I lived in the NYC area for 30 years so the bar for Chinese food was very high. After moving back to Cinci, i can say that is the best Chinese food i have found in Cincinnati and maybe the best chinese food i've ever had. The S&S chicken is juicy and everything i've tried so far has been very flavorful and delicious as opposed to a lot of the bland Chinese food in this area. I won't go anywhere else for Chinese now. read more

We intended to go to another restaurant in this shopping center but they were closed for vacation so we went here for the first time. They were quick with the order. The restaurant was clean inside, as was the bathroom. Two people seemed to be managing service, a young man and an older woman. (Maybe both were family??) We had lunch inside and ordered take out for someone who did not come with us. The Hot and Sour Soup was not spicy. The stirfrys we had were okay (but not great.) The one we took home with us, for an elderly relative, a pork and vegetable dish, was loved by the person who got it. The older woman at the counter had suggested that and it was a good suggestion. Ask her for help if you need help choosing. She knows what they sell and made a great choice. read more

My main go to Chinese restaurant in the Cincinnati area. Family owned and great service. I only get the typical American style dishes which are the best around in my opinion. Sesame chicken and garlic fried rice is my favorite read more

I'm a regular there. Good food with half portions of many. Lunch specials have half portions plus crab rangoon and rice. Dinner specials have half portions and rice and an egg roll. read more

I have gotten takeout from here probably 6 times or so and every time the food has been spectacular! I get Home Style Bean Curd (the brown sauce is amazing) and Garlic Fried Rice and Cheese Wontons. The Garlic Fried Rice is something I've never seen at a Chinese restaurant before and it's kept me coming back since the first time I had it, I highly recommend! I had an exceptionally good experience tonight with them. I placed an online order for pickup an hour in advance and it wasn't quite ready when I got there (I also work in the service industry, I know this is often out of their control so I was not upset). When I got home I realized the meal my spouse ordered had the wrong protein and the fried rice was plain and not garlic (I was disappointed but not angry with the restaurant, mistakes happen and they were busy!). I called the store and the woman on the phone was so polite and helpful, she offered to replace the items and have one of their employees deliver it to me at no charge. I ALWAYS appreciate when effort is made to right the situation and with a friendly attitude! Thank you Golden Dragon for always serving me delicious food and outstanding service!! read more

Golden Dragon White Oak - Home Style Bean Curd, Garlic Fried Rice, Mei Fun Noodle Soup with chicken (soup broth not pictured), crab Rangoon - Chinese Near Me - Cincinnati, Ohio

This place isn't that good. I am picky when it comes to Chinese restaurants and this one is not making the cut. Wonton soup was bland and fried cheese wontons were uninspiring. They were quick with the order. The place seemed okay inside. Not coming back. read more

Family ordered four different dinners and all were delicious. Not too salty like most common Chinese restaurants and the portion sizes are large for the order, easily plan on leftovers! Fast, convenient, and delicious. read more

My grandmother is a huge fan of Chinese cuisine and this is her go-to spot to get it. My mom and I took her here for lunch one weekend following a church service, and the food was pretty decent. Menu is expansive, with weekday lunch specials around $8 for soup, entree, rice, and egg roll. Weekend visits have a similar half-portion dinner special for around $10. Protein choices include beef, pork, and shrimp. We stuck to the familiar and got the pork & vegetable, chicken & vegetable, and shrimp & vegetable specials (all had different sauces to complement the protein) with fried rice ($1 upcharge). Food was hot and fresh, I personally didn't care for the canned mushrooms and thought fried rice was plain. Service is welcoming, seems to be family owned, much of their business is takeout. read more

Probably is the best Chinese you can get around. It doesn't look impressive inside. This is just a strip mall. It makes up for the poor setting with impressive food. The amount of food you get is great for its price. It looks like your average strip mall Chinese place from the outside. Inside it's not great looking, but it's much better than the usual dining room. The tables are covered with tableclothes. It has many of the same items you find everywhere. They do these better though. I had the Hunan Bean Curd. This is about $7 for the lunch portion. It does lots of carryout. It has a nice dining room so maybe eat inside. They are popular for delivery too. read more

