I thought the food was very good. I'm always nervous about buffets but this place is worth trying.

They do not have sushi and this place has very poor food and service. Stay away of this place.

We were looking for food after eating crappy "5-Star" hotel food all weekend. We saw this place while driving around and we thought we had struck gold, but really we found a diamond. This place not only had delicious food, a large selection of it, very kind workers, and a chill environment. I am from Pittsburgh but I would take the drive to come here again. The California rolls are amazing, if you need a place to go for some good food, this is it. read more

Bamboo Gardens Buffet - Current alcohol choices - Buffets Near Me - Greenfield, Indiana

The only chinese type buffet in this town. The food is decent and there is a decent variety of dishes to choose from. The service is also exceptional. One thing that can be better is the selection of sushi. This buffet is a sit, eat, and then pay type of buffet. Would try again and would recommend. read more

Food was just ok but the staff tried telling us our daughter was to big to be of the kids menu age when in fact she was. They charged us for an adult and we should have just left but we didn't. I would not recommend this location and we will never be returning. read more

Excellent food, great prices, and wonderful owners. Buffet is always clean, hot, and fresh. I go out of my way to come here. Definitely a must try!!! read more

I have to admit, we haven't been to a buffet in a while, post covid. We tried this many years ago, and didn't care for it, but was in the area, and thought we would try again. We were pleasantly surprised! Everything was hot and fresh, and our dinner was great! The lo mein is some of the best I've ever had on a buffet. They also had potstickers that were really good too. I tend to like chicken dishes, and really enjoyed the bourbon and pepper chicken. Very happy we gave another try, we will be back! read more

Service and food has went down hill and the price up. Everything was cold and didn't refill the hour we were there and 5 other families there. Kids happy, Mama not so much. read more

Bamboo Gardens Buffet - Grateful - Buffets Near Me - Greenfield, Indiana

We enjoy a lot of their food. They generally have a diverse selection so there is something for everyone. We enjoy their Hot and Sour Soup when it is not real spicy. They also have salad bar with fresh fruit and desserts also. The only issue we have is if you go toward the end of lunch service the food is not hot so they must turn the steam tables back. I can understand but there must be another answer. Perhaps during the last hour of the lunch time you could just order what you want from the buffet's but it would come from the kitchen while the buffet area is being cleaned and ready for dinner service. We have ordered take out from there and it is always hot and very good. They do a good job of checking on you and asking if you need more drink. Service is good even though you are doing most of the work. read more

My wife and I have been coming here since the 1990s and we watched the previous owner's kids grow up. We walk in tonight and the place is under New Hispanic ownership. That's a first for me. Chinese place. Used to have to pay before eating, now you pay after eating. Okay, fine. We came here for the food which has always been great. The good news is, there were lots of staff. Previously, that wasn't the case. So things are looking up. Not so fast. There was almost no food. The food that was there was old, overcooked and absolutely terrible. Awful. And people who know about the crab Rangoon here - KNOW it's the best. Not anymore it isn't. They don't make it the same way any longer. Really a dumb move Mr. New Owner. My wife didn't even eat. My son has been here with me before and also liked it very much. Not any longer. Really disappointed. A long standing place I'm crossing off the list. After we wondered what happened to the former owners, who were very sweet people, I found this on trip advisor: https://www.tripadvisor.com/Restaurant_Review-g37155-d905284-Reviews-Bamboo_Gardens_Buffet-Greenfield_Indiana.html. Take a look at the review from April 2023. Almost just like mine. Sad day greenfield! Sad day! read more

Diamond in the rough! Wedged between two hotels and close to the highway. We stopped here missing the buffet experience and we're so happy that we did. Seated right away we were able to grab plates and pick out yummy options. I was a little nervous that the options were going to be too limited but pleasantly surprised to be wrong. They wasted no space here by loading up on all the favorites: General Tso, bourbon street chicken, beef and broccoli, teriyaki chicken, Szechuan chicken, chicken on a stick. They offered steamed rice, fried rice and lo mein. Even options for our daughter that included pizza and French fries. There's a little bit of everything here and they really went out of their way to cover all the bases. Personally I loved the garlic green beans as well! Delicious! Finishing off the meal we had ice cream, cake, melon and sugar donuts. We left with very full bellies and happy. Only drawback was the lack of music in the background. It made it so quite but in a way it was also nice and refreshing. read more

