Taste over 40 years of tradition.
Terrible place closing the dining room random hours every night depending on how busy they are.... These words came from an employee when I called.
Exceptional dining experience. Food was delicious, reasonable price and large portions. The take home boxes, are unfortunately not so good and our let overs spilled on the way home 😞
I’ve been going here probably 2-3 times a week for many years but i decided to stop. I’m tired of being put on hold and forgotten about or not being given everything I paid for and finding out when I get home. I like my meals a certain way and when something is missing I don’t enjoy it I pay money to get food I enjoy but when you call and there answer is to come back and get it ,a 20 min drive each way causing my food to get cold plus the extra gas money it cost and time to go back down. Wont deliver it , so their answe is to give me a store credit for the item I basically paid for already. What about my ruined meal Has happened more then once They all know me by name I don’t call and complain looking for extras or anything but if you screw up and ruin my meal make it right. Don’t just offer the customer what they have paid for the next time you come in. You just lost a good customer
The lower sackville location: Dishes were swimming in sauce. Barely edible and soggy. The Bedford location is excellent. Friends didn't believe it could be that much of a difference because we get meals from bedford all the time, so I ordered it. They all agreed.
Great value for the price. Food came out fast and everything was super good and fresh! I love coming here for special occasions and they never disapoint. Very nice staff as well!
My husband and i dined here when they first moved from Beaver Bank, we werent impressed. Tonight i thought i would try them again. We ordered for delivery which was prompt, the food was still hot. It was a simple order, 2 wonton soups and an order of honey garlic chicken balls. The wonton are very thick, took a while to locate the tiny pork ball in the center of all that thick noodle. The chickens were standard, the honey garlic sauce was pulled out of the honey garlic ribs, or so I assume that is where the pork bits in the sauce came from. I could not rate service or atmosphere higher than a 3 as the order was placed on line.
Best Chinese food in Sackville. I go out of my way to go to may gardens whenever I'm in the HRM. Best egg rolls you'll find anywhere. Big portions, great taste, good prices. If you're looking for classic Chinese takeout, you won't be disappointed. Located in the old Robins on Sackville drive across from the esso station.
Great Chinese food. Service was very quick and the server was obliging and friendly. We ordered the dinner for four and it was good variety and ample size. We had lots to bring home. My favorite was the ribs. The egg rolls were large and quite dense, maybe even a little on the tough side. The new location is clean, bright and roomy. The prices are reasonable and we will go there again
Not a fancy place but good food and good service. They give you large servings too!
I love the food here but every single time we get a takeout order there is something wrong with it. Tonight were sitting at home eating our 6 egg rolls we ordered without any plum sauce because they forgot to include plum sauce. Definitely triple check your order before you leave. Ask them to unpack it and re-pack it in front of you.
Good food, great portions
Food
We went there to celebrate my sons birthday. The food was not as good as I have there before.
Food was good.
Prices have gotten outrageous here last time for me ill drive elsewhere to save 20 bucks 16.10 plus tax for an egg roll and chicken fried rice and 6 chicken balls 9 something plus tax at another place I understand food cost but I think its just a little out of wack
Just moved back to the area. Best Chinese food before we left and still is! Service was ok.
Spare ribs were all fat couldnt eat them. No utensils as requested makes it difficult to eat a take out order. Pop warm. 4 small chicken balls, etc. Usually a good combo plate terrible tonight.
Terrible
Spare ribs Dry, Tough,chewy. Not mouth watering for sure. Beef in other dish also very tough. Extremely SALT. I think they dropped the shaker in it. Not satisfied at all. Previously had some good meals there. Must have changed cooks or something. Time to take a brake from this location.
Food has improved and plentiful. Service was good and courteous. Prices are comparable Decor is typically Food : 4/5
We picked up our Chinese meal last night. It was the best...always plenty of food...and everything hot and fresh. This is our 3rd time going back and we will go again. Thanks for the awesome meal!!
Good food, reasonable priced, friendly staff will go there again for sure
I love Chinese food, the food was great at this restaurant, great portions. However, even though the place was not very busy the waitress never came around to anybody at the tables to ask patrons about how is everything? or if the patrons wanted more water or whatever beverage they were drinking. I was served water once and that was when I sat down. However I can say that the waitress did ask a older male patron whom was sitting in a corner reading a novel if he wanted more coffee? he must have been a regular as she called him by his first name but she never asked any other patrons. I did Not tip her, because I feel that if a waitress/waiter went out of their way to ask patrons how their food was, or offered drinks or even at least make patrons feel welcomed then they deserve a tip, and well I base my judgement and whether or not I will tip or even come back to the Restaurant or not, is on over all service. Food can be good but service can be poor, well I would prefer both
Had an awesome meal. We will certainly be back
Worst food
Great food and service Parking: Very nice and clean Kid-friendliness: Nice family restaurant Wheelchair accessibility: Nice big doors
Just ordered $100 worth of food from these guys. Man, what happened to this place? Will never order again. Food was gross. Threw most of it away. My food looked like it was yesterday s thrown away garbage. Very dissappointed.
