashed potatoes, it was a whole experience. To end the night, we shared the apple tart with cinnamon ice cream -- warm, sweet, comforting, and the perfect finish to an already amazing meal. Overall, this was a fantastic dining experience from start to finish. Great service, incredible food, and such a vibe. I cannot wait to come back.

    It was good, the menu is somewhat lackluster but what they did have (and of what I ate) was good…read more I don't like that the buffet doesn't include the price of drinks. That seems like a gimmick to make this buffet appear cheaper than others when in reality it is about the same price with less selection. The place wasn't busy on a Saturday at lunch. They had one sushi area, small in size tucked away in the corner but I didn't try that because I feel sushi is the devil's work :) The buffet consisted of 3 rows with each side having their own food item. Some food tags (the little cards taped on the glass above the food that helps us identify what the heck we are looking at) was missing or misplaced. One row consisted of fruit and desserts. The other two was the lunch/dinner food. The honey chicken was very small and hard. The fried rice was phenomenal. The crab rangoon was cream cheese wontons. Maybe it was a case of a misplaced food card I talked about earlier but they were still delicious. The egg rolls was good with an exception of the vegetable one, it was bad. The chicken and broccoli (I assume that's what it was because of the abundance of broccoli but the card was gone so I am unsure), it was just bad because the broccoli was far too hard and way too large. I am one of those weirdos that like raw broccoli but this was huge cuts that, honestly, was borderline offensive. The pot stickers, the pork on a skewer stick, was good. Other chinese restaurants have better but it wasn't bad here. Just overcooked and needed a better sauce. The mushrooms was really good. Perfectly cooked and the sauce was great. My husband and our daughter liked the salmon but I didn't try it because I hate too fishy fish flavors. The desserts was our 2 kids favorite, of course. I think they probably tried one of everything with an exception of the weird slug looking jello-y banana thing they had. It was very unappealing looking sitting there sad while jiggling around on it's tray hoping someone would be wild enough to try it. So, my brave husband did and he immediately made a face. The little cup desserts was cute, our son liked the chocolate one but the strawberry didn't seem to go over well with either kid. I tried a small taste of one of theirs and noped it right back onto my daughters plate. The pairs was delicious. Overall, not a bad buffet but not the best. Good for when you want a less busy buffet to enjoy the bare bones of what Chinese food has to offer. Still don't like the drink not being included in the price though.