There's something shady going on here. The cashier came to my table to check me out before I could walk up to pay. She ran my credit card through her phone and then refused to give me a credit card receipt. This is no way to do business. I've been coming here on and off for two years, but I won't be back; I don't trust my card information is secure. read more

Best buffet I have been able to find in town. I think when you review a buffet you have to take into consideration that it is what it is. This isn't an elegant dining experience. This isn't something that you will walk away from feeling fresh. This is a down and dirty, hike up your skirt, and pop that pants button open experience. The food here is always consistent. The people leave you alone to feast like a cave animal, as they should. It's clean. It's yummy. It's inexpensive. AND THE FOOD KEEPS COMING read more

Simple buffet- It is buffet food so do not expect high quality and great tasting food, but it is still good and there is quite the variety. Lots of kid friendly food and it is all you can eat. Not bad! read more

We decided to stop in for a lunch and got there right when all the food was fresh. Not a lot of choices compared to some other places but all the staples. Everything tasted good then us and the staff was very friendly. read more

what the heck, this is the WORST buffet i think ive ever been too. food was lukewarm at best, maybe 15 options to chose from in total, everything was picked over and we went for lunch (1:30 pm, mind you they only opened at 11 am). the best thing here was the Dr. Pepper i got to drink. do not recommend read more

Have been here three times, a 30 minute drive from home. Have not been disappointed. The food is good, (not great, but good, it is a buffet), the staff is friendly, the place is clean. read more

Normal Chinese buffet. Clean and tidy. Fresh food, some sushi available. Staff was efficient with plate removal and drink refills. Skewered chicken was fresh and tasted rotisserie. read more

We were too busy enjoying all the great food and forgot to take pictures. The past few times we had been here the food was just so-so. We ate there last Friday with friends and everything was great. The wait staff was very friendly and helpful. The food was all the correct temperature and plentiful. Hubby's favorite is Pepper Steak and it was on the lunch buffet. The Senior Discount is always appreciated. read more

4 stars for this reason For the area, it's the best Chinese food we've been able to find in over 2 years. Is it perfect? Nope. Is it the best Chinese food you have ever had? Also no lol is it about what you would imagine for a small town Chinese buffet? Pretty much. The selection is decent, and we have never had cold food or needed to return food due to quality/taste. Think 2-3 steps above Panda Express. All in all, we order from here a couple times a month and eat at home. Worth the money to satisfy the Asian cuisine craving. read more

Ever since this restaurant changed owners, oh. My. Gosh. The food is ALWAYS hot and fresh, always clean, and the staff there are always so kind. It feels like I'm part of a family when I go in there. The new owners have really breathed a new life into this place and I can tell they take pride in their work. As long as they continue to be like this, I will always be coming back. read more

The food was really good and the staff was friendly and helpful when we needed something.

Very rude and unpleasant people! The ate already angry because you showed up! I would not recommend that place to anyone! Thanks Werner read more

One of the best Buffets I've been to in a long time. Real real good. If you're looking for a buffet stop here. Your food options are in abundance for a Buffet. Service was nice and friendly. Stop here. read more

Great food. Decent price. Even with the owner change this place is the best! Keep up the great work!

3 stars is way to high for this place. There is almost nothing on this buffet and the stuff that is there has no flavor at all. When you get Off the highway trust me just keep driving past this place. read more

Delicious Chineese foods especially crab, shrimp and fish dishes. Also multiple chicken dishes. 4 bars of food, reasonably priced with attentive service. read more

Truckers , Travelers and Locals , C'mon in ! I've been to several Chinese Buffets across the country . I have to say this is one of or the best in this Genre of food and eating . The food was fresh and everything tasted really well . This restaurant is proud of its cleanliness and it shows. It has easy access from Highway 70 I recommend this one to all ! read more

Do not go!!! Food was bad with no taste. You could tell the food had been on the bar for hours. Sign outside advertised Sushi and the Sushi bar was closed down permanently. Very expensive for two people. Poor customer service. read more

Ick. Expensive. Bad crab Rangoons. Sticky tables, silverware, and buffet utensils. I'd find somewhere else.

