Jade Garden

Small selection, but they have enough options for everyone. The noodles and pepper steak were okay, didn't taste very fresh, but everything else was great. I really like the green beans, I recommend them with dumplings. Dessert section is very limited, only puddings, sugar cookie. Banana pudding was pretty good.Service was great, the waiter was very attentive, and refilled drinks often.Ambiance is okay, it has old, authentic Chinese decor, but nothing special. Restaurant is very clean, including bathrooms. Dining room is very quiet, with dim lighting.Overall great food, good service, and great value. At the time of this review, the price is $13.50 pp, for all you can eat, which is a good value compared to other buffets.

7/24/2020 update - Open and back in business. Usual nice service and great value. FOOD COURT INSIDE Jefferson MallExcellent flavor. It offers an all you can eat ONE TRIP option that is very good value. Dishes have different flavors. It's all chicken rice vegetables and noodles, but all very good and flavorful. Nice service from the ladies as well. This is in the food court of Jefferson mall. Easy parking to food court in the mall.

As typical in any mall food court in America you come across a choice of 2 different Oriental inspired restaurants offering you a free sample on toothpick to try and rope you in. My decision simply came in to that I was looking for some variety and they were currently offering the plating buffet style.After actually getting into the Buffet though, I wished I had paid a little closer attention to the overall selection of the buffet. It was not the most wide variety of flavors or options. Alot of the choices that were up on the buffet looked like they had been there for awhile and were dry or overcooked. There were several options listed that had not yet been refilled, and the staff stated they were not making any more for the day... Now this was 3 hours before the mall closed, so seemed a bit early to be shutting down options. I get to the check out and order a drink and pay for my food. As I am trying to make my choice the first 2 items I try are both out, so I ask the worker and he just looks clueless, before the worker at the other side of the buffet line says that the machine is broken, and they aren't selling drinks. This is after I had already paid for the drink! Not the best choice in this particular mall if you are looking for Oriental.

If I could give them a huge ZERO I would. Do not eat at this restaurant. If you do make sure you pay with cash. I paid for a $7 meal yesterday and they ran my car for over $40. Do not trust them with your card

The food is so good, I go there a lot, their service is wonderful they are always so polite. It is a buffet so you only pay for which size it is.
