I have been here many times..always happy. My daughter is in love with the sweet and sour chicken, and I am a huge fan of the General's chicken. Don't expect much from the decor (ack) or the service (what else you want? you done? ..total?? you want total???) but the food is what its all about. Never had a bad meal. I highly recommend this place..honestly it is the best Chinese in Wayne.

Been here a few times now, and always order the General Tso's Chicken. I come here usually after visiting Wayne Rec and just need to get something quick. After last night, don't think I'll be back for quite a while. After ordering General Tso's there 3 times, I thought there would be something redeeming in the taste that would make me come back for more - that's not the case, I believe my short term memory must be fading. Everytime, they say they can make it as spicy as I want, and each time I order it extra hot. Unfortunately, extra hot is less than mild. I have no clue what they are adding that they think makes it spicy, but it doesn't translate to the dish itself. The chicken soaked up all the sauce, and the rice was bland. The egg roll was good at best. After seeing some reviews bragging about the pot stickers, I decided to give them a try. The inside was great, but small, and the dough was thick and chewy. Not in the same class as my favorite, New Peking Pot Stickers at all. I started removing the meat inside from the dough and just ate that... Ugh. After 3x, that's enough for me. I'll stick with China Gate down the street in Westland for carry out... Hopefully I'll look at the reviews to see mine the next time I pull in the parking lot for a reminder....

This spot is... well a building and it has food. It's the 2.0 GPA of Asian food chains, basically you passed the class, and you may have had a few shining moments on an assignment or 2, but you definitely shouldn't feel good about yourself after. It gets the job done, but only if you're a lover of Chinese food, and go with the super basic options. I can't think of the name right now, but I'd recommend the establishment on Middlebelt (a little past Ford rd) on the East side of the street (right hand side if your driving North, Left hand side if you're driving south), food quality and preparation is on a whole different level at that restaurant which isn't too far away from anyone who would be considering going to China Garden, and while China Garden staff isn't rude, they're certainly not friendly, and seem more interested in their personal conversations than your business *** this review is based on a multitude of visits to this establishment not 1 single incident or bad experience (just a very average place)

Have any cats or dogs gone missing in the area. If they have they probably served them to you. Worst Chinese food I ever had.

Delicious! My husband and I have traveled from Southfield, and now we travel from Ypsilanti to come to this Chinese restaurant, it is by far The Best! The only downside is that it's freezing in the winter and hot in the summer if you do eat there, which we often do. They have four tables set up, and all the utensils, plates, etc. you need.

Honestly, we only ever get the General Tso's chicken. And it's good. I've ordered it extra spicy and they never seem to make it extra spicy, but it's inexpensive and still tastes good. Not built for eating in, but that's okay with me.

We have been this place for years. Best Chinese food in a town. Lunch Combo is reasonable and they give you PAKCED fried rice and plenty meat in a container. As a family of 4, we usually order 2 lunch and that's plenty actually. Sometime we order 3, so we can have left over on the next day. Staffs there are very friendly and their kitchen is clean. The restaurant manager was very nice when he was closing the restaurant but I had called my order without knowing he was closing. He made my ONE order and waited till I got there. It was way past his closing time. I was very thankful since I was starving and tired. I would recommend this place to anyone.

Typical stripmall restaurant. Located in the Rite Aid Plaza. They have a few eat in tables, but are mostly take out oiented. The menu is normal for what is offered in these restaurants. I tried the lunch special for $5 which was the chicken in garlic sauce w fried rice. It was a ton of food. Served up lightning fast and flavorful with crisp vegetables. The staff was friendly. I will stop back in when in the area.

Some of the best Chinese carryout in this area. The peppersteak is tender and full of veggies. And did I mention the potstickers!?!? They are not the run of the mill frozen ones, tender dough and the filling is delish!

Everything was fresh. Crab rangoons and egg rolls were especially good, as well as their house-made hot mustard. It was nice you could see the kitchen which looked very clean.

Guess my expectations got set a little high from the reviews. I was in town from Richmond, VA and was going to be spending much of the evening late in the office I was visiting in nearby Romulus. Had a hankering for some Chinese so went straight to Yelp that recommended a 10min trip to China Garden. Customer service was excellent, the place was clean, the food was fresh but the taste was just not there. I wasn't looking for anything fancy but was hoping for a something a bit more appealing. The egg drop soup was very bland and the eggroll seemed to be the frozen-to-deepfryer variety. But the Orange Beef held the biggest disappointment. While the portion was huge, it was a fried, gummy, oily, breaded mess. I ate three pieces at the office and pitched the rest along with half the soup. Again, perhaps non-fried items are better but my experience would not make me want to give a second chance.

Ordered hot and sour soup, sweet and sour chicken, and thin rice noodles with chicken. Generous portion of rice noodles; however, the rice noodles were bland and the thinly sliced chicken had a rubber-like texture. I pulled the chicken out and added Sriracha at home.

This place isn't anything special but it isn't bad either. I have eaten here many times but only for lunch. The food is good, reasonably priced, and fast. I would recommend this place and it's lunch specials but don't expect anything fancy.

It's carry out only,but it's the best Chinese food in the area. The prices are low and the food is plentiful. If you go you must try the fried won ton. Always get the combo meals! You will have enough left over for another meal the next day! Our favorites are the house special lo mein,general tso chicken, and sesame chicken.

The popularity of Chinese food in America can be adjudicated by the appearance of China Town in many major cities in the United State of America. The popular trend of ordering or opting for Chinese take away food isn't unknown in America. Chinese take away food comes to rescue when you're too tired from work or too exhausted to cook. No one can resist the temptation of eating spicy noodles, shrimp, chicken, beef or pork cooked in the sweet and spicy sauce. The cooking method of authentic Chinese food is a lot different compared to what is served in America.
Generally, Chinese use dark meat small bones and organs to cook dishes but this changes when you are eating American-Chinese fusion food prepared using white boneless meat cooked with broccoli, carrots and onions. Back in China, the food is less spicy and oily as they favor steaming and braising method for cooking the most popular dishes. So, if you have a taste for authentic Chinese food, then try finding a real Chinese restaurant in the city. You can also try the most popular fusion Chinese food like Pecking Duck, Chicken Feet, Hot Pot, Shrimp Dumpling Soup, Mapo Tofu, Wontons, Chop Suey, Egg Rolls and not to forget Fortune Cookies.
There are not many restaurants in America serving authentic Chinese food. A little research on Restaurant Listings directory can help you locate the best Chinese restaurants in the city. Chinese cuisine is continuously evolving, and you can find a variety of dishes categorized as the food for lactose intolerant, gluten intolerant, vegan, vegetarian, and diabetic friendly. So, if you have a group of friends with different taste patterns, save the hassle and visit the nearest Chinese restaurant in your city.
