Hunan Garden Restaurant

I am heartbroken that this delightful Chinese restaurant is gone. It’s been here since at least 1974 and loved by the locals, with good reason. Unpretentious décor, courteous service and excellent food at great pricing. The last to still offer the Column A/​Column B specials. The very sad end of another happier era.

more false advertising. I need chinese delivered. it’s just after 9 on a Saturday night. this is the 2^nd place that won’t deliver 5 minutes away from them.

Quite possible the best little hole in the wall Chinese place you will go to. I have been here over 50 times, gotten most things off the menu and never once had something I didn’t enjoy. My favorites are the Mu Shu platters though.

Excellent Chinese food… Reasonably priced great taste and also good quantities.
My fav is the garlic chicken combo

I’ve been coming here for over a decade. Food is consistent and service is very welcoming and kind. Their shrimp with fried rice and shrimp with lobster sauce much better than average. This is the best Chinese food in the immediate area that you certainly can sit down and eat. Plus it’s BYOB.

This is a great place, probably one of the best sit-​in/​take-​out Chinese restaurants I’ve been too! I ended up here, because a friend heard about it from another friend, and we wanted to try it out…
To start off, the staff was very nice and on top of everything the whole time. You begin with free green tea and wonton chips and duck sauce for the table. The menu has many options, so we started with the steamed vegetable dumplings as an app. and these are the best I ever had. They were huge, doughy and had a «homemade» taste. Next for out entrée, we ordered the Chinese with Cashew and Chicken with Chinese Veggies. Both again, very tasty! Also the amount of food that was served was enough to bring home for the following day! You defiantly get your money’s worth (even though this place is priced just right).
Can wait to go back to try more things! I highly recommend you try, and tell your friends!

I hate to be a spoiler, but other than the service, this place did not really do anything for me. We tried this place out since we have been disappointed with most of our local Chinese places (Our favorite in the area is Tina and Louise, our other go-​to places, Ho Mei and Asian Grill, have gone downhill)
We ordered some basic Chinese American items, chicken and broccoli and lo mein. Both were just ok. The soups were good and the waitress/​owner? was very attentive and friendly.

Suprisingly great Chinese, and I didn’t have to trek into Chinatown. Lunch special is a great deal! Egg drop soup is nice and silky. I got the double-​sauteed pork, which was quite tender, dressed with a very pleasant sauce. And I am a fan of the pork-​fried rice. A nice hidden gem in the area, definitely!

We Unilocaled for a bit with a craving for Chinese fare. We decided upon this place after reading the two previous reviews from a few years ago.
We went with:
Steamed dumplings: stuffed with ground pork bursting with broth inside the doughy pocket, just like homestyle dumplings should be. Six pieces were served with a soy and vinegar dipping sauce that was infused with scallion and ginger. A nice start.
Lamb and green garlic: like the previous reviewer mentioned, they aren’t garlic chives… just scallions. The lamb was so tender and not overcooked at all. It was an authentic looking and tasting dish. Quite excellent, as it reminded me of a place on Temple Street in Hong where we grabbed dinner several times. Fond memories from a great dish!
Sizzling fish, lightly fried and crispy. Black mushroom, cabbage, carrots, stir fried and placed over the top. All of this was served on a hot sizzling platter, with the steam’s aroma wafting into our noses. This dish was fantastic.
Service, for a Chinese restaurant which is very old school, was very good and, believe it or not… friendly. If you’ve ever been to a restaurant in Chinatown or Flushing, you’ll know what I meant be that last comment. Nonetheless, it’s a bonus here for Hunan Garden. ^_​^
We were happily surprised by our time here. It’s old, yes… but they can sure cook!

Wonderful restaurant. Been here three times, and food is always delicious and cooked perfectly. Staff is extremely attentive, even asked if I wanted more broth for my fresh spinach/​chicken breast noodle soup. The dumplings are plump and excellent – both steamed and fried. Sizzling rice soup different from what I have had before, but still very good. Mou Shu pork very good, as is the wonton and egg drop soup.
Only gripe is the tea is served in a metal teapot, which does not keep it warm enough.
