Best Chinese and lowest price I’ve had in Waukegan (I liked better than Ming Toy, which was my long time favorite). No seating. Extra charge for additional sauces, silverware, etc.

So good! I was watching Big Bang Theory around 8pm and they were eating Chinese takeaway and I haven’t had it in years. This did not disappoint. Amazing portion for the price. The veggies and meat seemed so fresh and the sauce wasn’t overly salty....Read More

I have to amend my last review of China Garden. Its the best Chinese food around! Always fresh veggies. Sauces are spectacular! Dishes are now consistent. I order from there 3or 4 times a month.

First time getting food from here. The food was fantastic. I didn't care for the prepackaged mustard however. Would rather have the real thing. The entire dinner was excellent. Will definitely be ordering from here again!

Food is always great. Just make sure you check your order before driving away, and I have issues twice with getting someone else's food.
