Golden Bull Restaurant — top-tier chinese in Chinatown. Honest, uncompromised flavors throughout. The team can walk you through the menu. Quick and efficient, group-friendly. Gloria Ha: "It was quite salty, the jalapeno had a good crunch, and the egg tofu was so tender inside and crispy outside"

All the dishes were amazing and reminded me of what I had at home (I’m from Guangdong). If you want to taste authentic Cantonese food this is a good spot.

“Had a wonderful meal at this busy restaurant.”
Had a wonderful meal at this busy restaurant. We were lucky to land a table after a short wait for dinner. The portions were good and quality and amount of ingredients in each dish is plentiful. Everything tasted great. Service was brisk and friendly. Food served up fast. Ricr and tea included in the meal. Bathroom was clean and nice too! In terms of food, the fish maw seafood soup was filled with ingredients and had an authentic taste. The black pepper beef tenderloin was tender and juicy. The Clay pot seafood with tofu was also delicious. It had squid, dried squid, shrimp,and mushrooms. Fried octopus was tender and cooked perfectly. All in all, we had an enjoyable meal here.

“Had the best orange chicken of my life.”
Had the best orange chicken of my life. Their hot tea was a black tea but there was a natural sweetness to it that I really enjoyed. The broccoli beef was just ok but not bad at all. Portions at lunch are still HUGE. Will come again!

Really good! I went with my family (group of 7). We had a great experience. The food, the service was 10/10. The place is small, so can be noisy when everyone is talking at the same time. Besides that, I highly recommend. We will definitely return!

“Kind servers but when the restaurant is busy, service can be a little slow.”
Kind servers but when the restaurant is busy, service can be a little slow. Good for if you’re looking to take your time with your meal with friends or family. Highlights of the meal included the walnut shrimp and salt and pepper Japanese tofu. I highly recommend both of these. Also, the prices are very good, especially if you split the meal with a large group.

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Golden Bull Restaurant in Chinatown is absolutely phenomenal.”
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Golden Bull Restaurant in Chinatown is absolutely phenomenal! The customer service was excellent, and the food was out of this world. One dish you must try is the pork dumplings, they were packed with flavor and perfectly made. Everything we ordered was delicious, and we couldn’t be more pleased with the experience. This spot is a true gem in Chinatown, and I can’t wait to come back!

“Authentic Cantonese-style restaurant.”
Authentic Cantonese-style restaurant. Known for its Orange Chicken and seafood dishes 😋, I went solo to experience the orange chicken. I arrived around 5:30pm, and all the small tables were occupied. The only tables available seated 8. I was offered one of those tables. So now I look like my whole family abandoned me as I sat there alone, enjoying my tasty orange chicken. I felt kinda bad as larger groups were arriving and awaiting tables, so I quickly finished and left. I recommend making a dinner reservation, as this place gets packed after 6 pm.

“I stopped in for a quick meal and the orange chicken did not disappoint.”
I stopped in for a quick meal and the orange chicken did not disappoint. The pieces were coated perfectly and the citrus flavor really came through. The egg roll was just as good, fried to perfection and not too oily. Everything came out fast which I appreciated. The portions were generous and great for sharing. I am already planning to bring a friend next time.

“I saw a food review on this place and I was like, I have got to try the food.”
I saw a food review on this place and I was like, I have got to try the food. The service was amazing, they are very attentive and polite. The restaurant is a small but cozy setting, it can get loud at times, but there were customers lined at the door to dine here. Some had to be turned away till it cleared some. The Dungeness Crab and sticky rice and side of Bochoy was 💯💣🔥!! Hands down delicious 😋👌!! This was split between my friend and I and there were still leftovers.
