Golden China - New Bern

Food is good but it seems you will never be able to dine in any longer. Don't know why. COVID is not the problem.

Never order......I placed an order 150.3 items were unavailable.The Uber eats driver was great.....BUT PLEASE DO NOT ORDER from here.....

Very strongly disagree with their “Covid policy”. Not allowing you to come in, making you place your order and pay on the phone. Food is decent, although the “chicken” pieces in items like sesame or general tso is usually chewy.

It is okay. Not terrible but not exactly something to get excited about. If it wasn't a convenient location would not order because customer service is lacking.

We've had take-out from here about a dozen times or so over the past year. My basis for comparison are Chinese Restaurants we frequented for thirty years in the NJ/NY area.A favorite dish of mine is sesame chicken. I found the sesame chicken here to be so-so. It appears to be mostly dark meat, and I often find parts that should have been trimmed away included. The coating is not crispy or caramelized kind soggy, really.The sweet and sour chicken is hit-and-miss. Too often, I have found the pieces to be hard and greasy. Sometimes they are soft and moist. Could it be they are cooking these on spec and they are allowed to sit around too long? All the beef dishes I have had seem to be using low grade beef based on its toughness. The Orange Beef did not taste very orangey despite the evidence of rind/peels. The Won Ton soup is OK, but just OK.My wife often orders seafood dishes, and she has had no complaints.Finally, if you do order take out, check your order before you leave. We have received missing and incorrect orders. Last time the pork friend rice was just rice. No pork, or any other ingredients. That's not even on the menu...We still occasionally go there due to its convenient location for us, but I really can't recommend their beef or chicken dishes, or the wonton soups.
