I have been coming here since I was a kid and have not found another Chinese spot that tastes as good as this. I don't live in the area anymore but I always get Jade Garden when I am here. The food is always so hot and fresh. The flavors have remained consistent throughout the years. I am not sure why the ratings are low because it is hands down the best Chinese food I have ever had. The fried chicken wings with pork fried rice and sesame chicken are my favorite. Hot oil on the side is a must. I wouldn't be so quick to judge a book by its cover with this one.

One of the last few places in town where you can get a filling meal for under $10 that isn't fast food. The staff are friendly and accommodating. These negative reviews need to keep the price in mind when they complain.

They're great at what they do?If you're looking for really good Chinese takeout (Americanized), this place is a perfect choice.I stay at a nearby hotel once a week for business and usually order from this place.I haven't been disappointed yet.I've ordered from Jade about a dozen times.It's a good bet of you're looking for takeout Chinese with a good variety of food on the menu?

A favorite place to order ahead and pick up lunch. The food has been good for the past twelve years we have been ordering from them.

Staff were very pleasant and food very affordable. Restaurant was clean apart from a few leaves blowing in. I ordered wings and plain fried rice and a veggie egg roll. I did enjoy the egg roll. Rice was very dry and chicken had no flavor. I would not eat there again.

You get a discount if you pay cash in the store. This has been the best Chinese food I've found in the city. We eat here often.

Had a serious diarrhea after eating dinner take-out from this restaurant. I had sweet and sour pork and beef lo mein. The sweet and sour pork tasted somewhat funny, so I suspect the pork has gone bad.Even if the food did not cause diarrhea, the quality was still awful. The sweet and sour pork came with the smallest portion of rice I have ever seen at a Chinese restaurant, barely larger than a can of coffee. The pork tasted funny, and the sauce was just outrageous so I had to replace it with my own sauce. The lo mein was also soggy and squishy.Overall, just avoid this place.

This place is our go-to Chinese takeout joint. Call ahead, and the food is consistently ready hot and fresh within 10 or 15 minutes, no matter how busy they are. The folks who work here are super efficient, and quite friendly once you get to know them.It can be a bit jarring ordering over the phone for the first time, since they don't follow some of the unofficial American protocol for placing orders over the phone. However, once we got used to it, we've come to enjoy how little time it takes to place an order with them. They say hello, you tell them what you want, and they say "OK, thank you" and hang up. They don't give you an order number or take down your name/phone number-- you just tell them what you ordered when you get there and they ring you up. They don't tell you when it will be ready-- the food is always ready within 10-15 minutes, no matter how busy they are.If you're looking for good, fast, and reasonably priced americanized Chinese food, this is your spot.

Food is OK, nothing exciting just another Asian restaurant. No atmosphere it's take out. They are pretty fast preparing food but patient when ordering there is slight language barrier.
