I was really wishing this place was worth it but it wasn't. For positives: -The staff was nice and the place was relatively clean. For the negatives: -Doesn't appear there was AC. It was 100 outside and just humidity and hot inside as well. Very uncomfortable. -Ordered 2 boba milk teas. It was like drinking watered down milk with a slightly toxic weird flavor. It did not taste good. -Ordered 2 shrimp fried rice bowls. The rice was old and seemed like it'd been reheated. (My husband is Filipino. I know what fresh rice and fried rice tastes and looks like. This was NOT) The shrimp had been boiled. Not fried. -Also ordered a thing of the crab wontons. They were very rubbery and stale. Overall it was very disappointing. Will not be eating there on our way back home. Side note: I probably would have gotten a combo but all the food on their food line was dried out and looked like it had been sitting all day. I threw out what I had left. Which from the pic I didn't even eat half. read more

I was charging my rental Tesla in the parking lot, and Starbucks had a long line. I saw this place had Boba tea, which I enjoy, so I came in here instead. The place is clean and everybody was friendly. The food is on a cafeteria type line, you just pick out what you want, and then they serve it to you and you take it to your table. I can't speak to the main dishes, themselves, as I just came in for a Boba tea. I did see that they also had wontons on the line, so I also did an order of wontons as a snack. The wontons were wonderfully crispy, and not greasy at all, and they were very generous with the portion. I liked the sweet-and-sour sauce, it was sweet and just a little bit tangy. I had the Matcha milk tea, it was creamy and had a wonderful flavor. It's hard to describe the flavor of Matcha, but I do like it. It was a bit sweet, and just a bit savory. They asked me if I wanted the Boba pearls, which I did because I like them a lot, and they were very generous with them. A milk tea and an order of wontons was only nine bucks. Extremely reasonable. Thank you for a nice stop. read more

The food here hits everytime, no doubt about. Whenever i travel through this area, i always make sure to stop by and grab a plate. The food feels like the kind of Chinese food i grew up eating whenever i would get off school. read more

The service was incredibly slow. The restaurant was packed and DoorDash was flowing in and out as well. A party of 3 was seated next to us and the man was visibly under the influence. He was loud and was making odd gestures. The staff seemed unaware. We ended up asking for our food to go. I was not offered any compensation after I explained the situation. The curry was delicious and the fresh rolls were great. I will never eat there again. The inexperienced staff had no idea how to handle the situation. read more

I witnessed the cook in the back yell at one of the ladies up front which I find very unprofessional and upsetting, as for the food I did notice the food was very dry and was very cold, do not recommend to be honest Kim please come back!! read more

Asian Garden is located in the little off the freeway town of Corning about 20 min south of Red Bluff. It makes a convenient stop for some Chinese food off the 5 freeway if that's what you're in the mood for. The restaurant is set up more like a fast food cafeteria serving Chinese food. Most of the food is already made cooked and in steam trays, like a buffet, except you don't serve yourself here. You pay by the box of food that they will fill for you with whatever dish you like. At least you get to see the food before you pick what to eat ... some of the trays weren't filled too well and some food looked fresher cooked than others, so pick what you want. Prices are pretty cheap, under $10 for a box stuffed full of food, and that box weighs a lot! I got the kung pow chicken, I think that's what it was, I just pointed to what I wanted and the rest of the box stuffed with noodles and fried rice. I'll say it was filling, maybe not the best Chinese fast food I ever had, but for a little town off the freeway, it's pretty good. read more

Worst Chinese food I've ever had don't bother going here it is awful. The service was terrible you could even understand the people.

