Great food! I ordered delivery and everything came so fresh and delicious. I ordered the combo of…read morethe Shrimp with Broccoli, 4 Crab Rangoons, and Pork Fried Rice for $15.75. First of all, that is a pretty good price for that much food. There's definitely some places that have cheaper combos, but they usually have just a main dish, fried rice, and a single appetizer. 4 crab rangoons is a lot! Secondly, the amount of food that actually came in this order was massive. It is enough fried rice for at least two meals, and the shrimp with broccoli was a good portion as well. Third, the restaurant gave me a free egg roll on top of it! And lastly, the taste. The crab rangoons had scallions and imitation crab in them and were still very crispy. The egg roll had mostly veggies in it, but the duck sauce that came with the order is some of the best duck sauce I've had - it's not that orange or yellow stuff - it's the real deal made with the right proportions of apple sauce, vinegar, and sugar (and other things too?). But the point is that the duck sauce was GOOD. The pork fried rice was dark brown and the perfect New England style fried rice with bean sprouts (also not always included by other places) and BBQ pork. And the shrimp tasted actually really fresh and plump while the broccoli was crisp and absorbed the sauce well. All in all, 5/5 for sure - this is place is great!

I was apprehensive ordering from here because my go-to Asian places are usually those which serve…read moreSichuan cuisine. But it was a a rainy day and I really wanted some hot soup nearby. Along came golden house. We opted for the hot and sour soup, egg drop soup, and the veggie fried rice. The soup also came with packets of crunchy noodles to top it with (a nice touch!). The hot and sour soup was the tastiest of the lot. It had tofu, wood ear mushrooms, and other veggies. It wasn't really that sour, so I added vinegar to it. After that, it was perfect! The egg drop soup was true to its name, lots of egg, very comforting. With both soups though, it was quite thick and a little salty so we had to dilute them a bit, but that's easy enough. The veggie fried rice was...unexpected. The rice was yellow and also had large chunks of broccoli! It tasted fine but didn't feel like fried rice. Overall, this is a solid choice for when I want soup next time!

The service is always quick and efficient, making it easy to grab a bite without a very long wait. But let's be honest the food is what really matters most, right? I gladly make the trip just for what I call the "mother of all egg rolls" lol. It's massive, way bigger than your standard egg roll so you have to bite around it like you would a sub. It's always fresh, crispy, and packed with flavor. I order it every time without fail. Today, I decided to try the chicken fingers, but they were just okay nothing special at all. So I stuck to my egg roll, ate in my car since you can't eat inside. Restaurant appearance: 4/10 Egg roll: 8.5/10 If you're in the area, give it a try!

I've been coming here since 2002 and though I moved out of Boston in 2005, I make sure to come get an order everytime I'm in town. Good food, good portions, and most of all, GREAT Combination plates. My go combo is the D11. Chicken Fingers, Boneless Spareribs, Beef Teriyaki, and Pork Fried Rice. This combination is a perfect balance of pork, beef, and chicken. The ribs are meaty and have a perfect sweet to salt balance. The beef teriyaki is well done and pairs well with the pork fried rice. The highlight for me is the moist, meaty chicken fingers. The meat is seasoned as well as the batter is too. The pork fried rice brings everything together as I take a scoop of rice with every bite of meat. LoL!!!! Now, if you know what's good for you, make sure to get the Duck Sauce. One thing about the Chinese food in Boston is the Duck Sauce. It's sweet and provides an added flavor profile to everything on the plate. Also, regardless of what you order, the duck sauce will always make it taste even better. LoL!!! If you're in the area you've gotta stop in and get some food from Chinatown Express. The menu has a variety of options. The lunch and dinner specials are awesome. The service is good. And the food is fresh. 20 years later and they still haven't lost the quality goodness that I enjoy!

We ordered 3 combination plates with sesame chicken, crab Rangoon, and pork fried rice, 2 combination plates with general tso chicken, crab Rangoon, and chicken fried rice, one large order of tostones, and one large order of chicken wings for $108. The food was ready after about 15 minutes and was still warm after 30 minutes when we were ready to eat. We all agreed that the food was less greasy than most Chinese food places. Also, the wings were really crispy and tasted fresh. The rice was really good, and surprisingly I did prefer the chicken fried rice. I liked the general tso chicken more than the sesame chicken since it had a bit of spice and more flavor, whereas the sesame chicken was just sweet. I did wish the breading was crispier, but I think it was just because it was take out and about a 20 minute drive. The crab rangoons were good but they did need just a little more filling for my liking. The tostones would have been a lot better right out the oil but it did bring a lot in the order. Overall, I was very satisfied with the portion sizes, flavor, and cost.
