Golden Dragon Restaurant
Old-school Chinatown dim sum hall with roaming cart service, a format increasingly rare in Los Angeles
Worthy Picks
7.7
A 60-year-old Chinatown dim sum hall running one of the last traditional cart services in Los Angeles, where plates roll past and you point to eat. The food is reliable Cantonese banquet fare at prices that keep regulars cycling through weekly, though the room shows its age and service runs on a flag-down-your-cart rhythm that rewards initiative over patience.
Must-Try Dishes:
Har Gow, Shumai, Chicken Feet
What Makes it Special: Old-school Chinatown dim sum hall with roaming cart service, a format increasingly rare in Los Angeles
7.6
A low-key Vietnamese café best for fast, satisfying plates and takeout. The cơm tấm and combo phở are the move, with portions that feel generous for the price.
Must-Try Dishes:
Com Tam Dac Biet, Special Combo Pho, Goi Cuon (Spring Rolls)
What Makes it Special: Reliable, affordable Vietnamese plates with speedy service.
