Time after time this place consistently kills it with their food. My girlfriend and I got the Dumplings and Spring Rolls, which were great appetizers! Our server was kind and super friendly, I wished I remembered her name so I could give a shout out. Our entrees were really good and filling, had to take leftovers home. I got the Egg Noodle and Wonton Soup, the broth had a great flavor and the BBQ Pork was cooked well! I wish the inside was a little nicer and seating wasn’t all over the place, but doesn’t really matter if I’m just able to get a seat and enjoy some great food!

Tried this restaurant for the first time, was disappointed to find out that my $11.90 bowl of soup was only filled half way for my to go order. When I asked why this was and if it could be resolved I was told that it was to “let the steam out”. Un happy before I can even taste the food. Definitely not worth the price or hassle.

I'm loving this place! Got the all-meat fried rice, and the beef was surprisingly tender. The rice was a little mushy, not exactly "fried," but hey, it was a nice change from Benihana's. Those shrimp and chicken spring rolls were amazing though! It's clean, and taking the top off would make the patio awesome. Great decor and music too. And I got a front-row seat to the young lady doing her makeup the whole time! If you're looking for something different, give it a shot.

It’s a hole-in-the-wall restaurant that has some of the best Thai food I’ve ever tasted! I haven’t been in a while, but I was in the area and had to get my fix. I would’ve posted a picture of the yellow curry with chicken, but it was half-way done before I remembered to take a picture. 😂 However, I did manage to snap a shot or two of their cashew stir fry with chicken my mom got.

The food was fresh and plentiful! This was the lunch-size, and we still had lots of leftovers.

If you’re in the area and wanting to eat local, please check this place out! It is so worth it, affordable, and Dentonesque. 😊

Great atmosphere, service and setup. Food is a mixed bag, drunken noodles were good while other noodles was not as good.

Oriental Garden is my favorite restaurant in Denton. We come here for my birthday usually, but I also bring my partner and my friends often when we want someplace good to eat. Any of their dishes I've tried over the years have been great. As for my go-to's, OG's mango curry and green curry are AMAZING, as well as the fried rice, which reheats really well! They also offer non-meat protein options, like tofu, at no extra cost :). There's always enough food for leftovers, and even my picky eater friends like it because they know exactly what comes in each dish. (Speaking of portion sizes, the Thai tea is great and comes in a pretty big cup!) I also can't stress enough how much I love the energy in the restaurant--I'm pretty homely and even I would choose to come eat here. The atmosphere is wonderful with warm lighting and a variety of self-seated options for where to dine. The service is fantastic because the servers are always very friendly and never mind if I need extra time to decide what I want. They always make me want to tip extra because they're very personable, but not pushy. I would absolutely recommend OG to anybody in Denton who wants good, reasonably-priced Thai food and a great atmosphere to eat it in.

One of the best Thai restaurants I have been to. Place has decent ambience and is very wallet friendly. Service is quick and staff is really good. I loved their Thai yellow curry fried rice (spice 3).

We tried the green curry chicken fried rice and the khaaw khaw fried rice. Both of them were delicious, but we preferred the green curry fried rice. The ambiance of the restaurant was charming, with beautiful decorations including plants and lights. The server provided excellent service and always had a smile on their face. We thoroughly enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere and the restaurant's decor.

The orange chicken was terrible. All bread, no sauce and small portion.

Tried the Green Ckn Curry for first time , 4 out of 5 on the spiciness . Did not disappoint, I’ll be back in the near future .🙂

Great sesame chicken even thought it’s a little expensive.

Little hidden gem.

I used to come here often. However, the last time I was here, the food did not taste that great and portion sizes got smaller. Also, their menu does not reflect the current prices and you have to go online to see the prices

Went on a Saturday night with friends. Everything we had was good, and the portions were big enough to share.

Sometimes the chicken is overdone and unchewable

The restaurant was fully decorated for Halloween and full of plants, which created an amazing ambiance. The staff was super friendly, and the service was really fast. The food was very good. I got a pad kee mow and a Thai iced tea. The noodles were amazing.

Rip off on to go orders! Half filled containers with an excuse of steam. BS

Tried this restaurant for the first time, was disappointed to find out that my $11.90 bowl of soup was only filled half way for my to go order. When I asked why this was and if it could be resolved I was told that it was to “let the steam out”. Un happy before I can even taste the food. Definitely not worth the price or hassle.

