Ordered some takeaway from the golden mountain a few days ago. Please do not visit here. We waited over an hour to receive our food and we didn’t even order much. Other people would order their food after us and still receive it before. It seems as if they prefer to give the local their food before strangers! We asked the girl at the front desk a few times where our food was, and she replied very rudely saying ‘it’s not my fault’ and ‘what do you want me to do about it’. We eventually received the food after waiting for an hour. The shredded chicken we ordered was rock hard, cold and stale. Disgusting and inedible. The Kung pao chicken and rice we ordered weren’t great either, but the noodles were decent in all fairness. Overall we had a poor experience, especially with the service and wait times. Do not visit here if you are not a local!

Bought four meals for myself, the wife and kids while visiting Snowdonia and I have to say this is the worst Chinese food I have ever tried to eat. Utterly shocking.The special fu yung was a dried clump of burnt re-heated ingredients. I did my best, but had to quit half way through.The rest of the meals were no better, overcooked and without any of the tasty characteristics you come to expect from good Chinese food. Never again.

We decided to have take away one of the days, the food was packaged great, the food was hot, service was welcoming. Great portion of food given for two of us, I couldn’t finish it all but overall I recommend this restaurant

We were staying up the road in Llan Ffestiniog and one of the neighbours recommended this take away. Doesn't look much from the outside but the food was incredible, so much so we went twice within 4 days.

We've been meaning to give this place a try for some time because a number of people have said that they prefer it to the Taste Garden where we normally go.The service was warm and friendly, the menu looked very inviting (apart from the scarcity of vegetarian options) but the food was absolutely awful.Happily, our dogs aren't quite so fussy, so nothing was wasted.I shall not be going back.

Decent little takeaway, big selection of dishes. Food has always been fresh and piping hot for me. Although I do find that you have to order some dishes extra spicy if you like chilly.

Arrived to stay in the town and ordered mid evening Thursday. Mixed starter was literally like DRY LEATHER!!! Everything out of a can and the black bean sauce was particularly awful...re heated and re constituted rubbish. Makes me mad they can take people's good money!It still cost a lot too!!! Go to the Quarryman nearby!!!

Due to the limited choice of take away we had no other option but to go here after reading some of the reviews we were sceptical but hungry. Upon arriving the place was busy with people coming and going. There is a hygiene eating certificate in the window with 1 on, not sure if the date and if this was for the restaurant part or all (restaurant was shut.) We ordered half a crispy duck, Sweet & sour pork balls, had to buy rice separate and BBQ ribs with syrup. We were not holding out for anything spectacular buy up on receiving the sweet & sour I has to question if the order was correct. It was a polyester tub of bright pink sauce, no onions, peppers or pineapple literally just a sauce. She said that's how they served it despite having a picture with what is expect from sweet and sour. The staff then mentioned a Cantonese sweet and sour so maybe we should have ordered that. The duck was better than we expected, although expensive. The ribs were fine, slightly over cooked and the syrup debatable to have just been Lyons syrup.The portions were average and the prices slightly expensive as you have to buy chips/rice separate so worked our about £8 a meal. Overall mediocre

We were going to eat at Y Meirion but they only have limited servings but allow take away. Blaenau is so small that there are about three restaurants open at this time of year and three-four pubs. There are three takeaways and I opted for the higher stars. The restaurant probably doesn't care because they have a captive audience. The portions were generous but why does plain rice cost half the cost of the main dish? It's just rice. I ordered Kung Pao (or as they have it --Po) prawns. There were indeed prawns and not too stingy there and they weren't overdone. The dish contained bamboo shoots, water chestnuts and i think one or two slices of carrot and one green thing (a pepper?) This could have been all fine but the sauce was slightly spicy and super sweet. Truly the worst Chinese food I've had. I live where there are many Asian restaurants so I know what's good. The weather was terrible, the eaters were desperate, the food and the weather competed.

Was looking forward to Chinese for tea. The portions were small and do not know what meat they use in beef curry it was awful. It all went in the bin not sure what we were eating. Never go there again also the fried rice was brow and tasted awful.

We came here for food on a Sunday night. They don't deliver. I ordered a chicken chow mein and it was very strange. There was no meat in it, instead there was a strange shredded meat on the top of it, that I wasn't sure if it was chicken or not haha. It was fine tasting it was just strange. The spring rolls were lovely.

Staying nearby walked down to the Chinese as it was closest. When your not actually sure when type of meat your eating maybe you shouldn’t eat it! Rice was dry and tasteless and the 2 dishes we had was more like soup with sweaty leftover veg chucked in. The staff were rude and unprofessional saying ‘what’ when she walked out from the back and proceeded to seat the couple behind me as they were eating in.

