Liu’s Garden - Hazlet Twp

This is a great takeout restaurant. I don't understand why some people have negative things to say. I visited for the first time today and the lady working there was very nice. I ordered the lunch special, Shrimp Egg Foo Young, which was hot and flavorful. The hot and sour soup was also delicious, which is not always the case at other restaurants. The quality of the hot and sour soup and the starchy rice is a good indicator of a great takeout place. I noticed that the rice was starchy, which typically means that the restaurant doesn't skimp on quality ingredients.

Today, I had lunch at this restaurant and tried the chef's special - Friends of China Club lobster meat, steak, shrimp, scallops with snow peas vegetables and white rice. The portion was generous and very satisfying, with a great combination of flavors. The wait was not too bad, only about 10 minutes. Next time, I will definitely try the Green Jade Seafood.

I ordered the sesame chicken combo platter and enjoyed the flavor. However, I was surprised to find that it was breaded and sauced, which is not my preference.

Shrimp lo mein had tiny shrimp and was so salty. The boneless spare ribs were just ok. The crab rangoon filling was pretty good. We wont be ordering from here again.

Food was good definitely what you expect from a Chinese restaurant. I especially liked the fried rice that was served with my order.
