Very reasonably priced compared to other places around LR. Friendly service and a convenient drive up window. My go-to is the Sesame Chicken Dinner Combo with Fried Rice and an Egg Roll. Everything great! Even the fried rice that comes with it is very good.

This was my first time going to China Garden, and I absolutely loved it. Yes, it's kinda a hole in the wall type Chinese restaurant, but they're pretty damn good, especially for the price. I am definitely going back there when I need some Chinese on the go. Really good take out food for your money, very good customer service. Great job!

Great buffet with great service, plates promptly removed from table. So many great choices we’ll have to have another visit to try more of them. Nice sushi selection.

Stopped here on my way home from a road trip, I can say I was disappointed I couldn't do the buffet, but they still had their drive through open so I tried it. The lady who took my order was very nice and the menu had some good value/cheap options for the portion sizes. I got my food in a reasonable time and it tasted just like how good, filling, american chinese food is expected to taste. The meat didn't taste bad (I'm more sensitive to smells when eating) like some places do. and the eggrolls were SUPER good with fresh veggies in them I got a combination meal with fried rice, noodles, and an eggroll for 10
