    Beef and broccoli
    Nicole A.

    Saw this place on tiktok, looked at food pics and decided I had to come. Order beef and broccoli with fried rice and an order of crab rangoon and everything was fresh and yummy. The owner was super sweet. And the music, it was nice to have good singalong music playing.

    Beef and Broccoli

    If you're searching for the best traditional Chinese food in Denver, I highly recommend visiting Jade Cafe. This family-owned Chinese restaurant in Denver, CO (80227) truly delivers an exceptional dining experience from start to finish. From the moment you walk in, you're welcomed by an amazing and friendly team that creates a warm, inviting atmosphere. It's clear that customer service is a priority here, and that level of hospitality makes a big difference. Whether you're dining in or ordering takeout, the staff is attentive, efficient, and genuinely kind. I always order for takeout & it's great! One of the standout qualities of Jade Cafe is how fast and consistent the food service is, without ever sacrificing quality. The dishes come out hot, fresh, and full of flavor, making it an ideal spot for both a quick lunch or a relaxed dinner with family and friends. Now let's talk about the food, because this is where Jade Cafe really shines. The Sesame Chicken (available in white or dark meat) is a must-try! perfectly crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and coated in a rich, balanced sauce. The Orange Chicken is equally impressive, offering a bright citrus flavor with just the right amount of sweetness and a satisfying crunch. If you enjoy classic favorites, the Sweet & Sour Chicken is done exceptionally well crispy, flavorful, and paired with a vibrant sauce that hits that perfect sweet and tangy balance. The Beef and Broccoli is another staple done right, featuring tender slices of beef and fresh broccoli cooked in a savory, well-seasoned sauce that pairs perfectly with steamed rice. A visit here wouldn't be complete without ordering the Cheese Wontons, which are absolutely a must-order appetizer. They're golden, crispy, and filled with a creamy, flavorful center that keeps you coming back for more. Be sure to also try their egg rolls which complement the meal perfectly and add even more variety to the table. Many drinks to pick from as well, adds a nice refreshing touch along with the meals. What sets Jade Cafe apart is its ability to combine authentic flavors, fast service, and a welcoming family-owned atmosphere all in one place. It's no surprise this spot is becoming a go-to for locals looking for good-quality Chinese food in Denver. If you're in the Denver, CO 80227 area and craving delicious, reliable Chinese cuisine, Jade Cafe should absolutely be on your list. This is the kind of place you'll find yourself returning to again and again. Highly recommended for anyone looking for authentic Chinese food, fast service, and a friendly dining experience in Denver!

This is my family & I 2nd time here in Denver and after finding this place the 1st visit we make it a point to come to this location. We're located in Georgia so I think we have a good sense of good Chinese. I always get the Mongolian beef with fried rice (no egg; I'm allergic) My husband always gets the General Tso chicken with the fried rice and he ALWAYS orders this and never has a complaint. My son gets the Sesames chicken also with fried rice and it's sweet and crunchy as they fry the chicken to mix in their sauce and it's worth every penny. Every time! Service sometimes can be short in communication but expected especially when they're working all day and don't have time to eat but their food never misses! It's never crowded or busy when we come no matter the time of day, never noisy always sit at a booth. I highly recommend this place I will always come here when visiting Denv

I am so glad that they are so consistent and have not changed recipes or adjusted seasonings. Ordered our two favorites - pickled pepper beef and mapo tofu. Then the string beans and a new dish - sauerkraut fish filet. The sauerkraut fish filet reminded me of the Vietnamese catfish soup but no sweetness added. Very good dish and will def order again. Also love that they have quality rice here.

    Decided to come here because I was craving Chinese food and heard good things about this place…read more Figured I'd give it a try. We ordered the fried tofu (with peppers and onions), orange chicken, fried fish fillet, and veggie delight (mixed veggies). The fried fish fillet was definitely the standout. Perfectly crispy on the outside with a light, tangy layer of sauce that added flavor without making it soggy. Easily my favorite dish of the meal. The fried tofu was also really solid and flavorful with just the right amount of spice. The peppers and onions complemented it well without overpowering the tofu itself. The orange chicken was okay. I tend to compare orange chicken to Panda Express (probably unfair, but it's my benchmark), and this one didn't quite hit that same balance of crispiness and sauce. I think if it had a bit more meat within each piece, would be better. The mixed vegetables were decent but not something I'd order again. They felt a bit drenched in sauce and didn't have much depth in flavor. One of the highlights of the visit was meeting an elderly woman who helps out when it gets busy. She mentioned she was the former owner. She was incredibly kind, and we ended up having a really nice conversation in Mandarin. That personal touch made the experience even more memorable. Otherwise, really nice venue with lots of space and tables. Waiters always refilled my water, which is a good plus. Also gave me fresh rice when I took the leftovers to go. Overall, a solid meal with a couple standout dishes. I'd definitely come back for the fried fish fillet and tofu. Will be back to try their other dishes.

Service was quick to take the order, refill water and clear out empty plates/steamer baskest. The dishes coming out of the kitchen was at a more erratic pace, but it's all about the food. Mapo tofu was good, with a light slick of chili oil. The flavors were spot on with little chunks of fermented salted broad beans. The heat was also moderate, but it did have a kick as you were eating it. That signature mala numbing spiciness started building, but not hot enough for my palate. Green beans were also nice and tender. Sometimes when they come out the fryer, the skin can be a little leathery, but wasn't present here. BBQ Buns were very soft and tender, loaded with BBQ pork. The shao mai had a nice bouncy texture and cooked well. Shrimp Lo Mein had the flavors of the Chinese American classic, it looks like the noodles were hand made too. Only miss was the shrimp dumplings. They were too close to each other and they stuck together. The wrapper was also overcooked, but somehow the shrimp was not. Nearly impossible to pickup with chopsticks, because the wrapped just fell apart, even with a delicate touch. Worth a stop and probably tastiest Chinese food in the neighborhood. It was getting crowded and there was a wait by the time we left. However it was Denver restaurant week, so not sure how it usually is during the week.

Lately it feels like a lot of restaurants are charging more while giving less, and it's getting harder to find places that actually care about the customer experience. Unfortunately, this was another one of those experiences. We ordered three side dishes and three drinks, and the bill came out to around $100. Two of the three sides were served cold, the dumplings at least came out hot, but they were pretty mediocre and nothing I'd order again and drinks were extremely over priced. The waitress was fine, no real issues there, but it did feel like the food may have been sitting in the kitchen too long before it hit the table even though the place was empty. At the end of the day, it's hard to justify paying that kind of money for cold, underwhelming food, then feeling awkward about the tip because the experience just wasn't good. I won't be back. If I had known this is what the experience was I would have definitely gone somewhere else. As an added bonus I felt like crap afterwords, I think it was because of poor quality ingredients. My aim in writing these reviews is to highlight the restaurants and businesses that truly take care of their customers, to give people a heads up about the ones that clearly do not prioritize quality or the customer experience, and to express myself in a world where it often feels like there is very little room to speak honestly about paying top dollar for mediocre experiences. Very disappointing.
