About Golden Bowl
On Hallhill Rd in Glasgow, Golden Bowl is a Chinese takeaway serving under new ownership after taking over from the previous business of the same name. The menu runs through beef curry, chicken curry, and Singapore chow mein, with fried rice alongside and Chinese dishes served with chips. Orders are placed over the phone or at the front counter, and the kitchen handles both collection and delivery, with drivers covering orders beyond the counter. It opens daily, evenings only, and operates on a walk-in basis rather than table reservations.

“I grew up with this place since I was 8 till now at 36. They have sold over from the old golden bowl but it’s nice to see a familiar face still with Maureen still being there. Unfortunately though I will never be back in on a Saturday night or any night the black/chinese English man is on the desk taking orders. His arrogant demeanour and passive aggressive attitude not once but twice to me and my mother. I swore the first time if he speaks to me in that manner again I will walk out and withhold service. That I did. I eat out here almost 3x a week and so does my mother. The girl who usually works the desk is an asset and knows what she’s doing. You’re dammed if I will be disrespected for some fried rice! There’s plenty more takeaways.”

“Place is spotless every time I’m there liv is always welcoming and you will be delighted with the food and it is delish!”

Customer Review Summary
The complaints are mixed and specific. Two reviewers say dishes arrived too spicy to eat, a beef curry and a Singapore chow mein. One of them returned for a second beef curry and describes cremated chips and curry sauce like jelly, then says the refund they asked for was not given in full. Another says the place has declined since a change of ownership and recommends going elsewhere. One longtime customer describes a passive aggressive manner from a man taking orders at the desk, twice, and says they walked out and withheld their order, while noting the girl who usually works the desk is an asset.
