Still on the hunt for our go-to Chinese delivery spot. Wonton soup flavor was good but wontons were very firm. Egg rolls were very bland. Szechuan tofu had a nice flavor but it felt like it was missing spice, and it was very very saucy. Pork and mixed veg were okay but forgettable. I'd like to try this place again but first impressions were just okay. read more

Gourmet Garden - a plastic container of food - Chinese Near Me - Center Moriches, New York

See all

Gotta be one of the worst Chinese foods in center Moriches food has no taste not fresh

Quite simple, insects/bugs in food, big ones. My partner and I decided to give this place a shot on our lunch break. Dumplings and spare ribs were good. My partner then opened his pork fried rice and stirred it to find an adult spotted lantern fly in his food... if you can't spot an insect that large in your establishment and in the food you're serving, I don't want to imagine the other things that must go unnoticed. No thanks. read more

Gourmet Garden - 5. Roast Pork Fried Rice (with spotted lantern fly) - Chinese Near Me - Center Moriches, New York

Chicken in Garlic sauce with vegetables is very good. Friendly fast service. I've ordered same 4 times

this chinese was so fresh and so yummy. amazing wonton egg drop soup and the general tso combo is spicy but still so yummy. super close to my house will be back read more

I'm really bummed out... I've been trying to locate a decent Chinese restaurant in Center Moriches... okay, I get it! They all are take out-no dine in...here's the bottom line... I've tried basically all of 'em near me... here's the bottom line: They are ALL no better than mediocre... now... I'm old and just moved here from the NW, I know what good Chinese is supposed to taste like and these local take-outs aren't even close... To be specific: how often do they change the oil in their deep fryers... how fresh are the ingredients... why the heavy breading... why is there no real "sweet n' sour" or "General TSO sauce"... other than the use of hot chiles there's no difference... In summary I'm done looking... on the upside we're surrounded by great Italian food, some really excellent Diner's and other options... Cheers read more

Food and service is always amazing here. Everything is priced so well and they always give you free sushi rolls with your order.

Years back, this place made good food. Now it's awful. The inside looks dirty and man, I think they cover up the kitchen for a reason. The last order I got was simple stuff. Gen. Tso's. I ordered crispy with white meat. Instead it came overcooked and chewy. Wonton soup. Broth tasted like dishwater and the wontons were either old or poorly made. They just disintegrated. No chew, no taste. And they gave me a free quart for spending over 30 dollars or whatever, and it just went in the garbage. The containers were worth more than the soup. Shrimp LoMein. The only thing acceptable. At one point I wondered if it was a mistake letting my kids eat it out of fear of food poisoning. Thankfully nobody got sick, and my kids did enjoy the LoMein, but that's the last order I place from there. The whole area lacks good old school chinese food. Season's of China is fair to middling. Tony's is wayyy overpriced. And Gourmet Garden is scary. read more

Food pretty good, Staff was nice, food done quickly, only take out but you can order on Yelp, DoorDash, UberEats.

Purchased food yesterday, not sushi. Everyone came down with food poisoning last night into today. Horrible they should close. Guess they didn't throw all the food out when they closed for the virus. Do not eat there! read more

Sushi was very fishy tasting . Never again. Nice people. Dumpy place . Sorry but my good.

My favorite Japanese food in Central Suffolk County. Oh and they have Thai & Chinese too! What a great place for lunch! I'm a vegetarian and sometimes feel like I'm getting ripped off with Japanese specials. But at Gourmet Garden, I feel like I'm getting my money's worth. Sushi/rolls are fresh. I love the avocado salad too. Miso soup is wonderful. Salad is delicious. I usually get Sweet Potato Tempura Rolls. WOW! The staff is helpful & professional. Prices are great. Sometimes I'll drive an extra 30 minutes to visit this place. Worth it. Easy to find- right behind the Wendy's & next to Waldbaums. read more

Gourmet Garden - sweet potato tempura roll with spicy mayo - Chinese Near Me - Center Moriches, New York

Wow. The biggest dump I have ever been In. Terrible service food was even worse. Burnt dumplings tough chicken. Wonton soup was like dishwater. read more

Always get great food here. But tonight I had the best Pork Egg Foo Young ever! And I grew up eating Chinese food in Chinatown, NY. People give this place a try, you will not be disappointed. read more

This place is right near my home. My sister and I always enjoy walking here. It is definitely not one of your typical Chinese places. I guess from the outside, it looks usual. Certainly isn't! I go here a lot, and it is always good. Today I had a lunch special that was gigantic and incredibly cheap considering how much food I had! I had miso soup, a peanutish Thai salad and three sushi rolls for $12.95. Amazing. And these weren't standard rolls (such as 4 pieces each), these had 8 pieces. x.x Jeez. So I had 24 yummy pieces of sushi. I like that they have so many veggie options. I LOVE the sweet potato roll! It has a delicious bite to it (aka crunch :P). With a sushi special (or any special for that matter), you'll definitely be taking plenty of food home. :) Another interesting thing about this place is that they do have DESSERT. I don't know how we ever found out, but my sister loves the fried ice cream here. Try it! read more

