    I finally had a chance to drop in on this joints. Expections were low. Especially after reading a few reviews. To my shock I was pleasantly surprised. The veggie entrée that I ordered had the PERFECT TOFU for me. I'm not a fan of the spongy/ chewy tofu. Or the bland no flavor kind. This tofu was, how can I put it? SILKY, it was the star of the dish. Granted the veggies were perfectly cooked. They didnt use canned mushrooms, which is a plus. My waitress was ok. Not rude, not overly pleasant. Just like someone trying to get through the day. No shade I've been there before. I will come back to see if we can recreate magic with the tofu or if it was a fluke.

    Been coming to Rose garden for as long as I can remember but have never reviewed it. Me and my family and my church which is down the street come here all the time!! Service: great service. Always fast and friendly. The food comes out within a couple of minutes of ordering and is always hot and fresh. And the servers are always close by just in case you need anything. Food: the lunch combo is great with a good serving of food. I'm a big guy so I get worried it doesn't fill me up but it always does. The broccoli beef is amazing. The broccoli is nice and crunchy. And the fried rice is amazing. The chow mein has great flavor as well. The only reason I took a star away is the amount of veggies in the chow mein. You can see it in the 3rd picture. I separated it just to see how much. And it was a lot. Buy some may like that. My wife got the sizzling soup and according to her was amazing. Love the sound it makes when the rice gets added to the soup. Atmosphere/price: nice and quiet for lunch on a Friday but plenty of people came in. Overall nice for a quick lunch. We paid $40 for both of these plates and two cans of soda so not bad in my opinion. Overall great place and will probably go back tomorrow LOL

    We chose the Rose Garden to host our 30-Day celebration of our newborn grandson according to our Chinese tradition. One of the owners, Susanna, who was very friendly, worked with us and proposed an appropriate and reasonable menu. She also made accommodations for arranging our 3 tables of guests to allow for more privacy. The 10 courses, including the Peking Duck, prawns with walnut, and special noodles, were well prepared, all delicious and enjoyed by our guests. The service was on point - available but not intrusive. Their chocolate-dipped fortune cookies, offered with their fried sesame balls for dessert, were also praised by our guests. If you're looking for some good Cantonese-style Chinese food, I recommend you try the Rose Garden.

    Combination Plate C

    LIGHTLY BREADED AND SAUCED I came here to eat because Rose Garden Restaurant is a participating diner partner as Caesars Rewards Dining. As a Caesars Rewards Member I get reward credits when I eat at restaurants that are part of Caesars Rewards Dining. The more reward credits I earn I can use to redeem to get comp or discounted stay at a Las Vegas at The Strip. The first time I came here for lunch. I ordered the Combination C Plate, which included sweet and sour pork, chow mein, and fried rice. I am a sucker for deep fried, breaded, sauced meat items. Most of the time when I eat those items I feel floated due to the heavy sauce. One thing I noticed about the sweet and sour pork was the sauce was light and runny. Also the breading was lightly coated. The combination of the two made the sweet and sour pork at Rose Garden Restaurant enjoyable without feeling queasy. The next time I came here I tried the new item - sesame chicken. The menu stated they were lightly breaded. I expected the consistency of the sauce to be similar to the sweet and sour pork I ate here. I noticed the sauce for the sesame chicken was heavier in texture than the sweet and pork. Hence the breading became too soggy. The sesame chicken was meaty I just wish the breading was crunchy. Almost three months later I came here for dinner. In fact I came here on a Wednesday in February that was not only Ash Wednesday, but also Valentines' Day. As that night was Ash Wednesday in trying to observe as a Catholic I ordered honey walnut prawns - one of the specialties at Rose Garden. The honey walnut prawns are a test to see how well a deep-fried breaded meat item is. Unlike walnut prawns I ate at other Chinese restaurants this dish is lightly sauced. You can actually see the prawns are not covered by the white, thick sauce that is associated with walnut prawns. How was the taste? I can taste the flavor of the walnuts. The breading maintained a slightly crispy texture. After eating the honey walnut prawns at Rose Garden Restaurant I didn't feel bloated as I've had with other walnut prawn dishes from other Chinese restaurants. The only mistake I made was ordering the salt pepper tofu. It was delicious, but I became a too full as I ordered two deep fried dishes that night. After three eating experiences at Rose Garden Restaurant my two favorite dishes were the sweet and sour pork and honey walnut prawns. That was because these dishes were lightly breaded and sauced. I can taste the meat along with the sauce. Also the sauces didn't smoother the dishes. If you eat a dish with a heavy sauce you get to feel bloated after eating. Maybe next time when I come to Rose Garden Restaurant I will try the sweet and sour chicken.

    Ask the Community - Rose Garden Restaurant

    I'm looking for a good Chinese restaurant that doesn't use MSG in the Hayward, Fremont, Union City, Newark areas?

    Most restaurants use condiments and sauces that contain some MSG. The best they can do is no "added MSG." You can request that at any restaurant.

The nice servers can help stir the rice if you are inexperienced like me. And if you aren't a fan of the crunchy rice, dig in asap! I would recommend adding soy sauce because the rice is bland.

    *********************3.5 stars*******************…read more Today we stopped by for my friend's birthday lunch. Of all places, I don't know why she picked Fong Kee Clay Pot. Several months ago, I visited Fong Kee Clay Pot with a different friend who gave it rave reviews. The food isn't gross, but it's something I can make myself. Cook some meat and rice, and throw it in a clay pot. Although I didn't want to come here, the rest of my friends were excited to try this place. I kept my mouth shut and didn't express my opinion. Maybe I should have spoken up because everyone was underwhelmed by what we ordered. My food was bland and needed more flavor, but I wasn't sure what to add to make it more flavorful. What I shared with my husband: Preserved egg and chicken porridge with a Chinese donut Chinese sausage w/ salted fish I was disappointed by the amount of salted fish in my bowl. I found a few sheer pieces of basically nonexistent fish in my fish. It takes less than two dollars to make this dish, so I have no idea why a bowl of rice costs $17. I love preserved egg and chicken porridge, but this one lacked sodium and preserved duck egg flavor. My guess is that they made plain porridge and dumped chicken and preserved egg into it instead of cooking it on a slow simmer. My friend had to send her dish back because she found a hair in her food. Cons: Bland dishes Expensive dishes for what you actually get Pros: Prompt and good service for a party of 7. The next time a friend suggests Clay Pot, I will suggest a better alternative and spare us disappointment.

We don't have very good Cantonese HK style cafes that serve good A/B/C/D/etc. breakfasts and most places are overpriced. Good value for good foods here.

Everything was generous in portions and delicious, so I ate the entire plate of foods along with my hot cup HK milk tea. No leftovers. Yummy! I'm really loving their big breakfasts now. I do miss all the good and affordable Hong Kong cafe foods. Having excellent service is a plus. Television was turned on with HK news.

It was very quiet in the restaurant for a weekend dinner, which was quite surprising considering how popular the other locations are. The whole operation is pretty contactless as you order via QR code, there's a pitcher of water at your table and they bring you the food. I got the Original Sliced Beef Noodles. It's sort of like hotpot, where they bring you the boiling soup and the toppings in a tray, so you dump them all into the soup and eat it while it's hot. The beef was pretty lean and tough, so it wasn't what I expected because the Chinese menu actually translates to "fatty beef." Meat and toppings tasted bland, like they were sitting in the freezer. Other than that, the meal was alright and you can't really mess up this kind of meal since there's not much cooking involved. The meal was a bit pricey for what it is, and unfortunately I can't imagine them being open for long if things don't improve. I do recommend trying other locations in the chain though.
