I only get delivery but the staff and food are excellent. I'm never waiting long. They're a great local business.

The food was fine, but our waiter was appalling. Thought he was a comedian which was fun at first but then quickly went too far. By the end of the meal, he was dropping f bombs and made some incredibly inappropriate double-meaning joke about "drooling p***y." That's when we walked out. We are from out of town so nothing to compare this experience to...but my recommendation is to steer clear. read more

Careful going there at lunch time, there's a waiter that is very rude. The mostly bald guy, makes bad corny offensive jokes. We used to go there for lunch all the time, he killed it for us. restaurant is great! waiter needs to go. read more

Great food great service, we didnt dine in we picked up take out. Would like to dine in on our next visit.

If I lived in Elmira, I would DEFINITELY be getting food from here when that Americanized Chinese food craving strikes (pretty sure they also have more traditional dishes too). Boyfriend and I split a Pu Pu Platter, which was beautifully presented. I also had shrimp & vegetables in garlic sauce and they did not skimp on the shrimps. He ordered chicken & broccoli and that was tasty too (was eating the leftovers the next day like a goblin LOL). The interior of the restaurant is pretty & would make a lovely date night spot. Our service was also fantastic. read more

Mmmmm. I loved this place! When I visited Elmira, my mother-in-law wanted to get an authentic Chinese meal to accompany watching the 2022 Winter Olympics. She knew that this was the place to go! We did a super simple lunch with egg rolls, Lo mein and some black Chinese tea. I'm not normally an egg roll kinda girl, but these were perfect! There was shrimp and pork inside, which was a nice surprise. They were cooked perfectly and the Lo mein was delicious. Also, they have tea bags, and we steeped the black tea at home and every sip was perfection - I'm not kidding, I had three cups of tea, I loved it that much. Next time I'm back in town, I will definitely be paying another visit to this place! read more

Beijing Garden - Egg roll with Lo mein and tea! - Chinese Near Me - Elmira, New York

My favorite place to get Chinese food! Their crab rangoons are the best! It can be quite pricey though!

Very cute spot, excellent service. They serve you hot tea coming in which was nice. We ordered crab rangoons and fried dumplings as an appetizer. 10/10 Crispy Shrimp 10/10. The kids loved the chicken & broccoli and the sweet sour chicken. Definitely coming back! read more

I was really impressed with this restaurant. I was just in town for the day and honestly was not expecting to like my lunch this much! The egg roll was piping hot and had tender shrimp inside. They served hot tea and crispy noodles to start which was a nice touch. We had the tangerine beef which was really fresh and tender. The service was really good too. I wish I had a Chinese place like this in my town. It was a very pleasant atmosphere to enjoy a nice lunch. read more

Best Chinese food in town. Fast delivery and great food. Never had a bad meal here. Been in business for many years.

Food is amazing. The best quality Chinese around. If we want good quality we always order from here. I downgraded to 4 stars solely because of the online crappy service Ekit sucks so bad when trying to order online. Every time I order I have 8 items and it only allows you to see 4 items. The software is very user-unfriendly. I usually spend 20 to 30 minutes just trying to order through Ekit and that is way too long to spend ordering. I also can only see what I ordered, not how many of each item i ordered. But the food is so good that I am willing to deal with the faults. read more

Consistent, clean, polite and convenient! This place has been a community favorite. FYI if your attending A Cleams Center event reservations are required. read more

Went to Beijing Garden for lunch. Had a small crowd,food was great, good size portions and service on point. We shared a poo-poo platter and really enjoyed the meal will be back for sure. read more

Food is always fresh and hot and maid to order . Food is always hot and waiting when ordered to go . Never had a bad meal here

Food very poor. Everything tastes frozen or old. Don't understand why I can't get a decent Chinese meal in this town

We celebrate Chinese New Years here just about every year since we've moved to Elmira:). I am Chinese American and as long as I pre-ordered the whole fish the day before then our meal was pretty authentic:). My two children and husband and I enjoy celebrating there. They have nice staff and owner:). Parking was a bit scarce on the street, but other then that it was pretty nice:). Gong hay fat Choy:). read more

Ordered food from Beijing garden yesterday July 6 ordered house fried rice and general toes chicken number one the whole fried rice was nothing more thin mint rice with soy sauce on it and then the shrimp and chicken and pork without it destroyed in the general toes chicken the sauce was tasteless it was awful though this is the first time I've ever experienced anything so bad from Beijing garden but just keep an ion them to see if it gets any better than one star read more

I have never eaten inside but have gotten take out from here. Their food was delicious and delivered hot and fresh

The BEST CHINESE restaurant I've been in the world. I really mean it! I've never had better tasting food, better service and the owner that I know is one special person. Everyone in town loves him! Just a great business I won't tell you how long I've been going there! read more

Consistently excellent Chinese food a true gem in Elmira. We love the walnut shrimp and tangerine beef.

