"Food is AMAZING! Best sweet and sour soup I have ever had. Service was fine. My biggest issue is they advertise a buffet on there website and on there front window but there is NO buffet , apparently there has not been for a while now but they haven’t updated anything to say that."

"Ok, I read the reviews and should have thought better but I gave them the benefit of a doubt, bad move. Out of the 6 different dishes not a single 1 was any good. The egg rolls were greasy, soggy, and n had no flavor. The fried rice... Have you ever smelled a old fridge like really old that was the taste I got from almost all the dishes, the rice worst of all. I'm disappointed on so many levels, and still hungry as I cannot even force myself to eat this. Do not eat here, I'm usually not a mean person in my reviews but... You completely destroyed every dish and took forever to cook this slop. I wouldn't serve this to the homeless or animals"

Food Adventures with Sheldon – Oliver Garden Restaurant
Despite their humble appearance and need for a facelift, our hidden gem served the best Chinese takeout around. Finding that kind of spot here felt like chasing a culinary ghost – until a local reader recommended, I try the Oliver Garden Restaurant and because of that recommendation, I think I finally found the place to fill that void that’s been there ever since I moved.
