Super affordable dim sum. Our go tos are chicken feet, shrimp rolls, bbq pork mini baos, and shrimp dumplings. Always consistent and never misses.
Top notch Chinese food in a quaint little restaurant on Beacon Hill. Looks sketchy but the food is consistently good
Great prices, gigantic portions, and delicious food! Service is friendly. Ambiance is negligible since I believe it is takeout only. My partner and I loved the baos.
Taste and service hasn't changed since we started going here in college...20+ years ago. Shumai, fried noodles, shrimp dumplings, sticky rice, and puto are so delicious and quality (portions and cost) hasn't changed much since e COVID and recent price gouging months of 'supply chain shortage, gas supply shortages, inflation, greedy organizations & folks'. Two locations - never green to Tukwila location but Beacon Hill locale has always been our go to.
This is a review after 3 different visits to the store to provide more completeness. The 3 vists were on different days too (Wed., Sat., & Mon.) to gauge service and food quality at different times. The review is also limited to foods tasted from the roast meats and Dim Sum only. I have included prices lists as of Feb. 2022. As of this writing in April 2022, the place only offers take-out. Service is fine for a mom and pop place. CASH only please. Dim Sum - Not all Dim Sum are created equal. There's the higher end high-end restaurant qaulity, and "Street Food" level of quality. Golden Daisy falls in the latter category. Having said that, the food ingredientss were fresh, though may be of a lesser quality. For example, the shrimp in the Shrimp Dumplings were very small (though there were many!) compared to larger shrimp in higher quality places. Shu Mai was mainly pork with no visable shrimp. There may be chopped shrimp in them but I can't tell nor am able to taste from the samples. The item size was large for these items. The overall quality and taste of these items were consistent over the 3 I was times there. The standouts for me are the deep fried dumplings, the Bean Curd Rolls (Slight quality consistentcy issues on this one.), and the rice dumpling ("Jung", not on menu.). The Bao dough and taste were very good, though there's way too little stuffing in them. The pricing was very good compared to other Dim Sum places, which I believe makes this place worth visiting especially. Roasts meats - Only tried the Char Siew and the Roast Pork so far. The former is nothing to write about. The latter had some quality issues, but the taste is actually pretty good. (The last time, the lady dripped sauce on the crispy skin of the roast pork, negating the crispy skin texture { SIN! ], and was drier than the previous 2 times.) Overall, I am pleased to have tried out this place, and will very likely visit frequently compared to other places for the Dim Sum. I believe there are places offering better Roast Meats however. Regardles, this place offers a better bang for the buck for the cost conscious.
What you see is what you get - an honest spot with good dim sum and bbq pork and duck. Was put grocery shopping which generally makes me hungry. That reminded me that I'd been meaning to give Golden Daisy a try. Fresh, tasty and inexpensive. Had the sticky rice, siu mai and shrimp dumplings. All good. Will give the roasted pork a try on the next visit. No pics this time - too busy chowing down and honestly it's not about the aesthetics here - just straight up good food.
My go to place when we have a big party and need food to cater the function... I'm willing to travel all the way down here to pick my my trays of Shumai (they are big) Har gow, sticky rice, Puto, Duck & Lechon just to name some of my favorites.... Yummy goodness and price is Reasonable.
Love this little gem on Beacon Hill! Don't let the unassuming and somewhat shabby exterior fool you. Inside you will find sublime BBQ pork, duck and crispy roast pork. The BBQ pork is lean, tasty and at $7 a pound, a real bargain. For around $300 you can purchase a whole crispy pig. This family run restaurant has friendly and attentive service. The portions are large and the prices are more than reasonable. Four of us could barely finish two dishes. Stop in and you will be sure to become a regular.
