Golden Dragon Dining San Francisco Reviews
The portion sizes are enormous and the food is delicious!
Good food. Seseme chicken tastes great, and so did the shrimp and fish, although a bit spicy. Enjoyed the pot stickers too.
Absolutely loved this place in San Francisco, it was a fluke we found it and loved it. Le loved it so much we ordered a ton of foot to take back home.
Customer service was great. Locals come here to enter joy a nice meal. The duck was the exquisite
Super good place to get authentic dimsum and Chinese food in China Town 👍🏻
Wonderful
We could have been in any restaurant in China Fantastic food and service
This is good chinese food. It wasn't all super greasy and didn't mess up my stomach like some other places. The server was cool to my kid and despite the mess she made he didn't seem to mind. Usually we clean up after her but the server insisted and so we paid and left.

It’s a typical Chinese restaurant. Food was good. The Peking duck was excellent. The sweet and sour pork was just okay. The yang chow fried rice was good. The egg drop soup lacks spices. We were seated immediately and the food was brought out without much waiting.
Got some affordable dim sum here, good for a snack after a long trip
It appears to be a local favorite. When you walk in, it takes you a world away to somewhere in Asia. Decent food, good service, and very golden decor. A little disappointing that they charge tea per person when most places offer it while you look through menu. Give this place a try if you're in China town🥳. (Hope they will stop charging tea for its patrons soon🤞🏼)
Not fancy environment but great taste of food! Small group dinner, ordered 4 dishes. Roasted duck and fry rice are highly recommended! Mapo tofu and garlic stir fry vegetables were so so. A bit disappointed they serve tea bag instead of loose leaf tea. Generous portion and reasonably priced.
This restaurant is lively and located in the heart of Chinatown. Overall, the food is good and the choices are abundant.

Filthy restaurant and their bathroom was disgusting and food just tasted like salt.
Seen at least 8 big rats casually crawling around the restaurant at night.
THE WORST SERVICE! Worst restaurant I have ever been to. The waiters DO NOT LISTEN TO YOU, they were taking our order without listening to us. I was in some kind of shock and just shut up. Then the waiter started to offer us food pointing to other tables and showing their food. Eventually we got our food which was ok, just ok. Lastly, they were trying to charge us extra $80 for some food that we dis not orhter and did not eat. Last straw was when they practically made us to leave a tip. I mean, I've never even heard of something like this. Besides, terribly noisy, we couldn't hear each other. The bathrooms.....ew! Spare you some nerves, don't go there, especially if you don't speak Chinese.
Worst experience of our San Francisco trip. Extremely rude and unfriendly. They would only let us order a few things because they said they would run out but all of the people near us who came in later were getting tables full of food. Was it because we were the only non-Asians in the restaurant? I don't know but it was the worst and grumpiest service we have ever received. We've lived in three different countries and eat out a lot, and this restaurant wins for worst experience.
The waitress actually asked us for a $30 dollar tip in cash. Tips are supposed to be for outstanding service and up to the customer.The food was just okay nothing special and the service not too friendly. I would not recommend this restaurant. This was in October of 2022 when we visited China Town.
We have been here for dinner, and the service was extremely unfriendly, the food was okay but one of us had stomach issues afterwards. The atmosphere was also terrible, overall the worst dinner we had in three weeks of vacation.
