A true local hidden gem! The Golden Dragon is a standout in every way. Unlike the typical steam-table "point point" spots, everything here is made fresh to order--and you can taste the difference in every bite. The dishes come out hot, flavorful, and clearly made with care. The lady at the front is incredibly friendly and welcoming, making you feel right at home the moment you walk in. And the prices? Unbeatable for the quality you get. Honestly, if I could eat here every day, I would. If you're looking for authentic, freshly made Chinese food with great service and amazing value, this place is a must-visit! read more

Good food. We enjoyed the spicy beed, pork, and the orange chicken. Love the amount of food for value. Two can eat the 2 item combo easily. Service is old school. Did not go in. Seems like an old school Chinese restaurant from the looks of it. It was a take out order. We do plan to come back! read more

My wife loves ordering from here. Our favorites are Salt&Pepper Shrimp, General Tso Chicken, Shrimp Chow Mein, Mongolian Beef and Mapo Tofu. Everything is good and quickly cooked after ordering. The Lady working there is very kind. read more

Have been a happy customer for years. One of my favorite restaurants. Love everything from this place, especially hot & sour soup when sick. Everything freshly cooked. Great portions, reasonable prices, not a sit down place but must have nonetheless. The husband (cook) and wife (cashier), nice people. read more

A bit expensive if you do the two-item combo but the two item were loaded with food. The quality of the food was okay, however. Walking into this establishment, it seemed more of a take-out place. The store was kind of gloomy on the inside. What do you expect from a Chinese-take-out place in terms of ambiance? The seemingly family-owned establishment cashier took my order and came back with my food in a short amount of time. Strictly business is the vibe I got from her. I ordered the chow mein with roasted char siu pork meat. It was good and will fill you up. However, I do not think it was good enough that I would drive out of my way just to get it; which is exactly what I did because I was curious about this place. My curiosity is now satisfied. read more

I always love the food here at Golden Dragon. I've been coming here for years. It's run by a couple. The wife works the front and the husband cooks. You must try this place if you haven't. The sweet and sour pork is my go to order. I also love the salt and pepper pork chops and walnut shrimp. That's just a few to recommend, but everything else I've tried was delicious! read more

This place is fire and underrated. Southsides best foreal !!! Customer service is on point , the lady is really nice. Always a good vibe when I go. read more

Food is always delicious! So many options to choose from! It's a family owned, small business which I prefer to support.

Average food and average service. It's cheap for a reason but the value is there. This is an mediocre spot if you have to have Chinese food.

Always good food. Been coming for years now. Everything is cooked to order so be prepared to wait a few. Owners are always nice. Take out only. read more

Pretty good. The only reason I gave it 4 stars is I'm on the hunt for the best chow mein in Oxnard. Lady very friendly. The place is very clean read more

The best Chinese restaurant in the area. Fresh ingredients, excellent flavor, good sized portions. Not really an "eat in" restaurant, take out is better. read more

Definitely a hole in the wall restaurant. If your not looking for it you won't find it, but if you go you'll be glad you did. The whole experience was really good. Place was clean and employees were kind. Food was out hot and quick. I got just one of the #24 and with tax it was $7.94 my buddy got the same and it was $11.52 with a drink. Always nice to support a local business and even better when the food is great My only complaint is that the Indoor seating area was closed/blocked off which was a little disappointing. I'm not sure if that's a "Covid" or "health" restriction they put into place. When waiting there's on 4 chairs spread far apart, so if you have kids or it's a little busy you'll most likely have to stand. All and all I'd rate the whole experience as a 4/5 stars. I'd go again but it's not something I'd eat everyday read more

I come here for 4 things: Salt and pepper pork chops (extra spicy) if you haven't had it, order it and thank me later. House combination chow mein House combination fried rice Fish with black bean sauce Great every time. They cook everything to order and nothing is sitting out like those shitty Chinese spots on saviers. Lol. I always call in an order and it's never takes more that 10-15 minutes. Even when i order 2-3 party trays of salt and pepper pork chops. read more

