    Eagerly awaited for this place to open, but much to my disappointment, this "garden" did not bear much fruit. I understand that this place is not fully opened yet and that they are trying things out, but it was just bad. My friend went last week and said that the menu had dim sum and that it was pretty good, so as a dim sum fan I went there for that purpose. I couldn't find dim sum anywhere on the menu even though they advertised itself to have dim sum. When I asked them if they had dim sum or dumplings they said that they don't. I mentioned to them that my friend had been there just a week ago and he had those items and they told me that the menu is changing since they are testing foods and that they don't have those for me today. I am ok with that, but then they said that my friend must've went before 2pm since they had it then and not for dinner, which is a lie because my friend had went for a late dinner. I ordered just a few dishes with my brother, general tsos, chow fun noodles, and fried rice, with a soup. The food was just OK. We get the check and the two dishes were 17.99 and 12 dollars for the fried rice. Everything came out to $60 bucks with tax, I could have eaten like a king elsewhere and we were leaving hungry. The worst part of all and why this place is getting 1 star, is that as we were eating the waiter brings all these steamed dim sums and dumpling dishes and all the items that I asked for to the table across from me... I politely asked the waitress why she told me that they don't offer that for me and they brought it to them and she panicked and said "ughhh.." then she started to talk to me in what sounded like Cantonese, even though I don't speak the language, and finished off with "they are a special table I don't know I don't know I don't know you ask the boss" and ran away from me... Basically there is a whole other secret menu from what I gather but in order to be able to choose from it you have to be Asian as was the family that was enjoying everything she told me I could not. #NoDimSumForYourKind #IdontknowIdontknow

    Food was very good. Not unbelievable but very good and fresh. Dishes were not over seasoned or glistening with oil like you see at the "typical" Chinese restaurant. The shrimp dumplings were outstanding. While I've read a lot of reviews about bad service that was certainly not our experience. We had terrific service. This isn't the dim sum resto like you see in NYC where carts come around and you pick- it's more like a regular menu with dim sum sized portions. Decor was very nice and clean like previous reviewers mention. Parking very easy. We brought elementary-school age kids who were well-behaved but we didn't feel rushed or unwelcome in any way. A solid 4-stars from us.

    Food is ok, better than Silver Pond. Note to the chef, please go easy on the salt, everything was on the salty side. The bill came to almost $50 for 2 ppl for dimsum---next time I'm heading to Flushing.

    Delicious, authentic Chinese dim sum. Extremely friendly and helpful staff. Highly recommended!

    Have you ever gone to a restaurant that perhaps didn't have the greatest location, but the food, service and atmosphere were amazing? This ISN'T that place. I visited Lan Garden yesterday (Sunday Sept 21) with my kids and my girlfriend. It's located on Route 46 in Ridgefield, nestled between a corporate park, a Hampton Inn, a truck repair shop, and looks out onto Route 46. Not exactly picturesque, but hey, it is what it is. I'd never been there before, but I was told that the restaurant opened in mid-summer. Even though it is September, they are still in their "soft opening" phase. They do not have their liquor license yet, so you'll have to forgo having a cocktail. Despite it being a newly opened, the place sorely lacks energy and passion. Our waiter was very timid, offering no tips or advice. All of the staff seemed almost intimidated and untrained. The menus look like they were printed in the back room and put into a plastic binder. I had General Tso's chicken, which was actually quite good, however, if you'd like rice with it, it's extra. I don't think I've ever been to a Chinese restaurant where rice wasn't included with most dishes. Struck me as odd. My girlfriend ordered Ginger Beef, which had no ginger flavor to it at all and was more like peppered steak. (again, no rice with that) My sons each ordered beef and chicken lo mein, which were average in flavor, although large in portion size. Nothing about this place was astounding or exciting in any way. Beyond the average fare, I guess I was most surprised by the lack of excitement or buzz. One would think that the wait staff, manager, owners and/or chef would be making an effort to come out and try to create a feeling of excitement or passion, but it was not to be. Also, the prices are pretty high. $16 for Gen'l Tso's, sans the rice. I guess it's great if you're on a low carb diet. ;-) Part of me thinks I might try it again in 5 or 6 months, but judging from the empty tables and lack of enthusiasm, I doubt it will be around that long.
