Jade Garden has been our new favorite asian cuisine location since we have moved to the area. Sandy is extremely personable and has been extremely kind to our family. The service is amazing on top of how much we enjoy going! The food is delicious and the price is right, we have branched out into trying Sandy's recommendations and they have never failed! The food and service will not disappoint!!!!!! We have tired other places in this area and it doesn't compare. Thank you!!!! read more

Amazing service and great food. Everyone is so nice, would definitely recommend. The lady who works the counter is very friendly and patient. read more

I had a wonderful meal delivered, shrimp and scallops were delicious! Fast delivery. Thanks you!

Food ordered thru ubereats and arrived on time within 45 min, still hot. Veggies were crisp and entrees were spicy as requested. Portions were on the smaller side and not packed fully to the brim like other Chinese takeout places. It was very very greasy with oil floating on the top so I had to drain most of the sauce. Veggie spring rolls also soaked with oil and no amount of paper towels helped. Most likely would not order again! Experience 6/10. Edible and made for a decent one-time meal. read more

First time back here after moving out of the area. It use to be pretty decent a dozen years ago. Right after opening the bag we thought we were missing items as there were mostly small containers. The portion sizes were disappointingly small, the beef lo mien came in the box usually used for the white rice side. It was also just greasy with no flavor, even the soy sauce didn't help. The sesame chicken was the best of the meal but was over cooked and tough. The pad Thai was not very good compared to any other I've had, strange vinegar smell, It just wasn't good. I guess the egg rolls were fine though but that bars pretty low. Things are expensive these days and it's frustrating to blow money on subpar disappointing meals. Should've just made anything at home, or went to Wawa across the street. read more

Jade Garden Restaurant - The ample beef lo mein... - Chinese Near Me - Reading, Pennsylvania

Caddy-corner from Wawa on Lancaster Avenue lies Jade Garden, a Chinese/Japanese restaurant that remains oft overlooked despite being located in the midst of one of Shillington's busiest intersections. This place is by no means fancy. The decor is horribly outdated, and the chairs and tables look straight out of a 70s diner. It's not quite down to the level of folding metal chairs, but it's close. There are booths, thank goodness, so try to grab one of those. Someone please explain to me how when you order soup to-go from Chinese restaurants, it comes in giant containers, but when you order soup for dine-in, it comes out in a tiny tea cup and costs the exact same? I think I'm going to start ordering a to-go order of soup when I sit down and just crack that baby open as soon as it comes out while I'm still waiting for my entree. The soup *is* good, though. Which is why I want more of it! The hot and sour soup is hearty and has nice heat to it. My Chinese comfort food is lo mein, and this place nails it. Large chunks of meat adorn an imposing pile of noodles dotted with green onion, water chestnuts, carrots, and bean sprouts. The balance of soy sauce, garlic, and onion flavor are always key. Many places seem to be just slightly off in this regard. But Jade Garden has the formula down pat. In addition to standard dining room seating, there's a sushi bar towards the back of the restaurant. Lunch can be hectic, as there is only one server on who's responsible for all front of house duties. They play some funky Chinese music here. There are some some classic Asian tunes with the string instruments and stuff, but then the next song could be some thumping modern Chinese pop song by the Asian Backstreet Boys. It's wild. read more

Another restaurant that is using the excuse of "COVID" to keep their doors closed and do takeout only. It's been over two years. Time to move on and get back to normal. read more

My boyfriend and I think this is the worst " Chinese" restaurant ever. Food doesn't even taste like it was made by real Asians I swear they have a homeless guy from Philly in the kitchen. Rice was blah, chicken very oily( even by Chinese food standards) and egg rolls gave my boyfriend wicked gas. Cheap prices I guess, one star. read more

I will not return to this place. My sashimi was still frozen when I picked up my delivery, after waiting 10 minutes past when they said it would be ready. I'm not opposed to it having been frozen, I'd prefer it weren't but this is lower-end sushi not fancy stuff. Even still, we also ordered a General Tso's dish that was not well cooked, had little flavor and the rice was over cooked. Sorely disappointed being one of only a few sushi places locally that isn't in the high dollar range. And this wasn't cheap either. It was adequately priced compared to other places I have been from Philadelphia to Reading but of the poorest quality. read more

Very good place for togo Chinese food! My girlfriend is Chinese and begs me to come all the time, we love supporting Chinese family businesses and definitely recommend anyone visiting! read more

Food was extremely greasy, room temp and way overpriced. They offer NO delivery and when you walk in to pick up your order you are greeted by someone behind a bullet proof window and it smells like something is decomposing in the back. A complete waste of time and money. You'd get better quality Chinese food at McDonald's. read more

