GOLDEN PALACE CHINESE RESTAURANT REVIEWS

Here’s a refined version of your description: Tucked away as a true hidden gem, this cozy spot serves family-style Chinese food at unbeatable prices. The warm and inviting atmosphere, paired with exceptional customer service, makes you feel right at home from the moment you walk in. We opted for the family meals, which allow you to customize your order based on group size, with flexible options for each dish. You can even adjust the spice level or swap ingredients, like we did by changing one chow mein to a veggie version instead of beef. Every detail was carefully attended to, from the food’s delivery to the impeccable service, and most importantly, the taste. The dishes were savory, fresh, and comforting—approved 100% by my mom, who already can't wait to return! And let me tell you, the wonton soup was simply perfect, bursting with flavor in every bite. The ambiance suits both large groups and solo diners, and you get to pick your seating when you walk in. Whether you're sharing a feast with family or ordering a single plate for yourself, this spot will leave you wanting more.

This must be some kind of hidden gem. This is not your every day "dollar Chinese take out. In fact, not even close. The Golden palace serves some of the finest Chinese food in the entire area. Be prepared to have a large appetite, as every thing is served family style, huge portions. So it's best that each person in your party order one dish. Don't be fooled by the lack of people dining in. The majority of their business appears to be take out or delivery, as a lot people were coming and going as well as their delivery person. You will not be disappointed.

Good tasted great. Fans are on and make food cold right away, thats their only downfall. We had 6 dishes, 5 adults and 2 little ones. Good prices . Bill came out to about $120. Server was very attentive, he was kind and funny. I would totally recommend this restaurant.

PANDA EXPRESS DOWNEY REVIEWS

We love Panda Express. The food is always fresh, hot and tasty! They offer many different dishes and they give samples... try before you buy! The staff has amazing customer service and the store is always clean and appealing.

I placed an online order and it was ready in 5 minutes, the store was packed with people around 5:20 p.m. and the team were very efficient. I waited at the pickup area and the cashier was busy, when he finish his current customer he asked me if I'm here for the online order. I show him the text that my food is ready and he located my foot and handed me to my food right away. I was so hungry I sit in the car finish my food while watching people waited in store lineup forever. The portion was great they are not stingy food were fresh and hot.

I gotta give it to them! The ladies that worked tonight did an absolutely great job with getting the long line down efficiently. The line was literally wrapped around to the exit door but the wait was not long at all. The food was fresh and good! They give a good portion of food! It is most definitely worth the price!.

KAOWOK CHINESE KITCHEN REVIEWS

This location was recommended to me by my coworkers and it did not disappoint. Food is delicious, priced reasonably, and you'll definitely have leftovers. Place is clean, has plenty of seating inside and outside. Staff is courteous and you are tended to rather quickly. The chow mein noodles are a thicker than I've had at other locations but very flavorful. The orange chicken is soft and tasty and the white rice so good. My family also loved their plates of Fire Grilled chicken, Beef and Broccoli with chow mein and fried rice. Definitely worth a try.

I love the food and i dont make reviews often but looking at all of these reviews about it being unhealthy and stuff like that kinda kills the score but i recommend this place.

Delicious clean fresh food at any hour of the day! It’s authentic and tastes as perfect as Chinese food should the employees make you feel welcome and are super nice:).
