This buffet is a favorite for salt and pepper shrimp as well as their curry chicken! Both are delicious and I visit from over an hour away 3-4 times a year when craving. Service is always pleasant and they keep the buffet adequately replenished. I also like their curry chicken traditionally Asian restaurant setting in this former Shoneys. Great parking situation! read more

This was the best Chinese buffet I've ever been to! Everything, including salad bar was super fresh

I think 3&3/4 stars is fair. I liked the food. The hot and sour soup was very spicy. The green beans were delicious! I loved the choices on the buffet including the salad. The ice cream tasted like ice but my husband liked it My favorite.. the egg foo yong. Very light and not greasy. read more

This is a mediocre Chinese buffet. I gave it two tries once for lunch and once for dinner. For both of my visits the service was non-existent and after being seated I never saw any staff again. So good luck getting a drink refill or any other kind of service! On both visits I ordered an unsweet tea but was served a sweet tea and then never saw any staff to fix that. The other Chinese buffets in the area are just better as they actually refill your drink or fix a wrong drink. So I am two and done with this place as I really was hoping that things would improve and unfortunately they are all too consistently bad in the service department and the food at the other Chinese buffets is also better than what you get here. Too add insult to injury they ask if you want to add a tip when you pay. So overall there's really no reason for me to come back to this joint read more

Sweet n sour pork dish was room temp (only abt 20 min. Delivery) soggy, greasy, no flavor. and most of all..it did NOT even look or taste like pork!!! Yuck, never again, as I've questions safety concerns. I've eaten at over 15 different Chinese restaurants and never have i experience a dish so horrible and totally different. read more

Jade Garden - Crab Rangoon - Chinese Near Me - Foley, Alabama

This place was pretty horrible. There was tons of options but all the food tasted pretty horrible. Typically I love a good Chinese buffet but this place was a disappointment. Definitely won't come back. Service was good though. read more

4 star review. Things that were good: salt and pepper shrimp, green beans, crab ragoon, corn fritters, dumplings, and chicken teriyaki skewers. Service was good as she asked constantly how food was and refilled waters. These need improvement: fried rice, egg rolls, soft serve ice cream vanilla was tasteless and chocolate grainy. My last night in Gulf Shores. Sad face, time to go home tomorrow. read more

Not what I expected. Buffet wasn't very big. There was a variety of different food but was lacking on taste. Very disappointed in the food. Also the dinner price is $13.99 now instead of what I read before of $10. read more

Very good food and great service. Everything was hot and fresh. Our waitress was very friendly read more

We've been ordering there for tears. Always friendly, fast, fresh, and plentiful on their to go orders.

This place is very good, the price you can't beat and the quality of the food was good. It is a buffet but the service was also very good, very attentive. I will be back when in the area. read more

Ate here yesterday food was honestly pretty good and service was great. Really nice and genuine people working. Really nice and chill vibes all around I also went when it was slow and only 2 other tables were there. read more

Food was ok, we may have caught them at a bad time. It seemed like everything was low in stock and dried out. We've heard such good things about them we will give them another shot maybe at a more prime hour. The employees are super friendly and inviting read more

With the best selection of Chinese food on the island. Jade Gardens bound to satisfy offering their own Asian inspired flavour to each dish. In addition to the buffet, be sure to try out their varieties of handmade sushi. Friendly service delivered in a clean, spacious atmosphere makes every visit special, making them an island favourite amongst buffets in the area.   Prices are $7.50 lunch & $9.95 Dinner. For copious amounts of food, this is quite a steal & I take full advantage of it sampling all of my classic favourites like General Tso's chicken egg drop soup & black pepper beef with fried rice in abundance. Their service is ok, but I wouldn't rank it terribly high as the server took a bit of time getting us our drinks when we needed them refilled, but she was friendly, so I'll overlook that. The interior & themed decor is fairly appealing, giving to the Asian theme. I always enjoy the fountains at the entrance & Jade Garden is no exception.      General Tso's is very savoury & flavorful compared to what I've had in the past, but a few pieces weren't as juicy as I hoped. The white rice tended to be a bit on the dry side (like most places), so I tended to go with a bit more flavour & did the fried rice & I was quite satisfied. Their sushi station can be a hit or miss as a few of the rolls might not have been packed tight enough & fall apart. For the price & endless copious amounts of food, I'm looking forward to this gorge fest on a major scale. I mentioned earlier that my server was friendly yet rude on this recent visit. Still, I'll give them another chance when I visit again as this place is memorable to me for the many meals I enjoyed here with family. Therefore Jade Garden earns a generous 4 star in my book.  Be sure to like on FB & tell a friend. https://www.facebook.com/JadeGardenChineseRestaurant/ read more

Lunch buffet on Saturday was not crowded. Was immediately seated. Food on buffet was warm and fresh.

Clean, good food, good service. Love coming here to grab lunch or Togo dinner when we're in town.

