Great food! Best zen in Lakewood. Best Chinese in Lakewood. General tso is always awesome! Now if they can get the older woman at the counter to speak English on the phone...ordering would be much easier :)
I'd order again.. As I'm new to the area, finding one good Chinese restaurant to head to for take-out was a must. Szechwan Garden definitely hit the mark-- crab rangoons were fantastic, the cashew chicken I ordered wasn't overly sweet and syrupy, and the portions were great. I'll be visiting again for sure.
This is my go to place. The zen menu is amazing... I love the food I just wish they delivered
Best in CLE. Hands down this is the best Chinese food around. Always fresh, never oily, overcooked, huge menu to choose from. Has a great vegetarian menu too. Has your standard Chinese fare but also some dishes found only there. Pineapple cheese shrimp is one that is truly outstanding.
We love to stop at Szechwan Garden when we’re on the west side. The staff has always been very nice and the food is good, but their Orange Beef is exceptional! We call it "the one, true Orange Beef."
Their Zen menu (vegetarian) is very good, too, and very tasty whether you’re vegetarian or not. Tofu and spinach is very tasty (or is it spinach and tofu?), as well as other items we’ve tried on the Zen menu.
Szechwan garden offers carry out, and has a dining room with several tables and booths. I believe they offer delivery through one of the food services, too. The restaurant isn't large but could easy handle a small gathering of family or friends, though you may wish to call ahead for groups. There could be a short wait at peak times, though it's not often an issue. Note, the parking area is quite small; there is parking along the side street, next to the small plaza, where it's located. Groups may want to carpool.
Uber Eats Driver: They always know I'm there to pick up an order and by name. They put your name on the bag in thick black marker, so there is no room for confusion. Very efficient.
Szechwan Garden is my wife's and my favorite place to get Chinese takeout. I'm vegetarian. The Zen menu makes it extremely easy to order since EVERYTHING on the menu is vegetarian. I can't say I've seen this anywhere else. We frequently drive into Lakewood, passing many other Chinese restaurants, to get food from here. The food is extremely consistent, the portions are large, and the prices are reasonable. I love this place.
Have been ordering food from here for a couple years and it has never disappointed myself or my fiance. The veggie fried noodles are the best I've ever had and the people who work there are always so friendly and kind. Love this place!
This is my new favorite Asian place!!!! The egg drop soups is SO GOOD!! I've been dreaming about it since I had it! My husband and I loved everything we got. And the waitress was so nice! She chatted with us a lot and you could tell everyone that worked there liked working there and liked each other. It was such a positive environment. It was a really nice quaint place to relax and enjoy a great meal. It will be a place we visit regularly now that we moved to the area!
Have been going here on and off since moving to Lakewood about 5 years ago. We had previously dined there several times with friends as well.
Very good food at a reasonable price, always piping hot and customer service is unbeatable.
Yummy and speedy. The restaurant is only serving takeout and delivery right now due to covid-19. Our food was just as expected, except the spring roll description on the takeout menu made it seem like multiple egg rolls when it is really just one. I saw a sign that said the restaurant has been open since the 60s and i think that’s awesome. We will most likely return here!
Just went back for the first time since their reopening and honestly seems like it has gotten better and it was good to begin with. I used to eat here regularly when I was a vegetarian because their "Zen" menu is phenomenal if you are a vegetarian. Even as a omnivore this place is great, probably the best Chinese takeout in Lakewood.
I got a to go order of the Happy Family and Spring Rolls Delicious. I would of gotten the Wonton Soup but the lady told me it came with only two wontons. I'm not going to waste $2.00 dollars on two dumplings that is crazy. But back to the food clean, fresh and delicious. Will return in the near future.
We bought two dinners and fried rice. Very tasty and large portions. If you like spicy go with extra hot! Pickup was quick. I'd go back.