All experiences are good. I love that atmosphere, very calm place.

Been my favorite Thai spot for 23 years and just as good as it was when I was in college.

$25 for some rice and half a dozen pieces of broccoli... Maybe they are better in person, but order through Uber and you get this...

Very good service & food. Parking sucks, though!

Quality is good quantity is bad. Ordered a to go meal and the container was only a quarter full. For $20 not worth it

Their pineapple fried rice is outstanding. I would also recommend salmon panang curry. Pad Thai, on the other hand, is so so. They also have pretty good desserts too.

Pretty authentic and flavorful!

Great selection of Oriental food. Nice variety.

Absolutely wonderful! We went here for the first time when we moved to the area and we have been coming back for the past 6 months and are never dissatisfied! We go multiple times a month one of our favorite places to eat. The chicken pad Thai is delicious! Highly recommend to anyone and everyone.

It appears that things have gotten better there. For a while I wasn't impressed but it seems the menus changed again and it's pretty good

Food was good, as well as service, there was just me and my girlfriend in the place with one other lady there. It’s quite small but cozy.

I work down the street at UNT and walk by this restaurant often. Decided to try today and glad I did. Great friendly staff and the food was hot and delicious. I got the Red Thai Seafood curry. This will start being a monthly stop in for lunch!

Had a really good meal here! I’ll definitely be back.

Easily the best orange chicken I’ve had

One of the better Asian cuisine establishments near UNT. A must if you got an extra $15 to spare.

I came with a friend for lunch here the previous weekend and had a great time. The staff were courteous and professional and the food was portioned well for the price. (Food pictured was the sweet and sour fish with white rice and unsweetened jasmine tea)

Nice friendly atmosphere with good Asian food. Can ask for heavy spice to little spice. It’s your choice.

In a state where the prices at Chinese restaurants seem to go up and up, I suppose, it's quite nice to have such an affordable place right in the middle of Denton. The atmosphere inside of the restaurant is also calm and relaxing. Highly recommended.

food is amazing. been going here for years. I now live in Lewisville and still order from here. a star is taken away today because i found a small metal in my food while chewing

Love this place the staff is always so welcoming. Food is the bomb 💖

I had the chicken green curry at level 3. It was delicious. If you are every visiting it is a nice place it go.

Great atmosphere, service and setup. Food is a mixed bag, drunken noodles were good while other noodles was not as good.

Great restaurant, amazing ambience!

We had this delivered last week and it was amazing. If you can't find something to like on this menu - give up. The delivery was quick and packaged beautifully. Order now!

The food is consistent, flavorful, and well-priced. On top of that, it is always prepared quickly, too.

This is our weekly go to! We LOVE Oriental Garden!

Great Thai food tucked away in Denton!

kind staff, excellent laid back atmosphere, good music. Kra prao dish had really nice flavor, unfortunately the chicken itself tasted off, like it was of low quality or old.

Great place.

Not my favorite

100% a real human and not AI generated to leave good reviews. Super good if your not sure what to get my go to is bbq pork fried rice, it's to die for. I get it level 6 spice because there spice scale(1-5) is for white people who can't eat black pepper. Well I'm a white guy who wants to die so throw that heat my way!

Good Thai place, the food is good and really spicy if you want it to be, great service, and pretty great place if you love spicy food like I do.

Okay so I’ve been going here for six years ever since I found out about this delicious place! It’s my favorite Thai food! This is the Pad kee mow. It’s a craving of mine and I just have to always get this dish. Never have I had any better also they have the best fried rice! And I haven’t been able to order anything else because these two dishes are to die for. Large portions!!!! Love this place forever!! Highly recommend.

It is a really good place near the university of North Texas to take breakfast, lunch and dinner for a Reasonable price. The food is delicious.

It tastes OK, portions are too small, I had garlic beef and there was like 20-30 grams of beef and it’s 18$

Favorite Thai place near university :)

The staff was friendly! But overpriced lunch menu for side salad and curry with beef with mostly onions. It was almost $13!

I love this place so much. They give you a lot of food so you get what you pay for. The Thai tea is addicting and I’ve had their chicken pineapple curry like 30 times in the last year.

