This restaurant is 100 years old and the food is excellent:)

The food is delicious, staff is friendly and the location is casual in a historic town. you can take out or dine in this building right out of the 1800s. The food is all a cart family style portions they do not prepare combination plates like most Chinese restaurants. the menu has something to please everyone I highly recommend this place

You get alot of food for a good price. Inexpensive. It's a little rundown, but that's the way the town of Locke as a whole is.

Greet place for “Home-Cooked-Style†Chinese food. It was a nice stop for lunch after visiting the old town of Locke! Service was good and food was a comfort before heading back to the Bay Area.

After moving to neighboring Walnut Grove a couple of months ago, I've been obsessed with the tiny Delta town of Locke, which was founded by the Chinese after they left Walnut Grove following a 1915 fire that burned nearly the entire town down. Locke is a must-see destination with 100 year old buildings pretty much in their original state, and with some descendants of the original founders still living in town. I would guess that Locke Garden Restaurant is as old as the town, and just as funky. I was impressed with the delicious meals we enjoyed. The food is fresh and plentiful and tastes great. Take a road trip and go for the meal, and stay for the history lesson. Or make a day of it and check out neighboring Walnut Grove and Isleton, too!

Quirky but really good little place. The food was excellent. We had the wor won ton soup and mu shu beef and we polished off both of them. Highly recommended! We'll be back. Oh, the hot tea is just a tea bag in a pot of water. That could be improved. Otherwise, very happy.

Good food for the money! Service is quick and you get lots for your money! Reasonably priced$$
John Souza
The food is incredible... But the location and restaurant are an experience in and of themselves. Highly recommend for anyone passing through the delta.
Barbara Cheddar

Brandon Walden
Traditional Chinese. Cooked to my families likings. Yes they offered options like protein, spicyness & sauces

Excellent food....having said that:Place is hella dirty tho. They need to clean all the walls and paint the interior. Base boards have 1 inch of scum on top. Don't touch anything...just sit in the chair and eat 😂

Ricardo Fogel

A real old time restaurant. Good food, service and prices.

This delightful little restaurant is a very special place. The service is impeccable: the waitress is warm and friendly, and accommodating toward any special requests.The food is delicious! It's too greasy to be healthy, but there is not enough oil to make me uncomfortable. It's solid Chinese food, with good flavors and some clear skill demonstrated in the kitchen.This place is pretty casual, and the portions reflect that: they're huge!10/10 will eat here again.

Always good food. Sure, you have to wait a little bit, but the food is always worth the wait. I never dine in always call in my order. They are always more than accommodating in packing up the food. If you have several orders.
Michele Yaun
Excellent, authentic Chinese food! Will be going back!
Scott Steinman
But the dining is ugly as hell and service slow
MissBlueEyes Rios
Awesome... we got there at 4pm and a party of 9 was before us. She the waitress let us know it was going to be a few minutes before she got to us. Well we drove 45 minutes what's another 10 minutes no biggie. The food was wonderful... Thank you...
Rosie Borba
Good food.
Joseph Thompson
This was a really good restaurant. Stop here every River drive we take with friends. Looks old but Locke is a historic Chinese worker community and the building fits perfectly. Please never change, its looked the same since even my dad was a kid in the 50's and is historic.
Dawn Schuman
Delicious!! Best wonton soup ever
andy Thesquare
Absolutely amazing authentic flavors who cant help but whisper tales of tradition across your pallet. This is the place to end your search for real Chinese flavor shy of actually going to china.One chef to another. Love it.

Family owned, very old with a walk back to yesteryear. Always great fresh Chinese food,we've been coming to Locke Garden Restaurant for over 15 years. The little old town has lots of history. Worth the road trip and the walk through town.
D Decker

Bamboo Whisperer
Small-town friendly.Worth the short drive. Will def be back.While you're there, walk around this National Historic Landmark!
Judy Fisher
Wonderful history. Same owners for 20 years.
Brittney Hochwarth
it's good food and very nice people. Always a friendly greeting. I live in walnut grove so I am used to the very old buildings that are not remodeled at all and do not plan to remodel because we like them the way are and have been for as long as we can remember. It's part of the charm and what us locals love about Locke and the businesses in Locke. So when you visit, keep in mind that the buildings are very old and some are even crooked...because we like them that way.

Great as always

Consistently great food! Historic and unique location. We usually do take out. Try string beans with black bean sauce or egg foo young.

Traditional Chinese food served family style
Laure Wilson
Food was delectable, priced right and the atomosphere was fabulous
Lynelle West Hatton
Don't miss out! We discovered this place a few years ago when retracing a laundry route my 85yo father had traveled with his dad in the 1940's. Large, fresh menu authentically prepared, cooked to order and served by the couple who owns the restaurant. Numerous subsequent visits have turned it into a destination spot when we're in the area.The historical town of Locke is just a block over and a block long. Don't miss that either!
Scott Smith
Loved the food in this little, local gem of history tucked away on the delta. I didn't mind the sloped floors and dated feel, but I'm subtracting a star for cleanliness. The place could do with a good scrub down around the window sills, but it didn't feel gross overall. The service was good and the food was delicious.
Curtis Griffin
I had an amazing experience at this restaurant. We loved the excellent atmosphere and the food. The staff were super amiable. I am glad we eventually managed to try this place.
