    Shrimp Mei Fun and crab ragoons
    Lauren S.

    I ordered takeout so I can't comment on the restaurant or cleanliness. My food was ready 15 minutes after I ordered and the prices were reasonable. Iget the same order from every Chinese food place. - Shrimp Mei Fun, Crab ragoons and an egg roll. Shrimp Mei fun - the noodles were well cooked but there was not alot of shrimp or flavor at all. It was like it was cooked without any soy sauce. Once I added my own, it helped tremendously. Crab ragoons - these were made using my favorite fold for crab ragoons. Making them little pockets with 4 points. These were unlike any I've ever had though, they use a very thin wrapping which gives it an amazing crunch and let's the cream cheese be the focus of the bite. The problem is, again, there was no flavor. It was like they took plain cream cheese and put it in the wrapping. No onion powder, crab, scallions, nothing. It even looks like plain cream cheese. Shame that the filling isn't better because these could have been awesome with that wrapping! And the sauce that came with it wasn't traditional sweet and sour sauce, it had a little spice to it, very weird. Egg roll was solid. There again wasn't much flavor but more so than the rest of the meal. Overall, it's not going to be my new favorite Chinese spot or anything. Its okay.

    They really go above and beyond. Just look at how they dolled up my delivery order! Every time I order them to be delivered the service says it will be about 45 minutes and it always comes in 15-20! They are THE BEST! And so yummy. Try their pepper steak and onions. Whoowee it's de

    I prefer the Queen Express and the Princess Express. Whereas the Prince Express is when I only have 10 mins to listen to the whole Purple Rain album so I stick to When Doves Cry and Darling Nikki (obvi). I've become really picky about Chinese restaurants ever since I've been eating in Chinatown NYC, Flushing, Boston, and at Peking Quick One, the home style menu at Gin Gin, Crystal, China King (Maple) and so on. But even if I hadn't, this wouldn't be my fave Chinese place. It was right next to my work for awhile so I had it a couple times more than I wished to. The Shrimp Curry, which is usually my go to dish, wasn't good. The Crab Rangoon is nice. The General Tso is ok (but after the one at Peking Quick One... hard to love it anywhere else), but the last time I ate here (Crab Rangoon and Shrimp Curry) I got so sick afterwards that I haven't returned since then. (Blurgh) Still, with a few good items on the menu and nothing absolutely awful, I won't give this little family owned place less than 3. Now I have to go because I just saw a girl doing something with a magazine in a hotel lobby.

    Working our way through the menu at King Express. This dish was a bit on the bland side. The fresh veggies & thinly sliced tender chicken was a nice light healthy meal.

    Takeout pickup of the best Chinese food tofu in the 716! :-D

    Since discovering King Express last Christmas Eve, it has become our favorite Chinese takeout spot. We order on the DoorDash app for pickup, which is so easy and convenient. King Express is in a strip mall plaza with ample parking. It is mostly for takeout, but they do have a couple booths to eat in. Our food is usually ready to pickup in a half hour or less. When we open it up at home, it is still pretty hot. And it is all fresh and DELICIOUS! I am vegetarian and my daughter is vegan, and we LOVE the tofu garlic sauce dishes at King Express, definitely our favorite takeout tofu. It is not a crispy tofu. It is big hunks of soft and spongy tofu that is swimming with vegetables in delicious sauce. The garlic sauce here is divine! It is creamier than other garlic sauces I've had, not a watery sauce. This is a thick and rich sauce that generously coats the ample serving sizes they give you here. One order of their tofu is more than enough for one person, really plenty for two people. It is a FULL container of tofu and veggies with rice packed in a different container on the side. This is not like some places that give you a single container that contains both the rice and the entrée. No, this is A LOT of food for a great price! The tofu dishes are still just $10.50 each, with most places creeping near or upwards of $15 a dish nowadays. And it is so good that I usually order a few different kinds of tofu dishes to have leftovers. It keeps very well in the fridge for a few days, the flavors soak up more! We love the tofu and broccoli in garlic sauce, and the tofu and mushrooms in garlic sauce. To mix it up a bit, the bean curd and vegetables in black bean sauce is also a very tasty sauce too. For the omni eaters in our family, my husband hasn't had a dish he doesn't like at King Express either. He's tried various chicken, pork and beef dishes, and all are flavorful and abundant, as well. Our picky-eater-son who is also omni always goes with the sweet and sour chicken, as he likes to call Chinese chicken nuggets, and has no complaints either. I'm so glad we stumbled on King Express late on Christmas Even last year--it is our go-to Chinese food now, and the best Chinese takeout tofu in the 716! :-D

    Ok let's see if it's worth the $35

    Over priced. Wings and rice is $13.75. I will advise to check the prices before ordering it. Other stores have the same food for $8.

