Waitress was amazing and so funny! We asked what’s good she pointed to three items and said YUM YUM, YUM YUM, YUM YUM haha. We got the black pepper chicken and Mongolian chicken and they were both piping hot and delicious.
I ordered egg drop soup. It was the worst soup I had ever tasted. It wasn't the golden color and silky soup I love. It was a brownish watery tasteless crap. I also ordered egg rolls. They never included sweet and sour packets for the egg rolls. I will never spend my money at this restaurant. I miss the original owners!
They really do serve you a good amount and they treat you very nice and the green tea there tastes so good just like the food I always get chicken fried rice and the beef and broccoli and it’s amazing the chicken chow mein is great as well. Somebody posted a review under here with a photo of me and my boyfriend eating 😹 so 100% truth
Great lunch specials under $10 Huge portions, friendly staff. Highly recommend.
Worst customer service ever. I ordered online and made it clear I wanted sweet and sour chicken with the sauce in a separate container. It tends to make the chicken soggy plus may not be to my liking. While they did put sauce on the side, it flowed over onto the chicken, the whole 5 pieces of chicken. I believe this isn't a full order but have never (nor will again) ordered from Lily Garden. I called trying to explain and was met with inept employees who wanted to have me reorder a dinner. Both of the women I talked to try to defend the product but failed to listen to my concern. Ultimately they reach were talking over me, combative and I'll suited for their work. As for the food, the egg roll tasted like it was fried in old oil, even drowning in duck sauce it was still mediocre at best. The bbq pork fried rice had very little pork or egg and no vegetables. I don't believe they use the proper technique for fried rice as it was more like white rice in soy sauce. The chicken was good but really 5 chunks for $10? The sweet and sour sauce was also good. Will never consider this restaurant again. I was hoping for good food, met with bad food and horrible customer service.
