The menu is a vibrant showcase of traditional Chinese favorites alongside European comfort food, offering something for every craving.

The selection of pork dishes stands out with varieties like Pork in Satay Sauce and Char Siu with Beansprouts in Barbecue Sauce tempting diners with bold, fragrant spices and tender, juicy meat.

The value for money is exceptional here, with generous portions that satisfy both appetite and budget. Liz Youll shares, “Just had a mixed grill... well there’s not many places you can feed 2 adults for less than a tenner. What a lovely meal. First class. 5 well deserved stars.” This balance of quality, quantity, and price makes Golden Seaside an unbeatable choice for family meals, casual takeaways, or those special nights craving bold, authentic flavors.
