Food was flavorful and authentic. Staff were very polite and attentive. Prices were really good and the atmosphere of the restaurant is really chill

I spent £22 for a wonton soup and a mixed meat chow mein. My soup was TINY and had 4 wontons and the chow mein had 1 prawn and barely any meat.

I asked the staff for a recommendation and had the chicken fried noodles. It was so delicious. The soy sauce-based sauce was a bit bitter, so I added iced tea and it came out to about 13 pounds. If you purchase in cash, you will receive a 10% discount. I also ate the lunch box. To eat a lunch box, you just have to choose a main side dish and one carbohydrate. I had soy sauce pork and egg fried rice and it wasn't bad. It was good because there was a lot of food.

Your rider delivered the order to someone else. I am awaiting a call back from a team leader to discuss this as the person on the live chat said I didn’t give my correct address but I did. The rider obviously did not ask the person who took my order what their name was or what the order number was. Had they done so they would have known it wasn’t me. Often riders say” are you Justin “ rather than saying what is your name.

Thought of going here for many years but finally decided to, and it was lovely. Not the usual Chinese buffet fare, original and authentic dishes. Very generous portion sizes. Pics of wok fried pork and beef noodles, and I can’t remember the correct names for the rest!! All of us enjoyed our meals, including the coconut milk/water canned drinks!

First of all, as soon as I entered the restaurant I realised a bad smell, like live stock (poultry). Then when I saw down to look at the menu (possibly for take away due to the stench), my arms got sticky on the table top. I then realised all tables are in a similar state. The man behind the counter seemed uninterested in my presence. Even when I was talking to him he gave one word answers, although his English was great, when I heard him talking on the phone later. The food came after a solid 25 minutes, even though the restaurant seemed empty, not many online orders and it was only fried noodles that I had ordered. When I finally got my food, it was placed on the table, like how I throw food to my dogs. So I decided not to eat it and left. I know it’s only a Chinese restaurant in Selly Oak. But the prices are more on the high end. So I guess my mistake for expecting anything at all.

Great place for reasonably priced Chinese food in Selly Oak; especially if you’ve lived in Asia/ south east Asia previously, this place definitely makes you feel comfortable and close to home. The price is fair for the portions with a nice set menu that I often order. Steven is a great lad who really looks out for his guests and gives great suggestions if you’re looking to try new dishes there. I’m a proud regular at this restaurant!

My recent dining experience at Golden City Chinese Restaurant left me absolutely delighted with their delectable offerings. I am thrilled to share my five-star review, highlighting the mouthwatering feast that included Sichuan Spicy Fish, Crispy Pork Chops, and sizzling Iron Plate Beef. Let's start with the star of the show—the Sichuan Spicy Fish. This dish was a fiery symphony of flavors that had my taste buds dancing with delight. The tender fish fillets were generously coated in a rich and aromatic Sichuan pepper-infused sauce, packing a punch of heat and numbing sensation that I couldn't resist. The combination of spice and freshness made this dish an absolute culinary masterpiece. Next up were the Crispy Pork Chops, and they were nothing short of perfection. Each chop was expertly fried to a golden crisp, revealing juicy and succulent meat within. The thin, crunchy coating provided a delightful contrast to the tender pork, creating a delightful texture and taste combination. It was a true comfort food indulgence that left me craving more. The sizzling Iron Plate Beef was a visual and flavorful treat. As the iron plate arrived at our table, the beef was still sizzling, releasing enticing aromas. The tender strips of beef were complemented by a medley of colorful vegetables and a savory sauce that tied all the flavors together beautifully. Every bite was a burst of satisfaction, making it a dish I'll be returning for again and again. Beyond the exquisite dishes, I must praise the attentive and friendly service at Golden City. The staff was knowledgeable about the menu and made us feel welcome throughout the entire meal. The ambiance was inviting, creating a pleasant environment to enjoy our dining experience. To top it all off, the prices at Golden City were more than reasonable for the quality and portion sizes. It's clear that this restaurant values both taste and affordability, making it a standout choice for an exceptional dining outing. In conclusion, Golden City Chinese Restaurant has earned my highest recommendation. Their Sichuan Spicy Fish, Crispy Pork Chops, and Iron Plate Beef showcased the best of Chinese flavors and culinary expertise. With attentive service, inviting surroundings, and excellent value, Golden City is a must-visit for anyone craving an unforgettable Chinese dining experience.

Golden City Chinese Restaurant was money well spent. They give you this huge tray of food, including seaweed soup, rice and meat, salad, even fruits, like the one in the picture. The meat portion is also much, I couldn't finish mine. Had to get a takeaway which they provide free of charge with a nylon bag for you carry leftovers home. The only thing is that they only take cash and that is somewhat common to Chinese restaurant. So take cash along or you might have to go and withdraw at the ATM which is less than 2 minutes walk away.

Your food tastes like sadness, tiny portions, unappetising presentation and no flavour. The service is somehow worse. The owner in particular is defensive and rude about constructive criticism. This might be the reason why it was empty, so at least it's quiet. 2 star for quiet atmosphere.

Lost for words, 5th time coming here and definitely will be the last. Our food was brought out in take away containers which was then put onto plates. So we received take away food/costs and paid full price for dine in menu costs which is alot more. We were given cheap salt and pepper chicken which was cold dry and tasteless. Chef came out to use toilet and made a horrid throat noise which sound like he was being sick and he ate his OWN food lol. This restaurant has gone very down hill. Zero etiquette. Will never be coming here again.

Food was bland. Had to add salt and soya sauce at home myself. Paid extra for salt and pepper chips… they just tasted like soggy, cold frozen chips with a few pieces of veg in there. Not an ounce of flavour. £13.90 for a tiny Tupperware of vegan chicken which is from wing yip and they charge around £5 for the entire bag there which Golden City are getting at least 5 portions out. Absolute rip off merchants. No seasoning in sight. Avoid!!!!!

This order was place fraudulently on my just eat account by some low life in Birmingham, 80 miles from where I live. The restaurant were less than helpful and said it was up to just eat to sort who I cannot get hold of. They said they would deliver the food regardless of me saying I hadn’t ordered it so this fraudster has got away with £40 worth of food, I have not had to cancel the card used and no contact back from just eat despite the severity of the situation.

I rang the restaurant to ask why the food was so late he said that he had nothing to do with deliveries in an agressive way then hung up the phone. While that may be correct, is this the right attitude to have towards customers?

New favourite Chinese! We got: -Mock chicken with satay -Mock chicken Szechuan spicy sauce -Boiled rice -Vegan steamed dumplings (we got an extra one! 6 rather than 5) -Veggie mock noodles And for free: -Veg spring rolls -Crackers -A little handwritten note from Miss Li- such a sweet and personal touch. Everything was delicious, big portions and arrived quickly. The menu selection is huge and I was so impressed by the textures and flavours and the vegan options were amazing. Super happy to have found this place, it’s the only Chinese I will go to now!