Nice little chinese restaurant the food wasn't amazing but it wasn't terrible either. The vegetables were very fresh but the rolls lacked flavor. The egg drop soup was crunchy at the bottom of the bowl and the chicken was fatty. The server reached over me several times which made me uncomfortable. Other than these things it's pretty average. read more

post-Sally Covid update June 2021. For my full review please read previous, so the only damage I'm aware of was their sign and lettering on the exterior. It was unfortunate that it took over a year and half to get their signage back up but it's finally there. The restaurant is in a very congested area and set back off the road across from Tanger outlet and you could easily blow right past it. I'm happy to report that they appear to be fully staffed and the food remains as it was before the double whammy interrupt if Sally & Covid. Bottom line: It's the best buffet around and I continue to consider it a treat to stop in whenever cooking is off the table. (see what I did there :-) read more

Ordered delivery three times in as many months, normally happy with the orders. For some reason they replaced Lo Mein noodles with spaghetti noodles. Different flavor. Pork fried rice was surprisingly dry. The Orange Beef and Hot and Sour Soup were on point. Wife says not buying from them again. It's unfortunate why they had the hiccup. Need to be consistent to retain customers. read more

With respect to other Chinese restaurants, this place has probably the best Gen Tso's chicken I have ever had. Their portion sizes are big too, and I ordered through a delivery service and everything was still piping hot and fresh......probably wont be the last order while Im here for the next three days!! read more

Jade Garden - I couldnt even finish!! I wish I would have taken the before!!! Its Gen Tsos and Chicken Lo Mein. - Chinese Near Me - Foley, Alabama

Picked up family meal of shrimp with lobster sauce and fried rice. Fresh, appetizing and delicious

This restaurant is good but not the best. It's your typical chinese buffet with 3 rows of food, one with salad, fruits and sweets. The next one has fried food and veggies nothing out of the ordinary except for the corn nuggets I found. I didn't see the third row but it was probably crab and dumplings. The service was good we got sat almost immediately but where they sat us next to a dark area where there was a tv playing fox news. I saw trump on the tv and then something about the titanic. when the lady asked us for our drinks she forgot we ordered a sweet tea but it's fine since she realized her mistake and asked what we got again. when we got done she took our plates and she was nice. Me personally I didn't like the decore choices or the money tree they had at the front of the restaurant. They could really use a renovation but that's not too important in a restaurant. read more

I thought the food was outstanding,especially for the price. I would recommend it to anyone. Servers were great and very friendly. 5stars

This food was so good!! Most the time buffets aren't fresh and they are season less . Not this place! It had great flavor and tasted so good! By far the best Chinese buffet in the area! I definitely recommend!!! And the restaurant is clean! Do yourself a favor and give this place a try, you won't regret it! read more

Can't speak for the buffet but the takeout is always delicious. And our order is always correct.

Despite growing up in Foley, I didn't visit this spot much. I was craving Chinese recently so my boyfriend and I popped in, partially curious how they were operating due to Covid-19. They did only let you fill one to-go box, and they did have to fill it for you. But they try to make sure you get your moneys worth! Very nice and tried to throw in as much as they could! We loved it so much we went back for second helpings only three days later! read more

My wife and I are not the biggest Chinese food eaters, but we decided to change up some flavors before Thanksgiving and we got two buffet plates to go. We were greatly surprised how good the meals were. My wife said it was her favorite she had ever had and it appeared there was no MSG. I loaded up on proteins and the flavors were really good. Two plates for $18.00 was awesome. We will be back. read more

Worst food I ever had. General T chicken , old tough meat. Crab Rangoon s were inedible. Filled with mashed potatoes? Not cream cheese. A complete waste of money. It was delivery or I would have sent both dishes back. read more

While most reviewers really like Jade Garden, I found the selection sparse and rather bland. Don't get me wrong, it was good and hot. Service was very good, too. It's worth a try, some may like it and others may not. This is one of those places where you need to decide for yourself. read more

Pretty decent Chinese buffet if you want it to have a large variety of chicken, pork, and seafood all at a solid price. I go here each time I'm in Foley and it is yet to disappoint. Is there better options? Probably. Will I still eat here? Absolutely. P.S. I would get the Salt and Pepper Chicken :) read more

Best Chinese in Foley area. Not the best I have ever had though but it is definitely the best here in Foley. I have tried all the buffets

Great lunch spread. Dumplings highly recommended along with the hot and sour soup. Need to ask for white rice which comes quickly if like me you prefer white rice over fried rice. read more

Never come here unless you wanna get food poisoning. Food was absolutely disgusting. My son and I both got sick after eating here. Employees have crappy bad attitudes and the bathroom is nasty, soon as you walk in it smells like urine. read more

Food: Overall the food was fine, nothing super awesome but also tasted like every other Chinese buffet I've been to pretty much. I will say that the crab & cheese was good, the place I usually go to it comes REALLY greasy and this one was not. Meatballs were something I hadn't seen. They also have a big shrimp and crab leg area. I was disappointed by the sushi, but then I thought to myself, sushi is really Japanese, right? Then I started thinking someone needs to come up with a Japanese buffet...any takers? Also another downside - the cookies from the desert bar were stale because they were really soft. That was kind of a put off, but I hate wasting food... Atmosphere: Typical decorations, nothing fancy, Chinese-esque feel to the place. It seemed pretty clean, but it was lunch time so they hadn't really gotten busy enough for people to make messes. Price: Cheapest buffet I've seen in a long time! So their selection is a little more limited and I feel that is reflected in the price, so I was overall pretty happy about that. Service: The girl who waited my table was nice and she asked to refill my Coke a few times, so that was very nice of her. No complaints about the service. Overall: I think 3.5 stars is pretty spot on. The biggest draw was the price, less than 10$ with a drink! But food was a little lacking in a few areas. It was not the best Chinese buffet I have been to, but it definitely was not the worst. I would come back for a quick (and inexpensive) lunch. read more

food was poor, chicken had no flavor. Cashier walked away from cash register with my credit card. went to where she was standing which was next to her phone. I asked if she was planning on taking a picture of my credit card? Hopefully she didn't get the chance. Didn't get soup or egg roll that was listed on menu. Friends had buffet which was poor. limited items not re stocked. read more
