New China Garden

Food is just ok. Nothing special BUT the real issue I had is I ordered a lunch special. I asked if they had brown rice they said yes. I said ok I’ll have brown rice instead of white or fried. Food was ready and about to leave that’s when she told me the cost it was $ 1 more for brown rice. ARE YOU KIDDING ME? I’ve never experienced that in my life. I told them that’s not right and I’m writing a negative review on Unilocal.I even showed her I review. She didn’t care. I told her I’m never coming back. Still didn’t care.
Never again

I pretty much agree with every other review. Overall average food. They’re always been nothing but nice to me but I must admit I did see them tell someone off just for asking for a cup of tap water to drink with their meal. They told him they don’t have water lol. He replied how can you possibly not have tap water if you need it to cook for the food. He had a point there. They just basically wanted him to buy a bottle of water.
Today we ordered three lunch specials (which they do offer everyday including weekends) for a total of $ 18 and it comes with 3 cans of soda. We got the twice cooked pork, general tso’s chicken, and shrimp and broccoli. All pretty standard meals. We asked to substitute one of them with brown rice instead of fried. They commented that they were «sold out» of brown rice. Sold out huh? At 12 in the afternoon when you literally just opened? It’s more likely that you never prepared any to begin with. We got white rice instead. I asked for vegetable fried rice with my meal. Their version of vegetable fried rice is lettuce, onion, and bean sprouts. That’s it! No carrot, peas or anything else.
I can’t front though, I did like the previous owners better and the food quality was better back then too.

Not sure how many owners there have been over the last few years, but the people working there now are horrible. They do not understand English well enough. They run out of food and cannot make slight variations in a dish. They charge 50 cents for hot oil. Never going back, food is not even good to begin with. Subpar Chinese take out. Go to Eastern on Parsons instead.

Local Chinese restuarant by my job, I stopped in for a seafood soup. While I enjoyed the soup I was a little pissed that I asked for no mushrooms in my soup and they still put mushrooms in my soup. The resturant seemed clean but I was nervous about the B letter grade that was in the window.

Average size take out restaurant. The food is okay, but the plus side to the okay food is the cheap prices. Only in queens can you get a lunch special for 4.85. Chicken and broccoli with white rice in a cart, and a free soda or soup is only 4.85! Sure, the environment doesn’t look super pleasant but at least it is cheap! Come here if you’re looking for a quick, cheap and okay tasting meal!