La comida era deliciosa, barata y el servicio era rápido, como dice el título! El personal estaba dispuesto a responder a la pregunta acerca de alergenos. Teníamos arroz frito, singapore chow mein, vegetales mixtos Curry, champiñones arroz frito con huevo (no estaban contentos para personalizar este), rollitos de primavera y patatas fritas. Curry de verduras mezcladas mi era particularmente agradable. Mi única objeción era las patatas fritas eran un poco seco.

Curry de verduras que tenía, OH tenía curry especial y ambos disfrutamos de nuestras comidas. El servicio siempre con una sonrisa, con un promedio de espera de 10 a 15 minutos. Los precios son muy razonables. No estoy seguro de lo que los comentarios son muy negativos. Bien, no es el Ritz, así que no juzgo así. Es una comida para llevar y sirve comida razonable para llevar.

We stopped and ordered around 6pm, we had to wait for about 25 minutes for our food but it was worth it. We asked about gluten free food and the language barrier stopped us from understanding or knowing what they did. The food that we had was lovely

I was a little apprehensive after reading some reviews. However I was pleasantly surprised as everything was fine. Basically people who post reviews usually have an axe to grind. I would encourage anyone visiting Blaeneu Ffestiniog and fancying a Chinese takeaway to give them a try.

Maybe we were unlucky with our choices, but 2/3 of what we ordered was revolting. Sweet & Sour chicken was gloopy, gelatinous and weird tasting, crispy chilli beef wasn't crispy, chilli flavoured and it didn't taste much like beef either.It not often I throw food away, but I did with our take away from here.... sorry, but just very unpleasant.

We use golden mountain quite a lot as our nearest Chinese takeaway. Very rarely do they disappoint. Dishes are very flavoursome, and there's a great range on offer which all have their own distinctive flavours (so often find many dishes taste much the Same at other places).Aleays generous portions and friendly staff. Sometimes have to wait a bit, but it's usually worth it. It is beginning to look a bit shabby but don't let that put you off. We tend not to appreciate it as it's our 'local' but quite often realise just how good the food is after visiting other establishments when we're away etc.

Got a takeway here New Year's Eve. Usually it is pretty decent but this time it was really poor. The main problem though was the attitude of the owners when I went back to complain. I was made to feel like I was in the wrong. If they think that providing the wrong food and undercooking the chicken is fine then that it poor in my opinion. Had they admitted their mistake then I can accept that but to argue with customers in front of other customers isn't on.I shall not be going there again and I'd suggest getting something from the chippy, kebab or Indian if you are going to having a takeaway in Blaenau or even having something cooked for you from the Meirion.

Popped in one night after reading Trip Advisor reviews. I'll be honest, I wasn't hopeful but it was much, much better than I expected. Miles better than the Chinese takeaways in my area of Birmingham. The meat was good quality, portion sizes were generous and full of flavour. I'd go back if it wasn't a four hour drive away...

We are stopping in a village a few miles out of town and decided to make the trek for a Chinese takeaway. Due to the recommendations on trip advisor, I decided to visit the golden mountain. In the words of Julia Roberts in pretty woman " big mistake, huge mistake".I was initially encouraged by the fact that it was quite busy. The fact that it was not cheaper than our Chinese restaurant at home was also a positive sign. However, having gotten home it all went a bit wrong. The duck was fine. The chicken Kung po was more of a Thai curry, this we could deal with. The sweet and sour chicken balls however were something else. They had to be sawed open as they were so burnt and once they were open the grease seeped out and the chicken was rock had. The omelette was dry and rolled around tinned mushrooms. The omelette also came with soggy chips and some half cooked peas underneath. Not sure if this is a Welsh variant but I doubt any Chinese person would have touched this food. And neither did we.I have never found a Chinese takeaway that I could not finish - and I have eaten a lot - but this one was just too much and certainly one to avoid!

The food was very good, portion size was good. We enjoyed the meal, which in my opinion was good value for money. The only reason I haven't rated this with a five was due to the waiting time after ordering. Having said that, it was very busy with orders received by phone. If possible I would recommend ordering by phone and picking up.

Sunshine Chinese Take Awaylocation-icon225 Caernarfon RoadChinese

We opted for a take away from here, a Birthday celebration. Opting for the set meal for three- This comes with appetisers, three fried rice and a choice of three main dishes. Crispy beef, chicken curry and special chowmein. As there was 4 of us we added chicken balls in batter and some salt and pepper chips- This was more than enough. All dishes piping hot and full of flavour!! Would highly recommend!!!

I know this will fall on deaf ears but we will never go there again .

If only I could give a zero rating. Tasteless overcooked and like others have said almost like food has been sitting all day and heated up. Salt and pepper chicken was rock hard- chow main and rice ( both specials) tasteless and god only knows what they cook the chips in and how old potatoes are. It has a 2 rating ( must have been a good day!) and genuinely the worst Chinese I’ve ever eaten
