by Lance M. on You know, there's alot of Chinese Restaurants in the Brookline area and I don't have to pay $$$$ for General Gau at the Golden Temple, when I can get it for $$ in other places CLOSE BY. I can go to Chef Chow's in Coolidge Corner which is a little more than your hole-in -the wall places (which are mostly great) and I think their food is just as good , or better than the Solid Gold Temple. Just on principle I'm not ever going to pay $72.00 for the same meal that I paid close to $35.00 and was just as good. I felt like I was ripped off when I saw the bill. Down the street, is Ducky Wah (you could call it hole in the wall) this place is great, and allot cheaper than Solid Gold Temple. I know we're in Brookline, and I make six figures, so money's no object - unfortunately, as a musician, this isn't my financial situation so I'll go to all of the other lowly Chinese Restaurants surrounding Golden Temple, but the joke's on you; the food is just as good as Chef Chows, Ducky Wah, Chef Changs, Super 88 (in Allston) etc. Everything I said here about Golden Temple also goes for P.F. Changs.
by Martha Grattelo on This is a great place to get a drink before or after dinner. The best time to go is on a clear day or night. Drinks are a little pricy but with the view and the nice atmosphere its worth it.
