Golden Village Restaurant

The food and service of this place is exceptional, not to mention the cheap price and the huge serving. I had the schezwan beef and fried rice while my gf picked the sesame chicken w/​rice. the beef was cooked to perfection, its tender and flavorful. also, the fried rice was a winner. my gf also enjoyed her food. definitely one of the best gastronomic experience I ever had.

It’s incredibly dangerous to live so close to Golden Village. It’s definitely a hole– a hole of deliciousness! I never thought to go in even though I’m a few blocks away but one day my boyfriend and I decided to go in. It’s not the nicest place, but you’re not there for the ambiance, you’re there for the food! I love the «pay-​per-​scoop» idea because you can pay for what you want. There’s a great selection, but not many veggie options unfortunately. Uhh, did someone mention that the portions are huge?! If you’re around the area, it’s definitely worth your time to pass by for a quick and cheap bite.

Yeah I am very confused how this places is receiving such high reviews. I was very excited to check this place out but extremely disappointed by how bland it was and how low quality it was.
It was honestly worse than Panda Express. The chicken was fatty and just hard to eat. I won’t be back.

I am blown away by Golden Village!
I was driving along Monaco the other day when the pastel pink exterior of this restaurant caught my eye. I initially thought it was a Middle Eastern restaurant because of the architecture, but quickly realized otherwise when I saw the sign proclaiming «Chinese Food: $ 1.69 per item.» As other reviewers have said, it’s not the most freshly painted establishment, but even so, I was coming home from work tonight and thought, what the heck? I’m hungry and I want Chinese, so I’ll try it.
There was no line when I got there, and I was immediately greeted and served by a friendly, smiling employee. I’m pretty sure you can eat in the restaurant, but I elected to take my chicken lo mein + beef and broccoli to go. It was fresh, hot, and under $ 4 for a generous portion of both items. Golden Village is perfect for when you don’t feel like cooking but don’t want to spend a ton of money. I will definitely be back!

Can’t believe you get so much for so little. Hopefully they don’t paint this place so they can keep the prices low

I was a little skeptical at first, but once I read the other reviews I knew I had to try it. Sure the building may not be in the best condition, but get past the door and you’re good to go! The food that I chose was schezwan beef, steamed rice, teriyaki chicken, and wontons with sweet & sour sauce. My total was $ 8.00 for all this food! What?! That’s insane. I figured for that cheap, it’s couldn’t taste all that great. Well I was wrong; everything was phenomenal! I’ll definitely be back here seeing as how other Chinese restaurants charge an overrated amount of money for much smaller portions. Also, the family running the place was so nice, they knew most of the customers by name when I was waiting in line. That’s always a plus!

Why is it that the dollar scoop concept seems not to have spread outside of Colorado? Why would anybody not want to buy food, at a reasonable price, by the scoop? It blows my mind. I’ve been to as many dollar scoops as I possibly could over the last fifteen years. I’d like to think this gives me perspective. My visit to this The Golden Village was overwhelmingly positive. The food was not the single greatest dollar scoop experience of my life, but it was fresh, hot, tasty, and served with a smile. What more could a guy want out of a quick meal?

Don’t be fooled by the sketchy exterior of this place. Take it from me — it’s way better than it looks! We saw all the 5 star reviews and figured it would be worth a shot, so we stopped by. The building is decrepit and it looks like the place went out of business, but the inside is nicely decorated and is pretty clean! The food is VERY inexpensive and is served up front. I had the sesame chicken, fried rice, and wontons and was very pleased. Great Chinese food in big servings for a great price. Just get through the doors before you decide to turn away!

I was blown away that only three reviews have been written considering this place has been around since before 2001. They were the same then as they are now having made an annual visit or two. Consistency really is the definition of this joint. Same type of food offerings, even the same people. The server lady really is as nice as could be keeping small talk to a minimum and just getting you what you want and on your way.
They have egg foo young which seems hard to find sometimes (is that really a Chinese dish?) They also have beef strips on skewers and all the other usual suspects including Hot&Sour and Eggdrop soup. Are they perfect– naw– maybe better to hope for the best. I figure if they have passed DOH inspections for as many years maybe they are just doing it right– besides, seems cruel really to rate them any lower because of their consistency and serving up fairly good food all this time. They will get their demerits eventually but sheesh only four reviews now?

I saw this on Unilocal and thought it was too good to be true because of the good reviews. I mapped directions to this place and was disappointed at first because I couldn’t find it. But after a few minutes of driving around I found it (it’s a stand alone building right between the two shopping centers)! I got inside and asked them how much it was and they said $ 1.69 each item (some were 20 cents more, but who cares). I ordered my food and was surprised with the amount of food they gave! The food was good, but not excellent which was probably because they were closing soon and they weren’t that busy. Nonetheless, my two entrees and a side of rice was $ 5.90 and would definitely recommend this place to anyone! I would compare it to a Panda Express because the foods already cooked and you can sample items. The difference is that you get more food for less money :)

This place is awesome, cheap, hot food, cheap, good food and did I mention cheap? Got a dish, fried rice, and a drink. And with tax only paid $ 5.45. Love it!

Best dollar scoop. The food is better tham the other dollar scoop places. Used to live right across the street and came pretty regularly, now I moved to illiff and 225 and even though there are closer dollar scoop places I choose to come to this one. Introduced my boyfriend to it and he got hooked. Only downsize is they are closed on sundays.
