I reckon it's because the Seaside Caesars and perfectly spiced mimosas had something to do with it. But it was worth the wait. Edith and the staff were very friendly and recommended what were her faves. Looking forward to the next time I'm here in this beautiful and breath taking valley. Mahalo CPT Blythe

We were the only customers on the patio so it was nice to relax and just enjoy the evening. We had a bottle of wine and shared a tomato mozarrela salad to start. It was very good. For entrees I had a special of the day - schnitzel with onion sauce and my husband had a pork dish in a mushroom sauce with noodles. My schnitzel was very good but my husband thought the pork in his dish was very dry. The service was good and it was a very enjoyable evening.

Beef was tender and broccoli done tender crisp. Cantonese chow mien with good amounts of shrimp, pork & chicken cooked to perfection with yummy sauce on crunchy noodle. Egg rolls were large, hot, packed full and so tasty. The service was quick and attentive without being intrusive. Very friendly! The place was well lit with a nice decor and was also spotless. We've had good Chinese elsewhere, but nothing better than Golden Carriage! Did I mention it was very reasonably priced?

I've never seen that before and it was very disappointing. The broccoli and beef was plentiful but hardly any sauce and not much flavour. The Cantonese chow mein had very little noodles and was very bland and it needed something in the way of sauce. We were not too happy as it cost $80 with a tip. We Will not order from there again.
