Really good hot and sour soup! This place is a casual, counter service restaurant. I ordered to-go bc I had been dreaming of hot and sour soup. They have $10 card minimum. read more

Golden Chopstick - 24. Hot & Sour Soup - Chinese Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Clean restaurant, quick service, questionable meat. I ordered chicken & broccoli in garlic sauce with rice. I was told the garlic sauce would be spicy, it wasn't. The broccoli was cooked perfectly, but pieces were way thinner than expected. And that "chicken"...I've eaten plenty of chicken in my life and I've NEVER had chicken this texture before. I can't even compare it to any other meat I've had. They don't have to worry about me anymore. read more

A yummy takeout option with affordable pricing. Had a constant customer line, and I see why. After research, I'm still unsure what my Pananian Lo Mein means, but I can share it's flavorful and has tender pork. Only marking four stars because I do feel there is a numbing amount of MSG-usage, but I'm acknowledging the type of restaurant I'm walking into. read more

Golden Chopstick - 133. Pork Lo Mein Pananian Style - Chinese Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

I ordered from this place a second time after having a forgettable but presumably okay experience the first time. I had a strange moment for the first time where after ordering vegetable delight which was a container filled halfway with white rice that wasn't mentioned on the order, a chicken lo mein, and shrimp dumplings where I wasn't sure if any of the protein I was eating was real. I am not convinced their chicken wasn't soy or tempeh drenched in a cornstarch slurry to imitate chicken. And the shrimp didn't have the texture of any shrimp I ever had. They should be ashamed for selling shit like this to people. Its disrespectful. Just charge more for good food. If is how you save costs, you guys should not be in business. read more

general tso's bean curd (tofu) is EXCEPTIONALLY DELICIOUS for a hole in the wall place like this. I also recommend the scallion pancake.

Ordered the general Tso's with vegetable fried rice and an egg roll. The flavor was meh, the texture was meh. Very unimpressed, will not return ever. The counter person was fine and the food was ready in about 15 minutes despite them being very busy surprisingly. read more

Golden Chopstick - S2. General Tso's Chicken - Chinese Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Great family owned spot so familiar to us new yorkers. They cook like a hurricane super fast. Here are things I do not suggest. The sezjuan stuff is fake, The chicken and cashew feels like tofu but all the other standards are great. Thank you read more

The people who work there are nasty and answering the phone don't recommend anyone ordering from there bad service

Golden chopstick is an amazing Chinese restaurant. From the portions, to the flavors, to the variety, honestly this restaurant is really one of the best Chinese food restaurants I've eaten from in my entire life. It's to a point that I order so much that they know my name before I even say what I ordered on Uber eats for pick up. I could not recommend them more. read more

This place has amazing food and large portions. I highly recommend the crispy sesame chicken and fried rice. They were very efficient and quick service. read more

Tried this place again and got food poisoning. Don't eat here. The staff is not pleasant at all either

Food was really good no complaints. The panamanian house special lo mein was a lot and tasty. I am Panamaian and we don't get this at every Chinese restaurant. The dumplings was tasty also the wings crispy kinda small but not oily. Only downfall was that I spent $28 before delivery charge. So a free soda or iced tea would've been nice. Thats why I took off 1 star kinda cheap ppl.. But I will order again. read more

I've tried a few items on the menu. For an affordable lunch in Crown Heights, I haven't found a spot that comes close to the appeal of Golden Chopstick's generous lunch special with big portions and soup included. The quick service is quite reliable, though I'd recommend checking you got all your items if ordering takeout. The food is average-to-good, never worse than that. The best item I've had, which I've ordered again and again, is the boneless rib tips. read more

The quality of the food has gone down and the prices have gone up. I recently purchased 15 jumbo fried shrimp (Three orders) for $25 plus. In the order I received what can be described as baseball sized butterfly "so called) shrimp. I sampled one, 80 percent was horrible breading. Ths actual shrimp was the size of a half dollar coin. I was a regular customer and I do mean "was", I'll try another restaurant. Buyer beware. read more

*COVID takeout* I stopped by after two long train rides to pick up a Veggie Delight&Fried Rice combo plate with a bottle of sparkling water. Golden Chopstick has a plastic and metal partition between the register/kitchen and the customer area. All the tables are stacked, so it's delivery and takeout only, but you can order there at the register. On the plus side, the Veggie Delight (mixed vegetables in brown sauce) was--as other reviewers have mentioned--extremely savory without being too oily. The variety of vegetables was nice: snow peas, carrots, mushrooms, baby corn, soft tofu, water chestnuts, celery, and broccoli. I only wish the ratio of vegetables to fried rice could have been more equal. There was much more rice. The fried rice was on the blander and oilier side, so maybe I should have gone all the way and ordered noodles. I'll try that next time! Service was kind and thorough. I especially appreciated that they asked what sauces I wanted (just mustard please!), rather than giving packets of duck and soy sauce that are going to sit in my fridge for the next 100 years. read more

