Jade Garden

The fried noodles options on the lunch menu ($7.95) is worth getting. Perfect amount of fried noodles and plenty of protein of your choice. I tried the seafood with vegetables. Mixed seafood with Chinese broccoli. 9/10! TIP- ask for hot chili oil. It pairs so well with the fried noodles.

With Chinatown becoming more modernized and new fusion restaurants opening up, it's always nice to have a reliable old-school Chinatown place in your back pocket, and Jade Garden is it for my family. We've been coming here for over a decade, and there's a reason why we keep on coming back.While the prices have increased with the rest of Chinatown, the quality is still great and the portion sizes don't seem to have suffered based on our most recent outing. We ordered the salt and pepper pork, seafood hotpot, beef chow mein, king do spare rib, and beef and broccoli.Salt and pepper pork - crispy, salty, and juicy. Some places make this dish with really fatty or boney pieces of pork, but this latest order had the perfect meat to fat ratio and I really didn't find all that many bones in it. I love the jalapenos mixed in with the fried garlic, and this makes a perfect accompaniment to a bowl of white rice. Seafood hotpot - check out the photo here - this tupperware was packed full of goodies. This dish comes with tofu, squid, shrimp, and fishcakes, and there was no shortage of food here. The tofu beautifully soaks up the delicate white sauce and acts as a flavor bomb - when you bite into it, the tofu explodes with juice. Love this dish!Beef chow mein - growing up, this was my favorite Chinese dish and this version definitely met expectations. It was a bit strange for the takeout order to have the sauce already on the noodles as some places put them in separate containers, but the noodles were still nice and crispy when we got home, so there was no issue there. I love the mixture of crunchy fried noodles with slightly soggy ones that have soaked up the beef sauce, and the meat as usual was really nice and tender.King do spare rib - this is the counterpart to the salt and pepper pork, with a nice sweet and savory sauce over the same type of meat. Like the salt and pepper version, the meat to fat ratio was great and there were very little bones. Another great dish to have with rice!Beef and broccoli - we ordered this to have some extra topping with our fried noodles, and the container came packed full of food. There was a LOT of meat in this dish, which is just what we wanted. Like the chow mein topping, the beef was soft and tender, and the veggies were nice and crisp.All in all, the quality you get at Jade Garden is very high, and the amount of food is surprising. With a lot of restaurants cutting back on volume and hiking up prices, Jade Garden still gives you a good amount of food for the price. 4/5 - we've been coming here for ages and will continue to come back!

Dim sum place - it was alright, If you grew up eating this, I'm sure it's quite fine but a lot of it is too strongly Chinese flavored for me. The congee and chicken feet sounded quite interesting but let's just say it wasn't for meAnd I'm TaiwaneseCrispy tofu squares was good, I do recommend that one at least

Good place to goto with a group so you can eat family style and get a variety of food. All of the food comes out quick & piping hot. Great option for late night dining. Servers mostly speak Cantonese. Always ask what are the fresh/seasonal vegetables of the day.

I'll share something... my family is getting tired of me taking pictures of food LOL and the stares and looks I receive in restaurants when trying to capture a dish is (at times) downright hostile. All that to say I don't have any photos for my food :( We ordered the beef broccoli with shrimp fried rice... OMG!!!! SO DAYUM GOOD! then we got the orange chicken for the kids, meh not so much I'm not sure why the chicken in these sort of dishes are so dry and it's more batter than the actual meat. We went on Monday evening 7.8.24 - hold up let me be honest, we came down to Chinatown for a Boba and when I drove up we noticed how often people were coming out of this restaurant with take-out, so we decided to pick something up as well #wheninrome lol Anyhoo classic old school Chinese restaurant you walk in and see all of the fish tanks (that look like they've been there since I was a kid) with crabs, lobster etc. the tables are round and you see a LOT of clientele here who look like they could cook this authentic meal at home but choose to come out. Always a good sign. Our food came up quickly so don't go far if you order and need to run elsewhere. BTW the Chinatown in Boston isn't what it used to be (or what I remember as a child) but I am so glad this place has remained. If you are looking for a delicious place to go I would suggest here. Parking is across the street.Respectfully Reviewed.

For $7.95 lunch specials that provide a hearty portion of rice and chicken is pretty damn good. The place has been a staple for many affordable lunches for years now and will continue to be one of my go tos for cheap lunches. Service is quick, no chit chat waiter gives you two side lunch menu by default (ask for full menu if you're looking for entrees) day pot of tea, takes your order.Food. The sesame chicken was covered is sweet and slightly sour sauce. Came fresh fried but the chicken was dry so had to chew it for a bit. Few broccoli's that soaked the sauce in pretty well. Rice was cooked just right and had the mixed jasmine and regular long grain feel.Ambiance is typical of the ctown restaurants with well lighting, table cloth and workers using one table to prep veggies. Overall excellent affordable lunch place for $7.95. I suggest paying in cash as for such low price and it is ctown so owners generally appreciate not having card trx fees on top.

This place like peach farms is always consistent. The waiters usually recognize people who frequent.The food is always quick and consistent, and most importantly yummy Chinatown food. Authentic, fresh seafood. Tender beef's and moist chicken dishes.Always get abalone, fried whole flounder fillet, clam shell vermicelli, salt and pepper fried (squid fish pork chop shrimp etc) udon beef, pan fried noodles, seafood basket, steak, all the good eats quality!Spacious and accommodating to large parties.Food comes out quick. Always a staple.

Jade Garden is definitely a local favorite within the Boston Chinatown community. They use some of the freshest ingredients to prepare their dishes. Crispy fresh vegetables, Juicy chicken, te der beefs, perfectly marinated pork and of course, the freshest seafood as you will notice once you step into the restaurant, you will see huge tanks of fresh seafood from fish to shrimps and lobsters and crabs. They have a large menu and some of the featured dishes are twin lobster Cantonese style over a bed of noodles, pan seared prime rib with string beans, garlic chicken, sweet and sour pork chop, garlic peapod stems. I can go on and on with their menu but you should definitely go and experience it yourself. You be glad you did.

This place was serving authenticity. They had a huge selection of delicious meals of all price points. The restaurant is cozy and efficient. The service is giving aunties or uncles lowkey rushing you but with a homey feel. The food hit. So many great flavors and layers to the dishes

Jade garden is a quick walk from the Chinatown T stop on the orange line. We got the Shrimp In Szechuan Style, Stir Fried Pea Pod Stems, Yu Shiang Chicken and rice. I liked all the dishes but the Yu Shiang Chicken was my favorite. It was full of flavor and had a good sauce to chicken ratio. The service is quick and they are open late at night. Would definitely come back to try other dishes on their menu!
