    The family owned and operated Rose Garden moved into the old Maui Teriyaki space this past fall, and it's a welcome addition to Alachua's food options. They made the interior look so much better and cleaner compared to Maui Teriyaki. It doesn't look or feel like the old space at all. With the closing of some of the better restaurants in town, it's nice to have a reliably good place to eat at. At my first visit, I was so excited to see that this is a sit-down Chinese restaurant. It seems like the majority of Chinese restaurants to pop up around central Florida are the take-out variety with identical menus. You can always order off the menu, but at peak times they operate a condensed buffet. The smaller buffet allows them to focus on quality as opposed to quantity. The options on their buffet are Chinese restaurant staples you would expect to see. I think it would be great for them to highlight one house specialty on their buffet each day, that way they could introduce their guests to their other menu options, while still allowing everyone to have something they know about. Generally they are not slammed, and their service if fast. How places like Brown's Country Buffet can be packed while much higher quality food is down the street is beyond me. What they do is reliable, fast, and affordable. I would like to see them focus on preparing some "fine" dinning options. You can tell the chef has the standards down pat, but seeing a focus on house specialties would be icing on the cake. Given the location and potential audience, though, that kind of idea might not take off. Sadly, some people just want buffet action by the pound.

    The other reviews are spot on. This place was a great rest stop lunch for us on our adventure from Tampa to Ginnie Springs. We ordered the vegetable fried rice, broccoli stir fry, and tofu stir fry. All were awesome and came out fresh. On top of that, the sweet server we had was beyond wonderful. She was so kind and observant without being too intrusive. Our next trip to Ginnie we will most definitely stop here!

    I've tried items from their take out and even buffet. They have not failed me in taste. I love this family-owned restaurant for their: 1 - Amazing egg drop soup (the hot and sour is also great!) by far, one the best tasting I have had. It's thick, well seasoned and doesn't leave a weird oily after taste like most places' soup does. 2 - The service, very nice and attentive people. The owner is such a sweet lady.

    I have never had dinner, but lunch is consistently good. The buffet is small, and the selection somewhat limited, but it is always fresh. They put out small quantities, and refill them frequently. They only have a limited number of items on the bar, but there is always a vegetarian option, and always at least one beef, one pork, and one chicken, plus standbys like General Tsos chicken, egg rolls, and egg drop soup. There is also a modest salad bar and dessert bar. The prices are very reasonable, and you can get a to-go buffet, paying by the pound. Service is good, though sometimes the single server gets overwhelmed during a rush. Decor is minimal, the dining room is small and utilitarian, but it is clean and the owners are kind and friendly. My only criticisms are that they don't vary the buffet options very often, it's almost always the same items, and there are not enough non-fried options. All in all, a great place for an inexpensive and quick lunch.

    What a great value. They have a very small buffet but it has a really good selection and is fresh. It only costs $8.95 for dinner. Wow. Bargain. Did I mention fresh? Yes, no stale it's been under a heat lamp for two hours food. Fresh. There was Chinese BBQ ribs, generals chicken, moo goo gai pan, international beef, sweet and sour chicken, egg drop soup, sweet and sour pork, crab rangoon, regular rice, fried rice, noodles, sweet and sour shrimp, and arguably some of the best chicken wings I've ever had. Seriously the wings are great. They are lightly coated in oriental spices and deep fried to a crispy perfection. There was also a micro salad bar with some fruit. I can't remember three or four more entrees that were on the buffet. It's hell getting old. The owners/staff are very friendly, courteous, and pleasant. Seating is quick, your dirty plates disappear fast, and your bill comes to the table promptly. We also ordered some orange chicken to bring home for my daughter who wasn't up for going out. It was also very good. She particularly liked it because it wasn't spicy. The decor is plain and simple but the tables are kept and the silverware is clean. Thanks for reading my review. I'm elated that you took the time. Please click one of the buttons below to tell me what you thought of it. Thanks!

Chinese Cuisine

The popularity of Chinese food in America can be adjudicated by the appearance of China Town in many major cities in the United State of America. The popular trend of ordering or opting for Chinese take away food isn't unknown in America. Chinese take away food comes to rescue when you're too tired from work or too exhausted to cook. No one can resist the temptation of eating spicy noodles, shrimp, chicken, beef or pork cooked in the sweet and spicy sauce. The cooking method of authentic Chinese food is a lot different compared to what is served in America.

Generally, Chinese use dark meat small bones and organs to cook dishes but this changes when you are eating American-Chinese fusion food prepared using white boneless meat cooked with broccoli, carrots and onions. Back in China, the food is less spicy and oily as they favor steaming and braising method for cooking the most popular dishes. So, if you have a taste for authentic Chinese food, then try finding a real Chinese restaurant in the city. You can also try the most popular fusion Chinese food like Pecking Duck, Chicken Feet, Hot Pot, Shrimp Dumpling Soup, Mapo Tofu, Wontons, Chop Suey, Egg Rolls and not to forget Fortune Cookies.

There are not many restaurants in America serving authentic Chinese food. A little research on Restaurant Listings directory can help you locate the best Chinese restaurants in the city. Chinese cuisine is continuously evolving, and you can find a variety of dishes categorized as the food for lactose intolerant, gluten intolerant, vegan, vegetarian, and diabetic friendly. So, if you have a group of friends with different taste patterns, save the hassle and visit the nearest Chinese restaurant in your city.
