China Garden

Tried this place for the first time the other day. Here’s the good– the appetizer portions are double what you get from other chinese restaurants. 10 crab rangoon (normal size) for $ 4.50 PuPu Platter has 2 of almost every appetizer on the menu for $ 9.50 Thats chicken kabobs, wings, strips, crab rangoon, wontons, egg rolls, and a few more I just can’t remember off the top of my head. A really good value overall. My entrée Mongolian Beef was actually very tasty.
Here’s the bad. My Entrée, Mongolian Beef was the strangest Mongolian Beef I have ever had. Normally this is beef in a brown somewhat spicy sauce with an excessive amount of green onions and that’s about it. Kinda tough to screw up. This Mongolian Beef had a few green onions, white onions, baby corn, snap peas, carrots, water chestnuts and bamboo shoots. What the heck is this? I double checked my receipt when I got home after making this discovery and it clearly said Mongolian Beef. I’ve ordered this dish from many different restaurants and NEVER had anything come close to this conglomeration of ingredients. Again, it was not bad tasting, it was quite tasty. But it seemed like Beef with every available vegetable in spicy brown sauce, not a true Mongolian Beef. For this you lost a couple stars. I’ll likely be back, but I’ll ask for the ingredients in everything I order since these recipes are totally inconsistent with every other chinese restaurant on the planet.

Disgusting food and terrible customer service. Vicki the «manager» should be fired.
Don’t get the garlic chicken or the spare ribs. Your food will be spoilt and you will not get your money back.

Their beef n broccoli is delicious. EVERY TIME! In fact, I usually don’t try anything else. I have though, a few chicken dishes. All good but the beef n broccoli is for me! OH and. Rangoons are also very tasty.

I just called to order food from this place, and upon a disagreement over the charges I was hung up on. Upon calling back to ask why I was hung up on, I was told that I was not hung up on and argued with for several minutes before being hung up on AGAIN! By the manager no less! Look who lost my business, and I LOVE Chinese food! Hope it was worth it, snarky, rude, woman who manages the joint!
Ta!

The positives are that they are fast and the food is relatively good. The $ 5.60 lunch specials are a great deal. The negatives are that there is little to no seating and they don’t have fountain soda– big bummer! The place is starting to show its wear and tear and needs to be updated and painted. Relatively clean restaurant with average Chinese food. My favorite thing is their fried dumplings– really yummy with a great dipping sauce.

Really amazed that they can have such poor customer service and still be in business. We have ordered from here several times before, and the food quality has been going down.
Tonight, a new low for service ever. We ordered two dishes, and one of them was not anything like it looked on the menu. Called them to inquire, and they insisted that it was correct, when it was clearly incorrect. It did not match the menu whatsoever. Called back, and the owner insisted she was correct, then was verbally abusive, and then hung up on me. She was absolutely not interested in fixing the situation.
The incorrect order was pretty gross once we tasted it, so we did not eat it. The other one was just ok. Won’t be going back. I don’t recommend you go either.

As I was waiting for my food I ordered, I watched the girl use her bare hands to pick up food. Disgusting. Will never go back.

After a lovely evening of batting cages with visiting 9 year old nephew we decided on chinese food. Ending up here, we ordered, sat and waited. The nephew heads to the candy machines. One quarter, two. no luck. «Go to the counter and get your money back and stop putting quarters in the machines» we told him. This didn’t phase him. He tries another. Only this time sticking his fingers inside the slots where the candy comes out. «I’ve got something» he said. So he ends up pulling a prepackaged little cake that was blocking candy from coming out. Huh. He ended up pulling one out of every one that dispensed candy. I got to thinking wow if they’ll steal quarters from candy machines I wonder what shortcuts they would take with the food. Might have been psychological but the food was terrible. It looked nice (Honey chicken) but not so much. The kid and I felt sick later but the girlfriend said hers was fine. Eat at your own risk.

Very fast delivery. Never disappointed!

Food is great — love the lite menu. Delivery is usually pretty quick. Lunch prices are good. Staff is friendly. The chicken and garlic sauce is one I tried that wasn’t very good, but the veggie lo mein is outstanding. Their spring rolls are tasty too.

Have ordered lunch here several times. Certainly nothing stellar about this place other than the somewhat large portions served. As we get our lunch to-​go, this place is usually on-​time with their estimates. The young lady who usually takes the order and serves the food, is unfriendly. Never smiles. Never thanks anyone for the business. You are to receive a free drink with the lunch special and she certainly does not tell you to get the included drink from the cooler before you leave.
Food is always hot and has been properly cooked. The sweet and sour sauce they prepare is watered down and very liquid.
It is quick and easy for lunch if you want something rather quick but certainly not a stellar restaurant.

Very good cheap Chinese food.

Hope you never need a refund!
I used to go here fairly often, until today. The food was always mediocre at best, but it was super close to home, so it would suffice during a hang over. Today, I ordered sizzling rice soup and was really saddened to see that they included pork (which I do not eat) as well as shell fish without specifying that it would be included on their menu. Its not that I couldn’t eat something with shellfish. I could. But my face would swell up, obscuring my vision and I had just rented 3 movies from Red Box!
I wasn’t happy to have to drive back, but I’m also not happy when I spend $ 5.50 on poisonous chicken broth full of uncut vegetables and regular (not sizzling) rice.
The woman at the counter became very rude when I asked for a refund. She told me it was my fault for not asking what was in the soup, and I would take another soup home. She had a point, but she was being so vicious that I refused. I wanted my money back. Plus, the other soup had seriously struck out. Aside from not being able to tolerate shell fish, the soup was chicken broth and the vegetables in it were whole. The rice was not «sizzling rice», it was just normal. But the girl behind the counter yelled at me that I was wrong about that too.
I am really not sure why the woman was so hostile during the situation. It was actually kind of humorous, retrospectively. What wasn’t funny is that she handled my food and I hadn’t noticed on my first trip that she had filthy dirty hair with white flakes in it and wore no hair net. My next review is going to be directed to the MO Department of Health.
I have never had anyone be so rude to me. Ever. Five dollars doesn’t mean that much to me, but I didn’t want to let this woman bully me. She finally relented, gave me $ 5 and told me to never come back. In essence, they would rather have $ 5 than a satisfied, repeat customer.
I am going to look into whether or not a restaurant is obligated to report whether or not they use shellfish in a meal. I also once ordered cashew chicken there and they put peanuts in it. That could kill someone.

This is by far the best Chinese food in the area. You get great size portions of food, always fresh and staff speaks English.
Also the togo containers are reusable and you can microwave.
Love their sesame chicken, cashew chicken and potstickers.
They deliver also which is a plus.

I can’t tell if this is owned by the restaurant by the same name in Oakville… the crab rangoon was phenomenal, just like the one in Oakville. They offer large combinations. Sadly, this experience was not very good. The deliver took and hour fifteen minutes, despite being told it would take 30 minutes. The delivery driver did not carry change on her. The Bourbon Chicken was very dry, but tasted great. The crab rangoon was by far the best part. Try carry out.

Great food, big portions & good prices. The Kung Pao Chicken is great and the crab rangoon have just the right amount of crab & cream cheese for a takeout place.