I have been eating at Golden Dragon for several years now and I have never had a bad meal. I have tried several different items off of their menu and they have all been delicious. Their meals have generous portions and everything is made fresh to order, unlike places like Panda Express where they use warming tables. It is like a 'fast-food' place when it comes to the speed of service due to the quickness of stir-frying, but the food isn't like fast-food. Their prices are also very reasonable. The business is owned by a husband and wife. The husband is the chef, and the wife runs the counter and takes the phone orders. Some people have commented that they think she is rude. I haven't found that to be the case at all. She is just very 'efficient' when taking orders over the phone. I always call my order in when I am getting ready to leave my house, and it is usually ready when I get there in about 10 minutes. I highly recommend this place for take-out Chinese food (no dine-in). read more

Tomato Beef curry a fav. We travel from SW Fresno to Dinuba to enjoy Golden Dragon. Fried shrimp a must have.

Been going to this restaurant since 7th grade. I'm now 25yrs old. Always has been a great spot to eat. Amazing people with big friendly welcomes as you you enter the business. The food is always fresh and plentiful. I personally recommend the sesame balls and green pepper chicken. Since Covid you're aren't able to sit in the dining area but it was lovely back when you were allowed. Overall 10/10 read more

Got orange chicken fried rice and chow mein with honey walnut shrimp on the side, everything was not great, tasted very Panda Expressy if you know what i mean, for an extra 6 dollars. Not great read more

BEWARE OF THIS PLACE!!! If I could give -1 star for BAD Customer Service I would! The female cashier was SO RUDE!!!! My mother tried to ask her (kindly) why she rang up $45+ for her order. She was trying to Overcharge my 85-year old mother and I didn't like the way this cashier tried to Rush things when no other customers was there. From the other Bad reviews I BELIEVE THEM since I was there to see how RUDE she is! I got so mad at this cashier I kept telling my mother we don't have to order anything from this place!! We left without giving them our business!! If you want REAL RESPECTFUL and HONEST Customer Service and Delicious Chinese food I HIGHLY RECOMMEND "Sesame Garden" in Camarillo, CA. They CARE about their customers and they make sure your order is Right and they do their best in making their customers Happy. You won't be disappointed! read more

The lady is a fast talker. BEWARE! She talks so fast I couldn't understand her and then got snippy when I asked her to repeat it. She had $18.49 rung up on the register before I had a chance to decide... she had basically TOLD me I was getting beef and broccoli with 4 egg rolls before I knew it. she wanted me to order Beef and broccoli and I had to correct her several times that I wanted chicken with veggies.. I asked her yo remove the egg rolls (I had no intension to order). she packaged up the food so fast and hurried me along, I was so frustrated I grabbed it and left . When I got back home, (yes I should of checked it before I left) you guessed it, I had beef and broccoli... very small portions . The food was good but the experience was a definite FAIL. Won't be returning to this place again. NO WAY FAST LADY! read more

Not pretty location but the food is good and fast. Very nice customer service and accommodating to special requests.

We were on the hunt for a mom and pop type place to grab some Chinese food and found this place on yelp. I always scroll to read all the bad reviews first to see if they have something in common. This one definitely had some bad reviews about the customer service but also had good reviews about the food. We arrived at the spot , And we were greeted right away by a sweet lady who offered her help right away . She did not rush us or pressure us to order . We looked over the menu and picked our food , orange chicken and kung pao chicken. We gave our order to the lady and she took it down and charged us correctly. She didn't try to rudely up sell us on anything , she did ask if we wanted egg rolls. Of course we said yes and don't regret it. She does speak a little fast but clearly that is due to her accent and not at all her trying to be like a car sales person and be shady. Customer service was superb and our food was made fresh and fast. We were in and out within 10min and our bill was under $20 . We thoroughly enjoyed our food and can't wait to go back. I believe the bad reviews are do to bad customers and their lack of manners, respect and patience. read more

Hands down! One of the best Chinese food in town. When you order they cook it fresh on the grill. There Salt Pepper Fish is exploding with flavor with every bite it feels like fireworks in your mouth. Great customer service from the staff. Parking can be kind of tight during busy hours. But other than that is a must try place. read more

Food was mid. Sold 4 out of 10. Ordered orange chicken, chicken teriyaki and chow mein, but the only issue I had was the chicken didn't look or taste like chicken and was probably pork. I didn't mind it but they didn't tell me and it also smelled like wet dog. The orange chicken was a solid 6/10, teriyaki meat 2/10, and noodle 4/10. The lady was very nice and the food serving was pretty big, but I'll probably never go there again. read more

They have Excellent food, and they are always friendly and provide fast service! Love this place!

