Very expensive compared up other places but this is definitely the best tasting Chinese food in the area.

I've lived in Westfield for more than 20 years. I probably tried Golden Peacock about 15 years ago, and the experience was so disappointing that we ended up throwing most of the food away. Tonight, I found myself home alone and hungry, and after seeing so many positive reviews, I decided to give them another chance. The staff were very friendly, but I noticed the same unusual smell I remembered from years ago. I ordered Combo A: General Tso's Chicken, Pork Fried Rice, and Crab Rangoon. The pork fried rice was underwhelming. The pork was tough, and the flavor seemed to be little more than soy sauce. It was mostly rice with a few onion slices and pieces of pork. The General Tso's Chicken was disappointing as well. There was very little actual chicken and a lot of batter. The sauce was brown in color and tasted nothing like the General Tso's sauce I've had elsewhere. It lacked flavor, and aside from a single piece of pepper, there were no vegetables. The Crab Rangoon was okay. The texture was different from what I'm used to, but it was edible. Overall, I found it to be an $18.75 meal that was largely inedible. While I appreciate the friendly service, the food simply wasn't for me, and unfortunately my second visit didn't change my opinion. read more

Golden Peacock - 15. Chicken Teriyaki (2), Sesame Chicken and Pork Fried Rice - Chinese Near Me - Westfield, Massachusetts

Other reviews were absolutely right! This restaurant definitely serves the best chinese food in this area. Portions are huge. Food was delicious. Didn't know it until we ordered way too much, but enjoyed every bite. Place was packed on Mother's Day. Although it is a ride for us, it was certainly worth the trip. This restaurant will definitely be our go-to. read more

Best chicken fingers around!! Love golden peacock and will always come back here! Busy

Ordered chicken fingers pork fried rice boneless ribs. fingers and rice were ok boneless ribs were all fat and grizzle read more

Great fruendly service and some of the best teriyaki and boneless ribs I've had. They both were tender and juicy with great flavor. I ordered the generals' chicken extra spicy and they nailed it. Also did a pupu platter for 1 appetizer and it was excellent. My only complaint was most of the food wasn't very hot, just warm. Otherwise, it would have been 5 stars. I still think it was some of the best Chinese food I've had we will definitely be back. read more

Good food Friendly staff Worth it worth the 45 minute drive I get lunch #14 general tso chicken and egg roll and rice So good Portions got a bit smaller then they use to be but still worth it and not bad on price read more

We tried Golden Peacock last Friday and boy were we surprised!!! They were absolutely delicious. When we got there there was only 2 tables occupied. That was short lived. The next thing you knew just about every table was full. Also people were lined out the door waiting for their orders to go. When our order arrived it was absolutely delicious. We haven't had pork fried rice this good in years. We will be going back there again in the future. read more

Food is always solid, and woman who answers phone and gets orders together is a hoot .

This place was the best in the area for years, it has gone so far down hill as far as quality and friendliness of the owner. I order a combo dinner which included PORK FRIED RICE, pork lo mein and beef teriyaki, when ordering I asked instead of pork lo mein in my combo dinner can I do beef lo mein...."no problem". Get my order home there was limited beef lo mein and no PORK FRIED RICE. I called the restaurant to let them know they forgot my pork fried rice and the asshole owner got up set at me and claims cause I switched from pork lo mein to beef low mein the combo dinner is no longer the meal anymore therefore I get no rice. So long story short, they are cheap and ignorant and the quality of food has been going down hill for the last couple of years and it's a shame cause it was very very good at one point. Now me and all my neighbors go to West Lake Gourmet, a little bit more of a drive, but you know you're getting good quality and friendly service....don't waste your money at Golden Peacock read more

It's an out of the way place has pretty good food service is fast a pretty good amount of food never had a bad meal there

This place was a surprise. We have been looking for Vegan options and did not see Golden Peacock mentioned. Some of the places that were on the vegan search were disappointing. We were in the area for other shopping and decided to try, not expecting much. Golden Peacock had several vegan options. The food was well prepared. The vegetables were crisp and perfect. The service was friendly and helpful for takeout. Will definitely return! read more