    Finally had the chance to dine in. Walked in at 1:45pm on a Monday and there was soft music playing…read morein the dining room. I was seated and immediately served complimentary tea, and fried wontons with sweet and sour sauce. I ordered the Kung Pao lunch special which comes with a choice of egg roll or soup, and white or vegetable friend rice. I chose the wonton soup and fried rice, and I ordered an egg roll as well. The egg roll came out quickly, and the lunch special was served right when I finished that. The food was good and the dish was spicy (Kung Pao is supposed to be spicy but it never is-- not for me) and the service was polite. When the check came it was accompanied by a plate with two slices of orange and a fortune cookie. The only thing I didn't like about the visit was that there was an advertisement for a big commercial law firm on the back of the fortune slip and the "lucky number" was the phone number. I thought that was tacky. I walked out at 1:15pm. Great, quick lunch.

    Nice people, good food, pleasant atmosphere: because I can never decide which is more important,…read morethey are equally important factors when rating a restaurant. Golden Hill has all three. And a lunch menu. Wow! I just gave my receipt another look and the people are nicer than I thought. I thought they were pleasant, friendly, happy we were there, concerned that we would enjoy our visit. The lunch menu offerings were each $10.95 and included eggroll OR soup, and white or vegetable fried rice. Daughter ordered the Eggplant in Garlic Sauce with eggroll and white rice, plus an appetizer order of steamed dumplings. I ordered Eggplant with Pork in Garlic sauce with eggroll and white rice, plus a small bowl of Hot and Sour Soup. The soup on the appetizer menu was $3.95. My receipt shows the server put the soup as my lunch choice and charged $2.95 for the eggroll. She never said a word, didn't point out that I could save a dollar by switching the sides around. So the people are all I thought plus kind and conscientious. Marvelous. I was delighted with everything I ate. The entree was enough for two, so supper came home with me. The eggroll was fresh and crisp and non-greasy, seemed homemade. Excellent. The eggplant was perfectly prepared and cooked, as was the pork. Delicious. The hot and sour soup was easily one of the best I've had, and I'm always looking for a great hot and sour soup. Coming from downtown Buffalo, we'd been in Williamsville because I had an appointment on Essjay Rd. Afterward, we looked for a place to have lunch before shopping. Finding Golden Hill at 4001 Sheridan Dr. in Amherst was pure serendipity. You can bet, though, that I will visit again after next appointment.

The servings are definitely smaller than other places and the quality is not that great. The flavors seemed off. I've had these dishes and soups numerous timed from multiple other Chinese restaurants throughout WNY but this place just had very odd flavors and strange consistency to the food. The Hot and Sour soup was lacking flavor and had snot-like clumps in it. The chicken soup with mei fun noodles tasted bitter, almost spoiled or massive amounts of rice vinegar in it. The triple delight combo container was 85% rice and 15% triple delight (very small serving of the entree). The veggie dish and Happy Family were lackluster in flavor and the containers were not filled all the way (only about 3/4 of the way full). There are seats and about 6 tables inside and plenty of parking in the plaza parking lot. The staff is friendly and have everything ready in the usual 10 to 15 minutes. This place works if you are desperate, don't mind weird flavors or lack of flavor, and enjoy getting less than the container can hold. Otherwise, stay away from this place, there are many other Chinese restaurants in the area that are much better.

He included a fortune cookie for dessert. I have been getting food here for years. When my kids were sick, and we had to cancel our Thanksgiving plans last minute, they were open. We were thankful. The owners live in the neighborhood, so we would see them watching fireworks at UB. They used to have a large, handwritten Chinese menu on a whiteboard on the wall. You know they are good, like when you see Italians in an Italian restaurant. They serve others who know what's good. I couldn't read the white board, but sometimes I would ask her for something off that menu. She would ask a few questions to narrow it down. Yes, it was good. :) They also serve typical American General Tso's, etc. My favorite is their shrimp egg foo young, without the gravy. We moved away, and I can't find a place we like nearly as well.

Although the dim sum menu is a single page, there are enough different kinds of foods here that even the pickiest of eaters will find something to satisfy them. Vegetarians and vegans will be happy here too. I was really pleased to see that hot and cold soy milks are offered: This restaurant caters to the Asian community, many of whom are lactose-intolerant. The bao are $5.50 - $6.50 for a steamer basket of 3-5 items; it's listed on the menu how many bao to expect, in case you're dining with a crowd. (And you really should!) The congee is listed as "small bowls" for $7.50, but I think at least 3-4 cups of soup fits there. It's easily shared. The stuffed eggplant I ate in Nanjing had ground pork, garlic scapes, and ginger. The ones served here are stuffed with an enormous sweet shrimp in each piece of tender eggplant: Better than I remember. The sesame balls were a little different too: I remember a pale, sweet paste inside a crispy deep-fried ball covered in sesame seeds. Here, the inner paste was sweet and black, but the flavor was the same. So was the joy in eating them. The pork with black bean sauce was so tender and delicious! We made that plate disappear! The har gow/crystal shrimp were perfect. We plan to return soon to try their spicy beef noodles ($13.95) and custard tarts - the recipe for which the Portuguese Jesuits brought to Macao in the 16th century. The atmosphere of the Golden Duck is very relaxed: A dim sum meal is usually a time to drink a little tea, eat a little food, and get caught up with family or friends. There's a full bar if you're celebrating; there's also a private banquet room. The regular menu is also available during the dim sum hours, as is a Mongolian buffet. The regular menu has Peking duck, available with some notice. My favorite celebration meal! Parking is in a strip mall lot, well off the street.
