i called the restaurant because my dasher said they ran out of duck sauce. she called back and ensured me that they had duck sauce and provided my bag with lots of duck sauce and soy sauce and called me to let me know when the dasher picked my food up! 10/10 customer service!!! read more

Haven't eaten here in a while. Last time I had their food it was good but after reading multiple reviews about people finding things in their food and rude customer service I decided not to return. read more

Do not waste your money or time here. They gave me the wrong order and when I called to let them know, the lady that took the wrong order, had the audacity to argue with me. Instead of rectifying the situation they chose to go the route of poor quality service. They don't care what they serve you. They just want your money. read more

I've already been back, it's only been 1 week. I ordered the honey chicken and shrimp fried rice for my first visit. It did not disappoint me at all. It was piping hot, fresh to order, savory, sweet, sticky, and had a little hint of garlic. The shrimp fried rice was surprisingly fluffy, flavorful, and the shrimp were a little juicy. I also ordered the fried dumplings with this meal and had crab rangoons. The dumplings were so juicy and were paired with a dark, rich and salty green onion soy sauce. It only took a little of the soy sauce to add to the dumplings. They gave me a large container, but honestly I would have been fine with the same size container as the Rangoon sauce. Speaking of, those were so creamy, not a huge crab flavor, but had a lovely crunch and were pocketed perfectly so I could pour the sweet and sour sauce inside for the perfect bite. Second visit I brought a guest and they loved their food as well. They ordered the General Tso chicken with Lo Mein noodles instead of fried rice. It was a small upcharge but totally worth it to them. It came with large chunks of white meat chicken, fried crispy, and tossed in a spicy but tangy sauce. They liked it a lot. I ordered the Sesame chicken with shrimp fried rice and crab rangoons ...again. I enjoyed this meal as well, but the honey chicken will be my favorite. I also requested a little spice added to mine chicken and it added a little kick. The service was nice and patient. The wait is understandable because they have constant orders coming in so an average 20 minute wait time. The dining area is always kinda empty when I come, only one or two tables. But the decor could use a little upgrade, maybe paint, wallpaper, or a new look on the inside. But they have done very well with everything and would love to see this restaurant grow. Also, there is shared parking between two to three other business nearby and is located off the main road of Williams Blvd. so don't drive too fast or you will miss it. read more

Hadn't been here in years but had an envie for their eggplant with pork and garlic sauce. The All Day Special comes with 2 huge portions of shrimp fried rice and an eggroll. It was better than I remembered. Still enough for 4 meals. Even the eggroll was excellent. And check out the prices! read more

The food was good but the service was terrible!!!! The lady taking the take out orders had a horrific attitude and what was the worst part was I had never had their food before so as I was asking questions about the food based on TikTok videos she was so short and cutting me off. I don't care how good your food is, if your service is trash you will never get my money again!!!!!! read more

I was nervous to eat her due to the mixed reviews. We wound up doing our meal as takeout. My husband got the imperial pork with combo rice and cho cho. I got the orange beef with combo rice and crab Rangoon. And we added an order of egg rolls. The good: everything but the egg rolls! The pork and beef were delicious, nicely fried and had good flavor. The rice was also delicious and it tasted fresh. The Cho Cho and Rangoon were very good. The only miss was the egg roll. It was SO much cabbage and had an off putting slightly sweet and cinnamon taste. I won't hesitate to order from here again! read more

Did a Google search for Chinese food near me and this place came up. Delicious food at a great price. The portions were huge! Enough leftover food to last a few days. The service was great although there were only 2 tables occupied, including mine. However, they do major take-out business. Constant take-out patrons and food delivery people. read more

Excellent Shrimp with Lobster Sauce and Fried Rice. Tastes better every time I order it.

I ordered the beef and broccoli meal, it was horrible. Rice was over cooked, as well as the beef. Literally the most obnoxious texture to where you can't even enjoy your meal. read more

We ordered Lemon chicken, moo goo gai pan, and general's chicken and they were all delicious and came in such large portions that the containers needed rubber bands to stay closed! The lemon sauce was not overly citrusy, but the chicken was so well seasoned that it did not need a big tang From the sauce. Vegetable fried rice was also delicious and included large pieces of broccoli, pepper, onion, and carrots. There will definitely be leftovers to enjoy tomorrow! read more

Imperial garden on Williams in kenner served me this rice. Seriously disgusting. Ate some yesterday, fed this to my kids, then refrigerated overnight. First thing in the morning this is what I find. I've been eating leftover rice my whole life, never in 30 years have I seen rice look like this. I'm disgusted and disturbed. The restaurant gave me the runaround all day only to tell me that the owner says they're not going to give me my money back. The employee said his name was Leo and gave me a fake number for the owner. Stay far away from this restaurant. Disgusting Rice From Imperial Garden In Kenner https://youtu.be/mYQMIRlTjKo read more

