About Golden Tree Cafe
Golden Tree Cafe, situated at 1722 W 12600 S, Riverton, UT 84065, USA, is a local Chinese restaurant. Based on recent customer feedback, experiences have been largely negative regarding the food quality.
Several reviewers described the food as "horrible" and among the worst they have ever tasted. Specific criticisms include overcooked and gummy noodles, egg rolls with a "sterile" or "bandaid" taste, and generally bland dishes. One family reported that the chicken in their meals (#90 and #100) was dry and surprisingly tasteless despite being covered in sauce, and the fried rice was also bland. The Beef Noodle Gravy was deemed so unappetizing that it was inedible after a single bite. This group collectively decided against taking any leftovers, as none of them finished their meals.
One reviewer mentioned that the Egg Drop soup, which came with some meals, was good. In an otherwise overwhelmingly negative review, the only positive comment was about the quality of the water.
Given the strong negative feedback concerning the food, potential customers may want to consider these recent experiences when deciding whether to dine at Golden Tree Cafe. For any inquiries, the restaurant can be contacted at (801) 254-7651 or +1 801-254-7651.

The food was HORRIBLE! The noodles are overcooked and gummy, the egg rolls have a sterile taste, they honestly taste like a bandaid. 3 people at the table all took 1-2 bits, and we all are done! What an absolute joke! This is the worst food I've ever had. I never, and I mean, never leave a bad review. But there was absolutely nothing good about this food. Ops, I lied, my wife just said the water was good.
Decided as a family we wanted Chinese. Hadn’t been to the Golden Tree Cafe for a few years and decided we wanted that. We were sat quickly and ordered. Two of our meals came with Egg Drop soup which was good. We had the #90, #100 and the Beef Noodle Gravy and egg rolls. The egg rolls tasted old. The chicken for the 90&100 were dry and even though covered in the sauce, surprisingly bland. The fried rice was bland. The Beef Noodle Gravy was so bad that only one bite was taken. The overall food was so bad that we as a group agreed to not take home any leftovers. None of us finished any of our plates.
Been going there since they opened up. Loved it for years, but the last few years it has gone down hill. Stop going then we would give them another chance. It kept going down hill. Went last night it was horrible! The fried rice was bland with ham not even tasting like ham. The noodles in the soup were gummy. That was the LAST TIME
It was Chinese food night and we picked the Golden Tree Chinese & American food restaurant. The restaurant has been a Riverton, UT favorite for over 30 years. I haven't visited the Golden Tree for almost 20 years. The food was delicious and the service was great just like I remembered! We will be going back and ordering take out soon! We tried one of their dinner combos for two. The meal came with soup, coffee or tea and you picked four menu items. The soup was so good and our toddler loved it. We also had the chicken lo mein, pork loved mein, two egg rolls, ham fried rice and honey chicken. The portions are a great size and we have a good amount of leftovers for tomorrow. The lo main dishes had a good balance of noodles, vegetables and protein. The ham fried rice was just what you want and it was a great addition to the noodles when you mix everything together. The egg rolls come with a yummy house sauce with spicy mustard. Too spicy for me. I asked for a side of sweet n' sour sauce and they were great! The honey chicken was just the right amount of sweet and crunchy on the outside with tender chicken. If you are looking for a great family friendly Chinese & American restaurant try the Golden Tree in Riverton.
Wow...just horrible. I cannot believe how bad the food was here. The soup was bland with no flavor whatsoever. Their chicken was overcooked and rubbery, and the ham fried rice was crunchy. Plus, the ambiance is horrible. A rundown, second rate hole in the wall. It was a sad, sad experience. I don't understand how other reviewers rated this place above a 2-star. Especially with so many better Chinese restaurants within minutes of this location. Yikes.