There isn't a lot in Corning . That's not a great way to start a review, but it kind of puts things in perspective. The owner and counter staff are super nice in this fast food chinese takeout place. They have a counter with all the food visible, and you take it yourself right to your seat. The folks were so nice, that I wanted to give them a good review. However, the entrées and sides are just ok. The chow mein noodles are spaghetti, and most of the flavors come from sauce, not cooking technique. Their actual best dish isn't even Chinese. I tried a taste of their Indian butter chicken, and it was delicious. I should've gotten that. The flavors are fine, and the portions are filling. If you're craving Chinese food while stopping on the five freeway, this should do the trick. Hopefully they take some constructive criticism, and up their game a just a bit. read more

FOOD - Combo 3 Plate: 1 side + 3 entrees. I got half chow main and half fried rice. I definitely liked the rice better. It had more flavor. -- Orange Chicken: this was pretty decent but it didn't taste like your typical orange chicken. 3.5/5 -- Walnut Shrimp: this tasted okay. It's didn't taste authentic to me. 3/5 -- Beef & Broccoli: way more broccoli than beef but that worked out because it was the only vegetable on the plate. 3/5 - Crabmeat Cheese Wonton: 6 fried wontons. These were pretty good. 4/5 - Poke Bowl: I like how you just mark what you want on the form and they make it for you. I chose mixed greens with brown rice as a base, then topped it with spicy tuna and shrimp, crabmeat salad, avocado, seaweed salad, cucumbers, jalapeños, furikake, crispy onions, and sesame seeds with house sauce and spicy mayo. This was pretty good and very filling. 4.5/5 SERVICE: Friendly. I liked that they made some of the items to order. The walnut shrimp and orange chicken were fresh. FINAL THOUGHTS: I would come back for their poke bowl. Their Chinese food wasn't bad but not great. read more

Tried to reach out to management but got zero reply. We were frequent patrons until one night when apparently newer employees there messed up my order land laughed it off. The food was terrible and not edible. My daughter ordered a boba drink and she spit it out and we threw it away. Up until this point it was one of our favorite spots but I'll skip it in the future. read more

I will admit that I did not like this place the first time that we went here, but after visiting more often my mind may have changed. The Chinese food is good, but not spectacular. It is freshly prepared and has a good flavor profile. The staff is incredibly friendly, polite, and efficient. The bathrooms were extremely clean and stocked. They are now offering sushi which was delicious, and theses rolls are made fresh on site. read more

Quick and cheap food if you're at the Tesla charger and need to kill some time. The food was a bit salty and not the best Chinese you'll get, but it'll do the job if you're starving and need a quick bite. Portions were very generous and prices were very good. I would say Panda express is better but if this is your only option go for it read more

The last time I ate there the employees made a judgement call on their own without management input about my food meals pricing they charged me nearly double the price I had previously paid for the same food before , a definite red flag under the new management and their loss of control of employees actions at the restaurant! read more

We came in 20 min before closing time. The entire team was amazing. Prepared fresh dishes, added extra for the kids. everything with a smile. And on top of that, the food was delicious!!! veg with tofu, orange chicken, chicken with mushrooms. read more

The food at this place was excellent under that last owner. Sadly, the restaurant was sold recently. Now the food here is not just bad it is HORRIFIC! The chow mein will burn your mouth due to the abundant amount of black or white pepper in it! The salmon poke bowls contain sad old salmon that tastes "off", and other menu items are greasy. We were so disappointed as we were looking forward to a special treat. What we were "treated" to was a $44 bill for 2 tragic poke bowls and 1 small container of chow mein (including a tip). However, none of the food was edible - ALL WERE THROWN OUT. Time for this place to close. Best to go to Maple Garden in Orland - their food is really good - especially their Mu Shu Pork :). read more

I gave this place a another try and it's not good Chinese, I had the mushroom chicken and kungpao chicken meal, the mushrooms dish needed more salt, the kungpao had a weird sweet taste to it and the rice and noodles are very bland. I noticed that they did add 3 sushi rolls to the menu, I got the shrimp crunch roll to try, that was good. I would only come back for that roll, I hope they add more rolls to the menu. read more

We stopped by here to grab some Chinese food. I went with a combo plate with 2 items. The mushroom chicken was delicious! The chicken was tender and flavorful. The mixed vegetables tasted ok. I wish there was more tofu. I also ordered the sesame balls and they are filled with red bean. The sesame balls was really good. We also ordered milk tea with Boba. It's great to finally have a place that offers milk tea in corning. Overall, I'd highly recommend if you are craving Chinese food. Food and service was great here. read more

