Ya boy done got hims3lf in a pickel dis time! This a caper at hi elvations in da pocono! Lemme tell u da tale n we will see wut da history books will rite. D-rock the concurrent will regale u wit a rich tapestry woven wit da threads of storytelling. We all kno that when the times get tough that easy times make tough times easier than when they wuz tough. The accident took a toll on my personalty from who I had been carefree n lovin 2 everyone knowin that da cosmic sauce we all dippin our wings in is made from a base of holy unity amongst all sentient beins. I let da memory I can't excape of my slingshot spinnin out n goin down da boatramp on Kelly drive by da row center n da battry stop worken n it twist my footback 180 degrees. I knew I had 2 get back to me. I had 2 seek what had not been sought. I had 2 go on a journey 2 where a man could dive deep within who he is n make the mental sojourn to explore the dark corner of da mind to expose da peace that each man strive 2 be. I knew me n my gurl wuz gonna have to head to da pocono for da Memorial Day weekend break so I could get some peace amongst the mountain scenery. I had da Italian ailment call FUNDZALOW (funds-are-low) n knew we couldn't swing a Airbnb bcuz I'm on a fixed income right now n my gurl spend all her extra money on Her DUI lawyer payment plan so we had 2 stay wit her dad n brother that have 2 lazy eyes. We sleep in his room when we stay there n he sleep on da couch n his sheets always be wild all cover in dog hair n who kno when they washed. If that wuz not bad enuff then when u go out 2 use the restroom in the nite he sleep facing the door wit his eyes open so it look like he always looked kind of at you or behind u since his eyes lazy. We sat by da river the first day but it wuz rainin n tough get Down by the water at Smithfield beach bcuz my foot twisted up somethin unholy. We got down there n just sat n stare at da rain drop makin ripples in da river. It make me think about how everythin me n my gurl wuz goin thru now was just a ripple from an event cause by a poor decision. We wuz caught in the ripple now. It let me see that the ripple don't go on forever. Eventually life smooth out. The surface wanna be smooth. I knew in that moment ya boy wuz gonna be AOK. Tough time don't last just tough people bro. I knew I had da gumption to better my situation. I believed again. My girl believed again. We knew that da future had in store 4 us and we realized that we just accidentally take da elevator to da basement but we on da way back up to da penthouse but this time wit more awareness of da responsibility that go along wit it. All this enlightening made ya boy have da hunger of 2 oxen. I knew I must feast n I knew I had 2 have the cuisine of my enlightened Buddhist breatheren. I knew the battle I must fight to get back on da rite track n the only meal for for the fuel I would need was that of the great general tso. This chilken was given me the power of great warriors before me that vanquished armies, natural disasters, n personal injury cases. I got da large. No fried rice just all chilken n brocoli. The sauce wuz as sweet as the breeze on my lips cruisin down Kelly drive on the Schuylkill in my slingshot. The brocoli remind the green tree tops swayin in da breeze. A perfect summer day second to no other. Me, my girl, da slingshot, Philadelphia, the album God's Favorite by Noreaga blasting from Da speakers. Heaven, nirvana, whatever u wanna call it. I knew it waited there 4 me all bcuz of this chiken. The meal was a microcosm of the universe in dat moment. It wuz all gonna be ok. 2 have desire is 2 have inherent suffering. U just gotta make sure it worth it. I found peace in dat mountain, that river, n that meal. Believe. This had been anotha bangin' a$$$$ review by d-rock the cautious aka the milkman's screenprinter aka the IT helpdesk 2 da stars read more

Ming Garden 3 - Rice n the pens bro - Chinese Near Me - Marshalls Creek, Pennsylvania

