Chow Garden — Restaurant in Melbourne

Fantastic food. Have been going there for about 30 years. Have not been dissapointed. We usually get: Special Fried Rice - aromatic, fluffy and delicious. Beef in Black Bean Sauce - Wow, beef melts like butter it is so tender, sauce is rich, full of flavour, very generous amount and veggies cooked to perfection. Very delicious. Lemon chicken - OMG, best lemon chicken you will ever have. We always get two servings of the large. It is definatley worth it. Two fillets battered sliced. Juicy, tender and delicious dipped in the lemon sauce. (Typically when you go elsewhere it is dry, and hardly no chicken in the batter). Mongolian Beef - Very nice but my husband loves spice and would like a more chilli and heat in it. Hokkein Noodles with Chicken and Vegetable - Very delicious, full of flavour, veggies cooked perfectly plenty of sauce/jus.

We alternate most visits but the above is our favourite. absolute must visit. Keep supporting this wonderful business. Their great cooking, food and staff are a testament as to why they have been around for so long. Great job guys, see you...

This place just never disappoints.

From my first visit some 20 years ago; to becoming a regular since moving to a nearby home, I've always enjoyed their authentic and flavourful dishes.

My all-time favourite is Mongolian Steak however other go-tos include their Sweet & Sour Pork (Fried), Chicken & Vegetables, Special Fried Rice...and after tonight, add Hokkien Noodles to that list which was not only delicious and filling, was customised to my preference (with a smile).

Prices are also on the more affordable end of the scale; particularly given the quality that's served up, you definitely get bang for your buck here.

Keep doing your thing...

Called and ordered via phone and was told the food would be ready for pick up in 15 minutes. I arrived and paid 20 minutes later and was told to wait in my car and the food would be brought out to me. Another 5 minutes pass and no food to be seen. I ventured back inside to ask if the order was ready to be bluntly told 'no' with no ETA or apology. Finally got the food after half an hour.

Terrible communication and non existent customer service.

The fried rice left a lot to be desired. Hardly any ingredients apart from the rice itself.

This was the last time I'll be ordering from Chow Garden which is a shame as I know it's an Epping...
