It was 6:30 and there was only one other table with 2 couples in the entire place which was not a good sign but we stayed anyway because by then we were really hungry. The greeting at the door was as not warm by any means. Our server was the same.. a young Chinese gal that was actually rude to the people at the next table. I was appalled but said nothing as it was not my business. The food was good but not as hot as it should have been. We certainly would have enjoyed it more if it came to us hot. I usually tip 20% but I gave her 15% and that was a gift! Someone needs to inform these people that how one is greeted in a restaurant is of utmost importance and leaves a long lasting impression. We are your patrons and the people who keep you in business!! The scorpion bowl for two was tasty. Won't be going back that's for sure. Hopefully they will read this review and make the necessary changes to get more people through their doors!

This was our first time back to GG in a couple of years - yikes! And not gonna lie, it was…read moredisappointing. We had takeout, which was packed carefully and packaged as neatly as ever - the hot items in one bag, the cold items in another bag -to make it home in a reasonable time. Where things went wrong: Chicken Teriyaki skewers had zero teriyaki glaze and instead were coated - WELL COATED - in a non-removeable green curry covering. There was absolutely no connection between these skewers and teriyaki. None of us cares for curry, so that was trashed since the cat sat back and said "absolutely not!" Pad Thai with the Chicken and Shrimp option had two (2) medium shrimp, so I guess that counts as multiple shrimp . . . the chicken was dry but at least it was plain, no curry. However, unlike the well coated curried skewers, there was virtually no Pad Thai sauce. The sauce that makes the bland rice noodles come to life was MIA. After much discussion and pulling the stuck together noodles apart, we did think that a very scant spoonful of sauce had been added to the very center of the container, making it a bit more Pad Thai-ish than the bare noodles in the other 2/3 of the takeout container. Pulled out the chicken bits and those two shrimp and trashed the rice noodles because I didn't even have a store-bought packet of Pad Thai sauce on hand to zhush it up! On the cold side, the go-to order of sushi Chirashi was good, fortunately because we were down two dishes out of three! Note to self: live and learn, keep to the Japanese side of the menu, and stop expecting a restaurant to do more than one style of cooking well, it never happens the way you hope it will!

I went to Gourmet Garden last night. And let me tell you the food was fantastic. Whoever is in the…read morekitchen creating their Chinese food has really put their heart and soul into it. It was really great. I am a white woman raised by white parents. In the 80s my dad went rogue into taekwondo for a black belt and immersed himself fully in the culture. He began making Szechuan food. I've eaten a lot of Chinese and Asian food and i don't usually go for it because there's so much bad and greasy. I prefer Japanese, usually, but when my dad started cooking Szechuan, we tried a wide variety of very authentic restaurants in Boston Chinatown, I know what I'm eating. This one hits the mark. We tried three things for range and shared. A beautiful rare black pepper and sesame seared tuna over salad, with super fresh fish, the level of pepper was on point. It was great. We had the pu pu platter for one which was a ton of food and delicious. The spare ribs were tender, the marinade on the chicken wings was so nice and the crab Rangoon were little fatties and fully stuffed with the perfect blend of crab and cream. We had the crazy chow fun (foon) with beef but without the spiciness so it was regular beef chow fun. Again the meat was tender and the wide noodles had the right amount of sauce. I had a scorpion bowl, it hit. I've seen some ugly reviews on here and honestly think two of the people whose last names start with S worked together on bashing this place, not cool Brian and Jen. Take out food will always be compromised by packing it, steam and travel. Don't judge food like that. This is the place for a fun first date, get a scorpion bowl for two. Get lit and share the Pu Pu platter to start. Check your compatibility on the old school Chinese zodiac placemat, love this. The ambiance is sultry red and dimly lit. People were definitely enjoying themselves. Gave me all the feels and memories of dark lounges, dens of iniquity, red lamps of my twenties. Ahhh...miss that time. I'm a hard sell. Gourmet garden is really good, and you should go. This is something I have should have enjoyed many times over by now.

The appetizer options were plentiful and definitely recommend the flatbreads. We had the Wild Mushroom that had a heavy dose of the kale-basil drizzle. And it's a big round pizza, not one of the typical small rectangles that get downsized for apps. The "Seriously Roasted Brussels Sprouts" were indeed well roasted and had a generous amount of bacon mixed in. So good for those where bacon is always a plus, not so much for vegetarians. I opted for the scallops as my partner doesn't care for them so I don't fix them at home. They were excellent and come typically littleneck clams. They were out that night so substitute 3 big shrimp. All for shrimp and good size but definitely overcooked. It was all served on top of a bowlful of corn chowder with potato. Thinner than a chowder frankly but it was a nice combo of flavors for the underlying carb. If there was a downside it was the room. There are multiple but we ended up in the bar area with the towering ceiling that made it really loud. Great that there was some sort of locals celebration at the bar but their volume completely dominated the room so it was hard to hear among the four of us who were a distance away.
