Dragon Garden III - General Tsos Chicken Lunch Special with Pork Fried Rice. - Chinese Near Me - Milford, Connecticut

This is a carry-out-only spot, and it was pretty busy when we stopped by. Despite that, the staff was very pleasant. It's definitely a hole-in-the-wall kind of place, but the food was very good and the portions were huge. The boneless ribs were a nice bonus since that's not something we usually find where we're from. The General Tso's chicken was delicious, and the chicken lo mein was solid. Unfortunately, the mala chicken was a letdown. And I forgot to take pictures. Overall, it was a good experience. read more

Best Chinese food place in Connecticut and I say that with the upmost confidence. I have lived all over Connecticut. From Norwalk to Hartford, even Tolland at one point. Call me a vagabond I guess. Chinese food is the most difficult thing for me to enjoy because finding a place that is consistent, good and affordable proves to be impossible. Until now. I was working in Milford and I was craving Chinese food and I started the big search and hunt I do for a spot to try, usually it takes at least an hour of reading reviews and trying again to find something. But as soon as I saw this place, I knew I had to go here because the ratings and reviews were the highest and the best I've ever seen for any Chinese food restaurant ever. And across all platforms. Google reviews and yelp have this place rated higher than any other Chinese food spot I've ever looked up. I knew that meant something special. I knew that meant that unlike all the others this place is consistent. Period. And good. And it's true. Since that first visit I've gone back 5 other times now. Sometimes just for two egg rolls for a quick lunch. Their egg rolls are the best I've ever had. The best. Always so crispy but never burned or over done, never dripping grease as you bite into them, just absolutely perfect. And the fried rice, the pork fried rice is delicious. I've gotten a pint as my lunch and as my dinner reheat quick meal, and I was just in heaven. And the pork isn't like what I typically get in pork fried rice, usually I'll get tiny pieces of pork that are always equal in size and barely have any taste, they're just there for texture, and it's obvious that the pork fried rice isn't made fresh at those spots, but here, here they are making it themselves. And it's noticeable. It's tasteable. The cut up pieces of pork aren't all identical to one another. And they're not so tiny that you barely notice them. And the rice. Oh the rice is so delicious. It's the best fried rice ever. This place is iconic and the owners are the sweetest and most friendly and kind people I've ever had the pleasure of ordering my meals from. I don't live in Milford. But man, I wish I did. Just for this spot. read more

The people who own and run this restaurant are hard working , friendly and loyal to customers. A regular dish I used to get in NY was made with bean sprouts. Every time they get bean sprouts the wife calls me to tell me they can make my dish for me. Great customer service ! read more

The food is always good and affordable and ready quick. Also, the workers are extremely nice and will actually answer the phone 20 minutes before close. Unlike some other places would recommend to anyone. read more

I don't even know where to start! First, I've noticed that the restaurant had a 4.5 rating, Witch most Chinese restaurant are not above a 4. Another awesome thing was all of the awards on the wall! They had melon mints imported from China witch I thought was cool. The lady that gave us our food and took our order was extremely nice and made me give this restaurant another star. Lastly, the food was AMAZING! The fried rice was airy, and light! When I usually get dumplings from other Chinese restaurants, their doughy, but these were big and crispy! I would defiantly eat here again! read more

The food is soo good!!!! Especially the fried crispy noodles!! You have to try them, they go so well with any combination platter! Thank you Dragon Garden! You make me feel grateful for delicious food! Amen.. read more

Great place for takeout, food is always good and their prices are reasonable. They have very good soups to keep you warm during the winter.

