The chicken and broccoli dish now contains very little chicken and no longer includes carrots and water chestnuts. Instead, they've replaced them with onions and reduced the sauce, making the dish a bit dry.

I also felt the portion for the extra chicken might have been flexible. It's unfortunate because the staff is friendly and the service is excellent, but the food quality has declined lately.

There were far too many onions, which overwhelmed the dish—I usually like onions, but this was unpleasant. Additionally, the Singapore noodles had no heat at all. It’s a shame because this used to be one of my top two favorite spots, and with Golden Chopsticks closing next week, it looks like Bolingbrook will be left without any good Chinese restaurants.

There were more onions than beef, so I couldn't finish the dish. I've experienced much better versions on the menu at other restaurants.
