My wife and I met two friends here for dinner. It was 5:45 pm on a Saturday, and we were the only ones seated in the restaurant. I had the Kung Pao Beef, and my wife had the pork Egg Foo Young. The servings were plentiful, the vegetables were varied and fresh, and the dishes were delicious. The egg rolls are smaller than I'm used to, but still tasty. Our guests enjoyed their meals too. While the restaurant was not crowded, the takeout orders were very robust. Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person $20–30 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
Came in today at lunch as a direct result of the great reviews. The staff were extremely friendly and I was sat quickly to wait for my friend. I loved the complimentary hot tea and the water with a slice of lemon. These were great touches that separate Formosa Garden from other "Chinese" or east Asian restaurants. The atmosphere seemed like a relic of the 80s or, at the very least, the early 90s. I understand that small restaurants can't always keep up with the times, but updating to a modern look would change the ambience significantly. Unless you like that dated look, then: great! I ordered the Orange Chicken and was thrilled that the spicy dish was actually spicy. Most places will tell you their orange chicken is spicy, but in reality, it never is. Formosa kept that promise, to which I'm grateful. My friend ordered the Cashew Chicken and had two complaints: [1] There weren't enough cashews, and [2] The meat was a tad rubbery. As we discussed this, I realized my orange chicken was also more 'chewy' than chicken should be. Almost as if the chicken was thawed in the microwave, then cooked. All-in-all, the experience is one I'd try again to see if these issues were outliers or the norm. The lunch price was great and very competitive with Panda Express.

I am so glad the treasure was saved and restored!!! It’s a miracle! I hope you can make this a historic sight so it is never destroyed or abused again. The Formosa is such a special beautiful atmospheric place —-thank you so much!!

The wife and I went here for dinner trying a new place and here is a 100% unbiased review. We like to find hole in the wall places like this and we love to support small businesses. The vegetable egg rolls and the egg drop soup were bland with very little flavor. We ordered the chicken Gyoza and the Chicken skewers and both were great so we highly recommend. I ordered the combo fried rice with chicken,shrimp and beef and it was also really great. My wife ordered the BBQ Pork with vegetables which she found to be overly drenched in BBQ sauce. Our waitress was ok and she met our needs but seemed to not like interacting with customers. The entire restaurant is out of date and makes you feel like your visiting your grandmother's house with flower pattern all over it. It wasn't horrible but was a little weird. The bathrooms on the other hand are gross and need a massive cleaning and update. Not trying to be rude but it would definitely help in the customer recommendation to other people. Overall it was a good place to eat and a definite diamond in the rough.

Absolutely incredible restaurant. New family favorite to eat at. The service is speedy, sufficient, and welcoming. Our server even closed the blinds for us because we were watching the hockey game and was concerned we had too much of a glare. Fantastic food!

My family has been doing to Formosa Garden for more than a decade and it has become our favorite place to get food. The owner Peter is very kind and hospitable. There is something delightful about every dish! Formosa Garden has truly become our go-to choice for dinners, where we are all left thoroughly satisfied every time.

Best takeout I’ve had in a really long time. One of the few places still serving cashew chicken and it was delicious. I also got an egg roll, hot and sour soup (comes with fried wonton strips for topping), and crab cheese wontons. Everything was amazing! I’m so glad i ordered from here and will definitely come back soon! Also, I got this as delivery and it came exactly when they quoted on the phone and everything was still hot which was great :)

Had reservation for 6 at 6:30 tonight for xmas eve. Seated right away but then took 1 hr to get someone to take our order. All the folks at other tables were waiting a long time too. What the restaurant was doing was pushing out online orders both pickup and delivery and the heck with seated customers. There were so many to go and delivery folks that they were lined up out the door holding it open so that all the heat left the building. The staff (all 3 or 4 of them) were fighting and yelling at each other. The owners nephew got mad at me ( finally got out of his seat and in my face) for complaining and told me to go talk to his uncle (the little old man) in the kitchen. This is a totally different place than it used to be. Oh and the food stinks so no great loss of our business to them ever again.

The lunch special is a good deal comes with an entrée, fried or steamed rice, and egg roll and soup if you dine-in for under $8! Like a traditional Asia. Restaurant they serve you tea to start which is great! We had the pan fried dumplings. They were delicious. The soup was also really good. We ordered the chicken with garlic sauce and the sesame chicken. Both were hot, fresh and delicious with a spicy kick. The only weird thing is they served fried rice that was broken rice and no veggies in the fried rice. So it was good but not great. The egg roll was small and crispy but tasty. Our first visit here will definitely return!! Very friendly and great customer service.

This place has fallen off a cliff. Ordered a delivery and they are stingy with the sauce it doesn’t even cover the bottom of the sauce cup! The wontons in the wor wonton soup tasted awful. Ordered steak and got pork. Asked for medium instead of spicy and they put zero seasoning on it. Food: 1
