My husband and I rediscovered this restaurant a couple of months ago. My husband has been slowly recovering from a mini stroke last January and decided he wanted to eat Chinese food (other than Panda Express. lol). We live not too far from Jade Garden so decided to go there. I think there was only one other table taken. Not a good feeling then. Seems there were only 2 or 3 workers, but the 2 we saw were pleasant. After ordering (don't remember what) and being served, we were very pleased with our dishes. Though not many sit down customers then, the phone was ringing off the hook almost constantly with some customers already coming in to pick up their orders. That was a good sign. A couple of weeks ago on a Sunday for lunch we had two China born and raised good friends visiting from CA and they wanted us to take them to a Chinese restaurant. I thought we should take them to a nicer restaurant, but my husband liked the "homey" atmosphere here so this is where we brought them. Our guests were fine with the ambiance and they loved the dishes we ordered and were happy to take the leftovers back to their hotel. On this day, almost all the tables were taken!!

We always come here whenever we crave Chinese food. Besides convenience, it's the only Chinese Restaurant in our area. The place needs updating but service is always good.

The food selected was delicious- our family picked the 9-courses. Party of 13 (2-kids included). I called ahead to make sure they could accommodate our party. The table was ready for us. Good thing I called because there was already a large party going on half of the restaurant & as soon as we sat the rest of the place got filled on that Sunday lunchtime.

The service was very good. There was only one other occupied table in the restaurant. It was a late lunch, like 2 o'clock. When I was leaving, more people came. There's still a steady flow of customers at this hour. I was feeling hungry for some wonton. Their wonton mein hits the spot. I'd be happy to have a Chinese food spot like this in my neighborhood.

Jade Garden Restaurant located in the Waipio Gentry Shopping Center. Lots of free parking. Family run business. Service is very important to them, very attentive and accommodating. They specialize in Rice Porridges (Jook) many different options. The most interesting is their Bird Nest Rice Porridge. Tonight we had their version of Oxtail Soup (very tasty lots of Oxtail). Capital Ribs, Stuffed Duck, Honey Walnut Shrimp, and House Noodles made with Hong Kong style noodles. They do a great job with the Stuffed Duck, Boneless Duck with a stuffing made from Barley, Water Chestnuts, Mushroom, Bamboo Shoots, and topped with a Oyster Sauce Gravy. All were delicious.

Three and a half stars Typical Chinese Restaurant but staff are a bit more friendly. Large restaurant but want full on a Wednesday evening. Took a short while to be served water, etc. but there was only one lady and she was taking care if another table. Not sure but looks like a husband wide team with wife in the front and husband in the back. He brought out the food quickly. Hubby and I had the dinner plate. I liked it. Standard 2 deep fried wonton, fried rice. Also had crispy chicken, sweet sour pork, and pork chow mein. I enjoyed all of it. Fried rice had the nice char taste to it. Crispy chicken was ok, rest was good. The pork chow mein was more like a stir fry of poor and veggies on top of chow mein. I liked it, hubby didn't because he's not a stir fry fan. Daughter had minute chicken cake noodle. LOTS of chicken and Choi sum that it covered the noodles. Daughter said it was good and would condone ordering it again. If you are ok with the standard ambience of a Chinese restaurant, and like basic Chinese food then you will not be disappointed here. Wouldn't go out of my way to eat here, but definitely would eat here again when I'm the area.
