It's not just a restaurant, it's an event venue! Rose Garden is massive and the inside looked lovely (I just picked up takeout). We ordered: house special wings, Singapore noodles, shrimp egg foo yung, and sweet and sour pork. Everything was cooked well and the flavors were exactly what we were expecting. The sweet and sour sauce is house made and was delicious- we were glad to have ordered extra sauce! And the egg foo yung had a light and tasty brown sauce. The wings were tasty but I wish they had some crisp- they were quite soggy. The cost ended up being a little more than we were expecting, $70 for 3 entrees and an appetizer, but the food was quality and portions were generous. The Singapore noodles were 3 meals worth. Note: they will substitute fried rice for white rice with an entree, but it's a $5 upcharge per entree for a miniature carton of rice. read more

Rose Garden is a Chinese place that has an American Chinese menu AND a separate more authentic Chinese menu. I thought that was amazing to have that choice and separated. I think the authentic menu has to be asked for if you go during lunch. Very large space, can fit larger groups of people nicely. I had the Ma Po Tofu, they were able to make it without pork for the vegetarian. Also had the Singapore Noodles. The waitstaff understood we wanted it made vegan and he understood that which makes it easier to order vegan food. Our table had the pork dumplings, beef short rib, and a beef stew with a lot of gelatinous chunks. The food was hot and very good. If you are in the Northern suburbs and are looking for more authentic Chinese food, here is definitely a spot to check out. They also have the robot servers to bring out your food. That was fun to watch! My favorite part was that we got sweet cut fruit align with our check instead of the cookies. That was a unique touch. Plenty of parking as its stand alone building. read more

I'm so glad I finally gave Rose Garden a try this place is such an underrated gem! They offer both a buffet menu and a traditional Chinese menu, so there's truly something for everyone depending on what you're craving. I highly recommend the golden fried seafood it's crispy, flavorful, and absolutely to die for. The beef chow fun is another standout: perfectly stir-fried with that classic wok flavor that's hard to beat. Their menu has a great variety of protein options, so no matter what you're in the mood for beef, chicken, seafood, or vegetarian you'll find something that hits the spot. And just a heads-up: the portions are definitely family-style, so come hungry or bring a few friends to share! If you're in the area and haven't tried it yet, this is your sign Rose Garden deserves way more recognition. read more

The food was delicious, the servers were friendly and helpful. A group from our church went for the lunch sit down buffet. All 18 of us enjoyed it and will be back again. The ambiance was relaxing and tastefully decorated. read more

This place is different from any restaurant we've ever been to. It's a buffet, but they bring all the food to your table instead of having to get it yourself. Only problem is you don't know everything that they're gonna bring later, then you take dishes that you wouldn't have if you got the food off the buffet yourself. Nice clean well kept interior. read more

Our families new go-to place for Chinese seafood. It also offers banquet hall for large events and weddings. Plenty of parking and the dining hall is large enough to fit several large groups. Very similar to the Minneapolis Hong Kong Noodle (maybe even related). read more

The food was great! The service however was beyond awful. I went with my mother and grandmother for lunch/dim sum. We first ordered our dim sum. We ordered the seared bbq pork buns, chicken feet, shumai(2 of each order), then we ordered our main courses to share. Including walnut shrimp, tripe veggies, salty chicken fried rice and deep fried fish. Normally, dim sum would come out first due to it being more of an app. We received the pork buns along with our main courses. Once I was done eating, they finally brought out the dim sum apps. We thought they forgot to put in the order and tried asking the waitress to cancel it. They brought it out anyways and the waitress was very rude about it. Giving us excuses as to why it took so long to come out. She made a comment to my mom, "well next time we can talk about it before you order." It already took us a while to order due to lack of presence your table. My mom is a regular here and knows Julie. So being treated this way is unacceptable. I wish the service was better due to the food was delicious. read more

What can I say. I've never had an issue with quality of the food or service. Their new location is worth dining in. It's clean, the staff is courteous, and it has an excellent vibe. I'm local and order a few times a month. I've had other Chinese restaurants just due to not being home and they are at the top of my list. read more

Fabulous! Great service! Impeccable cleanliness! Great prices! Food is delicious!

