For Naples, finding decent Chinese food can feel like searching for an oasis in the desert, which…read moreis why Chinatown remains one of the better options in town. The menu leans Cantonese, and the more traditional dishes are generally the strongest. While the kitchen still caters somewhat to Western tastes, diners willing to venture beyond the standard takeout favorites will find several authentic offerings worth trying. If you're looking for a whole steamed fish or other specialty dishes, be sure to call ahead, as not everything is available on short notice. The service is friendly and attentive, and the staff has always been welcoming. Is it exactly like dining in Hong Kong or Guangzhou? Not quite. But for Southwest Florida, it's a solid choice when you're craving authentic Cantonese flavors and a break from the usual Americanized Chinese fare. Rating: 4/5 A reliable spot for traditional Cantonese dishes in a town where good Chinese food can be hard to find.

It was served within 5-7 minutes with white rice and an extra bowl of sauce. It was the best Pepper Steak I've eaten in more than 20 years. It was so flavorful, a hint on garlic and a bit of sweetness along with savory. The onions were just beginning to carmelize, the peppers were still crisp but starting to soften. The beef was tender and not chewy. Everything was hot and they continued to check on us to make sure we were happy with our meal. I can't say enough about a great experience and perfect food!

One of our neighbors used to live in the area and recommended anything in Tin City for lunch. We walked to Tin City from the free parking structure just off 5th Avenue and, while we found the area mildly interesting, we didn't like any of the typical joints along the water. Besides, having eaten at Dockside in Venice the day prior, we were looking for something other than seafood. In looking at Yelp, we were intrigued by Ichi Togarishi so we walked back towards 5th Avenue. Located just off 5th Avenue, this small place would be quite easy to miss. Upon entering, we realized how snug this place was. We were seated promptly and presented the menu. My wife ordered the Chicken Veggie Shoyu Soy Ginger and I had the Chashu Belly Garlic Noodle. We both liked our dishes, with complex, bold flavors. The Chashu belly was tender with sweetness and soy flavor shining thru. Its flavor profile reminded me of Pad Thai. A very nice find in Naples!

If I could give ZERO stars I would! NOT BY ANY MEANS FAMILY FRIENDLY! I am so disgusted by this place. My mother and father are locals and frequent customers here, at least they were until now. I was in town with my 2 year old daughter and we decided to go there for dinner a night. We walked in, sat down at a booth and naturally my 2 year old started playing with the container with sugar packets. Immediately, I am talking within seconds, the manager comes over and says "I'm going to have to take the sugar away". We looked at each other and laughed thinking he was joking. He was not. He walked away to answer a phone then signaled a worked over to our table to take the sugar away. If you have kids you know that you'll do anything to keep your kid entertained to enjoy a meal in peace. Something as simple as playing with sugar packets was not allowed. How much could those sugar packets have costed. A few cents? If they are at my table do I not have the right to use them? Say I want to enjoy all of those in my tea at the end of my meal. Would he need to take them away then too? I hope whoever that rude man was is reading this and I hope you are so EMBARRASSED! You embarrassed my family and that's why we left. You will never get mine, my families, our friends business. Also being a social media influencer I will make sure people are aware that your establishment is NOT FAMILY FRIENDLY! Good luck to you and your business. I hope you lighten up a little. read more

Golden Leaf Chinese Restaurant in Naples, Florida, is a great spot for anyone craving authentic and delicious Chinese cuisine. Despite its modest size and unpretentious decor, this place delivers on every front. The service is friendly and attentive which is a huge plus! The real highlight here is the food. Golden Leaf's dishes have a comforting, familiar taste that might remind you of Chinese restaurants up north. What's more, the prices are exceptionally reasonable, offering great value for the quality of food you receive. Whether you're a local or just passing through, Golden Leaf is worth the drive. read more

The genersl tso chicken was my final decision after debating between that, the sesame chicken or the Singapore mei fun. My dad is sometimes hard to please with takeout food, and it's not only just Chinese food takeout but with everything. Here is our entire review of Super Wok after not going for 4 years: The chop suey was a hit- the pork slices were tender and the portions and temperature were perfect. Only comment: dad said he could've done without the overload of the onions. I tried some myself and it was absolutely delicious. The crab Rangoon's were *chefs kiss* delicious and the sauce that came with really was good. The general tso chicken was, again, a huge portion and piping hot. Some pieces were dry, or just consisted of the breading...but the majority of the pieces were juicy. I wish more sauce was put on though. I would get it again for sure though! Great service, the food was ready pretty fast, and the restaurant front area was clean and organized well.
