Never going back!! First of all, just because the website says they are open and you are able to order online doesnt mean they are open or will get your order. And of course they will wait until you arrive at the restaurant to tell you they are actually closed. But they will offer to give you free food next time but when you go to order next time it actually wont be free at all, not even discounted. When you arrive there youll likely see someone at the front desk but dont worry, he wont help you because he is too busy playing a game on the computer. So youll stand there for more than 5 minutes until a lady in a booth asks what you need. When you get the food it will taste awful! We got the shrimp lo mein and it had 2 shrimp in it, just 2. The color and taste was like nothing Ive ever seen before. Along with that we got the chicken chow mein which again was a color Ive never seen before and so salty and nasty I couldnt even eat it. The chicken was clearly over processed and in strips that looked like carrots, not even sure it was even chicken. This place is horrible. Im not sure how it got so many decent reviews. My experience was horrible and we will NEVER be back!

We ordered from here and I was told it would be 10-15 minutes. It was at least that by the time I go there. There were two people "working" the lady acted at first like she hasnt received any orders then remembered and then started to COOK my order. I had ordered two combos that should come with fried rice and an egg role they were not with my order when I got I home and the fortune cookies were stale. The store front was scuzzy and the lady was cutting vegetables on the register counter without a cutting board or anything and I could see raw meat sitting out in back. I should have left when my order wasnt ready. Overall the food was fresh and tasted decent but I will not be returning.

Very medicore. Nothing fresh tasting or different from any other "chineese" take out joint. Much better options in Anoka and CoonRapids. I have eaten there 3 times, mainly because it is right next to my house. The Garlic Chicken, General Tsos Chicken, Pork Fried Rice and Lo Mein just didnt have any more flavor or complexity than a $1 frozen entre. For my money, Kings Wok (7th and Main in Anoka) tastes much more favorful. And the resturant in the old Wendys in CoonRapids (CR Blvd next to Big Lots) - I forget the name, Taste of Asia or Asia *something* - and the best oriental food north of Minneapolis. It is so fresh and complex tasting...the spring rolls are to die for.

Golden Monkey has always been my favorite chinese restaurant......until last night. I had ordered 2 orders of Chicken Lo Mein, and what I got was definitely NOT Lo Mein. The noodles were orange, all that was in the orders were orange noodles and chicken, and it stunk! The odor wasnt anything ive ever smelled before in chinese food! Their food is not the cheapest, but its always been so good that I thought it was worth it. Last night I shouldve just thrown my money out the window, because it was a complete waste of money, gas, and time!

Recently moved to the area and this was the closest chinese joint so we figured we would give it a try. Ordered General Tsos chicken and Shrim Lo Mein, both tasted off and oddly seasoned. Shrimp was massively over cooked and was basically rubber. The Chinken fried rice was flavorless and comparable to what can be found at the fast food mall joints. Oh and then there was the 1-1/2" metal shaving that some how ened up embedded in a piece of my chicken. Never, ever again.

This is my favorite Chinese restaurant since moving to ramsey. I love the sesame chicken and cream cheese wantons. Im not usually a big egg roll person, but my wife ordered me one last time, wow it was great. It had a lot of meat in it, instead of just a bunch of mushy stuff like a lot of places. For 3 adults we ordered 2 large entrees, 3 egg rolls and fried rice. All 3 were stuffed and we took home enough for 2 of us to have lunch the next day.

I dont know what that other guy saying about it not being flavorful. This place is great. Personally the fried rice is the best Ive ever has. Everything is made to order during the dinner hour and the only thing frozen is whatever you get that would be deep fried. If you like cream cheese wontons they have some phenomenal ones. Sure you can find better items here and there throughout but this place is worth it! You will be back!

Got a sweet and sour chicken for $10 with like 10 small burnt pieces in it. Pork fried rice and white rice were all gooey and gummy. Got like 3 soy sauce packets squeezed into a small plastic container for my dumplings. The only reason I went there was because my favorite place is now closed on Mondays so I figured Id give it a try. Way over priced and awful food. Will never go back.

The food is good...typical Chinese take out. However, the website has online ordering that doesnt work. They also advertise delivery, but you need a $25 minimum and cash payment only for delivery. Very disappointing.

Pricing was good, and the service was fine, but the food wasnt really that great. The chicken was a bit rubbery, and the noodles and rice were bland. There are better spots in the area for good Chinese food.

Easily the worst chinese food I have ever eaten. The sweet and sour chicken was undercooked and some very odd spices. The chicken fried rice was below average. Will never order again.

General Taos is delicious and the portions are large. We just order an extra rice and split it. Not a bad deal. Becky seems like a lovely woman.

Food was good. This is a restaurant that would be best as a delivery place due to dated and worn appearance but it was clean and tidy.
