Great tasting food, we ordered way too much so definitely recommend coming with a large group. Best BBQ pork buns we've ever had. You order off of a QR code and our food arrived quickly. There is only street parking but we found a spot not too far away fairly quickly. Service is very straightforward, nothing to complain about though. Came to eat here before a UW football game and we were able to be seated immediately, not too busy. Would definitely recommend for a great dim sum spot! read more

Nooooooo!!!!!!! I have not been here in a while but I always loved their chili sauce. Now it looks like they changed it and are now offering this sweeter tasting watered down salsa type chili and it is terrible!!!! Why did u have to change the chili??????? read more

It says a lot when you see a lot of people in line with their travel luggage. Either they came straight here after getting off the plane or this is the last meal they want to have before leaving Seattle. I have seen this picture with Fat Hen in Ballard. This is also a common picture with Jade Garden, which is a great sign of its fame. Before the pandemic, there was always a long line outside the building but post-pandemic, the lines have gotten significantly shorter. I certainly hope the business prospers and gets back to its pre-pandemic level, not just for Jade Garden for every small business. Ordering is super easy. There is a QR code on every table, specific for that table, and the link opens a browser on the phone with the entire menu. Simply add the desired dishes to the cart and submit the order and they get brought to your table within minutes. And the dim-sums, oh my god. This is our favorite dim-sum place in this part of the country and they are consistent, delicious, generous-portioned, and flavorful. We also usually order their fried rice and chow fun, which are also consistently delicious. I am also a fan of their Chrysanthemum tea, which seems to go very well with the dim-sums. Paying with credit card adds a few percentage fee so plan accordingly. Jade Garden remains our favorite dim-sum place, period. read more

Stopped in for a dim sum lunch and was impressed by the quality and flavor of the various plates. Pricing was competitive with other similar restaurants. Good service from an attentive and friendly wait staff. The only challenge/frustration was finding street parking in the area. read more

Dirty. Gnats. Gross. Bad food. Smelly. No no no no no no no no no. Fried items not crispy. Fish tanks disgusting with near-dead fish. Soy sauce, chili oils etc on tables dirty with grease and stuck-on food. read more

The dim sum was nice and warm. The green beans were nice and with a good garlic flavor. Be careful when you order because not all of the ingredients were listed in the menu. We got a dish with sausage we were shocked to find as we looked it didn't say sausage. read more

My boyfriend and I were visiting Seattle for the first time and I really wanted to try a dim sum spot before we left for home. Came across Jade Garden and the outside doesn't look very pleasing but don't let that fool you. We got greeted and seated right away. Ambiance is exactly like your typical dim sum vibe. Loud, warm, welcoming, and super casual, nothing fancy! Food was good, I've definitely had better in my home town in the bay area. You just quickly place your order by scanning their QR code and get your food in a matter of seconds. My favorite was their shrimp noodle rolls and their siu mai. The food was a bit on the greasy side compared to what i'm used to in my area but that's what the hot tea was for to wash down the grease lol. What stood out the most for me was the service. They noticed my boyfriend's napkin all wet and said they'll bring us extra without having to ask. The waitress brought out most of our food and stated that we had one more coming. Usually we don't get service like that at dim sum in the bay area. So it was very observant and attentive of them which I really appreciated! Awesome customer service, fast and hot food comes your way. Prices are average but you can adjust the amount of orders you'd like so you'd still have enough to eat and more bang for your buck! Great experience and food overall read more

I've been going here since I was a kid visiting my grandparents for the summer and it's still amazing. They have made some more modern updates where you can scan the QR code and instantly order the food to your table. The service was great as well since they brought the food fast and were checking in. It wasn't too busy early Friday dinner so not too loud. All of the food was hot and fresh and just as I remembered. I was so happy it was just as good as I remembered since it was my husband's first time there. You can get a lot of food for your money here. Great dim sum spot! read more

If Jade Garden is Seattle's 'best dim sum', then I am Brad Pitt. All the steamed dumplings have ultra-thick wrappers, and the chicken feet are hard and robbery. I ended up breaking up the dumplings and just eating the inside fillings. Also they were only lukewarm not hot. What a disappointing experience. Where are all the fine Chinese restaurants in Seattle? I feel bad for the long line of tourists that come here on weekends. During the week this place is empty (we came on a Monday); apparently the locals know better. read more

Went for dim sum and it was great. Service was very attentive. The sticky rice wrapped in the lotus roll was mushier than usual for me but that would be me being nit picky because it tasted delicious. Everything was great. I LOVE their house tea. read more

So chaotic you KNOW this place is authentic. It was a crazy cold day so it seemed like a lot of people had the same idea of coming here for cozy comfort food. After getting a seat, the online ordering was easy and while they don't have cart service, they do have people that came around occasionally with dim sum options to order as you see. We got a bunch of my favorites, a chicken congee, and an eggplant dish I haven't had before but was good if you don't mind your food swimming in oceans of oil. Service was what you'd expect (one of the waitresses was SUPER sweet though despite the chaos of the restaurant). Definitely hits the dim sum craving. read more

