About Golden Wheel
On Queen St in Louth, Golden Wheel is a Chinese takeaway that has been trading for around 30 years. The kitchen makes large sweet and sour chicken balls, and the sauce comes in a separate container alongside the rice. Boiled rice and chips are the sides ordered with them. Orders are walk-in, and food is ready at the time quoted when ordering. Groups of six to eight people can pre-order for collection.

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often single out generous portions, with huge sweet and sour chicken balls and plenty of good quality meat in the dishes as examples. Close behind is consistency. Several regulars say they have ordered hundreds of times over the years and never had an issue, and one notes the shop has been around about 30 years. Diners also describe the food as tasty, fresh and not greasy, and a few mention a clean shop and friendly, welcoming staff. Holidaymakers and newcomers report ordering for groups of six and eight and being pleased with the result. The complaints are specific. One longtime customer found the boiled rice wet and gloopy, compared it to microwave rice, and described a watery sweet and sour sauce and smaller portions than on earlier visits. Another, otherwise happy with the food, says the chips arrived cold and dried out like stale. Even so, reviewers keep returning to the same detail: orders ready when promised and hot on collection.

“We were holidaying near by and ordered a large order for 8 people. it is always a worry as to what the local takeaway is like, but this time there was no need to worry. It was ready on time and all of it tasted very nice. Good sized portions. Huge s&s chicken balls. Plenty of good quality meat in the dishes. A great end to our holiday in Louth.”

“Great takeaway. A group of six of us ordered takeaway from here on a Friday evening. We pre-ordered and collected in 30mins. The pricing, quality and portions were good. Couldnt fault this takeaway. Would try again.”
