King Garden — Restaurant in New York

How does this have only 4* ???

Now, there’s different levels of CHeeTOS in NY. (Chinese Hood Take Out Spots) and it all starts at the staples. The combo Alexander Wangs, fried rice & soup lunch options- smash. This is top tier in any hood in the 5 boroughs. No Cap- Juanito.

Ask yourself, if that hits- what else is good ? They even have Dominican menu options, albeit small. It’s Chino Latino and they not even trying.

The Singapore curry- underrated. Them mugs was like crack, imo. Beef and broccoli- win. Egg rolls- hits.

Then I get my food and he forgets the can of sprite he says my delivery guy just got here which was a lie unless he flew. I HAD JUST PAID. He said he put the sprite. He didnt, he said you are lying to me and just being difficult. I was...

The food is okay but pretty watery and soggy. My biggest gripe is that the price was nearly double what was listed on the site that they have associated with their google page. The prices aren't outrageous or anything, but it's really shady to have prices that are double what you have listed on the site.

It's also annoying that they make you pay after getting the food. Had I known the prices on the site weren't accurate, I would have knocked a few things off my order. Probably won't return because the food isn't on par with the prices and I know there are better options in the area at the same...
