Golden Peacock

We spent $48 (without tip) for take out of honey walnut prawns and sesame chicken and it was so bad we threw it away. The rice tasted like instant rice (the kind that comes in a box dehydrated and you rehydrate in 60 seconds in the microwave). It was laughably bad-the chicken tasted like frozen chicken strips that were thawed and deep fried. The shrimp was chewy and had some scary Mayo-based thick coating on it. I honestly I think this restaurant is a cover for underground gambling, prostitution, money laundering or drug smuggling. They let people smoke inside (no denying the smell), and it's dirty. It looks like the carpets haven't been replaced since 1972 in a bad way. Stop by for a laugh, but don't order anything but a bottled beer.

This place is our go to restaurant for authentic Chinese food! The fried garlic chicken appetizer is very delicious. We tried the tofu dish and it was really good too!The staff are great and treat you like extended family!

Cheap Chinese food. It was 40$ before tip for all this food. Great deal as of March 2023 as far as dining goes. The combo meals seemed like such a good deal and omg so much food!Soup was really good. Liked the sweet and sour chicken. Fried rice was good. Chow mein was good but wasn't hot? Did not like the beef, still can't put my finger on it.It did not blow me away at all but it's great for the price. I feel like with some slight changes, this could easily be somewhere I regularly go to.Inside is cute. Has NO clue there was a bar in there and I wish I would have done a lap in there because it looked like it was poppin in there. I had no idea Fairwood's locals were congregating at the Chinese food bar. The service was insanely fast. Got seated instantly and had tea and water a minute later. Food came out fast, maybe too fast! Our server was really sweet and funny.

Absolutely delighted with my dining experience at Golden Peacock! The ambiance was elegant, the service impeccable, and the diverse menu offered a delightful culinary journey. Each dish was a masterpiece, bursting with flavors and beautifully presented. A truly five-star dining destination that exceeded all expectations. Can't wait to return for another memorable meal!

No. This experience I had was very bad. Ordered delivery, and the dripping bag and cartons with the orange sauce poured into a to-go box, dripping out the bag, set the scene.Prices charged are different than online. Ordered a family meal. Shrimp was missing, substituted by a mystery fish - squid? - but tasted so badly, we couldn't tell. Pork fried rice tasted stale but was the best tasting item we had.$9.50 for a sliver of old, freezer burned pie.Vegetables with beef were ok, really small pieces of beef.Chicken and vegetables dish was basically chopped celery with a couple tiny chunks of carrot and about 1/4 of a chicken wing sliced up.Orange chicken tasted old. The sauce was ok.The eggrolls were double breaded. The cabbage had turned inside. Tasted awful.Stale fortune cookies rounded it out.

The absolute worst $50 I've ever spent. Processed chicken and the almond gravy was orange. The sweet and sour pork was hard as bricks. Literally. The sweet and sour sauce tasted like thickened apple cider vinegar. Even the pork was the wrong color. It was grey and all the edges were cut off. Hmmm. Wonder why? Sadly my quest for GOOD Chinese food grows longer. As well as the list of places I will never eat again. Boo.

I love this restaurant (always do Takeout), BUT I always develop ringing in the ears (Tinnitus)for days after eating their food. I have to take Oral Chelation capsules with Mineral Drops to make it stop. This never happens with OTHER Asian restaurants. Heavy metal toxicity can cause Tinnitus. It's so loud I can barely sleep -- indicating HIGH toxicity. MERCURY is a heavy toxic metal that can cause Tinnitus. It is found in poorly sourced fish products. I don't even order fish dishes, but they must be cooked in a wok that has cooked highly toxic mercury-containing fish which left a residue on the cookware, which contaminates the non-fish dishes. I wonder what would happen if I ever DID order a fish dish OR one containing cheap mercury-containing fish sauce?They seriously need to look at where they're getting their cheap, toxic high mercury level fish products, and stop being greedy and buy safe fish products!Such a SHAME, bc their cooks are great. I just can't eat their food again.Google mercury in cheap, poorly sourced fish and TINNITUS. Mercury ACCUMULATES in the body and causes multiple types of damage to the body ... not JUST Tinnitus.

Food flavor was so bomb you literally do not have to add anything to it. No sauces, no salt and pepper etc. it was good the way that it was we ordered a Mongolian beef which had a lot of big pieces of meat. They did not skimp out like other restaurants do, and did not try to overwhelm it with onions or noodles. We also ordered the deep-fried prawns, which were perfectly crispy and large. We ordered two fried rice one without egg and one with egg and both were really good. I did add sweet-and-sour sauce not that it needed it. I just wanted to be extra. The only thing I will have to be honest I did not like was the cauliflower chicken. None of us did so we wasted it, but will definitely be back again and get all the other items.Me and my family had a great time here we truly felt like family. I love how they make you feel like that. I have a blended family. There was five of us three of them being kids. They did really well with the kids and did not make me feel bad for the mess that was made They made it seem as if it was fine which is always a great feeling.At the end, they provided us with some nice steam towels on a nice tray and we love the feeling of being clean after eating such a hearty meal. They also gave us fortune cookies with it that the kids also lived. Oh, how dare I forget, but the tea was the best we ever had literally all of us loved it, and we had two pots.

We at here when we first moved into Fairwood area between 10 and 15 years ago. Big mistake. No flavor, the fried rice was burned...just an overall bad experience.Today I was Jonesing for some hot and sour soup, but our go to restaurant had been slippingOn their soup...still okay but not "gotta have it" great.So we thought let's give Golden Peacock a shot. It's been years maybe it's improved.Nope. $15 for a container of pale, vinegar broth like soup.

We attended a 93rd birthday party. Old school dishes was served family style. Great memories of the classic sweet and sour chicken and pork fried rice. Food did not disappoint. It was a great trip down memory lane. This place is a gem in the neighborhood.
