    Great food, great people, great atmosphere! Gem of a place in a small town. You can't go wrong.

    Awsome food definitely better than the other Chinese food place in Washington. Huge huge menu! The staff was very fast at making the food and sorta makes me question if a lot was prepared before and just frozen.. Also they have a fish tank with turtles and they have no dry spot! They must be so exhausted. Hopefully they fix it. But beside everything the food was good, and still unedably hot when I got it to work which was nice. I recommend this place to any passerby.

    Beautiful decoration

    See all

    This is just really good Chinese food! They can also accommodate gluten free (just substituting white sauce) for many dishes.

    There is a big variety of dishes available and the lunch menu with a hearty serving of your chosen dish plus rice, soup and an appetizer is a great value.

    Jade Palace - The showdown between a crab Ragoon and a magnificent pup cup of fried rice

    1 star because zero isn't an option…read more I didn't know Jade Palace was running a social experiment on how little food you can serve for $34 before someone calls the health department, but here we are. First off, I've been to plenty of Chinese spots in my life, and even the hole-in-the-wall places will heap you up like they're trying to feed a football team. Not here. These folks handed me what can only be described as a pup cup of rice. Like literally, I could've ordered a Starbucks dog treat and come out with more carbs. Then came the "egg rolls." Spoiler: they weren't egg rolls. They were limp, barely warmed-up spring rolls stuffed with sadness. Two of them. I ordered egg rolls and ended up with appetizers straight out of a gas station freezer section. Uncooked on the inside too--crunchy outside, still questioning life on the inside. Beautiful. Now let's talk about the chicken and broccoli. Usually this dish comes swimming in sauce--like the kind you actually want to drown your rice in. Instead, I got a dry broccoli funeral with a few strips of chicken sprinkled on top. No juice. No flavor. Just vibes. Honestly, if my Tupperware lid had more moisture from condensation than my meal, something went terribly wrong in the kitchen. $34 for this? Jade Palace, y'all should be arrested for armed robbery with chopsticks. At this point, I'm convinced the chef just saw me walk in and thought, "Let's see how far we can push this guy before he calls the health department." Well congratulations, I'm one step away from dialing. If you're into overpriced rabbit portions, mystery eggroll-spring-roll hybrids, and flavorless broccoli fitness bowls, Jade Palace is the spot for you. If you actually like Chinese food? Do yourself a favor and eat literally anywhere else--even Panda Express would be fine dining compared to this nonsense.

    higher prices super small portions on the rice be ready to…read morepay 17-22 bucks per person or more. i order the larger full evening portions not the lunch portions. my go to is still the moo goo gai pan. the food flavor and taste was good. just smaller portions than from other places. and so i need to fire up the rice cooker for a portion before i pick up the order to go. that way i have enough to feed a hungry person. if you are eating 3 to 4 meals per day the portion here will be enough.

    Whew! I finally made it into this place…read more Ok 4th July 2025 11:30 am prime time Pay as you enter. Holiday price just under 15 bucks. Smells good as you enter! Small buffet not what I was expecting Ok on to the food First small plate samples: White Rice and lomein noodles And sample a bit of everything Plastic plates and plastic silverware Big butterfly jumbo shrimp silver dollar size! No shrimp sauce Real good as is! The chicken pot stickers were spot on perfect! Rice was spot on jasmine rice awesome flavor! Lo mein wow outstanding! I could have made a meal out of those two things! Chicken broccoli check! And good Steak and onions with green peppers check but I only did the steak and onions as green peppers are not an out of town road food for me Really good Some cashew chicken I did not see any nuts but it was a little warm on the spice Egg drop soup well mine is better lol But a dash of soy sauce to flavor it And was ok. Second trip more of the same. Hot day so just the small sampling Drinks are serve yourself and included in the 15 dollar price Yea I would stop again if I was in the area But not a destination place for me

    Listen, this place has been with MP for a few generations now. In all honesty this place still hits…read morehome for me and I love their buffet food. The Ambience is still there though I remember they used to play music there back in the 2010+ but either way the place is a nostalgia to visit. Their service is nice and welcoming when you come in as they would keep up refilling the food trays in the warmer with fresh ones. They know what their customers like and will be on it to make sure you are pleased! Now you all are probably wondering if the food is nice, that is up to you guys to find out but I personally love their Lo Mein (or Cho Mein I forgot the difference) and their Chicken Skewers!
