Purple Garden Chinese Restaurant

The meal for 1 is a good portion size for price and food was as expected. The wonton soup was a little watered down it seemed but was still good.

We ordered from this restaurant a few times a week.
As both working, its fast & convenient.
The issues arose, when food was delivered the wrong order & went down hill very quickly.
We hesitated on doing this review, because we love to support locally, and as said, it went down hill fast. From slimey sauces, to cold food, the wrong food & the last straw was We were given a store credit, by management when they added the sugary sauce & asked NOT TOO FOR DIABETICS, we went to use the credit & they adamantly were argumentive, abusive & wouldn't honor it.
We just got used to switching the menu items to give them another chance, to no avail. This would have been better sorted in person, thats who we are, however, the yelling and arguing stresses me out & it's just not worth the bother. Buffets at 5:30 food was old, dried out & no food was supplied. We were left paying $ $25.00 each + take out was running behind schedule. No excuse for this. None
Buffets are now limited to Friday & Saturday.
We are currently looking for another no msg Chinese restaurant if anyone can suggest a reputable one?
P & W

The food we ordered for delivery was actually quite tasty but I quickly lost my appetite when I almost ate an elastic band in my chow mein. When I called the restaurant the manager explained that the elastic had probably come from the green onions and it was like she expected me to say "oh ok well that explains it-no problem!" I was offered $5 off my next order. I feel like there will not be a next order.

The food hardly had any flavor to it and at least half of the veggies and broccoli were still hard. There was no plum sauce for the spring rolls. Majority of it tasted like grease. Large raw onions in the chow mein. Have been longtime customers but the last four times have shown a huge decline and will try somewhere else next time. Too bad as they were once one of the best.

Solid COVID delivery. Get the combination meal and some appetizers; you've got three meals if you pace yourself.

Ever get the feeling that something other than the food keeps a restaurant going?

It reminds me of a Chinese restaurant in Hradec Králové, in the Czech Republic.

The wait staff weren't really familiar with the menu at all. Always a good sign.

I think there was some light corporate espionage going on at the next table.

The buffet stuff was all remarkably sweet, salty, and gummy. Amazing.

It reminds me of Chinese restaurants in the Rust Belt in the '80s.

I'm not sure why everyone else was there.

Don't go there for the food.

Such a good buffet, food tastes really fresh and amazing flavor. The desert is also pretty good. Wonderful value for money and would go back any day. One of my top favorites in Victoria.

This meal was very disappointing. The only vegetable in the vegetable chow mein was onion, same with the vegetable fun chow which had mush for noodles (it went in garbage). The ginger beef was overly sweet. The chicken balls and dry ribs are the only reason they get a single star. Left overs got tossed. Never ordering from here again.

The food is ok but the service sucks. The female waitress who were glasses always ignored the customer. When I ask her where is the cake she was continuing to walk without looking at me. She was rude and numb. When I asked her why she ignored me, she rolled her eyes and left.

Always good ! Nice selection at lunch and dinner! Price is right, ownership great, Staff very nice!
