Mai Tai - ey Green

The lady who waited on us was very judgmental towards my son you could just tell she didn’t like him the food was awful it’s so bland and dry

Dirty place and loud people that they let it. There's literally sticky stuff around the seats. Food is fine, though.

I am so disappointed. This for sure was not good quality food or service. We had eaten here for years and it WAS one of our go to spots. The pandemic came and they closed. We tried this place again after they reopened and it was not at all the quality we were used to (I understand it is under new ownership). Had seen reviews recently that said it was good again so figured we would try it out. And it has left us sorely disappointed and we will not be going back. The rice had a funny flavor, some of the meats were cold even though they had just been brought out. The waitress that served us this evening was less than pleasant and made it an even more of a terrible experience. If you knew the pre pandemic Mai Tai, do not visit this establishment now, it will for sure put a negative experience alongside such good memories.

I've been coming here for 30+ years. This place was it for us when I was a child. Loved it. Same for my boyfriends family. Since it was one room. Since the man behind the counter we watched grow up in there. I've watched the decline and bring back over the years. The food was always good. A good variety. The last time I went I left literally in tears knowing I'd never be back. There wasent to much fresh. Im a general tso person. None was available. No sesame chicken. They had this walnut chicken thay was spicy a couple times thay was amazing but nope. No champagne shrimp. I mostly at boom boom shrimp whoch was ok at best. It was a go to place for us as fond memories with my mother whom I lost 23 years ago. A place I went to reminisce. Nothing lasts forever.

I must admit, this was one of the best places in Jacksonville. However, it's been there so wrong. I guess the owners became complacent. Now the service sucks, the food is hit or miss. The employees and staff are just rude. The food has been on the bar too long. You don't want to go in there and sit and eat. Because the atmosphere is so dark and dull. I can go on and on, but it doesn't matter. I just miss the old China Garden, that was the place to go. Cheers ?
