I needed to go to Jerome for an ultrasound last week. Of course I'm going to check out the local…read morerestaurants and see what our food options were. I did Google Chinese restaurants in Jerome and this joint, China Garden came up with a 5 star ranking. Curiosity got the best of me and I needed to see why this Chinese restaurant in this small town is 5 stars. Granted, there were only a few reviews but I had to know why! Honestly, I should have read the Yelp reviews as well. It might have lead me to another restaurant for lunch. My friend and I made it in a little after 1. There were a couple guests eating which is a good sign. We sat ourselves and waited for our server. My friend ordered a diet Coke while we were looking over the menu. Our server had to ask my friend several times what he was drinking because she forgot. I should have taken our first interaction with our server as an indication of how our lunch service would be. I ordered some hot and sour soup to start lunch off. For lunch I got the tofu, shrimp and scallops dish. I did ask the server if there are any vegetables in the dish. Nothing was listed but the 3 things of the dish. She said yes so I didn't worry about adding extra veggies to my plate. Our food came out at the same time. My plate did look good cause it was tofu, shrimp and scallops but I was curious to where the vegetables were at since there were supposed to be some in my dish. Technically there were a few slices of carrots and water chestnuts. When I think of vegetables in a stir fry dish, I think of brocolli, bamboo shoots, onions..... The fact that the server didn't tell me that those were the only two vegetables in my dish was rather annoying. I would have approached ordering my lunch differently. The tofu was soft. The shrimp was nicely sized and cooked perfectly. The scallops were baby scallops and you get a handful of them. The sauce was flavorful and savory. It was actually a good dish but it was pretty much all one texture. If there was some brocolli florettes to add some crunch, I think this dish would have been so much better. My server did forget to order my soup. I probably should have taken that as a sign and not have it. But she brought it out after I asked her about it. I'm going to recommend saving yourself a few bucks and not order it. It was overwhelmingly sour. Way too much vinegar in the soup. No spice and no flavor could be tasted. I ate a couple bites and set it to the side. Our server was clueless, lazy and inattentive. The food was decent. The plate I had could have been that much better if there was a crunch element to it. It's cool I got to check this joint out but it's far from 5 stars on Google. Yelp had the right ranking and I should have read the reviews on Yelp before eating here.

We were sat, ordered our drinks and then had to wait 20 minutes before receiving them and being able to order our food. We ordered low mein, fried rice, and general tsao's chicken. We waited for nearly an hour or more for our food. When we received the chicken it was the wrong kind. She had given us kung pao, and before I could even say anything she rushed off. We sat there for another 10 minutes waiting for the rest of the food. When she came with it, before she rushed off again I said that I had wanted general tsao chicken. She looked at me and told me that I had in fact ordered kung pao (which is not true because I don't like kung pao). Before I could say anything she stomped off. The noodles and rice both were cold and at that point I wasn't even hungry, I was just upset and wanted to leave. She asked if we wanted boxes for the food we barely even touched. We both said no. And she walked away. I looked at the check and saw that she had left the kung pao on the ticket, but it wasn't what we wanted nor was it remotely eaten. I literally left the plate at the end of the table in hopes that she would notice and take it but she never did. When we walked to the front to pay I brought this to the managers attention and tried explaining what happened. While in the middle of explaining the waitress yelled in front of a lobby full of people that "they ordered the kung pao chicken, I read the order back and they said yes". If that is true I don't have any recollection of it. I was shocked and embarrassed. The manager looked at me and said she needed to speak to someone in the back. So my mom and I stood there awkwardly waiting. She came back and acted extremely annoyed and said she would take it off and said that I should have told her to take it back when it was brought out initially. I told her that I had tried but was met with immediate backlash and she walked away before I could even ask for it to be corrected, nor did she give me the option for it to be corrected. The manager rolled her eyes and collected the money. At this point I wanted to cry. I am not one to ever complain, and it took a lot of courage for me to even say that it was the wrong dish. Overall, today's experience left a bad taste in my mouth and I'm not sure if I want to go back. Which really sucks, because i used to tell everyone how great this place was.
