Lantern Garden - Downtown Anaheim — Restaurant in Anaheim

I have never went to this store to eat in person,, I have always ordered through doordash. I have ordered from doordash at least 6 times & every time the food is so amazing. The food is freshly made unlike other Chinese places where the food sits all day. I usually order the shrimp with vegetables and a side of fried rice .. let me tell you ..they do not skimp on the shrimp ! You get lots & lots of shrimp! The veggies are crisp & fresh.. also the fried rice is amazing I've also had the shrimp fried rice & it's also very delicious & filling. The portion sizes of 1 order are enough for 2 people to eat. When ordering items with meat they never skimp on the meat & don't overload it with onions to save money like other Chinese places do. This is literally my favorite Chinese restaurant! They do not over season their food so it's not extremely salty like other places ...the flavors of the vegetables & the meat can really shine through! I believe this place must be family owned because of the care that's put into the cooking. I usually order at night for dinner around 9:00 or 10:00 & my food always shows up piping hot, fresh & delicious! I usually don't even write reviews... but I feel like this place deserves its recognition! because they are always top-notch with the food.. even if I have special requests they always follow the special requests!! I love this place.. If I ever do show up to this restaurant in person (instead of through doordash) I would like to give a big thank you to the owners & the chef for the amazing quality of food & service!! Thank you Lantern...

Got dinner here for my family and the food was so good that I had to write a review about our experience. I ordered delivery from door dash app and got the house special recipe orange chicken, kung pao chicken, bbq pork, all 3 flavors of chicken wings, 2 large wonton soups and 6 boba drinks. Lets start off with the food, everything was amazing, it was all perfectly seasoned and cooked and I never had orange chicken like the way this place does it, it had the perfect amount of crunch and flavor that I never had before with orange chicken. They also have 3 different flavor of wings, i'm not sure which one was which but all 3 were soooo good, we really enjoyed the chicken wing dishes. Their wonton soup was great and was still super hot like it had just came out the kitchen when we got it, the vegetables were fresh and so were the meats. This place gives very generous portions of food for the price and its all freshly made which is a plus. Now lets talk about the drinks, we got 3 large thai tea boba drinks and 3 honey green tea with fruit jelley drinks and lets just say that everyone completely finished their food and drinks and wanted to order...

Everything was gross. I picked this place to eat due to the reviews but after having it I’m convinced that everyone in the reviews just isn’t used to good Chinese food. I ordered just a house special fried rice which included “beef”, chicken and shrimp. The “beef” was not beef at all, it looked like some type of fat that comes off the actual meat, it was tough, chewy and, inedible it was closer to jerky than anything else. The chicken from my knowledge was chicken but did not taste like it. If the questionable ingredients weren’t enough every spoonful of rice contained so much grease you could see it glistening off the rice and side of the spoon. The only thing positive about this place was the friendly staff, but the food is borderline inedible. Worst $11 dollars I’ve spent out...
