Jade Dumpling & Noodle House - Chinese Near Me - Salem, Oregon

Best Chinese food place in Salem! Went today for lunch. Clean restaurant, plenty of seating and fast service. Ordered General Tso's chicken, chicken dumplings, green tea. Best General Tso's I've tasted in a few years. Chicken dumplings were equal to Din Thai Fung in Beaverton. Really enjoyed the meal. I've been searching for good Chinese. I found it! read more

Overall, I would give this a solid 3/5 stars It's definitely a nice edition to the downtown Salem area however, by none of the items ordered today was I blown away, so to speak, nor intrigued to return to and try again. We ordered the: green beans w/ garlic, pork xioa long bao, spicy pork wontons, and the sweet and sour cucumbers. All were good but not great. The service was excellent, so many people visited our table during our visit and our water was never left empty! The atmosphere is open, well designed, and modern with the imbedded bits of cultural decor. It's worth a try if you're interested and have been curious about what they have to offer! Our tastebuds can be different, so I'll leave you with that! It's friendly, welcoming, and super cute. read more

Jade Dumpling & Noodle House is definitely the place you want to visit for authentic Chinese cuisine. My wife and I tried this place while we were in town for the weekend. Just thinking about it makes me want to make the three-hour drive to eat there again. When you walk in, there's a lady there ready to knead the dough for all the fresh noodle and dumpling dishes. I mean, come on! How often do you see that??? The restaurant wasn't super busy so the food came out fast. My wife and I shared the Dan Dan Noodles to start. We were supposed to share the Xiao Long Bao but I'm pretty sure I ate most of it. We also managed to order a fried noodle dish although I knew I was gonna take most of it to go. It was so good, I kept eating it. The only thing I wasn't crazy about was the shumai but everything else made up for it. I need everyone to visit this location and the Salem location often so I know it'll be around when I'm back in town. Cheers! read more

We were pretty disappointed with our experience here. The portions were much smaller than what you typically get at most Chinese restaurants, especially considering the price. We ordered the steamed chicken bao, and they were mostly dough with very little chicken inside. They also had corn in the filling, which wasn't mentioned on the menu. I'm not sure if that's traditional, but it wasn't what we expected. The orange chicken tasted okay, but it didn't come with any rice. We had to order a separate vegetable fried rice, which was also a much smaller portion than we're used to at most Chinese restaurants. The spicy and sour beef noodle soup had tender beef and a flavorful broth, but overall the meal didn't feel like a good value. Between the small portions, having to pay extra for rice, and the underfilled bao, we left disappointed. The server disappeared for a while and the first thing he brought out was the fried rice alone. The place was nice and you have to go to the outdoor area for the bathroom. Unfortunately, this wasn't our favorite Chinese restaurant and we probably won't be back. read more

Stopped in at Jade Dumpling while visiting Salem. I walked in to a small restaurant with lots of people. I felt like I was in a crowded box. Not once in 10 minutes did anyone greet me or ask me if I needed help. The service was poor. I finally stopped someone and asked where I could pick my order up at. He told me to go to the kitchen area. An older man spoke in another language to another guy and then the other guy asked me what I needed. I said I had a pickup order. It was pretty much ready on time. I walked back to the hotel and started with the Kung Pao Tofu. I've never had it before. I didn't know what to expect, but it was absolutely delicious!! Flavorful, a little spice....I can't say enough good things. I also ordered the Meat Lover's Fried Rice. It's okay. Much less flavorful than the Kung Pao Tofu. I'd definitely go back for the Kung Pao Tofu, if only their service was better and friendlier. read more

My first time coming here and I was admittedly a little nervous I've heard good things about this place so I decided to give it a try and boy was it worth it!! I went with the Chinese Broccoli with Beef and after stumbling with my order also got a Scallion Pancake. The food arrived faster than I expected and it was very hot! The broccoli was cooked al dente and the beef was so soft it fell apart in my mouth! The scallion pancake was also delicious, thin crispy and pulled apart easily. If you're in the area looking for a hearty meal this place is definitely it. The portions match the price point, the food is fresh, and the service is immaculate. 1000/10, I would recommend coming here with a large party because for one person this was definitely more than what I expected! read more

