Lemay Garden - South County

I have been going to this restaurant for over 20 years. I love this place! The food is always great, I have never had anything here that hasn't tasted great. The staff is always so nice and friendly. I always look forward to getting food here.

First time here. Food was good hot and flavorful. I had vegetable lo mein noodles, fried rice with onions and eggs, pork fried egg roll and crab Rangoon. The crab rangoon had only cream cheese with specs of crab. That was a disappointment. Good portions. It was clean inside and the lady was very nice. Short wait time under 10 minutes.

I was looking for a good local Chinese take out place in my neighborhood, and came here for the first time and really enjoyed it. This is a pretty decent Chinese take out place in South County (I have been to many Chinese take outs in St. Louis.... and many lack quality, and lack service especially). This place looked clean, there was ample parking (it 's in the Dierberg 's strip mall), the lady at the desk was both friendly and sharp, I got my pick up order efficiently with very little wait, and the food was good. Their crab rangoon was great. I ordered the Chicken Kung Pao and it was very flavorful and spicy as I like it. My partner and I are very particular about our Chinese and Mexican food, and this place got the thumbs up from us. The value is good too (big servings for what you pay). I don 't understand the reviews saying the portions are small ? I would have to strongly disagree. The Half size for entrees are pretty HUGE, I couldn 't imagine eating the Whole size they offer... (P.S. as far as combo plates at Chines take outs in general go, they are actually *supposed* to be smaller servings... if you want a bigger serving, consider getting the Half size entrees).

I don’t know who they paid to give them good reviews recently but there is no way someone ate there that has any taste whatsoever and liked their food!! Currently a 4.2 rating?!?! Misleading… Very close to my house so I thought I’d give it a try. Mistake!!! If you are looking for good Chinese food, go somewhere else. The only thing I enjoyed was the fortune cookie. 1) Slow-There was one woman by herself 2) My Hot n Sour Soup was Hot Sour and a bit sweet….. which was weird 3) my General Tso had hunks of onion broccoli and very old dried out slices of carrot. I’ve never really had anything but broccoli and chili peppers in this dish at other places but ok. Then It had cinnamon or nutmeg in it… REALLY off in the flavor profile… the breading is weird and the meat was tough and chewy. Gross three bite attempts and over it. 4) Crab Rangoon had hardly any filling and the filling wasn’t great anyway. 5)Rice was greasy and flavorless 6) Beef and Broccoli in a burnt tasting sauce and horrible. The “beef” definitely was suspicious

Ordered $124 worth of food and food was horrible. Small portions, highly priced, shrimp fried rice only had 5 shrimp and rice was way over cooked. tasted burnt. had to throw most of it away. shrimp even still had the tails on them. egg rolls were tiny and sucked. lo main had no flavor at all. I will never go back there.
