    Mongolian Chicken Combo
    Wendy F.

    Food was very tasty! Ordered a few combos and they came with an entree, rice or noodles, pot stickers and a side (soup or salad). Was not a fan of the general chicken my sister ordered, was not good at all, flavor was off. Everything else was decent and I had no complaints. Service was good and inside was pretty big, looked like they had a full bar.

    Lunch specials
    Justin L.

    I'm always down for Chinese lunch specials! Theirs comes with fried rice or white rice, chowmein, and choice of meat. The general chicken and salt n pepper chicken is right on par! Very enjoyable and affordable. My kid is a connoisseur of crab wontons so in her opinion they were "bussin." Some places seem to not season the filling inside the fried wonton but not here! Really flavorful, with a hint of sweetness at the end. It's only $3.90 to add them on to your lunch special, highly recommended to do so! Overall 3 stars. It was as good as I expected, and met my expectations.

    Honey Glazed Walnut Shrimp Dinner Combo which I will be ordering again!
    Deborah L.

    I wish I had taken pictures, but everything was so delicious. I ate too quickly and forgot.! I ordered the Honey Glazed Walnut Shrimp Dinner Combo. There was more than enough food but I added Cream Cheese Won Tons. Happily full & satisfied & you can't best their prices were Customer Service. I had hurt my foot earlier in the day and was really having trouble walking. I mentioned this to the girl when I arrived to pick up my order and she happily walked it out to my car! It's that kind of Customer Service along with the delicious food that keeps me coming back!

    Asian Side Salad
    Tiffany B.

    Tried this place off of Door Dash. I was surprised to see that they give great portions. One combo plate is definitely shareable. I thought the chow Mein was very flavorful. The side Asian salad was a favorite. I believe the prices are justified for the amount of food they give. Overall, the food was cooked well and tasted great. I'll have to make this one of my go to places for Chinese food.

    Orange chicken combo

    Ordered General chicken from the lunch menu and it was really tasty. Also added on hot and sour soup. Which was full of flavor. Overall everything was great. Service was quick and friendly.

    Stopped here while heading back up north. The food was AMAZING!! The service was fast and professional. The ambiance of the place really makes it a really nice experience to dine in. 10/10 we are definitely coming here again.

    Honey Glazed Walnut Shrimp
    Valarie O.

    I found a bug in the walnut shrimp I ordered, which was a very concerning discovery. When I called to report the issue, the staff member who answered the phone was sweet and apologized but said she could only offer a credit per the manager's instructions. When I asked for the manager's name, I was placed on hold and then told that she couldn't provide the name. Eventually, she said the owner and manager were the same person and mentioned the name Michelle. When I requested a refund for the shrimp, which was part of a $90 order, I was only offered a credit. The staff explained that their policy requires the food to be returned--something I couldn't do since I had already discarded it. I offered to send a photo of the shrimp as proof, but this was also declined. Overall, I'm disappointed with how this situation was handled. While the apology was appreciated, the lack of transparency and the refusal to offer a refund left me feeling frustrated. I hope management reconsiders their approach to customer service in cases like this.

We had family dinner for my aunts birthday and she wanted to try this place out. I heard a rumor that it was the second Restaurant of the original tealicious on Freeport, but they recently sold licious. I personally love Tealicous. They are always so very busy, so don't expect customer service there, just great food. Licious has the exact opposite, great service and okay food. We ordered the following: Szechuan green beans- cooked perfectly with a crunch still. Lacked flavor- not spicy. Fish and tofu clay pot- the fish tasted sweet, oddly. The fried tofu was perfect. Juicy and soft, Beef short ribs skillet- very fatty. You are paying for fat. Maybe it was a bad day. Tiger prawns with pumpkin- it is battered with salted egg, but it's not that salty. I wish it was saltier because I love salted egg. Battered and fried perfectly!!! The Tiger prawns are HUGE!!!!!! I've never eaten such big prawns in my life. The pumpkin was so soft and sweet with the perfect crunch from the salted egg batter. IT JUST NEEDED MORE SALT. Lots of pumpkin! Lobster- lacked flavor and was a very small lobster with not a lot of meat. Salt and pepper fried tofu for appetizer- yummy yummy. Perfect. Whole roasted duck- flavor was perfect, but the skin texture was stale. It wasn't like how it tastes at Tealicious. I don't know why the skin wasn't crunchy. Shrimp and egg chow fun- lacked flavor and too wet. Service was amazing for our two tables total of 18. They kept checking on us and even packed all of our food. There were two servers and only 3 other small tables with ours. The restaurant is quite small and is only for up to I believe 35 people on Theo occupant load signage. I would come back if I craved the Tiger prawns with pumpkin, but nothing else we tried. Maybe I'll try the fried rice next time and do an updated review.

Either way, they are lightening fast and you can always Dash.

I love when they are straight and tailess with puffy/crunchy batter, the serving was legit too. The wings were yummy but a once in a while thing I would order if you ask me. The batter is thick and super crisp like a shell and so salty and flavorful in a good way. Came with lots of onions and jalapeños as it should and they chicken itself had a nice almost garlic marinated flavor. The chicken itself was piping hot and the best part. Just 'a lot' to eat-eat for a dinner. The Mandarin chicken was my least favorite just because it was a bit sweet for my liking. The upside is all their chicken this style is always big juicy all white breast meat chunks, nothing unrecognizable. My boys loved it, me not so much due to sweetness and being bready. All in all I still love this place and it is consistently good. If you love orange chicken get that for sure. When I picked up it was a tad warm inside the restaurant. They had the back door open in the kitchen, and it was 103 as a high so it wasn't refreshing to sit down and eat there.