Golden Dragon White Oak - Hunan Bean Curd - Chinese Near Me - Cincinnati, Ohio

Over priced with crazy SMALL portions zero customer service just rude people avoid . Food quality is your standard mall Chinese

i ordered 1 egg roll it as lacking in the filling the cream cheese wontons were ok, I have had better frozen egg rolls. The chicken lo mein didn't have much flavor. I had a hard time finding the chicken & vegetables. The Empress chicken, the chicken was overcooked & the breading was more like chicken skin. Ii will not 0ot order from this restaurant again. I unfortunately spent close to $50 dollars, I should have just thrown the money in garbage . read more

Great service (pick up) very friendly and food was delicious. Loved shrimp fried rice too. Even fortune cookie was good

Wow- love beef with my onions when I order Mongolian Beef. Not sure if they were out of beef or not, but it was a lot of fricking onions. The "green tea" was black. I didn't drink it. White rice was okay. I'm not coming back. read more

I had a taste for Lo Mein and was in the area. The noodles were a deep dark brown, I believe b/c of sauce or something, but the flavors were unrecognizable. It was not good. The owner also wanted to charge me $2 for tiny sized pictured but its free if you request the food spicy. Nice people, bad food. read more

Customer for years... Mama Ooi outstanding! Always great service & food great as well. Prefer chicken fried rice & General Tso chicken dinner. Egg Rolls the best. Recommend a visit! read more

A classic fast food Chinese restaurant, great service and the lady is very nice. Food here is great, hits the spot anytime i have a Chinese food craving. Food will always be ready 15-20mins. read more

Great food and great service. We had the golden dragon romance for two. It was huge. We could have used a little more rice but that's just us. We also had the moo shu pork, my favorite. Probably the best hot n sour soup in the city. read more

Best Chinese in white oak and a super friendly staff that will remember you. Limited delivery area but luckily we are in it.

My low rating is NOT because of the food, which was pretty good. But ugh... the televisions. Unless you are a sports bar, it's an atmosphere killer. Still, the reason I came to Yelp to share my feedback is because of the programs being shown. I was there with my niece and nephew and the programs were completely inappropriate for young children. Murders on the evening news. Hollywood gossip on Access Hollywood or something equally as awful. I don't want to see that crap, and I certainly don't want to expose them to it. I will never bring them back. Get the take-out. read more

Me and My Mother experience for the 1st time from this place rudeness. They messed up our order that we always order. I'm a vegetarian so it's not much I can choose from. The Main lady act like there's Nothing she can do. We're loyal costumers. She wasn't concerned at all and brushed us off the phone. We didn't receive eating utensils or napkins or anything. This was a very bad experience with them today. And with their attitudes I do Not recommend them in the future. I give them plenty of business and My orders aren't cheap. To Be treated as if my time and money don't matter is very offensive. read more

Very small restaurant but when we went (on a Sunday evening) there was only one other table so we were fine. Not the best Chinese food I've ever had, but it was pretty tasty! The service was excellent and the food came out fast! read more

Great food with pleasant staff. We'll be heading back for sure now that we have found a good Chinese place. The restaraunt itself is small but has what you need to enjoy a meal. Good stuff. read more

Over priced garbage. Togo order of tso chicken. Way over cooked chewy and hard as if it sat under a heat tray all day and they push it out the door. Your food is crap. I'll travel further for my food. This is over priced garbage read more

This is my favorite Chinese restaurant in Cincinnati. We had the chicken fried rice, boneless bbq, chicken wings and cream cheese wontons it all tasted amazing. I struggled for years finding a good Chinese restaurant in Cincinnati and I have finally found it. This is officially my one and only Chinese restaurant. read more

First off, I'm not a fan of Chinese food. In fact fried rice is the only dish I'll eat on a regular basis. That being said, Golden Dragon has the best in the city hands down! When I lived on the west side a week didn't go buy that I wasn't placing an order to go. Now I'm on the east side and its definitely worth the drive. Since I've only placed orders to go the TVs don't bother me. I guess its a testament to the number of times I've been there that I don't need to speak when I call, it sort of goes like this "Hello Dennis, you want the chicken fried rice, it'll be ready in 10 min." It's never ready in 10 min, more like 15 or 20, but I don't mind. She says everything will be ready in 10 min, lol. read more

