My sister suggested this place for takeout. When we arrived, my sister went in to pick the food up. We noticed that that the people that were preparing the food were wearing gloves and masks however, the woman in the front that was packing the food up, was not. Wearing gloves. Some people May be sensitive about things like that. That being said, the food was actually very good and the prices were reasonable. Thanks read more

Ive been here a few times...usually not to bad but tonight, 27$ for sweet and sour chicken combo and boneless ribs...they both tasted like they had been cooked in burnt oil or somethint BURNT...the aftertaste is terrible...I know they have done better so I rate them a 2.5/5 but tonight they were a 1 and I dont plan on going back ...1 for taste, 1 for price - they dont even ask free soda or egg roll- they just give u the egg roll that taste bad. The rice has nothing in it. Maybe 4 pieces of pork..no veggies..no onion...no egg- just boring yellow rice. Very disappointed. Goodbye Chen. Goodbye little boy always stuck to sit there bored. Goodbye burnt food. read more

Chen's Garden II - Sweet & Sour Chicken, B-B-Q Boneless Ribs - Chinese Near Me - Staten Island, New York

This place is genuinely just disgusting. I dont know how people even eat here, the people are so mean and the food is always too salty or bland, never right. Won't ever come here again. read more

Always fresh! Good reasonably priced Chinese take out food. We love the egg rolls, vegetable dish and general tso's chicken!

So I've been ordering food here for the last 10 years I made an order for delivery then changed the order to pickup because i new i wouldn't make It back in time. They winded up delivering the food and no one was there obviously because i told them i want to pickup, so i go there to pickup my food and they told me they through my food out because they did the delivery and no one was there and they waisted there time and there money on product , they refuse to make new food for me and refuse to take my orders. They now block my calls. This place is a joke. You just lost a customer for 10 years and a lousy 15$ food order over your front desk people not understanding English well enough and you want to act like it's my fault. Unreal, maybe there rich and don't need me as a customer - very nasty people read more

Not much to add about this place but this little unassuming Chinese food spot is pretty good. My family has been ordering from this place for years and they've never been disappointed. Ive been inside recently and they aren't too dirty or sketch. You'll get solid dishes here. General Tso's, Egg Rolls, Fried Rice, you cant go wrong. If you're nearby and need Chinese food give em a try for a quick and cheap meal. read more

Chen's Garden II - Chinese Near Me - Staten Island, New York

The amount of money my family has spent here is infuriating. We have been loyal customers since moving here 3 years ago. Literally never even bothered to try another place and ordered from Chen's almost once every week. The way I was treated by staff today as a result of their poor business mistakes (everyone makes mistakes, but the way you handle them is what is important) tells me all I need to know about how I will spend my money going forward. When you are over 30 minutes late with a scheduled order AND not answering your phones so the delivery company cancels your order, the restaurant gets mad when their driver delivers to us anyway? I'm not sure what you'd do with returned food and that's something I'm questioning about this place now too, but to know that that's what you'd prefer to do with cold, soggy food, rather than making it right tells me everything I need to know to determine where business will go to going forward. I've always done delivery from here and only picked up in person about 2 times in the past. Those two times were unpleasant experiences from staff working there. Like, when you walk in, say hi? Look up? Respond to the person saying hello as they walk in? IDK, maybe that's just me lol. I let that slide because I tend to give the benefit of the doubt. Tonight, I realized I was right and should not have given the benefit of the doubt. These people are not worthy of my business. I will NOT support nasty people. Do yourself a favor and find a place that is built upon good people. It matters. read more

Discovered a gem of a take-out Chinese restaurant. If you get past the outward appearances, you'll appreciate this place. This was my first time here. I was hungry looking for something to fill me up before soccer practice and I found Chen's Garden in a shopping plaza nearby the Owl Hollow fields. I got the lunch special - Roast Pork Broccoli. Comes with Pork Fried Rice and a choice of soup or a can of soda. I opted for the Wonton soup. It was amazing and just hit the spot. The Pork Broccoli was on point too; I put two duck sauce packs over the pork and broccoli and one soy sauce pack over rice and it made the meal complete. The mustard sauce for the soup. I can't believe I just discovered this. And they are good people, trust me, I can tell. If you don't believe me, I dare you to go and see, and give Chen Garden some of your love and support y'all. read more

Chen's Garden II - Roast Pork Broccoli and Wonton Soup - Chinese Near Me - Staten Island, New York

Chens garden is amazing. Always fresh and customer service is great. Been ordering for yrs .

