Reviews for Imperial Garden in Farmington, NH
I have been going here for years and it used to be good I think it used to be under different owners since whatever changed... happened its been terrible. If you want fried rice that has a lingering flavor of hand cleaner and general tso chicken that'srock hard breading with almost no chicken or very small hard to chew pieces or dry chicken this is the place to go. Less then 1%of your pork fried rice is pork. Carbragoons are okay nothing bad to say about them but absolutely nothing good to say either.The general tso chicken will also have no spice to it just rocks with cornstarch. The lo mein is better then the pork fried ricewhen it comes to having more then just the rice to it so you won't just get noodles. The chicken fingers are just very drypieces of chicken probably best used in a sock to defend your family from an intruder. The beef teriyaki sticks have becomeabout half the original served size and are very inconsistent it's either cooked right or very dry. The chicken teriyaki sticksare the same but haven't gotten smaller in size. The egg rolls have the same hand cleaner smell to them as the rice does.Imperial garden has before hands down the worst Chinese food in the state and worst I've ever had in my life. You wouldgenerally have to try to get any worse then here. Also the takeout only policy they have put in place is a bit annoying but nolonger have to listen to drunk locals at the bar inside so not to big of a deal. Read more
Definitely a diamond in the rough! We are, more often than not, usually happy with our food!
Pretty good food, reasonably priced. If you call in a order make sure you get all your stuff. Whoever's pushing the employees to... work faster should take a step back. If I order Chinese (this is where I go it's the place to go) . From time to time there'ssomething missing. It's usually a big order but regardless it's still frustrating, you pay all the money for the food and youexpect to get it. Read more

Fast service. Decent prices. Good food. I would have given 5 stars, but the dining atmosphere is cold and disconnected. The... owners seem more about their bar patrons vs their dining ones. Read more
This place is now, unfortunately, a glorified takeout restaurant only. Years ago, when Chet was here, he and his wife put out a... consistently good product that you could enjoy dining in or as take out. Now the food can be hit or miss and we just tried thedining service and it was a joke. The "waitress" / counter person showed little to zero interest in her job, and to serving hercustomers. We were the only table in house and we had to fight to get anything we needed. A point came where I grabbed someplates myself from the waitress station. It's the only game in town so if you want the cuisine, you've got 1 choice. Just get itto go. Otherwise, good luck. Read more
3.5 stars, but I can't seem to offer half-stars. Oh well, I'll err on the side of 4-stars because the food is excellent. Great... food, but the service leaves much to be desired. Slow service, and the staff does not seem to care about offering friendly,attentive service. However, it seems to be a family operation in the kitchen, so perhaps it is a language barrier that causesthem to hire local residents as hosts, servers, and bartenders. But they really seem to know what they're doing in the kitchenbecause the food always comes out very well. Read more
Food was fresh and hot. Got take out and enjoyed very much. Will definitely come back here again soon.
