Reviews for Golden City Restaurant in Victoria, British Columbia
YUM!!! This was the best dim sum I've had in a long time. Everything we ate was delicious and beautifully cooked and presented. The staff were attentive and service was very smooth. Shout out to the delightful young server who enthusiastically convinced us to try her favourite dish, the ... prawn and chives dumplings. Thankful that she encouraged us to order 2 plates of these. As she promised, they were delicious! Read more
TLDR: authentic, in terms of food and service. Good place for people having homesick lol The shrimp dumplings were a real treat. Each dumpling was expertly crafted with a thin, translucent wrapper that perfectly encased a succulent shrimp filling. The flavors were well-balanced, and the texture was spot-on. Simply delicious. Another standout ... dim sum item was the fried bean curd roll with shrimp. The rolls were crispy on the outside, revealing a piping hot and flavorful filling of tender shrimp. The combination of the crispy exterior and the juicy shrimp inside created a delightful contrast of textures. It was a dish that I couldn't resist ordering seconds of. Apart from the fantastic dim sum, the service at Golden City Restaurant was commendable. It was refreshing to dine in a Cantonese restaurant where the service was 100% authentic, as they didn't ask the usual generic questions like "How is the food?", which added to the overall authenticity of the experience. lol In conclusion, Golden City Restaurant exceeded my expectations with its superb dim sum offerings. The shrimp dumplings and fried bean curd roll with shrimp were outstanding in terms of taste and quality. The authentic service provided by the staff further enhanced the dining experience. If you're looking for a Cantonese restaurant that delivers excellent dim sum and genuine hospitality, Golden City Restaurant is a must-visit. Read more
The food was good quality but certainly not the best dim sum joint in town. I'd say this is a solid second place!! Make a reservation for busy hours as you can expect a wait time if you walk in. Fast service but definitely not friendly service. Good place for ... families with little ones and decent pricing for the amount you get. Read more
Came here for Dimsum, the food was very disappointing. Bbq pork buns were extremely dry, the fried dumplings with shrimp & pork were extremely soggy and under cooked, the bbq pork pastries were very dense and extremely cold as if it was made the day before and not even reheated. ... Pretty much all the food came less than warm or cold which was very surprising. Over all the food was a very big disappointment. It took an extremely long time for everything to come. Currently we have been sitting here for over an hour and a half and we are still waiting for part of our food and the restaurant is not even that busy anymore and we still have been continuing to wait. We’ve inquired 5 times and have barely had any service except for the water girl. The water girl pouring hot water in our teapot is doing an exceptional job, she had come around 8-10 times already and is very helpful, we asked for for extra napkins and she came right away. Apart from that the service here is horrible, the food is horrible and this is a disgrace towards Dimsum and Chinese restaurants. Most likely I will not be back if I had the choice. Update: we finally got one of the orders we had been waiting for (1 hour and 48 minutes) for noodles, it taste very poorly made. The noodles are so salty it taste like they dumped a whole salt shaker inside, it just taste like salt and crusty old noodles. I feel like they forgot our noodles, set them aside and re heat them. Very horrible tasting. I’ve never had something so bad. We continued to sit after our food was served and waited for other dishes for them to only disclose to us far later that they had sold out of the other foods we were waiting for. Very bad communication skills. The only good employee here is the girl that was pouring hot water/ the busser. Read more
Got the: lean pork congee, har gow, shu Mai, Xiao long bao, BBQ pork bao, and chicken feet. Came in at 9pm and no one greeted us, we had to find someone in the kitchen. But got seated right away and ordered quickly. The food, minus the shu Mai, came ... out quickly. Prices were a little higher than expected but the food was delicious. Very authentic and done well.
