I love Golden Dragon. You can order on their website and then go pick up. They do have some tables in the restaurant but no wait staff. Today I got Hot and Sour soup for my cold and some Won Tons. Very delicious. As noted this is a family run business and they know what they are doing. They've been around for decades.

I had a craving for Chinese and wanted to try a new place vs what was close to my house. I came across here during my search and it did not disappoint! I placed my order online for a lunch order before leaving home. The estimated pick up was 30 minutes and to my surprise, it actually took that long. I had to wait for a while but it was very fresh and delicious. If you plan to go for lunch, be sure to order online and early, especially if you're on a time crunch! I've been back once since my first visit and the meal was also great. I've tried the sesame chicken and general tso chicken with white rice. It also came with an egg roll!

Found this place on Yelp because I've been looking for a good Chinese place in Greensboro our favorite place is long gone and we've never found a replacement. I ordered online for takeout and it was a good experience. The location was easy to find and the place was very clean. The service was good. I arrived early but my food was ready really quick. We ordered the sesame chicken which had good flavor and wasn't overcooked but the chicken wasn't crispy (more soggy) so it was not our favorite. The mushuu pork was good as was the beef lo mein. Thr best was the shrimp fried rice. Lots of shrimp! And the beef with broccoli tasted great! The beef and veggies were cooked well. We'll be going back!

Inside - where you place your order

I finally tried this place after seeing several of my favorite Yelpers go here and post great reviews. The moment I stepped in and saw how many people were inside - some were dining in and some waiting for their order - I knew I was in a place worth trying. It smelled so yummy inside too...not like a typical Chinese carryout, in my opinion. I ordered the shrimp lo Mein lunch special which came with a hefty portion of chicken fried rice and an egg roll. So let's get these pros and cons going because that's all we're really here for, right?! Pros: - food was steaming hot and fresh - nothing tasted old or stale - egg rolls were not greasy whatsoever which I am grateful for - food was good Cons: - none really. Have I had Chinese food that was better than this? - Yes Was this food delicious? - Yes You be the judge! Go check it out. I plan to return and try the egg foo young.

A view from the door. They have completely sealed off the counter.

I've gone from hot to cold on the restaurant. It was our go-to for fast food Chinese but the last few visits have not been good. Tonight we ordered hot and sour soup, spicy, a pork egg roll and a spring roll, and moo shu pork. The soup was bland with no discernible spice. The egg roll lacked any taste of pork and the moo shu pork had a very pungent off putting smell...so much so that we threw it away. Also, the wrappers for the moo shu pork appeared to be wonton wrappers and were difficult to use and frankly just odd. I have found the food quality to be sub par and hate that I'm having to scratch it off my list.

General Tso's Chicken*

I will say you honestly get your monies worth here! I swear the to-go box weighed like 10 lbs! We got the General Tso's chicken with fried rice and it was delicious We didn't order an Egg Roll but got one so I'm not sure if that comes with the meals or if it was just our lucky day but it was delicious as well! The portion was big enough for my husband and myself to eat dinner off it and have leftovers for one of us the next day.

Egg fu young. My favorite here!

The best Tofu and veggies! Egg rolls are better than any take out in Greensboro. I've been a customer for decades and they can't be beat.

Stopped in today for a late lunch. First impression: This isn't your typical Chinese food joint. I…read morewas impressed by the visuals. Plus it was super clean. Not sure how old the interior photos are on their Yelp reviews but looks better in person. Dude running the place was waiting on tables, answering the phones, taking orders at the front, bossing people around in the back and bringing the food out of the kitchen and serving it HOT! He was a one man show today and killing it! Plus he was so nice. About the food. I ordered an Eggroll and Curry Chicken with fried rice. The eggroll was not the best I've had but it was good. It tasted fresh and no signs of the red pork that you sometimes get (thumbs up).The Curry Chicken sauce was really good. The chicken was nice and tender, the vegetables were fresh and crisp. My only complaint would be to not serve green peppers with the yellow curry sauce. It's my own personal preference because peppers give me heartburn. I will go back for sure to try some other dishes and I would definitely recommend to anyone looking for relaxing ambiance and fresh, delicious Chinese cuisine.

We didn't order them this time, but they're definitely on the list for a future visit. Everything we did get was packed with flavor. The crab rangoons and pork dumplings arrived hot and fresh, and the Dan Dan noodles, orange chicken, chicken chow fun, and garlic beef were all very tasty. One of the biggest positives here is consistency of flavor, something that's been surprisingly hard to find with a lot of Chinese takeout spots we've tried in the area. The only real miss for us is that egg foo young isn't on the menu, which my wife loves and always hopes to find. That aside, this is a super solid takeout option for flavorful, authentic, and fresh Chinese food.