There was a mistake in my order tonight but they kindly corrected the order. They double checked the order next time plus it had a sweet message and delievered it asap. Appreciate the extra spring roll too.
Asked for carrots in my beef and broccoli and they refused to do it. I won t order there anymore
Fast & efficient.
Ordered takeout New Years Eve, and it was on time and delicious.
Huge portions and incredible service. Our food was served on a huge platter, steaming hot. The server was so friendly. We will definitely be back!
Good Chinese food. Not luxurious but filled the belly.
Erica is great
Only end up getting may garden when other options arent available, always disappointed.
Great food, very fast service.
Very disappointed !!! Food was cold , rice was very bland, tasting like minute rice, no soya sauce packets in bag with food when we picked it up, and chop suey was green in color . Ive eaten here before when visiting Sackville , but not again.. definitely a waste of money ..
Great food. Best egg rolls around!
I was on a quick lunch break. I ordered a lunch special. It arrived fairly quickly, but everything was still cold. My server offered to have it reheated, but I didnt have the time to wait. I havent eaten here in years. The restaurant was over-hyped then, and it still is.
My girlfriend Butter took me there for my Birthday Brunch. Great place
Sad because growing up here, this was the BEST place for Chinese food. Now, the rice and noodles are bland, the stir fried veggies are barely cooked and flavorless, and the ginger beef / lemon chicken / chicken balls are breaded but drowning in a dish of sauce, so they are SO soggy and inedible. They also charge extra for fortune cookies now :( Will not be going back
Good food and service. Large servings
Always amazing food, eat it weekly
The best food!!
Good food!
Its just ok , not spectacular by any means
Ordered a large amount of food for a small gathering. Surprised to see that when we got home we were given very small portions, especially of rice. We payed $10 for this portion and it was tiny - could only feed one person. I thought they forgot the rest of the food so when we called up the man said we should ve asked about the portions before. Chinese restaurants usually give you large portions of mediocre food but not May Garden in Sackville (small portions of subpar food). Way overpriced for what we got, and terrible service.
This was $100 worth of food and most definitely not worth it. Beware of sizing for the rice when you order. Bad service.
We are never disappointed when we dine at May Garden! I prefer authentic cuisine while my husband prefers Canadian-style Chinese cuisine. The staff is always friendly, the cooks eager to meet special requests and the restaurant is always clean and well-appointed.
Extremely over priced for poor quality food. I do not reccomened.
Best ever food! Waitress brought wrong selection but it was fixed immediately!
Best Chinese food anywhere. If you want Chinese food May Garden is the place to go. Staff are great. 5 STAR.
I will never return. Owner isnt a customer service type of person. Dont eat here or support this restaurant. Food was sub par.
Excellent. Will be back!
Excellent service and prompt delivery of the meals,as always theyre Best for their customers and their customers are always happy as well and they return again to the Restaurant to enjoy their meals again.
The owners are very nice and food is great. They have some of the best beef and broccoli I ve ever had.
Great service Huge portion more than enough tasty quick Service nice dining area
Food was great and got big portions ...one poor girl seems to be doing everything on the floor meaning we waited a bit long to pay as we didnt want to rush her.
Great people and amazing food. Thank you!
Yummy lots of food for the price even took some home definitekywill be back
Great food again, and lots of it.
Ordered take out and it was less than average. Very odd flavors in the food and the chicken was dry, dumplings were an odd texture. I would never order from this restaurant again. Yuck
Will definitely be going there again
Will never ever ever ever order again. Absolutely garbage food. The nastiest sweet n sour chicken balls ever. Pathetic because this place USED to be gem. 15 years ago. Last order I tossed after eating maybe 15%. Of it max.
Fresh and fast. Canadian Chinese food. We grab and go with them regularly, as well as est in now and again. Friendly staff. Vegetarian options: Lots of options Parking: They have their own parking Kid-friendliness: Great kids menu Wheelchair accessibility: Easy access. Lots of room at tables for wheelchair. Accomidating staff.