I've tried other places for Chinese takeout and we always come back to Gourmet Garden. Their food is consistently good and fresh. The prices are good. The owners are the sweetest people. Their customer service is excellent. I highly recommend Gourmet Garden! read more

This is one of the better take-out locations (and as far as I can see dine-in restaurants), in the area. Since my wife isn't as big of a Chinese fan as I am, she's been happy to get sushi from here weekly for the majority of the last year. Though there are fusion restaurants like this elsewhere in the area as well, we have found this one in particular to be a bit better than other options. I only eat a certain number of dishes so I should tell you which ones those are so my review has a bit more relevance for anyone reading it. I like BBQ spare ribs (on the bone or boneless), egg rolls, pork fried rice, shrimp with lobster sauce, steamed dumplings, and infrequently an order of Tso's chicken. The dumplings are some of the best I've had. The pork fried rice is done very well (not dried out like other places), and the spare ribs are typically tasty though they don't use any kind of sauce if that's what you prefer. The shrimp with lobster sauce was not my favorite, it seemed a bit watery, but the General Tso's chicken was very tasty. The wife loves the Spicy California Rolls and the spring rolls. Neither of us, when we think about it, care much for the shrimp entrees they have. The shrimp rolls just didn't seem very good. The vegetable tofu soup is absolutely delicious, however, and cheap. You get a large quart of it for around four dollars. We've never eaten in the restaurant, we've only gotten takeout, but the place is normally busy even in the middle of the week. I'm surprised no one else has reviewed it as it does seem very popular. I've never had any mistakes with my orders where they forgot any item, but they have occasionally forgotten a pair of chopsticks or a fortune cookie. The guy who answers the phone is so good that he can usually tell me what my phone number is after I've given the order because he actually pays attention to his customers. That's a plus when you want consistency, but a minus when you don't want to look predictable. This is in a shopping center so there is plenty of parking. There is a small bathroom, and they do have a sushi bar. read more

Your food was horrible! I had roast pork with Chinese vegetables and all there was 2 pieces of onions and 2 pieces of carrots no snow peas. Very disappointing. I've ordered before and the food was very good. You better watch you're portions. I wanted vegetables and was hardly any. Oh well back to seasons of china!!!!! read more

Horrible food the worst sushi I've ever had They pour mayonnaise on it which is really strange but not a terrible idea over all but fish wasn't fresh read more

Went for dinner last night. Sushi has seriously declined:( used to be super delish now barely ok. My love got chinese (chicken & broccoli and egg roll) they kept the door open the entire time we were there.. Super hot and files were annoying! never sit down again. Possibly take out chinese if that so disappointed:( read more

horrible. customer service way below par. owners would not even get on phone to even attempt to rectify their wrong. beware...they take back food that was in someones home already...totally against health regulations and honestly, just disgusting knowing they do that read more

As far a sushi goes, this is probably the best place in a 20 minute drive. Always fresh and made to perfection. Great freebees, nice staff. The guy that makes the sushi couldn't be nicer! Big plasma tv for sports fans! The Thai food is pretty solid too. Not a fan of their chinese food, although it takes a lot to impress me as far as chinese goes. I drive 30 minutes each way to get chinese read more

Ordered delivery from this place , where do I start , it took well over an hour food was ice cold , my 5 yr old daughter ordered chicken and broccoli it was so bad she actually said it tastes like "poopy" next we ordered 2 California rolls with brown rice and they drenched it in spicy mayo , I was disgusted and I called up and they had the nerve to to me that's how I ordered it btw $14 for 2 California rolls , we are in in center Moriches not NYC SHAME ON YOU"" anybody that reads this stay away from this place unless you want horrible food and ripoff prices , this place would last 1 week in Nassau , there are much better choices in the area read more

I ordered online at 5:30. Called at 6:30 to confirm that my order was on the way, and I was told that it was out for delivery. Called again at 7:00 to ask why my food wasn't there yet, and I was informed that they are not doing delivery tonight. That would have been nice to know at 5:30. read more

It's a Chinese/Japanese restaurant. This is my "go to" place for Japanese take-out. They have a pretty good Maki Roll selection. Fish has always been fresh and it seems to be reasonably priced. They have cool "extras" that they throw in if you order over certain amounts. Depending on your bill you could end up with a free large wonton or miso soup, free california maki roll, free egg rolls, free teriyaki chicken, etc! Adds a nice little touch. It's a very small place (not much seating) but it's located in a shopping center so parking's not an issue. Despite the small size, I've never experienced much of a wait; take-out time is 20 mins max during the busiest hours. Haven't tried the Chinese food so I can't comment on that. Also I think they may have added some Thai options to the menu recently. read more

Tried this place a few months ago. Decent sushi takeout in an unassuming location; a welcome surprise.