Hole in the wall place but without the hole in the wall wow. IT's got such rave reviews, but it feels like any other cheap greasy chinese place. Price is good, but you'll be feeling the grease for a few days after you eat it. Nothing wrong, as long as you know what you are getting. You aren't getting some amazing food that's super special, you're getting what I would describe as chinese food like any other random place you would stop in a town, the price is cheap. The wontons in the wonton soup use super thick skins so the wontons are more dumplings than wontons read more

This is the best place in Milford to order Chinese take-out! The restaurant is husband & wife, very friendly and welcoming! Everything is made fresh daily and delicious ! They've been open over 20 years so you know they're doing something right. The only issue is for some reason they ended delivery..hopefully they will start that up again soon! read more

Recently tried Dragon Garden after hearing people on social media rave and say it's the best Chinese in Milford. I started with and egg roll and ordered Hunan chicken. The egg roll was soooooo good! My Hunan chicken was a good portion, but I found it very bland and not spicy at all. My BF had his usual sweet and sour chicken with white rice. I heard no complaints about the white rice while were eating (how he judges Chinese food establishments) so that was good! We may come back at some point, but I'll order something different. For now Dragon East in Branford is my fav Chinese restaurant. read more

Quality meat perfect rice good place. This is the best small Chinese restaurant. That I know of

I enjoy their services on what I ordered. The delivery person was cooperative and thanked me for the order.

Good, no complaints. Fast and reasonably priced. There are three tables for eat-in dining, but I think this establishment is mostly take-out. For a nice bonus, take a look at the first table; the owner's (?) kid has set it up as an office and studies there. All of his accomlishments and certificates are on the wall. Sweet. read more

Best Chinese food in Milford! Never had a bad order. Been ordering since 2017. I rather get takeout then go to sit in Lin's Kitchen in Orange or Lao Sze Chuan also in Orange. read more

Dragon Garden 3 is a great little neighborhood restaurant. I get lunch here once a week, usually the garlic beef lunch special with wonton soup with an eggroll on the side. It's delicious. And under $10. Try to pay cash, they appreciate it ;] read more

Glad we found this place on Yelp while in Milford. Really good Chinese take-out! Delicious egg roll! I can't consider myself a Chinese take out expert because I hated Chinese food growing up and I still find the menus confusing beyond the basic General Tso or Orange Chicken. But, I've come to appreciate and enjoy Chinese food and this meal was terrific. I had the chicken and Chinese veggies (didn't want a dish w/ fried chicken), my son had the General Tso's. He prefers our regular Chinese place in our hometown, but I thought the meal was flavorful and good. I'd return for sure if in the area. And I loved the egg roll. So tasty! We went in for take out. Staff was friendly and helpful with menu questions. Service was quick. Highly recommend! read more

Dragon Garden III - Gluten free general tso chicken.! - Chinese Near Me - Milford, Connecticut

Connecticut local. I've had Chinese food from all around Fairfield County. This was the best I've had.

Best Chinese takeout around. All of their food is good and fresh. Family is wonderful! They have the very best Wonton soup!

In short, friendly, tasty, fast and money-saving. Large size is much more filling than many of the similarly priced meals from other restaurants. If you're aiming for "genuine Chinese cuisine", this is a great place to go for fried rice, noodles, lo mein etc. Chef's specialties are great too. Mala chicken, triple delights and happy family are delicious. read more

I would not suggest dining in however the food is great for takeout and delivery. I like the orange chicken and egg rolls. They are quick as well. Your food is usually ready in 10-15 minutes. read more

My go-to place since I moved to Milford many years ago! I had sampled many a places, but kept coming back to Dragon Garden. I've even gotten takeout from fancy eat-in restaurants in town, but they can't hold a candle to Dragon Garden. I find amazing consistency with their meal preparation and taste, and the smiles the owners offer up every time you walk in cannot be beat. It's a very hard working family where even the kids help out between their studies. Aside from getting a wonderful meal, I'm always happy to support this small family business! read more

Mom and me went here for dinner last night. I read....that they had booths. It's actually a booth and a half. The first one looks to be used by the owners kids....to do their schoolwork / homework. That was fine. I'd like to say....if you do sit in and eat there....and it's cold out....wear heavier clothing....cause it was a bit cold. The heat was on.....cause I heard it....but it wasn't on high enough. I told the young guy at the counter that we were eating our food there. And it was a bit of a wait. I think cause they were getting bombarded with phone orders. When the food came out......it came in one big paper bag....like we were taking it home. We weren't given our soups and my steamed dumplings first. It all came out at once....which we've seen many times before. I ordered the shrimp with black bean sauce and my mom ordered the pepper steak combination. I must say...all the food was very fresh and delicious. For the money I believe I got around 6 to 8 shrimp. And they were a good size too. Moms pepper steak was chock full of beef. Our soups (chicken rice) was very savory and good. Mom got an egg roll with hers and she liked it.....I ordered a shrimp egg roll and it was also yummy. Lastly I ordered steamed dumplings....they were good but I would say use less ginger in them. I'm not a lover of ginger and I think if they used half of what they put in it.....it would be perfect. So.....all in all....the food was excellent. The restaurant needs to turn your heat up....if someone is waiting for food or eating there. Also think you should offer hot tea too.....if someone is eating there and it's cold out. Loved loved loved your food.....we will be back!!!!!!! read more

