In every city, mecca and town there is a Chinese food restaurant that is prefered. For me that place is Panda Garden. The decor, themed after pandas rolling in bamboo, is very chic and clean with dark shiny wood outlining both booths and tables. The bathrooms are spotless and private, and thee is a large seperate dining area for parties and large groups. The food itself is remarkable, countering your typical fried chicken and french fries with genuine Pepper chicken and even fresh rolls of sushi (Eel roll, anyone?). Fresh fish and other seafoods are supplied daily, providing the best crab legs in Newton. Oh and yes, the soft serve machine is a plus, with a whole desert cart full of sweets and toppings included. The food that is suppose to be spicey is actually quite flavored, while savory or creamy dishes are just perfect. At around $22 for two people. drink included, its hard to beat in town. Highly recomended.

Excellent buffet on Friday and Saturday nights. Not so fantastic on other nights. The reason for this is because some nights there arent as many people. The food is good as long as the food is being rotated constantly. Not having enough people eating there causes them to leave the food sitting there longer. The weekend evenings are optimal since there are more people eating out then. I think Saturday night is also the night they have crab legs. Its great!

Amazing. Always loved the Panda Garden and since their reopening, it seems even better. Maybe I only appreciated it more since it was almost lost to fire, but the food was amazing, the staff were awesome and the buffet was always full with my favorites.

The best Chinese buffet around. Almost everything was amazing. The only problem is the buffet is only open certain times during the day. I will be coming back!!

Its okay for a buffet style Chinese eatery. Food isnt replenished fast enough when its busy but flavor is consistent. Used to be better about 6 years ago

Have to get the buffet between 4 and 6. After that they let the food sit out to long and it starts to taste like crap. Parking is limited

There are many options for food and it is always good. Sundays are the best days as it is a Buffet and Sundays the food is the freshest.

Very quick, food is often low quality even for a buffet. Staff seem to be complacent regarding table services.
