Reviews for Jade Garden in Charlottesville, VA
I have been ordering from Jade Garden over 15 years. The food is always delicious and fresh. They are always on time with... their orders. Thanks Jade Garden. Read more
It’s close to the extended stay place I frequent so tried it out. Been getting delivery from a restaurant further away but... there have been problems with price and delivery. Jade Garden offers only take-out. The operation is fully exposed when you walkin. Very strip-mall. And yes, as others have mentioned, the staff you talk with are surly. But the food is very good ChineseAmerican. I did my usual opening gambit: Pu-Pu platter for 2, hot & sour soup, moo goo gai pan and house special egg foo young.The appetizers came with a s&s sauce tub, soup with crunchy noodles and the entrees with rice. Generous other packets uponrequest. 40 bucks total. Thankfully the quality is excellent, esp the white sauce. Quantity is more than usual, as theyadvertise. Good packaging too. Their containers can be reused by a guy on the go. For such an unimpressive first look it’spretty darn high level. The prices seem pre-pandemic. They prefer you order directly from them since BeyondMenu hits them for5%. I’ll be trying their specialties next time. Read more
Jade Garden is one of the best Chinese restaurants in town. I love the chicken wings and fried rice. My husbands favorite is the... sesame chicken or general Taos chicken. My kiddos can’t get e out of the lo mein. It’s definitely worth a try. Read more
I wanted to like this, I really did. After not eating here a decade, it will be another 10 years before I might try again. The... fried rice like everyone mentions is bland. The fried veggie dumplings were super salty and just had a weird taste that no otherveggie dumpling in cville has, and was overall just not good. The worst part of the experience was they are still usingstyrofoam and they staple the trays shut for transportation. I cut myself while trying to open, though it was very tiny, Ishouldn't have to bleed for my lunch. What also worries me about the staples is if pieces fall into the food without knowing.They are updating the restaurant but need to be updating the cheap menu. Too bad I won't get a response on this review. Read more
It tasted like it looked, absolutely disgusting. Also, not a single vegetable in sight. No thank you. Sorry, had to edit. My... fortune cookie was stale too. Would give 0 stars if I could. Read more
Easy to sum up... Decent American Chinese fast food. I ordered a lunch special sesame chicken from a not so upfrontly nice or... engaging staff member (see other reviews about rudeness) and added a drink and an egg roll. I think I paid 2 bucks to add theegg roll and drink. I was given a wait time of 10 mins so I left and came back. When I came back to pickup my order was ready.Jade has COVID-19 precautions in place as far as a plastic wall that blocks customers from staff. The wall goes from the floorto the ceiling. There is a notched slot to pass cash and cards and a small hatch to retrieve your food. I did not notice anystaff wearing masks so the wall might only be to protect the staff from the customer. The staff member forgot my drink but hadalready pulled it out to hand over to me. When I mentioned it she cracked a smile and we had a laugh. Other reviews speak onJade's customer service lacking but overall I was fine with it. The humor about the drink made things better. I carried myorder back to work but on the way I couldn't help but smell the egg roll. I was starving and snatched it up...fried toperfection and very tasty. So tasty that I didn't get a picture of the golden browniss, sorry fam. As for the main entree thechicken was fried well, having crispness and a sauce that wasn't too sweet. The rice was bland and not what I was hoping for asa friend rice but in totality I could return and try something else... Definitely craving another egg roll right now SMH. Read more
Great food , great price. The lady up front is always nice .
DISGUSTING!!! Literally the WORST Chinese food I have EVER eaten. NOTHING had ANY flavor. Wonton soup broth tasted like straight... up water. Beef and broccoli no flavor and 4 pieces of beef, the rest broccoli!! AVOID THIS PLACE AT ALL COST!! Read more
