The E Room at Golden Temple
E room could stand for enormous, electronic or eager. With an uber-attentive staff, pulsing mood lighting, drunken dancers, and satisfying american-style chinese food, an evening here is anything but dull. This past Thursday, a large party took up the back row seating and I dined alongside the dance floor with several other couples. This is a common date spot. In the lounge side of Golden Temple, called the E room, the techno-dance music overwhelms those with the intention of conversation. The music could best be described as cheesy 90s pop remixed into dance anthems. Fun, for sure, with a large group of drunken ladies. The food was overpriced for the portion size and quality; most entrees were around $15 for a medium sized helping. The calamari was breaded beyond belief. For drinks, however, I would strongly recommend the dark chocolate martini, $10. Come to the E room with a large group, order a few appetizers and focus the evening on drinks; although expensive, they allow the ambiance its over-the-top fun. Located on Beacon Street in Washington Square, Brookline.
