I really wanted bubble tea and was in the area so we stopped in here. The bubble tea was just ok and the service was fine. When we came we were literally the only patrons in the whole place. They are more of a restaurant with a bubble tea shop called "J-Bubble Tea" located inside. I can appreciate that they aren't really specializing in boba but are really meant for food and just happen to offer boba tea. I haven't tried their food so I can't attest to how that is but I probably will not return for their boba anytime soon. read more

Jade Palace Chinese Restaurant - Chinese Near Me - Freehold, New Jersey

Service bad. Had to ask to order. Not attentive. Food below average. Noodles hard and tasteless. Soup not very good. Egg roll not very good. lomein very salty. Had to use a lot of duck sauce and mustard to give it taste. And the topper was they charge $2.75 for tea. Give you a pot and 1 cup. I asked for a second cup for my guest waitress said another charge of $2.75. Ripoff read more

To begin with, the Chinese food was very good. My complaint is with DOORDASH. They seem to employ people who have a very difficult time speaking English and understanding English. The person that delivered food was one who could not understand me . I tried calling on the phone but again, without being able to speak English it was a waste of time. Now to be clear the order was for roughly $35.00 , and I gave him a 10.00 tip. That tip is simply to make the delivery without any problems. The driver was Asian which is fine, my point is if I moved to China and worked as a delivery person, I'd be expected to understand their language. I'm totally disgusted with the way things work today. read more

I popped in after a grocery run in the same complex, and as always, the staff was incredibly welcoming. The recent remodel has really enhanced the space, giving it a fresh, modern feel. I grabbed a quick pint of wonton soup to go, and for the price, you really can't beat it! read more

For the last three years, I have tried this restaurant a few times. It has always been hit or miss. Sometimes, it is so delicious and right on the mark. And then there are the other times... I had food delivered tonight that was not good. The dumplings were barely steamed, full of dough, and had no taste. The dumplings didn't even come with a sauce for dipping. The boneless spare ribs were overcooked and dry. Again, no sauce. The house lo mein was tasteless with no vegetables and barely any meat. The eggrolls were delicious, but didn't have any meat in them. They don't even give you chopsticks! I called the restaurant, and all they did was say sorry. Extremely disappointed. read more

I'm sad and I will explain at the end. I guess it's been decades since I ate here, probably with my dad. It now looks like a take out place. I thought for sure they would have great lobster sauce, but no. Thin, no ground pork, no corn starch, no garlic, no nothing except for green peas and some water chestnuts. So disappointing. Why you ask ? Because. Because this restaurant, possibly a previous owner, was featured in a movie called "In Search of General Tso". I believe it's free on Youtube. When that movie came out some years ago, maybe 10, I immediately recognized the store front and sign. People thought I was nuts, but I'm not. So I assumed, from the movie, and from the amazing shots of General Tso Chicken from Jade Palace, that the food would still be good, like old time NYC good. The shrimps are fresh and big, but the lobster sauce, the lobster sauce, is more like, let me quote a Big Bang Theory episode, Mobster sauce, because all the proper ingredients are missing, stolen, gone. Obviously I will not return. read more

This is our take out spot but we decided to cater a family get together from them. We placed the order a few days ahead of time with a pickup time 30 mins after they opened. I showed up at the exact time and everything was done and packed. The food was fresh and hot and amazing as always. They also didn't forget anything, which we know is so rare. I highly recommend as our former spot has fallen off. read more

Been coming here for over 10 years. I witnessed prices doubling and portion sizes slightly decreasing. However, this place still deserves your attention when you are in the area. Every dish I ever ordered was prepared fresh and did not had any quality issue. I would rate this place between my default go-to local Chinese store and my favorite spot for spicy pork with fried rice. read more

Take out Chinese food is usually the same wherever you go but this place was a little overwhelming even though we were hungry. The sesame chicken was super sweet and the rice was undercooked. read more

Jade Palace Chinese Restaurant - two plates of food - Chinese Near Me - Freehold, New Jersey

Ordered take out. Pint fried rice Orange beef 2 egg rolls Sesame chicken Triple crown 75$ Eggs rolls good. Sesame chicken awesome Triple crown good Orange beef was very chewy and disappointed. Felt it was a little pricey. Still searching for great Chinese take out In area. I fell like that all just buy the same stuff elsewhere and cook it. I know that's what they did at a few places where I had friends that worked. read more

Their kitchen is inconsistent. I order the same thing every Friday so I know what to expect. Well this time apparently someone new was working in the kitchen and everything was horrible. I understand sometimes things go wrong in the kitchen but when you bring it the managers attention, you expect them to make good. But this food was NOT edible. No more Fridays and never going here again because the manager refuses to exchange or credit my uneaten order. Go elsewhere!!! read more

