Unfortunately, I am still searching for a good Chinese restaurant in the Floral Park / New Hyde Park area. This is NOT it.
First time ordering Wong's Garden so I ordered a bunch of stuff. Here's my take on the food...
Spicy cold sesame noodles. Too sweet and had little flavor. No salt or herbs and wasn't spicy. I ate three bites before it went into the garbage.
Fried pork dumplings. OMG they were disgusting. The dumplings themselves were obviously old and dried out. The insides were a greasy slimy mess. That also had no flavor. Try salt, soy sauce or maybe some fresh scallions. Sigh. I couldn't swallow the one I tried and I opened the others to see if the disgusting center was the same. They all were inedible.
Hot and sour soup. Was like dark dish water. Was NOT Hot or sour. Nearly flavorless and contained none of the shredded pork I enjoy in ever other hot and sour soup I've had.
Vegetable spring rolls. Crunchy on the outside but slimy on the inside. I was able to swallow the one bite I took before they went into the garbage.
Deep fried cheese wantons. I had high hopes. Unfortunately, they are just unseasoned, un-herbed, cream cheese filled fried dough.
General Tso's shrimp. It's the only thing that didn't go right into the garbage can. My wife thought they were fine but that they had too much sugar in the sauce.
There is a trend here. They serve cheap ingredients, poorly put together with no care about the final products. Is there no pride in the food or the kitchen? Certainly seems like there is none.

Read moreWhere do I start. Delivery time 55 mins and counting. This will be a business review not personal. Here’s my issue. It’s 2019 time to change things up. I asked for steamed rice and vegetables with chicken wings they said that they can’t do that. Who would have thought steaming food would be difficult where someone would charge 4 more dollars. I thought you boil water and food goes in. This place doesn’t allow you to order healthier additions to some sautéed items. Maybe I want steamed rice with sautéed vegetables. Maybe I want sautéed chicken and rice with steamed vegetables. Those who have questions to what I mean well let’s put it this way. Is white steamed rice cheaper than fried rice ? Yes it is. So if I want steamed rice with steamed vegetables and fried chicken the answer should be.....”yes no problem!” Why the three stars- Staff nice Food is good for the items you order. Service is ok. Delivery time should stay at the 40-45 min range any longer then that customer should be notified. Total delivery today 1hr 10min. I wanted with all my heart to turn the delivery driver away. But because I know him to be kind I let it be and know it’s...
Read moreChinese food isy favorite food, and this is my favorite Chinese place. They are a family owned business and deserve a way better rating then they have. The people complaining on here seem to be people complaining that they couldn't change the menu pretty much. This is their business their menu and they do amazing everytime. I've been ordering for 7 years now and they have only messed up 1 time and it was just someone forgot to put my FREE egg roll in the bag, they delivered it immediately once told. My food is always here way before the time frame they said they deserve 5 stars hard working family. If I could add one suggestion it would be to add beef fried wontons to your menu I have only found 1 Chinese place on all of long island who had beef fried wontons pair it with some egg fry young gravy, the most PERFECT thing that I have ever...
