I wanted Chinese as always and looked for a great rating with Yelp and it was just ok. Had better at my own local Chinese restaurant. I ordered the triple delight with the broccoli extra spicy. It was ok not great.

Ehh we stopped in for lunch with friends. Service was super slow and the food just wasn't great. It won't be in our rotation.

Kicking off with some free crispy wonton with duck sauce!

It's always a pleasure to come to this hidden gem. It's off the beaten path in a private strip mall. One of those places that are found by word of mouth. The atmosphere is very laid back and relaxed. They play traditional Chinese music in the background which makes it feel like you are overseas. The fish tank and artwork also transports you back to their homeland. Their food is traditional Schezhuan style. All the dishes are amazing and the best part is how affordable they are. The Mon-Sat lunch menu is the best. Plates are just enough to satisfy you and it comes with a cup of your choice of Hot & Sour, Egg Drop or Wonton soup. All 3 are great. My wife got the garlic shrimp with white rice. Shrimp is perfectly cooked, not rubbery and the green peppers, celery & carrots are also soft with a little crunch. I got the Mongolian beef. Tender beef cooked with scallions and onions accompanied by choice of white or fried rice. Make sure to ask for Chili Oil on the side to get that extra kick. It may look spicy but it is not so bring it on. The wait staff is friendly and efficient. Love this place and one of the few in town that has great food with reasonable prices. They don't hit you with extra unnecessary prices!

Szechuan Beef (also Chef's Special) with rice & soup for $7,50 -  mild & sweet, with the ubiquitous brown sauce.

I visited this place several times recently to see what their food was like now, had been there several times a few years back. The menu here is rather broad - most of the usual Chinese American items (General Tso Chicken, Mongolian Beef, etc.), a few Hunan and Szechuan dishes, several duck choices, a variety of noodle dishes, a number of Indo-Chinese items (Gobi Manchurian, Hakka Noodles, Darjeeling Noodles etc., for example), and several Thai dishes. I tried the Twice Cooked Pork, and 3 Indo-Chinese dishes - Hakka Noodles, Darjeeling Noodles, and Gobi Manchurian. The pork dish was rather nice with a nice heat level, and still crispy chopped vegetables. The pork was tender and flavorful, though it was not especially plentiful. The lunch special comes with soup and rice. The Gobi Manchurian is a favorite dish of mine and I've eaten it at Curry And Noodle in Winston, Noor in Greensboro, and Salt and Pepper in High Point - all great versions. This, unfortunately, was not anywhere near that level, in fact it was God awful. The cauliflower was covered in a gooey, tasteless batter, and smothered in a thick "gravy"! Darjeeling Noodles originated in the city of Darjeeling in the Indian state of West Bengal, a city renowned for its uniquely favored & expensive tea! This is a rather fiery dish flavored primarily by Dalle Chiles, also called wild cherry chilies, and a variety is available in the USA. This dish also contains Sichuan peppercorns, white peppercorns, garlic, soy sauce, and a touch of tomato - there are a lot of variations with some additional items. This was a solid dish and there was plenty of it, but it was a mild version, lacking the usual red color of the sauce. I don't know what Chiles were used, but apparently there was not a lot of them. I wouldn't go with this dish again. This spot is a decent option for a selection of Asian and Indo-Chinese fare.

Crispy Scallion Chicken Specialty
Cam O.

Great Service and Great Food! Only reason I gave the establishment a 4 and not a 5 is because the scallion chicken was supposed to be spicy but wasn't really spicy at all. Best egg drop soup I've had. Great place!

Egg roll.
JEH W.

Ordered delivery and it has to be the worst Chinese food I've ever tasted. Not sure what was inside the egg rolls, but it looked and tasted like sawdust. It was certainly not minced vegetables.

Fresh food, unlike the other ones. We go there every other week. General Tsos Chicken is fresh and crunchy and the wait staff are superb.

I've been on a bit of a cauliflower journey lately and have tried several versions over the last…read moremonth and a half, and this one is definitely the top of the list. I ordered the honey cauliflower, garlic naan, veggie samosa, chicken lollipops, crispy okra, and paneer saag. A friend recommended this place, and somehow I managed to eat all of this by myself because it was just so good! The honey cauliflower was the standout for me. The pieces were big, perfectly crispy, and had a great balance of flavor without feeling overly breaded. The veggie samosa was also really well done, with a good filling-to-breading ratio. The chicken lollipops were exactly what I was hoping for, and the crispy okra was another highlight because it wasn't weighed down by too much breading. The only thing I didn't personally love was the paneer saag, but that was more on me because I didn't really read the description before ordering and it just wasn't what I was expecting. The sauce itself was really good, it just wasn't the flavor profile I had in mind. Overall, I think Taaza is hands down some of the best Indian food in the greater Winston-Salem area. Great flavors, great portions, and I'll definitely be ordering again.

Lovely interior, attentive but not overbearing service, and a diverse bit not overwhelming menu…read more The peshwari kofta special and custard with fruit dessert were particularly good. Looking forward to coming back.

We started with a complimentary serving of chips, accompanied by two sauce options: a sweet and a savory. Next, we ordered the crazy naan, which was incredibly tasty and had a hint of spice. For my main course, I opted for the GSR butter chicken, which was absolutely delicious. It was served with rice, and the sauce was simply incredible. The chicken was cooked to perfection, and every bite was a delight. My husband enjoyed the lamb rogan josh, which was equally delicious and tender. Both dishes were cooked to perfection and left us thoroughly satisfied. The staff at Saffron Cafe was incredibly friendly and attentive. The restaurant itself was clean and well-maintained, creating a pleasant dining experience. Overall, we had a wonderful time at Saffron Cafe. The food was delicious, the service was friendly, and the atmosphere was welcoming. We highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great Indian dining experience.

It's just an exquisite meal, 11/10 across the board, the food is amazing. It's all beautifully presented, service is fast and friendly.

It's so luxurious and having the two of these together is really nice. This was a great amount of food for two people to share.

I love finding places that not only serve great food but also introduce you to new flavors, ingredients, and cultures. My wife and I really enjoyed our experience and will definitely be back soon. If you're looking for authentic Indian food at a great price, I highly recommend checking this place out!

This was my first experience at Golden India Restaurant and Grocery. I got a few things during my…read morevisit, I got some Ghee (clarified butter) and Frozen Garlic Naan. The meal I selected was Butter Chicken. I only have a few experiences with Indian food, and I knew this was a safe bet, and since it is a very popular Indian dish, I figured this would be a good litmus test for the restaurant. I was very pleased with their selection of groceries; they had many WHOLE-grain spices, which is pretty rare, unless you are going to Whole Foods or some ritzy establishment like that. They had so many herbs and ingredients, it was really lovely to see a small business provide a resource for an underserved community in Winston-Salem. I plan to try the Garlic Naan later, I was to hungry to warm it up with my Butter Chicken. Now, onto the food. Unfortunately, I thought it was a little bland. And a bit pricy for what I got. I just got butter chicken and jasmine rice, and it was $16. I think for that price, the portion size might be a little bigger. The dish had spice, it was not devoid of spices, but it was just fairly bland, compared to my few experiences with Indian food before. With that being said, I will try it again. Perhaps it was an off day, or maybe that's not their signature dish. If I had to pinpoint a problem, maybe there was too much cream in it? I think that is the reason for the "bland" and most certainly not a lack of effort or seasonings. I tasted a nice umami flavor, but it was very faint in the sauce. I will give them another shot, and I will report back, everyone has a bad day occasionally.
