Every time we order Chinese food, we order from DG. The Hot n Sour soup is not some gelatinous blob when it cools... it's actual soup and it's delicious. The sauces made there are not the typical goo that you know doesn't feel good after you eat it... The food feels clean and tastes great as far as typical Chinese food goes. It has been our go to Chinese take out place for years and will continue to be! read more

Your run of the mill Americanized Chinese takeout restaurant. Can't say anything served here will impress anyone, but if you're craving your usual "bootleg" Chinese food (which happens to be my guilty pleasure), Dragons Garden isn't a bad option. It's got your typical dingy restaurant look, but the food taste pretty similar to other similar restaurants. On our 1st takeout trip here, we ordered shrimp with lobster sauce on fried rice and mixed vegetables on fried rice lunch specials. In addition, we also added an order of pan fried pork dumplings, a small egg drop soup and wonton soup. Unfortunately, it's an extra $1 for the addition of a soup with a lunch special, but, honestly, it adds up to about the same price as competitors. As for food, it is what it is. It's not terrible for this type of food, but not the best either. The sauce in the lunch specials were on the thick side, especially the shrimp with lobster sauce. I had never seen such thick lobster sauce before, so was a bit taken aback when I opened the tupperware. Flavor-wise it was OK though, so I figured I would survive the meal. The soups were unfortunately very watered down. I didn't get to try the pan fried dumplings, but my wife didn't like them mainly due to the thick skin, so if you're a fan of the thick skin pork dumplings, you'll probably enjoy them from here. One thing I will say is that the owners were super friendly, specifically the woman at the front. They're clearly mom and pop owned and local. Is this my favorite Americanized Chinese takeout restaurant? No. Does it mostly satisfy the craving if you live nearby? Yes. And that's all you need. read more

These gen z idiots give bad reviews for service who cares the food is amazing!! It's not about how rude they are or how they answer the phone Food Trumps 2024 all of it. Stop giving bad reviews on how you feel pu$$ies. And give it on how it tastes! read more

Delicious food and nice portions. Nice owners, not a place to eat in though. Try it it's that's good

Not the best but definitely not bad. Have been ordering from here for over 4 years now, owners always courteous, prices have stayed pretty much the same, order is always accurate, portion size is decent or better. Occasionally I'm short 1 fortune cookie but other than that it's a solid place. They definitely made their business feel safe during Covid which is a big plus. read more

I've been coming here for awhile now. Never had an issue. My family and I Like the food.

I will not be returning to this restaurant ever again rude service . The lady that works there is just super rude and she overcharges you she goes from saying one price to another. read more

Food is good especially the vegetable fried rice. This is my place when we don't want to cook.

Great Chinese food in the area. This is our go to place for a quick meal. Food is good quality and always cooked well.

have not been here in awhile! very disappointed! called in order and husband picked it up! on returning home,realized missing one item.called and was told by woman,she didn't hear item ordered,but its ok,cause we weren't charged for it. ok! the shrimp with lobster sauce,which had there in past,was terrible! the sauce was like water,no taste! chicken chow mein,was also not good. the only item that was ok,was the won ton soup. will never be going back there! read more

They charged me for an item and didn't include it in the bag. When I called the the next day. (They were already closed when I discovered the missing item) they said I should have called yesterday. Then the next thing they said they didn't charge me for it. I read back the receipt with that item on the it. Then they said wait til Tuesday and if the person who filled your bag remembers not putting your item in there then you can have what you paid for. I will never ever order from them again. read more

Their food here is good. their egg rolls are delicious and I never a fan before Dragon Garden. One of the best local restaurants in the area. read more

The Food is always good but the workers always make you feel like your annoying them. They hide the soda in the back (20oz only) and when you ask for one they give you a look like "why are you making me walk all the way to the back when we are busy?". I guess I should be glad the food is good but it just annoys me that I feel like I'm inconveniencing them . read more

I have been here many times. Often times order is wrong, I always feel rushed on the phone and even feel like I'm being scolded sometimes. Rude service. I would understand if the food was over the top good, but it is meh at best. I won't go back now. Oh well... read more

Woman on phone is rude as hell. To top it off the prices are ridiculous and they usually mess up our order! Not worth the aggravation when Wang Wang Super Taco is literally right across the street. Very unpleasant experience! Was better when the cute Philipino girl worked here. read more

I'm so surprised there are not more reviews for this place. It's always packed whenever I order from here. NOw what can I say, Chinese food is chinese food - greasy and fattening! This place though does not suck. The food is always really good and doesn't taste old and gross to me like other places may taste. We always get Boneless spare ribs which are so tasty with an egg roll, which does not pour oil out like other places. We also get the General TSO and the brocolli tastes nice and fresh even though it may very well be frozen. This is our go to place for chinese take out in our area. Give it try! read more

