City of Gold' is a sweet and charming portrait of a talented man with a big appetite -- for food, for people, for Los Angeles.

It's really a documentary about journalism and eating, and truly appreciating both words and food.
March 25, 2016
It's a documentary that is ostensibly a profile of a man, but is really about the vibrant city he inhabits, beyond the Hollywood sheen and the grit of Compton.

It's obviously fun being Gold.

A colorful and loving tribute to the kinds of restaurants that food critics once ignored - and a few fancy places as well.

There's an honesty in what Gold writes and the way he writes it, which is why his words have so much impact. The film has a similar impact to one of his reviews.

An unalloyed success, this documentary makes the city and its subject one.

It's a neat little bit of hagiography, dwelling fondly on his quirks, but that's OK. For people who want to taste the world, Gold is a patron saint.

While the documentary occasionally verges on hagiography... it doesn't irritate... It's just a nice movie about a nice man

Gabbert's film is part portrait, part city symphony. It celebrates Gold as a fixture of his native Los Angeles and L.A. as in thrall to its stalwart guide.

Be warned: if you go on an empty stomach, you will certainly not last the distance.