Serves all day dimsum (later found out many restaurants in Seattle Chinatown do, which is unusual). It looks boarded up from outside, but saw some folks leaving. Pretty empty around 7pm Sat - our fault for wanting dimsum for dinner I guess. A lot of items were out by then. Standard dimsum fare, averaged $6 per item. Can order from QR code or tell waiter. Leans a little more sweet. Tasted fine but wouldn't say it's the best. Pay cash or debit to avoid extra service fee. read more

This used to be my favorite go to for years- maybe even decades of weekend dimsums with family and the late night munchies after the club in my younger days. I took my family there about two weeks ago and have sworn to never go back. We ordered dim-sum dishes, Chinese broccoli with oyster sauce, and a fried rice. Not only was the service lacking when the restaurant was not full, but I was actively being ignored when politely raising my arm and saying excuse me to our server (when I say I had to attempt at least 4 times to flag someone down I am not exaggerating- it was almost embarrassing) which meant the drinks we so desperately wanted did not come until close to the end of our meal which is also when our under seasoned fried rice came as well. On top of the lack of service, the prices have gone up so much in comparison to the other restaurants within walking distance that provide not only comparable food, better service, but better ambiance. The blocked in windows (I get it, there is crime in the CD and it's protection, but cozy it is not) plus the cramped quarters and dirty bathroom were just too much to ever want to deal with again. It's really too bad- the end of an era. read more

It was alright. Turnip cake didn't seem cooked all the way, the shumai came out cold and we had to ask for another one...but to be fair, our server was very apologetic and resolved it promptly. We had a fried pork dumpling that had very nice and authentic flavor. Pretty decent, but hoped for a bit more. Also, the area is kind of sus sometimes. read more

I've been a repeater here for many years but I just love the food! It hits all the right notes and the portions are generous. I have to admit that I miss the pre-pandemic carts. It was always such a fun experience, but times have changed. While we are branching out and trying new places, it's funny that I always compare them to Jade Garden! And I'll still keep coming back. read more

Best traditional dim sum in Seattle. Always tasty, great service and friendly atmosphere. Seattle staple.

Solid dim sum spot with a big selection. I really enjoyed the siu mai tender, meaty, and full of flavor. The steamed rice rolls were smooth and not too oily, and the dipping sauce added the perfect touch. We got seated quickly and the carts came by pretty often, which I liked. The restaurant has that busy, authentic vibe but the staff was still attentive. I'd come back for sure, especially for brunch with friends. read more

Food was fabulous and people are super friendly and nice. One of the staff (or owner) introduced us an amazing freshly-made chive shrimp cake. The indoor atmosphere reminds me of the dim sum places in the old days. It's located close to the Chinatown train station, which is convenient for people who travel by public transportation. Please go if you're hungry and nearby. read more

We were downtown Seattle during our visit and wanted to have some Dim Sum plus Chinese food for dinner. I researched a bunch of restaurants and after reading mixed reviews I was even more confused. However, I ended up being really glad I selected Jade Garden. My message, don't judge the book by it's cover. First this place is still all boarded up on the outside and second, from a guy who grew up eating in NY Chinatown, our dinner was very good 4.5 stars. This was a different experience for me as it was the first time I had to order from a QR code on our table. We got lucky and arrived when it wasn't too crowded so we were seated right away. They took our drink order and proceeded to bring us hot tea along with water. After ordering, the food came out relatively quickly. The Dim Sum was so good we ended up order more dumplings. The Siu Mai were our favorite and they were the largest we have ever had. The other hit was actually the green beans. I wanted lobster but they only had 4+ lbs and nobody else wanted crab. Next time. I would recommend Jade Garden & would definitely go back when if/when I visit again. read more

I came for dim sum today, but was not so impressed. The dimsum is overpriced, about $11 to $18 per basket (four pieces per basket). Also, I ordered the fish fillet congee; the rice congee is good, but the fish tastes like it has been spoiled or rotten. read more

Good quality and good sized dim sum dishes. Jade Garden is such a Seattle classic and I was excited to try it! Ordered delivery off Ubereats so the prices below may be slightly inflated! -Mini Sticky Rice in Lotus Leaf with Minced Pork ($7) - Good size and nicely fragranced, perfect rice texture. My only nit is I wish there were more ingredients in it, like salted egg yolk! -Honey BBQ Pork Pies ($7) - OMG, I DIED for these they were SO GOOD! Perfectly flaky pastry wrapped around a good amount of char siu filling that was the perfect combo of lean and fatty. -Pork Siu Mai Dumpling and Pan Fried Shrimp and Chive Dumpling ($7.50) - Fresh, Well Made, and Solid all around Everything was also packaged perfectly. I can't wait to dine in here! and The fact that I can get dim sum on any random weekday makes me so happy! read more

