The Chicken curry fried rice was absolutely excellent. The curry is exeptional, good amount of chicken, and the chips stay soft for longer. Much much better than anyplace else ive tried. Highly recommended,, by a fussy eater.

Reviews need to be deadly honest to get business to realise the room for improvement and this is one of them it’s a Chinese takeaway with a restaurant attached so came in and tried this place was seated and straight away I was already thinking about leaving and going elsewhere when I saw the menu I was hoping it wouldn’t be bad but the food came out within under 6 minutes or possibly around 10 minutes give or take already a cause for concern the food came out and I was shocked the cost for two people was £40 for two mains a side and drinks £40 and the food portions were a joke I’m going to be brutally honest this place is a joke you’d get more from your local Chinese in Ayr for what you did in the so called restaurant which itself was cramped ok decor a weeks gone by since being here and I still feel like I was robbed

Update to the last time I had only quickly visit but a place I wanted to go to, i had my favourite soup which was delicious. I returned tried the seafood sellection crab and sweetcorn soup and squid in sweet chill with egg fried rice. It hit the my taste pallette very nicely. Its a nice little restaurant friendly front of house ladies.

I hate leaving bad reviews but I feel the need to. After more than 1 bad experience now. I ordered a delivery, food was here in 20 minutes but drinks were missing. I called back and explain the situation, the reply back was the driver hadn’t left yet. I was not understood. No apology. I was then told my drinks would be sent out. This took half an hour. I tried the salt and chilli satay skewers for the first time, nice flavour but I found them chewy. Very disappointing for the price. Another time I placed an order for delivery I waited hours and called back. They said they didn’t have my order and accused me of calling the wrong shop. Eventually they realised that I had indeed called and my order was “lost”. I gave them another chance because I do enjoy the food but unfortunately this will be my last. I have also sat in the restaurant for a meal. Our waitress was very loud and eccentric. Being inquisitive asking why I had only ate a certain amount also asking why our table booked for 3 only had 2. We explained this at the desk on arrival. No communication between staff. I witnessed a lot of mistakes at different tables too. My family member ordered a combination curry. I think this was around £12 and we were surprised when this came with no rice. The menu did not state you had to order separate nor did the waitress.

I came for Chicken & Cashew nuts, and a flavorless bowl of lumpy goop came out… the rest of the family loved theirs though, Teriyaki Filet of Beef, Chicken Fried Rice, Prawn Pad Thai and another one I don’t remember. I would try this again, I think I might have just been unlucky…

Rice portion at £2.40 is tiny! They charged us for chips but didn't deliver them. We phoned back and told them, so they sent another portion of chips over an hour later. Would expect to get a small conciliation for this, but nothing offered, no apology either. Pork dumplings are superb, but everything is overpriced for what you get!

Visited Viva Garden last night with friends. Had never been in before but knew it was there, it came out as no 2 restaurant in Prestwick in Trip Advisor so we booked. What a delicious meal the 4 of us had, from starters of vegetable spring rolls, aromatic duck pancakes and chilli prawns. Mains were chicken curry, Thai green curry, honey chilli chicken and wok satay with beef and chicken. The portions were big and everything was piping hot and cooked to perfection with the beef and chicken melting in your mouth. No bland food here, your tastebuds will explode with happiness at Viva Garden. The service was brilliant too with lots of attention to detail. We have all walked passed this restaurant hundreds of times, so don’t walk past, go in and give your tastebuds a treat.

This was our second visit to Viva Garden. We can thoroughly recommend the mixed starter to share, consisting of prawn toast, ribs, spring rolls and chicken wings. It's served with satay sauce and sweet chilli sauce. The prawn toast is the best ever and I don't know what they put around their chicken wings, but they put KFC to shame!

New favourite restaurant, delicious Chinese and Thai food in a lovely setting. You can sit in or takeaway as they deliver. ordered from the Tapas Menu to sample everything. favourites are salt & chilli prawns, shredded crispy beef, Thai spring rolls and the noodles and spicy chips are my favourite sides. They also do nice Thai options like red Thai curry etc which is also delicious. Everything we've ordered has been fantastic. Lovely decor, friendly staff and large menu to choose from with generous portion sizes. 100% recommend giving Viva Garden a try if you haven't been yet! X

I went here with my partner for an evening meal and was very disappointed following the number of positive comments from other diners. The food felt extremely processed and the chicken was extremely tough and overcooked in both of our dishes. The decor is nice and the beer was good but the food was not. The staff are very attentive but overall I was unimpressed.

I didn’t visit the restaurant, but ordered a takeaway; ann absolutely amazing chicken, green pepper and black bean sauce with boiled rice. The Chicken was plentiful and the nicest I’ve ever tasted from a Chinese restaurant. Veggies were crisp and crunchy and exactly the way they should have been as was the black bean sauce. Thank you, Golden City - I didn’t know what to expect with it being my first take-away from you, but I more than impressed and was certainly not disappointed
