Quick info
About Golden Gate
On Broad St in Magherafelt, Golden Gate serves Chinese food for collection, with orders taken on a walk-in basis rather than by reservation. It opens Tuesday to Sunday and stays closed on Mondays, running evenings only. The format keeps things simple, a counter for ordering and no table service to arrange around. Anyone stopping by after work or later in the evening can expect the same walk-in setup throughout the week, with Sunday service extending the usual takeaway pattern beyond the weekday run.

“Food is great, no complaints there but this is 2024 and they don't accept card payments for either delivery or in person. Get with the times and get a card machine - your custom will go up.”

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers split on Golden Gate, and the sauces draw the most praise. One calls it the best Chinese curry sauce in town, and another found the gravy rich over a big portion of chicken fried rice with plenty of flavour. The salted chilli and garlic chicken is singled out as a favourite, and one reviewer credits the menu for sauces and dishes that other local Chinese takeaways don't do. The complaints are specific and recur. Chicken is described as tough and hard around the edges, and one reviewer says chicken slices in gravy seemed pulled from the fridge and warmed rather than fresh. Another could not eat the honey chilli chicken, describing a thin, clear sauce with chilli flakes and chicken that tasted strange. One says the food has been hit or miss since 2019, sometimes not cooked thoroughly, and now sticks to curried chips. One reports being charged for a duck Thai curry and receiving veg Thai curry. Another asked for extra hot and got it hot.
