Asian Garden Martinsburg — Restaurant in Martinsburg

Update April 2023.... have several times ordered yellowtail sashimi and sometimes tempura and /or California roll but today ordered Temptation Roll and regretted it. It is just my taste preference but this roll was messy and could not possibly have been eaten by hand or just with chopsticks because of the plentiful Chef Special Sauce on top, which seemed to be thickened yum-yum sauce. I personally think Japanese food should be neat and not messy. The sauce was overpowering. This is just my preference Fortunately I also ordered yellowtail sashimi and it was as usual great. Im just not into Temptation. Updated Oct 2022 ...egglant chef special is truly exceptional. Slices of battered Japanese eggplant come with rice and an amazing sauce that is sweet without being overpoweringly so with gentle small slices of I ion floating in it. Way too much sauce comes in delivery but no problem The next day I sauted a wild-caught filet of Icelandic cod in the sauce, gently on low heat until the cod just begsn to flake discretely. Heavenly eggolant special, unlike any meal at any Asian restaurant elsewhere, truly unique to the chef here. Last year it was fish Their new battered fish with green/red pepper with choice of sauce (I chose hot) is outstanding and pretty too. A...

Being new in town and having experienced truly awful food just last night, I entered the building with fear and trepidation. I picked up carry-out. The ambience, from what I could see, seemed to be clean, comfortable and tastefully appointed. Staff was courteous and friendly. The hot and sour soup was excellent with a nice bite and ample portions of bean curd. (That's "tofu" for you yuppies). The General Tso's Chicken was exceptional in that it was spicy but not so sweet, as is often the case with carry-out. The meat was fresh, moist, all breast and in large enough morsels to tell that it wasn't dog or Yak. I am looking forward to eating the leftovers tomorrow. The egg rolls were fresh and not too greasy, they were disappointing in that, if there were shrimp or pork pieces within the tasty wrapper, I could not identify them visually or by taste. 2.5 out of 3 is not bad. I will definitely return to try out some other dishes. They have a buffet for $21.95. It is a little pricey for the neighborhood, but my guess is that it's probably more than worth it. I will report on that when...

I've been to many, many sushi places, including some really great ones in New York, Boston, and DC, but Asian Garden makes some of the best sushi I've ever had in my life. It's absolutely amazing. I've been coming to Asian Garden for years and years at this point, and they never let me down. Plus, I know the majority of the staff and they know me from being a regular for so long.

We used to go to the Sunday buffet, which is like $25 bucks per person (including drink) for all-you-can-eat sushi, shrimp, crab legs, and Chinese food. But we realized that mostly just ate one or two plates of sushi and weren't getting our money's worth, so now we just order off the sushi menu. Getting between five and seven rolls typically costs us around 40 bucks, so you really can't beat the price, either.

If you're in or near Martinsburg and find yourself craving sushi, Asian Garden is where you should go. I highly recommend the neon crispy maki, asparagus roll, Alaska roll, dragon roll, spicy tuna and spicy salmon rolls, and...
