Last night was so good we came back tonight! Well surprise tonight was better than last night. All I had was shrimp fried rice and two egg rolls but they were both excellent! I've never had better , even in NYC no less! Make sure and try this place! read more

I have frequented Emeral Garden for several years, but yesterday was a totally different experience. I am wondering if the Emerald Garden is under new ownership or new management. The quality of the food had drastically changed. The won ton pork soup I ordered yesterday was extremely bland. The won tons were very thick and doughy and there was the smallest of bites of pork in each one. In addition to the soup, I ordered the chicken lo mein lunch special. What a disappointment! Most of the container was filled with a dry, fried rice. The lo mein was portioned as more of a side and very little chicken had been added. The egg roll was semi-warm and soggy. When I requested a small container of sweet and sour sauce, the employee dropped it into my bag of food. Upon opening my food, I discovered that the sweet and sour sauce had opened and the bottom of the bag and the containers were drenched in sticky sauce. During the years I have been a customer at Emerald Garden, the quality of food and service has fluctuated, but not nearly to as low of a level as it is at this time. And as a side note.... I do NOT like to be charged a tip before I can place an online order! read more

Roast pork lo mein. Delicious!!! Lo mein is hit or miss for me, so I was sceptical. We LOVED it! Got the combination dinner w pork fried rice and egg roll . Yummy rice too! I'll post a picture next time...will be returning soon! Enough for two!! read more

We've been ordering from these guys for over 10 years. They have an independent delivery service and lovely lads working for them. Their food is about as good as you can hope for in American-Chinese food, and that's not an easy compliment to give considering how bad some places are. Their food has a great taste, nostalgic even. 10/10. read more

I always order and pay online. Food normally ready at time advised. I've had several different dishes. I'm happy with the food. read more

This is my go to for quick reliable food on this side of town. At this walk in visit, I ordered small shrimp fried rice, small pork lo mein, and pint of wonton soup. Staff was friendly. Store was very clean and well kept. My order was ready within ten minutes. Hot and ready to go. It tasted as expected. Everything was flavorful and hit the savory button. I will be back when I need a quick bite. read more

Pretty much what you'd expect for Chinese takeout. Nothing overly special but still delicious.

I saw some good reviews so I thought I'd try it out. I ordered several things that totaled 70+ dollars. They told it would take 10 mins but ended up taking 25 mins cause they had to go to Walmart to get some scallops. When I finally got my food my egg rolls were so greasy that I had to wrap a lot of napkins around it to absorb all the grease while ate it. Ewww. When I got home my daughters egg foo young were super greasy too. She didn't want to eat it. When I came to look at it I noticed that whole bottom of the pan was swimming in grease. Lastly I ordered some orange chicken they left out my order. Unfortunately I didn't realize it til I got home 25 mins away. I love food. Just wanted to share this experience for all of you that love food like me. read more

I order some low mein, wontons, and honey chicken from this place. As I was taken bites into my chicken I pulled a long piece of hair out of my mouth!! I then looked into the rest of my chicken and saw more hair!!! When I called them to complain, the "manager" told me the best they could do was offer me a free meal. Never again!!! read more

I enjoyed my lunch here , last night I had dinner here. So I guess I have a new place for Chinese that's close to my job for lunch.

We have not ordered from Emerald Garden for a few years as they went down hill. Well, that has changed! We ordered take out last night and it was fabulous! The sesame shrimp and orange chicken were packed full in large containers. There was a wonderful sauce at the bottom. The fried rice was delicious, moist yellow rice loaded with perfectly cooked vegetables. Not the shriveled peas and carrots, but perfectly cooked broccoli, onions and bamboo shoots. Here is a picture of the leftovers. I would have taken a pic of the dish last night but it looked so good, we just dove in. read more

This is our go-to restaurant for take out Chinese Food. Tried others but this is the best we have found. My favorite is the Beef and Broccoli. The fried rice is just yellow rice though. The Crab Rangoon is a very large portion and taste good. My husband likes the General Tzo Chicken. Give this place a try. read more

I have eaten here several times but it's been awhile. I am wondering if they are under new management or have a new chef because the food was much better than in times past. Not that I didn't like it before, but it was just A LOT better this time. We got the chicken wings (although a bit over cooked , were big and flavorful), the steam dumplings are far away better than they used to be, the shrimp and broccoli (huge shrimp and large portions), and finally the moo goo gai pan (yum!). All this fed a group of four with tons of leftovers! Whatever they are doing now, they need to keep doing it! read more

I'm so glad they're here in my hood! Very nice and hard working people with consistent Chinese takeout and fast delivery when I seem to need it the most from long late weeks working and not remembering I actually need food. Ha! I usually just have the dumpling soup and steamed chicken, but most of the menu has been sampled at our casa through the years and it's all pretty great when you need something last minute. read more

Quick and easy, the price here isn't too bad. We typically spend between $30-40 here for our dinners (we're a family of four) in a variety of items, and always have more than enough to satisfy us for dinner AND have leftovers. My favorite thing on the menu is their chicken lo mein. They also have some really delicious egg rolls, the consistency is crunchy and perfect. Haven't found a think we don't like on this menu yet. read more

The sweet and sour chicken made me very sick. Can't recommend unless you want a super unhealthy way to lose a few pounds.

Not good food. We ran in because it was close but will not go again. Fast food, not hot and fresh. We were so disappointed and regardless of it's handy location we will drive further for good hot fresh lunch! read more

Typically, the food is good at this establishment. However my last two visits were disappointing. Specifically asked for spring rolls and was given shrimp egg rolls both times. This was especially concerning since I have a shellfish allergy. read more

We had Beef with Chinese vegetables and Kung Pao chicken and it was very, very good

Food is really good, fresh. Love theory dumplings. Little while in the wall location, worth the wait. Too bad shipping plaza is so dead

We ordered food for take-out on New Year's Eve. We had the Triple Delight and General Tso Chicken along with sweet and sour and egg drop soup. All of the dishes were delicious and large portions. We had enough leftover for two more meals. The order was ready when we arrived and was hot and packed well for the ride home. I will order here again. read more

I can't give less than 1 star otherwise I would, we went for lunch after we saw the reviews, it had 4 stars, the place is filthy, the food less than mediocre, I never had such a bad experience in a restaurant in Tallahassee. read more

Food is just average service wasn't great. Atmosphere was the standard Chinese takeout joint style.

I have been here on multiple occasions and it has always been my favorite Chinese spot in Tallahassee! There egg rolls, krab rangoon, sweet and sour chicken and the chicken with vegetables are all phenomenal!! read more

Best Chinese takeout in town, and fair prices too. General Tao chicken is especially tasty.

I love this place! He good is fresh, delicious, and reasonably priced. My favorites are their beef broccoli, sesame chicken, cashew chicken, and hot and sour soup. Lunch is about $6 and dinner is about $8. I am satisfied and I don't feel like I spent a lot. read more

Best chinese takeout place I've ever had near where I live. Great krab rangoon. Everything is pretty spot on. Too bad they don't have bourbon chicken or a few other chinese/cantonese faves. Decent prices. Pretty comparable. read more

This is an great Chinese restaurant. I have been eating here for years, and the food is always delicious. I usually order for carry out, and it is very fast. It is a terrific value, and a wonderful local, family run business. read more

Wouldn't know what the food tastes like because we waited 2 hours for the delivery - food never showed up. Luckily we were refunded but it seems they did not want our business? Couldn't have asked for a worst first impression of them. read more