I had read that this is as authentic as you get in the New Orleans area. While I'm not sure about that sentient, I did enjoy a meal here with a big group of friends. The portions are huge, so maybe don't each person order a thing like we did. Some highlights: shrimp fried rice (I know, I know, cliche, but it was really good so make this your rice dish and thank me later), crispy grey sole, and mapo tofu. Ask for the Chinese menu. read more

Nasty, nasty food here! Last 2 times I ordered I received the nastiest chi ease food I ever had! When I brought it back they were rude and would not refund me! The "chicken" was as hard as a rock....almost broke my tooth trying to bight in! It stinks in their too. Stay away! read more

My husband and I love the shrimp fried rice here. We get it with extra shrimp and extra eggs but it's worth the additional price.

Kind of a hole in the wall restaurant with good food and LARGE portions. Flavorful sesame chicken. Enough food for two or three people.

The lo mein had NO flavor at all. I was really disappointed. I ate a little and through the rest away. The dumplings were just okay, a little bit soggy despite being fried. I didn't finish them either. Based on this meal, I won't be coming back. They may have other yummy items on the menu but It wasn't this. read more

If I could, I'd eat Chinese food all day err day (but then again I'm Chinese so I gotta say I'm pretty biased haha); I think this restaurant's leaning more towards the Cantonese side (from what I could tell from the dishes and the people working there) of "Chinese" and if you want NON-panda-express-like food in New Orleans, this place should definitely be considered. So my dad once told me you can tell how good a Chinese restaurant is by their hot sauce (if it's home made), and their hot sauce was.. not what I expected, but in a good way (it was hot temperature wise, not spicy, but unique); that's how their food was too: not what I expected, but in a good way :) What I ordered: Pi Pa Dou Fu (their most popular tofu dish): lightly fried tofu covered with a savory sauce- tofu was tender and yum. *Tip: flavor your rice with the sauce! Free white rice comes in a separate bowl/metal thingy. Da Dou Miao (apparently it's called pea shoots in English? I never knew haha): stir-fried with garlic; nice and light, but filling too. *Tip: it's not on the menu cause it's not always available, so definitely ask for it if you like veggies (even if you don't it's a good choice)! This is where I fail you: I don't know the name of the last dish and I can't check it cause it's also not on the menu but the waitress recommended it: it was a fried fish called "long li" with green bell peppers; this dish was really special cause the chef actually cut the meat off of the bones into pieces and fried both the meat and the fish skeleton and placed the pieces on top of the skeleton; the flavors developed kept me coming back for bite after bite. p.s. I uploaded a picture of it :) *Tip: it's $27.95 so a little on the pricier side (their dishes usually range from $10-$15 ish). Although good, the whole meal was more expensive than I thought it'd be :/ but then again that's cause I'm spoiled by all the cheap and fabulous Asian eats of Los Angeles... oh California how I miss thee haha. I recommend this place over China Rose; am I allowed to say that on Yelp? haha ers... read more

Great neighborhood restaurant! The staff is always friendly even when they are busy. They only have a few people working at any one time between tables and to go orders, so sometimes you have to be a little patient. When I went last night they were slammed with to go orders, and the phone was ringing off the hook. The lady taking the to go orders turned to help me as soon as the phone stopped. I had also called in, so I paid her and only waited a few minutes for the food to come out. They serve large portions here and you will always have leftovers no matter if you dine in or take out. With this restaurant I would always suggest you go pick up your order yourself. They do deliver, but it's a $20 minimum + $3 delivery charge. PLUS they only have one man doing all of the delivering and I'll be honest he's pretty slow. So go pick up an order or eat in and enjoy! read more

Yes! Finally! I believe this is the only place in New Orleans (Jefferson) that has real Chinese food, and I would never have known if it wasn't for Yelp! Shortly after we walked into the restaurant and were promptly seated, the waitress immediately brought the Chinese menu out for us (don't worry, you don't need to know Chinese to read this menu). I guess she knew I was there for some serious business. ;p Unfortunately, I couldn't do as much damage as I wanted, there were only two of us - the rest of the party couldn't make it. I ordered pretty standard fare, chicken corn soup, yang chow fried rice, roast duck, and garlic gai lan (there were out of the da dou miao). The soup was the right consistency, thick with egg, corn, and chicken, could've done with a tad more salt or white pepper. The duck was okay, a bit on the leaner side. Great portions of food, ate about half of everything. The gai lan was good, fresh, and crisp. The rice was also delicious, however, I think there might have been a tad too much oil, or the pan was too hot, I was trying to pinpoint a certain taste. Next time when I go, I'll make sure to order different things and have more people come as there was A LOT of food. The Chinese menu is served family style. Did I mention our waitress was super nice and quick? A side note, I don't generally dictate how people should eat, but I noticed some girls ordering from the regular menu. The regular menu really does look more like americanized chinese food, the fried rice was even the typical color that you get with americanized fried rice and the spring rolls the typical that you see as well, like if you were to order from Five Happiness. Overall, I am very happy. Now I know where I can go to get some of my home comfort foods. Now I need to venture forth to Milkfish and get me some filipino food! read more

