I have been a customer of Golden Chopsticks since the 1980s. I have three favorite dishes: chicken chow mein, barbeque pork fried rice, and egg rolls. The chicken chow mein has no noodles, nor do I care. All I know is that it's got a bit if a garlic kick, crisp-tender celery, bean sprouts, carrots, and onions with lots of chunks of chicken thigh meat in a savory sauce. I've never found any other restaurant that can compare to this dish. The portion is so large, I can make 3 mea,s from it! The BBQ pork fried rice has large slices of char siu pork, shredded carrots, egg, green onion, bean sprouts, and probably other stuff. I don't analyze it...I eat it! Delicious! I can make 3 or 4 meals from one order. The egg rolls are slender, crunchy, and flavorful. The egg roll skins are thin and crispy, covering a flavorful vegetable mixture. There may be some meat in them, I'm not sure, as I don't analyze 'em...I just eat 'em. Best egg rolls anywhere! The restaurant is definitely not fancy, and we always order for takeout. The food is so piping hot when we get home, that we have wait a bit for the food to cool down to begin eating. For what it's worth, I definitely recommend this place! If you don't like it, no biggie...more for me! read more

Been working in Arlington over 4 years and decided to give this a chance to keep from driving too far. Ordered yesterday and was missing an item. Returned today and lady at register had theeeee worst attitude for someone who couldn't understand what I was saying. Polite person you order with over the phone IS NOT at the location. I'll drive the 20 minutes next time I want Chinese food. read more

The portions were huge and the food was alright. I found the food a bit oily but definitely going back for more.Panda express could neverrr!! read more

Worst Chinese Restaurant EVER! The Food is TASTELESS! Most Asian food is full of flavor. You won't get that here. Worst Chinese food I've ever had!! They are very dismissive of the customer. The staff does not speak a word of English, therefore when I requested fried rice with no veggies only egg, I was presented with plain rice. I ordered pepper steak, my tray was full of peppers & onions with very little steak. I ordered fried noodles & literally got @ 10 sticks in a bag that would generally go on a salad. I tried to explain my order, the staff didn't understand & called someone. This person spoke English. I explained the situation & told him it's hard to explain my order if they didn't speak English & if he could come to the restaurant. He stated that their restaurant has customers so there is no need to speak English & he is at another shop & cannot come. Waste of money. read more

If I could give zero stars I would! Something has changed here and not for the better! We ordered take out. Called the order in for pick up at 5:30, they took our card number. Arrived at 5:30, didn't have the card number or the order ready. They finally found the order, I wish they hadn't. We got Egg drop soup (this was a little better than ok) , Orange chicken (absolutely the worst I have ever had. It was soggy and no orange flavor or sauce), broccoli beef (literally had to pull the shoe leather beef out of my mouth and throw it away and again no flavor), pork fried rice (had maybe 4 pieces of tough pork), and eggrolls (soggy and not much flavor to these either). This place used to be good but this was truly awful. Another side note...the place was dirty. We spent $66 on food that was barely edible. Save yourself some money and go elsewhere. read more

Ordered the sesame chicken, rice, and egg rolls. The sesame chicken was very mushy and it made the chicken taste of nothing. Undersides of each chicken had little to no sauce on it, and all of the chicken were stuck together and coming apart. The egg rolls insides were all a gross smoothie of mushed vegetables and grease. Instantly caused indigestion, made me regret my life decisions of getting cheap take out. The rice by far was the worst part of the experience. The "white" rice was a light brown hue and black bits due to a dirty wok or just dirty rice. The rice looked like it was never washed, at least that's how it tasted. I opened the rice box smelled like an old dirty plaster wall, and the condensation in the box was also brown and sticky. The food was awful, I would advise go get some Panda Express. read more

Golden Chopsticks - Steamed Rice... Cat no included - Chinese Near Me - Arlington, Texas

This was a great place to dine in once upon a time ago. Now it's not, one upon a time ago you could see into the kitchen. They have since poorly closed it up. The inside of the restaurant is really not dine in friendly at all. We ordered cashew chicken, yet there were no cashews in it. The Kung Pow chicken was just okay. This a place that was once great for take out or dine in. It is, after all, a short walk from the Dallas Cowboys stadium. The egg rolls were good, and the vegetables seemed fresh. read more