I've been to this takeout spot countless times and just realized I never dropped a review. Today I grabbed some fantail shrimp, chicken lo mein (for my son), and the Dragon & Phoenix for myself. I don't like the fried rice at nearly any Chinese takeout spot in the area but the rice here most closely resembles NYC fried rice to me. The inside is fairly small with maybe 6 tables and the cleanliness is honestly what you'd expect from a Chinese takeout spot. So The Dragon and Phoenix is a little different here than I'm used to, but still good. I'm used to General Tso's Chicken with a spicy shrimp. This was General Tso's with a very basic flavored shrimp, maybe in a lobster sauce. I still enjoyed it, but it was just a bit of an unexpected twist. The fantail shrimp were a little overcooked as well but still enjoyable. Their fried rice and lo mein are always on point. This is definitely the spot I choose in this general area each time I want takeout, and I've been trying others to see if any will change that but so far none is up to the task.

Very good food for this area. Staff is nice and fast - always great for a quick lunch. The lunch specials are terrific.

Really like the food, though I'm going to start asking them to make it spicy. The place is best suited as a takeout but I saw like 3 tables there. read more

Ming Garden 3 - Hair - Chinese Near Me - Marshalls Creek, Pennsylvania

Fabulous Food. Best Chinese food for miles around. TAKEOUT ONLY...Unfortunately they don't deliver...I would even pay a little more,just to get it delivered. Thats the problem living here. Nobody delivers. Nyer who is used to ordering at 2 AM...and you can get anything anytime. read more

The food is okay. It's a hit or miss. Chicken wings are not fresh. Chicken is so hard sometimes. I can't eat it. The shrimps are not fresh. They're mushy all the time and that leads me to believe that they're frozen. I ordered pork fried rice and some of the pork was raw. I had to through the whole thing out. I barely order food from them. I just don't feel like anything is fresh. If you can't get the chicken or your shrimps right, That's a red flag for me. read more

Best Chinese food in NEPA! I love the almond chicken so much not everybody does it correctly but these guys got it right.

Wasn't disappointed at all. They have several tables for eat/in, but mostly takeout service. Preparation is accurate, prices are reasonable, packaging of takeout order is good not just thrown into a bag. It's a typical Chinese restaurant so don't look for anything special as far as "ambience." Wide variety of food, I absolutely love their steamed dumplings!!! read more

One of the Best chinese food spots in Pennsylvania! Everything my husband and I have tried has hit the spot!

Yup...me and that East Coast vs. West Coast Chinese thing, again. This place is a little gem tucked away in a strip mall, out in the middle of nowhere...which is, of course, how I found it. I'm visiting this side of the country for a few days and am taking advantage of being able to make meal decisions for 1...Chinese please... The recipe here is simple, old school New York Chinatown flavors, fantastic service with a huge smile and low price equals 5 stars. I ordered an egg roll, wonton eggdrop soup, pork fried rice and shrimp with lobster sauce...great food, great price. The egg roll was filled with red pork, so yummy...the soup had a bunch of perfectly sized, perfectly proportioned, perfectly cooked wontons in a super tasty egg broth...the fried rice added onions and sprouts for great flavor...the shrimp were plump and perfectly cooked in a just salty and garlicy enough sauce. Not a single thing to complain about...especially considering I have a fridge and microwave in my hotel room! This place, out in the middle of nowhere, in a hidden corner of a strip mall, beats any of the many meals I have had in the multiple Chinese restaurants I have eaten in at home... Well done! read more

Was in the area for a 3 day getaway and decided to try out this restaurant. I ordered the Walnut Shrimp for lunch and it was AMAZING! It was the best Walnut Shrimp that I had eaten thus far. The skin of the shrimps were nice and crispy and the mayo sauce was made perfectly! Also can't forget about the perfect serving size of the order! Will def come back to this restaurant if I ever drop by the area in the future.