Food was bland, overcooked and greasy. Had to stand in a little Covid waiting room (about 10'x10' with 4 other guys). Waited 5 minutes before I even saw someone to ask for my food. Better places nearby, don't go here read more

Food was decent, but the dine in service was terrible. We were a party of 5 at about 6:30 pm. Most Asian restaurants offer fried wontons with sauce as a sort of app, but not here. Plates came out one at a time, over about 5 minutes to serve all of us (a big no-no to me - shouldn't you serve the whole table at once?). I ordered fries with my dinner, then asked for ketchup - I received a soufflé cup with about a tablespoon and a half of ketchup in it! Seriously? And when my mom asked for duck sauce for her egg roll, they handed her a single packet! I'm not living in the area, but my sister who does says their delivery is stellar. As for the sushi bar, it looked sinister. I had the garlic broccoli, which was labelled "hot & spicy" (it was a little warm, perfect for me but my heat-loving hubby would have been disappointed). And I couldn't help feeling bad for the gigantic fish in the anything-but-adequate tank. read more

We order from here to be delivered to work all the time. The food is okay, but nothing I'd write home about. For delivery, though, it's good. The delivery time is VERY hit or miss, though, and I've seen them take 30 minutes, and I've seen them take 2 hours. read more

No frills plain Jane Chinese take out or dine in. I can't pin point what it is but this place was a once and done by me. Nothing special here. The food taste like it was cooked by Americans and not Asians....it lacked that special something chinese food always has. read more

My husband was hungry for sushi for a few months and we decided to splurge tonight and order some from Jade Garden. What a mistake!! For $55, we had the smallest amount and worst sushi we have ever eaten. It had no flavor, the rice crumbled every piece we picked up and and the wasabi was the weakest I ever tasted. We had seaweed salad, some ala carte sushi, a California roll & Salmon Lovers Roll. It all sucked! I can recommend the fortune cookies though! LoL read more

After waiting an hour and a half for my order, one of my items was not delivered. I had ordered General Tso's Shrimp, Hot and Sour Soup, a California Roll, and Crab Rangoons for dinner for my boyfriend and myself. The California Roll was not delivered. When I called to inform them, I was asked if the price could be credited to my next order, without ever being offered for the item to be delivered. Poor customer service! Aside from not receiving an item from my order, the shrimp in the General Tso's Shrimp tasted and smelled fishy, not like shrimp. The Crab Rangoons were also pasty, lukewarm, and seemed to have been frozen. Not a good experience! read more

I ordered a rock roll and the roll came with six pieces that were about and inch long. It wasn't bad but you would expect more food from a sushi roll not just six 1 inch long pieces. read more

Love this place! Best egg rolls in town. We order for delivery and they are always on time if not early. They are our go to place on a rainy night when you don't want to go out but you're looking for some comfort food. We highly recommend the sushi as well! read more

When we order for delivery they almost always have something missing, so we have stopped ordering. We tried going there to dine in and were very dissapointed. The servers who are young kids are not polite atall. The serve your food and drinks holding the top of the dish/cup where your mouth goes. Our server was on his cell phone the whole time and i didn't see him wash his hands one time. The Sushi is ok but not top quality. Food is very expensive and we have just decided not to go here anymore. read more

Good, not better, or best, just good. It could be a fold into the regular rotation. Time will tell. I'm still searching for a killer Asian food location in or around Shillington. The quest continues. Suggestions welcome. read more

The sushi really is nothing special (but that is expected with it being such a low price) and the good itself is not great. I've only ordered delivery from this place once and it took them over 2 hours to get my food to me. Everytime I called they assured me it was on it's way, and when it finally got to my home I did not get an apology or even a discount. The food really isn't worth it and that one experience really turned me off to them. read more

The chicken and food is very hot but that's it, and I mean temperature wise. No flavor, I travel across town to get better and cheaper. I enjoy Chinese that has good sauce and flavor. read more

I was a long time customer of Jade Garden. But, the past two experiences were terrible. Three friends I I ate there for sushi a few weeks ago. The service was terrible and took over an hour and a half. The second poor experience was with take out. I ordered food on a Friday night around 6:00. 7:00 rolls around still not here. I call and the kid of the owner answers and says delivery is on the way, I live 5 minutes away. The delivery guy didn't arrive for another additional hour. Food was so cold and my order wasn't correct. I called just to let them know of the issue, and they didn't seem to care. It seems they are very understaffed, and unable to fulfill orders. read more

Best you'll get in the area. I am a regular, and always get service with a smile. Food is excellent. You must try their Thailand Shrimp. Great for spice lovers. read more

