I for one quite like this fine Astablishment. This fine place has delicious food. I for one think that this place may be one of the best. The people here are just so kind and they aren't mean. The place is pretty I suppose read more

I have came back for countless time. The food is really delicious, my friends and I enjoy it very much (I even eat all the sauce in the plate), they serve food efficiently and politely, it is clean and bright there. The chef talk to us about their family, that's really a sweet family!!! There's not too much Chinese restaurant in Ottawa, this is the best one!!! Try it out, I m sure you can find your favorite dish and make friends here. read more

China Garden - The chicken fried rice is amazing!!! - Chinese Near Me - Ottawa, Ohio

Good food and great service! Egg foo young and sesame chicken were delicious. Also had egg drop soup and wonton soup, both were very good. I would also reccomend the egg rolls. Overall it was a good experience. read more

We went here because Panda Express still doesn't have a dine in option from covid. Restaurant was really clean waitress was a delight. Was awesome to see they still have a lunch special on Saturdays til 3 pm. For $7.95 you got a entree, rice, egg roll, tea and soup. The wonton soup was wonderful. Had the orange chicken that didn't have a ton a flavor so will probably try something next time. Kids had sweet and sour and really liked it. Will defiantly repeat! Much better than Panda Express. More than I could eat for sure! read more

Very clean and friendly place for great Chinese food. I had the lunch sized Generals chicken and was satisfied. Came with a egg roll for $6.25 plus drink. I have had the other place in town and its kinda scary what your eating there. This is where ill be eating next time I'm in town. read more

See all

My favorite restaurant of all time... every time I'm visiting Ottawa (home), I get China Garden. The dark brown sauce is unmatched and has a more authentic taste... emperors chicken unbreaded is my favorite dish, but you really can't go wrong with anything on the menu. The egg roles are also my favorite. Add this to your dinner or takeout plans! read more

Chinese food in Ottawa, Ohio? If you're looking for an option in the area that isn't pizza, your local American fare restaurants, or fast food; China Garden is a good pick. It's had some staying power in the area. Admittedly, Chinese food is my least favorite fare, so my ordering at a place like this tends to be on the safe side. Their lunch menu seems to consist of breaded chicken pieces in a variety of sauces-but for $6.15 you can get a soup, plate of chicken and rice and an egg roll; not bad in my book. They will also make dishes without MSG upon request, which is what makes this Chinese food doable for me. Service is great-friendly, attentive. They also have quite a bit of seating space. The next time you natives come home, check it out (because we all know, you're not coming to Ottawa for the Chinese). It is a good place to meet those high school friends for a quiet lunch to catch up. read more

It's okay food. The quality and consistency is not there. Very unsure of the flavor in some of their dishes since they do not compare to other Chinese restaurants. read more

I absolutely love this place. One of my favorite Chinese dishes is beef egg foo young and it's very rare that I find a place that makes it well. This place does an excellent job with their dishes and the portions sizes are generous. read more

It's a very good place to eat usually get their Mongolian beef or pepper steak fried rice and your eggroll wonton soup that's enough to fill you up read more

Their food is always very fresh. Haven't had a bad dish yet. Not a fan of their egg rolls. They have the healthiest menu choices in the area that actually have great flavor - seafood noodle soup and steamed chicken and broccoli are outstanding. Service can be hit or miss, just depends on who's waiting that day. Portion sizes are good, especially for the price. read more

3/17, ordered food 20 minutes before dining in. My friend and I waited another 15 minutes before they brought our food out. Food is good, just get on top of your orders fam. read more

Im being nice by putting 3 stars really... Years ago this was my go to! the best generals chicken, YUMMY! and there sweet and sour sauce I'm thinking really home made! never had anything better! But times goes by.... and by... and by... the place is going to hell! I loved the one beautiful friendly Asian woman that knew what I always ordered, I came in almost weekly. My 1st Asian food in general was eating my brother in laws leftovers from here and it was always generals chicken and I couldn't get enough. Time has really changed. I understand years back they had a horrible tragedy hit there family and business. Everyone in the community was saddened by it, broke everyones heart. But after they reopened things where great, food wise. But know its really hit r miss... 5 years ago I would've given them 5 stars and said how amazing everything is. My daughter got orange chicken that tasted as if the sauce was scorched, when 2 visits ago her friend got the same and it was pretty darn good. The last 2 times my parents have been there their food wasn't as good as it used to be they said. My husband has only been there a few times that we've went and he had one good out of three... I really don't like how the egg rolls have a cinnamon taste almost to them, I lived in Hawaii and went to culinary school... egg rolls don't taste that way. I feel horrible saying anything bad about this place because I grew up loving this food. but darn you guys! you need to step it up and do what you used to do! Do that and you will be the best of the best again in a small town area! I am dedicated and have never went to that other place next to family video but if things don't go back to normal I might have to test them out. Really give them a try, it's a loving family owned business and they need everything they can get But darn you China Garden! step back up to where you were! It was never hit or miss in the past! When it's questionable you will loose customers! The key to a good restaurant is the dishes are ALWAYS the SAME as last time! read more

I really want to love this restaurant. I want it to be good; but unfortunately it misses the mark. I understand cost effectiveness with having all the chicken dishes have the same chicken, but I am just disappointed. Tried three different chicken entrees in one night to do a comparison. General, spicy orange, and sweet and sour. All had the same exact chicken just with different sauces. I got the order to go and I also understand the "not fresh out of the kitchen" quality. All the chicken 15 minutes after picking up, while picking up earlier than estimated, were gelatinous. All the chicken sticking together and mushy. The chicken itself was good tasting, but the coating was obliterated. Then come the sauces. The only one with flavor was, surprise to me, the sweet and sour. The other two sauces were nearly identical; both also tasted burnt or overcooked. Please work on QC!!! I really want to like you. read more

I have had an exceptional experience at the China Garden. We got the General's Chicken, Pepper Steak, and Hunan Shrimp, and it was brought out to us within 15 minutes. It was an great experience, and definitely be back soon! Highly recommended it. read more

We have eaten at this restaurant in the past, but it has been over a year. I don't know, perhaps it changed owners. A restaurant that we once thought was really good is now terrible. Couldn't identify the chicken, everything tasted of oil. Not fresh tasting . Will never return. read more
