It has taken me a while to figure out what Chinese restaurants are authentic and yummy in the Twin Cities. Specifically, I have been looking for a place that makes beef ho fun. It's comfort food to me. I did a search on my Uber Eats app and found this dish being offered at China Garden. Yes, please! I got the following items: - Steamed pork dumplings (8) - Beef ho fun - Thai milk tea I went with delivery. It was free and it's a treat to me. I normally fetch my takeout orders. It didn't take long for my food to arrive at my hotel room's doorstep. I asked that the driver leave it there and knock on my door before leaving. It's like getting a gift, except that you know what it is. I started with the steamed pork dumplings. They were yummy. They were handmade. The wrappers securely held the pork filling. The filling was yummy and generous. The dipping sauce paired perfectly with the dumplings. The beef ho fun was a massive portion. The beef slices were tender and full of flavour. I loved the green onions, bean sprouts, and onions. The wok sear on everything was excellent. The noodles were fresh and chewy. The sauce coated everything perfectly. The only downside was that it was on the oily side. I need to make a note to ask that this dish be prepared with less oil. Otherwise, I was impressed. It was yummy and authentic. I had Thai iced tea to wash everything down. It was excellent. I'd get it again. I got a couple of fortune cookies. They were a nice, crunchy end to my meal. I had an excellent experience. The food and drink were delicious. I should dine in this eatery next time for variety. I'd definitely return for more good eats and drinks. (439) read more

We had two entrees. The Mongolian Beef was a large portion and consisted almost entirely of meat. It tasted nothing like any Mongolian beef I've ever had. It tasted like Szechuan beef. So I wasn't really happy with it but it was large and meaty. The other entrée was the shrimp lo mein. The lo mein noodles had practically no flavor. I mean, they were tasteless other than noodles that were in oil. The best thing about lo mein is the lo mein sauce and this seemed to have nothing. It was, however, a very large portion of noodles and adequate amount of shrimp. So on portion size, I give them five out of five. On taste I give them a two out of five. read more

If I want American Chinese food that's bang for your buck, I usually go here for the lunch special. I get 3 lunch specials for my husband and me just so I can eat some for the next day and also get some free rangoons while I'm at it. Check out the coupons they have for online ordering so it's a quick in and out and you can get additional discounts or free items added to your order! I got their egg foo young and general tsos chicken usually, both which have huge portions where I usually eat half for lunch and the other half for dinner. There's plenty of parking in the lot as well, so no need to look for street parking. I remember driving about 30-40 minutes after picking up the food and the food was still piping hot too. read more

Not happy with this place. Food is inconsistent and the quality goes from ok to mediocre to plain out bad. What's really annoying is no public bathroom. I'm paying good money to dine there and don't have bathroom (which they do) To me that's a slap in the face read more

We placed our order on their wed site and got it delivered on a Sunday night. They delivered it in about 35 minutes which was very impressive! Food was still hot but they forgot one of the white rice that should've come with the dishes. It's always disappointing when they forget something but at least it was white rice and not one of the main dishes. Still a huge menu and cheap prices which is why we like ordering from them. We really enjoy the sesame and orange chicken. I didn't mind the chicken pad Thai! It was a little different taste then what I am use to. It didn't have much veggies. Lots of sauce but a decent taste. Egg roll was average as well. read more

Tried it for the first time today. Really good. Food was hot and they were very fast. I really like the cream cheese wontons. read more

I live this place! Go here frequently for working lunches or dinners. OMG try the garlic eggplant.... It is out of this world!

Over $11 for a wonton soup, that was 90% noodle and almost Zero meat. And whatever kind of meat that was, it tastes like dog food. I ordered the same thing from Xin Wong, and it only a little over $6 for a large, and half of each wonton was quality seasoned pork. I will NEVER order from you again, and discourage others from ordering from you. read more

We've done takeout three times recently. Well, seasoned beautifully prepared, wonderful vegetables, seafood, chicken, and pork! It is now become a regular for us. read more

This is a stripmall Chinese restaurant that I had high hopes would be a go-to for Americanized Chinese food. We got the spring rolls ($4.04) and fried vegetable dumpling ($6.10 for 8 pieces). Both of these simple appetizers were pretty good. The vegetable chow ho fun ($8.80) was a straightforward, savory noodle dish. I liked it. The broccoli with garlic sauce ($8.60), bean curd home style ($8.60) and bean curd Szechuan style ($8.60) all suffered from the same issues: a gloopy, congealed sauce and TONS of oil. These main dishes felt really heavy, though they did taste all right. Word of warning: the two bean curd dishes (home style and Szechuan) are indistinguishable from each other. If you're looking for great Americanized Chinese food, head a few miles south to Hunan Restaurant in Bloomington, which is stellar. Yangtze in St. Louis Park is also great. For something authentic, check out Grand Szechuan in Bloomington or Szechuan in Roseville. read more