Im not sure why they sell sushi, you could get better sushi from the supermarket. It has almost no taste and if it does have taste it tastes nothing like it should, and the rolls are extremely small. If you're in the mood for sushi, don't order it here get it somewhere better like Tokyo hibachi & bar. But besides the sushi, the food is pretty good and it's my go to place if I want take out. Just don't order the sushi. read more

I've had their food delivered twice, and have thoroughly enjoyed both meals. This rating and review is based on only the food, I've never been inside the restaurant. The mixed vegetables were delicious and plentiful, as was the side order of vegie fried rice. And the crab rangoons were the best I've ever devoured! Load with cream cheese and lots of meat - packed wth crab flavor - inside a crispy shell, Will definitely eat their food again whether it's take out/delivery or in the restaurant. read more

Sweet and Sour Chicken is the best you will ever have. Sandy the owner will always greet you with a smile and her husband and crew put out a ton of food. This place does tremendous volume and are appreciated for the fresh food and consistency. I have never tried the sushi... read more

Fast, friendly service, food average to above average, and probaly the best in town..

I wish I could give this place 0 stars. I wasted $25 on my meal and all I ate was the (quarter size) miso soup. I got the spicy cucumber salad and the chirashi (sashimi on a bed of sushi rice) when I got my takeout I immediately could tell it did not look right. The box itself was COVERED in fish oil, my hands smelled wretched just from touching it. Open up to see two pieces of "mackerel", which still had the hard, difficult to bite through skin. I almost threw up taking a bite of it, not only did it taste like old fish past its prime, it was incomprehensibly oily and tasted of a concentrated form of the sickening oil coating the container. I broke off a small sliver of the tuna in there and again, my stomach lurched. I have never tasted fish that foul and repugnant. I tried the sushi rice--which, literally tasted as if they took plain white rice and poured straight up rice vinegar on it. There's a process to make it correctly and they clearly didn't follow it. What about the cucumber salad, you may be wondering? I could stomach two bites before I tossed it. Old cucumber that has that taste--that gross, chewy, limp flavor, with a seasoning on it that was reminiscent to the way a sharpie smells (imagine it as a flavor--ew) needless to say, I threw everything away, because I can assure you if I ate that fish I would have been vomiting my brains out. read more

Ordered my food at 4:30 for delivery! It is now 6:15 and still haven't shown up! Called them twice to ask where our food is and she told me it was on the way. This is the LAST time I ever spend my money here. read more

Just had Sushi lunch. Not bad but not going to wow a sushi connoisseur. Service ok but no one else is here (Saturday 1pm) I liked that the portions were not huge or too much rice. Miso soup was very good as was tea. Typical Chinese Japanese dining area. read more

The sushi is always good. I tried most of the sushi on the menu and never was disappointed. Prices are good and the staff is very friendly. I always get take out, so I don't know how the service is. read more

Use to be the best on this side of town. Quality of food is not consistent and has gone down hill the last several time we've been there. We usually get Gen Tso's, egg roll and won ton soup....have had sushi there as well....was good every time. read more

Used to be pretty decent , but food has changed and not good at all . Owner is very cheap and won't even take their own coupons. I would not recommend. read more

If I could give no stars I would. The service was horrible ordered a Tia iced tea it took them ten minutes to come back and say they are out of milk. The food was not good and way over priced and I wouldn't even dare eat the sushi just didn't look fresh when it came out. read more

I was here yesterday and it wasn't too great. My boyfriend was really sick right after we ate there and I'm not feeling great today. The thing that grossed me out the most was seeing the cook go into the bathroom with his kitchen apron on. Big no-no! read more

Ordered take-out, it took over 2 hours, no phone call to say they were going to be late and no apologies for the terrible service. We won't be ordering here again. read more

I've been here plenty of times, and have purchased other services from them as well. It's sort of a diamond in the rough, as I don't see a lot of activity when I go here at any one given time. The dining area is super small, but the staff are quite friendly. The Chinese food is on par or better than places in the area like Asian Star (used to be Panda Heaven) for a much smaller price tag. I have had General Tso's, Dragon and Phoenix, sweet and sour soup, eggrolls, and egg foo young from here, all super quality stuff, very tasty. I even used this place to cater for my wedding. Everyone at the wedding reception thought it was unique, and the food was amazing. I was kinda sad that there was nothing left afterwords. lol I also purchased a big party platter of sushi from here for a party, and it was decent. I'm not a sushi connoisseur, so it's hard for me to review it. Nobody complained about it however, and there was nothing left. Even friends of mine that weren't into sushi were eating and enjoying it. Great place to get Chinese food from, decent portions, and good quality. read more
