Jacky’s Galaxie

Love Jackies. Wasabi scallop rolls are amazing alone but overall the sushi is great. I’ve also had several noodle dishes and have never had a bad experience.

Just had lunch here about one hour ago. When my boyfriend and I arrived, we were promptly seated. We placed our drinks orders, which were brought out swiftly. We ordered the shrimp shumai, which came with a cold sauce. They were good, nothing special. (Typical shumai) After placing our order for three sushi rolls, we received them after about ten minutes! We ordered the Christmas roll, White Scorpion and Godzilla, without the Sriracha. We told the waitress that we didn’t want our rolls to be very spicy, but we didn’t mind a little spice. Our Christmas Roll had just the right amount of kick that we could handle. The Godzilla was made mild for us and the Christmas was not a spicy roll. I enjoyed all the rolls, with the non-​spicy Godzilla being my favorite. My boyfriend liked the White Scorpion the best. After we ate, we ordered a crème burlee for dessert. It was good, yet it came out room temperature with a few sections being warm. I ordered a second thai iced tea to go. Very delicious!
Overall: Service ⁵⁄₅
Food 4.5÷5
Atmosphere: ⁵⁄₅
I am giving it a 5 rating, because even though the crème burlee was cold, it was still a great experience. Fast, polite service with delicious food. I really appreciate when everyone thanks you when you leave the restaurant.

So disappointed with our takeout experience tonight. Called at noon to place a New Year’s Eve order for pickup at five. I ordered the pu pu for two, an extra order of boneless ribs, and the generals chicken/​crab Rangoon combo for $ 40. Our pu pu came with two beef teriyaki, two crab Rangoon, about ten tiny boneless spare ribs, some soggy coconut shrimp, soggy chicken fingers, wings, and two spring rolls. This is my first time ordering takeout from here and was sorely disappointed with both the quality and quantity. Two crab Rangoon is not enough in a pu pu platter, nor are two beef teriyakis for that price. All of the fried foods were so soggy they were inedible. The order was scheduled for pick up at five, and we arrived at about 4:40, which leaves no time that the food should be sitting and cooling. This definitely put a damper on our New Year’s Eve meal and we will not return.

I’ll have to say, sushi at JG is consistently good. Fresh and brought to the table with excellent service. The Godzilla maki, spicy tuna and acacia do with tempura eel on top and a drop of siracha sauce is really yummy! This is a weekly stop for me on late teaching nights.

They need to learn how to make pork fried rice. Service okay. Food nothing special heard other location is better.

Worst of the worst!
Any Chinese Buffet offers better tasting food than this place. Get your Soy Sauce ready, you will need it…

Poor service. Tempura is not cooked properly. Only if you order lot of food they will respond to you. Poor food recently

Had take out, and its been awhile. Still has great food and service is still the best. I recommend this restaurant 100%.

The servers need more personality and be more on the ball. Good is good, place is nice. Just some of the servers not happy and very short with customers.
I haven’t been back in a while.

My boyfriend and I ate here on Valentine’s Day. Food is really mediocre not something I would travel all the way here for if I’m craving chinese food. Walnut Shrimp was delicious though. I love da décor and interior. It was pretty pleasant considering that we did went there on Valentine’s Day and it was a Saturday. Overall, okay food and good service. If ever I’m in town and hungry I’ll probably stop by again.

This is a great place to have sushi! So many to choose from. And they are amazing. Very creative in the way they serve them too. They’re like works of art! Yum! Great service. Our waitress was very attentive, always checking on us and bringing us what we needed. There’s a bar area (with TVs) on one side, nice big aquarium, and the main dining area is spacious enough with tables and high-​backed chairs/​benches (?). Started off with hot tea and sushi. Shrimp, eel, tuna, salmon, and the elusive Sea Urchin!!! I was so excited. They don’t have it all the time but this time they did! Lucky night! Then ordered our usual Combo Fried Rice with Pineapples. It had chicken, pork, and shrimp. Pineapples were a dollar extra. We also had the Hunan Shrimp and Beef Loc Lac. Equally delicious dishes. It was an excellent dining experience with good food all around. Respite from a cold night. We went home happy and stuffed!

Stopped in for dinner last night and I was not impressed with the service or the food. The waitress seemed annoyed. The calamari was greasy and the chicken was rubbery.

We had the Pu Pu Platter which was okay. The chicken fingers were a little cold but everything else was hot. I also had a Maki roll which was different but good.

