Great Dining Experience
My husband and I ate some of the best Chinese food there ever. The crab rangoons were to die for!    [06 Jan 2006 12:55:06]

Over 12 Years Eating Here
I read some reviews and was surprised by some of the unsatisfied customers. I have eating for over twelve years and never have a bad meal. They have adapted to trends seamlessly and their bar service is so great I insist on sitting at the bar first prior to going dinner even if a table is available right away.

The food is always fresh and never disappointing.    [20 Oct 2006 18:38:13]

Since Day One
We have been eating at The Golden Temple since the day it opened. The food has always been top notch. It is a bit pricey, but the service and ambiance make up for the extra cost.

Well worth the visit.    [14 Mar 2007 11:13:58]

Overpriced, All Show, Lousy Food
Don't go if you like quality Chinese food. This place is a farce. It looks like a fine restaurant but the food may as well come out of a corner take out. Who puts large shreds of carrots in a tasteless shou mai? A cheap chef, that's who. Hot and sour soup that is thick and sweet. Look at the drink menu before the rude waiter grabs it off your table. $9 for a bad Mai Tai and no dancing? Save your money, stay home and open a can of La Choy; it will be a much better experience.    [27 Mar 2007 10:20:21]

Not Worth the Price
The food was ok when I ate in (probably because I was drinking too), but when I ordered out I thought it was not nearly as good as I remembered it to be. Both the drinks and the food are overpriced, and my waiter ignored me for quite some time when I wanted another drink. And crab Rangoons, normally my favorite, have rice in the filling...not good at all! I'm surprised this place gets such good reviews.    [28 Aug 2007 20:03:30]
