We tried this place out of desperation on Thanksgiving after a mediocre meal. We were shocked and stunned at the portion sizes and prices. It's very reminiscent of the Chinese food I remember from the 2000. Not to mention it was delicious, and they focus more on their proteins and vegetables then they seemingly do on their starches.

Best Chinese on River Road. Service was quick and attentive. Near-empty restaurant had us a little nervous. Though, they seemed busy with takeout orders.Server was attentive without being overbearing. Ordered a family dinner and the timing between the appetizers and the main entrees was perfect.Portions were very generous, especially given the price. Even had leftovers to take home. Food was hot-without being overcooked or nuked; and flavorful.My partner, who didn’t even want Chinese food that night, and I walked out excited to find a new go-to Chinese restaurant near our home.Parking: Parking lot was shared with other businesses.

Went for the first time, wasn’t my partners first time, and I loved it! Well it was very quiet and we were the only people too around 7pm so we got lucky, though the food was good but the egg flour soup was definitely my favorite. Our waitress was this young gentlemen and he had such a respectful calm and patient demeanor, would definitely go again!:)

Was decent food, a little pricey. But so is most Chinese food places. You get exactly what you pay for.

It's a cute little place in an old KFC building, and the food has been consistently good even as the name has changed a few times over 20 or so years. It's solid middle-of-the-road Chinese food, and is worth the money. Sometimes they close a little early if it's not busy, so don't wait around until the last half-hour if you want something.

IT was a dark and stormy night. Suddenly my tummy growled from hunger. Beloved bride was recovering from her Olympic Gold Medal at Cookie Tossing. After most every meal being on the TV tray in front of the TV -- the dining room table and the kitchen table still covered with tchatkes from Christmas -- I had to go out for a meal. Chen's Happy Garden is about a 7 minute drive from my house. They offer multi-item dinners for an affordable price! I can call for pick-up and not have to worry about dishes. I called and ordered a #5 dinner: Almond Chicken Subgum Chow Mein, Fried Shrimp, Sweet and Sour Pork, Pork Fried Rice -- $12.75. I won't endevour to comment on all the dishes. None were sub-par. None were excellent. All were nothing I would go out of my way for. But for convenience, quick service (15 minutes), LEAK PROOF PACKAGING and cost effectiveness - given the same circumstances, I'd do it all over again. Nobody want's to see a bowl of "ah fooey" (everything dumped into a single pot or bowl), so I'll leave the menu from zmenu and post a picture of my dog.

At the end of our meal she decided to add her own tip. She added 15% to our bill. We asked to substitute something and they refused. Then we ordered pan fried noodles and were burnt. It was me, my partner and our 2 sons. I will never go in there again.

Having eaten here before, went back today. We were immediately told before being seated how much we were required to tip. (18%) and they would not seat us at one of the bigger tables in the back so that the 5 of us could sit together. She was extremely rude. Considering only 2 tables were occupied I would think they would have wanted the service. Too bad because the food is pretty good. Reminds me of the old Louie's restaurant. We will not be back.

The lady that serves you is rude and cannot smile. She needs to get a personality. Food is okay nothing worth returning for

Awesome classic Chinese food. Definitely underrated. We have been here several times and if your looking for Chinese food with no weird twist this is the place. Affordable and really generous portion sizes. The food is always hot and fresh. Dining room and restaurant is clean and gives you that classic Chinese restaurant feel.
