The preparations went to the next level for the eat in house experience! Exceptional Do not classify the Jade Palace in the norm of American Chinese restaurants.

We ordered takeout this time, and the overall experience was great. We placed an order online, and everything was very neatly packaged and ready to go when expected. The food even travelled fairly well, such that it was still in good shape after traveling home. The restaurant itself is in a bit of a drab strip mall, but it's generally nicely decorated with colorful signage and a nicely kept interior. In terms of the food, the shrimp spinach dumplings were really nicely done, with lots of flavor and texture. My partner especially enjoyed the barbecue pork bao, which were nicely steamed with a very flavorful filling. The egg tart was good, but not really my thing. It had a bit of a caramelized sugar flavor reminiscent of waffles with syrup. The spicy oil splashed noodles, one of the noodle dishes on the menu, was generally lacking: some nice toppings, but not much flavor. Overall, this is a nice little place that seems to be fairly well run. I suggest going for the dim sum and giving up on expectations for anything on the menu that isn't dim sum. Find another restaurant for your main course.

The food is great, the people are extremely friendly and accommodating. We arrived for the lunch deal around 3:00 p.m. and were seated immediately and we stayed very close to 6:00 p.m. (not eating beyond the normal, but enjoying our conversation). The staff checked on us to see if we needed more water, they noticed that we were not still dining, but enjoying each others' company, we had paid our bill and were done eating. Did not bother us, or ask us to leave as the place started to fill up with dinner guests, we removed ourselves to the outside (no chairs there--but standing and chatting for at least another 15 minutes). It would be nice if there was a bench there to sit on outside; but the place is large enough that I don't really see the need for a waiting area that would require them to put in one (outside). Not one time did a staff member ask us to leave because we were NOT eating...we had come for a late lunch and good conversation. It was really rewarding to have a business ALLOW us to sit there that long and not continuously ask if we were done, or to leave. They definitely get my vote! I will be returning. Clean, good atmosphere and inviting. Maybe it's the time of day we went, but I have NO complaints about the food, cleanliness or attitudes of the employees/servers.

If you're looking for the best Chinese food in the Pittsburgh area, Lin's Garden in Gibsonia is it. I've tried just about every Chinese restaurant around here, and nothing comes close. The service is a big part of why I keep coming back. The servers are fast, attentive, and always on point without being overbearing. You're never left waiting, and everything just runs smoothly. Food wise, the General Tso's chicken is my go to. It's exactly how it should be, light, crispy, and fluffy instead of heavy and overbreaded like a lot of places. The flavor is spot on too. Honestly, everything I've had here has been consistently great. This place just gets it right. Easy five stars. read more

Great food good prices. Only issue I have is that the General Tso's is tso freaking good that I don't want to order or try anything else. Got the lunch special that included heaping pile of crispy, juicy, tender chicken. Side of fluffy rice and choice of egg roll or soup, I opted for the soup (hot and sour). All for like nine bucks! Thanks to my brother in law Richie for turning me on to this joint. read more

She brought us a pot of tea and some hot sake that was kept warm in a tea pot filled with warm water which was really great. She also brought a beer that we had to open and pour which seemed odd since they have a full bar. I started with some hot and sour soup that arrived lukewarm at best. The flavor was good with just the right amount of heat but it definitely needed to be warmer. Our main entrees were the shrimp, chicken & scallops with garlic sauce and vegetables; the eggplant and shrimp; and the healthy steamed chicken with broccoli. It really pains me to say this but all three dishes were not served hot and the sauces were really not heated through and the flavors were so disappointing - nothing like the Chen's we knew and loved. The veggies in the first dish were raw and hard peppers and onions and carrots and the broccoli was very raw and barely even heated in the healthy chicken dish. The shrimp were very good and the eggplant was tasty. Maybe there is a new chef or this was just an off night. Very disappointing meal, we are sorry to say.

What made me order from here was actually their "no MSG" slogan on the menu. The restaurant itself is located in a strip mall near the intersection of backcock and Thompson in the north hills. The shop itself is small and may have had seating but since the pandemic only has a partition inside where you pick up your food. Out of the 50-100 times I have been here (that's not an exaggeration) my food has been ready every time with only 1 exception and I have only had problems with my order once as well. For dinner on this evening I decided to go with the general tsaos combination platter while my wife went with the chicken and broccoli and we also ordered a large wonton soup. My normal order here is the Szechuan chicken but by this point I have ordered most of the menu from the garlic chicken to the happy family and even the mapo tofu. It's all very American Chinese food which is what I expected and good if thats what you like. On this past time I really enjoyed my general Tsaos chicken as it had a thin breading on the outside and then the sauce itself was both spicy and sweet. My wife and I also love their egg rolls here and order one every time we come. While they can be greasy at times, the outside is always super crispy while the inside is hot and flavorful. The bottom line for me is that I would head back here again in the future. As a matter of a fact I have again and again and Rice King is my top American Chinese food restaurant to go to in the North Hills.

With in the last year I have happily rediscovered the CI in my continued life long search for the best offerings of American & Canadian influenced Asian Food. The blending of "The Eight Immortal Flavors" Having read many of the reviews for the CI I do offer a generality that many restaurants vary in meal preparations depending on the time of day and thus load on the kitchen staff & inventory of fresh ingredients. No matter what establishment or kitchen, it's always a consideration for you the customer to make when you order in or order take away from any restaurant. It's hard to imagine how a restaurant can carry so many menu items & be tasked with the challenges to prepare so many simultaneously and perform perfectly! Returning voluntarily & Repeatedly to any business for their services is, in itself, the greatest possible positive review.
