I love Lemon Chicken. With that being said, I am also picky when it comes to the flavor. This hits the right spot! Not too sour, not too sweet. It is just right. The pricing is very good too! I mean, where can you find a lunch special for less than 9 dollars now? The service is superb. It is a family business operated years ago. The light setting is a little dark. read more

There's nobody here . It's April 18th at 7pm Should I be concerned? I'm waiting for this food as I type away. My total was over $50 not including drink. I'm typing and gonna send the food photos to show y'all. I read the reviews before I got here. For now, the service is okay. The girl at the counter seems okay. She has a raspy voice but is okay. I mean she is getting orders for pick up. Okay got my food. The flavor is kind of bland, I added a lot of hot sauce. I'm gonna give 3 stars because I think I will come back. see photos . I'm gonna eat it because I'm hungry. I have leftovers for breakfast lunch and dinner now lol This is a lot. Anyone wanna join me ? read more

My husband and I have been craving Chinese food and this establishment is near our home. We stopped in for an early dinner. We had to go to the restroom first. Afterwards I almost had my husband take me elsewhere. The light switch is very dirty. The tiles and floor are in disrepair. I couldn't get hot water out of the faucet to wash my hands. We ended up going ahead and trying them out. We got dinner #B hot and sour soup, orange chicken, shrimp LoMain , egg rolls , cheese wonton and fried shrimp. The soup had a weird aftertaste I could not figure out what so I didn't eat any more my husband felt the same way so we left it behind. The eggrolls and fried shrimp had like an old oil taste to them. The cheese wontons were very good. We could have eaten more of them. The main course came with fried rice and all of that was very good. The restaurant itself was inviting , had beautiful chandeliers, and decor. The tables were clean and nice. The server was quick and efficient. read more

China Garden has gone through many iterations over the years, but the food is good. Clearly this is a small family run operation, with the hostess up front, who also doubled as our server and also runs to the kitchen to get the Take-Out, while answering the phones. She easily put on 5K in steps, while we were sitting here. It was just incredible to watch. But the key here is the food and to a lesser extent the service. Some of the reviewers seem to miss that and took exception to this incredibly hard working owner. We went with the Fried Pork Dumplings, Chicken Cashew and General Tso's Chicken (photos). The General was clearly the best. The surprise was the gift of some Egg Drop Soup, which came with our meal. Nice!! Three and a Half Stars "A-Okay", rounded up to Four Stars.

We came in for lunch around 2pm today and were Sat immediately. Ordered 2 lunch specials that came with egg drop soup for 7.95 which is more than reasonable. The food was so fresh and amazing we were truly blown away. The crispy beef was so tender and my husbands general chicken tsaos chicken was crispy and yummy too. The inside was calm, not hectic at all and seating options for boothes or tables. Oh the little crispy noodles they bring you for free in the beginning are so very yummy - thank you read more

This place has been on and off my radar now for the entire 18 months I have lived so close. A new Thai and a new Korean place recently opened in the same downtown area, and I haven't been compelled to try either of them yet as well. Hungry and heavy rain lured me in even though I had a big bag of fresh groceries, and I can cook like the wind. I really just wanted a big bowl of hot and sour soup but opted for a combination appetizer platter. Fried shrimp, Egg rolls, Paper chicken, Crab ragoons and both steak and chicken skewers served in a large sectioned out wood serving bowl with a flaming cauldron in the center. It wasn't bad, and that beat expectations. I would have liked more sweet n sour sauce over the larger than necessary brown sauce. The place isn't much to look at as the hostess desk is basically a box with glass and stuff everywhere, the dining room ultra-bright and the tables sparsely topped. Service was nonexistent, a gesture to sit where I liked, a quick order, and food unceremoniously dropped at the table until the end when my server came out into the rain and called out to me because I had left something behind. Pro move and let me to believe the service thing was more of a language thing. Would I go back- probably and sooner than the 18 months it took for my first try. read more

China Garden - Greetings - Chinese Near Me - Sun City, California

Food is amazing and as always service is great I never been disappointed with new owners

