Good food, but not consistent with their menu. You would buy the same dish you order last time it would look and taste different sometimes.

Their food has slowly declined. Ordered food and the lo mein smelled like spoiled meat and the some other fish tasted like soap. Not good!

What's up with keeping the dining room closed? It's really cool in there with a fish tank and ornate wood furnishings and a sushi bar. It's a real cool space. I know COVID shut it down but I think you should consider opening it up again. It's just not satisfying to order sushi from a to go box.

I just left this restaurant & was never so upset & disappointed at the kind of customer service that I was given, the lady behind the glass was shouting orders through this little microphone & I didn't understand what she had said so I kindly asked her was that my order & she rolled her eyes & shouted at me through the window very loudly & honestly all I wanted to know was of that was my order or not. I wasn't rude to her until she kept shouting & then I just walked out of that dam place! I will never eat here again & will tell everyone I know that they don't know how to treat hard working customers

It's rare to find good Chinese food more. We ordered several different dishes to share and each was on spot with flavor and portion size. Definitely will be a return customer .

We've been living in Ocean View for nearly 8 years and somehow had never eaten here. I was craving takeout Chinese food and saw oodles of recommendations for Golden China in an OV Facebook group. They have online ordering, which is very convenient. We ordered more than we could eat (portion sizes are very large), and everything was fantastic! Will happily order from them anytime we get a craving for takeout Chinese food!

I have tried all the other local Chinese restaurants and found this eatery to not only never fail, but they are clean and friendly. Their garlic sauce is incredible. It might not look like much from the outside but they make up for it in taste and portion sizes. Just wish they would deliver.

This place is Amazing! I ordered veggie sushi and hot and sour soup and tofu hibachi and a seaweed salad. It was great getting great Japanese food alongside typical Chinese food (my friend got the teriyaki chicken and loved it). The food was SO good and fresh and the selection was great. Give them a try!

I haven't eaten Golden China in about a year due to the pandemic but I knew it as the best Chinese joint in town! I have to report bad news now and it pains me to do this because I loved this place! The Shumai was awful (stark contrast to what I've had here). It was soggy and not cooked all the way through. The chicken wings were re-fried and like beef jerky. The shrimp hibachi noodles were horrible and soaked in a sauce that didn't even taste like it used to. The pad Thai was NOTHING like it should taste like. Missing sauce and just terrible. What the hell happened? However the

Consistently good sesame chicken, egg drop soup, and egg rolls. Usually enough food to have some leftovers for the next day.
Service is fast and friendly. This is our go-to for Chinese in the area. Highly recommend. Plenty of parking on-street or in the adjacent lot if you’re not up for parallel parking.

The food was cold and felt like it was a rush and someone took a bite and throw it in the bag Also, they need to TEACH their children how to RESPECT and talk to an ADULT. (very Unprofessional and RUDE CHILDREN) and money-hungry for service breaking the CDC guidelines in this pandemic. It was about 9 people inside trying to either order or pick up and the young lady steady answering the phone taking orders when she should be getting the ppl out with their orders. It was no 6 feet distance and the young ladies or their parents had on a mask at this business. (Horrible Customer Service, and Food

I was reading yelp reviews and I noticed a lot of people were talking about the lady that takes your order saying she was rude. Let me tell you it's true. She's very rude, looks like she can care less about the customers and her job. We asked her a question and she just said "ugh I don't know" and rolled her eyes... oh btw they weren't even busy, so that wasn't the problem. We were very nice 1st time customers. Don't think I'll be going back. ~Karen ;)

NEVER AGAIN - We placed our order and they told us it would be ready in 15-20min. We arrived an hour later, just to be sure that our order would be ready when we arrived (this was based upon our previous experiences with this restaurant). When we arrived, there was a line (of angry people) outside who were in line for their for pickup orders, so we called while outside to be sure that our order was ready. We were given the all clear and they told us that our order ready for us to come in and pick up. My husband went in to the establishment, and was then told that not only was our order NOT READY

