I like fish and stuffed mushrooms, and the fresh melon and various fruits and salad items are a welcome addition. There's also sushi and you can leave fresh items for the Grill to lightly grill them, which is wonderful. I wish there was broccoli available for those who don't want to eat beef with it, but that's how it is. There's also cake and ice cream. You can also order a plate of your choosing, rather than the buffet.

China Garden is an absolute gem located about a 120 miles east of Kansas City, Missouri…read more My dear friend Matt and I had not seen each other since September 2008 when we were overseas, coincidentally at the Beijing Summer Olympic Games. He picked this place and made it very easy for me with stress free on and off access off the I 70 Highway. Picture a restaurant on Mott St in Chinatown NY. The same energy, hustle and bustle, with Cindy the vocal Matriarch directing the show from the front counter, I felt right at home. The dining hall has a gorgeous koi pond, lights in an immaculate surrounding. Easy to walk to and maneuver Buffet sections , a fantastic Hibachi station with a happy Asian chef, quality sauces and garlic, good shrimp and fresh eggs; just warming up - the dishes were top notch - broiled tilapia, spicy shrimp, the teriyaki chicken skewers and the sushi! The craving station was very popular. The food was hot and stayed hot. The fresh fruits were just that and more- very juicy and sweet. Our waitress was amazing. She was very attentive. Our waters were refilled immediately and plates picked up pronto. Loved her interactions with her regulars. This was an enjoyable meal in a wonderful and warm environment and at a great price. The senior weekday lunch price after the 10 percent discount including tax was $13.03. Parking is unique as access is via the adjacent gas station and you make a couple of turns to eventually walk in to this very inconspicuous structure that houses a beautiful " China Garden".

The Tiger is the best hotel in Columbia.

How can I so confidently claim that the staff is committed to solving problems? During my stay the Hotel's Manager went above and beyond his duty to quickly solve a problem with my reservations You see, I prepaid for five nights at the Tiger in mid July 2024. I had called to confirm my reservation a week before arriving. Unfortunately, my plane from PHX was delayed in DFW, I did not arrive until after midnight in St. Louis. By then, it was too late to rent a car for my drive to Columbia. But the next morning, I rose early and drove to the Tiger. At 9:00AM the Tiger's desk clerk informed me that my prepaid reservation at the Tiger from the previous night was automatically voided by the reservation system. Yikes, I feared that I was out $800+!!!! "But, I'm here I said". "I'm nine hours late, and the hotel has been paid for." I asked to speak to the manager. The very polite desk clerk explained that unfortunately it was Sunday morning and the manager was at church with his family. Sensing that I was somewhat bothered, Tiger's ever-cheerful clerk informed me that there were still 'plenty' of rooms available at the hotel and I could check in (and pay a second time!) for my visit. I chose to pass on the offer, grumpily asked to speak to the manager and walked around the corner for an early brunch. BY THE TIME I FINISHED BREAKFAST, THE HOTEL MANAGER HAD CALLED IN AND MY RESERVATION WAS REINSTATED. There are very few other hotels whose manager would step away from 'family time' to promptly override a corporate system and soothe a grumpy client. The rest of my visit at the Tiger was perfect. Bravo to the Tiger staff! Charles B Hintz

Now don't get me wrong, I agreed to it otherwise I would have been sleeping in my car or driving 30 mins ea way from Jefferson City. But it's kind of like pricing gas at $10 / gal when there's a hurricane. So past that it was all good. My room was massive - almost to the point of "what's the point of having all this space?" Separate living / entertaining room and about a 30 x 20 bedroom and huge bathroom. Jacuzzi tub, separate shower, auto blinds and a few other perks. Location is great as is Glen's Cafe (fabulous wine list) and all the bars inside. Room service was prompt and delicious. Reminds me a bit of McMenamins Bar/Hotels around Portland, OR. I did valet car because $25/day is a steal compared to any other hotel I've stayed and parking around the area is very challenging. I would definitely stay again minus the ridiculous cost.
