I have been coming here for many years! The food is always good, the lady who runs it, always remembers me and I’m always greeted happily! It’s not a place to dine in, though you can. Food is always delivered in a timely manner! Thanks Gold Lion for always being consistent with your delicious food

So many things to say…. but ill keep it short. Atmosphere was grimy and smelt of burnt food, the person that helped me barely spoke English and the food….. the egg rolls were just cabbage and carrots (no exaggeration) the crab Rangoons are just Rangoon and the general tso tasted like bad bbq. I really wanted to like this place but I’m honestly leaning towards avoiding a second chance. And yes… that toy dispenser only has empty containers…

This is a good place to get sum Chinese food, it’s made fresh and doesn’t have that weird fish oil taste that a lot of places seem to have. The pricing is on par with everything else and the service is always top notch and friendly. They do their best to accommodate what they can and are always open it seems. Unlike a lot of other places they are open til 10 which is very convenient at times. Large menu with anything you could want and provide napkins if requested. Great little place, I eat here atleast every other week.

Pretty good little Chinese take out joint. I regularly visit these guys. They actually know what it means when you ask for hot spicy in an entree. Decent size portions and quality is above average. I’ve been here several times over several years and have no reason to stop visiting for their great service and food.

Unprovoked, cashier/waitress was rude. Restaurant is unsightly with about two or three tiny tables against the wall across from cashier station in full view of obvious excess storage. Gold Lion Chinese Restaurant worker claimed customers could not wash their hands as no customer facilities were offered. We decided not to patronize such a poorly conceived establishment.

The lady who took my order was eating a hamburger the whole time she was taking my order talking to me with a mouth full of food. I ordered sesame chicken. It was crusting and had almost no sesame seeds, and it tasted funny, i will not be going back

My first experience was great. But this morning I went to grab lunch I paid for my food and now I’m watching them prepare it and I notice when the lady was putting rice in the container she didn’t fill it up and I seen her counting the shrimp (I ordered combo fried rice with extra beef) then she put more rice in the container, so tell me why this lady stuck her hand in my food to take the extra rice out and put it back in the pan
