Absolutely love this place. As soon as you sit down they bring out hot tea and mein gon noodles with duck sauce — such a nice touch and honestly SO good. Portions are huge, everything tastes fresh, and the soups are amazing. The vibe is peaceful, the staff is super friendly and really attentive without hovering. Even their takeout is on point. Definitely one of my new favorite spots and I’ll 100% be coming back!

Mistakenly stumbled upon this place during the snowstorm and was pleasantly surprised. The waiter was very nice and was attentive to our dining requests. He brought out the egg roll/shrimp spring roll and chicken wing appetizer first. All items were fresh and smoking hot. The wings weren’t the most flavorful but had a fresh breading. Entrees were quickly demolished (roast pork egg foo young, general tsos chicken, house special fried rice). Overall a great experience and it exceeded expectations with the fairly modest reviews.

I mainly order take out and service is always prompt, the food always tasty and consistent Everytime. The Singapore noodles and shredded chicken with green chiles are my go to dishes and I’m never disappointed and it always hits the spot. They always respect my modifications regarding no beef or pork in the noodles and the dish is still tasty. The staff is so nice too. The inside is always clean, parking easy. Prices are worth the portions, even with 3 people eating the 2 entrees we always have leftovers for at least 1 more meal. Will continue to come here as always, and one day will expand to try other things in the menu!

So I thought I had finally found a local Chinese restaurant that I could go to after the closure of Tin Sing in Floral Park. It worked for a while until we expanded our menu choices…
Tonight we ordered some different things: sesame shrimp, wontons in chili sauce and cold sesame noodles. Oh boy but these were absolutely terrible.
I’ll start with the cold sesame noodles. The noodles were under done and stale like they’d been sitting around for a week. The sauce if you want to call it that was disgusting. No flavor and no spice. No scallons… Nothing. Was so bland and off putting that it went right in the garbage where it belonged.
Next up the sesame shrimp. I know that on take out these heavily breaded entrees can get a little mushy so I ordered them extra crispy to help with that. What we got was so much worse. The batter was UNCOOKED GOO. The only thing you could taste was uncooked flour and the shrimp had that shrimpy taste indicative of food past it’s date. This one went right in the garbage too.
On to the wonton in chili sauce. So there was no chili sauce at all. No spice. Instead it was in a broken peanut sauce with no flavor whatsoever. Welcome to my garbage can.
So this place lacks consistency, and doesn’t care about what it is serving to our community. So it looks like another restaurant with no standards, no idea how to prepare tasty dishes and no care about its customers or the food they slop out.
I’d like to apologize to anyone who read my earlier review and are here.

We’ve both dined in and ordered take out. It’s a not your average take out joint. Definitely more pricey than local spots. Food is good and service is fast.

I adore this place. The food is of exemplary quality with good portion sizes, and everything is always packaged well for takeout. The fellow that takes orders is quite polite as well. They have some great tasting Chicken Fried Rice and General Tso’s chicken, and their Chicken with Broccoli is some of the best I’ve ever had.

I was hoping not to have to make this review but after yesterday I feel I should so the owner or manager can over see and change. The first time my takeout order was messed up they forgot the brown rice completely from my dish. No napkins, forks or spoons. Then the second time yesterday no napkins forks or spoons for a 54$ order. That to me seems intentional or petty not accidentally. Never ordering here again. Prices are TRIPPLE the amount anyway we deserve utensils!

Empire Garden – A Hidden Gem That Feels Like Home
Let me start off by saying this: I’ve had Chinese food in over 20 states across the country, and Empire Garden continues to stand out as my absolute favorite. It’s not just the food—it’s the entire experience that keeps me coming back, time and time again.
Let’s talk lunch. Empire Garden offers fantastic lunch specials that are hard to beat. You get a hearty, satisfying meal that comes with your choice of soup or an egg roll—perfect for a quick break in the day that doesn’t compromise on quality or flavor.
Every dish I’ve ever had here has been nothing short of exceptional. The flavors are bold, rich, and perfectly balanced. You can truly taste the freshness in every bite. From classic favorites to house specialties, every plate is prepared with high-quality ingredients and real attention to detail. This isn’t your average takeout—it’s Chinese cuisine elevated.
What really sets Empire Garden apart, though, is the atmosphere. It’s one of the few Chinese restaurants with a truly lovely dine-in area. The seating is cozy and inviting, making it an ideal spot for a casual dinner with family or friends. Whether you’re dining in or taking out, it feels like a place where you’re genuinely welcomed.
And speaking of being welcomed—the service here is out of this world. The young gentleman behind the counter and every staff member treats you like family. It’s rare these days to find a place where the hospitality feels so genuine. Every visit reminds me how lucky we are to have a business like this in our community. Their warmth, kindness, and consistently incredible food make every visit something to look forward to.
Thank you, Empire Garden, for all that you do. You’ve earned a lifelong customer in me.

It’s become quite difficult to find a sit down Chinese restaurant in Queens, so we had to venture into New Hyde Park & we’re glad we found this place! We were pleasantly surprised by the large menu that included several vegetarian options. The portions were large and included carrots in the shape of a flower. They have a lunch menu until 3PM.

Good and healthy food. Not like any other Chinese places that have lot of soy sauce or any of those. A good place for family to visit.
