I already recommended this place to my sister. I don't know about takeout, but the dine-in experience was amazing. I don't leave too many good reviews. But this impressed me. Super nice server, full of smiles, actually Chinese, real decorative plates, no Styrofoam, and they served a PLATE of those crispy noodle crackers (like comes with soup) for FREE as an appetizer ( just like tortilla chips at a Mexican restaurant)! Food was really good too and prices were typical, not extra

This is my first time in this area and I was looking for something to eat and happened to stumble into this place. The prices and food are AMAZING! Will be returning in the future!

I can only attest to the quality of the General Tso's chicken, fried rice, and pork egg rolls because that's all I ever get there. But the General Tso's is the best I have ever had. Fried rice is okay, and the egg rolls are great. Service is always very friendly and expedient for pickup. Love this place.

Their General Tso’s Chicken was incredible! If you get nothing else, just get that one! Easy to get to location with lots of choices. The ambience was beautiful inside. I highly recommend!

Great food and lots of it. Shrimp were large and not overcooked. Great service. We ate in but looks like most business was taken out, and lots of it.
We will soon be returning.

Fast and easy pickup. The dining area never recovered from COVID it feels and it’s better as a takeout place. Their food finally got my son to enjoy something other than sweet and sour chicken without the sauce and white rice.

This is one of my go-to takeout spots in the area! So much so, that I’m willing to drive 20 minutes to pick it up. It’s always worth it. The food here is delicious and their staff is helpful and appreciative. If you’re looking for your next local favorite, I’d say this is it!

Great place for takeout! For me, the portions are above average for the area while still being the same price. While you may think this would lead to the food being below average, that is not the case! The food (especially the sesame chicken) is delicious and filling. I have tried several other similar restaurants in the area, but Orient Garden is going to be my go-to spot!

Me and baby went here for dinner tonight. From the moment we walked in, the vibe and atmosphere was so warm and welcoming🌟 firstly, the decor is so beautiful and authentic! Secondly, Chris was our server and when I tell you he was the kindest, most caring server I have ever encountered… trust me. He checked in on me and my love multiple times but not in a way that made us feel rushed; he genuinely just wanted to know how we were doing and if we needed anything. Now, the food. Let me tell you about the food. We got fried dumplings to start, and they were some of the best I’ve ever had. The sauce that comes with it is spectacular— sweet, a bit salty, but with a hint of acidity. Delicious. Then we got sesame chicken with white rice and beef lo mein to share. And the portions were just right! (It did not take long to come out, but when it did, it was hot and fresh). I cannot express my appreciation and satisfaction enough. Thank you Orient Garden and Chris and everyone else! You guys are angels. Come eat here and get the sesame chicken!! You won’t regret it🌟
My baby wants to say— “I’ve never been more happy at a restaurant.”

First I noticed the beautiful mural which helped create a nice ambiance. It was a lovely place to eat in. The service was exceptional, especially considering I have a friend with a particular diet. The food was tasty and along the lines of what I was expecting for beef and broccoli with steamed rice. I would be happy to try other dishes from here. The Mongolian style beef we got to take home was even better.

This used to be our most favorite Chinese restaurant in the triangle! The quality went down after reopening, seafood noodles were too salty. The general Taos chicken was good but pricy and small portion. Hardly see any beef in beef broccoli.

We’ve tried just about every Chinese takeout spot in Durham, and we were ready to give up—until we found this place. The food was easily the best we’ve had. You can tell they use quality ingredients, and the flavors were spot on. If you’re looking for the best Chinese takeout in Durham, this is it!

This is now my favorite and go-to restaurant in the entirety of NC! Chris, my server, is always super nice, boxes up food for me, pulls out the chair and grabs the door on the way out! His service is exceptional, and is reminiscent to the exemplary standards that all servers should look up to! The food is incredibly generous, relatively cheap, and absolutely delicious! Will be here again, and again, and most importantly, again! 🤣 Orient Garden number 1!!!!!
