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.

You're also not paying an ambiance tax here - and the menu reflects it. The pork snout was really good and the bok choy was delicious too! This is an absolute gem of a spot for authentic Chinese food and I'll definitely be back.

We planned to order off of their lunch menu, and split a bowl of noodles for her birthday. Chinese tradition is to eat noodles on birthdays, so we asked the server what she recommended. She told us they actually offer complimentary birthday noodles! We were so surprised; we'd never heard of anywhere doing that before. We ordered the Twice-Cooked Pork Lunch, Fish with Chili Bean Sauce Lunch, and the Birthday Noodles. With lunch, we were allowed to select an egg roll, egg drop soup, or hot and sour soup. We both opted for the hot and sour soup. Even without the complimentary noodles, this meal was incredibly well-priced at $10.99 per lunch special. High quality dishes with plenty of meat and fresh vegetables. The noodles were simple but larger than expected, well-cooked, and delicious. My mom raved about this place. She hasn't had quality Chinese food at that price in a long time, and is telling all of our family members that we should go back when they're in town. It wasn't very busy, but we hope it was just the weather. Hopefully lots of people are supporting them! We can't wait to go back.

Wow wow wow! That was some flavorful, delicious Chinese food -- and with a fun, funky ambiance!…read more We were seated quickly at one of 2 open tables on a rainy Thursday evening. Ordered green tea, a Jade Dynasty cocktail and pot stickers to enjoy while we perused the menu (including the picture book!). The pot stickers were delicious! More like meatballs inside, served with a I-don't-know-what-this-is-but-it's-delicious sauce. We ordered and were pretty quickly delivered our mains: How Fun noodles (level 2 spice) with chicken and Pepper Beef (level 3 spice). Both were outstanding! The sauces on both were savory and delicious. The noodles were great - not slimy like they can sometimes be but firm yet delicate. The chicken was tasty. The pepper beef was tangy and tender with a nice balance of peppers and onions. Serving sizes big enough for lunch the next day. Vibrant decor made the place really feel alive and servers were friendly and efficient. We found street parking but I assume this part of Covington gets busy on weekend nights so allow a few minutes to find a spot. Bonus tip: stop at DelGardo's down the street and get a couple cannoli for dessert. Perfect end to a delicious meal!

After seeing so many recommendations for this place on Reddit, we were excited to finally try it as…read morewe were passing through on the way to Cincinnati. First off, the place has a fun and playful vibe with the kung fu theme, especially when you're greeted by a Shaolin Soccer poster. The service is also A+! Extremely friendly and attentive. The portions are also generous. However......... my tastebuds are baffled. We ordered a hot and sour soup as our starter and it was extremely sweet. It was basically hot sugar soup. If we hadn't put our full order in at the same time as the app, we probably would've paid after the soup and left then. However, we did order and got the szechuan beef, general chu's sesame chicken, and the how fun noodles which we were all okay. Not memorable. I'm leaving one star because the staff and atmosphere were great. I've never been compelled to write a bad review, but I could not get past the sugary hot and sour soup. For $55, I'd really expect more flavor than just sugar and chili oil for all of the dishes.
