China Garden Restaurant

They have one of the best homemade authentic Chinese food at a cheap price. The shop pretty much gives you a vintage traditional Chinese restaurant vibe. Highly recommend it for authentic Chinese cuisine lovers!!!

I have been ordering from this place for almost 8 years now and I’ll be honest I have never left a review… but now I am and I’ll explain why in a minute. I’ve moved three times since I started ordering from them … we ordered from another place before and their food never tasted fresh so we decided to try this small place out…. Now the early on when we ordered we had one bad meal - the fried rice tasted burnt I called and they IMMEDIATELY re made it and brought us new fresh rice and since then we’ve been a fan … today makes us more of one and wants everyone else to support this small business. Their prices are reasonable and the taste is amazing and it always 👏🏻 tastes 👏🏻 fresh 👏🏻…. Well today we wanted something different than our dinner for two a combo so decided to pick it up … we talked and I mentioned how we have always ordered from them and how we never see them delivering the food now (I get it it’s not easy anymore) we mentioned where we lived prior to our current place and as soon as the husband clicked that it was across from no frills he was able to remember the address to the place before and even the make and colour of the car we had!!!!! Talk about MIND BLOWN 🤯 this in itself shows how they appreciate their customers and I’m so glad we decided to do pick up today because it brings me to this review. This isn’t somewhere to sit down and eat but you won’t be disappointed…. Thank you for China Garden for putting us in disbelief today.

Ordered delivery. The Cantonese chow mein was the blandest food ever. They also used the wrong type of noodle. And maybe add some salt. Do NOT recommend.

Ordered from Uber Eats, was prepared quick and arrived on time. That's the only reason this is getting two stars.

Chicken balls were meh, really a lot of breading but passable. Sweet and sour sauce was thick but flavorless.

Lo Mein was edible but the chicken tasted expired or something, left a weird taste in the mouth for a long time after.

Would have gave 3 stars but I'm sick of Chinese places not sending chop sticks with your order. Won't order again. Is there any good Chinese in this city?

Ordered delivery from DoorDash. The food was… not good.

The egg rolls had no filling. The spring rolls had barely nothing. The fried rice was over done. The general tso chicken was terrible. It was dry and chewy and watered down.

Won’t order again.

EDIT: I want to re-iterate how awful this food is, it was some of the worst food I have eaten in my life - I do a lot of reviews is and this is some of the worst food I have ever eaten. Shame on whoever owns and runs this place.

Got delivery. Food was great and the portions were fair. Well worth the money. I loved the lemon chicken, it didn't taste like fake lemon. It tasted like it was made from real lemons. Also the food wasn't greasy, it was light but still filling.

Save you money and order from somewhere else.. This meal was $60 and HARD to get through. We ended up throwing away so much food.
Wontons - No filling
General Tao’s Chicken - No Sauce and hard
Sweet & Sour Chicken Balls - Mostly breading

This place was the epitome of proper western-style Chinese food way back in the 90's. It was run by an old Asian man, must have been about 80 - yet, very light hearted in demeanor and pleasant in character. He would joke they don't accept coupons, while presenting him with them, again - in a very fun and a pleasant tone and a smirk with a subtle laugh. I miss that man. I was too young to care at the time, but he made an impression. I sorely wish he was still around as his food was always fresh, made in his kitchen (not frozen off the truck), and absolutely tasty. Today, China Garden is run by someone else, and along with the change in ownership, the food has also measly changed into offerings of destitute and lonely flavors. Nostalgia doesn't always reward. Lesson in all this, if you have a favorite restaurant today, do enjoy it, as it may not be around tomorrow, and all we can be left is an imitation of what once was.
