China Garden

Been there several times for sit down or take out. Always good food and service. Best Crab Rangoon anywhere!

Your typical abundant Chinese food places are usually all the same quality.
This place I would say is below average Chinese food, which isn’t saying much. Mostly edible at best, but nothing to get excited about.

I am visiting my family in Maine for christmas. There were about 12 of us looking for dinner on christmas eve. We ordered from China Garden on a recommendation and ordered 9 entrees and 6 appetizers.
Absolute letdown.
When we arrived home with the order we dug through the bag only to find NO RICE! I called the restaurant to let them know about the error and they said that entrees do not come with rice. I’ve never been to a Chinese restaurant that had such a policy. Not only did that information not appear on the menu, but rice does not appear on the menu AT ALL. Nor did the person I placed the order with ever say, «would you like some rice with that?»
How can you sell a hundred dollars in chinese food and not think to *offer* rice at the very least? I’m flabbergasted.
Egg rolls came with no duck sauce. MuShu was nothing but sauteed cabbage and came with no hoisin sauce (or any other sauce). The food in general was edible but bland.
And just to rub it in, we got only five fortune cookies for the entire order. I certainly won’t be returning and I know none of my local family will be either.
