Review Summary

China Garden is described as having good cuisine and as one of the best Chinese restaurants on the south shore. In the past buffets were not offered, with most diners preferring the à la carte options. Trying it may feel like adopting it. It is missed a lot by patrons who used to go there, as distance makes a return difficult. A pity because there aren’t many good Chinese restaurants left.View restaurant profile
