Customer Reviews

I find it abusive that I was charged $4.45 for a single loaf of bread. As a consumer, I understand that prices may vary depending on different factors, such as the quality of ingredients, production costs, among others. However, I consider the price that I was charged for a single loaf of bread to be excessively high and not in line with the prices that are commonly seen in the market.

Blantly lied when she could have easily asked someone to help me I patiently waited as you attended to other patrons had no issues doing so but if I hear people in the back I'm going to politely inquire about assistance but to be told you're alone to then 2 mins later see not one but two people working after I stepped out is insulting

The ice blended caramel and vanilla lattes have got to be the best I have ever had. I am totally obsessed! In my opinion they surpass Starbucks by far! No questions about that! But then again the large iced coffee is just as good. It's always so hard to decide if I want ice blended coffee or just a regular iced coffee cause either one of them has me almost in tears when it's all gone! ??????

We local Rancho Dominguez teachers are forever thankfu to Sally and Golden Express Dounts for the donuts donated several days by . January 2019.

I have a soft spot for this place. Their food made fresh is very very good. But over the years ive come across some poor experiences. Like tonight for example; I walk in with a couple ahead of me. I overhear what they want (spicy chicken wings) but there is only 3 left. The customer asked for 6 more which would take 20 min. When it comes to my turn i planned to order 4 combos. I asked what time they close as google says 8pm but the woman said they clean by 740pm. I walked in around 540pm, which should be mo

The Chef is the best at cooking for the community. The donuts are always fresh and the food is sometimes served at low quantities. My advice is serve more food for customers are hungry and customers return bcs we got our moneys worth.

CHECK YOUR BAG BEFORE YOU LEAVE!!!! I went in for donuts and they only had like 12 left, so i ordered some chow mein, orange chicken, bbq pork, and some cream cheese wontons. They had to make the wontons so they put everything else in a bag and set on their counter till wontons were ready...so i sat down and waited 10 minutes till they gave me "my" bag...i walked all the way back to work and when i opened my container i had white rice and some kind of chicken kabob...at least i had my wontons...

great food, came on the late night. Breakfast doughnuts and coffee. These ladies took care of me??Thanks

It?s not that this is a bad place to eat. The food is average, probably 4 stars but it is in such a bad area and it?s pretty dirty inside that it drops everything at least 1 star. If you are in the area stop by but I wouldn?t recommend seeking it out.

I used to come and get credit with owner. I am talking about $20 credit. I would pass by every time had to go to the ports. The owner and worker know me and I PAYED the owner the momey. I returned and PAYED again. Therefore, Imgive this place 10 stars.

Been going to this place for at least 10 years. Been the same few ladies there, always remember me. Can't recommend enough. Both for Chinese food and their donuts.

Been a while since I had good food like this definitely coming back

I've been going since I was a kid and they have always been so sweet and nice to my family and I. I remember they used to give us free donuts with our order.??????

Worst food its smell like it not fresh chiken is like a rubbar it's very over cook beacuse I think they don't make everyday they put in frezer and sell it next day

It's ok ...the food is ok, but they don't serve u a lot like other places do....

Always quick and easy service. The food is always good and hot.

The noodles and green bean offerings were fire. This restaurant got it right. Many don't.

(Translated by Google) The truth is, the shrimp broth I ordered was terrible, it had more vegetables than shrimp. That's why I didn't give it 5 stars. (Original) La verdad el caldo d? camar?n q orden? estaba p?simo ten?a m?s verduras qu? camarones. Por eso no le di 5 estrellas..