Probably some of the worst Chinese food I've had. Even grading on a curve, knowing that this is American-style Chinese food, it was seriously underwhelming and overpriced. They say they're Sichuan and Cantonese (very different cuisines) so I ordered the quintessential Sichuanese kung pao chicken which is normally a spicy dish but this one was so bland and didn't even have any peppercorns or chilis in it - just that generic "brown sauce" that you see in a lot of Chinese takeouts, and even that was kind of congealed and relatively cold. For what we paid, we could've had way more authentic Sichuan fare at Jinli in Marlboro, but they were closed this day so we gave this place a try. Wrong move. Never again. read more

Mom made an order for fried rice and lo mein for me both came out great and delicious

We live in Jackson and made the trip for take out because Google gave it 4 out of 5 stars. We ordered mushu pork, cold sesame noodles and chicken with black bean sauce. Cold Sesame noodles were tough and hard , mushu pork was lackluster and bland and the plum sauce that came with the pan cake was thick and you had to use a knife to spread it. The chicken with black bean sauce was bland and the black bean sauce was thin like motor oil. $37.00 in the garbage! Beware I would give it zero stars if I could read more

I drove 20 minutes because we heard great reviews about this take out. BOY WAS EVERYONE WRONG!!! Please keep in mind that my family orders Chinese food once a week. Let's start with the chicken rice soup. 1- there was no chicken at all in it. 2- It looked like it was soaking in pure milk. That's how white colored it was. So I threw that out. My wife ordered wonton soup. Same milky broth but the wonton were like eating gummy bears. They actually stuck to our teeth. so we threw that away as well. My wife ordered 3 pork egg rolls. Guess what? No pork at all and it was pure white on the inside!!! How is this possible??? The rest of the food was just ok at best. Nothing to write home about. Fyi, I never post negative things about a business and this is the first time I'm on yelp. What really turned me off was when I called the restaurant and spoke to a woman about my concerns. She wasn't helpful at all and chose not ro make it right. Instead, she said (you no like my food? No problem, bye bye. Ladies and gentlemen, I can't make this stuff up. Do yourself a huge favor and do not eat there. It was absolutely terrible!!! Cost me a little over 90.00 but it was a lesson learned. Good luck everyone and don't say you weren't warned!!! read more

We used Uber Eats Friday night at 630 and had hot fresh food delivered in 45 minutes. Food was amazing and we will order again. Blown away and I'd give 5 stars in more fortune cookies and sauces were given. What about tea bags too. Those extra perks give stars. read more

Well we are in Corvid 19 stay at home. So we thought we would try the Jade Palace takeout. Here's what we got! Fried Dumplings were spot on! Awesome! Chicken and Broccoli with white sauce and brown rice. Delicious. Order of Broccoli in brown sauce was excellent. Delivered by a cheerful woman with a PPE mask and gloves. It arrived quickly and was pipping hot. We will be ordering here again and I think we will also try the dine in. Fine job by the Jade Palace. Thanks for coming into work and feeding us all. Kudos read more

We ordered vegetable chow fun and broccoli with garlic sauce which were both good though the broccoli was a little greasy however it's a good spot with friendly staff worth trying. read more

So I haven't been here in over a year but I was in the area and decided to get takeout. I was so DISAPPOINTED! What happened to this place? The food wasn't terrible, it was just soooo BLAND! I really thought maybe I had Covid because everything was tasteless! Black pepper beef: not spicy, chicken with garlic sauce: no garlic or spice, just tons of celery, pork dumplings: too doughy, flavorless meat, & sauce was just soy sauce, pork fried rice: might as well have been white rice, wonton soup: clear & flavorless broth. Considering how pricey this place is, I will not return! read more

Meals are very expensive and the food is mediocre at best. Very disappointing. Expected nice large shrimp at their price but were very small. Will not return. Other places in the area are better and more economical. Two stars since staff is friendly and are open 7 days a week. read more

Sharon was great. Service was perfect. I had the king pao chicken. Everything was yummy and tasted delicious. The lunch specials were priced right. Great little spot to hit. read more

Ordered here food was not very fresh dumplings tasted sour -our beef and broccoli tasted old as did the shrimp. The soup was ok as was the rice although that was very bland. Beware here as neither of us felt well afterwards for a few days could have been msg or something else . Most of the food was discarded. read more

Food: Jade Palace was delicious. I especially enjoyed the sesame chicken. It was cooked to a crispy perfection. Our table was decorated with different lo meins and soups all cooked with asian authenticity. Each and everyone was to die for. 4/5 Service: Our waitress was one of a kind. An older Asian woman took our food order and waited on my party. She was entertaining as well as insightful. I couldn't have asked for better service. 5/5 Location: The location is a bit small, but very exclusive. Only a few tables in the restaurant keeping clutter and noise levels down. Many people came inside to grab pickup orders, another foreseeable downside. 3/5 Total:12/15 read more

If I could give this place zero stars I would. I placed a large order today for my daughters birthday. When I arrived to pick up my order I was told they were busy and were just putting my order in. I told the lady I would wait in my car. 20 minutes later I went back inside and the order still wasn't ready. After over an hour of waiting and asking 3 different times of orders coming out were mine she finally admitted she still did not put my order in. I left empty handed and angry after waiting over an hour and a half for my daughters birthday dinner. Thanks so much for the crappy service. read more

