" If you’re looking for authentic Chinese food, this is not the place for you! The food was far too sweet and more Americanized than I anticipated. I found no real depth of flavor in the dishes. However, the atmosphere had a nice local feel, and the service was attentive. Unfortunately, I was disappointed with the food overall and likely won’t come back. " (*Curated Review*)

" Crystal Gardens remains one of my go-to places for craving Chinese food. Their fried rice is always delightful, packed full of vegetables and perfect seasoning. I can always count on generous portions and reasonable prices. The service is friendly, and I appreciate how they make me feel welcomed as a regular customer. I highly recommend it if you're in the area! " (*Curated Review*)

" I must express how disappointed I was with my last visit. The service was underwhelming, and my meal arrived cold. The chicken in my dish lacked flavor, and I questioned the freshness of the ingredients. However, in the past, I had wonderful experiences here, leading me to wonder if maybe I caught them on an off day. I hope they get back to what they do best, as I would love to recommend them to friends again. " (*Curated Review*)

" Food was good, but slightly greasy. I ordered sweet and sour pork, and while I liked the taste, the texture was more batter than meat. Ambiance is fine, and the wait staff were pleasant, but it felt a bit chaotic during peak hours. I think it has potential, but it also has its imperfections. I might return but will try a different dish next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a lovely dinner at the restaurant with my family. The service was nice, but we found the food on the bland side. I had the beef broccoli dish, and though it was cooked well, it really needed seasoning. The restaurant itself was clean and welcoming. Overall, a good experience but with room for improvement on the food front. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was thoroughly impressed with my recent visit to Crystal Gardens! The menu had a great variety of traditional dishes, and everything we ordered was incredibly flavorful. Particularly, the ginger beef was among the best I've tasted, with perfectly tender meat and a delicious sauce. The service was friendly and prompt, and the atmosphere was cozy, making it a delightful dining experience. I can't wait to return! " (*Curated Review*)

" We had a big family gathering and decided to order takeout from Crystal Gardens. The food arrived hot and on time, and we were pleasantly surprised by the generous portions. The sweet and sour pork was a hit with everyone, very crispy and not overly sweet. We also tried their fried rice, which was flavorful and filling. The only downside was that some of the dishes could have used a bit more spice for my liking, but overall, a satisfying experience! " (*Curated Review*)