I haven't had their food yet. But the customer service and speed of operation sucks. I put an online order in at 6:15pm and it is now 6:51 and I am still being told a couple of minutes. I understand they are busy but I am seeing people who put in orders after me leave before me. And not to mention the place is hot in the waiting area. I hope the food is at least good whenever I get my food

Food is some of the best Chinese in Norfolk. However the young lady that answers the phone and runs the register is about as rude, an unprofessional as it comes hence the 2 stars. Trying being a little more polite when speaking with customers, try not to yell their entire phone number out for all to hear. Why not just ask their first name when ordering or simply conform what they have ordered.
Some people may not want their information given out so freely. Try saying Thank you or your welcome.

The food is great, customer service not so much

We've lived in the area for 6 yrs. And Golden China is absolutely delicious. We've tried other Chinese take outs, and they do not stand up to the quality and taste of Golden China. Absolutely AMAZING!!!

I have given myself a week or two to cool off after this incident but I have never been more frustrated by a restaurant in my life.

I ordered my food through the Post-mates app after seeing an advertisement for free delivery from Golden China's refrigerator. Unfortunately, when I received my order it was nothing that I ordered and was spilt all over the bottom of the bag they packed it in. I brought the order/food back to the restaurant and was forced to take the issue up with a young pre-teen girl while two adult women neglected to talk to me and acted like they didn't speak English

This place was super busy on a lunch weekday. Lots of military sitting down eating and taking out. I figured it had to be good. It was pretty good. The flavor was spot on. It was super hot and fresh. Has all your typical chinese dishes.

Deliscious and quiet atmosphere in the daytime. Fancy american style rolls are great. I have yet to try the plain more traditional rolls.
We are afflicted by allergies in our family so im not sure how well they do with special requests but as long as you read the descriptions and let them know you should be fine.
Their pickled ginger is the plain blond type that does not have artificial sweeteners and its so refreshing to have a good palate cleanser that does not have an aspartame aftertaste.
10/10 would reccomend.

This is my go-to for chinese and sushi! Yes, sushi at a Chinese restaurant - I was surprised how delicious it was. My staple rolls are spicy tuna & salmon. When I'm feeling fancy, I'll go for any of the fancier rolls - I've had pretty much all and it's hard to choose a favorite. Their Hibachi menu is great! I usually get the chicken and shrimp with noodles. Sometimes I'll order fried chicken wings which never disappoint. The Chinese food is yummy and fresh as well. From general tso's chicken to beef & broccoli, shrimp in lobster sauce and orange chicken...the

We were waiting in 64 traffic and decided to get lunch instead. It wasn't far from 64 and in a cute area. The restaurant was set up smart. They had one side that looked like takeout and through a door they had a nicely set up sitting area for us. Booths, nice tables and it was dark and cool in a bright hot day.

The food? Good prices and good portions. My Generals Tos Chicken was beyond belief! It was nice and crispy fired chicken covered in sauce, totally yummy! I am used to mushy chicken and gooey sauce. This was nothing like that

But that's where the goodness ends. My mother ordered

This is our go to spot for Chinese food. My husband order sushi and the flavor was wonderful. You can normally taste when food was made fresh and when it is sitting on the counter. It was so good, i didnt get a chance to take a picture. You can taste the difference from other chinese food restaurants and their food.

It's not a Michelin star restaurant, it just is what it is. A nice local Chinese restaurant. I love a local family owned place, and this is it. The restaurant is clean and the service is friendly. We order take out from here all the time (what's not to love about ordering online?!), but last night we decided to dine in since we hadn't done that in years. The vibe is just relaxing.

Hubby had the beef and broccoli dinner combo (steamed rice) and egg drop soup while I had the sweet and sour chicken combo with wonton soup. We were not disappointed! Everything is made to order, which