Tbh, I was a little nervous since there haven't been many recent menu photos or reviews. We took everything to-go, but it was piping hot out of the kitchen and only took about 10 minutes from ordering at the counter to leaving with the goods in-hand. There is plenty of space to dine-in as well. Their menu is huge - almost overwhelming - but they have a little bit of everything. I stopped in specifically for BBQ Pork steamed rice rolls, which can be tough to find at most places outside of a dim sum menu. The price was reasonable (I think $6.75) and it was a great portion. Very flavorful, tender, and a delicious sauce! We also got an order of steamed BBQ pork buns (3 total). Surprisingly, I don't think it was the same meat from the rice rolls but that's OK because it was almost shredded consistency with a good flavor. The bun is a bao-style bun, so less fluffy than my preferred steam bun type but perfectly steamed nonetheless. We ended with an order of sesame balls (3 piece). I was surprised at how much oil was in the to-go container, and a little disappointed that there wasn't more of the sesame coating, but they were so FRESH! I assumed the inside would be red bean but instead it was jelly cubes that reminded me of square boba jellies. Possibly pineapple flavored? It was not my thing but also my fault for not confirming it what was inside. Will definitely be coming back for rice rolls!

Maybe the 20th??) of our dear dear friend, Hawaiian Elite TERRY K. coming back to visit with us! THE SETUP Such an incredible restaurant with great seating to support an incredible array of Chinese dishes and beverages! I'm actually in agreement with my friend & fellow Yelper David V. who said, "This place is like a high-quality Panda Express. Is that a good thing? You decide!" And David is right! By that I enthusiastically interpret his opinion as Tea Garden being incredibly ACCESSIBLE to every palette of customer: from those who are just casual Chinese food eaters, to the far FAR more demanding Asian appetites of friends who have much more experience with the wide diversity of Chinese cuisine and know how to ask for it, focusing on seafood, chicken, beef, vegetables, noodes, chilis, spice! PARKING AND "Parking"! It's kind of wild, but I find this more and more to be the case with great ethnic cuisine establishments, that delicious restaurants such as this find themselves in a STRIP MALL. Hey, nothing wrong with that, either! Cheaper rent means cheaper prices on the restaurant food. It ALSO often means tons of free plaza parking as in this case. So much for the car parking, not about where you "park" yer butt! We had a crew of eight (8) and all of us came with the attitude of "Let's try as many dishes as we can!": the large round tables with the large lazy-susans were the best method to make that plan work. If you are only 2-4 people, regular seating at rectangular tables will work just find. THE FOOD! And as I indicated earlier, we had a plethora of dishes: * Delicious broth & veggie soup to start * Crispy Eggrolls with Sweet & Sour Sauce * Crispy Shrimp with Sweet Chili Sauce * Chinese Chicken Caesar Salad * Fried Rice with Chicken & Shrimp * Broccoli Beef * Chicken Tso Chicken....and.... ...I can't remember what else! There was a LOT, but it becomes a blur after all the chicken and beef and shrimp and eggrolls I was devouring! THE LOWDOWN Suffice it to say, if you come with friends and an appetite, you are going to be soooo satiated! And in addition, I lucked out since half our friends were from the Bay Area and they sent me home with a large (LARGE) share of the leftovers that lasted me the week after that weekend banquet! Good food! Reasonably priced! Tons O' Fun!

    Best DEAL for Dim Sum in Sacramento!…read more Be prepared for a LONG line! But honestly, for the price, I can see why this place is so popular. The restaurant was under its original owner, Nathan, for more than a decade before changing hands and shifting its focus to Chinese dim sum. They also switched from the traditional dim sum carts to a paper checklist menu: you just check off what you want and hand it to the server. Service: Friendly and efficient. Ambiance: Very casual and family-style. The décor is a little dated, with low ceilings. Definitely has that old-school mom-and-pop, hole-in-the-wall feel. Restroom: Decent and clean. Food: Overall, decent. Not the best dim sum I've had, but considering the prices, it's a pretty good deal. *Porridge: Good texture, but there wasn't much egg or meat in it. *Siu Mai & Har Gow: Tasty, but I wish the wrappers were thinner. *Chicken Feet & Bean Curd Skin Roll: Good flavor and nice and tender. *BBQ Pork Bun, Steamed Pork Bun & Custard Bun: Warm, fluffy, and enjoyable. *Egg Tart: Lightly sweet with a nice texture. *Supreme Soy Sauce Chow Mein: Too dry for me and almost no flavor. This was probably my least favorite. Overall, the food is decent, but the prices are the real winner here. If you don't mind waiting in line, this is a great option when you're craving dim sum without spending a lot!

This restaurant is a to-go only restaurant, and gets plenty of traffic from the area. I went midday (3:00pm) and there were at least 4 customers in and out during the time I was there. While I was checking their menu, I decided to order, since I remember how good their chicken wings are. I ordered the chicken wings, and a lunch combo with chicken with black bean sauce. The combo comes with chow mein and fried rice and an egg roll for $13.99 but I asked for steam rice instead of fried rice. Unfortunately, I didn't check my plate before leaving the restaurant because they gave me all steam rice and no chow mein. Despite the error, their chicken wings are still the best, and the chicken with black bean sauce was very good. I would've like to have tried the chow mein. Also, I didn't notice that they charged $16.99 for the plate, which was a little steep considering I got no chow mein. Some of the condiments are extra, like the hot mustard, so ask for it before they ring up your bill. I'm sure I'll be going back for the chicken wings because it's made fresh and it's really good.
