Great food, good service, and attention to detail. Definitely worth a visit.

Golden Dragon is a small very casual take out type Chinese Restaurant located in Glendale. It is…read moreextra casual here. You order, pay at the counter and grab your beverage from the refrigerator. Your meal is packed in styrofoam so you either take out or eat in at one of the few tables inside. Parking is very easy because they are at the end of a strip mall in a big parking lot. Our food was very fresh. Portions were very large. The chicken in our dishes was masterfully moist and very tender. The food is a very good value if you like it. We ordered the yui shan chicken and the garlic chicken combos (only around $1. more to get soup, crab puff, egg roll and an upgrade from white rice to fried rice.) Based on only trying two dishes my conclusion is that they serve Arizona Style American Chinese Food. It is far less complex, less flavorful, and much less spicy than east coast American take out Chinese Food. It's not bad food in anyway so if you are from Arizona it is very good food. We started eating at the restaurant but I got the idea that I could take the food home and improve it for my taste. The food stayed piping hot and it did taste much better with just a spoonful of chili crisp added more flavors and some needed heat. The people working there seemed very nice and the restaurant looked sparkling clean. 3 stars is a positive review and means A-OK on Yelp. Give this place a try if you are good with Arizona Style Take Out Chinese Food.

I received shrimp and broccoli in duck sauce with only a couple of pieces of chicken. Since we live approximately 10 miles from the restaurant, I called to explain the mistake. I was told that I could receive a credit the next time I came in, but I would need to keep the incorrect food and bring it back with me. I found that response unreasonable. The mistake was made by the restaurant, yet I was being asked to make another trip and take responsibility for returning the incorrect order. I politely asked to speak with the manager and was initially told that the manager did not speak English. About 15 minutes later, the manager called me back, apologized for the situation, and offered me a free meal the next time I come in. I do appreciate that she took the time to call me back and try to make things right. However, the experience has left me questioning whether I can trust that my order will be prepared correctly and that I will receive the food I actually ordered. At this point, a free meal doesn't really resolve that concern. I understand that mistakes happen, but customer service is demonstrated by how those mistakes are handled. I would have expected a simple apology and a reasonable solution without requiring me to make another 20-mile round trip to correct an error I did not make. Unfortunately, based on this experience, I cannot recommend Lucky House and do not plan to return. I hope the restaurant takes this feedback seriously and works to improve both order accuracy and customer service in the future

When I got the food home and took the General out of the plastic bag there was a hole in the bottom of the carton and the food went on the floor. Not only did I have a mess to clean up but, now, three of us had to eat one entree. Since I always get the food without rice I get more meat so it could have been worse. Turns out it was worse because the quality had gone way down in six months. It was bad. When I stopped being angry I called the store to let them know what happened the woman was totally unimpressed. She seemed to think I was talking about the hole caused by the lid and the bottom of the container coming together. I know the difference between a hole in the bottom of a container and the opening of the container. I also asked if they had a new cook because of the bad quality and the woman said it was the same cook as always. Regardless, I will never buy food from there again. It's too bad because there just aren't any good Chinese places on the far west in Sun City. I'd advise anyone thinking about eating at Chen Wok to find another place...and then let me know about it. I'm bummed.

Ooookay, so we sat at a booth, the RUDE waitress comes over to take our orders, "what you wanna order!?" Super aggressive! We order our usual. During that time I realized that it would be easier to eat at a round table so we could use the lazy Susan in the middle to easily reach our food. So we got up and we're going to move when the man who was folding napkins said "no! Wait for your waitress!" Waitress comes back and literally YELLED at us! Saying, "no!!! Sit at the booth!!" I tried explaining that the table would be too small and she continued to yell at me. I was on the verge of tears and didn't understand why she was so upset. Since we did not eat or drink anything, my husband said "let's go!" So we excused ourselves and left. The man folding napkins stood up and ran to the exit and started recording us. Not only was I scared, but my son started crying and my 70 year old mother began wheezing and breathing fast... they literally ran out of the restaurant as we were getting into our car and kept yelling & recording! I used to order $150-200 food EVERY MONTH!!! However we ALWAYS did pick up. Had I known how TERRIBLE THEIR SERVICE IS, I would neeeeeever have contributed to them!!!

Somehow the guy taking the order thought I was ordering the House Special Chicken dish and proceeded to make it. I had texted my wife what I had ordered and she called me to tell me about the mix up on the rice. I know that I said fried rice to him but he repeated everything and in hindsight I think he did say House special chicken but I just thought that's what they call the meat loaded fried rice. Anyway, I told her to ask them if they can split the difference on the chicken but she told me the manager already told her that he would make the rice for no charge and to keep the house special chicken and let them know how it was. Shows the management knows how to treat a customer. Now for the food. As much as I already like the management, I'm definitely not going to rate the food highly if it isn't good. What are the odds that a manager like that is going to allow poorly cooked food out of his kitchen? Every dish was excellent .Out of the 4 entrees we got the House special chicken (which he asked my wife to try and I didn't order) was the best of all. The other 3 and the rice were all excellent as well. They use the right amount of oil and seasonings. Everything fresh and no pools of oil. I probably order Chinese food 2-3 times per year on average. I might up that to once a month or so now that I've found Shanghai.