Jade Garden - Dim Sum Near Me - Seattle, Washington

A great spot for classic, casual dim sum with your family. This restaurant is pretty large with a lot of tables so I personally have not had to wait for a seat and could have brought my entire family for Sunday brunch. However, I found out after the fact that they serve all day dim sum. I love how they have QR codes at every table so it is easy to order food and they deliver it right to you without having to communicate much with the employees. As much as I love the carts that go around the restaurant at traditional dim sum places, I'm fine with more efficient and less crowded service. The dim sum is a smidge pricey but I'm so used to inflation, it seems on par with the economy anyway. The dishes were all hot, fresh, and delicious. I usually order chicken feet, hargow, shrimp rice noodles and a few steamed dumplings. It appears boarded up from the outside, but it is not. There are just a ton of artwork blocking the windows, just need to look for the door. read more

This is our absolute go-to for dim sum. We love their pork shu mai the most and we couldn't find shu mai this good anywhere else. Their sticky rice, pork buns, egg tarts, various types of dumplings, and spare ribs are sooo good as well! There's usually a wait/line regardless of the time or day but it's so worth it! The staff here work efficiently so you gotta pay attention. You have to write your name down and the number of people in your party or tell one of the staff that info. You may have to wait outside in case there's a lot of people inside. But again, it's super worth it! Don't go here if you're short on time because you don't know if you'll get a table right away. There's a scan code on the table and you can order online but you still have to pay in store. The food comes out pretty quickly so once you're seated, you won't have to wait long. One of our go-to spots in Seattle! read more

We were looking for a place to have some dim sum and found this place in Chinatown. From the outside, it looks like a war zone with wooden boards nailed on the windows. But people were going in and out of the place. Hubby dropped us off so we went inside to get a table. We waited for a few minutes and then were led through a maze inside way in the back of the restaurant. It looks like a hodge podge of old versus remodeled rooms. We tried to order through the QR code but I was having trouble with the app so we waved down a server to order. The food was hearty for dim sum and delicious. We ordered pork siu mai, spareribs with black bean sauce, bean curd roll, beef rice roll,chicken feet, lotus wrapped sweet rice, combo chow mein. All the dishes were hearty and tasty read more

This place used to be the best place for dim sum in ID but I will not return. In short words, overpriced food that is cold, shrimp tail in my dumpling, terrible service. I came back on a Saturday and yes it was busy with a one hour wait time. They changed there ordering system where you scan a QR code the moment you get seated. We placed our order and waited patiently for another full 30 minutes for our food. We thought it was normal because they were busy but we ended up watching all the people who came after us receive their food. The servers walk by but no one bothered to check on us in that 30 minutes we waited. When we saw the table next to us that arrived after us receive their food, we asked a server. We were definitely forgotten because multiple servers brought all our food out which was cold. Then when we thought it could not get any worse, we asked for take out boxes for our leftovers and were forgotten once again. By this time our parking meter was already running over time due to the incompetence of service. It was my friend's first time and they were highly turned off by this place. The dim sum here is pricey, tastes like eating leftovers, and the service has become terrible as well as in-personable. I can understand bad service on a busy day if the food was good but I am very upset/disappointed in this establishment. Will not be returning anymore when it used to be my favorite dim sum place. You'll get better service and fresher food across the street at Harbor City. read more

Great food! Love this spot. The fast service and friendly staff make it a mainstay for my family

I've only tried a handfull of dim sum restaurants, but so far Jade Garden is my favorite! Love this place. Food: We ordered almost everything, so I got to try the majority of their offerings. Don't think I had any bad dishes. Everything was just absolutely delicious. Especially liked their turnip cakes and har gow. Service: Service was fine. Staff brought out all the food quickly - while still steaming and piping hot. They kindly provided forks for people who couldn't use chopsticks too! Ambiance: A bit cramped and small inside, but hey, what you expect from an old local restaurant in the ID? You come here for the food! It's always very crowded and lively in here, so you know it's a gem. read more

Very confusing ordering using the website, but once we got our food, it totally made up for it! The beef chow fun was INCREDIBLE. You can taste the freshness and how the noodles are homemade. In addition to the beef chow fun, 2 dim sum items, we also got Mongolian beef (not pictured). These 4 items were enough to fill our party of 3 (almost too filling!) total was ~$45 Inside was very nice and unexpected from the boarded up outside!

Came here a few weeks ago. My friend and I were trying to eat at nearby Harbor City, but they were super crowded with a line stretching to the outside. We had a small child with us who couldn't wait too long. We took a short walk across the street and came here. It was about a 20 minute wait. I was surprised at how large the restaurant is. It extends to around a corner where there are more tables available. It's a traditional place with the turntable in the center for sharing. Despite the traditional setup, you place your orders through your phone. The servers bring your food based off the table number. Everything was delicious. I was most surprised by the spring rolls. They are large and full of shrimp. It was a delightful surprise. There are also other al a cart items available to order. The service was average, as the the servers are too busy running dishes out to tables. We had a good time here and got full, with lots to take home. I still want to try Harbor City, but I will definitely be back to Jade Garden. read more