Food was delicious, everything I ordered was made to perfection. Chicken was well done& sesame chicken was crispy. I tried a lot of Chinese foods on Staten Island and so far this is the best Chinese food in Staten Island . They open late. The price was surprisingly good too for the quality and portions of food i got . I highly recommend. read more

Ok so I order food for four which means 4 eggrolls come with your order, they will not give u 4 small duck sauce only allowed 2. I get it if I ordered for 2. Was a family special for four. Totally disgraceful as I can go sit in a Chinese restaurant any where and get as much as I want for free. 50 cent charge per tsp of duck sauce. Food decent but horrible customer svc. Will not order extra duck sauce from them based on principle. No exceptions no matter how much u spend they charge 50 cents for a teaspoon of their watery duck sauce. If u can't accommodate me for a matter of Pennie's I will go to oriental plaza where they send u a pint of duck sauce and giant bag of fried noodles FREE FREE FREE! Goodbye read more

This is my go to take out spot. Always delicious! I love their fried rice. I go out of my way to order from here rather than the spot by my house for sure read more

Update 2: I've been getting them more consistently now making sure to always order over the phone and they always come on time with the food hot and tasty so I'm giving them another star. Can't beat white meat chicken read more

Four SeasonsFried Chicken Wings Pork Fried RiceAlways on point. The star of the show was their wonton soup.

Chen's is a fast serving above average quality neighborhood Chinese-American take out restaurant. The food can be quite good at times particularly for lunch, but can taper off in quality closer to closing time although this is to be expected with any restaurant. The lunch specials and combos are reasonably priced, with lunch coming with choice of soup or soda of which I opt for the hot and sour soup coming with generous portions of tofu, chicken and veg. Service is very quick with orders usually finished within ten minutes. If you are in the neighborhood looking for a quick bite of some good Chinese I would recommend giving Chen's a chance. read more

Screwed up my order. Blamed it on me. Stuff missing from the bag and was told they will make it up to me next time. My wife told me she used to eat from this place so I gave it a shot. It's garbage. The rice was bland and the chicken was rubber. After 5 pieces I bit into a slimy piece of chicken in the sesame chicken and that was the end of dinner. read more

If you like general tso, you should like the one here. It has a nice spice to it, but it's pretty mild. The location is unassuming and tucked into a corner by woods. read more

The General Tso Shrimp is some of the best I've ever had. As someone who only eats fish, I tend to look for this dish everywhere I go and very few Chinese restaurants on Staten Island make it, or make it as good as Chen's Garden. I just wished they would've put scallions on it because the recipe usually calls for it. However, it was fresh and the portions are huge for the price. I then ordered their fried jumbo shrimp appetizer. I was so satisfied with the quality of the shrimp, the breading and the volume of portion, for just under $7. Last but not least, their Spicy Chili Shrimp is to die for. For $13 you get a ton of medium sized shrimp, in a carmelized pepper, onion, and carrot medley smothered in one of the most delicious spicy and sweet chili pepper sauces I've ever had. read more

When I used to live in Staten Island, this was our go-to Chinese place (and still is for mt parents and brother). Our store used to be right next to this restaurant, so we'd order here every Saturday when my brother and I had to come to help out at the store. We've ordered probably every item on the menu at least once. The food here is pretty darn good. Their fried chicken wings are the best I've ever had. The people are super friendly and they're like family to us. The location is pretty tiny/cramped with limited seating, but pretty much everyone takes their food to go or gets it delivered. The portions are always generous and everything is made to order. I'd definitely recommend this place for take-out (: read more