The food was awesome! I'm so excited to get some authentic chinese sichuan food in Salem! They have fresh hand-made dumplings and my kids had a nice time watching them through the window while we waited for our food. Everything is so good, but my favorite dishes are the more traditional dishes like zhajiang noodle and pickled vegetable fish. Place is clean and nicely decorated. There's always a wait to get seated, but once u do, service was quick. It was worth the wait read more

Jade Dumpling & Noodle House - Red bean bao (bun) - Chinese Near Me - Salem, Oregon

Sorry no pixs. We had an awesome birthday lunch here. Service was a little spotty but place was super busy. We had: 1 dry brased green beans - 5+/5. Perfectly cooked with plenty of garlic 2 pork steamed broccoli- 3.5/5. Tasty but if you expertly char sui bad this is not that. Filling is closer to a pork meat ball and the dough was chewy not.the pillowy dough. Tasty tho 3 pork soup dumpling - 5/5. Yummy without of 'soup' 4 chicken dumplings - 5/5 tender and tasty 5 onion cake - 5/5 plenty of scallions and super flakes 6 sui mai - 4/5 Tasty and all shrimp 7 sesame balls. 5/5. Yummy deserts bite perfectly fried and the red bean paste the right amount of sweet. While you are there (especially if you have to wait.to be seated) walk to inside of building and watch them making the wrappers and stuffing the dumplings. They are fast and skilled. read more

Looking for food while on vacation and after a hike and the food in the area seemed to look similar as the basics American food so I was happy to find this dumpling spot ! It seems to be like a food court type of building as there was lots of other food businesses right next to it . Found parking right in the front , we got in and checked ourselves on their iPad , there was already people waiting and restaurants was busy.. I'm about 15 minutes out table was ready . We ordered beef fried noodles , beef dumplings and drinks ... honestly that was enough food and it was SOO GOOD ! We actually came back here a second time ! Love dumplings so I'm always happy to find a good dumpling spot when traveling :) read more

The spare ribs was actually good, sesame balls was great and shumai was very good too. Want my favorite but wasnt bad. Hard to find really good dim sum and im on the hunt. I gave it 4 star for the fact that their staff was amazing and the place is very clean and beautiful. read more

Fitting for it being in the name, the dumplings here are some of the best we've ever had. Specifically, the pork wontons in spicy sauce were so flavor packed, that even with their very generous portions, we were left wanting more. The Sichuan Steam Buns had an excellent texture, but tasted more of beef than pork which we found interesting. To complete our order we got a classic, General Tso's Chicken, and to no surprise it tasted like any General Tso's we've had in the past, nothing mind blowing, but tasty all the same. Overall we would love to try more items from their menu, but would likely come back to eat in person vs getting takeout as the presentation of the food we saw on peoples tables looked immaculate. read more

heard about this place online and wanted to check it out! we arrived at about 6:00 PM on a Friday night, and had to wait about 20 minutes for a table. Wasn't too long of a wait at all given the size of the restaurant and the looks of how busy it was! our waiter took a minute to come take our order, but after that our food arrived one at a time quickly. this is when the overall service took a turn for the worst. we never got a refill on our drinks as once no one came by after our food was brought out to us. Additionally, we ordered two dishes that had broth and no spoons aside from the serving ladles were provided. Unfortunately we were seated in the corner of the restaurant by the front window so it was rare that staff walked by so we couldn't really get their attention. After we finished eating, we waited about 20 minutes until someone came over to get some boxes for our leftovers, and then another 10 minutes to get our check. Then it was taking so long to get them to collect our payment we eventually walked it up to the counter to pay. I understand this restaurant was busy that night, but we never were checked on once and were finished eating for 30 minutes until we were finally able to pay and leave. As for the food, we really enjoyed the chicken fried noodles, shrimp wontons in chicken broth, and the mongolian beef. Our boiled fish in spicy sauce dish was much different than expected based on the description provided in the menu, and we were not a fan of this dish. Everything else was good though. Ultimately I don't think we'll be coming back based on our service experience. read more

