China Garden

I would not recommend eating here at all. I found hair in my first plate showed the manager, I couldn’t eat after that and the manager hurt herself by just giving me 1.75 off my bill.

Great food! The venue is always clean and the staff is very friendly and alert… never a bad experience.

Solid buffet. It is what one expect at this sort of spot. Wonton are tasty. Well priced too

I miss this place. Lived in Greenwood for 5 years before moving here in San Diego and this was our must-​go spot for Chinese food. Food was good and staff were friendly. How I wish I can come back and visit this place in the future.

this place is definitely one of the best buffets I have been to. I miss this place, I wish the city I live in had a China Garden ! You guys are so lucky to have this place in Greenwood! I really like the sushi rolls here and the Chinese food is great, the best part is the ice cream in individual cups !

It’s a pretty good Chinese buffet. Definitely the best in Greenwood. The ribs are actually decent. Here’s a tip though: it’s much less expensive to get a buffet plate to go.

Busy, busy, busy. If you don’t like eating in a loud situations with tons of people, babies crying and overweight people swilling plates of food in a cafeteria-​like environment then you won’t mind the food, which is actually on par with decent Chinese buffet places. Salty sauces. They do like their spicy food spicy, which is a good thing. The hot pepper chicken was good and so was the fried rice. The egg rolls were nothing more that large chunks of cabbage stuffed in thin wanton wrappers. I liked that they had a salad bar and sushi as part of the buffet. Oh, and the hot and sour soup was damn good. Hot and spicy.

Of all the chinese buffets in Greenwood, this is the best.
The chicken is always tender and juicy, the fried rice is great, the soup is always warm, and the other unrecognizable meats that every chinese place has are delicious as well.
Do yourself a favor though, and if you do eat dinner there, stay away from the steak. It looks amazing, and smells divine, but it is DRY DRY DRY.
Staff are nice… well most of them, anyway.

I’ve seen 4 Chinese restaurants since I’ve been in Greenwood and here’s my ranking. Between China Star and China Garden, I prefer China Garden. I also stopped by Chinatown and they’re no longer in business and Great Wall’s buffet looked pretty depressing through the window, so I didn’t even bother walking inside.
China Garden is your typical small town Chinese buffet. Service is not super warm and friendly, but is efficient enough. Some of the dishes are pretty enjoyable if you like the small town Chinese buffet sort of thing. Here are some of the dishes I’ve seen there. China Star seemed to have many of the same dishes.

You can get buffet to go for something like $ 3.99/lb. Lunch is cheap and dinner varies depending on what day you go, but hovers around $ 9 or $ 10 without a drink. If you plan to become a regular, they do have a punchcard where if you get ten buffets, you get your 11^th free.
