I got egg drop soup, steamed pork dumplings, and the orange chicken. The soup and the chicken were great (know that you have to pay $2 extra for white meat). The dumplings did not fit my fancy. The breading almost tasted raw. For reference, my total was $33.48. Not unfairly priced

We got hot and sour soup and it was very salty. When we mentioned that to the waiter he took them away and brought back very sweet soup. My tea cup had lipstick on the rim. The orange beef was hard and stringy, difficult to cut even with a knife. The staff was very friendly and nice, but the food was not very good.

While the reviews here appear to be mixed, I had a wonderful experience. First, they were extremely accommodating. I called 15 minutes in advance of arrival asking if they had searing for a large party (12). We were all able to sit together at a long table.

Magic Gourd is nicely located between the Foggy Bottom metro stop and the Kenndy Center. We walked from the metro, ate a nice meal, and then walked off some of dinner on the last 1/2 mile to see a show. Would return.

Excellent Chinese food. Took my team out for lunch here. It was inexpensive for the area and a great choice, would highly recommend it!

I have been here a couple of times each time the food is bad. I ordered sesame chicken combo. The sesame was watery not thick how it should be. I’ve never had good food from here the sad part is that this is a restaurant not a carry out and the quality is very low.

The glasses of water given to our table were all dirty on the outside, like smudged or not even washed. I got Chinese fried rice with pork and it was great but would’ve been better with some sauce. But they do have big portions for their affordable prices.
