Authentic, fresh and as tasty as they come. Myself and my family have been frequenting The River Gardens for years and we love it. The staff are uber friendly, always smiley and always up for a laugh and a joke whilst you wait for your food. Whilst we’ve never eaten in, we are big fans of their take out service - it’s fresh, quick and easy. Their menu is vast and their service is quick - we simply call up, place ’the usual’ order (which typically consists lost of Chilli Garlic Chicken and Soft Noodles with beansprouts) and within 20mins its’s ready for us to collect. Their prices are reasonable for the area but the quality is far better than the other local Chinese places we’ve tried. We will continue to return and would definitely recommend next time you’re looking for a cheeky Chinese to kick-start the weekend!

Having a strong recommendation from friends for this restaurant which give us no regrets, although is a bit far from where we live but it's really worth it. They do the all you can eat buffet menu which is a bit different from Wing Wah or Cosmo that you need to go to pick your food from the warmer, foods will get dry for a period of time, but in this restaurant, you pick what you want from the menu then the chef will cook it fresh and the waitress will bring it to your table, that is totally awesome, you pay about the same price per head but getting so much joy while you eat, meats are so tender and tasty, we have enjoyed every bit of it, I like to say thanks to all the staffs from River Garden Restaurant in Belper. We have already booked a table on Father's day, so see you soon.

We’ve not long moved to Belper, and with a Chinese takeaway meal being a regular choice for us, we were keen to find somewhere good. This more than delivered. All of the dishes were fresh hot, and perfectly seasoned. We ordered the soft noodles (plain chow mein), chicken chow mein, shredded chicken in garlic and chilli, and banana fritters. All exceptional, incredibly fresh and delicious. We ordered on a Friday night - online form said 45 minutes. It arrived a little later than predicted, but I called the restaurant and the person who answered the phone was lovely and kept me updated. She also called me back when the food left for delivery, which was a really nice touch and much appreciated. Overall a fantastic meal, amazing service and two very happy and full bellies. Thanks so much. We’ll definitely be back soon :)

Came for the "all you can eat" menu. Contemporary way of this being served, whereby you order as you go along and get one portion of each starter item per person dining to minimise wastage. When you then get to mains you each order what you want, with the ability to order multiple dishes which are prepared fresh. Minimises waste from people just piling plates to the sky and means that you actually consider what you want to try.

We went for the all you can eat menu and did not regret it. The staff were helpful an attentive and soon went out of their way when they realized one of our party was a vegetarian. Food was of excellent quality.

I'd seen some reviews saying this wasn't that great an establishment, but we thought we would try for ourselves last Friday. what can I say? River Garden is OUTSTANDING! we aren't a huge fan of buffet style restaurants, as we like to eat together but this is the style that you order from a set menu and everything is brought out to your table freshly cooked. we had starters and OMG the prawn toast was actually the best I've e ver had. the food was beautiful,full of flavour. you dont get massive portions to start with, but i totally understand that given there could be huge waste, however, they will let you order the same item multiple times until youre ready to move to the next course! the staff were a credit to the restaurant, couldn't be more polite helpful or genuinely lovely. have told everyone about this place.....do not hesitate to book! guarantee youll love it! x
