Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Reviewed 11 October 2022

Ordered takeaway for lunch, but it was a Cantonese surprise when I got home. Both our items were not on lunch menu, so dinner price paid. The Mongolian beef I was expecting (spicy beef in onions and green onions) was provided as beef with vegetables...(carrots, celery, green peppers). I have lived in the area for 15+ years and never had Mongolian beef from any Chinese restaurant that didn't have just onions and spring onions as the supporting band. As I barf on green peppers (not the restaurant fault), it was a no go. The fried rice ordered with it never even made it into the bag. The girl at the restaurant said 'that's how we do Mongolian beef'. Please feel free to Google images of Mongolian beef ... no carrots, no green peppers. The Moo Shu chicken dish also sadly disappointed. Almost wholly blanched chicken in bean sprouts. This recipe is where the celery, mushrooms, peppers might reside ... If you are ordering from this establishment, check what you are going to get and then check that they have not left anything out that you ordered. Their hospitality and sense of wanting to have the customer feel good about ordering from them again is lacking.More

It took a while to even get seated - like no-one in sight. Our meals were pretty lack luster. I felt it was fairly bland. The staff was grumpy. It was primarily two older gentlemen and it seemed they were annoyed that people were even...there. I'm giving it one more star than I'd like because I want to be sensitive to possible difficulties related to COVID that we weren't aware of.More

Popped in for a quick lunch. Ordered Chicken with Broccoli and it was excellent. Egg roll was a bit doughy. Enjoyed the Hot & Sour soup. Will definitely return!

The service and food is always good here. The wife digs the sweet and sour chicken. My favorite is Triple Delight. Good for families.

Lived in China for 5 years and hail from one of the larger Chinatowns in the US, and I’m chinese: I know my chinese food! This place is as close to homemade as you can get without doing it yourself—-just fabulous. Good options for vegans...and vegetarians too.More

We had wonton soup, low mein (for the kids), chicken with shrimp, Kung pow child and broccoli beef. All were mediocre. The service was very attentive however.

Was in Houston for the day and was going to go to Thai Lao restaurant which is in the same vicinity but was closed. So we decided to try Oriental Gardens and i was extremely pleased with the food and service. I loved the chicken...with broccoli in brown sauce so much I came back the following day for seconds!!!!More

We have been dining at Oriental Gardens for nearly 25 years and it became a family neighborhood favorite. We knew the original family owners and were heart struck when they tried to transition and the quality of the food fell. It has been six months...since we ate there but in reading the reviews here we identified with the previous problems and wanted to try it again. We tried home delivery of several favorites and were pleased with the meals. Today we dined in and was totally satisfied with the food and service. It was always good but today the food seemed fresher lighter and even more flavorful. We were greeted and remembered by several old faces and met several new ones. We were early for lunch and pleased as the room filled. Looking forward to Sunday and getting back to what we knew and enjoyed so much for so many years. Yes you can go home again. Highly recommend. You can't go wrong with either the Generals Chicken, Lomein Noodle Special, or the Salty Crispy Shrimp. I have always been hesitant to try anything else on the extensive menu because in the back of my mind I could have had the Salty Crispy Shrimp. Will see you there.More

After having an awful experience when the new management took over, we decided to try it again. What can I say except wow was I wrong. The new owners are a step above the old with virtually no fillers and lots of protein. The eggroll...was crispy and what I have been looking for for years. We also had ribs, dumplings, sesame chicken and lomein. All of which were good. So glad we tried them again. We will be back often.More

We have dined here for 15 years and have never found another to measure up to it. Food is consistently excellent. Tasty, fresh, and reasonably priced, as well. Not a buffet! Wait staff have been there for many years and give outstanding personal service.

We have been getting food there for almost 20 years, often more than weekly. Tonight our order was wrong and the woman laughed when my husband mentioned several mistakes or just plain not caring. What we did get that was correct was not good and...had a lot of filler. We won't be going back. To bad a restaurant in Kingwood for over 25 years won't be continuing the reputation of the former ownerMore

Very nice inside. The food was very good, but the service was even better. Tucked away in the Kingwood park area. Nice and quiet.

We have eating here for 10 years now and the food is always very good. It is one of our favorite restaurants in the area. My daughter loves their tofu and the oriental bean curd is delicious. They will also make a dish entirely the...way you want it. They really aim to make you full and happy. I have not written a review on here for a while but I really felt a need to write a stellar review. Great food and Fantastic customer service, I really couldn't ask for more! I am so happy this restaurant is so close.More

This is the worst Chinese restaurant we have visited. Awful service and tasteless food. Soup and dishes were lukewarm.