The last thing I ordered from Golden Peacock was the pu pu platter for two. While ordering, the lady taking the order mentioned, perhaps accidentally, a substitution fee if I chose identical items for the first and second orders (my kids wanted chicken fingers for both). I told her charging a substitution fee for identical items made no sense, but she said it is their policy. Note that I have been ordering from this restaurant for years and had never been told of this fee until now. This leads me to wonder how many times I have been charged this ridiculous fee in the past. I don't believe the receipt is itemized, so unless a customer did the math, he or she would not realize that it is being tacked on. Aside from being charged a substitution fee for an order where nothing was substituted, the quality of the food is decent, if not overly greasy. Considering their relatively high prices compared to the competition and lack of a delivery option, the secret substitution fee leaves a "bitter taste" in my mouth. I will be taking future business elsewhere. read more

Best Chinese around for sure. Only place I will get food from and they never disappoint

Never again!!! I ordered orange chicken and got something unidentifiable. I called and was told that there is no such thing as orange chicken in traditional Chinese cooking. I was further informed that their version of orange chicken is General Tao's chicken minus the hot peppers. It was made of pieces of mostly dried out dark meat chicken. Awful. The egg roll was soggy and flavorless. The crab Rangoon and the Lo Mein were fair. read more

The best Chinese ever! We travel 40 minutes just for it and never disappointed....best hot chili oil out there!

Was hoping for better. Ordered the generals chicken extra spicy with egg roll and wonton soup. The chicken was pretty bad, the breading tasted and felt old like it was reheated or has been sitting around and there wasn't a single hot pepper to be seen anywhere. The pork fried rice was almost exclusively rice. The egg roll was really good at least and the server was friendly. Will not be returning. read more

Golden Peacock - Generals chicken, egg roll and pork fried rice - Chinese Near Me - Westfield, Massachusetts

Golden Peacock is hands down the best Chinese food in the area. My favorites are the scallion pancakes, hot and sour soup, and fried pork dumplings. Great service and prices too. read more

Stopped by for a late lunch. Perused the menu seeing the normally offered dishes most Chinese places serve up. Chose the #9 dinner which was General Tsao' s chicken, pork fried rice, eggroll, & choice of wonton or chicken rice soup. My order came out promptly. My eyes actually widened (See photo) when the plate was delivered. Very generous portions and the egg roll was huge ! Taste was great and the plate presented nicely. Definitely good bang for the buck ! :) read more

If you are looking for a no nonsense, no frills place with pretty good Chinese food, you found it. Not too greasy, ample portion, super friendly service (our waitress was so bubbly and helpful), and the price is right... Don't come for the ambiance, get it to go (I recommend the beef teriyaki and the general tso) and go cuddle up at home with whatever ya like, binge a show and just enjoy. Don't overthink it. read more

My first time going and I got take out. #10 dinner and it came with soup. Boneless spare ribs, fried rice, 2 deep fried pork, 2 deep fried shrimp, and an egg roll. Too much food for one sitting. We ordered when we arrived and sat down to wait. It didn't take too long. You could taste the freshness in the food. Hands down the best Chinese food I've had in a long time. read more

My favorite go-to Chinese Restaurant, ive been going here since I was a kid and the food has always been excellent (the drinks are good and decently priced too), the service is great the owners/ servers have been around for ever they ever remember you by name. Highly recommend! read more

Food is great typical Chinese restaurant. They have combos where you get to choose exactly what you'd like rather than having to choose a premise combo you might not necessarily love. The waitress here is the best part! She is so full on energy and hilarious. She has never not been here anytime I've gone so you are sure to see her! The golden fingers are my favorite! read more

I recommend going to Golden Peacock. The restaurant was more busy than usual. But the waiters were trying there best. The restaurant was a little dark and the doorway was really small but it was nice and clean. When the food came out it was steamy and smelled delicious. The lomein was steamy and smelled really good. The chicken fingers were golden brown and soft and savory. The beef teriyaki was sweet and savory at the same time. The pork was warm and sweet. The inside of the restaurant looked family friendly. There was many tables and booths so there was a lot of room for people. The cost of the food wasn't bad. We got 2 pupu platters, one pupu platter was around $20. The restaurant's parking lot was part of a big one so there will always be room for cars. read more