We tried the green curry chicken fried rice and the khaaw khaw fried rice. Both of them were delicious, but we preferred the green curry fried rice. The ambiance of the restaurant was charming, with beautiful decorations including plants and lights. The server provided excellent service and always had a smile on their face. We thoroughly enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere and the restaurant's decor.

The yellow stir fried noodles is the best.

Good food, but they need to list the right price on the menu. 2$ more than what's written on the menu

This was a very disappointing experience. The portions were small, the meat both chicken and beef had unappetizing textures. Ordered stir fry and these were obviously boiled. Had heard good things, but did not live up to its reputation.

Just order takeout and it was terrible. Truly disappointment. Chicken pad Thai had no chicken.

The food here was really good, the service was a bit slow but not bad. It is definitely a sit down restaurant. The food was great, the dark blood broth soup I got was a bit sweet but the shrimp rolls I got and the pad Thai were AMAZING

A quiet and cozy restaurant.
The waitress was polite and helpful.
The food is moderate.

I really wanted to like this place but maybe we just ordered the wrong items…my husband and I ordered to go dinner for our first time at this restaurant and when we got home were extremely disappointed with what we received. My orange chicken was basically chicken nuggets in watered down orange juice. He ordered the “crispy” pad Thai which we realized was basically wantons instead of noodles. Panda Express would have been better. Extremely disappointed and will not be ordering from here again.

Delicious food and very attentive service. Worth a visit, and then another!⁹

Great food for an amazing price. We got spicy edamame. It was very spicy! The food display was aesthetically pleasing, and the atmosphere was very pleasant. Greeted by green live plants as soon as you walk in which I appreciate!

Delicious and Fresh. Can do almost everything gluten-free. Owners care ❤

They were open during an ice storm and I was greatful for the delicious meal. Great service even though they were packed.

Love, love, love this place. Great food. Wonderful staff.

Reece waited on us and was super. We ordered a variety of things and it was all wonderful. I can't wait to go back. Thanks so much! Bryan Cole.

Good Thai restaurant. People here are so nice, gentle, and polite. When I visited the place one Thursday night 🌚, there were hardly any people there. It was easy to get a table there. Very calm atmosphere. The waiter came in between for asking if we are ok if anything is required if are we happy with the food, etc. And about the menu, I think most Thai restaurants have common dishes. Here also you can expect the same. Vegetarians also have options here.

Super friendly service, very accommodating to vegan diets, and delicous food!

Great ambience, tasty food, vegan options

Normally quick but really slow this time.

Food was phenomenal! I'll definitely try it again!

Terrible “orange chicken” it can be everything but not orange chicken
Sucks
Is a chicken swimming in water from the boil broccoli and carrots

What a great place for very good Thai food! It's a very reasonably priced, cozy atmosphere with friendly and fast service. We had the typical dishes you would order when its your first time at a Thai place. Pineapple rice, chicken satay, Orange chicken and Pad Thai. I like you have protein options even though we are not vegetarian. We will definitely be back!

The food was good ordered it through UberEats wasn’t horribly priced but I just wanted my food regular not have to choose a spice level and that ended up leaving a weird taste in my mouth but the spring rolls were amazing other than that.

I ordered chicken basil fried rice.
I saw more sliced carrots than chicken.
Should it be called carrot fried rice or chicken fried rice?

If I could give this more than 5 stars I would. Best Thai in Denton. It's my favorite place to get pad see ew and their appetizers never disappoint

Everything was delicious!!! Perfect flavors and right amount of spice! 😋 This is definitely my top Asian restaurant!! Customer service is superb as well. ❤️ Will come back!

Good food and fast service.

Sooo good! Best Thai I’ve had in north Texas. Awesome ambiance and super friendly people. Good vegetarian options

THIS PLACE IS SO FREAKIN GOOD YOULL ORDER SO MUCH U CAN'T WALK AFTER I CANT SAY EBOUGH ABOUT IT CAUSE I CANT MOVE RN I ATE SO MUCH THEY CASHEW CHICKEN AND VEGGIE ROLLS ARE FIRE AND THAT MANGO SWEET RICE ICE CREAM DISH SLAYED ME IM ACTUALLY UNDEAD RN AND PREAW SO SWEET AND KIND SHE MADE US FEEL REAL WELCOME AND TOOK GREAT CARE KF US THANKS AGAIN NEXT TIME I GOTTS GRT THAT FRIED BANNANAS AND CURRY

Loved it!!

