North Garden Restaurant & Lounge

We are always on the search for authentic Chinese (especially Sichuan) food. We stopped at North Garden because they offer dim sum, which is usually a good sign. We stopped in for dinner and got: - “Pan-fried” Peking raviolis - Beef with ginger and scallion hotpot. First, the raviolis came out deep-fried, not pan-fried. Which is fine, but there is a difference and should be reflected on the menu. They were good, but being fully fried, the texture is different from a pan-fried dumpling. Next, the beef hotpot. It came out in a sizzling bowl. It was a large portion of beef, mushrooms, and vegetables (mostly onion). The flavor was okay. Certainly nothing offensive, and it was good, although a bit oily, but it was lacking an OOMPH. I wish it had more ginger flavor. Or maybe fermented black

I had the absolute best time at this restaurant! From the moment we walked in, the service was warm, welcoming, and attentive—every staff member made us feel like family. The food was absolutely delicious—authentic, full of rich, vibrant flavors, and clearly made with love and tradition. As someone from New York who’s dined at countless spots, I can confidently say this is one of the best meals I’ve ever had. The atmosphere was relaxed and inviting, making the whole experience unforgettable. Cocktails were unbelievablely delicious. Def worth a try!! Can’t wait to come back—this place is a true gem!

Do you want dim sum but don't want to go all the way down to Boston and deal with the traffic and parking? Then this is the place to go! This is one of the only places in NH that has dim sum. We tried pretty much everything and everything was great. Everything was fresh and hot, unlike some of the more popular Boston dim sum places where things have been sitting out for a while so it's lukewarm. Out of everything we've tried, here are some things we recommend: Chicken claw in black bean sauce: this might be a bit more adventurous pick for most, but it is so good. Not too salty, but perfectly pairs with a side of white rice. Not the easiest to eat, but chewy and very good. Shrimp in rice rolls: This is a dim sum staple we get everywhere, and theirs is really chewy outside and has no fishy s

This place was recommended by a friend for takeout. I must say we were pleasantly surprised! Everything we ordered was phenomenal! The soup was packed with wonton, the main dishes packed with quality chicken and vegetables! Everything was so flavorful! This will be our new favorite chinese place!

My family has been coming to North Garden for over 40 years! It is the one restaurant I make sure to return to every time I get back to NH. It's a family-run, family-owned business that hasn't lost a step. The food and drink is excellent, the staff warm and professional. Many happy family memories have been made for me over the years and I look forward to many more.