This place is your typical Chinese takeout restaurant. But the food is on point compare to other places I have been through. 3 stars a ok place for take out. read more

Three items ordered with some instruction. 1) shrimp with crunchy/crisp broccoli in spicy brown sauce 2) pan fried pork dumplings 3) large wonton soup. Condiment/hot oil. Shrimp were mushy/gloppy not firm as fresh shrimp are when cooked, broccoli was mushy not crisp. Plenty of sauce to wash it back though which was a plus. Dumplings were tasteless mushy meat(?) with no texture of pork with a hint of being left too long in the fridge in a open lidless container. Wontons were bland tasteless meat with mushy dough wrapped around it swimming in a yellowish liquid like some trucker throws off the side of the highway. Last but not least was the condiment hot oil. It must have been mixed with black truffle oil (/s) as it was not the customary cherry red colored oil. Black bland with no taste or smell of the heat it should have contained. The little cup of hot oil is $1 each! After sampling a few shrimp, dumpling, wonton to make sure it was not a one off it went into the garbage! $26.97 and not worth the dysentery that comes with stale bad food that should have been tossed before being sold to the public. Zero stars not an option so one will have to do!! You'd be better off buying frozen Chinese food from the supermarket at half the price with something approaching actual authentic Chinese taste. Only one way but up from bottom. Your stomach and bowels will thank you! read more

Really good food. Love their steamed dumplings! They also have an array of specialty soups that are very good too. Nice diet menu too. read more

I've been going here since I was 6 years old. My step dad at the time would buy me chicken and broccoli. I didn't like broccoli but this place made me love it. The staff is super friendly, very good prices, and very delicious food! I'm actually going there today (11.19.2019) read more

Quite good! Certainly better than average Chinese-American counter take out. Clean facility with several hard working cooks and a lady at the front who is personable with the order experience. The food is yummy, with good ingredients. Coming from NYC, we're spoiled with the many Chinatowns. Ming Garden holds its own and would be able to hold its head high in NYC for take out. They have Szchuan and Hunan dishes. Great spot in the Poconos. read more

Love the food!! Have been ordering from this place for years!! The chicken on a stick is the best!!

Better food of the other chinos in the area.. im from ny so i have a required taste for how it should be but thats my opinion ..walnut shrimp is great though they can lay off the sauce a bit. Other than that why not read more

I like this place. I order a bunch of different things when I come, like chicken wings (really good) or shrimp and broccoli (not so good, shrimp is HUGE and hard to eat). 3 stars because sometimes they forget when I ask for hot oil or for example an entire white rice (the last time I ordered from them). I usually spend a lot of money when I go here but I order a lot of stuff, like lo mein and Singapore noodles. Their hours are very good and they're almost always open which is a plus. read more

by far the worst that I have had in a long time. the wonton soup was like dish water, no taste just disappointment. I ordered 2 egg rolls and he did not give them to me so I went back in and he said he had not charged me for them and asked if I had cash. What a joke. read more

It's a diamond in the ruff. As a local I only get from hear. Only down side is once in awhile the oil in there fryer needs to be changed more often. I can only tell this due to the fact that the egg rolls get soggy. Beyond that absolutely love it hear read more

I grew up in Brooklyn and spent a lot of my youth at Wo Hop's in Chinatown, NYC. It is one of the best known Chinese restaurants and has the best food. Well, I'm here to say that Ming Garden is the best Chinese food I've had since moving out of Brooklyn many years ago because they're from NY. The simple egg roll is one of the best I've ever had and anything else we order is always excellent. We're big fans so I'm glad we have this place so close and very very reasonable pricing. If you're in the area and want good food go to Ming Garden 3. read more

As far as Chinese places go, this one is pretty much the best I've found. Not even locally (local Chinese restaurants are mostly bad), but overall, it's great food! They have better variety, their food is not greasy, you can substitute for brown rice. I mean their eggplant chicken is amazing. And they have udon! I loved the duck udon. Try them, they're awesome! read more

