Golden Chopsticks

I have been a vegetarian for 40 years. I live in Wheeling West Virginia and I also live in Los Angeles California. I can tell you that their meals are tasty and a huge portion is served to you. We have been trying their vegetarian entrées, my friends and I for many years. I can tell you from living in Los Angeles and eating tasty meals that this is a tasty meal.
A definite yes!!! Go there and you might want to split the dinner it’s so huge.

Took my Mom here for her birthday dinner. Not impressed. The whole set up is weird. Needs to be redesigned, redecorated, and deep cleaned. Could also use better lighting in a dark section of the restaurant. Food was ok. Service was ok. Nothing great or even really good. I remember it being better.

Okay, I’m not a Chinese food fan. Some friends of mine who have been here before raved on this place and on a recent visit, took me and my husband to lunch there. I ordered the Hong Kong steak and the brussel sprout appetizer. My husband had the seafood udon. He was very pleased. My food was very good as well. Remember, I’m not a fan, but I can say it was definitely a far cry from the average chinese take out. The brussell sprouts were alright. I wasn’t crazy about the sauce but it wasn’t bad. Service was great! The waitress remembered my friend and that she had ordered one of the same items on her last visit there! I did especially enjoy the fried rice as it reminded me of the rice I used to get in chicago.

I’ve had good Chinese food before. I read some of the reviews on here, and my boyfriend and I thought we’d try it out. BAD IDEA. The fried rice is just white rice with soy sauce. I can do that myself at home. The egg rolls were soaked in grease, and I couldn’t even finish my meal because I started to feel sick. I thought general tso’s chicken was pretty standard, but eating here made me sick. And the won tons were so hard they cut the roof of my mouth. Also, the guy in the phone got my order wrong and what normally costs us like $ 25 came out to $ 44 because they gave us an extra meal! And I verified what I ordered with the guy 3 times over the phone very loudly, and it was still wrong! Will not be going back!

Great customer service, great food.
I couldn’t find a menu online so i called to ask where i could find one. Apparently they have one on their Facebook page but i didn’t have to hang up and call back because he gave me some recommendations that sounded great!
They have a 20 $ minimum order for deliveries. I was told my order would arrive in an hour, 30 min later there was a knock at my door. Love when that happens.
I ordered chicken fried rice and garlic chicken. This was plenty to feed two people. The chicken in both meals was great! White meat with no trace of chewy fat! The veggies and sauce were really good in the garlic chicken. They included two plates, two sets of silverware, four fortune cookies, soy sauce, sweet and sour, other stuff, and extra rice.
Go for it

On our way home to Pittsburgh, I decided to take a break from the usual long car ride options of McDonald’s and Subway. I looked for Asian food options off the highway and found Golden Chopsticks on Unilocal.
This place is a bit odd. I can’t put my finger on it — but it’s just odd. The entryway is cluttered and dirty. Stuff I didn’t notice until my way out of the restaurant. But tablecloths and junk stacked up in the middle of the entryway is not inviting. It’s like they ran out of storage in this ENORMOUS restaurant!
At first, we were seated in a booth next to a door that is ominously marked «VIDEO GAMING ROOM — MUST BE 21 TO ENTER.» There is cigarette smoke wafting through the door and got worse everytime someone left or entered. We moved to a side room with tables to get away from the smoke for my kids.
Service was attentive enough — but just awkward. Our waiter was pleasant but just disconnected from service. We just wanted to get back on the road and ordered 3 things:
— Moo Shu Pork — standard fare. Pancakes were a little stale and they kept falling apart. Plenty of pork. Good plum sauce.
— Moo Shu Vegetables — same filling sans pork.
— Fried Dumplings
Everything tasted just fine and the value was OK. Lacking atmosphere and personality and a deep clean. Probably won’t be back when I come and go through here to visit family in Illinois.

The best Asian food in the Valley, hands down. Much closer to fine dining then the typical strip mall Chinese fare. Everything is always well-​seasoned and fresh, the service is friendly, and the prices are reasonable. Highly recommend.

Everything I’ve ever gotten here was delicious. I usually order the tofu with eggplant (especially when they have the oriental eggplant available) and it’s so good! And that’s coming from someone who’s not even a vegetarian! Their egg rolls are fantastic, too. Plus, the owner is a good guy which makes us more than happy to spend money here. :)

Really good for wheeling, is a little pricey for the area but you do get good food. I don’t eat Brussels but we they’d the fried with ginger sauce and wow. I have been all over the world and ate in some real sh** holes and this is not one of them. When I am havering a bad day I go here.

I have eaten here at least 100 times and the food is consistently delicious, served hot and tasty. The hot and sour soup is so good my mouth is watering just thinking about it. In fact, I think I’ll have to send my husband out for some Golden Chopsticks right now. Orange beef, egg rolls and green beans with garlic sauce.
The service is always courteous. The atmosphere is comfortable. And, host Martin Tsu is always welcoming and charming.

I usually go to China Wok (best Chinese in the area hands down) in Elm Grove but wanted to get takeout closer to my house so I ordered from here. I have to say I am not a big fan of this place. I ordered takeout and whoever took my order over the phone was very rude and was even ruder when I called back a second later to change something on my order. Upon arriving home my food was lukewarm at best. I ordered sesame chicken and was not impressed. It was very thin, chewy strips of chicken instead of pieces of chicken. The batter was really crunchy instead of soft and fluffy and had a burnt taste to it. The lo mein had practically no flavor. It wasn’t terrible Chinese food but I wouldn’t eat here again or recommend it to anyone.

