Jade Dragon - Lettuce wraps & Mongolian Beef!!! - Chinese Near Me - Hinsdale, Illinois

The Jade Dragon is a reasonably decent Americanized Chinese restaurant. It also serves some more traditional Chinese dishes, such as noodles, tofu, and others. What comes out of the kitchen is ok, that is to say, not bad. So far as dine-in goes, the decor is very simple. The restaurant is family owned and operated, so service is pretty good. It enjoys a good, well-earned reputation in Hinsdale, as can be seen by the crowd eating there many nights. I would most recommend Jade Dragon for carry-out. You get the decent food for a reasonable price, and you can eat it wherever you like. In summary, The Jade Dragon is a decent restaurant. It is best for carry-out but it does have a simple dine-in space. Service is very good and the food is not bad. I can recommend it, particularly for carry-out. read more

*Sigh* The search for good Chinese goes on in the 'burbs. Jade Dragon is what you would expect from an average Chinese restaurant: Greasy food, overly sweet sauces, fried rice that makes you feel like crap later on. Except you have to put up with paying a premium for these experiences, thus the two stars. I'm picky about my Chinese food, so if you're into the usual American Chinese fare you might like this place. I just can't stand paying a premium for the kind of stuff you get at a Chinese buffet. I will continue to root out awesome Chinese food at a good deal in the 'burbs...it has to exist somewhere. read more

We go here all the time. It's a local favorite and the staff is super friendly. Beef and green beans (not on the menu) is our favorite dish. They can make it by request. Salt and pepper shrimp is also good. read more

A good 'in a pinch' Chinese joint. Simple, cheap lunch menu which include an egg roll and your choice of soup. This is one of two restaurants where I go and order the same thing everytime: B"eef chop suey, extra meat, spicy, fired rice, egg roll, hot & sour with green onions." When I am in Hinsdale, this is my go to lunch restaurant. Note, if you want some really awesome Chinese, head up to Lao Sze Chuan on Ogden. A decent drive(and I think it is Downer's Grove) but it rocks, and well worth it. read more

Local Hinsdale restaurant that has been consistently good for decades! They are always very busy, and probably do as much carry out as dine-in, I tend to patronize when I'm visiting my parents and we don't usually bother to eat there. Extremely nice family that runs it, always super fresh ingredients, crisp veggies, and willing to sub almond for fortune cookies no charge:) read more

This place will be my go to spot for Chinese food. The Staff were on point, food came out in a timely manner. Food was excellent with big portions. My girl had her Chinese broccoli which she craves and you can bring your own wine with no cork fee. If you're in Hinsdale and have a taste for Chinese stop at Jade Dragon. read more

Haven't been there for several years.Place use to be very good. Must have changed hands since we were there last. Beef and broccoli. Broccoli was large pieces and almost raw. Sauce almost non existent.Vegetable egg foo young only OK. It nothing special.Egg Roll dry and hard. Worst won ton soup ever. Won't be back. read more

I live in Hinsdale and I love Jade Dragon Restaurant!! This restaurant has great, patient, and reasonable waiting service. The food is very delicious. I go very often with my friends and I get different food every time, and it is some thing new and flavorful when I do. I would recommend Jade Dragon Restaurant to anybody that ever had doubts about it. read more

Needed a chicken appetizer fast that would feed 25 people. Went with the sesame chicken. It was outstanding. Tender and tasty. Ken, the chef fixed me up with a great carry-out tray that kept the chicken nice and hot for my people. Will definitely do this again. Thanks, Ken!!!! read more

I live in Chicago but my in-laws live near Hinsdale. We've been to this place a few times and each time I wish that there was a place like this in Chicago. Casual, cheap, old-school Chinese, that is DELICIOUS! Weirdly, it's a rarity nowadays. (Seems like Thai is the new Chinese or something.) Anyways, highly recommended for a casual meal or take-out. Try the sesame chicken and Won-ton soup! read more

Lunch specials are the way to go. You can get in and out a quick as McDonald's. Probably the same price afterwards. Food is good quality and consistent. And a nice walk after in Hinsdale is always nice. I've eaten there several times and never disappointed!!! read more

Wow how to describe Jade Dragon.Well they have the best Chinese food ever! They have the typical chicken fried rice and spring rolls and what not =) Well My two favorite things there to eat is an scalean pancakes and these almond cookies that tastes AMAZING!!!!! I usally don't like almonds but it actully really tastes good!!!!Those are the best Cinese cookies I ever had in my intire life.Go and give Jade Dragon and have get a great meal there!!!!!!!!!! =) read more

