Do not waste your time. Food was disgusting, lo mein was all soy sauce so salty. Rice was bland, all the meats were chewy and disgusting. Wasted $100 and had to order pizza take out from the place below on the way out. Better off with gas station food.

Disgusting food! The meat did not taste like beef! It tasted likes some foreign meat I’ve never had. It had a sour flavor. Same with the pork. I was there toward the end of the night . The staff sat next to us and ate their food with their hands . Gross! I was so turned off by this place . I would never go back. The food is absolutely disgusting! Staff are dirty .

We were seeking a place to take our party of 8 to dinner on a holiday weekend. Everywhere was packed and we stumbled upon Cheing Garden. Plenty of big tables so we got sat right away. The kids menu was perfect for our kids. They were very accommodating with our 4 small children. Everything came out fast and the food was good! It was so nice escaping the crowds and clearly this is a hidden gem.

Don’t fall for the cheap prices on the menu, their service is extreamly slow, the waiter doesn’t give any clarification on the dishes and has no patience to listen to an order. We ordered one of the dishes and we’re just give the dish without any rice, because rice doesn’t come with the order and the weiteres didn’t bother mentioning it. The food is absolutely bland and when we asked to make it spicy, she charged us for 2 chilli oil but only gave 1. Portions are only enough for one person and it just feels like frozen food that’s been reheated.Horrible place, don’t waste your money, get something else, it’s not worth it.

Located on the 2nd floor of the Lincoln Square plaza, this restaurant is often overlooked by passerby. They actually have a really nice dining area overlooking the South Mountain Ski Resort. The restaurant is the same location where the Lahout's Summit Shop and Subway. Large parking lot. Food is great with large of selections as typical Chinese restaurant.

The fact they charge a dollar for “hot mustard” that is legitimately 85% water was bad enough

This food sucks! Beef is out of a can!! Nothing remarkable about any of the 5 dishes we ordered! Skip this place.

They add service fee without notice. Food is bad too. Don't come.

Snarky waitress, noodles had more soy sauce than noodles, and the meat's texture and taste were worrying.

I think this was hot and sour chicken but I don't remember very clearly. It was full of celery and undercooked veggies. Overall it didn't taste good.

We went there on a Saturday for dinner after finding out Gordi's was closed past the time of our stay. It was not busy at all and we now know why.The lobby is dirty with dirty windows and dingy. You have to take three sets of stairs or an elevator (it is on the second floor). The "hostess" appeared to be on a personal phone call when we walked in. She sat low behind the front desk which was also filled with alcohol. After a little while, she hung up the phone and while walking away from us, said "Two?" No smile or anything really welcoming. The decorations were like something from a night club. The windows were dirty. The carpeting was in desperate need of being replaced. The ceiling needed tiles replaced. The booth had crumbs on the seats. The carts they use to deliver the food to the tables were dirty and apparently wrapped in plastic wrap (maybe to make clean-up easier?). This was gross to look at as sauces and other matter was clearly visible.There were no "dinner plates" just lunch which ends at 2:30PM so we had to order a la carte. Food was okay, although some was over-flavored (too much garlic, too much salt, too much sauce). Chicken fingers were good but there weren't a lot of them. Crab rangoons were flat with only a teaspoon of very hot (temp) filling.Do not order the Cold Noodles with Sesame Sauce - the noodles all stuck together and were very dry and the sesame "sauce" was a spoon of peanut-butter-like substance - almost impossible to eat. Portions for (dine in) were somewhat small. Some food was reheated, some was cold but shouldn't have been.The bill was quite high. Also, sodas were $3.50 and they charged $3.95 for white rice. General Gau's Chicken came with around ten chunks of chicken swimming in lots of sauce on a big plate for $13.99. The worst part is they charge a "Service Fee" as well. This is first restaurant I have ever been to that charges a "Service Fee"; and this is not a tip. Tip is on top of that. For our overpriced bill of $85.35, the "Service Fee" was $14.15!!! I could see if we were a party of 6 or more, but it was the two of us.Yes, it was a lot of food, but we chose the dishes that we normally like at our hometown Chinese restaurant since that was the only way we could order. We took the leftovers home - meaning, they brought us to-go containers and we had to pack the leftovers ourselves - essentially clearing our own table. I wouldn't have been surprised if they made us clean our table and wash the dishes too.We don't live in Lincoln, NH - we traveled there from 3 states away. We will never return to this restaurant. Hopefully our review helps others avoid a disappointing and expensive mistake. Yes, we could have left but it had been a long day and there aren't many choices to eat out in that area and we try to give places a chance. Plus, you don't really know how things are going to be until after they happen, and then it can get awkward complaining about it all.Lesson learned.

This place is super underated. I never leave reviews but I was passing through town and saw this place only had 3 stars and assumed it would be bad. I was craving some Chinese takeout so I walked in and looked around and got a good vibe. I ordered dumplings, beef and broccoli, egg rolls and wonton soup and was suprised how left it was. It’s certainly not winning any Michelin stars but it holds up with any decent Chinese food in NYC or Boston. So much better than you usually get in small rural areas like this. Having a place like this in NH is a gem and people should support this business.