Chen's Garden. Excellent Chinese food. I haven't order anything off the menu that wasn't scrumptious. Their menu is large and had all the favorites cooked to perfection with an amazing flavor. Some favorites Steamed Chicken Mix Vegetables Garlic Sauce on side, Four Seasons, Beef and Spinach Soup. Let's not forget the wonton soup great!!! The phone is always ringing means they must be doing something right. Only negative is that chef gardens location the strip mall location is under renovation and the business sign isn't up other then a paper one in the window. A+ otherwise. I will be a continuing customer. read more

Great food and even better prices! I've never had a bad experience in the past year I have been ordering. Every time I call to place an order I am treated kind and with respect. I 1000% recommend! read more

My favorite Chinese take-out restaurant. They have the best wonton soup ever. Everything tastes fresh and they seem to use a lot less oil compared to other Chinese restaurants in the area. Seriously, try the wonton soup. read more

Definitely one of the better Chinese places on Staten Island. I would suggest the c"crispy orange beef" very good, also the crab Rangoon's are great. read more

I wish I could give them zero stars. They never get the order right, the food is not good and are so rude on the phone. In a last second decision we decided to order. The guy that picked up the phone was nasty and kept yelling at me. Halfway through the order I gave up. Never again. read more

I can't understand inconsistentcy of this place ; either it's the taste quality or the portion quantities the problem!! I ordered a pint of roast pork w mixed vegetables- tasted very good- PROBLEM- when I opened container I quickly noticed that portion was a lot smaller ; actually looked like cook tried to spread portion to reach empty corners of the container, what happened to packing a full container? I'm no stranger to good & generous Chinese food in NY!! Mistake on kitchens part to try and make fools out of regular customers for 15 years; TOTALLY THANKLESS to their PATRONS!!! read more

I always order here. Comparing to other places they have really good Chinese food! I love them. They are well cleaned and for take out it is always packed nicely! Will definitely recommend! read more

Good value for the price. Better than another place (******) we used to go but went down hill. Switched and happy with it.

So I have been ordering from this place for a while and I was shocked when this happened to me recently. I ordered the lunch special which already comes with a soup and I ordered an extra soup and egg roll on the side, which didn't come in the order, it was on the receipt too. I called them up and they said "oh yea we forgot egg roll, we send it to next time" but when I asked them about the soup they said they gave me the soup and lied that the lunch special doesn't come with soup has been that way. Im not stupid I have been ordering there for LONG. I have not ordered from there since, dont bother with a place who dont respect their loyal customers. read more

So I used to deliver Chinese back in my late teens & early 20s. When I quit, I used to only go back there to order from because I knew they're clean. I tried Chen's & got hooked right away. Good food, good prices & delivery is pretty quick. I keep going back and forth between here & where I used to work. The only gripe I have is the dude who works the registers & takes orders. He's pretty arrogant & doesn't pay attention to half the things you ask or request. Four times in a row he's screwed up something on my order. Mind you, they were all walk-in orders, not over the phone, so some things might get misunderstood. The first two times I asked for brown rice instead of white...got home, opened up white rice. But whatever, no big deal, right..? Next order I asked to add a can of soda. I put the order in my car & double check because I didn't see him go to the fridge.. Soda wasn't there. I walk back in & say sorry you forgot the soda, so he opens the fridge, grabs it & puts it on the counter & walks away. Sorry to inconvenience you for forgetting part of my order. The last time I went, last week, I only ordered 2 things and asked for a spring roll instead of an eggroll with my combo. Once again, I get home, and it's not what I asked for. That guy needs to work on his customer service skills, learn how to talk to paying customers, & stop being a prick. If not for him, they'd get a higher rating. read more

"We have ordered from this restaurant the second time and I love the food and the service they put out. The owner of the restaurant was very nice and friendly towards the customers so I personally had a good experience with her. The food had excellent quality along with the texture. The taste of the food was freshly cooked with excellent taste and texture. Overall, it was a satisfying dinner with my two sons" Thank you guys. read more

I never really thought to go into this place since it's on the other side of the island from me, but now that I've tasted their food, I have to say I'll be going over there a lot more! I didn't really order anything complex, just the pork fried rice and an order of wonton soup. What I had, however, was excellent. Everything was very well cooked, and they didn't skimp out on the meat in the wontons like most other Chinese restaurants. The rice was not dry at all and it was extremely flavorful. The service in the place was prompt, and the people behind the counter were very friendly. The place seemed much cleaner than most Chinese restaurants on the island. I'll definitely be going back here the next time I'm in the area! read more

Food is always fresh and delicious!! The crab rangoons And spare ribs are fantastic!!

