Golden City Restaurant

First time here. Let me tell you something…read more.. I grew up in NY and as everyone knows it's almost impossible to find food that's on the same par. That is... until I tried LC. Holy hell. This place is quite amazing and I have not found anything close to NY Chinese food. If you put this food in front of me blind folded and a NY version I wouldn't be able to tell the difference. That's how good this is! Kudos to you guys! Amazing food

Just walked in and ordered carry out. When getting home realized they forgot the white rice for…read morethe beef and broccoli. I specifically asked for the white rice. They also forgot the gravy for the almond chicken. I'm glad that I was charged the $.25 for the mustard though. Thanks for rushing that order out in 10 min though. Even though a 1/3 was missing. If I did not live 20 min away I would be going back for the missing goods. I will not be ordering from this place again. Panda Express doesn't forget the rice.

Not Just Noodle

My meal from Not Just Noodle was simply outstanding…read more The Seafood with Stir Fried Noodles dish was nearly perfect. The noodles were thick and toothy with a savory and especially tasty sauce. The combination of shrimp and scallops was buttery. The vegetables had a natural earthiness. I also loved the green onion pie (a.k.a., scallion pancake). The dough had the ideal weightiness to complement the gentle green onion flavor. I will definitely return.

How this place has a 4.3 rating just escapes me. Let's start out with the super sticky tables and…read morecondiment containers on the tables. Super disgusting! And whoever mops the floors must have an irrational childhood fear of cleaning corners. Although the floors themselves are clean, each corner has a disgusting black buildup of filth. Likewise, the sinks in the bathroom. They have not been cleaned well in a very long time. Food: the beef roll pie is delicious. The marinated beef is OK but should be served cold, not room temperature. The steamed dumplings were OK too. However, the noodle dishes were oily, bland, flavorless, and just seasoned with a sweet brown sauce. Further, there is almost no meat to be found in the noodle dishes. What I had looked to be scraps. I paid three dollars extra to have the wide hand cut noodle. It was basically served raw to me. Service: this place has no concept of service. Food comes out haphazardly. First I got my entrée, then my daughter got her entree, then we got two appetizers. Sometime later, my son got his entrée, and the steamed dumplings came. Never once was an empty dish taken away, and never once was a water glass refilled. Service here is absolutely awful. Other than the beef roll pie, there isn't a single redeeming quality about this place. The food is awful, the service is terrible, all surfaces are sticky and dirty. Avoid this place at all cost.

There was absolutely ZERO flavor. None. One of my kiddos licked the gravy from the outside of their box and made a terrible face before I even got a taste - and I knew right then it was gross. I tried adding sauce after sauce. Even salt. Nothing. Everyone else said their food was "just okay". I gave two stars for the spring roll I did eat and because my kids said theirs was decent enough to eat. Mine went unfinished and I definitely would not recommend nor eat there again.

I was pretty disappointed with this place. I ordered take out and I got the lemon chicken combo. The chicken was VERY dry and hard to eat. The skin slid right off it, making me not even want to eat the chicken. The fried rice was pretty mediocre. My fiancé got general tsaos chicken and said it was good, but not as spicy as it should have been. The total ended up being $21 for 2 meals and a small side of lo mein. read more

Summer Palace has standard American style Chinese food in large portions. The Singapore noodles were good, although I would have liked more egg, spiciness, and meat and seafood (such as shrimp and chicken) in the meal rather than being an add-on option. I prefer the chicken egg foo young dinner, which comes with an egg roll and rice. For an additional $2.50, I chose to have fried rice. There is a large amount of rice and egg foo young topped with gravy. It's decent for American Chinese, filling, and is enough to feed several people. Not a bad takeout place considering there aren't many diverse food options in Grosse Pointe.

Unfortunately my takeout experience with Summer Palace left my taste buds disappointed and…read moreconfused. I suppose I took a gamble ordering a Thai dish when this seems like more of a Chinese restaurant, but the Tofu Pad Thai was not great. The tofu was very watery and gross, and the noodles were too spicy. We also tried some chicken dishes which were mediocre. Finally, the egg rolls lacked flavor and did not have the best texture. I think we'll need to continue exploring Asian options in this area next time we are in town.
