Thai Fried Rice with Shrimp, Fried Calamari, and long life soup with extra vegetables
Kathleen L.

The restaurant is beautifully decorated and the ladies working here are so nice. I ordered the ginger tea and was blown away. Strong and full of flavor. This is the best ginger tea I have ever had. You can tell this is made fresh and not with a tea bag. My husband and I split the fried calamari it was perfectly cooked, chewy but not rubbery at all! My husband ordered the Thai fried rice with shrimp. He loved the flavor he just wish that they took the tails off the shrimp. He said he would definitely order it again. I had the Long Life Soup with extra Vegetables. I am normally not a fan of clear glass noodles but this soup was so delicious and I really enjoyed eating it! This restaurant is very clean, they play instrumental music and put white paper on the tables. I highly recommend giving this restaurant a try if your in the area.

Came by to eat on July 4th and luckily they were open. Per the owner, they're usually not open on this holiday. There's a nice area for parking in front of the restaurant and it's nice they're a bit set back from the busy street. The inside of the restaurant is nicely decorated. There were a few tables already filled and we noticed many take out orders. There were two staff taking orders. Perhaps because we were hungry the food took about 30 minutes to come out despite the restaurant not being too busy. The food however was excellent, great flavor, good portion sizes. They have the best pad thai I've had in this area. The owner came to speak to us and was very friendly, we will definitely be back.

Favorite Thai food around- green pea pod is amazing! Pickup !

I have been to green pea pod many times and is best Thai food in Mchenry county. They are still doing take out only just as a heads up. I ordered the pad Thai tofu as one of my favorite goto solid choices. Careful of they spicy level.... Medium has a very nice kick to it. Go mild if you don't like a kick. All is fresh and excellent. Highly recommending Green Peapod. Consistently excellent every time.

A True Hidden Gem in McHenry!…read more Plum Garden is one of those rare restaurants that has stood the test of time, and for good reason! Tucked away on a side street in McHenry, this hidden gem has been serving incredible Chinese food since the 1960s. First and foremost, the egg rolls are hands down the BEST you'll find anywhere! Seriously, they're worth the trip alone. If you've never had them, you're missing out! Another absolute must-try is the Hong Kong Chicken. It's a standout dish and one I highly recommend. There's something special about a family-style Chinese restaurant that's been around for decades, especially one that continues to deliver food worth coming back for. Plum Garden is a McHenry institution that deserves more recognition. If you love great Chinese food, do yourself a favor and seek out this hidden gem. You won't regret it!

I had the spring roll to start. It was pretty good. The hot mustard is hot, although I found the…read moremustard and sweet/sour sauce to be very thin. Like watered out. My companion had the egg drop soup and she sent it back. Very watery and lacking flavor. We had the crab Rangoons, which were pretty good. Next up was the beef chop suey. A generous portion, but there wasn't a lot of beef in it. Flavor was ok. The celery could have been cooked longer. It was tough. I had the sesame chicken, which was pretty good. A decent amount of chicken and good flavor. Service was just okay. We had soft drinks and I think $3.99 is high for a soft drink.
