everything on/in styrofoam. I ordered the chicken and broccoli which had plenty of large pieces of broccoli, a decent amount of chicken, and a plate full of white rice. The cheapest flimsy plastic fork made piercing anything impossible, so maybe a spoon would be a better choice? Uninspired flavor, basic food. read more

This is one of the few Chinese restaurants that are still inexpensive. I ordered shrimp toast & the general tsao combination platter. Everything was hot & tasty. The only thing I didn't like was the spring roll read more

I have not been able to find a good Chinese restaurant since moving back into the area and after reading the reviews on this place, we decided to order takeout. It did not disappoint. Everything was delicious. The only thing I wish that we had was a menu to take home, other than that I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a good Chinese takeout place. Definitely ordering again! read more

I tried the garlic chicken for the 1st time today. I am a lover of garlic. Although this dish was tasty, I did not detect any garlic in it. The fried dumplings were huge and filled just right. They were very good. I still say that my favorite dish here so far is the general Tso's chicken. The family who own and run this place is very friendly. The service is always fast. Great place to stop and grab lunch or get dinner to take home. read more

Excellent food and service although we were there at the Chinese new year's and very busy

The most difficult thing for my family to find is decent Chinese food. Unfortunately I am hard to please when it comes to chicken and it really tasting like chicken to me. I struggle with mystery meat ... however this place was pretty good. We must have read 30 reviews before choosing this place and that is how I discovered that we are just VERY cautious about where we order from out of fear of disappointment.... I will say it was refreshing to encounter a place that makes the food fresh and you can tell. The food was not salty and they got it ready pretty quick. This is mainly a small take out spot. If they had chairs, they may have been put up. The restaurant was busy and the parking lot was full .... This was a great find and a pleasant surprise read more

Golden Dragon - Sweet and sour chicken, shrimp and broccoli, veggie lo mein - Chinese Near Me - Buffalo, New York

Golden Dragon is my favorite Chinese food in the area. It's inexpensive for what you get and so tasty! I especially love their sesame chicken combo... you get sesame chicken, broccoli, rice (pork fried or white) and an egg roll. So much for the price! I highly recommend calling ahead- unfortunately they don't have an online order system. read more

I grew up living near Golden Dragon and it was the place we would always get our Chinese food from. It is comfort food. And I know that every time I order, it will be consistent. That's what I like the most - consistency. On this particular order, I got the shrimp with Chinese vegetables combo, which came with an egg roll (dinner combo.) This was my first time getting this dish, and I chose it because it wasn't fried. I don't know if I would get it again, but it was something different. FYI - They are not open on Mondays. So do not crave Chinese food on Mondays if you would like to get take out from here. read more

We decided to pickup Chinese food to take to my mom as a treat when we visited her the last time. Looked online and we were surprised to see this place had the highest rating of all Chinese restaurants in the area. After a conversation over the phone, I discovered most of the vegetarian items use chicken stock in them for flavoring. Only safe thing to order was vegetable lo mein and I'm not 100% sure that was free from animal products. My mother enjoyed her crab rangoon and general Tso's chicken so it was a win regardless of what I thought. I would only order here again if she requested it, otherwise I'd find a different place in the area to get takeout from. read more

This Asian food is amazing, there food is cooked perfectly, the steak is not a slab of rubber it's actually cooked to perfection, I personally drive 15 minutes one way to get food from here because there serious about there service, the atmosphere is average for a corner Asian spot, it is clean and organized in there, and the family is very friendly and respectful, thank you for reading my comment. read more

This restaurant is always busy, though the workers do an outstanding job filing all the orders. Their food is also very good, as one can tell from the reviews. The employees are friendlier than normal too. The prices tend to be a dollar or so higher than the cost of each food item for the other Chinese restaurants in the area. read more

Golden Dragon - Generals Tsos combo, Pepper Steak Combo, and (the largest) bbq ribs. $25 - Chinese Near Me - Buffalo, New York

Wanna see my golden dragon? OK it's really not gold. Kinda brown ish. Tan colour. This is a pretty cool and extremely cheap Chinese restaurant, with pretty good Curry Shrimp (though not spicy enough) that they sell by the small or large order. Small orders of everything are cheap as a motherf*****. The lady is friendly, the orders take around 7 minutes at most, and it's pretty good across the board. Not the best place to sit in and eat, but there's a few tables if that's your thing. I can't give 5 stars because there are so many Chinese places up in Amherst that sell real Chinese food, such as Gin Gin, China King on Maple, Peking Quick One, Home Taste, Mandarin Garden, Wok N Roll and others. I much prefer real authentic Home Style Chinese. I know this review has managed to Drag-on. So I'll end it. read more

