About Golden Dragon Restaurant

Located at 126 Alps Rd, Athens, GA 30606, Golden Dragon Restaurant operates as a chinese restaurant serving Athens in Georgia. This page gathers the practical details people usually look for before visiting: where it is, how to reach it, when it opens and how customers rate it.

In cities with a Chinatown, weekend mornings bring dim sum carts or order sheets, and lines form early at the most popular spots in Athens; walk-ins are standard and reservations are uncommon outside large banquet restaurants. Regional labels matter: Cantonese, Sichuan, Hunan, Shanghainese and Taiwanese kitchens cook very differently, so a restaurant's stated region is a better guide to the food than the word "Chinese" alone. Some smaller restaurants in Georgia are BYOB with no corkage fee; call ahead to confirm. A tip of 15-20% is customary for table service but not expected at counter-order takeout. Spice level, MSG and allergen questions are normal to ask before ordering, and most kitchens are happy to leave an ingredient out or tone down the heat if you mention it when ordering rather than after the food arrives.

Hours are published for 6 days a week. Typical hours are 11 am–9:30 pm. Note that it does not open on Tuesday. Hours in the United States do change around federal holidays and long weekends, so a quick call before a special trip is sensible. You can reach Golden Dragon Restaurant at (706) 552-1688; calling is usually the quickest way to ask about availability, prices or directions. More information is available on its website, athensgoldendragon.com.

Its Google rating is 4.0 out of 5 from 324 reviews, a solid but mixed picture; reading the most recent reviews will tell you what to expect.

Athens is in Georgia, in the Southeast, where summers are long, hot and humid, winters are mild, and afternoon thunderstorms and the hurricane season from June to November can change plans at short notice. Traffic in Athens peaks on weekday mornings and afternoons, so allow extra time then. Addresses read from the street number up to the city, state abbreviation and five-digit ZIP code; the map link on this page shows the exact spot.

This has got to be the worst chinese place I have been, yet. Went in expecting a buffet to find out it's only from like 11am-2pm. Ordered wontons that had NO filling in them. The chicken was bland, beef was bland, noodles were horrid. The service was kind. That was the only upside. Definitely not coming back. Wasted $45 on food I didn't even eat.

I wish I could give this place less than one star. Me and my boyfriend went in today for lunch and payed a total of $30 for the buffet. The apetizers/ sides were mid and the hot and sour soup tasted spoilt I couldn’t eat more than the first spoon. The fried chicken was fatty and oily. The egg roll was oily and barely had egg. The only sides that were decent were the crab Rangoon and potsticker. The mains were decent, the fried rice and pepper chicken were good, everything else like the Peking chicken and sweet and sour chicken were okay. The worst part of this experience was the lo mein. Genuinely smelled liked death and the smell of it ruined both of our appetites. It smelled spoilt and tasted weird. I couldn’t eat anything after that so we tried the desserts. They were okay - the small cakes were nice and the jello and pudding were fine. The sugar donut was yummy. The staff seemed friendly and efficient but the food was not only disappointing it also made us sick. After paying and leaving the place i immediately felt dizzy and threw up. During our meal i kept feeling nauseous due to the smell of the lo mein. My boyfriend felt dizzy and we both felt light headed and nauseous for 2

Man, this place has fallen pretty hard. The only reason I come here is because the food is somewhat consistent. But prices have jumped so high and the old dinner combos are sort of nonexistent, as they explained to me. Not really worth the money on a regular basis. I was going to give this place 3 stars but they lost TWO because I ordered takeout and come in to see the lady at the counter playing with the trashcan lid … didn’t wash or sanitize … coughing everywhere without covering her mouth … and clearly having zero regard for customers right near the counter. I get it, some people have to work when they’re sick. But cover your mouth and use hand sanitizer. The bare minimum. I guess come here if you want to get sick? That’s my review. Long time customer, last time coming. Hope these egg rolls are good.

The food is delicious and the buffet is reasonably priced. The staff clears your dishes quickly; and make sure to bring you more drink, without you having to ask. If you are looking for good Chinese food at reasonable prices; we definitely recommend Golden Dragon at Alps Road in Athens, Georgia.