I wish there were more stars so I could give it a 10/10…read more Chinese is one of my favorite foods and China Best consistently steps up as one of my favorites in Greensboro. The food is always fresh and hot and I would say average priced. I love that the wings aren't overly breaded and they are seasoned to the bone-they definitely taste marinated. On this visit I got wings and egg foo yung. The gravy is the perfect combo of savory and salty pairing perfectly with the crisp and flavorful fried egg. The staff is very efficient and their wait times are spot on. Parking can be a little tricky in the shopping center but overall decent.

This restaurant has been in town for years. I went to it once during pandemic because Golden Dragon…read moreon battleground Avenue was closed. Let me be clear for those who think that this is New York Chinese cuisine. It most certainly is not. If you want your standard fair good authentic Chinese cuisine, go to Golden Dragon. That restaurant is closed because I believe the family goes on vacation for about a month a year. They will reopen on July 21, 2026 Good for them. They work hard and they give their customers quality service. Golden Dragon has been around for decades and has always given its customers great food and service. Since Golden Dragon was closed, I decided to decided to try China's Best yesterday to order a family meal. I did it online to avoid any confusion on what we wanted. And was told that there would be a 15 minute wait. Lo and behold, we get there and we wait an additional 20 minutes. When we come home to eat the meal, virtually, nothing is edible with the exception of premade egg rolls and the orange chicken. The pork fried rice we ordered was substandard. I have never had boneless barbecue ribs that were so overly salty and sweet in my life; not to mention being overcooked and having a slightly burnt taste. The fried chicken wings were overcooked and hard. The sweet-and-sour chicken ordered was overcooked and hard; with only a half container of sweet-and-sour sauce included. There was no soy sauce or duck sauce included with the meal whereas usually Chinese restaurants put those condiments out for customers to get at their discretion. I don't know about you, but I like money. So when I pay $56 for a takeout order which I paid gas for to travel to get; only to find that it was an unacceptable mess of a meal, I tend to to appear, to say the least, disappointed. Whoever cooked this meal saw what they were giving their customer and appeared to be completely fine with short changing that customer. Unacceptable! There are plenty of restaurants in Greensboro to go to who strive to give their patrons a quality meal. So I give the biggest word of caution to those entertaining the idea of going to China's Best. DON'T GO!

In all the years we have been getting takeout, never had an issue with the accuracy of our orders. They have nice sized crispy breaded wings. Their fried wontons and crab rangoons are also good picks. I chuck them in the air fryer because the sweaty containers do make them a bit flat by the time you make it home. Egg rolls are what you expect. Hunan chicken is not very spicy but has a good flavor. Lo meins are good, too. Food cost are up everywhere. 2 combo plates, small order of wings, and wontons set me back $42. The extra $4.00 upcharge on the combo for house lo mein versus chicken was unexpected (dinner combo is already $10.75) but I didn't ask and the girl answering the phone didn't offer so that's on me. Lesson learned. Next time, I will stick with the chicken. If you liked Mr. Wonton back in the 90's you will like them, too. Similar cooking style and portions.

I'll be honest--I avoided China Cafe for a while because of the older Yelp reviews. But last night…read moreI needed something quick, ordered on DoorDash, and I'm really glad I gave them a chance. Everything I ordered was actually solid. The lo mein? Chef's kiss. The noodles were cooked perfectly, nice and saucy, and they even offered it spicy--which I've never been offered before. The meat was tender and well-seasoned. Personally, I wouldn't mind a little more cabbage in it, but that's just preference. The fried chicken wings really surprised me. Usually I end up throwing wings in the air fryer to crisp them up more--but not these. They were already crispy, fresh, and flavorful straight out the container. Now let me talk about the sweet and sour chicken... I've NEVER been a fan. I always thought it looked too breaded and soggy, so I avoided it for years. When I opened my order and realized that's what I got, I was low-key annoyed but decided to try it anyway. And wow--that ended up being my favorite item. The sauce was perfect, and once I dipped it myself, it completely changed my mind about sweet and sour chicken. The soup was also really good--super flavorful with that rich broth and those sesame oil "gold spots" on top (you know it's good when you see that). The only thing I wasn't big on was the plain fried rice--but that's more of a personal preference since I usually don't go for plain fried rice anyway. Next time I'll try the house fried rice. Overall, I'm pleasantly surprised. This was a great experience, especially for a last-minute order. I'll definitely be ordering again--and next time I'll come back with pictures because this was a spur-of-the-moment decision. China Cafe, you proved me wrong
