Golden Phoenix

I like this place and recommend it. The food is good. 4 stars not 5 because it is hit or miss on if something is spicy or not but is always tasty. I always check the extra spicy option. It may be depending upon who is cooking on any given day, but only guessing. No stars for atmosphere because it is still take out only and therefor it has none.

We love this place. Food is always hot even delivered. I think the Thai green chicken curry is awesome and my daughter dreams about their lomein. We think the crab Rangoon is really good. Their cook time is quick.

They have the most gluten free options of anywhere I have seen in the area, of any cuisine. We order as often as budget allows, as there are too many dishes we love! Of course there have been off days here and there, but overall we love this place!

Food and service were both absolutely excellent! We will definitely be back!

My favorite place to go for gluten free chinese food. I prefer it over PF Chang's. Better portions, and better prices. Plus, if you dine in, they serve you free hot tea.

This is easily the best Chinese in the eastern suburbs and perhaps further. Since I've been back in the Rochester area I have gotten take-out from here two or three times a week, and it's their distinct committment to quality food and a high standard of personalized service that has kept me coming back so often. Golden Phoenix offers a broad selection of dishes distinguished by their use of excellent quality meats and other ingredients. I have tried much of the menu and am always left impressed. While primarily a Chinese restaurant, they also offer a Thai menu, and I will always choose theirs over the Thai restaurant across the street. I would also like to highlight the excellent service and wonderful people here. This is a family owned and run business; the owner himself is often making your meal. Everyone is very friendly and good for a conversation. I often have some requests to make when ordering Asian food in general- I like my dish very spicy, I like to pay for extra meat, and I sometimes dislike a certain vegetable or two in a dish. My requests are always honored here, because it is clear they value their customers and want to do good work. These qualities are rarer than they should be- the Golden Phoenix is a special place to me.

I always love coming here. Their gluten free section is huge. Where else can you have 70 options to choose from. Most places have like 5 things. Super tasty. I live over 3 hours away and make sure to eat here whenever I am in the area. I also make up excuses to come up/pass through the area just to eat here.

The food here was great- tasted fresh, flavourful, and cooked correctly for optimum texture. the food came in a timely manner as well. The service was also great. This place is a local family business and the whole family helps to make this place a comfortable spot for a bite to eat. There are no booths- the business is nestled in a “house” and thus is quite small. It’s great if you’re looking for a quieter scene with a small diner feel. They even have two silenced and captioned TVs in opposite corners with news channels on for viewing and conversation. Overall, I give this place 4 stars. It’s a bit small and outdated in style but the food here is great and what it lacks it makes up for in great food quality- these guys can cook! I definitely recommend if you’re looking for some very tasty Chinese food in a small diner setting!

They are pick up only, which isn't a downside. Their food, for some reason, hasn't been great the past few times we have picked up from here. Rice tasted like a bowl of soy sauce. 😐

Saw that this restaurant offered Thai food on the menu, which we were in the mood for. Had heard that they do great Chinese, so gave it a shot. We ordered take out, and did not eat in the restaurant. Unfortunately, all four appetizers and three entrees didn't exactly live up to our expectations. The best of the group was most likely the Pad Khee Mao. The Pad Thai was a little bland, and the Green curry had very little heat. The Crab Rangoon tasted over-fried. Portions were massive, but I would have traded a bit of quantity for a little more flavor. Additionally, I was a bit shocked at the bill when I arrived. I'll admit I ordered 7 items, but I felt that the prices could have been more reasonable for what we got. All in all the menu is huge, and I'm sure there's a lot to like - but next time we'll stick to the Chinese side of the menu.