The most incompetent and disorganized staff. Placed an order at 1130 am for pick up at 530 pm Christmas Eve. Arrived at 520 pm and waited for 40 minutes while staff walked around looking for the order saying I remember taking the order but I can t find it . After waiting for 40 minutes I left and went to my car and called and asked to speak to the manager and was told the manager was too busy. Worst service ever. I will spread the word.
Good food
Huge portions! Best in the city
I have to say . If you like Chinese food .well you have to eat here. The food is amazing and soooo good. We have taken friends there and they all love the food and keep going back. Erica and Amanda are amazing and make your visit very pleasant. The food is very fast coming out to the tables. Again never had a bad meal there.
Staff make the restaurant
Delicious food always
Excellent food and service
Great price and great food! Always fresh.
Great food...curtious staff....prices are good.....my go to place for Chinese food.
Best Chinese food in Sackville!
The service is good and the food is really tasty.
Big sized portion we all had to get a take out container to bring the food home. I had to share a meal with a friend and we went splits on it and it was the perfect amount. Lots of options and a good size dining area. They also have a public washroom.
Never ate there until we moved to Lower Sackville and wow were we ever surprised at how good their good is. The quality and value you get is really outstanding. Love their chicken balls and fried rice and their shrimp is also delicious. Its so worth the time to check out. Almost forgot but their egg rolls are so tasty.
Always good food. Fast service.
Food was undercooked for both meals. I wanted to love it but with undercooked meals , I found it was a waste of money. Guess Ill be sticking with long dragon
First visit to the new location and its a nice open, bright place. Fast service and friendly staff. The food was very fresh with portions from the combo platters being enough to take home for a small lunch. The only zonk for me is the price. Like everything else today prices are just too high. And unfortunately that means fewer visits during the year. Would I go again knowing the prices are high? Absolutely.
Great service,and delicious food
Its chinese food. Good and always hot.
This was my go-to spot for Chinese food since I was a child. We got take out tonight, for the first time in almost a year, and it was not good at all. The rice was flavorless, the chicken balls were mushy and the eggrolls were a weird texture. First time I have ever been truly disappointed with their food.
A truly great place to eat. Wonderful food, good proportions and fabulous service. Very enjoyable experience.
Prices arent bad the food lately has been hit or Miss but their egg rolls still the best in Sackville
I thought she was very attentive and we were happily seated and attended to efficiently
Delicious! Love the egg rolls!
Always good!! But called at 9:45pm, said they were closed but shows open until 10;00pm. Not cool
The food ,way real good this time ,not so much last time
Great Food and Good Service.
Excellent food and great sevice
High quality for their food.
The service was excellent, the food not so much. The meat eggrolls were beyond disgusting. They had a strong taste of pastey flour and not edible. This was my 3rd time back there since opening in their new location. We will not be back. They used to be the best around for many years. So sad.
Delicious
Great food, huge portions good price, awesome service
Food is consistently good.
Absolutely love this place! The workers know me so well I always leave a tip for their amazing service and delicious food!
Good food.
They said 15-20 and they had it ready with a smile
Great food! Great portions and excellent wait time!!
The food seem fine, But the next day my wife and I were down with some mild food poisoning. Again that just proves to me that there is no good place to get Chinese food in Nova Scotia
Great food great service and great price can you beat that?
Chicken in the chicken chow mein & chicken fried rice was spoiled. Absolutely disgusting.
Ordered online. Got DoorDash to deliver it. The sauce leaked out everywhere. Bag was tore soaked but that wasn t the worst of it. I ordered a chicken chow mein and got pieces of shrimp in the rice. I did not order that because I hate fish. Could not eat it. Just threw it out and went somewhere else. Very expensive supper. I wish they would reimburse my credit card but I can t see that happening. Will think twice before ordering from there again.
Great service, large portions and food was delicious !
The service is always friendly and the food is always delicious. They also serve what I consider to be the best egg rolls in the province.
I had an overall great experience here, I ordered the beef and broccoli dish and it was excellent. I also ordered one of the normal egg rolls and their special egg roll. The normal was expected, it was tasty and enjoyable. The special one however has way too much going on in it. It has 2-3 different meats and shrimp in it, along with beansprouts etc. Just too busy of a dish. The staff were friendly and I will be going back again.
So fresh! So delicious! So very full! Man , the best Chinese food Ive had in a very long time! Cant wait to go again.
Good food but the portions were a lot smaller than similar take out locations.This makes the value lower.
