China Garden

We tried China Garden in Jim Thorpe and were a bit disappointed with the food. We ordered chicken wings, vegetable rice, chicken fried rice, and shrimp noodles. The rice dishes were quite bland, even though we had asked for them to be spicy. The chicken wings were also too oily for our taste. The service was fast and friendly, which we appreciated, but overall the food didn’t meet our expectations.

The staff was very friendly and respectful. The store was clean, and the bathroom was also well maintained. I ordered pork fried rice with chicken wings. It only came with three wings, which I found a bit unusual since most Chinese places typically include four, but they did add an egg roll, which made up for the missing wing. The rice lacked flavor and was somewhat stuck together, but the chicken wings were good. Prices were very reasonable. I ate here again a week later since I’m often in the area for work and wanted to give them another chance. The food tasted exactly the same.

Amazing Chinese food in Jim Thorpe! Definitely come for lunch as they have a super reasonable “special luncheon” where you pick a main meal, rice, and a soup for $8.75! They were quick, food was hot and tasty, and it was delicious!

We were in Jim Thorpe, a magical town, with many bars and restaurants. We walked in to enjoy some fabulous authentic chinese food. Fantastic. Joy, was very friendly and sweet. The food was excellent. We are from New York amd often eat in china town in both New York and Philadelphia. The fireplace was such a warm inviting touch as we ate. We did order food to take back to the air B&B with us. You do not need any soy sauce or duck or anything. The taste of the food was excellent. We ordered a lot for 2 people, however, it was so nice to enjoy our wine that we brought in and just relax. We were not rushed at all. It was a wonderful end to our weekend. Thank you. Walter R Fairbanks.

What was good, was really good. But what wasnt left a lot to be desired. The dumplings in garlic sauce were great and a must order. So was the chicken skewers. The chop suey however wasn't quick what we were expecting or have received in the past as chop suey from other places, and the bbq pork chow fun was really really underwhelming. The noodles were over cooked and mushy, and the all over flavor just wasn't there. I was happy to have the garlic sauce from the dumplings to spruce it up cause it needed it. I did appreciate how late they are open though, seeing as almost everything else in the town closes at 8.
