My experience with ordering take out from here was awful. Luckily I have a boyfriend thatll eat anything, otherwise it would have been money straight into the trash can. Im a simple gal. I like ordering general tsos chicken with white rice. So, thats what I did. We went to pick it up ten minutes later and I was actually excited for dinner when we got home. We get home and start unloading the bag. My S.O. got some sort of chicken veggie dish with fried rice. I got general tsos with white rice. Well....first problem was, there was no white rice in the bag. I was immediately crushed because that is the best part for me. I didnt even want to eat the chicken after that because they go together. My boyfriend offered my some fried rice and Im really not a fan but I accepted some anyway so that I could eat some of the chicken. When I started to eat the chicken I was severely disappointed. While yes, general tso chicken is wet on the outside, the inside was so dry I could barely even chew it. It tasted like it had been made many hours before and just kept warm. I ate about 4 pieces and then gave up. My boyfriend let me try a piece of his chicken and it was the same story. Dry as hell and disgusting. Total waste of money and ruined my evening. Will never, ever order from here again.

I bought 4 meals, Chicken wings and french fries, Fried Crab stick with pork fried rice, House Lo mein, and Chicken w/mixed vegetables. The chicken must have been old or left overs from another night, they were hard, crunchy, and dark skinned, like as if the grease was old that they cooked it in for a long time. The crab meat is fake, its imitation crab meat that anyone can get at the supermarket. The crab meat was covered with something breaded. It was disgusting, the fake crab meat, pork rice was hard, and the chicken wings were as well. I got sick from this old food. Vomiting and the runs. I didnt purchase old food. I expected to get good quality food. Buyer beware. Your life is in the hands of the vendor. We pay good money to get crap. I dont think so. You need to step up your performance with quality versus quantity. I paid for real Alaskan crab meat and thats what I expected to get and I didnt. Shame on you all the owner/boss, and cooks.Customers need to know what their buying. I know the difference and this is not quality food. Fake crab meat. The crab meat is suppose to fall in layers not stay together even when you bit into it.

Nothing to do with the food but the staff is terrible, Im assuming its family owned I was walking past the establishment and an old african american homeless man, presumably mentally ill asked me if I could go into the restaurant and get him a water I assumed a cup of water would be free so I asked him why he couldnt go in and ask he then told me they were mean to him and would make him pay for a water mind you its 100 degrees out and I feel like Im going to die just walking across to the restaurant in this weather I went into the restaurant alone and asked for a large cup of water with extra ice and they didnt ask me for any money what so ever. Who lets a man who obviously has no home and isnt really all there just almost die of heat exhaustion and dehydration, but a well dressed little white girl comes in and asked for the same thing and isnt asked to pay when she obviously has the money to do so. The fact that they thought this was okay infuriated me. This establishment will never get another dollar out of me.

We have tried many Chinese restaurants in the HR area and Golden China is our FAVORITE. The service is always friendly and accomodating and the food is the best we have had outside of NYC. Eat in or take away. The menu is extensive but not expensive, and the sushi is well prerared and presented. The dining room is hidden from the street. When you go in, it looks to be like most other chinese take aways, but turn to your right and you will be pleasantly suprised by a beautiful salt water aquarium, cozy dining room and sushi bar.

This place is awesome! You know how Hipsters love Asian food? Well, this place has got Chinese AND Japanese in the same place! You just cant beat that. (well..maybe add Pad Thai to the menu! Oh..and Lumpia...) Great Sake, and delicious tea. I recommend the Sweet-Potato sushi, and the Tofu Teriyaki. Just what Ocean View needed, and I can walk here!

Ordered from here twice. The food was alright but fairly priced and delivered quickly. We didnt like the dumplings, the sushi was mostly rice, the fried rice didnt have much flavor, and the lo mein was pretty dry. Probably wont order from here again unless I dont have a better choice and my preferred Chinese restaurant is closed.

I used their online ordering system to place my take-out order. I ordered from the Japanese menu at this Chinese restaurant and I was very pleased. I made many special requests and even asked for shrimp sauce that even only a few Japanese take-out restaurants have and it was in with my order! I will order again!

They have THE best General Tsos Bean Curd. Even if youre not a vegetarian, (Im not), its very well prepared and has a great texture that a lot of tofu dishes lack. Each dish has at least two large meals worth of servings, so you get two for the price of one. I will miss this restaurant the most, in our move.

The food here is great, and its always hot when we get home. The prices are reasonable and the food is absolutely excellent. The only thing that I believe keeps Golden China from a five star review is the fact that you usually have to go pick up the food yourself, and its not always ready right away.

Best friend rice and best bourbon chicken in Norfolk, with a classy dining area to boot. Ive never had anything I didnt like here and Ive never been unhappy with the price. $8 with tax for a guaranteed good dinner combo cant be beat. They dont deliver but its entirely worth the trip.

I was reluctant to try any Chinese food here being from out of town, but the craving got the best of me. I was so surprised by the quality of the food here and want to give this business the review it deserves! If youre looking for great taste and price, look no further!

Great sushi place. Friendly staff and good prices. Even the beer priced reasonably. Does take out, but the atmosphere in the venue is really nice, with fish and aquariums, a sushi chef station, and a nice red and mahogany theme. Definitely give it a try!

Customer Service is the best in town. Food is always amazing, hot, and delicious when it comes out. They work hard here and it shows. This is our favorite place in Norfolk. Even though we moved farther away, we still come here.

Their food is the best Ive had in Norfolk, and with my in laws being Chinese and having their own restaurant, I know Asian cuisine pretty well. This is delicious food and their staff as very nice. Will be a repeat customer
