Orange Garden Chop Suey Chow Mein is an excellent Chinese-American restaurant that offers a classic dining experience. The clean, traditional diner-style interior features comfortable midcentury chairs, table-clothed 4 tops, and walls adorned with lacquered village scapes. The fare is consistent with the decor, featuring fresh ingredients, including the fried skin of the egg rolls with a hint of peanut butter. The seafood, poultry, and beef dishes each maintain their own character under the unifying Szechuan gravy, resulting in clear and pleasant flavors. The fried rice could double as dessert for those with a sweet tooth, and the mustard is vaporous and expansive. The waitstaff is delightful, and the tiny bathroom is a sanctuary. Customers have praised the place for its nice service, tasty food, and old-school vibe. Classic dishes like orange chicken, beef lo mein, and egg rolls are flavorful and fresh, with the orange chicken often highlighted as the best in years—moist, not over fried, and fresh-looking. The crab rangoon is packed with well-flavored filling, and the vegetable egg foo young is perfectly fried—soft and not too hard. Overall, a very familiar and enjoyable place that is not to be missed, with quick service and easy online ordering making it a go-to for takeout.