We ordered egg rolls, Orange Chicken, and black pepper beef. The order came with fried rice. I called in the order for delivery. The service is what you expect in any chinese restaurant. Lol, non existant basically, but that's normal. For a restaurant, the quality of the food is what you expect from a takeout, not restaurants. The best thing about our order was the crispy egg rolls. The orange chicken wasn't crispy, and some pieces were really dry. The black pepper beef looked promising, but once we dig in, we find a lot more onions than beef. And this was a chef's specialty. The fried rice was good with both items. Can't say much about the ambiance of the place since we had the order to go. We may try other items, but we'll see. read more

I just want to preface this by saying I do have quite a bit of bias towards this place since I used to have lunch here quite often when I was younger. This place used to have a massive silver arowana tank which was amazing for a kid my age, but it has changed ownership a few times since then. What I can say is that the pan fried noodles are still absolutely amazing. I want to mention that this is less of a bistro restaurant, and more of a home-style flavor, so don't expect any incredibly powerful flavors, instead, enjoy the subtlety and nuance. If you sit down to dine, and they have been doing this for over twenty years now, you get a complimentary bowl of egg-drop soup and these little crispy noodles with a sweet sauce. read more

The food is just mediocre. The fried shrimp is good, but the rest of the items on the menu the main courses they just don't taste right all the time. read more

We'll we gave it a shot. The staff were attentive & nice, but the food lacked flavor. The chow or lo mein - how do I say this without being unkind? I don't know how to explain it, I've never tasted lo mein the way it tasted. It was bland & although cooked, it wasn't lo mein. I'd say I've had chow mein taste like ramen noodle pack from the store, this wasn't close to how 99c top ramen tastes, even with the over saturated sodium packet, just very bland & a weird taste. The won ton soup was Ok, but I've have had better. So sorry to give a low rating but I have to be honest. Maybe the original cook is gone and whoever took over is trying but it's just not what we're used to in Chinese food. Maybe in future they'll get a new cook and we'll try it then. read more

Lunch Specials were $7.95 served with Egg Roll, Fried Rice, Salad and Egg Drop Soup was well worth it. The food tasted pretty good. There wasn't much oil used. The service was descent. The atmosphere was good and wasn't too crowded. It's a hidden restaurant, right next to Vons and would have not known if it weren't for google map. Our favorite was the Crispy Beef Hot Sauce, Lover's Nest was our second favorite though there isn't a lunch special for that, we ordered the Dinner portion. read more

This was our first time ordering from this restaurant and if I could give them a negative star I would. The food was under cooked and had an after taste that made the food just not tasteful. read more

No stars at all food was horrible, under cooked, no flavor and to top it off hair in my food spent $50 not worth it, I don't know why they're still open UGH read more

The food is a very cheap quality. The cook looked like he threw the food on the plate. It was hanging all off the sides. It was flavorless. The customer service is as bad as the food. The lady was mean and impatient. Handed me the menu and said what do you want before I opened the menu. She brought food and sat it down aggressively and left. It's a " no return" for me. read more

The China Garden serves the finest Chinese Food in Menifee. Excellent food, prices and service!

This is the first and last time I come here. The food was awful. First thing the place is dated and dirty, second the food is not what I would call Chinese cuisine. The fried rice was more like boil in bag sticky rice that was steamed not fried with small sparse pieces of egg and it was soaked in soy sauce. The service was whatever. read more

Do not waste your time and money. Customer service was terrible, food was worse. Better off going to Panda Express or frozen food section at the grocery store. Listen to the bad reviews, as they are accurate. read more

Food was great. The place was empty. I didn't understand because the food was really good. Service was very good.

This restaurant is awesome for take-out or delivery! The food is delicious. Eating in leaves somewhat to be desired. Maybe I was there on an off night. Shrimp and Lobster sauce is amazing. read more

Ignore those reviews that are more than 4 or 5 years old. I've eaten here 4 times recently. The food is good, not great. I like my spicy food slightly spicy and I have to order it extra EXTRA spicy to get it spicy enough for this gringo senior! Judging this on a low price, low expectation scale. If the food was expensive, the 4 star rating would be lower. Service is adequate, just a busy woman trying to take care of the entire dining room. The sesame chicken is worth a try, ask for extra spicy! read more

Picked China Garden for dinner and found a Q-Tip in the food extremely disgusting will not be going back

