Hot and sour soup and the E3 set draw repeated praise, with reviewers describing generous meat portions and food staying hot without excess salt, even through long waits on busy nights.

“Sorry to be negative but it’s the only way to improve. Been a customer for 35 years. The food quality has deteriorated. Soggy rice. Scrappy chicken in the chow mein. Poor chips not like they used to …”

“Have lived in Baldock for a couple of years and never had a Chinese from China Garden and then on possibly their busiest night ordered from here. Was advised straight away of over 60 minutes but it was definitely worth waiting for. Its good to see that despite how many people were waiting to collect and the continual ringing of the telephone but did not compromise on customer service or food quality more importantly. Lots of meat in all the dishes, really hot and not too salty. Hot and sour soup was amazing. Would definitely recommend China Garden and will 💯 be ordering again in the future.”

“I had possibly the best meal I have had from there tonight. China Garden has always impressed but there seems to have been a step up in the food and my meal tonight was phenominal, 100% recommend!”

“Spent £18 on two dishes and spring rolls. For the price the portions were tiny. Was surprised but too late to do anything after I’d paid. Went home, took two bites and found a piece of metal, originally thought it was a bone and when chewed through, it looked like a flattened staple. Called the take away place to tell them, they didn’t seem bothered, didn’t ask any questions and didn’t offer any refund. Didn’t finish the meal as I was disgusted, so it was a waste of money and very disappointed, never seen anything like this before. Obviously do not recommend and would never try again.”