Just a nice quite
Place to go

Best Thai pineapple chicken fried rice I have ever eaten. Delicious, friendly and the register person took my order very accurately and in a diligent and professional manner.

My boyfriend surprised me and took me here. SO GOOD! He ate the whole bowl of edamame in like 5 min haha! I inhaled my meal so quickly I didn’t even get a photo haha! Worth every penny and will definitely be back.

I ordered the sweat and sour chicken. The chicken tasted old and stringy like chicken was old. Definitely not like i remember this place to be.

Hands down my favorite pan-Asian food joint. It’s not that everything they make is delicious (it is), but that the flavor is strong and solid and you can taste the layers of ingredients. From their dumplings to their chef specialties, everything comes out perfect.

We’re to the point of ordering things we haven’t eaten before, just to work through the menu.

The price is on the upper end of acceptable for Denton, but feels like value when you get the food.

Great place if you have a group of people who don’t want to settle for one brand of East Asian cooking styles.

Super tasty food.
One of the best Thai teas in Denton.

Good environment and even better tasty thai!

Been to this restaurant twice! Wished I had known about this place sooner! Love the aesthetic decor and the food is good. However, the waiting service can be worked on to become better. I can tell the servers are new and younger. They seem a little bit unsure and scared. I kept getting repeated service by two different servers throughout my visits which now has become annoying because it was interrupting my conversation with my friend. For example, did we want to order any appetizers then later can I get you guys some to-go boxes. I highly recommend you guys try the traditional waiting services like other restaurants meaning one server is assigned to one or two tables and completely takes care of those guests from start to finish. This will also help clarified to your guests which server to call upon. Another table had signal for help and like all 3 servers were on it. A bit too much there. Plus, we felt rushed when the restaurant wasn't even full. I had picked this place because it was quiet enough to have a long conversation versus yelling over the noise from a busy restaurant. Also, please place some plants outside for decorations to show that you guys are a fun and open restaurant. I didn't stop by sooner because it looked dead and closed on the outside. I hope you guys consider my recommendations as I look forward to seeing you guy grow in success and stay in Denton.

Went in for lunch today and the food was delicious and service was on point! Thank you for a wonderful experience!

luv the Thai iced coffee and literally everything else 😛😛😛

There are a lot of places in Denton serving similar food to Oriental Garden, but for my money, Oriental Garden is the best.

Delicious

Cozy ambience, lovely staff and good options for vegan/vegetarian too!

Fresh, flavorful food. Friendly, attentive staff.

never been inside due to COVID but they have my favorite Pad Thai in Denton. I also specifically recommend their Thai tea & sticky rice! seem like lovely folks.

2022 Update: Food quality has gone above and beyond expectations. Flavors were right, portions properly done.

The place is re-modeled and upgraded. It looks much beautiful and clean. Decent food at a reasonable price.

Loved this place. Food was good. Service was great! Ambiance is so pleasantly different than what I was expecting. Lively, warm, and inviting. All the interactions with staff was fantastic. Look forward to returning and trying some different options.

Service was amazing but food was awful. Probably the worst I have ever had. I hate saying this because the staff was absolutely amazing. I really wanted to like it but I really don't know how the food could have been worse. I'm so sorry guys but I have to be honest.

Great food at a place that most peoplw don't know about. Their curries and pad see moo is great. I do wish they had some cheaper lunch specials. But overall it is a very solid place right next to campus.

As a UNT student, I’ve been visiting here for several times. Every time the foods were great and servers were nice. When you visit here for lunch, you’ll get a free salad. My favorite food is Pot Kee Mow with spicy level 2.

Really nice twist on their dumplings recipe! The calamari had the perfect crunchy coating. And the sauces that go along with both of these are unique and desirable! If you love yellow curry this is the place to get it!!

Definitely one of the best Asian cuisine joints in the area

Meh... overrated a bit. Fairly expensive for my budget. Fried egg on top of rice? Oh well.

Good quality without the high price

Great food and excellent service.