Steam tray cafeteria food AT BEST. What is supposed to be hot is warm and what is supposed to be cold is warm. The place is dirty and run down and there is no service to speak of. They got my money once, that is all. read more

The food here has gotten so much better everything is much more cleaner with the new owners and the service was excellent.

Solid Chinese buffet. The people are always friendly. Went at 4pm and there were not many people. The service was great. Never had an empty glass. They have limited items right now due to COVID. Everyone was wearing a mask and there is sanitizer everywhere. Parking is out front and easy. Food is always hot and fresh read more

Food was OK, nothing to go nuts over. Was going to get some blueberry cobbler and ice cream when a cockroach walked across the serving area. Left my dessert on the table and left immediately. Cockroaches on the buffet line are unacceptable read more

Drove in to a hotel and saw this which I thought might be better than the chain restaurants. The place looked clean. Two tables were set for cutting beans and rolling silverware. Large variety and pretty much what you expect at any Asian buffet. Top picks: boiled shrimp, jewel shrimp stuffed mushrooms and the California sushi. We were there at 7:40 and a lot of food looked dried or over cooked. The potstickers tasted good but most were burnt on one side. The brown soup I thought was hot and spicy was beef broth over cooked with corn starch. Might have been a bit tasty but Luke warm. Did I say the sushi was good? Price was about average to any place else $12.95. + the drink (other than water) I probably would pass this again but worth a try if you don't like the other choices. Next time through I'll get my White Castle Fox instead read more

Love this place! Give it a try. It always hits the spot and the owners are so sweet. The hot and sour soup and Crab Rangoon are my favorites (they make them all by hand via a looong process and they are tasty so don't waste any)! read more

Note- I'm going to be using the acronym FTA which stands for "For The Area" in many of my upcoming reviews, FYI (For your information). FTA- not bad, but certainly nothing to write home about Went out to lunch with some co-workers during my first week of work, and we ended up here. I dare say this is the only Chinese restaurant in a 5 mile, maybe even 10 mile radius. For a $6 buffet, it's about what you'd expect. They have a variety of Asian dishes and American dishes, heck they even have sushi (though I did not try any. As a rule of thumb, I tend not to get buffet sushi, unless that's what the place specializes in such asTodai, Onami, etc...). No one dish stood out, but for $6, you certainly get your money's worth. It costs as much as a value meal, or a sub combo at any of the sandwich places on State Road. If you're craving fast food like Chinese food at a decent price, check this place out. I wouldn't say this place is worth driving to by any means, but if you're in the area, it'll do in a pinch. Chuck Norris Rating- jab to the ACL read more

Average average and below average. That's about it. Large buffets 4 big areas of different chicken and rice. Food is warm and below average taste. Service for refills is slow and non responsive. Food quality is average to below average. I tried every kind of chicken they had chicken wings general tso chicken and Bourben chicken. Chicken on a stick. All tasted the same. Desserts where plain and boring. Vanilla ice cream machine. read more

My family has gone to bamboo garden since it opened in greenfield ( i believe around 1990) and although there is a lot of competition with where to go for Chinese restaurants, as there are many Chinese restaurants around the greenfield area, me and my family usually pick bamboo garden for a few reasons. Of course, with any restaurant they have problems, but the pros outweigh the cons. Pros- The food is amazing, their sugar biscuits(i believe they are called) are very well made. My favorites that I get there are crystal shrimp, sweet and sour chicken, pink fluff, crab rangoon, and french fries. The service is quite good, the people that work there are very kind, and you are seated right after paying, and can immediately eat. The food hasn't ever been cold, or gone bad when i go to eat, which is to be expected of a restaurant, but still appreciated. And the style, the paintings and music they have in the background makes the restaurant feel peaceful and traditional, overall a lot of good things going for the restaurant. Cons- The biggest problem they have is the selection, there's only about 30 foods you can eat there, which sounds like a lot, but for a Chinese restaurant they should have at least double, and not all of them are good. And the sushi they have is not that good in my opinion, which is not what you'd expect from a Chinese restaurant it has hardly any fish in it, and most of the sushi they have only has 1 thing in it other than rice and seaweed. Overall a solid 4 out of 5. -Nathan S. read more
