Golden Bull is an all you can eat Chinese Hot Pot. You have a choice of AYCE BBQ or Hot Pot where you get to cook your chosen ingredients in the gas cooker at the dining table. They are open late to 2:00am in the weekends. The seating area is large holding up to 100+ customers. Limited free parking designated to the restaurant is available.
This type of restaurant with hot pots and BBQ together no longer exists in Richmond. It was one of the best hot pot restaurants in Richmond a couple of years ago. Their food and soup were good but the place is a bit dirty.
Frozen meat is sliced deli-thin to prepare it for hot pot cooking. Slicing frozen meat this way causes it to roll up during cooking, and it is often presented as such. Meats used include lamb, beef, chicken, duck, mutton, and others. The cooking pot is often sunk into the table and fueled by propane, or alternatively is above the table and fueled by a portable butane gas stove or hot coals. Meat or vegetables are loaded individually into the hot cooking broth by chopsticks, and cooking time can take from 1 minute to 15, depending on the type of food. Meat should be cooked at the very least 20 seconds. Other hot pot dishes include leafy vegetables, mushrooms, seafood, and noodles. It can be eaten bland to very spicy, depending on how much spice has been put in the stew.
It's alright for a place that opens late into the night serving pitchers of beer. All-you-can-eat is always a nice attraction. It's not the cleanest of places as is imaginable by the fact that they serve hot pot around the clock with sauces and the like making spills, etc. Their chopped up little chilli peppers seem to be consistently browned and reused--so if you don't finish your little dishes of condiments, pour the rest into the pot of soup or something so that maybe the next guy there will get some fresh ones. That's just what it seems like to me, as I did not investigate further to see if it was actually a fact. So don't take my word for it. It is an alright place but they do not give complimentary sauces in the variety and quality the way the one on Garden City does, as well as the service, decor, and cleanliness.
The Golden Bull Sea Food Hot Restaurant was a good standby several years ago.
Be advised however that this establishment is no longer operational at this location, an alternative might be H.K.Y.K. Hot Pot Restaurant on No. 3 Road.
There wasn't any thing outstanding about this restaurant that's worth mentioning.
The food was average, not wasn't great either. I thought consider the cost, which was $19 per person plus extra charge for the hotpot soup base, it was not worth it. I would rather go to a regular Chinese restaurant, order a few reg. dishes plus hotpot on the side.
The service was average. And some of my friends' complained that the floor was dirty and sticky. Hey, what do you expected from an all-you-can-eat Chinese hotpot place with a carpeted floor?
