Only ordered wonton soup and egg rolls, soup was tasteless and the wontons were mushy. If the egg rolls got any flatter from filling they may as well be called crispy dough. Really disappointed we are limited in our area but that will be the last time we order from there outrageously priced as well

We have been a few times, food has never been mind blowing. Tonight it was disgusting. The rice was old, the vegetables were rotten tasting, the spring rolls tasted like pastey rotted meat. Too much cornstarch used in the meal. It was so gross we couldn’t finish our meal. Also they have shrunk the size of their chicken balls.? 9verall gross! Try somewhere else.

The service was friendly and fast. The chicken fried rice was good, as were the chicken balls. The beef in the beef and broccoli was slimy and the meat (chicken?) in the chow mein was was questionable. I know Chinese food has a low bar, but this didn't reach it. Hopefully the new owners get their feet under themselves and improve with time.

Finding an eat-in Chinese food restaurant in our area since Covid is next to impossible. They are all take-out only. So, when we discovered that the Golden Wheel has dine in, we were thrilled.Four of us went for lunch today, Saturday. To start off, it was very cold in the restaurant. We mentioned it to the lady serving us, she turned up a propane/gas fireplace. Minimal difference. Our food, dinner for 4 came relatively quickly. The egg rolls and spring rolls were ok, not fantastic. The sweet and sour chicken balls were very good, full of chicken rather than just batter. The beef and broccoli was a ton of broccoli with very little meat. The meat on the platter was not identifiable as beef. The chicken in the chop suey was also questionable, shiny bordering on slimy. The honey garlic ribs were very dry. The fried rice was just ok.We did not complain to the server. We just will not return. Basically, we spent $60+ (cost of dinner for 4) for good chicken balls. We do not recommend.

I heard good things about Golden wheel so I decided to give it a chance. Staff were very polite, but the food was very bad, we barely ate any of it. Maybe just a bad night but personally won’t be going back.

Ordered our usual, chicken wings, fried rice, chicken balls, sweet and sour shrimp, egg rolls. We've been going to Golden Wheel for about 16 years. Ownership has changed hands a few times, we've never really noticed a hiccup, although we are not that adventurous with our choices. Food was great this evening, as it was when we ordered in the summer. Shrimp was battered light and fluffy, chicken balls were generously chickened (yes, I made this word up :) with not too much batter. Husband thought the red sauce was thinner than previous, but it still had great taste, not watery. Our only complaint was that we only got 2 fortune cookies, for a meal that would easily serve 4. Golden Wheel will still be our go-to for local Chinese Food.
