    Hubby's favorite place to go, I love pretty much everything on the buffet, people that are complaining its bland don't know how to use the sauces they have, we've been going here for many years, all the staff are very friendly and helpful, we will continue to go here and enjoying the delicious Buffet! Plus they will make your own dish, with yummy sauces, keep up the great job Garden Buffet!

    This is one of those place that after visiting the bathroom to wash your hands you think about just leaving and not eating.
    I should have followed my first mind.
    First off.
    The men's bathroom was filthy and the smell made me hold my breath. Folks I'm a truck driver. I've saw bad things. The smell was simply indescribable.
    It was late the kids didn't seem to mind so I was game. Hey a little bacteria never killed anyone is what my Aunt would say and she lived longer than her siblings.
    Anywho.
    They said they had crab legs. Hot crab legs, so I'm thinking that if all else fails I'll lean on the legs.
    I posted a photo. Crab legs were few and far between. They brought about six clusters out the whole time I was there. Only one person in our party had them and they were lukewarm at best.
    That's about the highlight of the meal except for the ice cream cooler.
    Yes. I should have took a picture but the kids made a game of it.
    Every container had different flavors from other containers mixed in. It was unreal.
    So you would have vanilla ice cream with a different chunk of another flavor, that had somehow gotten mixed in. Gross but hey kids normally are.
    Keep moving people. Do yourself a favor.
    And it was not cheap. $13 a person no drink.
    If they would have had crab legs it might have been better but other wise the food was what you find on most $9 Chinese Buffetts.

    I knew better so it's my fault. This place was a sh_t hole 5 years ago and it still is. I was desperate, I wanted quick asian food. Gross is the best word to describe the food. Seriously they should quit selling food. Because their heart is not in it. Goopy, over cooked, and stale best describe the selections. Also, everything had the hint of the taste of nasty seafood. I guess they cross contaminate the preparation of the different selections because it all smells lslightly ike the alley behind a Red Lobster. I don't have anything against the management or owners but they should not be in the food business.

    We dined here recently in hopes for a redeeming last chance. It was hot inside the establishment. The food was all dried out around the edges. Nothing was fresh. The fried rice tasted sour and all the items with sauce were mushy. We were never asked for drink refills. Even the desserts were bland and old. We won't be returning. This was downright atrocious.

    Not the greatest. A lot of the food seemed old or stale. Not impressed especially for price,
