    Complete scam guys. We brought fresh seafood to this restaurant. They didn’t tell how much does the service fee and the fee for making it. The total amount came to 350 dollars and I brought all the food. We started to argue and they told us if you can’t afford it. They will call the police for not paying. Very bad attitude and trying to keep us from leaving after we paid the money.

    5 stars for the service and food! Now days it seems that wherever you go it's not up to expectations. Either it's the service or the food that seems to be suffering at most eateries. I didn't have high expectations going into this place but I was hungry and Key West is limited on the number of Chinese restaurants. We went just before the lunch special ended and paid about $11 each, not including drinks. Our soup arrived quickly and it was delicious! Shortly afterwards our food arrived hot and fresh. The food was very tasty and the portions were large! We had enough leftovers for dinner that night. If you're in the mood for some great Chinese food, give this place a try. You won't be sorry.

    This was the absolute worst experience of my life. The waiter immediately dropped the menus all over the place then dropped a glass full of ice on my lap and struggled to pick up the ice. It looked like I pissed myself while my autistic waiter waddled away. When the food was brought out ( orange chicken) it was grey. It tasted like dog food dipped in gasoline. I couldnt even finish my meal and the waiters took turns staring at my indian friend the entire time. I would not recommend anyone to ever go to this restaurant.

    today i decided to dine here as a tourist from Boston ma. i had went here with my sister and ordered a couple things off of the menu the service was okay, but when i was eating my egg roll the waiter had come over and took the sauce i was dipping into. and brought over to go boxes within a matter of 15 minuets of eating my meal. They were cleaning off the table before we had even indicated that we were finished eating or ready for the bill. I wouldn't recommend this restaurant solely based off of the fact that they like to rush their customers, in order to keep a flow of money from incoming consumers.

    We come from a country near China and grew up with lots of authentic Chinese food and this was extremely good authentic Chinese food!! the portions are amazing, prize is good (for key west) and taste was wonderful. The Egg drop soup is a must! They asked us about dietary restrictions immediately and that was very kind and considerate and a rare occurrence with restaurants in America.

    Will no longer be eating here . My 2 neices and myself came here a week ago to have dinner. When we came in. No one even bothered to ask if we were dinning in or getting take away. We were planning on dinning in like we always do . Anyway we sat there being ignored for almost 20 minutes!! So we left!! Most other times we've ate here we've been seated with in just a few mins of walking in. But not this last time And the place wasn't even crowded. So really no excuse for this.

    I didn't have any expectation but, let me tell you, the food was delicious, all staff was very friendly and the price no was too bad. They have a special combination for all day for $11.99 and $12.99. Is the next door to TJ Max or Publix. I don't know why the GPS shows a different way to get there. Good Luck 🤪.

    As a New Yorker, I’m a bit biased when it comes to Chinese food, but overall my experience here was great. Definitely not horrible Chinese food, but far from authentic. Still satisfied and would return if I have a craving.

    The food here is great and the portions are large and the staff are always fast and very sweet. I definitely think the food taste so much better when you dine in vs ordering it for takeout. I recommend their veggie fun lo mien(thin rice noodles),the veggie spring rolls, sweet & sour chicken, & crab rangoons! 😋

    Just had this place for the first time and it was excellent. Nothing fancy just good food. Delivery was extremely fast, driver was super pleasant, ordered online through their website portal. Just an FYI to anybody ordering online they will show up at your door with a credit card machine so you can pay with card or cash.

    I like the food, but even that could be a nice place to stay and enjoy your meal, the place feels like a to go place and the service too.

    What a great experience, good food, good friends, a must visit in Key West!

  • 2/5 Patrick S. 9 months ago on Google
    The food was okay and the price was reasonable. It seems like family ran and not trained staff as some of the chain restaurants would have. The big turn off was then they started mopping while we were eating. The smell was very strong way overwhelming. We were eating lunch at 1:30 on a Saturday which should be a busy time and not when you would mopping.

    I do not recommend this place. I order chicken wings and chicken fried rice. Our fry chicken wings had feathers still on it. Our rice wasn’t cooked. It was just nasty

    I enjoyed the food there, waitress was nice, prices a little high but nothing to complain about.

  • 1/5 cesar g. 1 year ago on Google
    Terrible experience!!!!! Food and service were awful. My girlfriend and I were unable to swallow more than a bite. When they saw we didn’t touch our food they asked if we needed a box. No concern for us as clients they said sorry u didn’t like it and continued to charge 56 bucks lol I left a tip and left. The family was eating at table behind us and sat back down and continued on I don’t recommend and won’t return.They didn’t believe me when I said food tasted bad and said they would try it and sorry.

    It was ok but we have definitely eaten better asian food. Staff were nice and order was ready fast.

  • 5/5 Gigi di r. 1 year ago on Google
    We normally go to sister noodle house as they have better reviews, but they were closed Easter night & we needed quick takeaway. China garden was open, so we gave them a go. Price was great, didn’t wait long, order was correct, portions were generous, food tasted fine, wouldn’t hesitate to come back next time. No dramas here.

    Recommended by fishing captain. Very friendly staff who went out of their way to prepare the fish in a couple different ways. They also gave my vegetarian wife three really tasty plates. Wood mushroom salad was uniquely good Ashley at the front was gracious, welcoming and friendly.

    I ordered happy family and beef and broccoli I have enough food for four dinners and I didn't even have beef and broccoli yet. I'll have that tomorrow but I have half of the happy family left. What I'd like to say about that dish is with all the different meats and vegetables each ingredient was cooked perfectly. This is no easy task when you have shrimp scallops beef chicken pork broccoli roast tomatoes mushrooms water chestnuts and yet each item was cooked just right nothing was overcooked or tough and nothing was undercooked. In fact I found it to be perfect.

    This was the best Chinese take-out we've had in decades! This place has absolutely ruined us for Chinese food in our home state. Be careful what you order because the servings are pretty big. We ordered what we'd consider to be a regular meal but had a lot of leftovers. The food was piping hot and delivered in what felt like 10 maybe 15 minutes at most. There's no way we're going back to key west and not eating here again..

  • 5/5 Josh D. 2 years ago on Google
    Favorite Chinese food over the past decade and a half! Their wontons are so good, my wife has dreams about them! 10/10 would recommend!

  • 1/5 Nancy P. 1 year ago on Google
    Last night’s delivery was very disappointing…General Tso's chicken so soggy and had no flavor and Chicken Curry didn’t even taste like Curry at all. Don’t know what happened but won’t be ordering again from here :(

  • 5/5 Diamien Hafner (. 1 year ago on Google
    Me and my friends eat here all the time everything on the menu is delicious and worth the price not to mention the survers are always on point and friendly

  • 5/5 Molly G. 2 years ago on Google
    My family and I just got delivery and the food was wonderful; well flavored and fresh…and hot! The service when I ordered was polite and made sure I knew the difference between lo mein and chow mein so I got exactly what I wanted. Best delivery ever!

  • 5/5 Hello W. 3 years ago on Google
    come here if you are looking for authentic chinese food! My German and Polish friends and I loved their food.

  • 5/5 Lawrence H. 1 year ago on Google
    Still the place hasn’t changed a bit from way back when I was child 🤣 let me remember 1996 or 97 ?? Food still look the same from the website. Haven’t visited Key west for 22 years . Not sure if the same owner is still there?? I hope I’ll visit the restaurant soon 🔜 with my Family. Love ❤️ too all
