    THE AROMA!!!! Smells so good in here! This is such a beautiful place and it was so nice and quiet until one of the customers came in here hollering at the lady behind the desk I swear she has to have the upmost amount of patience because this lady was literally talking to her as if she couldn't understand what she was saying saw the lady was literally sitting there explaining how she could understand her.... Then the customer proceeded to change your order for different times and got mad because there was a lot of confusion on why her order was $30.... That lady definitely has more patience than I do because I would've told that customer to decide her meal highlight or some thing and then come back...smh some people are so difficult for no reason... after she ordered she proceeded to talk on her phone on speakerphone...smh Anyway! Other than her (lady behind the counter) fantastic patients.... The restaurant was clean and every table had salt pepper and soy sauce there was no shortage of condiments that you may have needed or straws or napkins! I also was in love with the decor my favorite one was the giant blue orchid painting that was on the wall. As far as how the food tasted I ordered the vegetable seafood soup and it was very flavorful and definitely had an abundance jampacked of vegetables and some seafood. My daughter ordered the wonton soup and it was delicious she had absolutely no complaints. My son ordered the sesame chicken and fried rice lunch special and his only complaint was the eggroll was a little soggy with oil but that's normal. Definitely a good place to eat, beware the ignorant customers. Great staff, great customer service!

    Look how fresh and golden these wings are !!!!! Fresh

    I wanted to provide an update as it has been 3 years. We still visit Golden China as our go to Chinese restaurant. I still think it is a good go to option, but I still feel like they are not 5 star amazing. On our recent visit, we called in our order early as every time we go, it is busy. We were told a 10-15 minute wait. We left shortly after the call as we are about a 10-12 minute drive from this location. Unfortunately when we got there, it was still a wait, about 10 minutes. Not bad, but still not on with what was quoted. This time we got: 1. Beef and Broccoli - we always get this one as we really enjoy this one 2. Garlic Chicken - this is another one we always now get. The flavor is very good and the veggies (broccoli, mini corn, peppers, zucchini, are great! 3. General Tso's Chicken - a small - like very small, kick to it. But that extra spice adds the extra flavor. Very good! 4. Sesame Chicken - I like this one, but I also wanted to order this with the General Tso's Chicken that we have been ordering previously to see which I liked better. I've always loved Sesame Chicken, but here, the Tso's is so much better, just has that extra kick. The Sesame Chicken is good, but I'm just going to prefer us to get the previous 3 dishes each time going forward. 5. Egg Rolls - standard, but good. Another enjoyable experience. They are still busy during COVID just like they were before. Only difference is that they are only doing take out and not allowing dine in at this time.

    Plain lo-mein , egg rolls sweet &sour chicken and fried rice w 2 drinks. We ate for just under 25$ a ton of food and it was great.

    Golden China was my go to place here and there. Are the previous owners gone? Saw many new faces and the food was different in flavor. Not bad at all just not what I was used to having.

    What an awful experience. The restaurant was slow and not crowded. I was seated at a booth and…read morewaited while others who came in after me were greeted and orders taken. Finally someone brought me chips and salsa. I ordered water and food. Twenty minutes later no water and no food. The server brought items to others but apparently water was too much of a challenge to get. I placed a $5 bill on the table for the four chips I ate. I brought up to management the issue with her solution being that they would pack my food to go. She chose to ignore the no water issue or the service problems. Terrible experience

    I'm surprised that someone decided to open another Central American restaurant in Charlotte…read moreespecially when there is already another well-established one across the street but here is Las Palmas in what used to be John's Family Restaurant on Westinghouse near South Tryon. We were welcomed and seated, having dinner with a friend. The menu is extensive and focused on seafood with lots of crab legs and shrimp and such. I'm not one to usually trust seafood this far from the coastline so I chose the Carne Asada which was very good. A nice portion with plenty of skirt steak cooked medium rare as requested with rice and beans and a little pico and a roasted pepper. Main complaint is that it was not very hot. I think these plastic plates are inexpensive for the restaurant but they make it hard to keep it hot from the kitchen and on the table. Otherwise, the service was good and the drinks were strong. We would (and will) return to Las Palmas. [Review 99 of 2025 - 4069 in North Carolina - 23666 overall]

I asked if we could set at another table and it was like I asked for husband and kids to take home! But she moved us to the other side of the room to a different table. We go sit and let the server know we are still watching on another member of our party. She says okay then leaves and comes back maybe 3 minutes later and asked if we were ready to order, nope still waiting on the other member to our party. This goes on what seemed like forever but wasn't and so we just ordered for the person we were waiting on. I just like if the whole party is not there and we said we were waiting don't keep coming back every 3 mins. This has happen both times. And mind you it is never full/packed. There were 3 other tables that had people at them. Then are you ready for your check sure just bring it. Then she comes back picks them up then she is like do you need anything else. No we are just sitting here talking and hangout. If you want people to order, eat, pay and get the hell out there should be a sign outside. Then a problem I have with them is you order something that is on special then they tell you oh no that's not on special. Now with that all said the food is good but it I can't enjoy my food or my company then what is the point. You go out to enjoy the food and the company you are with! So I hope this helped so what. But as far as me I will not be returning.

    We had such an incredible experience here. By far the best sushi we have ever had. Everything from…read morethe service to the quality of the food was outstanding and exceeded every expectation. Being from California, we did not think our sushi standards could be topped, but this place completely proved us wrong. Some of our favorites were the salmon belly, the red snapper sampler, the yellowtail, and the slam on hand rolls. Everything was incredibly fresh and beautifully prepared. We also loved that they had Echigo beer, which is not easy to find and was a great addition to the meal. One thing that really stood out was how well balanced everything was. Nothing felt overwhelming or heavy, and every dish felt thoughtfully put together. Honestly, you cannot go wrong with any of the rolls here. I could not recommend this place more. An amazing experience from start to finish.

    I want to preface this review by saying that I am a sushi connoisseur. I've eaten sushi all over…read morethe world so I know good sushi. I had high expectations when I walked in with my husband. It had a Michelin 2025 sticker on the front door so I thought it would be amazing. I want to say that the service was excellent. Very attentive servers, very professional, very friendly. The service was 5-stars for sure. Next, the food. We started with the miso soup and ginger salad. Miso soup was bland and the ginger dressing on the salad was super bland. We ordered the crispy spicy tuna and the steamed shumai next. The crispy spicy tuna was weird. The first taste bud stimuli was fishy and the last thing you tasted was McDonald's hashbrowns. Also, the chopsticks were very cheap and when you picked up the piece it basically fell apart. The presentation for the steamed shumai was horrible. It was served in a bowl with the chili garlic sauce in a tiny bowl on the side. The pieces were wayyy too big to pick up with the chopsticks and for the mouth. But if you managed to get the thing in your mouth, it was super hot and basically burned your mouth. Like there was no option to take a bite it was either shove the whole thing in your mouth or not eat it at all. The rolls we ordered were the Mr Crabby, which was the only good thing we ordered. The Naruto, which had too many layers of cucumber wrapped around it and the pieces were mini. The villain, a $25 roll with caviar on top, but the caviar was so sparse, it could barely be seen with the naked eye. Rainbow roll was ok but again, the pieces were tiny. Every roll was flavorless and the price point was stupid. $122 plus tip for a bland lunch was retarded. Super disappointed.