My 100^th review goes to one of my favorite places to grab sushi in the area! I’ve been coming to Jacky’s Galaxie for a couple of years now. While I can mostly speak for the bar experience and mostly to their sushi, I still really enjoy the staff there who works throughout the restaurant.
The sushi is absolutely amazing. Salmon lovers — TAKE NOTE: Every time I go, I get the Fire Roll. This roll consists of fresh salmon laid across the top, with salmon and avocado in the middle as well, with a little bit of hot sauce. It is the best sushi roll that I have ever had… in my life. I don’t even think it’s on the menu, so if you go and want to try out something absolutely delicious — I recommend that.
My one complaint is that as a regular, I had been getting those for so long and one day I came in and they nearly doubled the price of the roll. They had claimed that they didn’t make any money on the roll with the way it was priced but as someone who went there multiple times a week and ordered it and was a known regular, I guess I was surprised that they didn’t cut me a break. People in the restaurant claimed that the owner did not care about regulars — which was a little disappointing.
Overall, I really enjoy the bartenders — they always know your name, your order and what you drink. They’re kind and attentive. I’ve also come here for Chinese and thought it was pretty good food as well. While a little expensive for the area, I’d recommend coming and giving it a chance.

I stopped in for lunch last week and really enjoyed my meal. The lunch specials are perfect, not too overwhelming and delicious. I had wanton soup to start and then I had the chicken basil lunch option. The dish came with a fresh roll and rice. The portions are perfect, i left satisfied and not overly full.

Consistently good food. The miso soup was served piping hot and hit the spot on a chilly Sunday. Cloudy with lots of green, I didn’t mind that the tofu pieces were smaller than a leprechaun’s dice.
The nim chow… yummily gelatinous. Eat it. Eat the spring rolls, too. I miss them!
I often order the Singapore noodles without shoyu. I must eat GF and Jackie’s does not have GF soy sauce. Bummer dat. However, the noodles taste like nothing is missing. I try REALLY HARD to copy their recipe at home.
The Asian pear martini was strong. I didn’t finish it. Sacrilege to waste Grey Goose pear. :(Try The Kitchen on Hope St in Providence for an awesome pear martini!
Good stuff… extensive sushi/​sashimi menu. Drinks are just okay but they do offer Chi Chi’s in a ceramic coconut shell cup. If you’re already tipsy and missing Hawaii, they’ll do.

Come eat if you’re starving, you wouldn’t care about the warmness or quality of the food. We ordered probably three main dishes with three orders of sushi and the food came out one at a time yet it was cold??? It wasn’t that great tasting either. As for the Sushi, I do not recommend ordering at all, the quality and taste were disappointing. Servers were not as attentive as they should be. We came in around an hour or two before they were closing and they simply concentrated on making the tables instead of attending to our needs. It took us 10 minutes to waive down a waitress. She was kind by all means, but if you work at a restaurant, a customer service based, do what is needed (clean up, set tables) but still be aware of your customers… number one rule.
The only thing I probably enjoyed was the coconut icecream. But even that, it was melting by the time it got to us. I don’t get it.

Really wasn’t impressed with my experience for take out here.
I got the L 28 (General Tso’s) which comes with chicken wings and fried rice – here are my pros and cons
Pros
Re-​usable container
All white chicken meat
15 minute wait
Only $ 7.50
Cons
Rice and chicken were really mushy – appears to have been reheated almost
Sauce was very watery
Pieces not easy to manipulate with chopsticks, really big and flimsy
Chicken wings were very tough, probably reheated, not freshly fried.
Honestly, I probably will not come here again and will stick to Fortune House. I’ve been to Jackie’s in North Providence, and was hoping for the same caliber, but I was sadly disappointed.

I’ve come here for lunch several times. Very hit or miss. The one consistent item from all of my visits has been the nime chow. Many items are good, but I’ve definitely had better closer to home in Providence.

Its not truly awful, unlike many similar places, some even nearby, but the food here isn’t terribly good either.
The offerings here come as part of a very big menu, mixing in Sushi, Thai, and Seafood items with a long list of Chinese American choices. Maybe, that is the heart of the problem. They don’t seem to concentrate on anything, and the food I was served didn’t get the attention it needed.
Our appetizer of Crispy Chicken Wings with Red Pepper was incorrectly fried. The batter coating was blonde and undercooked, and unseasoned. The plate however was generously covered in the seasonings planned for the chicken. Odder still, the chicken inside each wing was hot and juicy, and cooked rather well. Weird.
The Crab Rangoons were fine, but really dull. The center filling entirely cream cheese, not a hint of crab flavor to be found.
The Seared Black Pepper Crusted Tuna appetizer was served ice cold. You’d typically expect a seared appetizer to have seen at least a little bit of heat, but not this one. Further still, the quality of the tuna was mediocre at best, soft and grained with more connective tissue than you’d normally want it to have.
Staple choices of Chicken Lo Mein, overcooked, and Pork fried rice, under-​flavored, were disappointing. And the Chicken with Lemongrass sauce was both loose and grainy.
D+, not so great.
