Jade Bowl House

Found this gem here in Columbus. Had a craving for an Asian cuisine and was the closest to our location... so we popped in. Initially worried, as we were the only guests, but it was late and about 45 minutes from closing.I had a shrimp spring roll as an appetizer 3 out of 5... oil used to fry it tasted a bit old - it was near then end of the day... so....Garlic chicken--very tasty! 5 out of 5. Flavorful and tender.

The food is fresh and delicious. Portions are quite generous, and the price is right. Customer service was great. We went back two days in a row!!! Even their fried chicken wings are delicious . I highly recommend!

Oh this is the best Chinese I've had in a very long time! Lots of flavor, the decor is beautiful, the music is so soothing, And I received such wonderful service! The waitress was so nice. First time I've ever been here and she made my dine in experience incredible! The cook did an amazing job with my meal! I love everything to be extra spicy and they did not disappoint! Definitely recommend and will be coming back often!

Great locally owned restaurant. We decided to dine in since we were meeting friends in the area. Nice colorful interior. Only a couple other tables for Fri night dinner. Most business was take out. We had the dumplings and crab Rangoon for appetizers. My daughter loved the dumplings. The Rangoon had a thicker shell then most but the filling was flavorful. We got the sesame chicken, general tsos, dragon and phoenix and orange shrimp. All were enough for two meals. Plenty of sauce. They surprised us with a plate of Chinese donuts at the end. Will definitely return but maybe for take out next time.

Jade Bowl House is a popular Chinese place in Gahanna. It does most of it's business from carry out. Take a look inside and you'll know why. It looks like it's been there forever. The food could also use some updating. I had the homestyle bean curd. It's about $5 for the lunch portion. This is for sure one of the cheapest Chinese places in central Ohio. It's a good value even though the food isn't among the best. The food tastes like too much of MSG. It's recommended to not get any added sodium to it. The menu on the wall looks like it's been there as long as the restaurant. It has most of the current menu items listed. There's even some they don't have any more. Instead of removing them, they just put a note next to them saying they don't have it. The service is pretty fast so you can only wait a few minutes. In Gahanna the cheapest Chinese is at Jade Bowl House. It looks and smells awful inside. This is why it's good for takeout.

Carry out was great! Fast good food! Would definitely eat here again if on the east side.

Lunch specials are a great deal, and in my opinion the perfect amount of food. It was a little difficult for me to navigate their website to find a menu, but luckily someone posted a picture on yelp. I ordered the dragon and Phoenix. I had no idea what to expect since there weren't any descriptions on the lunch specials menu. I'll tell you what it is- shrimp, white meat chicken, carrot, pea pods, mushrooms, baby corn, bamboo shoot, and water chestnuts. All of this is tossed in what I can best describe as a light chicken and seafood gravy. It was very good, although it needed some spice. After adding sriracha it was excellent. The hot and sour soup I ordered with it had potential, but it tasted like they used a cooking wine and didn't burn off all of the alcohol. All in all- great quality and very nice flavor. I'll definitely order again!

We came to pick up my wife's grandmother from the airport. It was about 7 so we were all very hungry. Her grandmother suggested Chinese and my wife picked the closest place. The food is absolutely phenomenal. A true hidden gem

Me and my husband come here whenever we get the chance. (I feel badly that we don't go more often!)The service is always excellent. The owner is super friendly. Food comes out in a timely manner. Everything is nice and hot. Tables are clean. The ambience is cozy! My husband almost always orders the Hot 'n Sour soup. He says it's pretty much the best he's ever had! (My favorite is the Wonton soup). We usually go in for lunch, but the dinner service is just as good. They don't skimp on the food in any way. I almost always have leftovers to take home. The prices are pretty nice, too. Cannot complain! Definitely in our top "go-to" restaurants in the area!
