"What it is: A big new Chinese restaurant in Chinatown Perfect for: Lunch East Garden is a pretty big new Chinese restaurant in a strip mall off Hill St. in Chinatown. The menu is full of standards like cashew chicken and beef with broccoli - plus a page of Hawaiian-influenced food like chicken in lotus leaf (our favorite thing here) - and it’s decent for a quick (but heavier) lunch. But it’s not somewhere we’d go out of our way to eat again. Verdict: Decent Chinese and Hawaiian-influenced food, with portions big enough to be eaten again at dinner." - jess basser sanders, brant cox, brett keating