I was thoroughly disappointed in this food...it was tasteless, the lo mein was over cooked, there were barely any vegetables in any of it and it all was the same brown color and the egg rolls were soggy inside. The best part of the whole meal was the egg roll shells. The lemon chicken had absolutely no lemon flavor, at all. I cannot believe it had a 4.5 star rating on Grubhub. just goes to show you that you cannot trust the ratings. I don't know what these people who rated it highly eat every day, but they do not know good Chinese food When they taste it. I was absolutely and unequivocally disappointed. This is going in the garbage. Even the soy sauce they have has no flavor. Trying the fortune cookies now. : /. read more

Always tastes fresh and delicious. The servings are way too big, which is awesome when you're trying to feed multiple people or want leftovers. It's incredibly small inside though. I was immediately anxious trying to make my way to the register because it's so small and crowded read more

I've come here on a few occasions when I'm out visiting my grandparents - and each time I think it's just "ok." Nothing to write home about, nothing to make me jump for joy. Given the restaurant selections in Sun City; however, it is probably one of the better, non-chain dining options. That aside, my issues come down to: * So many of the dishes are fried. I know frying is easy... but... eww? * Nothing is spicy, except for the hot and sour soup. I have tried multiple dishes with the little chili pepper next to it - including general tso's chicken, orange chicken and some beef dish.. and none have been spicy. Bring on the heat, baby! * I always leave feeling a bit... queasy. Last time it wasn't just me - it was my mum and hubby, too. Our food never comes out at the same time - my mum and hubby got their dishes a good 10 minutes before my dad got his. Mine had to go back, on this last occasion, as it was cold. I won't hold that against them though - I'm definitely not a chef and couldn't even begin to think about how to make orders come out at the same time! I might give them another try again in the future... maybe... just maybe. read more

Great food and good selection. The Egg Foo Young is a favorite of mine.

I've been very disappointed with this restaurant lately. It used to be my favorite go-to restaurant for Chinese takeout but has gone down hill since the pandemic. It sadly went out of business in 2020 then reopened by which seems to be a new ownership. I've even given it three tries since. They charge more and give you less, even in smaller containers. (I typically do the lunch special takeout.) I got the orange chicken last time - there was nothing "orange" flavored about it and even no "chicken" about it. Definitely no egg roll with it either. Which they used to give you. Even the front desk lady is so cold and unfriendly unlike the man who used to be there. So unfortunately they will no longer get my business. I'm going over to China Bros instead. read more

Food is ok. But my complaint is the theft/stealing of credit/debit card numbers by this business. Ordered delivery and paid with a card that I rarely use. About 3 hours after the purchase my card started being used to make online purchases at "Kfga" and "Facebook". Unfortunately it was a debit card so they literally drained the account to $0. FML. read more

China Garden - Purchase from china garden and then a bunch of fraudulent charges showed up on my card. - Chinese Near Me - Sun City, California

I was so happy when I received a menu at my house in Menifee with a Chinese restaurant that delivered. I didn't know there was one for the last 14 years since I moved here from San Diego. I have now ordered 5 times from China Garden, all delivery to my home. They arrive in 45 minutes to 1 hour, which is perfectly acceptable for me since I plan ahead and am usually working prior to their arrival. They always arrive very friendly and polite. I order the Shrimp with Lobster Sauce because it's my favorite! I get one order the way they make it (with lot of things in it like snap peas, mushrooms and the crunchy water chesnuts, etc.) and one order with just broccoli and the shrimp with lobster sauce. I get the steamed rice, but one time I ordered their big shrimp fried rice dinner and it was fantastic! It was the same size the shrimp with lobster sauce comes in and there was some egg in it and something else but I can't recall. I had trouble getting through and received a recording that sounded like they were out of business, but they said you hear that when they are on both lines. I'm glad I kept trying, because dinner last night was AWESOME! If you want to give this restaurant a try and love shrimp, I highly recommend the shrimp with lobster sauce! I took pictures for you guys/gals, too, so you can see how it comes. I tip them on the receipt, too. I think the bill was $24 and I gave them a $4 tip. If I had gone out, it would have cost me much more. read more

My last experience I ordered the teriyaki chicken to go. Got home and it was white breast meat and very dry.

This is my go to Chinese restaurant for potlucks and family takeouts. Average wait is 15 to 20 minutes. Food and service is great!

Pretty good. Place been around over 20 yrs. They have great chicken chow mein. Chuck norris eats here. Lol
