Food-wise: the chicken was good (and very hot/steaming). The crab puffs were nicely fried--super crisp--but the filling was basically just cream cheese. Even a little seasoning (or a touch of crab) would make them a lot better. Fried rice and white rice were fine. The egg rolls tasted very "pre-made/wholesale/Sysco truck." I'm giving it a 3 mainly because I like the staff and I'm willing to give it one more try. My wife and kid said they're out, never again. I also hate how they shamed the bad tipper. Not the cleanest well kept place.

So when I read the reviews I was like Ok going with an open mind. BTW I went yesterday and I…read morestarted this thing last year where I just order some big meal for my birthday. So I went in and yes I was a bit surprised by the place and said Oh no..but I was already there and every other Chinese takeout around the area were closed. I've never tried the Singapore noodles but always read it's the best thing to order when ordering takeout and had my mind set on that. So the girl at the register mentioned Curry but I've never tried that before so I said sure...let's do it. I mentioned it was my birthday and how this was my "bday dinner" not to get anything free just making small talk. Without hesitation she went and grabbed a drink and said here you go.It's not much but it was a very nice gesture. So I live about 30+min from the restaurant and wasn't expecting much since I've been let down before by takeout places. When I got home and opened the boxes I was surprised by the amount. Most places around the area from Waller to Sealy will give you maybe a scoop of their food. When I tell you that this will be my go to place now. The food was delicious. Singapore noodles are now my fav. At first,like most people,I went a bit crazy on my seasoning. It honestly didn't need any of the extra soy I added. I'm more of a steamed rice but forgot to ask. Not saying this one was bad.Wish I got into my egg roll sooner cus it got soggy but again it's a 30min drive but that's on me. I did save a bit to have some leftover today. Wish I had saved more but it was so good I ate most of it. Definitely recommend this place.

There wasn't much to choose from in the buffet. Everything was made in small portions which I understand but again.. should've kept just the menu and saved a lot of money. I tried to get the chicken on a stick and every time since they do small portions there was non left. Actually one lady kept taking most of them. Food was also bland. Husband got sick he mentioned the sushi but idk. When they asked for our drink we asked for beers and after that idk if it's owner and sons but they just kept giving us bad looks it was very weird.

I just had their salt and pepper tofu and felt absolutely compelled to leave a positive review. Let…read moreme explain. I've known about Golden Imperial since it opened. Back then, I hated it. Everything I got on the buffet was super mid, borderline, yucky. I think buffets are really just hard things to do correctly in general. But then, during the pandemic, they switched to made-to-order and it's like the clouds parted and shined blessings upon them. One of my friends told me to give them another chance after the switch and I'm so glad she did! Despite how Americanized-Chinese they are, their dishes are great! The only thing that kept me from writing a review earlier is that I really dislike sweet entrees. I don't like orange chicken. Why do I want a dessert for my meal? Why would I want a sweet protein? Even my go-to Chinese-American curry dish at Golden Imperial is pretty sweet. Part of that has to do with the fact that the only vegetable they use in the curry is onion (where are the silky smooth potatoes and carrots that are usually in Chinese curry?!), but I thought it was still passable compared to everything else. And then I ordered salt and pepper tofu. I'm not a vegetarian anymore, but I still appreciate a tofu or vegetable dish, so if I'm getting take out, I usually order one meat, one veggie. Oh. My. God. The S&P tofu... So savory, so tangy, so much umami (y'all know that MSG is amazing, right? It's not unhealthy! That was just racist propaganda). It's addicting. I can't wait to have it again even though I was absolutely stuffed after both times I ate the one entree I ordered (Golden Imperial portions aren't cheap but they are filling - you can get at least 2 meals out of one order - I wouldn't pay almost $20 per entree if I couldn't stretch it). So, this is all to say, if you want Asian food that doesn't taste like it could've been on the menu at Baskin Robbins, explore what Golden Imperial has to offer. While I'm disappointed by the curry, I still like it. And the Salt and Pepper tofu just taught me that I need to see what other gems they have to offer. If you know what Homer Simpson daydreaming about a donut looks like, that's me thinking about the next time I can get S&P tofu. Yay Golden Imperial! Please keep it up and if you can, tell us which things on the menu aren't full of sugar. It would really help change what's on your "popular" list. Americans, especially small town Americans, just aren't adventurous when it comes to food. Tell us what to try and we'll try it but if you don't, we're just gonna order what we always order or what is on the menu at that drive-thru "Chinese" place. You're better than that! You're a hometown hero. We want to support you.
