Jade Garden

I’m Chinese but don’t like Chinese food at USA because is the deteriorate quality!
Chinese restaurants at US and other places in the world compete prices only with sacrifice of quality. It’s a disaster.

Not bad good flavor but take for ever to delivery so you need to call like one hr before you want to eat …

There were two great things about this delivery order — — - 1) it arrived in the time frame as promised and 2.) the steamed rice was excellent. Other than those two things, the food was terrible. We ordered pork egg rolls (the wrapper was sooo thick), fried wontons (very greasy), egg drop wonton soup (no flavor), and a shrimp entrée that had an interesting zing to it — but not in a good way. I really was hoping this could be my go to place for Chinese food when I was staying near the airport. But it’s not even close.

went there placed and order, the girl calls me up saying the order was ready, when I got home found out the order was mixed up, went back and they got very angry that I was returning half the order, since they stapled the order and I was called by the woman who took it, i did not look at it, and then they basically ran me out when I told them that they needed to learn some customer service, not the place I will be ordering from.

Waited an hour and half, called back in twice, no food delivered. It might have been good, but if they can’t bother to show up with it then I can’t eat it. I would suggest ANY other place for food.

Bland, overloaded with a taste if preservatives. No fortune cookies and they told me driver would bring credit card machine. Driver gives me a hard time demanding cash and then demanded 40% tip for not answering phone. I came out within 2 minutes of phone call, I figured out it was food and explained hotel phone (Double Tree, horrible hotel, usually they’re good) was broken and none of the buttons worked.

Food was bland. I got the chicken with broccoli and there was little to no brown sauce on it. Also, they said 30 – 45 mins and the guy was here in 10! :-)

Not the best Chinese food ever, but it’s pretty decent. I’ve don’t have a complaint about the food as it’s always been good. Delivery can be a hit or miss, once I waited almost 2 hours for a delivery. The owner of the restaurants sometimes brings the delivery to me and is always super pleasant. Great guy.
As for Kenny T’s review, would it be courteous for the guy to deliver to your doorstep, yes. But having been personally linked to chinese delivery guys being beaten half to death to be robbed of a few dollars, I can certainly relate to their hesitence to do so– «luxury building» or not.

Uhm… This is your basic Chinese spot. The bf went inside for pick up so for now I can’t give any review of the inside. I ordered the safest thing when trying a new place… Chicken wings w fried rice. Thanks be to the food Gods it was real chicken (found some sneaky feathers that survived hit grease!!) most may say eww but it somehow gave me small comfort.
They give a ton of rice w the combo orders so I definitely have left overs. The chicken tasted great… Flavorful and crispy but not greasy at all. The rice was OK but I didn’t like the peas (beef fried rice had peas and carrots) I’m a little biased as my benchmark for good rice is either equal to or better than Chinese take out in NY. (been living in Jerz for over 5 years now an still haven’t found anything amazing)
I would order from here again. They take cc Whoo hoo!

Placed an order for delivery to a hotel for vegetarian spring rolls, Broccoli w Garlic Sauce, and General Tso’s Tofu. The food came in the 40 minute quoted delivery time… yay! I opened up my order… to find General Tso’s Chicken. Ick. I called back to explain that I don’t eat meat and ordered tofu, not chicken and was told that they don’t have General Tso’s Tofu. (It’s item #123 on the menu) After stating repeatedly that it is indeed on the menu, I was told I would be charged $ 2 extra as it doesn’t come in a size small. I had to point out that I was looking at the menu and it is offered in small & large. As I write this I am waiting for my General Tso’s Tofu to be delivered. For ordering more than $ 10 worth of grub I received a free soda– pass on the Orange Plunge.

This is like a re-​run of the Seinfeld, I just can’t believe is actually happened
I just moved to the area, so I was counting on «Yelp» and giving me some info, this place pops up and sound like an okay place
I ordered the lunch deliver to my apartment, after 25 minutes, the driver called me, and as usual the Chinese deliver guy start out line soonest you pick up the phone: Ya Chanins foo is here! (you know they all sound like that. lol)
My response was okay, bring it up to my apartment building, you have the apartment number
He said: O… k
I asked: You have my apartment number right? I buzz you in
He replied: Huh? No! You come down, you come down NOW (with a very angry voice)
So I asked: Why? You can just bring it up to me, can you?
He replied with a very angry attitude: You come down now or no Chanins foo for you
Now he just pissing me off
I told him if I go down there now, I am kicking your ass!
He took off running
I understand if he have to be careful delivery inside the building, but first, this is a luxury brand new building with locked door and security cameras, use some common sense!
But what really unexceptable is the attitude, he pretty much ordering me to go downstairs and meet with him, Who the hell he think he is?
I got money, if I want the Chinese guy delivery the food into my apartment and serve it onto my dinner table, I CAN DO IT, I don’t need YOU JADE GARDEN, REMEMBER! You are NOT the only FAKE Chinese restaurant here, I’m only 30 minutes from Manhattan, MORON!

When I placed an order with these folks last night, the person taking the order said my food would be there in 30 minutes. An hour later, I called to see where it was. He assured me it would be just five minutes more. Twenty minutes after that, I called back a second time. He called the driver and said he was just two minutes away. Ten minutes later, I finally received my food. Total weight time for 30 minute delivery: 90 minutes.

We stay in Elizabeth whenever we’re visiting relatives in the area and we’re always looking for good places that deliver. Have been disappointed with the other Chinese places we’ve ordered from in the past, but NOT Jade Garden. Is it the best Chinese ever? No, not from the limited sample set we’ve had, however it certainly wasn’t bad like a couple of the others we’ve ordered from!
Ordered a Roast Pork Egg Roll, Egg Drop Soup, Crab Rangoon, and Roast Port Fried Rice and couple of cans of Coca Cola. All tasted great to me. The food was hot, the drinks were cold. Nothing was greasy at all. Nothing was salty at all.
They delivery for free for orders over $ 10. They say they’ll do Low Fat/​Low Calorie/​Low Cholesterol upon request (though, see the not greasy comment above).