Newly opened & highly anticipated dim sum options. Salem has been lacking on an option like this. The location is very busy since it's new. The staff are so kind, welcoming and fast. The menu has many tasty offerings. We tried a few things and were very pleased. The restaurant is a smaller space but the seating is oriented in a way where diners can have their own individual experiences. Very cool decor includes some amazing masks. Definitely will return! read more

Love love love this place. Within 1 month we've had 4 times and will be going back again soon! We take everyone who comes to visit us here. You may have to wait to sit but the food comes quick! Orange chicken white rice soup dumplings and xiao buns and noodles are just amazing. We used to go to chens on Lancaster but this 100% tops it! read more

Amazing service, over the top food ! Very nice and clean . Great authentic well prepared dishes .

Great food and atmosphere customer service was on point. The flavors stood out. Definitely good experience.

I ordered takeout: garlic green beans, shrimp fried rice, veggie dumplings, spicy cucumber salad and sesame balls. Total $68. 20 minutes from order to ready. Portions were good. Spices were very heavy. Overall, just "okay." No standouts, nothing to get excited about, kind of typical mediocre Chinese food. I doubt I would go back, not just because the food was mediocre but because you gotta pay for parking ($1.50 minimum 1 hour, even if you are only there for 20 min) and this sucks, but also the "Beep Beep Salem" app never works for me. It's all too much of a hassle for a $69.50 mediocre take out meal. read more

The food was excellent and fresh! The decor is soothing and clean; it got crowded at lunch time. We ordered curry Shanghai vermicelli noodles with a slight spiciness; green beans so yummy; fried pork dumplings gyoza; fried pork baos; steamed shrimp dumplings...then you go next door Banzai for matcha latte or Dreamies for ice cream! read more

Flavors here are amazing and portions are large so I'd share! I'm obsessed with the spicy wontons, xiao long bao, and fried rice! read more

I've been so excited for this place to open and it did not disappoint! I've gone back 4 times since trying it, getting different items every time and I've been satisfied every time. Their dumplings are delicious, the noodles are exceptionally good and the portions are great. For two people we usually get 2-3 dishes and it's plenty but they make great leftovers so I wouldn't hesitate to over order and plan to take some home. The restaurant is decorated very nicely and they have a good amount of seating. There are two entrances, one inside the forge and one by the street read more

The food was great I like how they bring it out in sections quickly it's super busy my favorite was the beef dumplings or the Dan Dan noodles read more

Everything was great! Served fairly quickly, dandan was priced well and it had a lot of sauce which is nice! I always have super dry no sauce dandan in Oregon so I was pleasantly surprised. The pork spare ribs were not so meaty but it wasn't dry so that was nice! Beef and broccoli taste like beef and broccoli. Meat was soft. All in all it's a nice place to eat and the restaurant is new and clean read more

The reviews for this place are very good. We met friends there for lunch to see for ourselves. Soup does not come with your order, so my husband ordered the egg flower soup, I ordered the hot and sour. It was $5 extra for each. My husband said his soup was very oily, probably sesame oil. My hot and sour soup was not spectacular, certainly not in the top 5 in my experience. We ordered the Dan Dan noodles, Housemade dumplings and the shrimp walnut dish with broccoli. There was more than enough food for both of us and we took home a lot of each. I had not had the Dan Dan noodles before, it was basically spaghetti noodles with well cooked hamburger and Asian seasonings. Not bad. The dumplings had no dipping sauce, we made our own from the vinegar and soy sauce provided at the table. There were 10 dumplings, we brought home more than half. While the shrimp and walnut dish was good, the broccoli fresh and perfectly steamed, I've had better. The sauce that goes on them was served on the side. I'm guessing because that way when you take it home, it doesn't make everything mushy when reheating. The service was excellent, the food came quickly and was hot. Probably the most expensive Asian lunch we've ever had, $55 not including tip. Instead of paying for street parking, we parked in the Parkade behind the building. Did not appreciate the smoky pot filled elevator that greeted us when the delinquents stepped out. But that has nothing to do with Jade Dumpling. Though the food was good, there was nothing there I craved bad enough to warrant another go. I hope they do well, downtown Salem is a hard sell these days with Oregons economy and downtown homelessness. read more

Nothing bad, just very underwhelming. Wonderful location with average service. Expectations of high quality food and flavors were not met.