Golden Dragon is your typical fast food Chinese food. What makes them different though from alot of other restaurants, is that their food always taste fresh. I always enjoyed their shrimp egg Fu young (3 patties), it's a simple dish but it taste really good. It also comes with a side of gravy. Their chicken lo mein is also good. The restaurant has 3 tables if you care to eat in. I normally just order take out read more

Golden Dragon - General tso chicken with shrimp Fried Rice - Chinese Near Me - Buffalo, New York

At the end of a hectic day, we had one more errand to run. It happened to go by, and pass back by Golden Dragon on the way home. So this tired old mom ordered takeout to grab on the way back after we completed our errand. No website for Golden Dragon, so we reviewed recent menu photos in Yelp to choose our foods. We are a mostly meatless fam', and Golden Dragon's vegetarian menu is fairly limited compared to some other Chinese takeouts we frequent. Even so, exhaustion won, and we went with a few of their available meat-free options: an order of Szechuan bean curd, an order of broccoli in garlic sauce, and a large order of vegetable lo mein. I called to place the order, which was easy enough. Foods were ready in fifteen minutes, which was good timing for us. The total bill for the three dishes was about $30, about ten bucks an entrée, comparable to most Chinese takeout. Pickup was smooth, with easy parking in the little strip mall lot where the restaurant is located. The food itself was okay. The Szechuan bean curd was maybe half tofu if that, mostly vegetables. It tasted good enough, but I like when the tofu proportion is more generous. The broccoli in garlic sauce was actually mixed vegetables in garlic sauce, with not all that much broccoli. Both dishes were marked spicy in the menu, and I'm usually sensitive to fairly mild spice, but these were not spicy at all. They tasted fine, but definitely not spicy as the menu suggested. The vegetable lo mein was alright too, just a typical lo mein. Overall our order from Golden Dragon was okay. Not bad, not great, just middle-of-the-road Chinese takeout. I won't go out of my way to order from here again since their vegetarian options are fewer than other places we like, but if I'm going by and want to grab fast Chinese dinner in a pinch, it is good enough for that scenario. read more

Food quality is above average IMO, but prices are very good indeed. The restaurant itself is very clean, though currently not allowing eat in. I don't think there's a bathroom, at least not a public one. The food was also very nice and quick to come out. I can certainly see the appeal of this place! read more

After moving a couple years ago, we tried a few places in the neighborhood and were not impressed. We found this place by chance and love it! Food is always delicious and fresh. read more

Decent food fast service. Great in a pinch. I recommend this place. Always got a decent meal.

Decent food. Stopped here for takeout, got the chicken with mixed veggies and egg drop soup. Chicken was really good with fresh veggies but the soup was super super salty. I've had egg drop soup from over 20 different places and never had it this salty. I couldn't finish it and I love egg drop soup. Too bad, maybe just a bad batch but I'll never get soup from this place again. read more

Excellent service, very friendly staff, the food is always delicious and priced well. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for great Chinese cuisine! read more

A great spot right outside of the city in Cheektowaga. I went here with my dad for takeout and for a family of four with an appetizer, it was only $44 which is unheard of in 2021. All of our good was great. I got the sesame chicken that came with an egg roll and then crab rangoon. I enjoyed all of it thoroughly and it was big enough for a second meal the next day for me. The service was very friendly and incredibly timely. I also found it to be clean and orderly. The overall look inside is that of a traditional takeout Chinese spot and it is perfect for that service. Definitely will be back! read more

First time ordering from here. The Menu online is deceiving. We were overcharged big time. The prices online versus what we paid was double!! Not sure if that was a mistake or not. Only got 4 chicken wings although it says 5 on the menu. We also got 2 small soups, sweet and sour chicken and chicken and broccoli. Food tasted fine but we will not be ordering from here again read more

Food is great but they are not open on Sundays. Yelp shows their hours today as 11:30 to 9:30 , that is not accurate.

Hands down my go-to neighborhood Chinese place! The food is delicious, portion sizes are huge and prices are great. It's not fancy by any means. Just your normal, corner Chinese joint. No it's probably not "authentic" but I'm ok with that. Tasty, fast, & cheap. The fast food trifecta. They have lunch and dinner specials as you'd expect. The only Downside is no delivery but again if you're in the neighborhood it's worth a quick drive. read more

Our only take out Chinese that we will order from! I love the orange chicken extra spicy and my husband loves the General tso chicken. Great prices and delicious tasting food!! We have been ordering from Golden Dragon for years!! read more

Would have loved to eat here but spent 15 mins trying to call and never got anyone to pick up the phone. Le sigh

Not a lot of places around here that aren't just buffets. The place is quiet, needed for my elderly mother to enjoy. Large servings, many choice. The wait staff was attentive and we found a seat as soon as we walked in. There were a lot of take out orders picked up while we waited read more

