Lam's Garden

We were vacation in Orlando during Chinese New Year 2025 - Snake year. We thought to search for a good Chinese restaurant in Orlando. We were far from home, Vancouver, BC, as we are spoiled with good Chinese restaurant with many options. We had an amazing dinner at Lam's Garden in Orlando, FL. So good! . I am happy I made reservations in advance. The service was fantastic as the staff kept apologizing for the wait of the food as it was really busy evening. When the dishes arrived, it was hot and quite tasty. The decor is typical of traditional, old style, similar to many Chinese restaurants on Kingsway in Vancouver. They old us it was nice to speak with us my hubby can speak Cantonese fluently (not me). Near the end, one of the staff (could be the owner) gave us a complimentary alcohol drink which is super nice of him. It was nice to see the receipt was hand written! Lam's Garden is the oldest Chinese restaurant in Central Florida and we were very lucky to dine at Lam's Garden on one of busiest day in the year.

Nicely decorated dinning room, courteous host, excellent food, came out hot. Had a wonderful experience. Highly recommend. Two menus, the authentic Chinese and an American menu with two selections. Both are excellent. Start your meal with some tea.

The food is very authentic and fresh. I had the best egg drop soup I've ever had from this place. The fried dumplings were great as well. I didn't like the general tso chicken, but that's because it had a different sauce than I'm used to. But the service was great and the staff is very, very friendly.

I just visited today for their dim sum. Not only was it delicious but it was also very price friendly for the very large portion of food that we got. I would highly recommend their xiao long bao, as well as the bbq roast pork buns. Also the sesame balls were beyond perfect. If you go make sure you get the chili oil it provides amazing flavor and you can tell they worked hard to perfect it. Last note, if you are a big fan of roast duck they do an excellent job on it here.

Nice place to eat! Great food and good service. Place looks clean. Different, fun experience. You don’t have to wait for your food! You sit down and the servers come to the table with different food carts you can pick from. We were in and out in less than an hour.