Just got back from China and this is the closest thing you will get in Elmira that is Chinese food. The hubbie and I love to go here. The food is great. Steamed Dumplings, Yum! Be forewarned. We ate here today and after receiving our bill we noticed that the waitress added a $5.00 "gratuity charge" on our bill. I asked the owner about this and he seemed as puzzled as I was. He went to talk to the waitress and then took the charge off my bill. We are still going to be regulars here, but we will just make sure to double check our bill before paying. read more

Just got back to the hotel after eating dinner at Beijing Garden. There was only one other table of diners at 7:00 p.m. on Wednesday, August 21, 2019. Where were all the Yelp diners that gave this restaurant such high ratings? We ordered beef chow fun, Shanghai Pan Fried Noodle, Sesame Chicken, and Beijing Garden Special Soup. A bowl of fried rice was complimentary. The service was fine. The soup was good, although the wontons in the soup were a little tasteless and were made with thick wonton skins. The Sesame Chicken and Shanghai Pan Fried Noodle dishes was pretty typical of what might be expected of a Chinese restaurant in the middle of Elmira NY, a Caucasian stronghold. However, the Beef Chow Fun was absolutely terrible! I have eaten Beef Chow Fun at dozens of Chinese Restaurants and the Beef Chow Fun at Beijing Garden was the worst I have ever eaten. The beef and noodles in the dish were extremely bland. I couldn't believe that they served this dish the way it tasted. This dining experience was yet another head-scratcher as to how a restaurant could get such high ratings on Yelp. My reviews are honest - I can't explain many of the other Yelp reviews. read more

Yup, I'll say it "best Chinese in Elmira area." Love the atmosphere. Consistently good food, may be little pricy for Chinese, but well worth it. Egg rolls not the best. read more

Always a nice meal and pleasant staff. Whether dining in or picking up take-out, no complaints. Portions are generous and quality is good.

This is a hit-or-miss place. Some items, such as hacked chicken/noodles with sesame sauce, are consistently awesome. Some stuff is not, and -again - it's a hit-or-miss. We went the a week ago, before Enforcers' hockey game. My husband had a decent garlic/pork dish, my Szechuan been was beyond bland. It was labeled as spicy; it was not. Adding hot oil helped. Still, it is still the best Chinese restaurant in downtown Elmira... perhaps because it's the only one. Which makes it (also) the worst. Hence my review. read more

We stopped by late in the afternoon. Greeted and seated promptly by very attentive and friendly waitstaff. Hot tea and crispy fried noodles served right away. Low mein, shrimp with cashews and chicken with almonds were delicious. Nice light sauce and tasty vegetables. We'll be back!! read more

Overall pretty good, but I order the schezuan beef and there was absolutely no spice to be found, despite it being labeled as a spicy dish. Still tasty, just wish there was more kick to it. read more

The only seated Chinese restaurant in the area. Always consistent, and good service. The taste might be catered toward more for American clients, and not completely authentic Chinese, however compared to many of take out places in the area, this place is by far better than the others. If I am in town I never miss dinning here, and see Denis the owner. read more

Pretty decent Chinese food with good prices and service. The best thing about this place is the vintage interior. So many sit down Chinese places have gone out of business over the years. They all seem to be takeout nowadays. But this place still has the very red and a bit dark (and wonderful) "Chinese style" interior and is a nice spot for dinner. read more

First time ordering here tonight and I am pleasantly surprised just how good this food was! We usually order from Happy Family and if you've ever ordered from there, you know just how necessary finding a new Chinese Restaurant is! We are looking forward to doing more business in the future! P.S "Beijing," being the Capital of China is SO FITTING for this place because it most definitely is the best in the area! read more

Good food, fair pricing, killer fried rice. We have eaten here several times over the year, and have yet to be disappointed. read more

One should be compelled to go out of their way to dine here. It is the paradigm of what a typical person in the U.S. should expect of Chinese cuisine. I judge this based on one experience. If you dine here, the egg foo yung is over the top. Selection....excellent, and curiously, a great variety of mixed drinks. This alone is makes it worth a visit. Price... great prices, it is closer to 1.5 dollars. Quality...as I previously stated, over the top. Atmosphere...this is the gold standard of my expectations-quite and clean Service...who can best this pinnacle of East Asian hospitality? Composite score---100. This place delivered in every category. read more

Other reviews consistently say this is the best Chinese food in the area. I can't speak to the area, but I didn't think the food at this restaurant was very good. We got a bean curd dish and Buddha's delight. The bean curd was falling apart, but tasted ok. The Buddha's delight included some very un-tasty seitan bits, and was very salty and unpleasant. Maybe the meat dishes are better? The tea was tasty and a nice touch. The waitress was nice enough. read more

This is my favorite Chinese restaurant & I don't even live in Elmira! The staff is always super friendly & service is so fast! Everything is delicious, portions are huge!! read more

I heard a lot of good things about Beijing garden so I decided to try it I was very disappointed in what I had gotten I ordered the large sesame seed chicken and Two Pepsi's they told me it would be a 45 minute wait. a hour and a half rolls by and when the food finally gets to my house (on water street three blocks away from the store) the container of chicken was very small even though I bought the large the food was soggy and cold I will never be buying from here ever again read more

This was the best Chinese food I've ever had. Absolutely delicious we cleaned all our plates the kids loved it as well! Extremely clean, great service, all around a wonderful choice we will be back! read more
