" I went back to The Garden after a while and found the food to be just as delightful as I remembered. The flavors are impressive, and they really take care to serve generous portions. However, the service was not as friendly this time around. It seemed like our server was overwhelmed with work, but the food service was timely. My favorite item was the rolling dumplings, and I highly enjoyed my meal overall. " (*Curated Review*)

" This place is a treasure! I loved every bite of the dishes we ordered. My absolute favorite had to be the clams with black bean sauce – simply amazing. The seafood was super fresh, which is hard to find these days. I also liked how the staff was very knowledgeable about the menu and offered excellent recommendations. We didn’t have to wait long for our food, either. My family had a slightly different experience as they preferred more spicy options, but overall, everyone enjoyed the meal. We will definitely be back with friends! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was really hoping for a nice dinner after reading the reviews but was sadly disappointed. My dish of beef broccoli tasted overly salty and was drenched in sauce. The portion, although generous, didn’t make up for the lack of flavor. On the bright side, the service was friendly, and the tea we received was nice. However, the food made it hard to enjoy the overall experience. I might not come back unless I hear significant changes have been made. " (*Curated Review*)

" I absolutely loved The Garden Restaurant! The food was exceptionally fresh, with a variety of authentic dishes that reminded me of home. I particularly enjoyed the seafood dishes, which were cooked just right. The service was top-notch; our server was quick with our drinks and very friendly. I highly recommend trying their honey walnut prawns! They are crispy on the outside and sweet on the inside. I’m looking forward to returning again soon to explore more of what they have to offer! " (*Curated Review*)

" What a hidden gem! If you're looking for comfort food, look no further. The staff were incredibly friendly, and while the place may not be the fanciest in town, the food speaks volumes. I tried their crab rangoon, and it reminded me of my grandmother's recipe! The portions are generous, and their prices are reasonable. Perfect place for a casual meal with family or friends. I'll be back for sure. " (*Curated Review*)

" Fantastic restaurant! We ordered several dishes to share and enjoyed all of them. Particularly, the spicy chicken was a highlight for me. It was perfectly cooked and remained juicy throughout the meal. The staff was extremely courteous, offering us additional drinks and ensuring we had everything we needed. While the prices are a bit higher than other places nearby, the flavor definitely makes it worth it. If you're in Chinatown, make sure to check out The Garden Restaurant! " (*Curated Review*)

" My experience at The Garden Restaurant was fantastic! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere felt inviting. The staff greeted us warmly and our server was attentive throughout our meal. I ordered the Kung Pao Chicken, which was bursting with flavor and a perfect level of spiciness. The portion was generous, and I appreciated the complimentary tea they served. My family also enjoyed the Beef Mongolian, although my sister mentioned some of the beef was a bit chewy. Overall, a great spot for authentic Chinese food! " (*Curated Review*)
