    Egg Roll
    Chuck M.

    I've eaten here before perhaps during my last visit to town. The restaurant is very clean, service is attentive, and if you want you can watch the chefs prepare your meal...I like that. I arrived for lunch and the restaurant was very busy. I ordered the 3piece egg rolls appetizer, the stir fry Szechwan chicken, and a smart water. Then go find your table and wait...my meal came out quickly and smelled so good. My meal was hot, tasty, and filling...there was a lot of food...!!! I've never seen this restaurant name anywhere else so perhaps it is someone's dream business, not a chain, but a family small business...I don't know. But they are doing everything correctly, nice atmosphere, prompt service, very tasty food, and all at an agreeable price. I'll be back, I hope to see you here.

    Pad Thai was bland and not well put together... not sure what happened.

    Meh. So my original review was 4 stars... today was a 1 star day, but maybe that's what I get for trying something different than my usual. Sushi- I ordered the roll with eel... eel is my favorite. The eel was so thinly sliced, it was almost nonexistent-- not even on every piece, leaving me with an overpriced crab and cucumber roll with lots of sauce... it was okay... when the eel was eaten alone, it was a little grainy and not flavorful, I realized I was grateful for all the sauce. Spring rolls- I was grateful they changed the chicken to shrimp, but I was expecting some flavor? No basil? Pad Thai was bland and not well put together... not sure what happened, but it looks like they forgot about the egg. Overall, I was disappointed.

    Hard to find good Asian food in east Texas. We had two appetizers and 4 entrees, including sushi, and all were fantastic! I recommend the cashew stir fry.

    Pretty good Asian food for a small town! They have a nice selection of Asian fusion (Chinese, Japanese, Thai, etc.).

    Not very good Asian food. The ingredients are fresh, but the taste is completely off. We prefer the Chinese buffet elsewhere in Athens.

    Light early dinner w mi madre. Sharing appetizers…read more The hot and sour soup is phenomenal. Rich, full of complex but not overwhelmingly flavors, and just a little kick. Eggrolls are delicious, but huge. You know, for eggrolls. I've had burritos that weren't much bigger. The fried wantons were absolute perfection. Fried just long enough for a weee bit of crust crunch and texture, but still soft. The calamari was great. Mi madre is over the moon for it. I thought it was a little heavy and really needed something to dip it in, but that's not something to gig em for. I could asked for sweet and sour sauce. Or more soy, whatever. The shrimp toast though... Let me tell you something, about this shrimp toaste. It's super important. You need this in your life. Post haste. Like, right fucking now. Next time I go there, I may very well just order dumplings and shrimp toast. It has got a really subtle but steady sweetness that lingers nicely. The shrimp toast here is one of the best things you'll eat in this whole ass county. Promise. It's a beautiful day, East Texas. I hope you're enjoying it. #iloveyouetx #sabaileyproject #writerfoodiegunguy #foodiesofetx #ztfu #foodiesofig #hippiebarbarian

    We drive over to Athens to go to the Farmers Market occasionally. That's what we did today and…read moredecided to have lunch afterwards. We chose Asian Garden because we had eaten there a couple times before. The lunch specials were tasty and at a good price. I had shrimp and broccoli and my wife had the Moo Goo Gai Pan. We both enjoyed our food. Service, however, as not as good as we expected. The man who served us was most likely the owner too. He was not friendly and did the minimum to meet our needs. He never came by to check to see if everything was okay. He sat my water glass down by just saying, "Here" and when it was time to pay our bill, he laid it on the table and disappeared. I was paying with cash so I had correct change. He became busy on his computer it seemed and did not tell us thank you. We were the only customers for lunch so perhaps he thought we didn't need more, but he will not get return visits if he is not more attentive to his customers.
