Garden Restaurant

This is a local dim sum favorite and we're regulars there. We value the rolling carts, however, inconsistent arrival times mean we don't always experience it which is ok. The food is reliably good. It offers a consistently satisfying selection.We especially enjoyed the durian pastry. Its comes in 3 rich, creamy and completely perfect flakiness make it the best. Their other pastries are always fresh and delicious and we enjoy trying them as well. The service sometimes feels rushed during peak hours; however, this is part of the "hustle-bustle charm of a dim sum restaurant". A visit is worthwhile, especially for several pastry enthusiasts or a sizable group of them.

Garden Restaurant in Garland, TX, delivers a classic dim sum experience with authentic flavors and quick service. The spacious dining room sets the stage for standout dishes like roast duck, crispy noodles with seafood, and Vietnamese-style crab fried rice. Favorites like fried shrimp balls and shumai are must-tries. The all-day dim sum menu is reasonably priced, and the friendly staff adds to the charm. While the location isn't fancy, the quality and variety make it a top DFW spot for dim sum. Great food, fast service, and excellent value--definitely worth a visit!

Loved the traditional dim sum cart service here (Saturday morning visit). The menu was pretty vast. We enjoyed the traditional and popular dishes (shrimp dumpling/har gao, shui mai, etc.). The beef chow fun was good!Overall a pretty lovely dim sum place! Don't let the exterior deter or scare you! The inside is much more kept than the exterior leads you to believe!

My family likes Garden restaurant and goes there every now and then. They are known for their dim sum (which is also very good). My uncle from California was in town for a single day so we all decided to come here since they had a promotion for a free lobster if you spend $100. They have a huge space and it wasn't that busy on a Sunday night. We got the Chinese broccoli with garlic, pan fried eggplant stuffed with shrimp, beef with string bean, soup dumplings and xiu mai from the dim sum menu, beef flat noodle, Mongolian beef, and string bean with salt pepper tofu. I loved both of the beef dishes. The beef flat noodle came out first and it was the perfect starter. The beef was tender and noodles were chewy and full of char. The beef dishes were so tender and paired well with the string beans and onions. I LOVEDDD the eggplant dish. Eggplant was steaming hot and chewy, filled with shrimp goodies inside. I loved pouring its sauce full of black beans over my rice too. The Chinese broccoli with garlic was a perfect vegetable dish to pair with our meal. Salt and pepper tofu... what more can I say about that, it's a must get. The dim sum dishes and lobster were just ok. The soup dumplings had no soup and the lobster was not that meaty, but it was free haha. Our servers filled drinks regularly and are pretty funny too, they got jokes

The service and ambiance was ok for a Chinese restaurant with Vietnamese influence. We had dim sum during lunch on a Sunday and it was not overly crowded. Out of all the dishes that we ordered, I liked less than half of them, but their durian puffs were exceptionally good. Other than that, I really liked their century egg porridge and chicken feet. I would visit again just for the durian puffs.

Large, traditionally-styled Dim Sum dining room! We came too late on a Saturday for Dim Sum carts, but the employees said they do have them during peak hours. The dim sum plates are very reasonably priced and the food came out fast after ordering. The taste and quality of the food were excellent, especially for the price tag. We'll be back to try their duck.

There was a noodle hidden under my napkin on my plate when the plates were placed as clean. The server spilled my cup of tea while cleaning. They use the same gloves to clean the finished tables as they do to serve other patrons. Additionally, they charge a tip on top of the bill. Tips should be optional, not stated as part of the bill. Furthermore, the restroom was dirty.

Was looking for a weekday dim sum place when we found this via some online recommendations. We thought it would be order off the menu but they had carts rolling around and the food was hot. Price was a little higher than we were used to from other places but everyone is raising prices. The dim sum was decent, the tea was good. The only surprises were that the tendon was kind of sweet instead of spicy and the shumai was only shrimp. The staff weren't particularly friendly but they weren't rude either and we never had to wait long for anything. The restaurant was kind of decorated but it was ruined by the layers upon layers of plastic tablecloths every table had - I think it would look better if they just did away with the tablecloths entirely.

Food Amazing!!! Service Outstanding!!! Ambiance Incredible!!! Definitely beyond 5 stars, my new favorite restaurant for this type of cuisine. Plenty of great options and generous portions.

Food is yummy and reasonable. Taste is authentic. We had dim sum for dinner and the quality is fantastic. Good portions and reliable service.
