Spring Garden

I have ordered food over 6 years. The food is always wonderful. It is flavorful, fresh and absolutely dependable. It is designed for takeout. I stopped going anywhere else.

A literal, local mom & pop Chinese take-out. She works the phones, he does the cooking. No Asian Fusion, no elevated or deconstructed nonsense. The Chinese food items you've come to love, prepared well, with fresh ingredients by your neighbors. I've been eating here for years and years, and it's always good.

Generous servings, great food. The style differs slightly depending on who is cooking. Always friendly. They handle substitutions well, e.g., "no mushrooms" or "cook well". Been going there for years, no problems. Some items I will go elsewhere for items due to "provincial" differences.

In Thornwood. Fast food Chinese. Food isn't all that good. If you want take out this is the only place in the area. Help is very nice. The combination plates have a lot of food and it comes with soup or egg roll and fried rice. Prices are reasonable. Always order the same thing of chicken and broccoli and boneless spare ribs combos. These are good but not great. Fast service and parking is right out front.

DO THESE PEOPLE CARE WHAT THEY PUT IN YOUR FOOD and for that matter what they don't put in your food! I WOULDN'T TRUST THEM AND I WOULDN'T GO BACK HERE EVER. AS FAR AS I AM CONCERNED THEY SHOULD GO OUT OF BUSINESS and leave take out food and restaurants to the ones owned and managed by honest, reputable people! I ordered something simple like chicken rice soup. They didn't put the chicken in the soup - just rice. I came back and insisted on the chicken. They actually wanted to throw the COLD RAW CHICKEN IN A BAG! Why on earth would anyone want to go to a place where they know there is a possibility THEY COULD GET SICK FROM THE FOOD, much less getting ripped off!
