Pine Tree Garden Chinese Restaurant

Really good for what you get! Their sesame chicken is outstanding! Frequent visitor and that won’t change!

Great food, great service! The cashew chicken is my favorite, always flavorful and cooked perfectly.

Underwhelmed is how I would best describe the meal. We had the crab rangoon and the fried rice with chicken. I asked for spicy and while the heat level was good, that was the only flavor I could taste. The egg roll that came with the meal was so salty that it was inedible.
Bottom line… it wasn’t even worth saving the leftovers.

I’d rate average but good Chinese food is hard to find around here. General Taos was delicious. Beef and broccoli was good. Fresh vegetables but just ok meat b

Service Good over phone. Ordered simple so I thought. If tasty is Salty well very tasty…

It was GREAT the soup was hot and tasted very good egg rolls the best I had in a long times and the cho cho chicken was really yummy. Staff was very friendly and my order was just finishing up when I arrived

LOVE THIS PLACE. It’s not the prettiest, but they get the job done right! The only reason I can’t give 5 stars, is the lack of delivery to my lazy bum!

After reading good reviews, and getting countless suggestions of this place, I finally decided to try this place. I love Chinese food, and it isn’t hard to find around the area. I feel my regular chinese place and I are in a rut, since they won’t take my VISA and I don’t always carry cash.
About the Food: I ordered the mixed fried rice, and an order of the crab (well…cheese) ragoon. The vegetables were obviously frozen. The meat was bland, and flavourless. If I wasn’t looking at what I was biting, I probably wouldn’t be able to tell the difference. (Including the shrimp.) The rice was hit or miss. Some bites were seasoned by sauce, while others tasted no different than steamed rice. I asked for hot oil and it, too, didn’t have much taste. The cheese ragoons were creamy, and that’s about it. No hint of crab, onion, or anything else, just a wonton wrapper folded in half, and overstuffed with cream cheese. The egg roll was nice and crispy, but had a taste like cinnamon or nutmeg, which I did not particularly enjoy. (²⁄₅)
About the Service: The people working here are very kind. They smile and interact with their customers, especially the regulars. They’re patient and don’t make you feel rushed. (⁴⁄₅)
About the Location: The interiour has decorative pieces that let me know it’s a chinese place, but overall it’s pretty dark. It could be cleaner, and less cluttered. It could also use brighter, warmer lighting. (²⁄₅)
Overall, this place ranks higher than Panda Express. It’s decent if you’re craving chinese, and it’s down the street. They also accept credit/​debit cards, so you can earn your 2% on restaurants and pay next month, because who has time for budgeting? The service is definitely fast and friendly. (³⁄₅)

New favorite place. Egg rolls are amazing, food is hot and flavorful without being greasy. The breading on the Gen Tso’s chix is light and crispy. Hostess remembered my family from a couple weeks before and is very nice.

This place has amazing egg rolls. General Tso’s chicken was fantastic: thin, crisp breading, not thick and chewy like so many other places. Even the available sauces were more than what is typically available. We will definitely be returning again!

My colleagues and I chose this restaurant for lunch, based on Unilocal and Trip Advisor evaluations. I regret that all four of us were truly disappointed. They and I love good Chinese food, I have enjoyed it regularly for decades in many different cities and in different countries. This place isn’t even average, it was simply poor quality food in a very average environment.
My pork lo mein was made with linguine noodles. Seriously, in the DFW area-​how hard is it to get proper lo mein noodles? The taste was below average, at best. I like to judge a restaurant by the quality of its hot and sour soup: their version was basically egg flower soup with the flex of chili. None of the standard ingredients of true hot & sour soup were present. A colleague ordered wonton soup as her entrée: she described it as diluted chicken broth with below-​average dumplings. No other ingredients were present.
The remainder of the food choices were equally poor. None of the four of us thought the food was even average and none of us would be willing to go back. Because the prices are not less expensive than other places, there isn’t anything to commend this restaurant.

I have to agree with most customers. The food was delicious (I ordered the Hunan chicken). Eggrolls are about the only thing I didn’t like due to sweet nes that throws it off. Service was fast and staff was very friendly and attentive.
I moved to mesquite about a year ago and was craving Chinese so I found another place that I’ve been going to. The food there is good but service could be better and they could smile a little more.
So I decided to look around and try another place. I think this might be my new favorite place. It’s yummy, fast and they have a drive through. Can’t wait to take my family there so we can order different plates and try a little of each.
Wish prices were a little better.

Good delicious food that is served hot and fresh. Not too oily or salty. Good egg rolls also

I am very picky about Chinese food. We have recently moved to Mesquite from Kansas City and I have yet to find a great chinese restaurant. The food was ok, the crab ragoon was mediocre and I was not a fan of the egg roll. But it seemed fairly fresh.

this place is really only just average. I gave the extra star because i watched them make their egg rolls, and not pull the from the freezer. This makes them an oasis in the middle of a desert of fast food joints. I had the vegetarian Lomein, the vegetables were crispy and fresh and the noodles were well done but the sauce was meh… Maybe some Sraracha or fish sauce would have helped, but there wasnt any to be had.

I been going to to Pine Tree Garden, for a couple of years now. I am a fan of the Shrimp Fried Rice. The food is not overly «Saucey», the rice has not been over cooked or gummy feeling. Most people pass right by the location, not knowing that it is a restaurant, because is is tucked away. But definitely recommended if you are in the area.

I went here because I was forced by an evil co-​worker who had no regard for my fear of non buffet Chinese restaurants. The food was great and very well priced. I received a very large plate that was very full of food. The people who work there were very nice. I will be going back!

Went here for lunch. The prices were good. The food could have been a bit more fresh. Lots of salt was added. The place needed to be cleaned as well. Overall for lunch i give it 4 out of 5. Drinks here were a expensive upsell all is good if you stick to the lunch menu. Portions were ok just wish the dood was fresh.

We eat here at least once a week. It is amazing. They make it as your order it, so if you like extra spicey-​done!
The staff is friendly and respectful.
Everything is good, but the PT Chicken is one of my favs.

Really good Combination Fried Rice!!!
Overall, a hidden «gem» in the area. I would highly recommend this place!
