Golden China Chinese Restaurant

JP Aquino 4 months ago

I'm writing this review on the floor on a depressing Sunday—one of those Sundays that makes you whisper to yourself, “I’m never drinking again,” even though deep down you know that’s a lie. I got this food expecting flavor, pleasure, culture—Chinese culture, to be more accurate. Instead, I ate it purely out of inertia, the same way astronauts probably eat space food: not because they want to, but because it’s technically there. By the end of the meal, my hope in life had quietly packed its bags and left the building. Three stars because the woman working there was nice as hell. Truly incredible service. Sadly, I can’t say the same for the chicken lo mein, which tasted like it had already given up on life long before I did. I actually feel bad for her because the attention and kindness were amazing. The egg rolls are good, and the price is appealing. I will never come back. But the next time I pass that place, I’m not even going to hate it. I’m just going to ignore it completely and pretend like it never happened

One of the best beef broccoli ever. I would add this to my go to Chinese restaurants in D.C! I got a really good deal for $11 on their lunch special that comes with fried rice, but I asked to replace it with white rice and they allowed that. It also came with an egg roll which I also replaced with a shrimp egg roll. They were pretty flexible about how I was able to switch out stuff. The beef broccoli is what you expect it to be. The broccoli was fresh and everything was hot. I also parked in front of the store that was thankfully newly added.

I came into DC about 9 and finally made it to my hotel about 10pm, I was famished and didn’t want to venture out. The restaurant was about to close, they still took my order and brought it to me within 15 minutes. I met him in the hotel lobby, he was kind and I was grateful for their quick delivery. The food was good and honestly even better the next day! I ordered the large shrimp fried rice and ate on it for 3 meals.

Today I have another installment of D.C.’s worst rated food. Last week this place was rated 2.0 stars on Google. Magically it’s now rated 3.5 stars. Yelp puts them at 2.0 too. KNOW what to order from these carryout’s!! Trust!! . Where I am: Golden China . Location Reviewed: 1703 6th St., N.W. Washington D.C. . Menu Includes: Steak n Cheese, Fried Rice, Fries, Wings, General Tso’s Chicken, Beef n Broccoli, Egg Rolls, Lo Mein, Soups, Burgers, & MORE!! . Items Reviewed: Their Shrimp Egg Roll (With cabbage, sprouts, shrimp, & Duck sauce $3.30). DECENT. A standard egg roll from a Carryout. Greasy, but…edible while hot. Their Shrimp Fried Rice (with sprouts, soy sauce, & onions $9.10). DECENT. I had to add soy sauce to flavor this, but again…it’s edible. At least the shrimp were deveined. Their Half n Half (Half lemonade, & ice tea $3). DECENT. Sugary, but cold…not a drink for diabetics!! Their 4 Wings & French Fries (with salt, pepper, ketchup, Mumbo sauce, & hot sauce*One word in DC* on the fries, & just Mumbo sauce on the wings $10.15). DELICIOUS! The wings weren’t HUGE (which is indicative of them being genetically modified), and just doused in the mumbo sauce…tasty!! But I may be bias in this, because this meal is nostalgic for me. The Fries…DELICIOUS! This is how I’ve gotten my fries from carryout’s sine I was 12!! Sweet, spicy…eat these IMMEDIATELY, they’ll get soggy quick!! . Customer Service: I was greeted, and they even said “Thank You” when I left!! But Customer Service doesn’t stop there for me. Cleanliness is a huge part of it. This place wasn’t invited, or clean. . Online Navigation: They are online. They deliver too. . Parking: Rough . Recommendations: If you go…get what I got verbatim. A 2.0 Star rating sounds about right!! .

The food in this place is mediocre, bordering on just plain bad. Ordered chicken chow mein to go and when I got home I saw some weird slop. Strictly speaking it was food. I could see chicken, vegetables, etc., but it was in some kind of clear broth with the consistency and color of snot. Maybe mine was just one in a hundred and the food is usually great. I’ll never know because I won’t return.