Nice décor… clean. Use front door… food was very good as was atmosphere…

It’s okay. The restaurant is nice and the staff is always friendly, but the food is typical of many Chinese restaurants (so so). I would say that it’s middle-​of-​the-​road as far as Chinese food in Wheeling goes (not the best, but not the worst either).

When I moved to the Wheeling area I was very eager to find a good Chinese restaurant. Everyone recommended Golden Chopsticks. I have been there 3 times and had take out once. I have only ever been disappointed with the takeout (hence the 4 stars instead of 5). The General Tso’s chicken, lo mein, and mongolian beef are all very tasty, but my favorite dish is the Thai Sweet Chili Chicken which they generally have as a special on the weekends but isn’t on the menu. The chicken is crispy on the outside and tender and juicy on the inside. If you have room at the end of the meal, try a piece of the deep fried cheesecake. You won’t be disappointed.
My problem with the takeout is that they charge you the same price as if you were eating in the restaurant, but you get significantly less food. It feels like a bit of a rip off after eating in the restaurant and becoming accustomed to their large portions.
The owner is very friendly. He is willing to do whatever is necessary for you to enjoy your meal and see you return as a repeat customer.

The food was delicious!!! The owner and the waitress were very nice and friendly. I ordered chicken eggplants, angle squash with shrimp, and fried squid Hongkong Style. Angle squash was growing in their backyard. I would definitely come back here again.

I went to this S**t hole after reading the reviews on here. The place smells like cigarettes.
Just because this is the only thing going in Wheeling doesn’t mean it’s the «BEST» thing out there. Sorry but I am NEVER going back to a place where you cant tell the difference between pork, chicken or beef
I am sorry but based on the service we had last night I think this place is two thumbs down. We went for the second time to give it a 2^nd shot but the food was awful. I can’t blame the service… waiter was nice. Never going back again.

Great chinese restaurant. Everytime I come home from college on a break, I always try and stop at Golden Chopsticks. The food is excellent and the price isn’t too bad at all. This is a great place to go if you are looking for an authentic chinese dinner in the Wheeling, WV area

I haven’t had much of a craving for Chinese in many months, but that changed when I visited home recently. A friend and I decided to try the Golden Chopsticks after not having been there in a decade, and it’s still as good — even better — than we remembered.
We started off with the vegetable dumplings. The six dumplings came in a steel steam pot and were packed with veggies. I didn’t care for the sauce that was served with them, so I just used my old standby, the orange sauce already on the table. Even without sauce, though, the dumplings were tasty.
Next, we had spring rolls. My friend had a regular one, while I had the vegetarian version. Again, these were stuffed and had a perfect crust — flaky and fried without being break-​your-​teeth hard. I used my orange sauce again, while my friend used the accompanying sauce.
I have to say, I was so very pleased with the vegetarian entrees available at Golden Chopsticks. I don’t remember the restaurant having quite that many in the 90s, but I certainly appreciate it now! The variety available was good — string beans, mixed vegetables, broccoli, etc., all in a variety of sauces and stir fries (and with rice or as noodles). I opted for the dish of mushrooms, which wasn’t billed as being spicy. I asked our server if the kitchen could use the hot garlic sauce available for some of the other dishes, and he was happy to request it. My huge plate of mushrooms came back with a delicious sauce that had some serious kick.
My friend ordered General Tso’s, and he was very pleased with it. Both of our entrees came with plenty of steamed rice and, eventually, fortune cookies.
Golden Chopsticks is smokefree and is a «white tablecloth» environment. Well, it has white tablecloths and certainly is a very nice restaurant, especially for Wheeling, but it’s not snooty about it. You don’t have to wear a tie or skirt or whatever.
The entire staff is really friendly and quick. Our water glasses were filled often, and our server was helpful and personable. I know I’ll visit Golden Chopsticks again during my next visit to the family.

Very good restaurant. I highly reccomend the Hot and Sour soup. One of the better chinese food restaurants I have at at in a long time.

Golden Chopsticks is a great Chinese restaurant for the Wheeling area and in general. I give them 4 and a half stars to 5 stars overall.
As a vegetarian, Golden Chopsticks is wonderful to visit because they are very accommodating. A separate vegetarian menu is available upon request and the servers are incredibly professional, knowledgeable about their food, and responsive. Items can also be requested that are not on the menu. A good friend of mine whom I catch lunch with now and again knows the owner well and he usually asks what vegetable has come in that is best and we get a meal made around that, adding the protein and sauce of choice.
Concerning the food, I find that meals are consistently good, prepared the same way, fresh, and delicious. If there is one item that no one should miss, it would be the appetizer of scallion pancakes. Their menu has a considerable amount of options and they have fairly priced lunch specials include a choice of appetizer items. Hot tea comes free at lunch and dinner. On site they also have a bar and a gaming room with slot machines if that is your cup of tea.
For those non-​vegetarians, I have taken parents and many non-​veg friends to Golden Chopsticks which have resulted in happy compliments. Additionally, I had my wedding rehearsal dinner at Golden Chopsticks which went off splendidly. I started communicating with the owner a month in advance for reservations and planning and he and his staff were very nice, helpful, and accommodating to the dietary needs of our various family members and friends. They even have a flat screen TV and DVD player for an extra cost to play our photo slide show.
