The last order I received is the last. The pu pu platter was all old. They always give you recooked food. The only reason I used them this time I thought they may have improved. Someone is going to get food poisoning. Even the egg rolls were as hard as a rock. I have had it.

Looks like a typical Chinese restaurant. Ordered sesame chicken and paid more for white meat. Chicken was heavily sauced with a very sweet sauce. The breading was not crispy at all and the chicken was overall very soggy. I would not known it was sesame chicken except for a few sesame seeds on the top. Small portions for over $17 worth of food. I will not be ordering from here again.

Must say this is the best Chinese food we have had in a very long time. We had the Chicken amazing and the Mongolian beef, both were to die for. The tenderness of the chicken was perfect and the sauce on the Chicken amazing is….. well amazing! The Mongolian was tender as well. I will not be ordering from anywhere else from now on, this is my new go to.

We used to enjoy this place but the quality has gone down, some of the meats are like leather, just seems extremely old and low quality every time. Higher prices and lower quality? No thanks :(

3 strikes your out....3rd time in a row I've called for takeout and had items missing from order....also on menu pu-pu platter advertises 4 spare ribs but 3rd time in a row only 3...First time though I had the food spill as the containers weren't closed properly.....getting worse every time. I'm going back to Amazing Wok which may cost $2 or $3 more but is much better all around....

Found something of a jellyfish spine in my chow mein, I personally wouldn’t order again from here but I’d say give it a shot. My boyfriend was fond of the unidentified gelatinous substance (UGS).

There's actually almost no chicken in the general tso , it's literally all breading and everything else was just sub par quality and flavor. Just a disappointment, stay awayParking: Lot is tight and crowded

The food was NOT COOKED people. Would highly NOT recommended anyone to subject themselves to food poisoning. Shrimp was raw , batter was raw , everything was cold! Not to mention they SQUEEZED the sauce cup, that their dirty ungloved hands touched, on top of my food! How disgusting! The girl at the front was more worried about flirting with my husband than getting my order correct. Had to call them to now deliver the RAW shrimp. Shame on you, will be calling the health department

I was waiting for my food,as I was waiting I witness one of the cooks drop food on the floor and pick the food up off the floor and put it back in the tray close it and pit it in a bag for the costumer!! Smh. I will never eat there again!!!

Food just isnt the same anymore. Tried the bourbon chicken today and I think its the last straw for me, it is inedible. Chicken is SO tough and stringy, not what was expected at all. Think I am gonna go back to New China. I mean just look at the picture, what is that!

While visiting family in Niskayuna, we did a take-out order from Golden House Chinese. We ordered appetizers, soups and entrees to feed eight people. The hot & sour soup was bland and not hot. The egg drop soup was hot. Go figure. Shrimp toast did not look anything like shrimp toast but looked and tasted like deep fried ground pork balls. Surprised a lot of people. Egg rolls were not hot but tasted okay. Of the eight entrees, most looked similar and tasted the same. Also, most dishes were not hot enough.

Wow! Outstanding food! Even better than food I have had in China Town in SFO. Delicious sauce, spicy but not overpowering, nice cuts of meat, expertly fried.

I wish I could give 0. I will be contacting the health dept also. Par cooked chicken just sitting out and looked nasty. Lucky no one has gotten food poisoning or maybe they have. No gloves being used at all. So all raw food is being touched with cooked food. I don't know why anyone would order from here when there are so many other places. I will never order food from here unless you want to take a chance on getting sick.