Great place to grab lunch with a friend! It's quiet, it's calm, it just us a relaxed vibe that allows you to chill, unplug and enjoy. I was here with a friend and neither of us had been here before, it was recommended by another friend. He went for the pad Thai with beef and I always go for the pork egg foo young. It did not disappoint! I can eat some food and the portion will fill you up, guaranteed! Our host seated us and let us know she was training in someone new, the service we received was great, they key our drinks filled, they checked up on us every so often if we needed extra sauce or anything. It's a small place, but big in flavor and service. I'll absolutely be back! read more

What I consider to be some of the best take out Chinese in the twin cities. We love their beef lo mein and orange chicken

I've been searching for the best cheap Chinese in the Twin Cities, and the latest I tried was China Garden in Richfield. I went for the General Tso's lunch special, extra spicy. The chicken wasn't overwhelmingly spicy whatsoever, but their "spicy" version would be the perfect balance of sweet and heat for most. I had to throw a bit of sriaracha and hot chili garlic sauce in there, but once I did, it was certainly on point. The meal came with chicken fried rice, which I really enjoyed as opposed to pork/veggie fried rice. Furthermore, you can add on any soup for $.50, making it a crazy steal. The food itself was a 3/5, but the bang for your buck for a lunch special with soup ($8 after tax) definitely took it up a star! read more

Food sucked. Small portion & they tack on a gratuity. My order was $46. My ending total was $71. Make that make sense!! CROOKS

This place is just what you'd expect from a cheap Chinese takeout spot - and we love it in our house! My brother LOVES the orange chicken. The lunch combos are super cheap and really good. They deliver right to your door, and the food arrives really quickly & is always sill piping hot. They've always made our orders perfectly and accurately. I would recommend this place if you are looking for yummy Chinese take out. read more

China Garden - Szechwan Tofu (vegan!) extra spicy with a side of veggie egg rolls. - Chinese Near Me - Richfield, Minnesota

I ordered chow mein for lunch. When I got home it was missing an egg roll. The food had a hair in it. Yuck! Restaurant was filthy starting with the entrance way and a pile of pea pods heaped on a table in the middle of the restaurant. I will not be eating there again. read more

First time ordering, only reason I'm not putting five stars is because I have had better curry elsewhere; that being said, for the price and the quality of the vegetables, no silver skin on the chicken, and the rice being done well, I'd give it a solid 4. Delivery was fast, and I appreciate the driver calling to ask where I was, as he delivered to a business with no clear point of entry. I'll be ordering again in the future from work. Chicken Curry combo plate and chicken egg rolls, are the jam. read more

There is no flavor in any of the food we ordered which were basic dishes like wonton soup and eggdrop wonton soup. The dumplings we got were all mushed together. Wasn't expecting a lot for the food but it was still really disappointing. read more

The spring rolls, egg rolls and Dumplings were all good, well done! The problems I had were with the meat items. I had General Tso and then we got Beef Teriyaki. They were so absurd overcooked the meat became very very tough. The Beef especially was borderline jerky. read more

This is exactly what you expect and want from a place like this. Lunch specials under $10, fair portions and above-average taste. Will probably make this my weekly go-to when I'm in Richfield. read more

Ordered on Christmas day hours in advance. Without calling to tell us, they dropped off a few appetizers and left out over 100 dollars of food, then wouldn't answer the phone. Ruined out holiday. Totally unethical. read more

Well move along and save your money...seriously this place is bad the food cannot and I repeat cannot be eaten it's bad their sauce is no good and messes up the foods taste to where you don't want to take a bite and then they add so much sauce to the food like it tastes great or something lol but it's the opposite tastes quite bad actually and bland so move along and save your time and money read more

A bit of a hiccup with Uber Eats. China Garden was listed as a delivery within 30 minutes, however after 45 minutes I called the restaurant. The man I spoke to said they never got to our order. He was very apologetic but didn't offer to make amends. Finally, we agreed that he would start the order so I could pick it up. As I was leaving the house the man called back indicating the food had left the restaurant for delivery and they threw in an extra app. Frustrating for sure, but at least they tried to make it right. The food was much better than anticipated. The teryiaki chicken was tasty as were the wontons and dumplings. I'll give them another shot and hope the delivery service works out. read more

Ok good for the money. I don't like the typing you have to do do for these. This is a great place to order from

China Garden was our go-to Chinese take out from 2015-2017. Then it went downhill fast. It was as though someone new was cooking. We tried again tonight after three years and it appears they have their mojo back! With the exception of the fried rice which was a little under seasoned (although it had generous chunks of char siu), all the other entrees were quite tasty. The sauces and wok prep were what you always hope Chinese take out will be but rarely actually is. The Mongolian beef had a nice smoky wok hay, the Singapore noodles had generous amounts of meat and mini-shrimp all with a pleasant turmeric-y zing, and the sesame chicken sauce was not unidimensional like it is so many places. Could actually taste the fruit in it. They appear to be paying attention to detail again which is great to know. So glad we gave it another chance. These guys are back on the list! read more

