Chen's Garden

Was seated very fast. Friendly employees and clean restaurant. My order was submitted with a few other tables and came out hot and fresh in only a very few minutes. Very reasonable prices for the generous portions. I ordered a lunch item and received a plate full. (Pictured sesame chicken, egg roll, crab ragoon, fried rice)

Stopped on a Friday evening on way to a concert. Was greeted as we walked into door and was seated right away. Got drinks quickly. Waitress was very pleasant and let us take time to look over stuff as was our first time there. After placing our order got our appetizer and wifes soup quickly. Crab Rangoon was very fresh and so good. Wife said her Hot and sour soup was best she ever had. She ordered 2 sushi rolls and I ordered Beef Pho. We both were so very happy we found this place and now are going to make special trips to this area just to eat here.

Hands down the best place to eat in Spencer! Any time we are in town it is our go to and sometimes we even come up with an excuse to go to Spencer just so we can go eat here! Not only is the staff friendly and the service is fast but the food is absolutely incredible especially the eel rolls. Can’t wait to visit again soon.

Really decent Chinese for rural Iowa. Pineapple fried rice was delicious but the pineapple was cold. Crab Rangoon were good and really fresh. Rainbow seafood was good but the shrimp weren't cleaned which was a bit off putting for me. My husband didn't care. We had a seafood soup that was loaded with seafood, especially for the price. I'm giving this 4 stars for the Chinese food. We've been here for the sushi as well and I'd give that two stars and that would be generous. As a transplant from Kansas City who's used to having easy access to excellent sushi I wanted this to be decent so bad. It's just not. The rice doesn't taste right and it's mushy. So go for the hot food, not the cold!

We stopped here for a pick up the other day as first time customers. Had a spicy chicken and broccoli and cashew chicken lunch special, and was thoroughly impressed! The vegetables were fresh and had just the right amount of crunch. The level of heat the chef added when I asked was literally perfect - accented the taste brilliantly. The lady on the phone and at the counter was wonderful. Would definitely stop in again!