The food here is fantastic. All the vegetables are fresh and crisp. The sauces are home-made. Don't be fooled by the standard Chinese-restaurant menu, it's beyond "standard". I can't think of one menu item that I haven't enjoyed. These are my favorites: * Lettuce wraps with plum sauce * Shrimp with creamy sauce and candied walnuts * Orange Beef * Salt n Pepper Pork * Pot Stickers * Green Beans with almonds The owner is really nice and will walk around and talk to people sometimes. read more

Am back visiting and stopped by for lunch. Forgot how much I love their food. The Sesame and Orange chicken are the best I've ever had and the fried rice is great too. Everything is freshly cooked which is a nice change from all the places with large batches made for the buffet. read more

Best Chinese food I've ever had. Period. I'm biases as I grew up eating take out from here, and my friends and I used to ride our bikes there for the lunch special before we had our drivers licenses. Owner does magic tricks and other cool shit. The Empress Chicken is the standard of what I think Chinese food should be. read more

I will never set foot in there again. Our experience on 12-8-10 was just as bad, if not worse than before. Poor, poor service from that young man with the glasses, and a very cold staff in general. We searched and searched but couldn't find a single vegetable in our "vegetable fried rice". When we asked about this - to another waiter since ours permanently disappeared after taking our order in total silence- he said they put less vegetables in for the lunch menu!!! The food was not hot and not particularly tasty. They insist on over-filling the teapot so that it is impossible to pour the tea into your cup without flooding the table. I have no idea HOW they are still in business. read more

Im asain and I wanted to check this place out and this is Not Chinese! Dont go here! Especially if u want authentic Chinese. Its prepare fast and bland! The worst money I ever spent! I willjust stick to china chef in Westmont, il. On cass ave by the train station. ..never will come here ever again!!!!!!!!!!you people have bad taste lol you dont know real Chinese if it bite you in the ass! the best thing here is the free cookie... you get what u pay for. Terrible. Garbage. read more

Jade dragon has been a tradition for my friends and I since we were in high school. The food here is delicious! The decor of it hasn't been updated in years, but the food makes up for it. I highly recommend the orange chicken and crab rangoons. read more

Jade Dragon - Chinese Near Me - Hinsdale, Illinois

I tried this place based on the rave reviews I read all over the internet. We ordered three entrees and three appetizers. Everything tasted good, but suddenly I felt stomach cramps and ran to the bathroom. I vomited. I wasn't sure if it was just a fluke, a bug, or what. The other two people I was eating with were fine. Fast forward 3 weeks and the exact same thing happened. I ordered a different entree and different appetizer. My stomach started hurting and I vomited. I give up! I'm not sure what the deal is with this place, but they are two for two in making me sick. This has never happened to me before when eating any other Chinese food. In fact, I love Chinese food and wanted to love this place. But, alas, after getting sick again tonight I quit this place. read more

They're horrible service. I called in and ordered their lo mein and asked about the Egg Roll that is clearly stated or comes with on the website and the person who answered refused to give it to me and said they don't go by their website. He would just tell someone to take it down. Horrible attitude. read more

A real bad Chinese chicken shack. This small restaurant in downtown Hinsdale really is out of place in this luxury eatery area and the food is really bad. You will order a beef dish and they give you a bunch of vegetables with white rice and three strands of tangy old beef. This place is a ripoff and is terrible. read more

One of the best things about this restaurant is the owner, Lop (or Lap, not sure). He's a great guy, very accommodating, and will sometimes even do magic tricks :) I also really like the atmosphere of the restaurant because it is a pleasant, traditional dining room that doesn't try to be hip or something it's not. My favorite things to order, so far, have been the lo mein and ragun. They have been accommodating in helping me adjust my order to make it vegetarian. Also, they cater - my friend gets catering from them every year for a party. read more

This used to be one of my favorite Chinese restaurants. Even after moving to Brookfield, I'd still make the drive to Hinsdale. Rumor has it the old owner sold it to his employees. I ordered carry out last night. The fried rice was awful and lacking flavor. The potstickers were good but the special sauce cup that they come with was 1/2 empty. The crab Rangoons are no longer crab Rangoons since there is no crab inside. It's only cream cheese and scallions. Egg rolls were good but not a reason to drive back. So frustrating read more

I have been going here throughout my whole life. Done in, carry out, you name it. The food is great and the price isn't as expensive as Panda Express or other Chinese places. Friendly staff with a "hole in the wall" food quality that'll make you wanna come back again and again! read more

Shame on anybody who gave this fantastic restaurant anything less than four stars! That means YOU Iamine I., boring and unimaginative my....well you know what I mean. This restaurant is great, it's affordable on Hinsdale standards, and one of those comfort food places that my family and I seem to always be craving. If you want to try something that will blow your mind, I recommend the Ginger Scallion Beef. read more

This is hands down my favorite place to come for good American-style Chinese food (and I am Chinese). My favorites are the potstickers, green beans, chow fun, lettuce wraps, walnut shrimp, and sesame chicken. You can't really go wrong with anything on the menu. We usually order the same things every time (see above) but have tried a wide range of items and it's all been good. Carry out service is great, as is dining in. Any time I crave good ol' Chinese takeout, you will find me here. read more

My family and I have been coming here for years for Chinese. The staff is so friendly, and the food is consistently good.