Hey there out in Yelp! Land! I'm back! I'm back with a new name, but with the same snarky ass attitude. Even though I've been absent for over a year, I've still been dining out, and tonight as my life continues to settle into blissful normalcy, I felt like sharing our dinner experience. Or lack there of...I really don't want to slam Golden Dragon. They're nice folks, and they step to it when you're waiting at the counter, but tonight's take out just really sucked. I love the enticing advertisement on the menu for "free" eggrolls, or pork fried rice etc. offerings once you spend X amount, but that didn't alleviate the sting from the disappointing 75 pound bag of food I hauled into the house... Our order was coming right out of the fryer when we got there, so I was glad that it would still be hot when we sat down at home to chow. The excitement was building... I knew enough to not order hot & sour soup this time because it was pretty lousy the last few times we got it - thin, bland. Not hot. Not sour....So I made up the monetary requirement for free sweet and sour chicken (for my daughter) with their barbeque ribs. Ribs: Looked great, nice and gooey and blackened, meaty, and a good amount in the foil bag. Try gnawing the pork? off the bones though. It was tough, sinewy and inedible. The flavor of the meat was questionable, almost raw tasting . Ick. Shoved said rib to the side of my dish. Next up, springrolls. Hot out of the little wax bag came a dripping wet (but crispy enough) lead sinker. All dough with a few shreds of cabbabage inside and I THINK half of a shrimp. At this point the familiar thought of "why does Chinese always seem like a good idea" branded my brain. UGH!! The Phoenix & Dragon entree was good enough. It's comprised of chicken clumps and actual good sized whole shrimp and the usual vegetables. The sauce is tasty, but you'll find yourself picking thru the plastic dish in search of pieces of food NOT swimming (drowning) in it. Beef Lo Mein: G R O S S. Gooey greasy noodles. Rare if any vegetables. Tasteless. Next time we do take out, I'll think outside the box and drive the extra couple miles to Saigon Bankok. read more

A non-descript take-out in north Cheektowaga has so far served up pretty good Chinese food. If you've ever traveled the twists and turns of Harlem Road's traffic circles, you might have noticed Golden Dragon in a plaza at Harlem and Cleveland Drive right beside the Northtown Music shop. We ordered a house fried rice and curry shrimp for our first snowy evening in WNY. When I arrived to pick up the food, I found Golden Dragon to be a clean, typical fast food Chinese take-out. There are a couple tables in case you want to eat in. But the restaurant is all about a giant counter with Chinese girlie calendars. A young couple was working there, speaking Mandarin. The young lady took orders and worked the phone, while the young man was stirring up wok heaven. Our food was piping hot and very generous in portion. The house fried rice - which has shrimp, chicken, and cubes of pork - was beautifully cooked in a dark soy - very light and fluffy. The curry shrimp had large, butterflied shrimp with onions and peppers - not too spicy. We also got a small carton of white rice that came with the shrimp. Total was $18 with more than enough food for 2 for 2 meals. For some reason, they have precious little details on their Yelp listing, so I grabbed their very extensive menu which states that they cover Cantonese and Szechuan cooking. We'll be back! read more

It is so difficult to find good Chinese around here . Golden dragon is spot on with fresh food and flavor .

I've been coming here as long as I can remember. Your typical Chinese American food but it is very high quality. Best in the area by far. This place is truly reliable by consistently serving above average food ready in 15 minutes or less. read more

Best "fast food" Chinese take out. This is my go to place for Chinese take out. Staff is friendly and food is always made on time. Great food, prices and serving size. They accept credit/debit, have seating inside if you want to eat there, and easy parking. ***I posted pictures of their menu as of February 2017. And a combo platter take out.. read more

OK, first the good. I love rice and they did a nice job with it. Unfortunately, it ends there. I ordered shrimp egg foo yung. What I got was a WHOLE lot of onions and very few shrimp. I used to go to this restaurant regularly, but stopped as I felt the quality of the food had been deteriorating. Thought I would try them again after reading some reviews. It didn't work out and I will not be returning. read more

Best Singapore rice noodles. Spicy seasoned and tons of noodles... Sesame chicken is very good too. We order food from Golden Dragon at least once a week. It is also very clean and you get lots of food for the price. Nice family. read more

This is our "go to" Chinese restaurant. Always good food, good prices, huge portions, and very fast.

Easily the best chinese food take out I have had in WNY. The sesame chicken and general tso chicken have the right amount of breading and sauce. The sauces taste fresh and flavorful, not like they are super artificial like some places. The pork egg rolls are huge and amazing. The chicken loin mein has the perfect balance of ingredients so you aren't eating all noodles or all veggies. I can't wait to go back! read more
