Golden Dragon

From the moment you arrive at Golden Dragon, you know it’s going to be an experience. This old-school Chinese restaurant is as opulent as it gets: the dining room is filled with crystal chandeliers, ornately carved wood furniture, and tiny fu dogs at the entrance warding away any negative energy. The focus here is on Cantonese food, specifically dim sum, with dishes like juicy xiao long bao, steamed cheung fun noodles, and coconut purple rice cake for dessert. Dress up or don’t bother coming.
