RESTAURANT REVIEW – Golden Taste Chinese Restaurant, Toms River, NJ

We'd love it if you shared it!

This past week we decided to get some Chinese takeout. I had errands to run so I decided to pick my order up. When I phoned in the order I was told it would be ready for pickup in 20-25 minutes.  I arrived in just under 25 minutes. The folks behind the counter were just bagging up my order. They confirmed who I was and my order. They gave me a really cute bag with a happy face on it and I headed home.

Most of the food was in reusable containers, with the exception of the egg rolls which were in a small bag.

I’d ordered a dinner special of pork egg foo young and pork fried rice ($7.75). The dinner came with two omelettes on a nice sized bed of the fried rice. I liked that the gravy came in its own separate container. The egg foo young was tasty and tender. The rice was tender but a bit on the bland side.

Hubby had ordered a side of 8 fried dumplings ($5.25) and a dinner special of pork lo mein and pork fried rice ($7.95). The fried dumplings were very moist, tender and tasty. I didn’t get a chance to get a photo of his meal. He said that the pork lo mein was excellent. He also found the fried rice to be a bit bland.

The Golden Taste Chinese Restaurant is located at 600 Fischer Blvd, Toms River, NJ. I found the menu variety, portion sizes and pricing to be in line with other Chinese restaurants in our area. The restaurant was clean and the folks were nice and I would stop in again in the future.
