Mandarin Garden - Providence

This restaurant introduced me to Americanized Chinese food, which I initially thought was authentic Chinese cuisine. However, I later learned that I was mistaken, but it's still delicious! My parents always ordered chicken wings and fried rice, but I eventually branched out and found that their General Tso's chicken is the best. It is fried until crispy and then coated in a sweet and spicy glaze. I recommend getting the dinner combo, which includes your choice of fried rice or lo mein for a small additional cost, as well as a spring roll. Be sure to ask for extra duck sauce, as it pairs perfectly with their spring rolls. I enjoy dining in at this restaurant, but the sit-in area is rarely used. Overall, I love this place and whenever I am in Providence and craving Chinese food, I always make a stop for some takeout.

I believe this is one of the finest restaurant. I've been going their since 1985. I stopped going about 2003 or so because quality took a nosedive. I decided to try again this year. Come to find out the cook I've know for about 35 years had either quit or whatever reason, he left. But now he's back and the quality shot way back up to it's previous 100% consistency and quality! Unbelievable!!!!!!

I love this restaurant. I have been eating here since I was a child. The food is always fresh and the service is always fast.

I have been going there since I was a kid there food has mostly stayed the same one of the best Chinese spots. I don’t live around the area anymore but I will still go there to get food because I know it’s on point every time and that’s what’s most important.

You won't find a better place than this. I've been going there for 40 years and it's both affordable and the best option in Rhode Island.