the people and workers here are super friendly, everytime we go here there is always this one server that is very nice to us. My favorite food here is the fried squid and lobster, they are both perfectly seasoned and the food doesn't take long to arrive. read more

Change the menu. Looks like a children's book. 2 items per page. Huge pictures. Completely changed the menu. Horrible choices. 10 minutes to be acknowledged. Another 10 for water. Food was tasteless, completely. We ate here all the time, had family parties, or just 2 of us. Never again. Never again. read more

Poop garden I asked for my sesame chicken extra spicy and it just tastes sweet almost sugary. The cream cheese puffs have a horrible cream cheese to puff ratio. The egg roll tasted like a pine tree... I don't want Christmas in my egg roll. The fried rice isn't bad but I don't know how you would mess that up I will say mushrooms in fried rice is a little strange. The best part of the meal was the sauce packet that are obviously not made by them. I will be back to pick up sauce packets but I will not order anything else from there menu. read more

The parking lot was packed and when we were seated we found out why. Almost right after we sat down the started coming around with the food. Lo mien, cheese wantons, chicken, fried rice, and so on and so on. The food was great and the servers were very nice. We went during the lunch. We are going to be coming back here. read more

I called and asked for something I had seen on TikTok (the garlic stems) and had trouble figuring out what it was called. They helped me get what I was after and made sure I got what I expected when they gave me my food. That being said it was all so dang good. The garlic scapes were delicious and flavorful. The chicken Lo mein was great with a good amount of mix-ins. Also got the house fried rice and the shrimp in it was juicy and flavorful. I love rose garden. Great service, delicious food and fast! read more

We placed two large take out orders totaling about $60. The fried rice, wontons and egg rolls were fine. The chow mein was disgusting. The sauce was over thickened and had the consistency of paste. The celery pieces were at least 1 inch long and were left wide. By far, THE worst chow mein I have ever eaten. read more

They serve very good authentic dishes. Ask your waiter about their specials and what's fresh they have on-hand. They prepare good dishes for weddings and special events so they know how to prepare traditional dishes. read more

Horrible service. Food was placed in front of us cold and had been sitting out. Will never be going here or ordering again from here. The waitress ignored us as well. Worst Chinese food in the area. read more

The manager and waitress is telling me this is normal, can someone please tell me if this is normal? I don't eat lobster and I don't quite understand how human hair can be inside a cook lobsters head, how is this normal? I'm so grossed out and this will probably be the last time I will support this restaurant. read more

Rose Garden - Szechwan beef (buffet style) - Chinese Near Me - Minneapolis, Minnesota

The venue is clean and convenient as it's located in the Coon Rapids suburbs instead of Minneapolis; it's located in a relatively large building so you can easily rent the event center to host weddings and banquets. The service is ok, and the food is fine. If we're comparing the food to a larger metropolis with a higher density of Asian population than I would say that the food is mediocre, but by Minneapolis standards it would probably be one of our better options. Overall the food is decent and their seafood is fresh as I've yet to get sick from eating any of it! So would recommend if you're craving Chinese food and are located in one of the northern suburbs, but not willing to make the trek into Minneapolis! read more

The food is Amazing. I've been going here since 8th grade. I'm 35, They have the Best fried rice I have ever had. As for the Lo-mein it's a must as well as the Onion and Steak ! Wow . This is a Must !! read more

We've been going to Rose Garden for YEARS! Servings are huge. Food is always tasty. Staff is friendly and the service both for takeout and eat in is great. We've only eaten in the actual restaurant a couple times but when we have it's been a very pleasant atmosphere. Would definitely recommend it to anyone that likes Chinese food. read more

Bland food. Uninspiring preparation. Sesame pork was just fried pork with a container of sesame sauce on the side. Oh, and it was sesame oil with no sesame seeds. read more

They have good chow mein, I only thing I don't like about it is there is a lot of celery in it!

