Customer Review Summary

Reviewers most often praise the hot, generous Chinese food, with the chicken balls called the best one reviewer has tried. Close behind are the chicken curry and chips, described as plentiful with a nice taste, and noodles that come in big portions. Others mention the bbq sauce and food that is fresh and flavoursome, and a few say delivery arrived right on time. One fussy eater notes the kitchen will leave out mushrooms on request. The main complaint is cancelled delivery orders. Two reviewers waited a long while before an email said their order was cancelled, and on the phone were told first-time orders are not taken, which one says is not stated anywhere. One adds that the man on the phone did not apologise. Two other reviewers criticise the food itself, citing rubbery meat, clumpy reheated rice stuck to the container and a bland meal. Regulars describe a warm welcome at the counter, free spring rolls and homemade cakes with larger orders, and one received a full tin of Celebrations at Christmas.

    “I been going to golden ocean for a good few months it’s is now the only Chinese I like I am a fussy eater and they can cook your food without mushrooms if you ask which I feel is a very good thing. There chicken balls are the best I’ve tried there noodles comes in big portions all the food is so flavoursome The staff are so sweet and kind over the phone the delivery times is the fastest I’ve ever had they come within 20-30 mins and this year they gave me a full tin of celebrations for a Christmas present I think that is actually so sweet and thoughtful i will definitely be going golden ocean for the rest of my life and I’m only 23 so I’m glad I find my forever Chinese I also forgot they have the best bbq sauce”

    “Food disappointingly poor. Meat was rubbery and rice was stuck to the soggily floppy card container and in clumps too, more obviously reheated than most takeaways. Generally a little cheaper and a friendly counter lady, but the reception area is sparse and unfurnished, and overall I won't be returning,”