Warning! Im 61 and this is the worst Chinese food I have ever eaten. Everything but the spring rolls was freezer burnt, dry. Hardly any chicken in Gen Tso chicken, mini Shrimp where the "shrimp tempura"it was 98% batter- cho cho beef was like leather Hardly any filling in dried up dumplings or rangoon. Pork lo mein nasty. Rice was ok Called there and the owner was supposed to call me back, but I guess he just couldn't be bothered!!!! Grubhub just dumped my stuff at the front door never bothered to ring the doorbell or anything! Overpriced and nasty food . Asked for coke and got rootbeer. If there was a minus star rating I would do it! read more

If I could leave negative stars I would terrible customer service on the phone the women answering should be fired extremely rude. Food gave me and my pregnant wife food poisoning we've been sick all night DO NOT EAT HERE IVE CALLED THE HEALTH DEPARTMENT read more

The cooks at this place do not speak English. You try explain to them what u want, they become mad and offensive. I Called for food to be picked up in 25mins I got here after 35mins and my food was not ready. had to wait an extra 20mins. called a different day, an hour earlier, only to get there and was told my food was given to someone else, cause they thought I was no longer coming. All waste of time and money. read more

I have been going here for many Years and they have always been consistent. Food is delivered promptly and always hot and fresh. They cook to order. They do not scoop your dish out of a vat of precooked and stored food. I've watched them personally cook the food as orders come in. Could be a little cleaner but I can understand for the most part, they've been there for a very long time (I'm talking since 2005- all the girls in our office used to order lunch to be delivered to premier pigments, which is no longer at randol mill and 360 to give you an idea if how long I've been eating there!) Anyways, the entire strip is in need of a little bit of renovating inside the businesses which is not on them it's on the people they rent it from. The location is prime! Keep up the good work neighbors! read more

I placed my order online and came into the restaurant to pick up my order and no one speaks English. they don't have my order but they have my money. the lady at the register calls someone on the phone that understands some English and says they are having a computer problem. i had to wait a long time for them to figure it out. stay away from this place read more

Well sadly the new owners are nice but the food is nasty . The sweet and sour pork I think was spoiled , it smelled and tasted odd . Chicken chow mien was not good at all either . I used to love their egg rolls but this was a one bite and done . I ordered an extra one and it was hard throwing them both away read more

I have eaten here several times and each time the food is delicious. Ive relocated here and this is by far the best .

The BEST Kung POW Chicken EVER! I absolutely love this place. I will not order from any other place! Delicious!

Apparently y'all do not know good Chinese food this place is nasty. They do not know how to make food fried rice at all which is the basics to Asian cooking. read more

Golden Chopsticks - Raw cabbage in the chicken this is horrible. And the chicken tasted like it was fried 2 times it was old chicken. NO REFUND HORRIBLE - Chinese Near Me - Arlington, Texas

The spicy fry rice was great! I did not try the other stuffs so I can't comments. The cook was friendly and courteous.

Despite the language barrier there staff is extremely nice! Food is delicious! I live in Keller and this is still my go to place regardless of the distance. read more

They have good food but they never make what you order the same way twice. It's more like Chinese surprise if you order anything but the normal sweet and sour dishes or General Tso. read more

I called to place an order. The person took my order for delivery. She was rude and kept repeating herself and interrupted me the entire time. 5 mins later, I received a text that my order was canceled due to no drivers. Why did they take my order if they didn't have drivers? Extremely bad customer service. I'd never go there or order again. read more

I like this place. They're consistent and the food is always cooked to order. If you're looking for good take out Chinese food then I don't think you'd go wrong here. read more

Not as expected asked for fried rice in lunch special but gave some normal rice wasn't great

This used to be my go to place for Asian cuisine-good tasting/fast delivery. I gave it 3 stars bcuz it was not quite up to snuff taste wise. Maybe I just got a bad batch on a bad day -I'm sure next time it will be as good as it always was. read more

This place is disgusting. Save your time and money. Upon walking into the dining area it looks dirty but wanted to give them a try. The food was AWFUL. You get charged for water, and extra minor things you shouldn't get charged for. Example. Extra chips for my egg drop soup. Also doesn't help that the service was not very friendly. read more

This place never fails!!!! A bit of a drive from where I live, but definitely worth it!!!

