Delicious noodle dish.. will definitely order again. My take out order was ready 10 minutes after a phone call.

Just had a great meal from Bamboo Garden - new owners in March 2022. Great portions and amazing flavor. I had Crab rangoon - best ever. Mongolian beef, Hunan Chicken and Chinese donuts. All delicious!

We’re visiting from New Hampshire and our food was so so so good ! We got sesame Chicken, crab Rangoons and chicken fingers. Thanks for the delivery to our AirBnb. Great service !

I support small businesses especially mom and pop places. I had takeout here once before so I had high hopes. Bottom line is that it lacked taste. For the first time in decades, I had to add salt and soy sauce. The General Tso’s chicken lacked enough sauce and needed to be fried more. The shrimp fried rice had nice big shrimp but again was tasteless. Shrimp with snow peas was good. Even my wife who eats a relatively blend diet said the meal lacked taste.

Everything was delicious! We had wonton & egg drop soups, crab puffs (you have to try these!), shrimp lo mein, General Tso’s chicken, spicy Szechuan chicken, fried rice. It’s not overly seasoned so each person can choose which sauce/mustard they prefer to top it with. They added fried donuts as a gift and these were incredible! Perfect as a dessert but with the leftover donuts we made a breakfast treat - warmed them up, drizzled with semisweet chocolate, dusted with powdered sugar and topped with fresh fruit!

The food needs 6 stars. The people working there are not the friendliest and for Asian food, that is how you know it is legit and will be good. We will 100% make this our go-to. Prices are reasonable for the amazing flavor you get!

Awful. Just say “NO”! Best I can say is, the food was cooked and hot. Decent sized portions.. **Hot and spicy shrimp 🍤 & Triple Delight Range from zero taste to bad taste. **FYI “Krab Rangoon” has zero krab. You’re paying for a tough greasy shell, filled with cream cheese. They think because they’re spelling it with a “K”, that they don’t have to include any. (All artificial crab meat is spelled with a “K”.) Neither of us will be back. Stick to Italian at Asaro’s, next door.

These people are incredible. Heroes. Cooking on gas stove by lantern light to serve the people of Sarasota in the aftermath of the hurricanes. Thank you

This was our favorite Chinese take out place. NOT ANYMORE!!!!! The lunch specials we picked up today were absolute junk! Totally without any flavor, must have been cooked in water and just served like that. We're not going back to this place!!!

I love their chicken soup also their combination platter n fried chicken egg rolls on point

Sat outside in the bar area and the vibe was perfect. Bartender took outstanding care of us. Ordered apps, sushi, Mongolian Beef, and dessert. Everything came out fast and each plate was more delicious than the last. The Chef was really on point today.

The food was excellent.. Service is really great : It's come after 5 minutes. Atmosphere: I like it 👍 the music is popular ( inside and outside too) Prices is 20-50$ If you want good place for lunch ( quality food!) come here

Perfect for Takeout & Solid Value! If you’re craving honest, no-frills Chinese food served with a side of genuine kindness, China Garden is your spot. The owners here are the real stars—friendly, attentive, and clearly passionate about making sure every customer leaves satisfied. Don’t expect white-tablecloth fine dining; this is the kind of cozy, unpretentious eatery where the focus is on hearty portions, quick service, and wallet-friendly prices. The food won’t dazzle gourmet snobs, but it’s reliably tasty and hits the spot. Classics like orange chicken, beef and broccoli, and vegetable lo mein are flavorful, generously portioned, and priced fairly. The fried rice is a standout—greasy in the *best* way—and the egg rolls are crispy and packed with filling. It’s the kind of meal that feels like a warm hug after a long day. Parking is available (a small lot out front), but truthfully, this place shines as a takeout joint. The dine-in area is simple and clean, with a few tables for those who want to eat immediately, but the real convenience is grabbing your order to enjoy at home. Pro tip: Call ahead—they’re lightning-fast with takeout prep! What makes China Garden special isn’t just the food; it’s the *people*. The owners greet regulars warmly, crack jokes while handing over your order, and make you feel like family. For affordable comfort food with zero pretension and loads of heart, this spot is a winner. **Final verdict:** Skip the fancy stuff and come here for a satisfying, budget-friendly meal. Perfect for weeknight takeout, casual lunches, or supporting a local small business that truly cares. 🥢✨

Really good, we come from South Carolina and they have the best wings and rice I had ever tried 🫶🏻🥰 super fresh and hot

What an amazing, cute, friendly Chinese restaurant that actually offers dining in versus usual take out. The food is absolutely delicious, fresh, authentic Chinese cousine. Owners come out and talk with you, friendly and fun! Highly recommend.

My husband ordered takeout yesterday evening. I got beef lo mein with rice and he got short ribs with rice. We also ordered egg rolls and crab ragoons on the side. $85! Literally $85. And for $85 you would expect five star cuisine, not the trash that he took home. I will never give this restaurant the opportunity to rob me again.

