Make sure to come here for authentic Chinese cuisine, the best in Gainesville. When you first open the menu, there is a specials section, and that is where the authentic stuff is. Make sure to try to the 5 Spice Roast Duck, Yo Choy (aka Gai Lan or Chinese Brocolli), and their Beef Chow Fun. Always fresh and always tasty! less

Ok, here comes another excellent review by Trent! I've always gone to this place whenever my tastebuds are in the mood for chinese food. The whole atmosphere is beautiful to behold! It's the only place I go to enjoy excellent food. From start to finish, the service is unbelievable! I love those crispy crunchies with the S-n-S sauce or mustard sauce that they serve WAY before the meals arrive. And they replace them w/o a complaintive smirk. The tea is served (part of the dinner) before the meals arrive (small tea cups...so cute!). And get this... these appetizers don't fill you up before the dinner! I love that part!
Once the dinner arrives, you notice how GREAT a portion you get (Make sure you choose the 2 or 3 choice FAMILY Dinners!). By ordering from the section labeled (FAMILY DINNERS), you get to choose 2 to 3 different foods as one order. They come out with 2 to 3 LARGE bowls, enough to feed 4 to 6 people! Each bowl, a different entree. You get to taste everyone's food this way. GREAT IDEA GOLDEN LIGHTS!