Absolutely unacceptable to find a fingernail in our meal. It was found in the beef and pea pod...egg foo young was also burnt...but none got eaten but like one bite...as the fingernail was found inmy second bite. EVERYTHING was thrown out. read more

The only reason I am giving this one star is because ZERO is not an option. We ordered delivery to our hotel on a Wednesday night at 6:30. They told us it would be 50 minutes to an hour. It took a full one hour and forty minutes for our food to arrive. The food was horrible. Totally bland. It all tasted the same. I ordered hunan chicken EXTRA HOT AND SPICY. Not only was it not hot, it tastes pretty much just like the orange chicken and the kung poa chicken that we ordered. Finally, we asked for chopsticks and sweet and sour sauce........ we got neither of them with our order. Bad, just bad..... all the way around. read more

I have ordered from this location several times over the past 6 years, so much so that it was at least once a week for a couple of years. It is to be that I now have to say the food and service has went extremely downhill. When I would order before I would receive my order within 20 minutes. Well, today I ordered and my food was awful and it took me an hour and 20 minutes to get it. I can say this will be the last time I will ever order from here. read more

There were insects in our food and they refused to refund our money. I never had a problem there before for such a long time so being so terrible about this is just a real shame. But there are so many other options that are close to not have to deal with something so awful. read more

I tried this place out via Uber Eats since they had some massive coupons. I'm rating this based on two highly Americanized "Chinese" dishes, sweet and sour chicken and General Tso's (I do like more authentic stuff as well but it's just that these are my high carb cheat meal dishes). It's a bit tough to judge good "SS" and Gen Tso chicken because they tend to be different at different places, but the ones I got here "hit the spot" for what I was looking for. For me, that would mean SS chicken tends to have a slightly sweet, thicker batter that is crunchy on the outside but with good amount of chicken. The SS sauce is more fruity and sweet and less savory. The Gen Tso chicken, I've had ones that I can tell are objectively good, but have more of a savory flavor, but again, I prefer a sweeter one, which this one did. Also, the portions were definitely plentiful. The fried rice also was what I expected (in a good sense). I guess it hit my expectations / cravings for Americanized takeout Chinese that you want late at night. I'll probably try out a couple other places with the coupons I have, but will definitely keep this place as a go-to when I don't have coupons but have a strong craving and want to make sure I satisy it. read more

Tasty Vegan options!! Call or eat there to get the General Tsos Tofu (we ask for it spicy). Perfectly breaded, saucy, & yummy :)!

This is a strip mall Chinese restaurant and all that entails. Generic menu with the standard generic seasonings and sauces. Even with that low bar, you should take your money elsewhere. We've ordered twice from them. Never again. First time, food was not good -- tough white rice and chicken that seemed to have been run through a deflavorizing machine. Second time, order was not correct, and they refused a refund when shown the improperly prepared food. Customer service was terrible. If you want this type of fare, I know there is better strip mall style Chinese food in the area. read more

Worst Chinese food in 50 years. Delivered to my hotel, no eating utensils included. Overpriced. Fried rice gross, no meat in tasteless egg roll. We ate about five bites and threw the rest away. A waste of money. You cant blame covid for the poor quality read more

I ordered chicken wings, chicken fried rice, egg rolls, Sesame chicken and cheesecake. The chicken in the Sesame chicken tasted old, the egg roll was very greasy the fried rice was greasy with no flavor at all, the cheesecake was good. I would understand if it was just one dish, but the food was of poor quality. I was very disappointed and will not order from here again. I gave them one star because of the cheesecake (and the food was hot) read more

This place is amazing! I can either eat in, place my order pick up or have it delivery. I go out of my way to come eat here! Once you figured out what you like & what substitutions can be made, you'll never look back! read more

As far as the flavor, it was decent food at a reasonable price and a large portion for the money paid. It was a solid meal. It is what I would expect from Chinese delivery. What impressed me the most was that we received our $80 order in the time amount that was promised and it was all hot and fresh. Over the years, I my standards for Chinese delivery has fallen quite a bit. This restaurant just raised the bar a bit! Everyone from the person who took my order to the person who delivered it was very friendly and seemed to be sincerely grateful for my business. read more

Burnt oil taste, my order was not complete, and the chili flakes they used didn't have any rate or spice to them (which was odd!). Wouldn't recommend unless they change standards. read more

Not bad. Our regular orders are kung pao chicken and shrimp egg foo young at most Chinese restaurants. Clearly this place is made more for delivery than eating in. Service was mediocre, but food was good. Partner is pretty picky about food, especially his kung pao. He said this was better than most places, definitely not bad. Happy to have leftovers for tomorrow. read more

Very fast, hot, and tasty delivery! Straight-forward Chinese food with fresh ingredients and yummy sauces. Had a hankering for egg rolls and cream cheese wontons and they did not disappoint. The chicken with vegetables had a nice array of veggies, not just the cheap ones! And the sesame chicken was yummy. Thumbs up! Forgot to say the combination is a great deal...meal, egg roll and fried rice! read more