I was looking for a good Chinese restaurant in the area and stumbled across the great reviews for Golden Chopsticks. Now typically my fellow yelpers do not steer me wrong, this place however, was a total bust. I ordered the general tsao chicken. It comes with fried rice and an egg roll for about 9 bucks. The egg roll was more of a spring roll and was the best part of the meal. It was crunchy and fresh and perfect. The chicken was not good at all. For starters it was cold. There was no reason for my meal to be cold from my less than 10 min drive home. The flavor was terribly bland for an otherwise flavorful, spicy dish and the portions are very small for the price. 2 stars for the spring roll and the nice young lady working the cash register. But I will not be returning. read more

great food got some lo mei has a lot of onion more than noodles but they where good next time I will just ask for no onion got some wings they where delicious crispy and big a little over priced but it's good they deliver but after 4pm read more

This has been my favorite place for Chinese food for the past 7 years. I usually get the hot and sour soup with fried rice and an egg roll. I've had other dishes and they've been amazing as well. The prices are amazing and the food tastes amazing. I've had other places in the area, but nothing compares to Golden Chopsticks. read more

If you plan on getting your food today, DON'T!! Staff isn't very pleasant! You can't be rude and slow! read more

The fast food of Chinese food. They'll prepare an otherwise 20 minute dish in 5 minutes, they'll get your order wrong, and once you eat it you'll wish you'd chosen any place but this. Orange chicken, orange beef, and chicken wings were all awful with strange after tastes. Soggy, bland, and somehow my entire orange beef was fried stuck together. impossible to eat more than one bite of any of it. Egg rolls are actually veggie spring rolls but are good. Never Ever Again......BUST read more

Egg rolls and shrimp fried rice! This is my favorite place in Arlington to go for both! The egg rolls are ALWAYS hot fresh and nice and crispy! read more

I barely ever leave reviews but this place is just so good. I got my beef fried rice with wonton soup delivered and it tastes so good... it doesn't even need soy sauce! The delivery guy seemed so friendly too! read more

horrible. 1. they want you to call an order in or place online ( due to owners not speaking English; which is fine. the problem is they completely messed up my order. the food hasn't been good since the original owners left. honestly, there's probably better Chinese restaurants elsewhere instead of actually coming to this one. read more

Good place I have been going here for 15 years. The owners are nice people. The egg drop soup is good and the egg roles are good. I like most of the item on the menu. It is a good quick place for Chinese. Not the best. It is very small and warm inside in the summer. read more

We've been eating at Golden Chopsticks for over 20 years now and it is one of my three favorite Chinese places in Arlington. Let's get the bad part out of the way first. The place is a DUMP. It's clean but there will be tubs of food cooling on the dining room tables along with food storage in the public areas. Not the most hygienic of storage. I don't think the food should be in the same area as the dining public but that's just my opinion. Now that the bad has been spoken, the food is GREAT. Like I said we have been coming here for over 20 years and 99% of the time all is great (in 20 years 1%, not so great, is GREAT odds). I've never had a meal here that I was not happy with. On that list would be the Garlic Chicken, Beef Lo Mein, Fried Rice, Egg Rolls, and Egg Drop Soup just to name a few. This is mostly a delivery and take-out place but a few eat there too. You order at the register where you will be greeted by an always friendly staff. The prices are in line with all the other places in town. Most items are in the $6-12 range. Give them a try; I'm sure you will be back. (Just don't look in the back of the dining room) hehehe read more

This place is delicious, best beef and broccoli in Arlington and the fried egg noodles and their egg roles. Super consistent and the service on the phone is always accommodating and nice. Delivery is always correct and fast. Have been ordering here for a while and it's definitely a MUST try guys. The portions are great and wouldn't change a thing. read more