I order a kongpao chicken. Very good taste .Authentic Chinese food. Absolutely come here again. I like it. read more

Perfect local hole in the wall restaurant! We love the food here! Everything is cooked to order so always fresh!! Dinner portions are great and easily feed our family of 6. The lady up front is always helpful at ordering and always makes you feel welcome! We will continue to support this business. read more

This place lacks the explanation of what their dishes actually come with. I ordered mushroom chicken the first time about 2 months ago and it was mushroom chicken and noodles for a little over $7 then tonight I ordered the same thing and I got NO NOODLES! Just mushroom chicken and a container of rice!!!! I called to inquire about it and was told to get the nooyyou must pay extra!!!! After them as already charging me $11.76 for this!!!! Then she told me we're closed now and HUNG UP!!!! VERY RUDE!!!! I guess they don't care to be nice to their customers! No worries I will not return again nor will I recommend this Restaurant either! Not good business sense! read more

Wasn't a fan of their food. Wasn't super flavorful in my opinion. Sushi was really good tho!

My review is only for the beef lo mein, a very simple and basic dish, which I thought was incredibly bland and tasted merely like onions. There was a good amount of beef and plenty of noodles; the only vegetables included are a few shreds of cabbage and onions. Edible? Sure. Enjoyable? For me, absolutely not. Thankfully, I ordered this merely to pair with another dish I bought elsewhere. I like how food is cooked-to-order, as it should be, and there is a lot to pick from--although it seems like Panda Express-like combinations are the more popular choices. Most items are reasonably priced albeit pricier than other places I've ordered from. The owner was also friendly. Unfortunately, compared to other places I've ordered from in the past, what I ordered was subpar. read more

Golden Dragon - Beef Lo Mein - Chinese Near Me - Oxnard, California

This has got to be the worst Chinese food in the area. I had ordered via telephone and had my husband pick it up. When we took a bite of the orange chicken, it tasted like the meat went bad. Now.. I figured, at least I could eat the white rice, surely it wouldn't be bad. I was wrong. It tasted like it was made in a rice cooker that hasn't been cleaned in ages. Almost mildew like. I called the restaurant to let them know it wasn't good and the lady hung up on me. I called back and she immediately started arguing with me. I ended up going in to give the food back and to ask for a refund. She ignored me and refused to even look at me. She kept me standing there for 30 minutes! And kept helping other people that were just walking in. I will never be returning. She was incredibly disrespectful and didn't care that her food literally tasted like garbage. What a shame. That food was NASTY. be careful when ordering here, you may fall sick read more

They stole 55 dollars from me and never gave me a refund , the lady was extremely rude when I went back to ask her for MY money and proceeded to tell me to call my bank DO NOT GO HERE UGH there's literally better places to go to I rlly don't know how it's still In business with the scam they be doing to people. And the food is also not that good. read more

If you want fast, good chinese party platters---their crispy spicy pork chop is THE BOMB. They have good chow mein too!

The portions are large. The flavors are delicious. The lady is quick to suggestive sell additional items and a bit hard to understand but she moves people quickly through the order process. read more

Top fast Chinese food place in the whole 805. Hot hot and fresh!!! That sesame chicken, orange chicken, salt and pepper chicken is fire. Hot hot and crispy. Kungpau chicken also a must try. read more

Love their salt pepper pork chops. Our family has been going here for years. The price is not bad and the owner is very pleasant.

The food is really good noodles are great and the orange chicken was delicious Staff are really nice etc.. read more

Beware the customer service is HORRIBLE, the lady in the front has a major attitude. She talks very fast and the next you know your order is wrong! She doesn't listen to the customer and if asked to repeat she get annoyed. Also, FYI please please check their license is in good order and up to date! we were ordering for an event & was not approved because their license expired for 3 yrs!!! they updated up but just check. We again ordered for a family event she did NOT listen and got the pickup date WRONG (3 days too early) . Even tho the food is good I'd rather frequent a business where they do not value customers!!!! read more

This place is very expensive and they take a long time for them to make you ur food.. I guess only come here if you want to wait around for your food city bowl is quicker read more