Golden Chopstick - Sesame Shrimp Fried Extra Hard with Shrimp Fried Rice - Chinese Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

4 stars for the food & an extra star for the most reasonable takeout prices in the neighborhood. My go tos are at the sweet & sour chicken and the cashew chicken and they never disappoint. No frills, great value, big portions, no gimmicks. read more

You may have previously read my J's Wong review, where I deemed it the best take-out Chinese food spot in town. Well, the honorable Wong still wears that crown, but it now shares it with Golden Chopstick. Every dish here is an exquisite combination of flavor and grease. I especially recommend the crispy chicken with garlic sauce and the Pananian style fried rice. I wasn't sure what Pananian style meant when I ordered it, but I took the risk, and boy golly am I glad I did. They've got something for everyone here, and truthfully, spots like these are among my favorites in Crown Heights. Unpretentious, unassuming, and unreal delicious. What's not to love? read more

Is this place a 5 star restaurant? Probably not. But they have 1 5 star dish I would like to tell you about. This review is for that dish. It's not always on the menu, but if you ask them, they make it: Crispy Chicken with Garlic Sauce. Why is it so good? Because when I order American style Chinese food, I want something to be brown, salty, fatty and rich. And that's what this is. Maybe you are the type of person who orders like, sweet and sour chicken or szechuan beef. That's on you. But if you just need the comfort, order CCWGS and substitute the rice with lo mein. read more

Just a quick lunch! $6 for 4 options! This ain't your Panda Express but things my grandma would cook for us when she was still alive (RIP) we missed you and your cooking! read more

I've tried this place twice and both times it was horrible. Dumplings were burnt, tasted a bit like asphalt with the same sensation when chewing. The Egg roll was like the cardboard they throw down on the bodega floor when it rains except less crunchy. Sesame chicken like moldy bread dragged through 2 day old KFC grease. I have no idea why anyone would give this place a good review. read more

Most of the Chinese takeout places in this part of Brooklyn look the same: a large window facing the street, greenish neon light in the inside, a couple of formica tables. The same identical pictures of typical Chinese food dishes on light boxes that you see everywhere. A bulletproof screen and a metal door that separate the "dining" area from the kitchen. Even the menus look the same. Most of the times the food is mediocre, with some noticeable exception in one way[1] or another. Golden Chopstick is an exception in the worst possible way. I like Chinese food and I eat Chinese takeout regularly. I don't know this neighborhood that well, and what attracted me to this place was the cute name. Moreover, on the menu I read they have "Pananian" dishes. I have no clue what Pananian mean[2], but having something unusual on the menu usually scores points for me. I decide to play it safe and I get an orange chicken ($5 for a "small" plate). It was just inedible: the chicken was tough and chewy, without any discernible taste, if not a lingering foul aftertaste that bothered me the rest of the night. I hate wasting food, but this abomination went straight from my plate to the trash can. AVOID AVOID AVOID! IFHTP -------------------------------------------- [1] This one being a noticeable exception in a positive way: http://www.yelp.com/biz/hua-long-chinese-restaurant-brooklyn#hrid:2jGeRQ6RaifBpVX_Pbn-Yg/src:self [2] I don't think they meant Panamanian, since the Pananian dishes sound decidedly Chinese. Maybe Filipino...? read more

Updating my review with more stars. This place has become my favorite. It's always super hot and fresh. Broccoli with garlic sauce, shrimp and broccoli, chicken and broccoli, and General Tso are BOMB. Kung pao and Mongolian beef were also pretty good. read more

Golden Chopstick - Shrimp and broccoli with garlic sauce (be sure to specify garlic sauce!!!). Perfection. - Chinese Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Happy to report that Golden Chopstick is back in business! Ordered egg foo young and kung pao chicken for dinner, and it arrived delicious and piping hot. read more

ordered for home delivery. Got chicken and broccoli with brown rice; egg rolls and wings . Love the brown rice option as many Chinese restaurants don't offer options other than fries, lo mein and white rice . Food was ok and like most traditional Chinese restaurants meal. Satisfying and fills your belly. Delivery was quick; Maybe 5-10 mins after ordering however the delivery guy was kinda rude. Took me some time to get to him he called the second time to rush me . Still gave a tip. read more

Didn't really like the food,Chicken was dry and rice wasn't very appropriate I got 2 peices of broccoli don't recommend ‍

This is the best quality takeout Chinese I've had in the city. I ordered online during the snowstorm, and they called me right away to tell me they would be a bit late (automatic cool points), but they weren't even late. I got the General Tso's chicken platter and scallops. Everything came hot and fresh, but the true test would be taste. They passed with flying colors. The food is delicious; not too greasy, not too saucy. The chicken is crispy but not rock hard, and there's more than 2 pieces of broccoli! Just delicious. I will definitely order from here again. P.S. The delivery guy is so nice! read more