This place is incredible ! They have good prices and it is a lot of yummy food ! You will not be disappointed !

So yummy food came out fast good service was on a bit of a time crunch and they didn't have enough workers so it took a little bit for me to get boxes and get checked out but other than that great ! read more

All of the staff at this restaurant are incredibly hardworking! They're constantly checking to make sure every customer's needs are met. The food is served quickly, and it's always fresh and delicious. I'm so happy we finally have a restaurant here in Salem that's comparable to Din Tai Fung! Even better, the food here is much more affordable. We'll definitely be coming back! read more

The food is sooooooo good. The staff was great. We went on a busy Saturday evening and it was not bad waiting for a table.

As others have mentioned, the service needs some work. We went in on a weekday shortly after they opened when they weren't very busy. It took awhile for someone to take our order. Our food came out fresh and quickly, but then no one checked in on us after that and we had to flag someone to get our check. I hope they see these reviews and find their groove in service in time. We'll likely go back as the spicy wontons were really delicious. read more

We have been to Jade Dumpling restaurant 3 times since they opened in Salem, Oregon, and the food is absolutely delicious and great quality! The restaurant is clean, and the staff is always friendly and welcoming. We have been waiting for a Chinese restaurant like this in Salem, Oregon, for a very long time. Highly recommend! read more

Finally some good Chinese food in Salem. Highly recommend the toothpick lamb, shengjian bao, and any of the dry pots. You can even watch them make the dumplings fresh from a window, just like at DTF. The food is served family style (so if you're each getting an "entree" for yourself don't be shocked if the food doesn't get all served at once). Definitely of the school of service where they don't hover over your shoulder unless you flag them down, so be comfortable with waving the server down. read more

The service was great and the food was awesome. I had my meal medium spicy and it was perfect. Nice clean restaurant, very cheerful.

The food was absolutely incredible!! Authentic bao, super flavorful fried noodles, and the sweet and sour chicken was amazing, they even asked if we wanted a side of steamed rice on the side! The service was great as well, everyone was so nice! Definitely recommend! read more

Fantastic food. Dumplings are great, fried rice is awesome, storm fish is crispy, spicy, and tasty.

My girl friend and I went there for the first time, we were very satisfied. Finally we found real Chinese food in Salem. We waited for 15 minutes to be seated for Saturday lunch, food was served quickly, we took the leftover home. Definitely recommend this restaurant if you are into authentic Chinese food. read more

This is a new restaurant in town and I'm really glad it opened. The food is one of the best and authentic Chinese food I've had in the States. All food is fresh and handmade at this place. This is actually my third visit here and wanted to review long ago, but I was just able to do so they've made it on yelp and google map. I can feel that the service and food are getting better this time comparing to the last two visits. The dining area is immersed with Chinese decor and the ambiance is exceptional. There's also lots of parking right next to the store. It's definitely the best place for Chinese food if you live or are passing by Salem! read more

I haven't tried all the dishes so I'll reserve my full judgement. However, for the Salem area, not bad. The problem is the culinary choices in Asian. Hawaiian or even Japanese restaurants are very, very limited. Coming from Hawaii, the majority of the so called "Hawaiian or Chinese restaurants in Salem would shut down in 6 months for lack of business. In Salem, no one knows what great is because there aren't good or great restaurants. I former Salem restauranter once mentioned that Salem is a coupon town and anyone good enough in the kitchen wouldn't even consider opening a restaurant here. Enough of that. So, in my, opinion if you're looking for good dim sum......travel to H K Cafe on Portland, off of 82nd. All the entrees and the dim sum are fantastic. read more