I am in love. The server was friendly and joked around with us. The counter I should say. The food was reasonably priced and tasted great. It is a gemstone in a shopping center. I got eggdrop wonton soup which I can never find . Love is how I felt about the soup. My hubby got the happy family and liked his but I added pork and rice to my soup. A meal fit for a queen or king I made.it is great they are next to a grocery store so go shopping and then stop by here for lunch or dinner. You won't regret it. read more

Monroe County Dept. of Health Notified. I have been to some real dirty take outs before but this once is vile. Cluttered with stuff all over and bathroom will leave your skin crawling. Wife ordered shrimp with green been. She recieved mostly spoiled, rotten string beans. When I say rotten...I mean rotten, mushy and recooked old string beans.... I think the dish was intended for me since Im white and my wife is chinese. I received some devilish smiles on the way out...So Im sure then intended that dish for men. We called the counter girl over and she initially acted like nothing was wrong. I asked her to eat it or give her money back. She then stated "Maybe because they are out of season" (Why serve it then?....and why so much?) Its in a ran down shopping center. How do these places continue to operate? I tell you how...free food and pay offs read more

Ming Garden 3 - ROTTEN VEGTABLES - Chinese Near Me - Marshalls Creek, Pennsylvania

Think I was spoiled. I just moved in the area from nyc. Thought I'd check this place out. Bland the rice is over cooked. They overly sauce everything. Not good at all. Maybe those who think it's great food never really had good nyc Chinese take out before? The ppl who work there are very nice the food just stinks read more

As a former New Yorker who ate often in Chinatown, this is the best Chinese food I have had in years. Most places are cutting back, but the wonton soup here was overfilled with wontons, and the hot and sour soup was packed with vegetables and tofu. The egg rolls were large and well drained, not greasy at all. The shrimp with Chinese vegetables was heavenly. The shrimp were large and plentiful. The brown sauce was superb. We will be going here exclusively. Prices were very good also. read more

I totally love this chinese spot. Everything I have tried is great. Good Egg rolls. Hot and Sour soup is just right. Everything taste fresh and delicious. read more

If I could give this shithole 0 stars I absolutely would. I am a Chinese food lover but this place almost has made me never want to eat it again. The fried rice tasted like soggy water. The broccoli tasted bitter. Everything was a disgrace. The tables were so sticky , I learned how to eat without my elbows on the table. The only good thing about this place was the hot sauce. Do not waste a penny! read more

Honestly some of the most disgusting Chinese takeout I've ever had tried the chicken sticks they were slimy and had a terrible flavor also got an order of the chow mei fun and the noodles tasted awful read more

Best chinese food in area by far. Staff is super friendly too. Very clean and well kept.

Avoid at all cost. Ordered mushu pork, chicken and broccoli, and egg rolls. Three people had noteworthy episodes on the camode, one of us got lucky and threw up early in the morning, two of us have been worshipping the porcelain gods all day. It may be the best tasting Chinese place in the area but its not worth the risk and we will not be returning. read more

Quick service and always ready on time. Consistently wonderful food. My favorites are crab Rangoons and orange chicken. However, the shrimp and broccoli is quite tasty too. I'd have to say that this is my favorite local restaurant for take out read more

I've lived here for almost 13 years now and this place is always my go-to for Chinese takeout. They're quick and they give large portions (takeout containers usually overstuffed and ready to burst) and are almost always consistent with their taste. The best place for sweet and sour chicken. I love how affordable they are too! read more

Called at 10:10 to place my order. The girl at the counter answer with an attitude. Told me to "Hurry up and bring cash"!. Upon arrival they hadn't even started my food but where quick to take my Cash. Why would a business that advertises that the take credit card demand cash? Why would a business that advertises that there open till 10:30 tell you to hurry when it's 10:10? I left the restaurant for five min while my food was being prepared. When I returned the girl at the counter tossed my food on the counter without a Thank You or Goodnight. Wow is that how you treat your customers? read more

Food is always good and consistent. We've eaten here over 30 times, still not a bad meal. Big portions, we always have leftovers.
