Salt and chilli spare ribs were great but the main courses were quite poor. There was too much ginger and practically raw onion (not spring onion) in the Beef with Spring Onion and Ginger. Likewise again there was too much almost raw onion with the Chicken with pepper and black bean sauce and the the pepper with the chicken dish was also uncooked. I know the chinese stir fry quickly and the vegetable should still be crunchy but the vegetables in the dishes we had only been shown the wok. We won't be going back

There's 2 menus to choose from that are all you can eat. Abit confusing upon book because it's called a buffet but the food is ordered and brought to you. Prices range from 12.50 to 16.95 depending on which menu you choose. Restaurant is open 7 days a week, service is great and drinks are responsible.

Went into the restaurant to order a takeaway and was disgusted to see the counter was covered in ants. After noticing this i asked for a refund as i would not be eating their food due to poor hygiene. At first the woman at the counter was reluctant to give me the money back until i pointed out where they were coming from and she finally gave me my money back. Very disappointed and will not be returning.

Went here last year for a takeaway so nice decided to go in to the restaurant, so glad I did fantastic meal went for a buffet meal while the kids had chicken and chips a wonderful way to try out the different food unbelievably busy the night we were in only 1 member of staff to answer phone takeaway orders and serving food in the restaurant and the service was still excellent a wonderful place to go highly recommend it.

So I did have some difficulties explaining what gluten free was, however we got there eventually and I had a chicken and mushroom dish. It was takeaway, arrived nice and hot and obviously cooked fresh. Very difficult to find a Chinese that offers a gf meal so I want to praise them fir trying but I did find this particular dish a little bland. Having said that, all my other party thoroughly enjoyed their meals

I have eaten in the Golden Dragon on a few occasions, and also had takeaway. Great selection of Cantonese food, very fast and lovely and hot in temperature. I have tried both types of the eat in buffets. And they are both delisious.

Have visited here many times and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves but our visit last night was not so good. The waitresses are usually very friendly, helpful and efficient but unfortunately the waitress we had last night (who we hadn't seen before) was quite the opposite. Our meals were literally plonked on the table with no finesse whatsoever ever. She didn't even know what the meals were, so we had to guess. She appeared uninterested in the customers and clearly would benefit from some training in people skills! Very off putting ☹️

This is probably better known as a good take-away, but their sit-down restaurant is even better. The restaurant can seat about 40 guests, it is plain, functional, but not unpleasant. Good to see they concentrate on good food rather than "fancy" wallpaper.Mostly Cantonese, comprehensive menu, all very tasty, and the portions are generous. Good wines and beers, some spirits, too. I have been going there for many years, never disappointed. Definitely recommended.

Take away service was quick but then the noodles were cold and the beef was just bland rubber. Free poppadoms were not at all fresh as you could bend them and they wouldn't snap. Stay clear if you value your taste buds.

Absolutely awful service, the staff clearly do not want you to be there, have no interest in serving you and clearly can't wait to get rid of you. Children of staff running around unattended, smells of tobacco coming from the kitchen are just the start. Extremely long waiting times, freezing cold restaurant, absolutely no atmosphere and to top it off below average food which tasted like it had been reheated from hours before. Yes it's cheap and for a reason, a night in front of the TV with a sweet and sour ready meal would've been far more satisfying and enjoyable.

We have used this restaurant/takeaway on several occasions over the last year, and we have been very happy with the quality of food it produces, we travel 20 minutes to pick up this takeaway and are happy to do so for the standard of food produced.We have been working our way through the menu although we do have our favourites, all the sweet and sours are brilliant and the flavour of the sauces are really authentic. The different flavoured rices Re really good although my favourite it the house special fried rice, and the. Noodles Vermicelli Singapore style is amazing.We have never been disappointed with this takeaway, why not give it a try, you may like it as much as we do.

all i can say is it filled a hole. not that impressed to be honest just a normal chinese take away. in my personal opinion the place could do with a lick of paint and the front windows cleaning and the cardboard removced from the pie heater where the keep the poppadoms. food was ok nothing special. would i go there again . yes but only if there was no other alternative in the area otherwise will travel a few miles down the road to rogerstone to another one but this is my preference as its just the same old same old.i will try it again in a few months and if its better i will revise my review but at the moment i stand by above

New choice of venue for a friends' birthday, only 2 of our party of 8 having been there before. The restaurant was empty on our arrival and drinks were ordered. The only wine available by the glass (175ml) was the house wine. We decided on a bottle of Chenin Blanc which was reasonably priced @ £13 95 - but it was out of stock. We settled on glasses of house red & white which was ok.The ordering procedure was explained to us & we ordered 2 platters of combined Starters (each for 4 people) which consisted of Crispy seaweed, Ribs, Prawn Toast, Spring Rolls, Satay chicken all of which we enjoyed.Our Mains (4 of us deciding to order different dishes & sample each others') were Chicken Curry, Sweet & sour chicken, Crispy shredded beef, Cantoneese chicken, Beef in Oyster sauce, & 3 other dishes) with portions of rice & stir fried noodles - all very tasty.If we wanted to order further dishes - if still hungry - we could have.This was an excellent value evening meal @ £10 99pp - we visited on a Thursday & we all enjoyed it as we were able to try numerous dishes.