This review is long overdue but I only started posting reviews recently and now I’m playing catch up on lots of places! Jade Garden is absolutely amazing for take out food!! I have been coming here for over 25 years, it was called something else way back then but I’m pretty sure it’s the same family throughout… The food is always fresh and delicious, the lunch specials are a great deal! The family is also very friendly, even when I call to place my order they recognize the number and know my order!! I first started coming here when my store was in the same plaza and even though my store is now across Bee Ridge for the past 24 years I still risk my life to walk across and get lunch because it really is that good! If you’re looking for great takeout definitely come here, I highly recommend!

Service was fast and friendly, food was hot and reasonably priced. The quantity of food was on the lighter side and the Beef and Snow Peas was more like Snow Peas with beef. A little above average and conveniently located at Bee Ridge and McIntosh.

Yummy House in Sarasota offers a great dining experience with flavorful dishes, attentive service, and excellent value. Here’s the detailed breakdown: • Service (15/20): Good service, saved by our server Jesus. My wife and I are Mexican-American so it was no problem that most of the staff are native Spanish speakers. However, the hostess failed to utter a word to us when we walked in. I asked how she was doing and got no reply. Only thing she registered was table for two. Either she was unfriendly or didn't understand English. Again, not a problem for me but could be for you. • Cleanliness (12/15): Most of the restaurant was clean, including the dining area and tables. However, the bathrooms could use a little extra attention to bring them up to the same standard. • Food/Products (25/25): The food was to our expectation, which is really hard to accomplish! Every dish was fresh and flavorful, exceeding what most places achieve. Particular highlights included the Singapore Style Rice Noodles, which was tender and packed with flavor, and the Seafood Pineapple Fried Rice, which went well with the noodles. Each plate felt thoughtfully prepared and worth every bite. Crunchy Egg Rolls were unimpressive to me but my wife liked them. • Value for Money (15/15): Excellent value for your money. Most dishes are made to feed 2-4 people but my wife and I could not eat the whole serving sizes so it definitely feeds 4 easy. Total bill was $54, with two apps and two main entrees, and two beers. Split that between 4 people and everyone eats for around $10-15 each. • Atmosphere (12/15): The atmosphere is comfortable and pleasant, though not particularly memorable. It’s a nice place to enjoy a meal, but the decor and ambiance don’t stand out. • Accessibility and Convenience (8/10): Getting in and out the lot can be tricky and hard to navigate based on small one way parking. Been here a couple of times before reviewing so I knew, but it could be hard to access for someone new. Combined Score based on my criteria/rubric: 87/100 Overall Impression: Yummy House is a must-visit for Chinese cuisine lovers in Sarasota. The Singapore Style Rice Noodles and Seafood Pineapple Fried Rice stood out as exceptional, and the overall dining experience was enjoyable. With minor improvements in bathroom cleanliness, ambiance and hostess’ customer service, it could easily become a 5-star spot. For now, it’s a strong 4 stars and well worth a visit!

At long last we had a chance to enjoy this restaurant. It's a little different from the normal Chinese restaurants that we visit, but a very welcome upgrade. The service was quick and the server was very friendly and attentive. The food was excellent and the quantities were huge so we had enough food to take home with us for a meal the next day. We look forward to visiting yummy House again the next time we are in sarasota. And we think that it is worth your time to stop by if you like Chinese food served in a relaxed comfortable environment.

I had a large carryout order for a staff party and ordered 48 hours in advance. I spoke with the manager by phone due to a language barrier and was able to have my large order with special requests translated to the cooks. I did pay a deposit which was deducted from final payment. All the food was ready on time, staff were helpful and they helped put all the food in the vehicle. The food was Fantastic and Fresh!!! I recommend them for carry-out any time!

I ordered just lo mein noodles and he told me 18 minutes and I said umm and he goes OK 10 minutes and I said OK thank you and they hung up the phone, waited 12 minutes and walked inside just for this man to have food all in his mouth spitting in my face telling me he didn’t make my order at all, very unprofessional, very disgusting, very disrespectful. Don’t recommend

Ordered despite some really negative reviews. Was ready within 10 minute for pickup. Hot, fresh, good flavor chicken chow mein lunch special. A very generous portion and included a drink for just under $10. Photo taken after eating about half. Generous portion indeed. Added photo of lunch special Moo Goo Gai Pan also good and significant portion.

I went to pick up Chinese food here with my aunt. I have often frequented this place and not had a problem however today the woman that was working the register was very very rude. Unfortunately she did not understand English well and her children who usually work the counter where not there. She did not comprehend what we were asking and kept ignoring our questions. She got angry with us. The prices have gone up and the quality has gone down. The rice was so dry. also we were missing items from our order. They will no longer have my business.
