Diner reviews of Chinatown Garden
A diner from Amherst, MA
Jun 18, 2010
The worst Chinese food I've ever eaten, period. My wife, a vegetarian, ordered the garlic broccoli and was served Green Giant frozen broccoli that had been hanging around in a steam drawer for hours only to have some thin soy-like sauce containing some chopped garlic splashed over it. My dish of pork featured some pieces of hard pork soaking in a sauce remarkably similar to that my wife received except it was paired with the frozen Green Giant "Oriental Medley" from the adjoining steam drawer. Would be willing to bet that there are no more than 4 different steamed frozen vegetable mixes, several piles of pre-heated "meats" and less than a handful of sauces. Yes, it comes out quick. Two dinners and two warm oil soaked egg rolls came to $31, and our waitress, conspicuously absent most of the meal, literally stood at attention about 8 ft away after delivering the check. My wife and I bantered on for some time, wearing the waitress out. I wrote "cook Chinese food" where the tip amount was supposed to go and we split. I am telling you, McDonald's chicken nuggets w/ the spicy tariyaki sauce is much better Chinese than you will get here, and yes, I know that tariyaki is Japanese meat grilled after a sweet soy marinade, still, the chicken nugs with that sauce IS better Chinese food.

We were walking around looking for some good Chinese food and we found this place. The Chicken/Seafood soup was really good as was the General Tso's Chicken. Not very cheap but the food comes out very quick.

We look forward to returning to this quiet gem! Selected for its proximity to the National Zoo, we would return simply to enjoy the food and atmosphere. All this at a reasonable price -- a rare combination in D.C.
