Golden Light can boast that it stays open later than mostrestaurants in town (until 2 a.m. weekends and 1:30 a.m. week nights), which makes it a hot-spot for area night owls. This super-casual Chinese and Mandarin restaurant offers a wide menu of dinner options and snacks, including bargain-priced full family dinners. The unadorned dining area squeezes in just two tables, somost customers opt for take-out.Though many stick around for the show. Golden light hasserved the area for 28 years, and part of their success is the promise that each order is individually prepared—all food is cooked fresh to order, and everything can be altered to individual tastes. The kitchen is visible behind the counter, and chefs can be seen preparing each order.
