Tea Garden

You enter and no one is there. After a minute someone shows up and show you to your seat. You see three other table with dirty dishes that won’t be cleaned up by the time you are done eating. The holes in the soy sauce cap are crusted shut. The host seemed clueless and overall awkward experience. The soda machine is not hooked up. The spring rolls are thick and crunchy like an egg roll not the traditional thin crispy shell. The veggies in the Mongolian beef were soggy and overall very sweet. The General Tso’s chicken had no spice even though red pepper flakes could be seen. It also came with three tiny pieces of broccoli which seemed silly in contrast to the portion of chicken. Just leave it out. Don’t use the bathroom. Overall 3 stars on the food but 2 for cleanliness.

I frequented the panda express down the road and soon realized i was eating the mcdonalds of chinese food. I searched for a Chinese restaurant nearby and found Tea Garden a couple miles away with the same entree i was getting at panda. SOOOO MUCH BETTER. You can taste the quality difference in every bite.
