New Golden Soup - San Gabriel

I was surprised about how delicious the dishes were because last time I didn't really like it. The price you can't find anywhere else.

RIPPED OFF and HOSTILE SERVICES! $36.95 for a Peking Duck is cheating and ripped off when they charged a roast duck for a Peking Duck price. Its duck was brown color and soft skins with bones which are NOT Peking Duck at all. The waiter was irate, hateful, despicable and toxic; he barked at me like a mad dog to tell him that I want a Peking Duck, NOT a Roast Duck. For safety's concern, I left and STRONGLY NOT recommend this place to anyone!

My sister and I decided to have lunch here on a Saturday afternoon in late September. There was a line of few people at 10:50am. At 11am. We got a table and tea right away. The menu has $8.50 daily lunch specials till 6pm which is a bargain. We picked several dishes-beef chow fun, beef brisket, fried fish, sweet sour pork, Mongolian beef. We first got our soup and bowl of rice. The dishes came one at a time within 15 min. Fun to see their servers with the carts of food service to different tables. My favorite dish was sweet sour pork and fried fish which was fried just right. The beef chow fun could have fried longer in the wok. The tendon was yummy too and taste better in soups. By 11:30, the place got more busy with people, great value for sure.

This is our family's go to for lunch in San Gabriel- amazing selection (and prices) for their lunch special and every time I've been here, it's been crazy busy with lines for people waiting to dine. It's authentic, greasy Chinese food in a slightly dingy but huge space. The best part is it's part of tv history for Bosch fans lol. I recognized it immediately as the restaurant scene Eleanor Wish infiltrated an illegal Chinese poker game! Just for that, I have no problem coming back!

All I can say is WOW! Originally went to Ji Rong across the street, but Ji Rong was out of Peking Duck. Golden Soup is directly across the street, so I called and asked if they had any Peking Duck available; luckily they did. Golden Soup's Peking Duck is delicious. The restaurant is nicely decorated in traditional Hutong style. Service was excellent. I have had Peking Duck at a few places in the valley, but this will now be my go to restaurant. I ordered the single dish meal and was happy to see the price was much less than other shops. Also ordered their Hot and Sour Soup. I highly recommend this place for Peking Duck. Don't miss out on this place.