Great food, it has a distinct grilled/ smoked flavor. Vegan options if you omit egg. questionable price point. Expensive for the average compared to other Asian restaurants. I have ordered a few curries, soup, and pineapple fried rice. The curry is really good - equally the pineapple fried rice.

Ordered a Togo soup and was given almost half of what I would have expected to get of I had dined in. When I called to confirm that I received the right order I was told I was wrong and didn't know what I was talking about.

Great food! Great price! Great service! Be careful when ordering the spicy level.

Read review on another's take on the BBQ pork fried rice they said it was great their favorite. It made me excited to try because I really wanted this very dish and didn't know where in the area to get just that. Mind you I was really looking forward to it. However, my excitement and anticipation probably played a role in my total disappointment. It was not good, edible yes but not good. The pork itself was tasty but too dry. So disappointing I through it away. And no, I can't afford to just throw money away like that but I couldn't phantom having to eat all of it and well after 3 or 4 bites I was done. The plus, my neighbor had smoked some ribs. Now they were good and went down easy. Happy eating or Not

This is not a Chinese or Japanese restaurant and they don't have sushi. It was not what we expected but it was incredibly delicious. The steamed edamame was the freshest I have ever had. The egg rolls were fantastic. There are a variety of noodles bowls, soups, curries and other dishes. Lots of Thai. All the portions are gigantic and the food is so good! Absolutely a different but great Asian place. I hate enough for three days and loved every bite.

Very delicious food! Will be coming back and with more friends!

I ordered the Pad Kee Mao to go and it was not only delicious but very fast order processing! I will definitely be back, this is the best Thai food I’ve found in Denton :)

Excellent food and awesome Thai Tea

The food was nice and the person on the desk also seemed very nice and kind.

Found this cute place via google reviews (we were on our way to Houston). The food was amazing! I had yellow curry with shrimp, my husband had the ginger veggies with chicken, the kids had pad-see-eew, and we all shared spring rolls and chicken satay. Yummy! Service was also great. Our server, Mallory was super sweet and attentive. We'll definitely be back when visiting the area again :)

One of the best Thai restaurants I have been to. Place has decent ambience and is very wallet friendly. Service is quick and staff is really good. I loved their Thai yellow curry fried rice (spice 3).

My husband and I were super hungry and wanted a fresh and warm meal. We drove by this little place surrounded by plants and the ambience was truly mesmerising. We ordered fried rice, khao suey and some starters. The food was delectable and appetising. I would definitely eat here again. It was worth the money and the calories 😊

Great Authentic Thai cuisine.

Clean with delicious, fresh food and very good service. Always look forward to dining at Oriental Garden.

Wow, just WOW!! I eat Asian cuisine 4-5+times a week, so I'm always on the hunt for great places. Oriental Garden is at the top of my list in Denton. I ordered the Pad Kee Mao and Orange Chicken. The flavors and spice are absolutely on point. The Orange Chicken had perfect, crispy, bite size pieces with a delightful sauce and the Pad Kee Mao had a beautiful to-go presentation, as well as perfectly cooked noodles and chicken. I will be revisiting very soon!

I ordered the crispy chicken fried rice. The chicken is so overcooked that it’s inedible and the rice is way too hot for “medium” heat. It’s too bad because I read a lot of good reviews but I feel like I just wasted my money.

Great food and Service

Excellent on all fronts...service, cleanliness, great food, well worth the price.

Very delicious food, nice customer service, very kind people.

This place was great. I was so happy to find a place with out a buffet order off the menu. I will be back for sure. Great food great service

Food was seasoned great and service was excellent. Weather you like Chinese or any other Asian food this is a place to check out.

The fried rice is just fantastic

Decent food near UNT campus. But is always short-staffed.

Best green curry, 5 IS spicy!

Good food. Friendly staff.

The pineapple curry was excellent, two stars was plenty spicy. Clean restaurant.

Loved everything I've ever gotten here.

We were very impressed. The vegetable rolls were amazing and Curry chicken was really good. Found my new place...yes!

I ordered the fried chicken fried rice, pad kee ew and pad Thai. It was good except for the pad Thai which was plain with out sauce or flavor like other places.

Their lunch specials are amazing deals! Their dinner prices are reasonable too. I always get the green curry with tofu and eggplant. Idk why but it always just completely hits the spot. Good service, and the location is super close to campus!