Our first time going here after our former "go to" closed, the replacement store was just okay and the next popular place is way too expensive. The Dragon not only meets our price point but tastes delicious as well. This will likely be our new "go to" Chinese restaurant. read more

Dragon Garden III - Broccoli With Garlic Sauce and Roast Pork Fried Rice - Chinese Near Me - Milford, Connecticut

This place is great. Prices are fair real old school china place. Like super Chinese in a good way, they got the family working, there's the genius kid at the register. Food is tasty, fried rice is on point. If you order like a lot they always got you with the 2 liters. Definitely my go to Chinese spot in Milford. Legit, legit. read more

I'm so in like with this place :) I ordered because of the reviews. Let me begin by saying I am not a fan of Chinese food. It makes me sleepy and I know that it also can be very unhealthy for you with the usage of MSG and lots of grease, and oils, frying etc. I try my darndest to stay away, but after trick or treating yesterday my family was hungry and all of the pizza places were closed. I had company and they wanted to eat as well. Since it was too late to cook, I used Yelp to find restaurants with good reviews near by and Dragon 3 popped up. The woman on the phone was polite and easy to understand. The food came quickly and was soooo fresh! I had roast pork with vegetables and roast pork fried rice. My kids had lo mein with fried rice. I also ordered chicken wings with steamed dumplings. Nothing was greasy, everything was flavorful and nothing needed anything extra...no soy sauce, no duck sauce....absopositively nothing! I am so darn happy. My only issues, and they are small....the menu on here is WRONG! The prices are off by $1-$2. I suffered major sticker shock when the driver told me my total. So issue #2 is the driver. My total was $33.25 and he gave me $4 change? Huh for $40. So when I asked him where the rest of the change was he pulled out 2 more dollars. So I asked him again where the rest of my change was? His response, do you have a quarter. Now I am a VERY fair tipper, #1 as a Yelper and #2 someone who believes 20% is yours until you bring yourself down. This guy was on his was to more than a $5 tip until he tried to pull a fast one....pissed me off and earned himself $2.75. Do not think holding onto my change is going to shame me into giving you a tip or make me feel like I owe you more than you deserve! In this case, he earned 1/2 of the tip he should have received. read more

Best Chinese food in the area! We've been here several times since discovering it a few months ago and it never disappoints. Delivery wait times can be lengthy but we are more than happy to pick it up. This place is also a gluten free persons dream, SO many options, they use cornstarch and soy sauce. You have to specify GF but many of their items can be made with these accommodations. The Orange chicken is my favorite! The rest of my family loves their glutenous food as well. read more

In town for a quick work trip, and after a long day of travel really wanted something besides drive through or hotel's microwaved meals. The hotel gave me their menu, and although I'm always a little leery of ordering Chinese delivery as a non-local, I decided to just go for it. SO HAPPY!! Everything tasted super fresh, with colorful veggies freshly steamed and not loaded with sauce. The small sizes are actually very generous portions. The chicken is of great quality, all pieces were identifiable and all white meat. I read reviews about the dumpling and had to try them...oooh how I wish I could have these delivered to my house back home. Fast delivery, very friendly on the phone and in person. Anytime I'm in Milford, this will be my go to delivery. read more

Had been hearing everyone say to try this place. I finally did and it is awesome. Everything I have tried from the Kung Pow Shrimp to the Mushroom Egg Foo young has been exceptional. Highly recommended, probably the area's best Chinese food hands down. read more
