Reviews
Jade Palace is a typical Chinese fast food restaurant - nothing great, nothing terrible. The place is clean, the woman at the counter is friendly and the food is OK. I'm writing this review because after going there five times I found the food has been consistently OK and I want to counter the many very negative reviews.
I come here about every two weeks or so for dinner for the past twenty plus years. Updating my review as I noticed some recent reviews I felt were either BS or just totally off the mark and lack reasonable evidence to back them up. This is a neighborhood Chinese togo establishment run by a family where everybody in the family works there. If you had been going there for twenty years as some state you would know that. You would have observed kids doing homework after school and then working there and the same kids growing up and heading off to college. It is the same people working in the kitchen because you can see right in there. The portion sizes have remained pretty much the same and the food is as consistent as you will get anywhere similar. If you really want inconsistent when there were other Chinese restaurants in the village of Rhinebeck you could play food roulette but those places are all long gone. In the current supply chain environment where no food provider has had a stable supply chain or pricing I think this place has been just as good as any other provider if not better. As far as prices go they have ben going up the same as every other food provider in Rhinebeck. For the record food providers in Rhinebeck have been higher forever. A dinner portion as a togo Chinese establishment during the summer of 2022 going to be in the $15-$19 range. So August 2022 I ordered Dinner portions of Chicken and Broccoli, Shrimp and Broccoli with Garlic Sauce, General Tso's Chicken Chefs Special and Fried Dumplings appetizer. I have been ordering this combination for years. It cost $65.25 take the tax out the tax and its $60. So three higher end entrees (not combo specials) and a higher end appetizer. Using math (the way we objectively understand the universe) would put that in the same price range as most places and in line with Rhinebeck pricing. The quality of the food was excellent. The quantity was more than an average American should be eating at a meal. (I am big eater and I always come away stuffed here.) I will say the fried dumplings recipe has changed since the pandemic and this opinion will vary by person but the dumplings are lighter and I think have more flavor than previous to the pandemic, the dumplings back then could be a bit heavy. So for the recent one star reviewers I think you need to figure out that you are in 2022 not some fantasy land and actually observe what is in front of you especially if you claim you have been going there for years.
This is my third time coming to get food Togo. I have always ordered the #61. moo goo gai pan Their prices for the food I personally believe are reasonable. Mind you I've ordered one item off the menu. I have ordered the special platter which comes with pork fried rice and a egg roll. I'm not much for egg rolls. White rice or pork fried rice have been good. My moo goo gai pan has always been wonderfully tasty. The customer service is goodish..... I feel like they really try to be nice. So am A for effort.
We want to say at the time of this writing: WELCOME BACK JADE PALACE! We have been coming here for the past 35 years and like all of us there have been ups and downs. We ordered Beef and Broccoli, Chicken Chow Mien, Roast Pork Lo Mein, and two containers of Wonton Soup. Let me say this again and I cannot shout it loud enough, WELCOME BACK JADE PALACE YOU ARE WELL WORTH THE PRICE. Thanks again for not charging a fee for using a card which so many other places are doing. The place is clean, and the people at the counter have always been friendly. We have interacted with the grandfather, mother, father, and child (which we watched grow up from an infant.) This has been and hopefully will continue to be a family business. Whether or not it maintains this business model the food is GREAT!
