This was my first time going to Plum Garden and I will definitely be returning. My visit was on a Saturday evening and I was happy I made a reservation. It was super busy, so service took a little extra time, but we were on a date night and enjoyed the time to just sit and talk for a while. The food was excellent and it got quieter as patrons started to leave. The portions are huge and we had lots of left overs to bring home with us. They had a special for Lent of lobster fried rice. We highly recommend trying it if its offered!!! The homemade spring roll was amazing as well. We are looking forward to our next dinner at Plum Garden. I am new to the area and LOVE finding a gem like this!!!

I’m a vegetarian and found Plum Garden’s lunch menu with limited choices for my dietary needs. The servers seemed a little scatterbrained; one server did not write down our orders and tried to remember what we told him. He had to come back three times to ask us what it was we ordered. Another server had long black hair that seemed to hang over the food we ordered when she brought it to our table; she should have had her hair tied back. This is not the first time I’ve eaten at Plum Garden; other times have been more pleasant.

This was a wonderful experience. From the time we walked in and was greeted by a smiling lady to the time we left, everyone made our time there a pleasant one. The ambiance was festive, the staff, everyone, was pleasant and engaged. The food, oh, the food! Delicious. We started with crab ragoon followed by Mongolian beef, sweet sour chicken and fried rice. We not only ate until we couldn't anymore but took home enough for two meals. All in all, we will definitely be returning If I could give more than 5 stars, I would give 10.
