Golden Dragon Chinese Buffet

Awful worse I ever seen. I too wish there were a place to do no stars. Small selection, what is out is not even of minimal quality even for a Chinese buffet. Cleanliness is not a place I would even let my dog walk around in. Not a place I recommend at all. You will regret it.

Regarding the Golden Dragon in Covington, Louisiana –
We used to be regulars. But no more! The restaurant has increasing gone down fast! On recent visits, we found the Golden Dragon in Covington to be poorly managed, with no regard to customer satisfaction or the simplest of common courtesy one would expect when dining out. In particular, there is a younger woman with glasses who is quite disrespectful, and has no idea how to treat customers or the personality to do so. The restaurant is dirty with mold and grime on the tables, chairs, walls and floors. I would hate to see the non-​public areas. The workers never wear hair nets or gloves, and violate so many public safety and health mandates. They really should be investigated. The self-​serve ice cream bar is a total mess with no attention to it’s upkeep or cleanliness. The owners allow their young boy to disrupt patrons and play in the food and at occupied tables. Even as regulars, in recent times, our requests were often ignored and we were treated rudely. We know many who no longer will eat there for many of the same reasons. The place rarely has more than a handful of people even at the peak of dinner. On a recent dinner evening, we were the only patrons there. How sad to see a once great restaurant that was always crowded go down in quality at every level. One would think the owners would be taking note of this decline and be doing something to correct the many problems. Surely their cash flow and tips have declined as a result of their negligence and decline in standards. There are many other restaurants with better food, better service, and a better dining experience. The owners and workers of Golden Dragon in Covington don’t deserve our business anymore. Surely they can’t stay in business long if this decline continues to be allowed.

NO STARS– MOLD! There was mold on the high chairs– all of them and they were covered in it. The cups they brought had filth in them. Do not go there. We used to be regulars and put up with a little yucky-​ness but this is just awful.

Ate here for lunch yesterday. Food was not warm-​much less hot. Wait staff not friendly. Would not go back.

This place is not good at all. Don’t waste your money. Some of the food is just okay. Much of the food is just not good. Service is really slow. Would definitely not go back.

There is certainly no abundance of Chinese buffets in the Covington area. I was pleased to find this little place amidst some shops in Covington. The food was delicious. The service was a little slow with drinks but they were very friendly. I am going to be returning to this buffet on a regular basis. :)

I wanted to leave NO stars, mainly because I have nothing positive to say about this place. The food isn’t good, not even so-​so. The chicken had a strange color to it & I question what it really was…

Disappointing. The buffet doesn’t have much to offer, and the food really wasn’t that good. When I asked for white rice as part of my to go order, the staff seemed baffled. Apparently they don’t normally offer it? After a long wait, they brought me a container from the back… but then had no idea how to charge me for it. I ended up paying $ 4.29 a pound for a container of rice that would have cost 75 cents anywhere else. Won’t be back anytime soon — there are definitely better chinese restaurants in this town.