Pandemic 2020, only Chinese restaurant in town that was open. Ordered wonton soup, ribs and fried rice. Wontons were mushy, the ribs were not very meaty, and the rice had no taste. May give them another chance when the word goes back to normal, but it was down right awful. read more

I've only ordered take out here during the last few years. The wonton soup is "ok", their steamed dumplings are good, but what I really find very good is their chicken with broccoli. In all the years I've been taking out from here, I always thought it was odd how there was hardly anybody eating there (well before Covid). On occasion I'd see a couple of people eating there but never more then a table or two. I've noticed that they are renovating the place. Maybe the new decor will help. read more

If you're planning to dine-in at this small Chinese restaurant, don't expect to have too much company. Only one other couple was there when my friend and I had dinner here on a Friday night. While we were eating, we did see several people come in for take-out orders, so that is probably where most of their business comes from. We ordered hot and sour soup and the egg drop wonton mix soup, which were both good. The main dishes we shared were shrimp lo mein and Mongolian beef. They both hit the spot, with the perfect amount of shrimp in the lo mein and beautiful presentation of the thinly-sliced beef. The portions were huge, so we had leftovers as well. I enjoyed the food a lot, but boy was I thirsty after! This is the perfect place if you're in the mood for lots of food and quiet company. read more

I'd give a zero if I could. They lost my online order. They argued with me I didn't place an order. Someone came in 10 minutes after me and got their order before me. Gross incompetence. What happened? read more

Pretty great Chinese food. The fried wontons were a bit light on meat but overall really enjoyed it

I've never been to a Chinese restaurant before where every dish had absolutely no flavor. From the eggroll to the soup to the fried rice to the chef special triple crown( which was supposed to be spicy and made even more spicy for me) not only was there no heat/spice but no flavor. And the grand manier shrimp was nothing special to ride home with that either I can also say I won't be returning but the choice is to you. The gentleman behind the desk was very nice and they weren't seating anyone inside it was take out only, but I could probably name half a dozen. less than three star restaurants that have more flavor in their Chinese food then this place Don't waste your money on gas or the meals Not unless they get a chef that can cook read more

we have ordered from them once a week. we heard the place was sold. ordered & it was just awful. Need a new place in Freehold. Any recommendation? read more

I ordered take out from here a few times. the lo mein and chicken and broccoli are my personal favorites. the service and family there are really great and great deals on the lunch specials read more

Dropped in for dinner Saturday night. At 6:15 we were the only two people in the restaurant. Several other diners arrived during our meal. Hot and sour soup was tasty. We ordered egg rolls, ribs, dumplings, house lo mein and Triple Crown. Our meal was just average. Portions are enough to share. The restaurant is in dire need of updating. The staff was cordial. They still offer pots of tea and serve pineapple chunks for dessert. Prices are moderate. read more

Well....we walked in tonight two tables in there. The lady at counter was on a LONG personal call, never looked at us, we waited 5 minutes for her to tell us " sit wherever". TWO tables in the place had patrons.....two dirty tables, so we sat at a table for 15 minutes, one waiter, counter woman again on a personal call, we asked for menus and were ignored. 20 minutes spent......thank God no money spent......we found an AWSOME place instead. NEVER EVER WOULD GO BACK THERE!!! read more

Excellent casual Chinese dining. We've dined here for lunch several times and the food is consistently tasty and fresh. The flavors and style remind me of old school Chinese food growing up in Brooklyn. We will definitely will return. read more

Tried this place for the first time and the food had no flavor at all. Very bad Chinese restaurant

Placed and order for a egg roll and wonton soup by phone was told ten minutes. I arrived in 10 minutes to find the hostess at the desk trying to sort out a missed order. She was running back and forth to the kitchen. Never even said anything like I wasn't there. After 10 minutes and getting to know the upset costumer next to me who placed an order online that they didn't have. I finally get to ask for my items. Well she looked at me puzzled and said oh well you to wait 10 min. I was completely off put and told them to cancel. Now 25 minutes into getting two items I went the place down the street and I was in and out in less then 5 minutes.... And I ordered at the counter I didn't even call ahead.. NEVER AGAIN read more

Not bad, not great. Pretty standard suburban Chinese food. Some of the dishes (family style tofu and others) come drenched in hoisin sauce, which is strange. Vegetable dumplings seem to be filled with the same sauteed cabbage that is in the vegetable spring rolls, so that was disappointingly repetitive. Vegetable chow fun was better than expected, though! Chow fun is tricky, because it's so delicate and can fall apart as you stir-fry it, but Jade Palace does it well. Ambiance is casual. Service is very good. read more

I am so confused why this place has 3 stars. This is the best Chinese food in all of New Jersey! The dumplings are to die for! Sesame chicken is light, crispy, and fluffy. Love the chow fun with roast pork as well. Amazing wonton soup and egg rolls too! Must try this place read more

Great customer service and satisfying good tasting food. We came here 25 mins to closing. Man in the front (seems like the owner) welcomed us and let us take the time to enjoyed our food. read more