My wife and I have been going here for years. Food has always been excellent and last night was no exception. Probably the best hot and sour soup I ever had, thick, rich and a cure all for cold weather! We tried the appetizer #2, hot and sour soup,egg rolls and pork lo mein. Everything was so good we could not decide which item we liked the best! Generous portions so we are looking forward to a great lunch today. I would like to note take out was very very busy and the two girls did a wonderful job for the seated customers as well as the 7-9 people deep waiting for take out. GREAT JOB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! read more

Price is right here! The portions are great and the food is good. The only downside is they can get overwhelmed when they have to service several costumers at once. It's a family run restaurant, and they work with who they have on hand. Usually it's one person waiting on all the tables and if they happen to be busy, you'll wait a bit. read more

They are by far the best Chinese I've had in Westfield I used to only go to china star but they have gone down hill. Golden peacock is a bit out of my way I live on the other side of town but still I make it down here because it is that fantastic. I love their orange chicken and everything about this place actually! read more

OK food with typical fare. Nothing exciting. Staff is friendly but slow. Sometimes I think the server is also the cook.

We went to Golden Peacock for our New Years Eve dinner. It was crowded, but we got there just in time to grab a booth. Seeing as it was so busy, it took some time for the waitress to come to our table and take our order. We have been here in the past and the food has been WONDERFUL. So we went to place our order. We love the sesame tofu, and veggie lo mein, so we were going to order 2 of each. The waitress informed us that they had run out of tofu, so we decided on getting some veggie spring rolls with the lo mein, instead of the sesame tofu (which was really THE reason we went there in the first place). Unfortunately, the waitress decided to be honest with us and leaned in to let us know that they had not, in fact, run out of tofu, but that they "didn't have time" to cook it for us. As I mentioned before, they WERE very busy, but it really upset us that we could have ordered any meat product and they would have found the time to make that, but because we ordered tofu, our meal expectation was too much trouble for them. Once we found out the truth, we decided to leave without ordering anything. I'm even hesitant to go back. If we, as paying customers, aren't as important to them as someone ordering meat, then why would I want to spend my money there? It was very frustrating considering how long we had waited for the waitress to come take our order (it was over 35 minutes). We ended up going to another Chinese restaurant in town that had no problem accommodating our tofu order. If you offer a menu item, you should be willing to accommodate all dietary choices regardless of how busy you are. read more

This is some if the best around. There boneless ribs are the best. This is a must for Chinese food. The pork fried rice is always soft and fluffy. You may wait a little longer for food than most Chinese restaurant because the food is not precook and siting under a counter waiting to be reheated. They cook to order. I just wish they delivered. read more

I grew up 3 miles down the road and we went here all the time. I'm a bit of a Chinese food snob, so take my 5 stars seriously. This is your traditional Americanized Chinese food that we all love in Mass. Best dish...General Tso's chicken - always crispy, always a flavorful sauce (unlike any other I've had around). read more

Excellent Chinese food, by far the best around! Great portions that are never greasy... crab Rangoon, boneless spareribs, lo-main and veggies are always delicious! The staff here is wonderful as well:) read more

I've been eating here for years best Chinese food in Westfield. Fast service and always fresh food

Living here for about a year now have not had any better Chinese in the city of Westfield this

Eaten there a couple times with my guys form work. The food was ok. But the last time every one ended up with food poisoning.

Best Chinese food around! That being said, I will never order from them again. I often brought food home from the Golden Peacock but on New Year's Eve, I called and started my order: Won Ton Soup... ("no wonton soup") Oh dear! Well OK, Small House Lo Mein...("no small after 3 p.m.! limited menu") I started to argue that I've ordered the same things several times but finally said Well Forget it. He said "OK, Bye". !!!!???? read more
