Restaurant, Chinese restaurant
Golden Restaurant, a cherished establishment in Fresno's Tower District, has been delighting diners for over 50 years. Offering a range of Chinese dishes, this affordable gem is known for friendly, prompt service and hearty portions. While the interior may show signs of age, the flavors shine through, particularly in the pork combination plate and the much-praised broccoli beef. Vegetarian options are available, though some may find them a bit oily. Overall, it’s a nostalgic stop for comfort food with a touch of local history.

The sign that says ‘we don’t cook with lard or animal fat’ is the only good news for vegetarians at this restaurant. The king pai tofu was extremely oily with a few vegetables that were barely there. It also ran a little sweet. I did not dare eat the crackling rice soup since I was not really convinced it wax made with vegetable broth. My husband loved his duck though .
Entrees are hearty.Very reasonable prices.Service was quick and friendly.I ordered the Special Combo plate w broccoli beef.The sauce on the broccoli beef was really good.The rest was OK.I just happened to glance (!) over at another table eating the Chinese chicken salad, and it was enough to feed an army! Looked 👍.
The Golden is a landmark Chinese restaurant in the heart of Fresno’s Tower District, celebrating 50 years in 2017.I highly recommend the pork combination plate. Delicious and the price is still surprisingly reasonable. Highly recommend for a taste of old Fresno.