Solid delivery here! I always order from here when I'm in the mood for Chinese food. Their food is always fresh and doesn't leave you with the heavy sinking feeling after indulging. Their delivery service is timely and the food always comes hot. I've had the shrimp and broccoli, the sesame chicken along with the pork fried rice. The rice has a yellow tint without over frying. The rice is always fluffy and flavorful. Always a hit on lazy non cooking nights. read more

I've eaten a fish sandwich here once before but, because I took it way uptown with me, and doctored it up before I ate it, I didn't have this issue. But on this visit, the fish seemed fried a bit too hard and the bread was stale and falling apart. It wouldn't even hold up when trying to make a sandwich. AND they gave me an end of a loaf. I've never seen this done before; usually restaurants throw it out. But maybe not and Chinese food spots? read more

I notice a pattern with the delivery people. When I put the tip in with the order before it gets delivered the delivery person shows up disrespectful. Going forward, when I order food via Grubhub or any of the food apps tips will not be given with the order. It will be given at the door when they bring it to me. If I detect any attitude the will leave without a tip. Period. I also don't like hair in my food. read more

First a clarification about the rating... For all of New York, this is a 3 star location. But for east Crown Heights, it's a 4 due to the fact that the order was fast, they delivered to the door, and the food was warm upon arrive. Didn't mess the order up either, and it's on Seamless. They have a panamanian section on the menu, which was strange but interesting. And as far as it could be determined, panamanian lo mein is just like normal lo mein but with a fried egg on top. I did not know this was a thing in Panama, but sure, why not. The lo mein itself was of the kind of dry variety, which isn't a favorite of mine, but I know people like. The egg foo young had its typical brown gravy, but it was pretty pretty pretty pretty good. Played well with the brown rice. The General Tso sauce was way too sweet. And the black sauce with the string beans was decent. There are plenty more Chinese places in east Crown Heights, and a lot of them suck. But until a really good one shows itself, this is a decent fall back. read more

It's amazing how one intersection changes everything. I was looking for some quick Chinese food I can have before a summer class I was taking at Medgar Evers College. I found one place that had the bulletproof counter and no tables or seats so I ventured down Franklin Ave across Eastern Parkway. It turned into a totally different area, I was able to sit down and study while I waited for my chicken wings and fried rice. Wings were crispy and much to my surprise I had a sprinkling of veggies in my fried rice! Such a delight! Tasty food and friendly staff, excellent takeout joint in my opinion. read more

Ghetto Chinese food. We've only ever had takeout, but the food we've had has been quite yummy. Very good comfort food. House Specialties ============= Fried Chicken Wings: B Appetizer ======= BBQ Spare Ribs: A- Very juicy. Nice fat and marbling on the cuts of meat. Fried Wanton: D Completely tasteless. Too greasy. No flavor at all. Steamed Dumplings: B Too doughy. Soup ==== Hot and Sour Soup: F I'm not sure if they simply made a mistake or if it truly was horrendous. There was no vinegar and no pepper. No spice whatsoever. It tasted like salt water. I'm going to have to try it one more time to see if what I had was made incorrectly or if they truly have horrendous hot and sour soup. I don't recall ever giving any food an F before, so this is quite bad. Fried Rice ======== Roast Pork Fried Rice: B+ Not very oily but still very tasty. Shrimp Fried Rice: B Somewhat plain. Seafood ====== Shrimp w. Lobster Sauce: B- Goopy and not much flavor. The only reason why I didn't give it a C+ is because there was actually quite a lot of shrimp, and the shrimp was pretty big. Chef's Special =========== Happy Family: B- Didn't like the flavor. read more

Not bad. Not great. But they deliver and the food is editable and at times tasty. It's nothing to rave about but it does the trick when you don't feel like cooking. Delivery is sloth. Prices are decent. read more

Food arrived insanely fast and piping hot... When you order fast-Chinese, you know exactly what you're in for. Within the context of that impending world of abdominal pain, this place is the Ritz of said category of "food born of desperation and/or intoxication." If you're in the market to buy what you know they're peddling, you can't find a faster or better compromise for your personal health or values. If you're going there, go here. read more

I feel like it's really difficult to screw up takeout chinese food. The recipes are well known and established and you really just have to make it within a modicum of what people expect to rate as "good". Golden Chopstick is a weird name for a chinese restaurant to begin with. Why would you make a utilitarian eating instrument out of gold to begin with? It's a soft metal and would be unnecessarily expensive. Or perhaps Golden Chopstick is a hint at their cooking style, since everything we had here was well fried. I ordered the usual staples of chinese food : fried chicken wings on rice and general tso's. The fried chicken wings were ok, a bit on the overfried and dry side. The rice a little mushy but acceptable. The general tso's however was something else. It was so overfried that it went beyond crispy... it was borderline crunchy. Even slathered in sauce, every bite was met with overfried breading. Not a great take out joint when you can't execute the staples. read more