I am a Thai food junky and have been known to drive great distances for a good phad thai. With Gourmet Garden I can stay local and get a good thai meal at a great value. My business is on Main Street and we often drive the two minutes down the road to take in lunch. We have yet to have a bad meal. Maybe not world class but worthy Thai in our back yard :) read more

I ordered sushi from here and it was TERRIBLE. The rice was definitely old and sushi was not fresh. And this was the 3rd time it happened. I thought I'd give them another chance since it's so close to my house. Never again. read more

I ordered and picked up my food this past Saturday. I am mad because my charge card shows an additional 5 dollars was added and not what I signed for. I called and left a message letting them know this and expect a refund/credit on my account for this difference. I can understand if they charge a deliver fee but this order was picked up by myself...so not a happy camper and won't be ordering again from them. read more

The food was pretty good and they were quick with making the food and taking our order which is always a plus. We came during lunch hours where they have a pretty good selection of food and drinks at a very affordable price. I got the sushi lunch special which came with three sushi rolls, soup, and a salad. The sushi rolls were small but it was still filling. The only complaint I have is to shut the doors! There were a lot of flies we had to keep swatting away read more

We stopped by the other night on our way to somewhere else. I specifically chose this place because of great reviews. The staff was very friendly. The food on the other hand, was not so great. The spicy mustard was not spicy at all. In fact, it came very close to tasting like French's Yellow Mustard. I've never encountered Chinese mustard like this. The fried noodles they put on the table were overcooked. We decided that we would overlook this if the food itself was good, especially after my husband ate the Wonton Soup and enjoyed it. We received our dinner specials (which are not on the menu, we had to ask for it). Overall, the food was pretty bland. The pork fried rice was not greasy at all, but it barely had any flavor. My husband would not put the sauce on his egg fu young because it was oily and did not taste good. I had the chicken and pineapple, which was ok. The eggrolls were probably the best thing on our plates, and even they were bland. We will not go there again when there are much better Chinese places in the surrounding area. read more

Love gourmet garden! I would pick here over Tony's anyday.. Love that the portions are broken into 8 pieces rather than 6 because it feels as if you are eating more... Awesome salads and cheap for delivery. Food comes out quick and delicious! read more

Going downhill for ten years, finally hit rock bottom. tonight, my last visit Ever: Masamun Beef Curry, 3 ingredients missing and instead of real potatoes they threw in French Fries. Seriously. French fries? Wantons are not made onsite and are almost always undercooked. 3 out of 3 Sushi makes us sick. Where are my california rolls, again, really?!!? in conjunction with the severe language barrier that ends up in misorders We are DONE. $40.00 in the toilet. VERY PISSED. read more

I remember this place was good back a few years ago. We visited again yesterday, it was rather disappointed, and we will never go back again. The Miso soup was horrible, I had one sip and couldn't stand it. I ordered a Chirashi, about $16, but the portion was like an appetizer, the fish was fine sliced like smoked salmon! I am a big sushi lover, and I have never had that super thin fish slice before. For a $16 Chirashi, that's definitely not cheap. Consider the size of the serving you get, that's a very expensive "dinner". Together with 2 California rolls, and the Chirashi, that was $28 + tax. I was nice enough to give $3 tip. Come on, the customers are not stupid. What is the owner thinking? read more

I've been going to this place for years. I'm talking about since I was in High School eleven years ago. Though I think it has changed owners several times since then. The food is always great. I've never once been disappointed. I wont get my sushi, or Chinese food anywhere else in the area. The staff is always incredible, friendly, and all together super courteous. read more

My family and I are regulars at this Chinese/Japanese restaurant. The food is excellent - much better than most take out restaurants. We usually eat in. My kids love the Sushi. I like many of the Japanese items, as well. Spicy chicken roll is my daughter's favorite and the California Roll is my son's favorite. The only thing that is a problem with eating in is that they are sometimes very busy and it makes the service a little slow. Other than that, you should definitely go! read more

Gets the order wrong or leaves something out 50% of the time. Then they want you to wait for your next visit to fix it. With so many choices in the area, pass this place by. read more

High prices for pretty dull food and extremely difficult service. Ordered food to go and when we got home we were missing an entire entree! Once we got the right orders they were flavorless.. would not recommend read more

I had ordered delivery and they screwed up the order and told me the next order I would get one for free. The next time I went to order from there I called to remind them of the free pad tai and the girl cursed at me and told me I`m an f****ing liar so I cancelled my order. Very disrespectful.The next day the owner called back and said she didn`t know I was supposed to get it and that was it. No apology. Incredibly disappointed. read more

So sad :( I checked reviews first but I wish I had minded the bad ones. The sushi here is so bad, and I will eat sushi from stop and shop! they poured mayo, MAYO! over all my rolls., Alaskan tuna and eel, and even once I scraped that off it was just disgusting read more
