Lumpia
Katie V.

I will come back to this wonderful place anytime I am in downtown Norfolk. I love their food, I've never had a bad dish. The sesame pancakes are my absolute favorite to order, I always get an extra cup of sauce because it's so tasty. The fried dumplings are perfectly done and not too oily. The lumpia is also delicious and again while deep fried is not super oily. My mother favors their green beans which are crisp and always super fresh. I generally swap between the beef and broccoli and the chicken with Chinese veggies. Both pack so much flavor and always have perfectly cooked veggies that still have a bit of bite to them. And of course finish off your meal with the sugar coated fried donuts and a fortune cookie. You won't be disappointed, come check out one of the places Norfolk's finest even stop off to eat. That's when you know the food is tops!

Very good Chinese food. The Szechuan chicken is really good. Their fried wontons are super light and crispy. Prices are good. Servings are good sized.

Obviously not fried chicken wings. Looks like only skin friend wings.

I asked for friend chicken wings (every single Chinese spot I've been to has them). They gave me marinated wings. He did not tell me on the phone and tricked me into getting them. Then told me I asked for marinated fried wings which I absolutely didn't ask for! I asked for a refund and he wanted me to come the same day which I didn't have time for since there was only 1hr before they closed. Do not go here!!! 0/10

doesnt look like fried chicken wings to me

Terrible food. Terrible service. Why do these wings look like this? Yeah if you are from the northern area...beware. You will be extremely disappointed.

By far some of the best carry out in Norfolk, and as far as Hampton Roads in my opinion. Golden Fortune prides themselves on offering the healthiest Chinese food in the area, and I definitely agree. I've been coming here for years, especially during my college years. The food is always cooked hot, and fresh to order. I like how the food is never overly greasy, as can definitely be the case at some Chinese food establishments. The inside is a very meek dining room, that is constantly well-maintained. The owners have an open view to the kitchen, which any customer can directly see how clean it is always kept as well. Friendly, fast service will always meet you here. I'm a huge fan of their general tso's chicken. Definitely some of my favorite. I get it literally every time I come. And having traveled across the country and tried several different restaurant's, I can definitely say there's ranks high. Definitely give them a try if you're in the Norfolk area.

So the prices felt right but the food is not good at all. I felt like I was fed rat for $10. This is walking distance from my place of employment but I don't plan to ever return. The chicken didn't look like chicken at all. Buyer beware! The lumpia did not meet expectations at all and the egg rolls weren't an option on the pork. Some people don't eat port at all so that's highly disappointing and i couldn't even finish more than one bite.

The same chicken used in the fried rice is what's used in the chicken with broccoli.This food is disgusting. American white rice

That was reassuring, busy is usual a good sign that the food is good. The location is great, close to the beach. The food was nicely packaged in sturdy containers and not styrofoam! We ordered orange chicken and broccoli beef. Both were tasty and fresh! Highly recommend this place if you're in the area.

It is one of those things where one place might have great fried rice, one has great egg rolls, and another has great lo mein. Overall the food was good as I went with the General Tsos combo that comes with regular fried rice but for a small upcharge if you want to change the rice to pork or shrimp. To me it is still unusual as I thought ham fried rice was just a normal thing that comes with a dinner combo along with an egg roll. Not anymore. I ordered an eggroll (2 per order) to go with the meal along with a teriyaki stick. The teriyaki stick (you get 2 per order) was pretty good and not dried out to the point where it could pass for jerky. The chicken in the dinner was good and not overly breaded. It was supposedly spicy but trust me anyone could handle this spice. Good spot to quench your hankering for some American Chinese food. Parking can be a bit iffy with a few spaces in the front on the street shared with other restaurants but the same holds true for the spaces behind the building.

Sophia and I headed here for lunch last weekend. I came across this place years ago on Yelp but…read morenever had the time to try them out. They did close for a bit during the pandemic due to a staff shortage, but opened back up and haven't lost a beat. Local Yelpers have posted positive reviews on the food and service. Let's see how the visit went. We were immediately seated when we walked inside. They actually had a nice crowd inside which definitely had them busy. Since it's a dim sum restaurant, they came around several times offering small dishes. We declined until the very end and decided to order from their regular menu. My order was a cup of Egg Drop soup for appetizers and salted and spicy scallop, shrimp and squid. Everything was truly delicious. The soup was very hearty and full of flavor as expected. The seafood was fried perfectly and full of spices. The portion could've been a little more but nonetheless it was really good. To end our meal, we chose their shrimp balls off the dim sum plate. It was really good and flavorful. For our first time here, we were both impressed. Wonderful staff and food to back up the hype. The next time we stop by, it'll purely be items via dim sum :)

Overall I had a good first time experience at Jade Villa. I would def recommend going with an…read moreexperienced group so you can 1. Eat as much as you want 2. Have an understanding of what's what if you're doing the dim sum since they didn't give you a menu that describes everything. Veryyy busy on the weekends and I don't think they take reservations. There was a line when we arrived on a Sunday afternoon before they even opened! Says a lot. My favorites were the spare ribs, beef stew, a type of taro dish, and the Chinese broccoli. I do wish they had more veggie dishes on the dim sum carts. You fill up fast so choose wisely! Next time would love to either try the lobster, steamed flounder, or roast duck.
