I love suggesting Golden Temple as a meet-up for when my parents come into town. While the food is delicious, I definitely wouldn't be able to afford it on my own. The service stands typical to the Asian stereotype... not exactly the best, but hey, as long as they're not spitting in my food, I guess I can't complain! The lounge is wicked cool, after a certain hour it's 21+ but try to check it out if you get there early.
Pros: Americanized Chinese, lounge, food
Cons: Service, pricey
