Very fresh and delicious dishes. Sesame chicken, crispy rice noodles with shrimp and veggies, dumplings and much more.

My son wanted to try Baumgart’s tonight for dinner. Nicole, our server, was very nice, polite, engaging, and attentive. I had the Szechuan shrimp which was very good. My son had the sesame chicken which he said was also very good. Portions were on the larger side. I was very pleased with the dinner tonight. I would definitely go back.

We've been dining at Baumgart's for 10+ years, the food is consistently delicious and the staff great (Nicole and team) - highly recommend either eat in or take out. We love the big bowl soups and the chef's recommendations always a solid choice.

Overall:
I love their menu at least all the things I have tried so far they have fantastic vegetable options that actually are delicious.
Their ice cream is so amazingly creamy and the flavors are blend well if you like multiple flavors to have two different flavor scoops like my sister and I do.

Best dishes in my humble opinion:

I love their shu mai, sesame chicken, healthy jumbo shrimp with vegetables and their mei fun is the best of any place I have ever gotten taken out from.

We order a lot especially while we were in the process of moving.

They are friendly nice, clean, polite, and deliver and their delivery people are good and polite. Plus the food is has been fairly good quality the many days we have order

Other positive things:
For Disabled or low mobility people
they have delivery that works out fine and I don't drive so that is good for me as I can't walk more than a few feet and use a wheelchair/ walker due to mobility issue from a past injury.
One day I hope to be able to go there in person and see the ambience up close as I used to go to a diner with my family as a child and it looks so much like it (at least from the street when I have passed when I did have a ride into Ridgewood a few times in the past.
Extra happy with Baumgarts Cafe because I can eat here without getting the high gluten food pain& overly spicy food pain I now get at so many of my former favorite places. Much of what I have at Baumgarts is mild enough for me but still tasty so my severe health changes have made this one of the only places I can go to without severe health side effects.

Loyal Baumgart's diehard for 34 years here. There are so many hits that are still great after all these years. I'm really grateful Ridgewood is still open, still mourning Englewood & Edgewater—praying they keep doing what they're doing for at least another 34!

Must haves: broccoli salad, pan-fried house dumplings, sesame noodles, chicken & pine nuts, sesame chicken, homemade espresso ice cream

If you want Authentic Asian cuisine food that tastes delicious and big in portions this is your place. I came here once and immediately went back two weeks after! Kind and friendly staff

Have been going to Baumgarts for over 25 years. Sesame chicken & Pan Fried Crisp Noodles have always been our favorite not to mention the Death by Chocolate. Food gets better & better as times moves on!

I love the duck crepes and have been ordering them for over 20 years. We love everything we order. The restaurant could use a little deep cleaning and updating but the food is always good

Been coming here since I was a kid and it's been my favorite place for Chinese food all these years. The quality of the food is fantastic and I think it's gotten better over time! Their sesame chicken was my favorite as a kid and since I became a pescatarian, their sesame tofu has become my favorite! They always managed to make their chicken so crisp and they do the same with their tofu! And the sesame sauce is my favorite I've had. Highly recommend!!!

Kid-friendliness: As a kid I was in love with the decorations and art! Still love it as an adult
