If you love authentic Chinese food, Houston's China Garden will quickly become one of your new favorite restaurants.
The menu consists of all the Chinese classics you know and love, from soups and appetizers to a variety of beef, chicken, pork, seafood, and vegetable dishes.
Kick things off with a bowl of egg drop, hot and sour, wonton, or vegetable soup, plus one (or several!) appetizers. We highly suggest getting an order of egg rolls - everyone raves about them, and for good reason!
Whether you prefer a big plate of noodles or saucy meat and vegetables over rice, there's something for everyone at China Garden - that isn't an exaggeration, as there are 91 selections to choose from!
One full page of the menu is dedicated to gourmet chef's specialties, which include everything from beef in a zesty garlic and orange sauce to chicken with imported Chinese black mushrooms. You'll also see a rotating selection of limited-time dinner specials.
If you don't eat meat, you'll be delighted to see all of the delicious vegetable-based entrees. From dumplings to spicy tofu with vegetables, the scrumptious options prove you don't need meat for a delicious meal.
Please note: the menu is drastically limited for events due to the high rate of attendance.
Visit the China Garden website or Facebook page for more information, including current hours and a full menu.
