“Went to China Garden in Chelsea on Christmas night for takeout. Seems like everyone in Chelsea had the same idea - they were slammed with every type of order (call-in, online, walk-in, Door Dash) and the staff were working so hard to take care of everyone as quickly as possible.
I made it home with our order and everything was hot, fresh, and delicious.
Thank you, China Garden, for being open for business on Christmas Day! I hope 2026 is a phenomenal year for you! We will be back to see you again soon! Merry Christmas and thank you again. 🫶🏻“

“I have ordered take out a number of times, I am picky about certain vegetables being in my order and have been able to order side orders of the vegetables I am not picky about. The food is good seasoned in line with most Chinese food I like to eat... They stand above the other Chinese restaurant to me for letting me order what I wanted even items not on the menu.. all I had to do was ask.

Parking: I have been able to park right by the front door every time I've been in there“

“I got general tso chicken and it was very good. My only complaint is that they outer watercress in it instead of broccoli, which I found to be a very unpleasant flavor and texture combination so I had to remove them. If they shifted to broccoli it would have been perfect“

“My son and I are in town for a baseball tournament and stayed around the corner from Eating Time. We noticed it yesterday after eating at the burger place next door. We wanted something different today so we stopped in after reading the reviews, and I’m really glad we did.

First, it was a smaller place with about 10 or so tables. It looked like a typical Chinese take-out place but that is where the similarities ended.

First we were greeted by the sweetest lady who sat us. She informed us the lunch special included a drink so we both got sodas. Originally we were doing water but she let us know we could get a soda as it’s included.

I ordered the sesame chicken and my son ordered the sweet and sour. These are our go to meals. We opted for egg drop soup and the meal also come with an egg roll.

The egg rolls and soup came out super fast. The sweet and sour sauce for the eggrolls is the best I have ever had. Also, I’m not normally a fan of egg drop soup but I went with it because I didn’t want the hot and sour soup. I’m glad I did. That soup is the best egg drop soup I have tasted. I ate mine and my sons because he wasn’t a fan of it. PLUS…they give you a huge basket of crunchy fried wonton strips with it.

The eggroll was good. It was on the smaller side in side…basically halfway between a spring roll and typical size eggroll.However, the highlight was the sweet and sour dipping sauce. 10/10. My sons who NEVER eats eggrolls ate this one and raved about the sauce. So…plus 1000 points just for that.

The entrees came right on time. It was served on and actual plate with some attention to presentation. Sesame chicken was just about perfect. Crunchy and sauced with plentiful sesame seeds. It was not highly breaded and soggy dripping with sauce. I think it would rival P.F. Chang’s unquestionably.

Fried rice was great. I make fried rice at home a ton so I am picky. This was a perfect pairing. A couple of pieces of broccoli and a bed of rice noodles under the chicken rounded off the plate and added a nice extra texture.

My son’s sweet and sour chicken looked like full chicken fingers they were so big. Definitely not the small mostly breaded chicken bits you get at most places.

Now for the best part….total bill for all of this was $26 and some change. After 25% tip we left paying under $35 for a fantastic meal.

I would go back over and over if I lived here. Just a solid and wonderful experience at a local restaurant. Stop by and support them!“

“We have eaten in and had take-out. Usually the food is better than average. I just hate it when I order take-out and get home to find something missing. This time it was the chow mein. No noodles! Really? Only cabbage and shrimp, no noodles.
Chicken Lomein is good! Mooshoo is very good! Not crazy about the egg rolls or spring rolls. I ordered online. It's better to call in and actually talk to someone.
Hit and miss, but still above average.
Update: We have found our favorite dishes here and they are consistently delicious. Try the Moo shoo pork with extra plum sauce, and Kung pow chicken. Get the fried rice too! Soups are also good!“

“I had one of the best dining experiences I’ve had in a long time at P.F. Chang’s, and it was entirely because of my server, Erin. I was dining alone, and she made what could have been a simple meal feel genuinely special from start to finish.

From the moment I sat down, Erin was warm, welcoming, and incredibly attentive in a way that felt natural—not forced or over the top. She has a rare ability to read the table perfectly. She checked in at just the right moments, anticipated what I needed before I even had to ask, and made thoughtful recommendations that were spot-on. Everything felt seamless.

What really stood out to me was how comfortable she made me feel dining alone. That’s not something every server does well, but Erin created such an easy, relaxed atmosphere that I never once felt out of place. She treated me with the same level of care and attention you’d expect for a large party or special occasion, which says a lot about her professionalism and character.

Beyond being attentive, she brought such a positive, genuine energy to the entire experience. You can tell she truly cares about her guests and takes pride in what she does—it shows in every interaction. It’s rare to come across service that feels this thoughtful and effortless at the same time.

Erin is an absolute standout and a huge asset to this location. Experiences like this are the reason people come back, and I will absolutely be returning—specifically hoping to be in her section again.

Thank you, Erin, for turning a simple solo dinner into something memorable.“

“Panda Express is a solid choice for fast, flavorful Chinese‑American food that’s convenient without sacrificing taste. The setup is cafeteria‑style, letting you choose from a variety of well‑seasoned entrées and sides — perfect for a quick lunch, dinner on the go, or a casual meal with friends or family.

The menu hits all the familiar favorites. Orange Chicken is the star attraction: crispy, saucy, and sweet with a hint of tang. Beijing Beef and Kung Pao Chicken bring savory, bold flavors with a bit of spice and texture, while Honey Walnut Shrimp offers a sweeter, crunchy alternative. Sides like steamed rice, fried rice, and chow mein are dependable classics that balance the bold main dishes.“