Great food
Best Chinese food weve ever had!
Delicious! Some of the best Chinese food Ive had in a long time.
Favorite egg rolls
The best Chinese in Sackville consistently. Love the food, love the staff!
Typically this restaurant is a very solid choice. You always get more than enough food at a very fair price. Any night this place is timely and very high quality, however on Christmas Eve our order, and many others were well beyond an hour and a half late despite being placed hours in advance. So just keep in mind holidays are particularly busy, however any other days a very safe choice.
BEST CHINESE FOOD EVERRRRRRR and AMAZING staff... literally thats all I have to say
That is the only Chinese food restaurant I love. Please dont change anything. I have tired others but none compare.
Great food. Great staff.
Good food & quick service
This was honestly the worst Chinese food I have ever had. Me and my girlfriend literally just through out most of our food. The rice was tasteless and dry, the chicken balls werent even fully cook, and the spare ribs were chewy and lacking meat big time. Would never recommend or eat there again. Cant wait for foolsins to open back up.
Dinner for four takeout!
Honestly the worst Chinese food I have ever had... food was extremely over-cooked to the point it was hurting my teeth to bite into the meat and it was also very flavorless. Not only was the food hard and flavorless but I was also charged for 2 egg rolls that I never received. I only went here because my favourite place is currently closed and was beyond disappointed, will not be returning!
Great service with the publics safety in mind
This is the best Chinese Restaurant I have ever got to.
Wonderful service and good food. Very clean washrooms.
Worst chinese food Ive ever had. Dinner for the family cost $60 and everything tasted the same, like salt water, corn starch, and old broccoli. Everything was watery and flavorless, with the exception of the egg rolls which were soggy and filled with an awful meat paste. Ive lived in major cities in 6 provinces, and this is by far the worst chinese food Ive ever ordered. I work for a garbage company and the smell was so bad in my kitchen after 15 minutes that even I was feeling sick from it. 80% of the order went straight into the green bin before it even cooled down.
Good spot
Too much dark meat in chow mein and also in your rice.
Food was barely edible and had to throw out 2 of 4 chicken balls because the meat inside was hard as a rock and super dark in color. Wont be going back anytime soon. They didnt even give me soy sauce in the bag!!
Ordered a noodle dish ( even looked it up to make sure it was noodles) what got delivered was just a bowl of bean sprouts and half my order was missing. Very disappointing
Great service,consistent food
Had a craving for chicken chow mein, totally crushed it. It was so good. Thanks.
Always good food and great service.
Excellent service, food and surroundings. Very clean and the food is 2nd to none.. the May Garden rice is the best.
Was not what I expected to get after being away for so long. What happened may garden??
Wow has this place gone downhill. Or maybe they had a bad night. I used to eat here all the time when they were located on Beaver Bank Rd and always remember it being so good. We were in the area this evening so decided to try out the new location. Service was polite but they forgot to bring a few things to the table (salt, pepper and soy sauce). We had to ask for utensils because they forgot those too. When the food came, it looked so good but I was surprised to find that looks were deceiving. The Chicken Almond Soo Guy had no almonds and the chicken was very chewy and hard to bite through. Same for the egg rolls. They definitely tasted and felt like they were pre-cooked and just re-heated. Just awful. The rice was ok but it too seemed a little cold. I dont know if I want to go back.
May Garden is always the pace to go. No need to even think about going somewhere else.
Great
Had Chicken Fried Rice, Sweet and Sour Chicken and Ginger Beef Friday night Oct 9 all horrible threw it out!
The food is always fresh and tasty.
Line up out the door even though I pre-ordered.but food is great as always
Best Chinese food around
Food is decent, staff tries their best. Lost orders, and long wait times will keep me from going back anytime soon.
It was our first time ordering from there and hopefully the last one. No idea how they have over 4 star review average. Won ton soup - very little meat in the won tons, lots of wonton dough. It almost felt like I was eatING lasagne pasta sheets dipped in very salty broth with soggy Napa cabbage. General Guy Chicken - it was awfully sweet, it was terrible. It landed in the compost bin, we could not eat it. Who adds so much sugar to this dish? Veggie fried rice was okay. Anyways, over $40 order was a big blow, waste of money.
Always great food.
Beat food in the world.
Okay food. Not enough staff on to keep customers happy with service and keep tables cleared.
Love the egg rolls
Do t let the location or decor fool you. The food is amazing and the staff is as well.
Best Chinese food in the Bedford/Sackville area.
Great food and service.
Best Chinese around