The food was lovely and plentiful however there was a little boy there on a Thursday evening in his school uniform playing with a marble - I felt very sorry for him as its not a place for him to be at that time of the evening with school the next morning - very unprofessional.When we finished our meal we were sat there for 40 minutes and nobody cleared away our plates although we were the only customers there and the staff had walked past several times. The staff were just sat at the desk talking to each other in another language which I felt was very rude.In the end I was fed up of waiting and had to shout over to them for the bill - which they replied 'okay' and then carried on talking to each other in another language - they didn't even move! After another 5-10 minutes of waiting our bill was brought to our table.The restaurant was very cold and uninviting and I will not be returning.

The whole time we were here there was a little boy (belonging to the owner) running around throwing marbles... Not very professional and if we'd expected that we would of gone somewhere else!! Food was average... Staff were quite poor!! Took ages for our meals to be taken away and then even longer for the bill to be brought to us... And we were the only ones there!! I appreciate it's only small but it is a business at the end of the day, and should be run like one!!

Tasty takeaway chicken curry, but ... so much salt! Always after I've eaten here I have a salt after taste and a big thirst. Having said that the staff are friendly, you can get a takeaway meal for two here for about £11 which is amazing and the chips are good. It's a bit random giving free poppadoms with a Chinese meal though, swapping to prawn crackers would make the world make sense again.

Messed up order, sent the rest 20 minutes later refusing to provide a fresh order so had to reheat in microwave and to top it off stinking attitude and huffing noises down the phone from a stroppy sounding teenager. Cold food, wrong food, terrible attitude and that's the thanks I had for 5 years as a loyal customer. Will NEVER order again.

Went to the Golden Dragon as a family. It took ages before anyone took our order and then we waited over 40 minutes for them to bring it. The place was empty so they where not even busy. They say it is all you can eat but thats a bit hard when no one serves you. The resturant is to small, the staff are grumpy. Dont waste your life go some where else.

Came here with three friends on a Saturday evening, (we went out of our way to drive up after a friend recommended it ) we were promptly sat at a table in a cold room that had the atmosphere of an empty school hall. There was no music playing what so ever, and there was no other customers there. There was however what seemed to be off duty staff sat a few tables away from us talking in Chinese, with a few small children.The waitress took our drinks order, I asked for water, and got a really horrible look from the waitress, who definitely didn't want to be there and didn't want us to be there.We had the all you can eat meal. It took quite some time to come out, and everything was sour and extremely salty, the chicken was rubbery and over cooked. I can honestly say it tasted like it had been heated up in the microwave a few times. I've had better left overs. the service after this was extremely slow.We left hungry, and went and got a sandwich on our way home from the local corner shop.Was told that this place was a great place to eat with friends. We found it awkward, uninviting, with rude moody staff and horrible food. Will never come back.

Went for the all you can eat buffet midweek menu for 10.99. The food choice was very good with a wide range of starters and main courses. Everything was freshly cooked, really tasty and the ingredients were quality. Without doubt from now on I will be getting my take away food from here and would be happy to have another sit down meal. My only minor grip is the place lacks ambience and could do with the odd screen here and there with some more homely decor to break things up and make it less like a cafe and more like a restaurant.

This is the first time we have eaten in the restaurant here and the food was lovely. We had the buffet menu and it is all cooked to order but we were still able to sample a variety of different dishes. The food was very tasty, hot and the service was quick. The restaurant does let it down a little as it was cold and the lights are too bright and lacked atmosphere. The takeaway was very busy. The toilets were clean. The drinks were very reasonably priced and the house wine (red) was very nice. We would eat here again and recommend.

Called just now to order Salt and Chilli chicken balls off their paper menu as a proper portion so i can order a full portion of chips to go with it but was told they only sell them as a portion of 5 with chips which is a completely different item on their menu. The lady serving couldn't even honour the order as advertised on their paper menu. Will not be ordering from here again.

Recently i visited the historical Morgan Jones Park in Caerphilly with my sister and nephews. This was our first visit and the children enjoyed playing on the swings, slide and climbing frame, before visiting the splash pad with water jets. At lunch we enjoyed a picnic and there was plenty of green space. After lunch the boys visited the skate park and we enjoyed a walk around the flower gardens and the boys used the outside gym. After our walk we purchased drinks from the Old Library Cafe. This was a fantastic park with tennis courts, football and cricket pitches, and a bowling green. The boys continued playing in the park until about 18:30, but before heading home the boys suggested picking up a takeaway tea (to share with my husband and brother in-law). Earlier in the day we met a local family who recommended the Chinese takeaway Golden Valley on Mill Road. We managed to find the takeaway and ordered sweet and sour chicken balls, egg fried rice, chips, vegetable spring rolls, prawn crackers, sticky lemon chicken, duck l,'orange and beef in black bean sauce. At the takeaway we received lovely customer service and the food was cooked fresh to order. The food was still really hot when we got home. All dishes tasted scrumptious and were made with lots of fresh vegetables. Sometime in the near future we will return to both the park (hidden gem close to all amenities including the shops and castle) and Golden Valley because the food tasted fantastic and was excellent value for money.
