Golden Dragon - Placerville

The dressing for the salad was leaking at the bottom of the bag. You really need to improve your packaging. The salad should be placed on top of the soup.

I had a great experience at this restaurant! The portion sizes were generous and the prices were reasonable. The service was outstanding and the atmosphere was cozy. I really enjoyed my meal and will likely return. For those with mobility needs, the restaurant is wheelchair accessible, as it has a flat transition from the parking lot.

Hot and delicious! Everything was just as expected. My kid mentioned that the rice was dry, but I thought it was perfectly fine. I often order from Golden Dragon when I'm at work, and the quality is consistently impressive. The M3 features nice thick, chewy noodles—either Chicken Chow Mein or Chow Fun. The orange chicken contains real orange peels, and the potstickers are filled with tasty meat and vegetables. The hot and sour soup delivered on both flavors—hot and sour—and was genuinely hot. I’m not sure what was going on in the wonton soup, but it was excellent, loaded with meat and veggies. Both soups are fantastic for when you're feeling under the weather.

The sesame chicken was dry and lacking in flavor. The chow mein didn’t really resemble chow fun at all. The wonton soup had absolutely no taste. I've tried to give this place multiple chances, but this was the last one. It was a waste of $68.

I've dined there several times before and had good experiences. However, I ordered takeout for dinner on January 31, 2024, and it was the worst Chinese food I've ever had. I ended up throwing it in the garbage. Unfortunately, I won't be eating there again! I can't help but wonder if there’s new ownership.
