Golden Gate Restaurant
First time here. Several friends have raved about this place. It did not disappoint. Came around 6:30 on a weeknight. Plenty of open tables. The place is well maintained, well lit, and clean. Got seated right away and attended to by our server. Trisha did a great job the entire meal. So very friendly and attentive. After getting a beer and tea, we ordered our food. A eggroll that we split, shrimp egg foo young and Mu Shu Beef. Everything we ordered was fresh, hot, and generous portions. The Shrimp Egg Foo Young patties were plump with a nice crisyp edge, with sauce that was not too thick. The Mu Shu Beef had a nice combination of vegetable, beef, with the pancakes and plum sauce. Definitely a good choice for Chinese Food. The meal was great value, al less than $40. The only issue that we had was the occasional outburst of noise/cheering from the bar area. There was a sports game on the TV and apparently the bar fans were getting excited. We are not fans of TVs in restaurants.
This restaurant has come highly recommended for years and I never had the time to give it a try. Today I did and it disappointed greatly. The flavor of everything was either lacking or just off. Chicken fried rice was almost flavorless and a little undercooked. Egg drop soup tasted like hot water. Egg roll had something in it that I thought was mushy potato until I checked and saw that it was some kind of meat. Crab Rangoon had almost no filling and the shrimp dish had way too many peanuts and generally confusing texture. I wouldn't eat here again.