My family and I went to New Jersey for a short time vacation. I came upon this restaurant; It looks a decent place from outside, so I ordered a Beef Lo Mein, Fried Chicken, and soup. I was impressed with the quality of foods they served here. It's so good and cheap compared to what I had in the past. Can't believe it's 2.5 stars. read more

Lived in paramus for 24 years and until about 6 months ago their food was good. Now it's disgusting. No taste and strange changes such as yellow gravy for egg foo young?!? read more

Not very good but serves good when last option and really really REALLY hungry. The fried chicken is not cooked well, moreover it seems that the chicken is very old and uncleaned. I did not enjoy their service being that I felt rushed upon ordering. Do not recommend eating here at all unless very very but I mean VERY HUNGRY. read more

Every single time I call to order, the woman on the phone either tries to up sell me or argues that I'm not ordering enough to warrant delivery. Then I tell her I'll call someplace else and she takes my order. After reading other Yelp reviews it seems like their customers are united in the viewpoint that their customer service sucks. When people take time out of their day to criticize your business publicly, you should take it as a positive and make appropriate changes. View it as free advice on how to improve. It seems like Dragon Garden could be improved by either changing the attitude of the woman who answers the phone or changing the woman herself. Either way, until something is done to improve their rather dismal customer service they will continue to lose business to Wang Wang which is literally right across the street. Under normal circumstances, with direct competition literally a 30 second walk away, you would think a business would have to be run fairly well. Not so here and, for the life of me, I can't understand why. Too bad because their food is decent. Oh well.... read more

Never go to this take out restaurant. My daughter was in there Friday night A young girl maybe 20 years old was taking the orders She accused my young high school aged daughter of being gay. My daughter is not gay and told the employee that. The employee continued to say rude and nasty things to my daughter and used the F work My daughter was very upset but because she paid before getting her order she stayed while this awful person continued to harass her. The next day I went to the restaurant and spoke with the owner who has known me as a patron of her restaurant for 15 years This women was of no help I believe this was actually sexual harassment and I called the police I am going to file a complaint about Dragon Garden and this employee. read more

Food used to be good. Now is disgusting. Miserable, grumpy employees take your order.

Tried a bunch of Chinese places local and nothing was that great. Some of them even had 4 or 5 stars rated by other users. I just happen to be in Maywood and figured I give Dragon Garden a try. To my surprise it was one of the best in the Hackensack area. Their food is good, has a good taste and was fresh. I have ordered there a few times now and will be ordering again. As for the other review posted. They are all over priced and yes sometimes people make mistakes and you don't get what you ordered. I personally never had a problem with Dragons Garden.... read more

I have to say that this place is the best one out of 3 nearby.(One is in the same mall with Boston Market and the other one with 7eleven on Passaic st). So, I go here if I want Chinese around my house. But, it's still not the best, not even in NJ. read more

This place is the worst. All experiences have been blahhhh. Tonight was the end of the road. I call to order on way home from work... Lady tells me to hang on, I do she comes back asks what I would like. I order General Tso Chicken Combo... She asks... Do you want sauce on the side. Now it was noisy in the background there and I've never heard this question ever asked before when ordering this from any place. So I said what did you say. Annoyed she repeats, do you want sauce in the side, I said no, you can put it on the chicken. As I am about to continue with the ther teams I want and that I want the chicken cooked extra crispy... She is all rushed... Goes "is that all"? I said no I hVe some other things and as I'm about to say how I want the chicken cooked she pretty much annoyed says" hold on hold on". I just said forget it and hung up. I understand sometimes places get busy but this place was just rude and for a marginal at best Chinese place they should reevaluate how they do things. read more

Great chinese food. Sesame chicken is some of the best around. I don't dig the long sprout things in the pork fried rice but generally just pick around them. We order chicken and broccoli a lot and the only negative thing is sometimes there is too much sauce. We often swap the egg roll in the combos for spring rolls, which I really like. They are a decent size and have a lot of filling. This is definitely a take out place, no place to sit and stay. I have no desire to try another chinese restaurant in the area. read more

I always thought that this place was good. It is not great. It is not consistent. However, I do know I am not going to get an inedible food. That is what I expect from a small Chinese place. read more

Hit or Miss! Usually the food is great there and I don't get an upset stomach but sometimes it is super greasy and doesn't taste the same as when i ordered it the last time. The people are nice that work there, and they are really quick with processing orders. This is one of the only Chinese places in Maywood. read more

this place sucks!! overpriced and gave me the wrong order. terrible read more
