Make your own opinion of your own experiences. Every time I’ve come to the Golden Monkey, I’ve always had great food and great customer service. I came during the lunch buffet because my daughter wanted Chinese food. I’m not big on buying large amounts of takeout as it gets costly but the portions are large. She had the lo mein, sesame chicken, and egg rolls. She loved it. I ordered chicken broccoli and wontons and rice to go. I love the food here. It’s always been good for me and tasty. The little restaurant is run by one man. He’s super nice and considerate. Always good to see him. If you’re a regular, he remembers you. Let’s end this review the same way I usually do.

We have been regular customers for years and have always enjoyed their dishes and fantastic service. However, after ordering for the first time in a few months, we noticed a significant decline in quality. It appears there has been a change in ownership—food containers are different, the sesame chicken tasted spoiled, and the egg rolls and wontons lacked any flavor. The duck sauce resembled jelly, and the fortune cookies were like chewing rubber. To top it all off, the chicken in the rice had an unappealing color. It's disappointing to see one of our favorite restaurants fall to this level, and we won't be returning.
Stopped in for the first time with my daughter. The man working was very kind and the food was great. I WAS going to get two entrees but he let me know it would have been too much food for just she and I so I decided on one entree and an appetizer. They were both very fresh and great tasting. Shes 2.5 and sometimes fussy with new food, she loved it. We had cheese puffs, rice and orange chicken. The nice man then dropped by my table with the second entree boxed up for me to take home- for free. I was so thankful. It was very kind and unexpected. I took a menue and plan on ordering takeout next time.
This is my favorite Chinese restaurant since moving to ramsey. I love the sesame chicken and cream cheese wantons. I'm not usually a big egg roll person, but my wife ordered me one last time, wow it was great. It had a lot of meat in it, instead of just a bunch of mushy stuff like a lot of places. For 3 adults we ordered 2 large entrees, 3 egg rolls and fried rice. All 3 were stuffed and we took home enough for 2 of us to have lunch the next day.

I placed my order and arrived six minutes later, only to find the store appeared closed. The open sign was off, the lights were out, and everything looked tidied up, even though the store was a bit disheveled. When I received my food, I was charged $2-4 more than what was listed online, depending on the size I got. In fact, what I ordered should have cost me $4 less. Despite the disappointing service, I still left a tip.
This place should be rated higher. Called in. Hopped in the car. Was there in about 5min and it was ready. Got home. Meal was hot. I got the orange chicken meal with fried rice and an egg roll Orange chicken was very good. Typical quality of meat with a fast Chinese place. Great flavor. Rice was solid. Above average but nothing crazy good. Egg roll was very good. Can’t complain one bit about any of it.
The food was well-seasoned and packed with flavor. We ordered the peppered beef and the orange chicken combo. The portion sizes were generous, and we should have considered sharing. The cream cheese wontons and egg rolls were absolutely delicious. The online ordering process was straightforward, and everything was ready for pickup at the scheduled time.
Amazing food! We had sesame chicken w/ white rice and cream cheese wontons. They are THE best wontons I've had, and I am crazy about finding good cream cheese wontons.

Sweet and sour chicken taste great but they increased their price from $7.95 to $9.95 and it now isn't worth it.
