Reasonable Chinese food served off a cafeteria style line, at excellent prices. Most are chicken dishes, with some beef items. Fried rice and lo mein are also available. With the exception of items such as egg rolls, and wonton, and the teriyaki beef sticks, everything is sold "by the scoop", and the scoops are large enough to fill half a styrofoam takeout box. The selections on the line are normally reasonably fresh. While it may not be the best Chinese food in Colorado Springs, the flavor is certainly good, fresh, and tasty! And the prices cannot be beat! A great place to drop in, get a fast tray of good food, and get out for a reasonable price.

Horrible experience. The food was soggy, the service was terrible. Someone came in and asked for 5 dollars worth of food (who looked homeless) and they refused. They rudely refused a customer in need. When he left they wouldnt stop talking negatively about the customer. It was disgusting. They always park in front of the restaurant out of the few parking they have. My boyfriend came in an hour before closing and they hardly had anything left. I dont recommend this place to anyone and will never go back to support them. But the lo mein was pretty good. Thats it.

the pricing is more than reasonable its really cheap and really good food. The service is very kind and nice. They give Huge amounts of food for the price they give.I go everyday and it always taste amazing. The people there keeps it clean they wash off all of their tables and make it nice just to sit and eat.I would recommend coming here its cheep and u get great food. The full meal 2 items and a drink only cost me 6.30 one hell of a meal. They also got some fortune cookies too. Thank you

Food was...old tasted like itde been in the trays for at least two hours. makes you wonder how often the put in fresh food. Prices were decent...however I wouldnt have paid had I tastd the food. The sesame chicken was soggy..the steak and broccoli was..flled with old veggies..and around 3 pieces of steak. -_- I was NOT impressed. Dont eat here unless u catch them when they r first putting the food out.

I got the Noro virus the next day after eating here. No joke ! Will never go back or trust this place again. FYI !!!!!!!!!! Yes its cheap but is it worth your health and missing time off work ? I almost ending up in the emergency room ! The lady behind the counter was unfriendly and rude as well. Think twice about going to this restaurant, I had been several times previously with no issues.

There isnt much to the customer service, then again I have never sat down and ate there, but thats ok. I came to get food and eat and thats what I get. The food is delicious and cheap (average chinese food price) and they smile and chat with you if you initiate conversation first. Ask them how are they doing and what have you, theyre humans too.

The food is usually pretty great but tell me why that lady in the front needsto be so rude like she really would rather not have gusts.. and sometimes they dont put out fresh food unless you ask for it.. if you have a couple more dollars you really should just go get some decent Chinese food and skip this Buffet experience

It sucks to see all these bad reviews! Ive been here a handful of times and its always been consistently great! The owners are really cool and if you ask nicely, theyll make what you want fresh for you! Very cheap and tasty! The teriyaki chicken skewers are bomb

Moved here from Iowa in February of 2013 and havent been able to find any good Chinese food until I discovered Garden Cafe. I am now addicted, especially to their Sesame Chicken! And their prices and portion sizes, Im amazed by!

I was disappointed that there were no vegetarian options ready to go. They do offer special orders from $5.95 to about $7.95, which seems high when the other food is less than $2.00 a serving and they all contain meat!

The poor ratings are accurate. Egg rolls were cold. Staff was rude. Chicken fried rice was tasteless. Sesame chicken was over fried. And Ive seen better ambiance in a motel 6 lobby. What a waste.

If you want fried rice go somewhere else. This place sells white rice splashed with something that turns it brown and sells it as fried rice. The food is precooked and has no taste to it.

Great (Americanized) cheap Chinese food option. Sesame chicken and hot and sour soup in particular are awesome. Steamtable setup. Minus 1 star for unfriendly staff.

Generals chicken was okay, lo mein was fried spaghetti noodles and onion, but also, okay. Very reasonable prices though, value is unbeatable.

Almost everything is dark meat chicken, if your thinking of going here make sure its lunch or dinner rush so its fresh
