Asian Chao Garden City Reviews
I don't really understand all the negative comments. I think the price is reasonable for the product. The quantity was fine. The freshness of the food is questionable, just like any other restaurant in the mall. I was offered a snack and thought it was delicious. We had the bourbon chicken with noodles. 5/5 since you get what you pay for
Solid spot for a bourbon chicken, orange chicken, and orange chicken combo. Portion size is above average and price is spot on given the area. Line also moves fast.

Sorry to disagree but I found the food first rate the noodles were hot and fresh the orange chicken was absolutely delicious and the tofu was great Really good for mall food

The servings at Asian Chao were generous, perfect for sharing. Mom and I split a meal—she had the noodles, I had the rice, and we added an extra order of Bourbon Chicken because it was undeniably the highlight. Its sweet and savory flavor made it worth going back for seconds. For a fast-food place, it’s pretty decent. The portions were satisfying, and the Filipino staff, especially the manager or lead, were very friendly and accommodating. It’s a good option for a quick and filling meal with great service.

Got both orange chicken and bourbon chicken. Every piece of bourbon chicken was completely burnt and bitter, and one piece of the orange chicken had a big bone in it. Unknowingly, I was chewing on it and the bones shattered in my mouth. Luckily, I didn’t chip a tooth. When I brought this to the manager’s attention, she offered me a plate of something else, but she was very cold and unapologetic about it. As if she was doing me a favor.

Food tastes good and flavorful, however it's highly overpriced and the portions are very small. I don't eat a lot and still felt hungry after paying $14 for Bourbon Chicken with Fried Rice. This price did not include a drink, which I purchased at another kiosk. That's a very steep price to pay for mall fast food. My excellent local Chinese restaurant gives me more food for less moolah. I ended up having to buy myself more food later, because I was still hungry.
I got the bourbon chicken, orange chicken and noodles at around lunch time. Bourbon chicken was okay. Orange chicken was soggy and tasted like straight up sugar. Noodles tasted like the cooking oil and nothing else. But $15 was way too expensive for the amount I was given.
Got about three pieces of chicken and one scoop of lo mein for $16. And it tastes like garbage. What ever happened to mall chinese food?
I don’t usually leave bad reviews, but this was a huge disappointment. The food was honestly nasty the flavors were off, and the rice wasn’t even cooked all the way through. It was hard and underdone, which completely ruined the meal. On top of that, the prices were way too high for what was served. Definitely not worth the money. I won’t be ordering from here again.
The rice is hard and uncooked. Please do better. Your receipt doesnt show that the company for feedbacks.
lady was so rude and i got charged 23 dollar for this plater tht insaneee for just chicken
The staff is incredibly unprofessional, DIRTY, NON SANITARY & arrogant to the core ! Don’t get me wrong the food here is delicious, delicious when it’s not served with the same gloves used to touch money ! this specific staff uses the same gloves their whole shift, you can visibly see this on their gloves. When they hand you your drink it’s always spilling and your cup is so so greasy because of their gloves.
Honestly I regretted paying for this food the moment I saw how much chicken they put in. Taste wise it’s not bad, it’s mid. but they skimmed out in the meat. I paid $15 for a couple bites of chicken. I asked if they can put more for the amount I paid and they put one extra piece of chicken. If I wasn’t hungry I would have just left the food without paying. 2/10
Food was salty and feels slimy. I will definitely avoid next time.
Do not heat here found maggets in the food and it was disgusting. Warning for all

can not stress enough PLEASE PLEASE BE SO CAREFUL AND DO NOT EAT HERE! Found raw chicken in my meal thank goodness i noticed it…. the managements solution was to ask me if i wanted a new plate after finding raw chicken. BE CAREFUL!!
Disgusting, horrible pricing, no mashed potatoes, no mac n cheese. 20 dollars for a plate of dog food
This place went from being okay to a big nooo! They are super stingy with their food and the servers are nasty and charge you incorrectly so watch out! I asked for orange chicken with vegetables and they charged me for two proteins. The portions are small and when I asked for 5 packs of hot sauce they told me no that I was only allowed to have 3packs! Yet here you are charging me for extra food. Save to say I will never ever go back to them! I will go to the other Asian spot near the melt shop. PEOPLE BEWARE AND GO SPEND YOUR MONEY ELSEWHERE!!
This place is not good. My "plate" had so little chicken it was laughable, the chicken in question was old and dry, no sauce. They mix old food together with new food trying to fool people. It was not worth the money at all! It was disgusting. And why is there sooo many people hovering over the food, literally on top of it, breathing on it. Don't eat here, if they do not cook the food in front of you, do not trust it.
Customer 1: The food was way too overpriced for how stale and chewy it was, we asked for 2 small drinks and they charged us for 2 large drinks. Customer 2: They definitely overcharged my kids because they were young. Customer 3: Customer services were horrible. Food was really greasy. They need to add sizes
Stay away! They give you box style with big spot and two sides spots. Well the big spot is suppose to be for the protein and two sides in the smaller parts, not here. Big compartment got rice and a scoop of chicken and a scoop vegetables in the sides spots. For the low price of $13.99 plus tax. Don't forget the $3.29 for a drink, which i didn't get. This was way over priced for mostly rice. You get double the amount of food at a regular take out Chinese restaurant. Never again!!!
Some of the worst takeout style Chinese food I’ve had. I don’t enjoy leaving bad reviews- but my partner & I ordered 6 items and found all of them to be oily and with a bad flavor.
