King Garden

Better of the China places in New Castle County the General Tso was cooked just right and the sauce was pretty darn good!!! Very friendly people

Meat was a little overlooked in the chicken fried rice. The hot and sour soup was very good though. Will come back and give the restaurant another chance. Maybe I just ordered the wrong dish.

This was always our go-​to for chinese food. For years we were loyal. On my last visit the food was horrible. Dry and chewy and the pork boneless ribs were like sweetened beef jerky. Maybe they hired new cooks? Or maybe it’s under new ownership… I don’t know but it was so disappointing when you’re craving your favorite chinese food and you get it home and take a bite and blahhhhhhh… we called to let them know it wasn’t up to their usual standards but there was a bit of a language barrier and it was tough getting our point across. We did get an apology but no offer to fix the matter by offer a discount or free meal next time. Oh well. I guess all good things really DO come to an end after a while.

This used to be our go to for takeout. But last night, we were disappointed. We ordered sweet and sour chicken. The chicken was chewy and dry, the breading was insanely salty and soggy. It tasted re-​heated.
The tub of sweet and sour sauce was runny, and tasted like slightly sweetened tap water. Clearly watered down.

I’ve tried nearly every Chinese takeout in New Castle. King Garden was the last one on the list. I have to admit I was skeptical about the 5-​star rating but to my surprise, they do make the mark. I’d say it’s 4.5 stars and round up. The food is surprisingly good for Chinese takeout. Whereas other takeout places typically dish out that mediocre yellow fried rice, King Garden has fried rice that is brown, as it should be! I tried their Sesame Chicken and Pork Egg Foo Young, and both were far better than equivalent items at the average Chinese takeout. Plus, portions were ample. They really packed the food in and there was quite a lot of chicken in the Sesame Chicken so the bag was noticeably heavier than takeout bags from other places. And finally, service was good and pretty fast, although given how good the food was, we wouldn’t have minded if the Soup Nazi himself were stationed at the counter.

I love this place! Sooo freaking good! The dumplings are awesome! They’re always quick to finish my order.

The freshest egg rolls I’ve ever tasted. The Singapore Chow Mi Fun was absolutely delicious. I’ll be back again and again.