When you first enter this place you are greeted with a smile. The owner I assume came out from the kitchen to say hi which was nice. The decor in this place is very plain, but when a restaurant pays more attention to their food than the decor I'm fine with it. The waitress wasted no time to take our drink order. While she was away the owner came over and told us their house special which was their beef chow fan. We took her words and had an order of the dish along side with roasted duck, shrimp fried rice, and their house special tofu (pi pa tofu). The beef chow fan was good; best chow fan noodle I ever tasted actually. We were told they made their own noodle which is believable since it was tender and tasted like home made. The roasted duck was average to say the least. Shrimp fried rice was great, it could use a little more soy sauce, but still I enjoyed it. The shrimp was tender and wasn't over cooked like most places. Their pi pa tofu was just ok to me. Nothing stood out from this dish and for some reason everyone loves it. Maybe I'm missing something or maybe it was just a day off of the tofu dish for them. Still the staff was friendly and helpful. Finally a place that lived up to their ratings on yelp. read more

Man I'm not a Chinese food connoisseur but this place has great Chinese food. I don't eat Chinese food too often but when I do it's usually from Imperial Garden. I've tried a lot of dishes on the menu over the years and pretty much everything I've had is good authentic Chinese food. Prices are about $10-13/dish but they also have lunch specials for around $7-8. They give you a lot of food for your money. I've eaten their food probably about 40 times over the years but have never eaten at the restaurant. This has always been a take-out spot for me. read more

Not bad. This place gives you to much food. So, if you have problem with that then don't eat here. Great food and always serve hot. Nicely done. Service is awesome. The ambiance of this place is of a traditional Chinese joint. Nice job guys! read more

Although this place looks like a total dive inside and out, it has some of the BEST Chinese food around! Seriously cheap chinese capital of NOLA. Everything here is GOOD. the eggrolls are always so good I order an extra order to go with my every day special! They have "Every Day specials that include fried rice (which is amazing), soup if you dine in, and an egg roll. They use local shrimp in their shrimp fried rice and its perfectly a bit garlicly! The portions are huge and i have ordered to go and the quality is just as good. An order of shrimp fried rice to go comes OVERFLOWING in a white styrofoam box packed from top to bottom.. no lie. For good, cheap fast chinese you cant beat this place! p.s. They only have one rather dirty high chair for kids read more

Clearly, I am a Chinese food snob. Having grown up in Monterey Park and San Gabriel, the mecca of Southern California Asian food, I just have to be. I am, however, a snob who has found a satisfying and real Chinese restaurant in New Orleans. The decor is not much, shabby and small, and reminds me a lot of the C-rating spots in LA that get an A-plus rating on food. I went with a Chinese family that's sort of adopted me here, for my birthday, and when we arrived, we were surrounded by wai guo ren eating shrimp fried rice and eggrolls and orange chicken crap. We however didn't order off a menu, and everything was DELICIOUS. When we walked in, the proprietoress told ah yi that they had 1) fresh fish, just delivered, and 2) duck to roast. Amazing meal and I can't wait to go back. Dishes we had: 1) Cold dried octopus with sesame and hoisin sauce - this was their daughter's favorite. I wasn't a big fan because I don't like sweets or cold foods, but not bad. 2) Soup - kind of weird. It had egg and scallions but also little bits of meat. 3) 2 kinds of pork chop: pork was cut into strips, one was salt and pepper fried, the other sweet and sour. Again, the savory one was my favorite. 4) Green vegetables - I think maybe watercress, stir fried with garlic 5) Pi pai dofu - Soft fried tofu stuffed with a little bit of shrimp and scallion, in a savory brown sauce. Delicious, this is one of their specialties. 6) Steamed whole fish - with cilantro, ginger, and scallions. So tender and fresh. Absolutely wonderful. The server recognized the family because she also works at Hana in Uptown. The family who runs the restaurant is Cantonese and is very friendly. Supposedly this is one of two actual Chinese restaurants in New Orleans, and I'm definitely on the lookout for the second! read more

Typical American Chinese fare. Not terrible. Not great. Fried rice was sparsely more than rice (little egg or vegetable and no meat). Too much gloopy sauce on the entree (roast pork w/vegetables) and the corn soup had no corn flavor although I suspect plenty of corn starch. read more