Great. Place for American Chinese food. Actually cooked by Chinese people. Their food is fresh and good. Portions are generous. Good place. Best in Elmhurst / Bensenville without a doubt read more

It used to be family tradition with my in-laws to go down to Chinatown for good old fashioned Chinese cuisine. We each have our favorite dish that would get heaped up on the lazy Susan and we would all share. The horoscope placemats made for fun conversation. Good times. These days, we would rather keep it local and luckily we can go to Jade Dragon in Hinsdale and get all of those favorite dishes created the same way. We went recently for a family dinner and my husband got his favorite, Peking Duck and the execution was perfect. Not too charred, and with a plentiful and tasty duck wrap course. My father in law enjoyed his fried rice, my mother in law got her favorite - whole boiled fish, and I delighted in something I had not had in ages - pan fried noodles! In the changing world of Asian cuisine where fusion is becoming more prevalent, it's nice to be able to get the classic Szechwan/Cantonese approach and Jade Dragon does it RIGHT. read more

This is my favorite Chinese restaurant of all time. I started coming here in high school 15 years ago and keep coming back. I love their egg rolls, crab rangoon, and orange beef. All delicious! The governor's chicken is also good! read more

First time there in July. Lunch specials are really generous and a good value. The food is good. At the recommendation of my friend I tried the green bean dish - good recommendation for first time there. (Funny I guess) The waiter looked at me as if I had two heads when I asked for half egg drop soup/half hot-n-sour soup. read more

Their eggrolls are the best I've ever had. Unfortunately, I was unimpressed with everything else. The Kung Pao and Chicken w/ Vegetables were ok but I'd never go out of my way to eat here again. read more

OK, I'm only giving this place 3 stars because you can't really find many Chinese restaurants in Hinsdale. The food is decent, but I've had much better. The prices are over priced, but again, its decent if you want Chinese without having to drive really far. read more

This is our go to restaurant for Chinese. Is it the best? No, but you won't find much better locally and trust me, we looked. Reminds me of the restaurant my family dined at weekly when I was young. This is one of the few places in Hinsdale where they don't take advantage of the location. Prices reasonable and service is exceptional. We have hosted groups here and the quality and service doesn't waiver. Favorite dishes: Vegetarian egg rolls, Szechwan green beans, Orange Beef, Chicken Chow Fun, and Chicken Moo Shu. If you want your food spicy, be sure to tell the waiter. Owner lives in Hinsdale and is in the restaurant regularly. read more

Actual Rating: 2.5 Stars. Pretty much what comes to mind when you think of your standard Chinese Restaurant. Nothing fantastic here, nothing terrible here. Prices are fair. Service is good, but distracting when the servers all sit around and talk in the back. Interior decorations are completely lacking, in fact the whole restaurant needs a complete remodel. Plain white walls with very few pictures or other Chinese decorations. I'm sure if they invested in the interior of their restaurant, they would attract more customers who were willing to pay slightly higher prices for a better dining ambiance. Come on, you're in the middle of downtown Hinsdale!!!! People would pay for a nice dining experience!!!! Carry-out portions are on the smaller side. read more

I love this place. Everyone is so friendly and I love their tea. They have the best orange chicken and great egg rolls. They have plenty to choose from and are reasonably priced. The place has a nice feel to it and the service is quick. I went here for a birthday dinner one year and the owner came over and made me a little origami heart out of a dollar and did a magic trick. It was really nice. I recommend to anyone looking for good Chinese food that isn't super expensive. read more

This is the worst restaurant I've been to in years. The service was non-existant and the food was mediocre. The staff was unfriendly and the atmosphere was uninviting. China Chef in Westmont is a much better choice. read more

Jade Dragon is amazingly delicious! They have THE BEST egg rolls. I always order sweet and sour soup, vegetarian delight, sweet and sour chicken or sesame chicken when I dine in or carry out. I always say I want to try something different, but cannot bring myself to do so. The food is fast, piping hot, and tasteful. I probably eat here twice a month, only because I'm dieting...if not dieting, I would twice a week! I hosted my sister's bridal shower here because my whole family loves Jade Dragon. We had the entire back portion of the restaurant, brought in our own sweets and wine and champs. The service was great and restaurant accommodating, per usual. read more

Always get my Chinese food from here. Conveniently located and fast take out service. The man by the cash register is always so friendly and funny when I pick up my order!. The prices are much better then other local Asian food restaurants and the food always tastes good. I have only dinned-in three times before, but I take out from this place every month or so, I really like the food! read more