There's a little bit of Szechuan pepper magic in the Mongolian beef sauce, and I'm a vegetarian so adding that to the tofu is something I'll do on your large order and I highly recommend it is an entirely unique kind of flavor spice that you've not had before Absolute gem of place think of a panda express mixed with a Boba shop but completely authentic and absolutely amazing instead of pedestrian fast food. The service was absolutely top-notch willingness to go above and beyond for the customer - for example, serving me alone at the very end of the day, and still sparking up the grill to make sure that the flavors I wanted could be created, Authentic Chinese food restaurant ambience way better than what you would get at something like a panda express : absolutely perfect for families. read more

Food wasn't good. Chow mien was just spaghetti noodle, orange chicken was a 2 out of 5. Mongolian beef was mostly onions 2 out of 5. And please don't get the teriyaki chicken, the sauce was NOT good. Teriyaki sauce is suppose to have a hint of sweet but this teriyaki sauce was salty. Poke bowl was a 2 out of 5 as well. The rice was old. Crab meat cheese wonton was good but the dipping sauce to it was gross. read more

Hubby and I have been going here since they've opened. Kimberly is one hard working lady and very personable. Portions are pretty good size, but they do offer many different sizes. The menu also changes which is nice. There's the classic Chinese dishes such as garlic chicken, orange chicken, Mongolian beef, etc. Some nice changes from time to time are butter chicken (slightly different than Indian, but good), Tonkatsu, sautéed eggplant. Poke bowl is really fresh and tasty, you customize it with what you want. The best and freshest Poke I've ever eaten. I've not found a place with such fresh poke. There's only one size but it's a good portion. Mongolian beef is nice and spicy as is the King Pao Chicken. The soups, chicken corn chowder and hot and sour soups are classic and tasty as well. . Boba drinks are not super sweet like other boba drinks I have at other places. The Taro milk tea is good as are the other flavors. Overall this place is definitely a must try for Poke, soups and other Asian dishes. Most are made very fresh and never sitting getting stale. This is my favorite stop in Corning! They will be open Christmas Day 2022! read more

Driving through and family wanted Asian food. Found this place with 4 stars so decided to give it a try. Orange chicken left a weird aftertaste. My toddler had a bite of the teriyaki chicken and refused to eat the rest. Chow mein was made with spaghetti noodles. Should have gone a little further and had Panda Express instead. read more

The food is great, I usually am not a big fan of asian food but the food here is amazing and the service is awesome! I was holding my baby and the lady helping me offered to help me to my car to carry my food! Would give 10 stars if I could read more

There seems to be a lot of negative feedback about their chow mein. I actually thought it was delicious and liked the used of spaghetti type noodles because it holds it better with sauce and veggies. I got it with their chicken teriyaki which is amazing! I was so surprised by how good it was. My partner got beef and broccoli with fried rice which he really enjoyed. He just wished that there were was more beef. We also got the egg drop soup. It was a 105 degree day and this thing was soooo good. I was sweating eating it but was so worth it. If we are ever in the area, we would totally come back. Also the owner is the sweetest lady ever. She is so nice even though the white kid in front of me made fun of her voice and gave her a hard time by making up orders. He asked for "spicy chicken" when literally all of the protein options were listed. She tried to ask clarifying questions and he just stood there. She handled it with grace and she deserves a million stars for dealing with that racist crap. read more

We were on our way to Shasta Lake and I was craving for Chinese food. So we stopped by this place. I thought it was just another mediocre Chinese fast food. To my surprise, their food is just fresh as a normal dine-in restaurant and the portion is decent. My daughter and I shared a 2 entrees fried rice with broccoli beef and green been pork (I took the photo almost half way). When we ordered the same at Panda Express, we always had to do add another item. My husband ordered pineapple honey shrimp. It's golden crispy! They also have poke bowls that look very fresh. I will stop by on our way back!! If time permits I'll leave a review and let you all know how the poke bowl tastes. read more
