I've been eating at China Garden for several years, have never been disappointed. Sometimes food is a little slow to come, but always tastes good.

Out of all of my favorite Chinese Food places, this is my go-to. I am a pork fried rice fan, and this is one of my favorites.

DO NOT ORDER HERE IF YOU HAVE ANY ALLERGIES. Based on the ineptitude I dealt with today, they can’t be trusted to communicate and be safe. The staff is uninformed and unclear. We had previously used this place as one where they did not have cross contamination from peanuts due to a severe peanut allergy in our family. It was always a lady who answered. We called today and a young male answered who was non committal and generally ambivalent about answering whether they could avoid cross contamination. He finally said they could, but then called back 10 minutes later to say that they couldn’t. I asked why if they had been safe before and he said “I dunno, I guess they use peanut oil or something. I don’t actually know. You can talk to them if you want” so the kitchen got on and said they were too busy to avoid cross contamination at the moment so they need to cancel the order. I’ve ordered from there when it’s busy before, and now wondering if I put our person with peanut allergies at risk given their poor communication and lack of clarity here. Will not call back.

Good Chinese food is something I cherish wholeheartedly, but China Garden misses that mark by quite a lot.First time I went here, I got the sweet and sour pork. Without the sauce, It was quite unremarkable in flavor and quite greasy.Second time I got the honey chicken. The honey sauce's flavor was quite good, as it was a straightforward honey sauce. However, there was legit more batter than chicken in each nugget! I could peel it off like you could peel off dead skin from a formerly blistering sunburn! I also find it comical that one of the dishes I could recommend is the "sesame chicken with diced chicken and lots of breading" because that is exactly what they did to the honey chicken! The final result flavor-wise was something as greasy as Julian from Trailer Park Boys! Also, talk about a shortcut!However, China Garden does have a couple of saving graces.First, the cost of a takeout dinner here isn't going to break the bank. With tip and tax, the honey chicken with white rice set me back $13.10. In 2023, that isn't bad at all!Second, The pork fried rice here is very good! All the flavors that go into it are nice and balanced, and I could see myself coming back for that if I were craving it.That said, if you go to China Garden, then you may have an experience greater than the conglomerate 3 star experience I had provided you STAY FAR AWAY from the deep fried items.

When it comes to places, my s/o and I try multiple pertaining to that food category, if it be italian cuisine, to mexican cuisine, to chinese cuisine, etc. One of my top picks that outdoes the rest has to be China Garden, with its homely atmosphere, to their top service and food selection, perfect for any setting you are doing. I always try a different item on their menu, and never left hungry or unhappy. Please check them out and see for yourself!
