All our family members are American Citizens. So we learned to love this country as ours, as we love our Country of origin. Our family is from Fuzhou Fujian in China. My father, used to be a product delivery driver for some years. In 1993, while making a delivery in Waynesboro VA, He noticed a small chinese take out joint for sale next to Kroger Shopping Center. He felt mesmerized with the idea of such a great spot for a family business and bring the flavors from our hometown to the locals in Virginia. Later on 1994, we opened Ming Garden for business as a small take-out Restaurant. Customers were constantly suggesting the idea of a Chinese Buffet so we expanded and added the dine in Buffet.

Things went well, so in 2006, the current premises close by were for sale. It took nearly 2 years to complete the renovations (it was in bad shape but with great potential).

In 2008, New Ming Garden open its beautiful new Restaurant offering our Patrons more than 100 items to choose from. Today is considered the Best Chinese Buffet in Augusta County, Nelson County, Waynesboro and Staunton. Thanks to you, our Community and this amazing country, we enjoy the opportunity to cook and to serve food, to be delightful, eye appealing and satisfying for all tastes and ages.

Enjoy some of those pictures below from 2008, (notice the banner outside of the building prior to the opening in 2008). Thanks for been part of our history.
