    I am the only Asian at this Chinese restaurant. Same as last night at the Japanese restaurant. Weird. Anyway, food is good for non-Asians, the portion is big and the price is reasonable. The restaurant is clean and the waitresses are nice. I am going to give it 4 stars. BUT honestly as a native Taiwanese, the food is so so to me. I probably won't eat there again. I am so happy that I am going back home to California tomorrow. Yay!

    Very good Chinese food and the staff and service was outstanding. Some of the best Chinese food I have ever had.

    Always a good meal. Everyone will find something that suits their tastes. Personal favorites are the curry chicken and the walnut shrimp! One spicy, one sweet, both incredibly good.

    Off the beaten path enough to be quiet (we went in the heart of summer tourist season) and fresh Chinese food worth the hour and a half drive to Taos, this is where it's at. We had the Mongolian chicken and the general tso's chicken, both were delicious, huge portions and reminiscent of the most authentic chinese food I've had n in Seattle. The service was excellent, friendly and quick and the prices were fair. I'll definitely be back for more.

    So my boyfriend and I headed over to Yu Garden after reading its stunning Yelp reviews, but were unfortunately rather underwhelmed. The food was actually pretty good, but the service was surprisingly lacking - I don't know if we caught them on an off day or what? Firstly, they were obviously understaffed, so I was able to sympathize with that. There was essentially this one tall, dark-haired, skinny guy running around to every table, looking pretty stressed out. Thing is, he began by pulling up a chair and sitting at our table when taking our order..maybe this is a progressive waiting style? Okay, cool, I'm fine with that, I guess. Next, he brings us a pretty limited menu, primarily consisting of Bento Box options. When he returns to take our order, he only then informs us that they do not serve any Bento Box options on Sundays, and he was not the least bit apologetic about it. Why would you distribute a menu that's essentially void for that day and not inform the customer? Anyhow, my order comes in after my boyfriend's and I ask if I could please have a pair of chopsticks. I realize he was busy, but it became apparent after awhile that he'd completely forgotten about me, so I asked the busboy and he got some for me right away. My boyfriend was already done with his meal by this point, and I was about halfway through mine, obviously still eating, and the waiter approaches me asking to box my food. To make matters worse, my boyfriend had diarrhea the rest of the evening after ordering the orange chicken =/ I don't doubt that this is a pretty reputable establishment given their strong reviews, and I do think that perhaps we just caught them on an off day? Maybe this waiter is new, but he could use some improvement or they could also hire more servers.

    I took some visiting friends from China here to lunch. The next day they asked to go back for dinner. Need I say more?

    We had the spicy eggplant. The vegetable were cut too large. More difficult to eat. But the flavors were delicious. A sweet spicy flavor. Service was friendly and prompt. We recommend this comfortable good Chinese restaurant. Thanks for reading. The Bike Chaplain

    I love this authentic Asian eatery! The staff alone makes this an awesome restaurant for ambience and the food is delicious. What began as a Christmas sabbatical in Taos quickly evolved into a snowed-in situation so I ate here several times. I'm a recent widow and eating out alone is slightly depressing for me but the family oriented staff was so welcoming. My favorite dish the Shrimp & Walnuts in Orange sauce. Also the Teriyaki beef. Oh and the Hot Cooking Seafood Pot. Just go!

    Best Chinese food is Taos IMHO. Conveniently located next to Hunan, so If there's a 40 min wait there you should give Yu Garden a try

    Very nice Chinese restaurant in Taos. Simple menu, no-nonsense service. Quick orders, quick delivery to your table. Maybe not the most exciting entrées but good and healthy (seeming). Great inexpensive prices. Definitely will be a regular place now that we live in Taos.

    A friendly, family-run restaurant in a strip-mall south of town, Yu Garden has excellent food at reasonable prices. We tried the mongolian lamb, Mu-shu pork, and sweet and sour chicken, and all of them tasted wonderful and were clearly made with fresh and high-quality ingredients. Fried potstickers were good and although the hot and sour soup was not as sour as many I have tried, it was still eminently drinkable (eatable?). Anyway, go eat there if you are in Taos.

    Finally, Chinese in Taos. Lots of great stuff here. Especially love the Tofu hot plate (also chicken), delicious, great sauce. Kung Pao Beef - YUM. They understand gluten free and food allergies. Amanda is really helpful. Our friends love the Mongolian Beef. Always fresh veggies.

    I really wanted some vegetables after five days of New Mexican food. This place got high marks on Yelp, so I figured "how bad could it be?" We arrived around 5:30pm, and there were only a couple of tables occupied- yes, we were "early birds". The place is small, has a typical strip center feel, but its not off-putting. Soon we were greeted by Amy, who was very helpful, quick, and personable. This sit the kind of person you want working the front of the house if you have a restaurant. She knows how to make people feel welcome, valued. She will generate return business. Moving on to the food- we ordered a vegetable platter, and Orange Chicken, and up-sized them both with the full meal deal (see back page of menu). We each had a bowl of soup- hot and sour and egg drop, both excellent, followed by wanton, fried shrimp and egg rolls. Again, all were excellent. I could eat a mess of that shrimp! The entrees arrived timely, and hot. Both were excellent. The Orange chicken had small strips of orange peel - perfect! Could have used a few more pepper pods. Throughout, Amy continued to check on us, fill our request for chili sauce, water, etc.... Soon the owner (one of the owners? I am not sure) who goes by Amanda came to check on us. She is Asian- Chinese I am betting- and is also personable. She wanted to know how we heard about Yu Garden, and I showed her Yelp on my phone. She was amused to read through some of the reviews, as I guess she was unaware of Yelp. She pointed out she had a certificate of recognition from Trip Adviser. She also told us she started in Angel Fire, but it was too seasonal there. Business is good for her here. I am so glad, as I typically eat Chinese, Thai, or some sort of Asian at least once a week, and I needed a fix. I expect to return before this trip is over, and I suggest you give it a try. I cant go 5 stars just because of the atmosphere being a bit stark, sterile, and could have been a bit cleaner- which has to be difficult in Taos for sure, it is so rustic here and your always trudging through dirt and gravel wherever you go.

    After a full day of driving from Flagstaff, AZ, I was not in the mood to go searching for food. Yu Garden was literally next door to the hotel, although it was close to 8 on a Sunday night the staff was very inviting, after perusing through the menu we settled on a few things. Beef vegetable, shrimp fried rice, miso soup, egg drop soup, and Taos sushi roll! Yummy! Quick service! Large portions, big enough for a family of 3, for sure! Will definitely share my experience with others. Mahalo nui Loa!

    Average food. My Dad was happy with his General Tso's chicken which appeared to be ONLY chicken; however, my fried rice was bland and lacking any flavor -- soy, sesame, green onion or otherwise.

    Mushu pork was fantastic, tortillas a little dry, but definitely worth it. Maybe best Asian food I've had in America - I've had a lot! Chicken fried rice pretty bland, but alright Had a tuna sushi roll - horrible and bland - other sushi looked better but didn't try it Service was pretty bad and inattentive Despite all this, it was really good and I do recommend it

Chinese Cuisine

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.
