Golden Joy Bar cum Restaurant is located on Matheswartola Road in Tangra that serves Chinese cuisines only. It provides some of the best served alcohols as well as western wines. The delectable range of food includes all excellent dishes from China like Dim Sum, Chowmein, Choupsey, Manchurian, Fried Rice, Noodles etc. Elaborate eatery at Golden Joy Restaurant can space out 200 – 250 diners any time in its large 5-6 dining halls situated in two of its floors and for this reason one can easily get a place without waiting. Waiter Service, Take Reservation, Valet Parking, Take Away, Alcohol / Bar and spicy Kolkata Chinese fare has made Golden Joy a fairly popular place. It operates seven days a week from 12 PM to 11:45 PM. The decor is quite simple, with wood paneling and comfortable seating in sofas & chairs with ordinary tables. There are televisions & sound systems in the end of each of the dining rooms, which play eventful programmes or music at all times of the day. Alcohol is served in both half and full pegs as well as bottles of all sizes that are available in wine shops. A 750 ml bottle of Royal Stag whiskey will cost you Rs 660 (tax free), which is much cheaper compared to individual pegs amounting to the same quantity, served at other restaurants in other locations. Antiquity Blue whiskey (180 ml) bottle costs Rs. 500. Even the soft drinks and soda are cheaper here as compared to other places. Service is quite swift and the behavior of the staff is friendly. From their extensive menu, you can choose Chilli Garlic Paneer, Hunan Chicken, Dragon Chicken, Ginger Chicken, Salt & Pepper Chicken, Korean Fish Stick as starters. These dishes should be taken as dry if consumed as starter items or in the gravy format if taken as a side dish in the main course. Their special Golden Joy Soup is very refreshing. It costs Rs. 230 for the large bowl which can serve 7-8 persons. A small quantity is also available that can serve 3-4 persons. Mixed hakka Chowmein or Schezwan mixed Fried Rice should be ordered in the main course. The Kung Pao gravy is very good and is available with fish/ chicken/ prawn. Though I must mention that most of the side dishes are available with choices of fish/ chicken/ prawn as according to what the customer might like. The chicken dishes (full plate) costs between Rs. 200 -250 and can serve 7-8 persons. They are also available in half plate costing around Rs. 130 and serve 3-4 persons. The Korean fish stick has fresh vekti and is more kebab type rather than Chinese and costs around Rs. 450 (serves 7-8). The prawn items (full plate) in any gravy like lut me, or kung pao or chili garlic will cost around Rs. 520 (serves 7-8). But the one dish that you must not miss is the innovative Dragon’s Eye: shrimps rolled in bread crumbs and deep fried. For desserts, ordinary ice-creams in cup (Rs. 30) are available, though you might try out their Kulfi (Rs. 50) as well. The average price per head for a group of 6-8 persons or more would cost around Rs. 300-400 (inclusive of taxes & without drinks). The weekends have a mad rush of crowd in this place and hence food quality falls down a bit at those hours. Therefore it’s always best to visit during the weekdays. Dine at Golden Joy and experience that golden feeling of euphoria, only a good meal can leave you with.
