Golden Chopsticks

First time here. I had the seafood casserole with steamed rice - yum! Cleaned my plate and it was a generous portion. Excellent service and a variety of selections.

I went to try this place after they reopened their new location closer to Herrera's and was very disappointed the first two times I ordered from them. The first time I ordered the veggie plate and was kind of surprised at the the lack of variety of veggies (there was maybe 3, I think), I expected more of a stir fry type dish but instead, the vegetables were sitting in a thick light colored liquid. I was a little too thrown off by it so, I just ate the white rice. The second time I tried them, I ordered the sweet and sour chicken but could only eat 2 pieces as the chicken tasted like FISH. I figured that maybe they used the same oil to fry both? I gave them a third try because their lunch plates are VERY cheap (they include a bowl of soup and an egg roll) and was glad I did because their beef and broccoli was MUCH better than the chicken and veggies. My plate came with two scoops of rice (I went with the fried rice) and a very tasty egg roll! I chose not to have the soup as I didn't like it the first time I got it (dumpling) and didn't want to waste it. The young man who works the counter is very friendly and helpful, while the female is cold and rude, so the 4 stars in service are really for the young man. My opinion is that their lunch plate prices (about 10 bucks) are fair for the quality and taste of the food they serve but I definitely would not pay dinner prices.

We have ordered take out from Golden Chopsticks for a long time, and were sad that it closed. SURPRISE! They reopened at a better location in the same shopping center. (The sign over the door says “Gold Chop Stick”, just like the old location.) We decided to dine in rather than take out. The dining room is small and the decor is simple, as before, and very clean. The owner waited on us and served, and we talked afterwards. It was a pleasant experience, and the food was delicious.

Golden chopsticks restaurant is next to the TESLA showroom on the FM1488. I had visited their restaurant to take out food however the food quality is not as good as other Chinese restaurants. I was very disappointed in terms of taste especially the fried rice! Fried rice is a very simple recipe to execute. The flavors usually pop up when properly executed. In this case it tasted horrible. I was eating some fruits to take out the bad taste of that fried rice. Panda Express definitely still be my favorite spot as their food tastes much better, apart from PF Chang is definitely a five star experience! I rate golden chopsticks 1 star based on the taste of food, execution of the food, quality of ingredients used, and looks, etc. Nothing impressed my other than large TESLA yard with several cars and CT’s. I would not go back to Golden Chopsticks.

I'm so glad Golden Chopsticks opened back up! I can't find any other restaurant that makes chow mein like they do. It's not full of noodles like other places but rather bean sprouts ,onions, carrots, celery, and very tender white meat chicken, and it's full of chicken. I saw that someone complained about the cheese puffs not having crab in them. In my opinion, they are much better than the ones with crab because no one uses real crab anyway, just the imitation crab, which tastes disgusting. My husband and I both love their egg drop soup, as well. I just had lunch there and could only eat half of what was on my plate and I am so full! My tummy is very happy :-)