I never do reviews good or bad but tonight, this was awful. Rose Garden used to be a 5 star for me. Our food tonight was really bad. The house lo mien has no flavor, just plain noodles and meat. The sweet and sour chicken didn't come with sauce, just chicken. I called and they said I would get a free 1 next time. Won't be back! The house egg noodles were so greasy! Just wasn't even close to how they used to be. So disappointed read more

I went with two friends this pasted Thursday to this restaurant. For the lunch buffet and I must say I was very impressed . The place is clean prompt service and the food selection for the buffet . Was very very good I haven't been out that much since covid so this was a treat . I would highly recommend it I was so amazed at how much food you do get . They give you a p!are then come to your table and ask what you would like For the price which was just under thriteen dollars for lunch they also have a menu To order from . And the buffet is also on the weekend .most places don't have that read more

Amazing food!! Prices are a little high for menu items. The buffet is out of this world!! 4/5 because it took forever to get a server to seat us in a half empty restaurant. Almost had to find someone to seat us. Once seated the service was good and the food will bring me back for more. read more

I love the food at Rose Garden. The buffet is awesome and everything i've tried is super good. been going to Rose Garden for over 20 years now and i've never had a bad experience. read more

Ordered the house fried rice, sesame chicken and beef with broccoli to go. When I got home the food looked and tasted so disgusting. No flavor, no seasoning and the sesame chicken didn't taste like sesame. It was soy sauce only! Do not order to go from there. The food is disgusting! Ate a little and the next morning I had food poisoning. Wasted my time and money. First and last time there. read more

This place seemed clean but the staff was iffy my husband and I got there and already I had a surge to leave. I ordered vegetable Lo main just to get a huge plate of Ramen! the food was terrible, it was dry and they had no special sauce. They messed up my order twice and their food smelled funny especially the pad Thai rice. I feel sick to my stomach. go at your own risk but these people cannot cook especially as a Caribbean woman who knows flavor. Every dish is not the same but I know good food and that's not it at all!!.... read more

When we go sometimes we go for the buffet it is dim sum style where they come in with the bowls and ask you what you want. But more often than not we order off of the Asian menu they have one that's more traditional food. They filled quickly so make sure to get there early. The staff is great I've never had any problem. And it's well lit read more

When calked did a take out order noone answered phone.we went to restaurant and were seated after few minutes then bombarded with a few things to try then they j7st stopped serving us. They continued to serve people around us but nothing else was broght to our table but the check.we were there for the buffet I guess .wasn't quite sure how it worked and wasnt told either.adter asking server where the buffet is he stated this is it and then asked us what we wanted.i told him we weren't sure what they had.he looked towards the kitchen,walked away and never came back. I spoke to a manager there today and told him my son had two egg rolls in his plate and thatx it when we left because ther3cwas only x few things they brought over for us. The manager asked if we spoke to our server and I replied that he had run away never came back but left the bill.i was very polite then he said you should have spoke to your server more and hung up on me.we will not be going there again.very rude staff . Not enough food that day for what we paid. read more

very spacious and great for large groups! they gave us a free appetizer and fresh fruit afterwards as well. the value for food was good and the servers were really nice read more

I must disagree with the gr8 reviews of this place. The food was very bland, tasteless and all vegetables/breading and very little meat. We went to the buffet on Friday and they were very busy. Price is $13.50 not including a drink. This buffet is served family style with waiters coming around with bowls giving u food but fairly inconsistently due to timing and a large scoop with a tiny piece of protein in it. The highlight was the lo-mein which was very good. The general taos chicken and a fingernail portion of chicken in a very large clump of breading. The fried chicken was all dark meat. Every choice within 10 mi is better than this place. Guess that is why they closed their store in Blaine. read more

Ok went back for a couple of more times Not good guys very little meat in beef dish No flavor with the shrimp Lo mein not much flavor And an over abundance of celery You now have joined the elite list of buffet quality restaurants No more read more

I love this restaurant, it has been upgraded considerably from their location on Coon Rapids Blvd. It's just off of CR Blvd and Hanson now. They serve generous amounts and it's always tasteful and delicious! Of course along with the ambience and upgraded updated restaurant are increased prices. But still worth the price! The have an unusual family style buffet for lunch where they walk around with the latest dish they just made. Only problem I see is if you really wanted a specific food it may not come around on the buffet. I always feel a restaurant is really good if many people of that ethnicity are there, and that restaurant seems to attract plenty of the Asian population! read more

This has been one my favorite for many years. They moved to a new location and looks like going to be pretty nice inside once Covid is gone. Take out is good and fresh every time. read more