This place is right down the street and conveniently located next to my gym. When I had a mad craving for Chinese food- we would call in here. As my husband will only eat fried rice, he has no preference for where Chinese comes from. I tried many things on the menu, and never found anything that was super delicious. Nothing was bad- but nothing was exceptional, either. I found another place nearby that I preferred, but it is a bit further out of my way. Last week- I was feeling exceptionally lazy and decided I hadn't tried this place in a while. I gave them a call for a pick up order and they told me it would be 30 minutes. That's the longest wait I've ever had for Chinese, but I was fine with that. When I went to pick it up- the staff were attentive and very friendly! The restaurant is nice and clean, and decorated exactly how most American- Chinese restaurants usually look. Several tables were full of patrons. I ordered the hot and sour soup- which is usually a pretty good way to start my meal. This one was ok, but not particularly spicy. I got a shrimp spring roll, which was my favorite part of the meal, cream cheese wontons, which were also pretty good, and the garlic chicken. Upon opening an order of garlic chicken, I expect for the garlic to be a strong, pungent smell- which it definitely was not. I made my plate and was completely underwhelmed with flavors. It honestly tasted like there was no seasonings at all.... much less garlic. I remember why I hadn't gone back in a while- and will continue to visit the other place I've found... even if it is a bit further away. read more

The food is great, the staff friendly and yes it's small but for cripes sake people get over yourselves about two TV's...y'all prolly sitting on your cell phones anyway! How triffling! Thai lettuce wraps are the bomb..never a bad meal here! read more

Terrible. Don't eat here. Overpriced by $3 to $5 per entre and food is consistently bad. From stir fry dishes to fried entree's there is NOTHING good here. read more

I received the most disappointing dish of chicken fried rice I've ever had. It was didn't seem to have any seasoning and the chicken tasted very odd. It was inexpensive, but $5 could've gone better spent anywhere else. read more

Sad but true. At one time this was one of the best chinese restaraunts in the the city. The flavors have dropped off, as well as the portion sizes. Prices have grown as well.. It was so good before. read more

Food is wonderful. Always delicious. Been going here for years and love the food and service. Wonderful family. Highly recommend.

If I could give a negative review I would. I use to be a loyal customers for years and last Monday I ordered chicken with brocoli....but received Beef and brocoli? How hard is it to make sure orders are correct? I called back and a guy said they are busy what my name and number and they would remake it when ever I wanted. I called intoday March 28th and they said they have no record of my order and could not and will not re make my order!!! I have spent my whole lunch break arguing with the so called manager... I have never met a more rude disrespectful person in my whole life!!!! I will be reporting this to the better business bureau! I hope your happy u lost a customer over a mistake your store did..... This is not the last time you hear from me! read more

It's a shame that yelp only goes to 5. Quite often you'll find good hole in the wall chinese places that pass as good food at a cheap price. Occasionally you find some "gourmet" chinese places that charge a premium for food that is of a higher quality, but over thought and over executed. Golden Dragon is the extremely rare Chinese place that is cheap, well prepared, and very well executed. The storefront is very small, seating only maybe 30 people at a time, but takeout is extremely quick (and they often use caller ID to remember your name/previous orders!). The price is very cheap (6 bucks for lunch, less than 10 for dinner!), and the food is GREAT. I've seldom seen good seafood dishes at many chinese places, but my sister has routinely had great shrimp, fish, and tofu related dishes. Personally, the General Tso's chicken can not be beat and they will make it as spicy as you want. Side note - I've yet to cut into a big piece of chicken from Golden Dragon, and have it not be high quality chicken - not of the mall food court dark meet that you often find. The fried rice is great, the hong kong chicken is fantastic, and the lo mein is thick and full of flavor. Seriously cannot go wrong here, and it's one of the few places that is an absolutely must try. read more

Over priced, tasteless food! Warm beer, served with hot glass. Gratuity added to check automatically!

Not good food. Very poor representation of Chinese food. Not sure how they generate repeat business????????

The staff is so friendly and the food is always incredible! The veggie egg rolls are my favorite!

This Golden Dragon Restaurant is -ok- I do a lot of take-out here sometimes for our office or a quick and easy dinner. It would be nice if they had Wi-Fi then I might be more inclined to go there for meetings. Be careful about what you order...in thinking its one cost or the other because they sometimes have hidden cost. They try to be friendly but I'm sorry I think its disingenuous it seems fake and it turns me off. The menu items are tasty and the quality has always been consistent . read more

I have driven past this place a thousand times and had never even considered going inside. In general a little restaurant within an old strip shopping center is just not what I look for. BUT it was late on Christmas Eve and many other places were closed so I took a chance. I WILL be coming back more often. The place was bright, clean, and tastefully decorated. The service was very friendly and fast. The food arrived quickly and was hot and delicious. It was also very reasonable in price. Now I feel silly for missing out for so long. Be back very soon. read more