This place is going down hill fast. It has a B rating and I won't be surprised if it get's a C rating quickly. I'll tell you how disgusting and non customer oriented this place is. I ordered a broccoli with garlic sauce and as they were packing it the girl behind the counter dropped it on the floor. and the plastic cracked underneath the container and she picked it up off the floor and continued to pack it. I asked her ,if it cracked and she said no. I got home and opened the container to find the contents falling out of the hole on the bottom. I knew she saw the hole but proceeded to give it to me in that inedible condition.... Disgusting. I will never trust them again. All she had to do was to make another one for me. Never again!!!! read more

Excellent, fresh, Chinese food. You cannot go wrong regardless with what you order. Definitely my go to and favorite Chinese restaurant. Also, delivery is the quickest I have experienced as well as pick up. read more

Writing this as I sit on the toilet, worst Chinese food I ever ate in my life. The chicken didn't even taste like chicken, they had a B rating on the door I was a little skeptical to begin with but said let me give it a shot anyways, boy do I wish I didn't. My stomach is killing me, foot tasted terrible! Avoid this place by all means unless you have a good plumber and don't mind bad food. read more

My favorite take out Chinese on Staten island. Fast delivery and good food. There's no where to sit to eat in so just order delivery you won't be disappointed read more

This could be the best Chinese food on SI. And I judge that on every account aside from the fact that it's a take-out place with 3 tables. Chen's is the Arden Heights shopping center in a location that's been home to a Chinese Food spot for decades. Even still, the fact that it's hidden means that it gets terrible exposure. You might not know about this place even if you live in the area. To get right to it, they are always friendly and there is always self serve tea which is really nice. They also make the best wonton soup around. I actually think that it's the best i've ever had. Nobody really comes close. The house special fried rice and lo-mein are also very delicious. Never oily, and the fried rice is brown and flavorful like it should be. They also use good white meat chicken and nice, fat shrimps. I also recently ordered the mei-fun for my picky gf. She loved it. They cooked the rice noodles perfectly. Lastly, the prices are great when compared to other places in the area. If you're not sure where to find this hidden gem, it's a few stores down from the old Clubhouse bar (now called Ten-Four). 5*s based on food quality alone. My only advice, guys, is to lose the styrofoam plates. read more

Ok its seems to better maybe because they know me. They dont screw up my order as much and the foods consistent

For the last 6 years I would have given 4 stars but as of this past month I only give one star. Did they change owners ? So disappointed. This was the only place aside from Empire Sezuahan I'd ever have ordered from but my last order was terrible. Worse than that was how the owner treated me I had a delivery of 2 large wonton soups. Their soup was the best. But my last order was bad. The wontons were sour tasting. Like they may have been improperly refrigerated or sitting out in the heat. They were inedible. The bags of fried noodles were stale. I was just getting over a bad flu and was dying for their soup. I called the restaurant to tell them the soup was bad and they said I could come there to return it. I said I ordered take out and paid a $5 gratuity to the driver for the convenience of not having to leave my house. They asked what I wanted and I said I would br happy with only a credit for the soup for my next order I didn't expect them to redeliver new soup. Just for a credit on next order. The person on the phone said I could not get a credit. He said the owner said I could only come into the store to return it that night. I asked him to ask the owner if he really wanted to lose a long time customer over $9.50. He came back on the phone and said the owner said it's ok if he loses a customer. Lmao. I guess he must do very well there to act so pompous but I feel that alone will stop me from ever ordering again from them. How can they justify not offering a credit for rancid food ? Especially to a long time customer. Bad business. Bad attitude. Ione less customer . read more

They have a friendly staff and the food is the best Chinese food take out in Staten Island. The wonton soup there is absolutely the best! I always order the chicken teriyaki because it's delicious! read more
