Reviews Overview
Most Liked
Golden Dragon shines brightly in several areas that diners love. The generous portion sizes often leave customers pleasantly surprised—they all rave about the colossal servings, especially of chips and rice. Menu highlights include the Duck in Orange Sauce and Special Fried Rice, which people frequently recommend. The friendly staff also deserve mention for their warm service and propensity to offer free bowls of soup—always a delightful surprise. Reviews frequently praise the crispy batter on fish and chips, reinforcing its reputation as the best chippy in Widnes. These consistent quality experiences ensure that many patrons return again and again.
Most Disliked
While Golden Dragon garners mostly positive reviews, there are a few points of criticism from diners. The delivery time can be a tad longer than expected, especially during peak hours; customers have expressed frustration with waits of up to an hour. This could be an inconvenience for those hungry for a quick meal. Additionally, some patrons wish there were more options on the English menu, such as a wider variety of traditional fish and chips. Of course, parking limitations can be a slight hassle at busy times, despite being free of charge. These minor issues do not overshadow the many strengths of this beloved takeaway, but they are worth noting for potential visitors.

Tried a takeaway from here having received a leaflet through the door. Excellent quality food. Duck in orange is a restaurant favourite of mine, and this was every bit as good as restaurant quality. Large portion of chips was absolutely huge. Two free bowls of soup thrown in (not literally!) too. Delivery took a while (an hour), but that small frustration was well worth it, especially as it was delivered by a very courteous and polite person, with an apology for the delay. Highly recommended for quality, portion sizes and value.

The food was gorgeous! We hadn't been to this Chinese for over a year and it's definitely much nicer than we remembered. Customer service was amazing, the ladies were so lovely and also gave us some freebies. Will definitely order again! Yum!

One of, if not the best Chinese in Widnes. The curry sauce is the nicest I've had since moving to Widnes. Always have a chat when ordering and everyone very nice and friendly behind the counter
