China Jade

Really bad Chinese food. I have yet to find a good Chinese restaurant in Des Moines. This is the most disappointing yet.

This is the worst Chinese food I have ever had, coupled with the worst service. First they attempted to overcharge me by changing my order to large portions when I asked for the smaller size, then I asked if the fried wonton had meat in it. It gets here, no meat in it and they took out two of the wontons and put some disgusting spring rolls instead. I open the lemon chicken and its just soggy as they’ve let it just sit in the sauce instead of giving it to me in a container. Do not waste your time and money here.

The food is good enough but you don’t get much for the price you pay. Delivery is fast, I’ve never even stepped inside the actual restaurant though

Very Yummy General’s Chicken. Great service. Not overpriced for what I expected and received.

Ordered delivery from China Jade as a last resort after realizing that the place we usually order from was closed on Sundays.
I ordered the General Tso’s chicken, my husband got the Sweet & Sour Chicken. Both entrees were slathered in a super fake gross tasting neon pink sauce… not anything like actual General Tso’s sauce or the normal Sweet & Sour sauce. Neither of us finished our meals because the flavor just wasn’t good at all. The chicken seemed to be good quality and the vegetables were good, but the sauce totally ruined it.
The one good thing about this place was that the entrees come with an egg roll and soup, which no other Chinese restaurant in the area does (usually it’s an extra charge). But considering how bad our entrees were, we definitely would rather pay more money for better tasting food.

A great family owned business. The service is almost always great, and they are very fast while still being a nice sit down Chinese place. The food is very good and high quality, and their prices are great. Their lunch specials are about $ 6. I’ve been coming here since I was 4, and rarely had any complaints. My favorite is their Mongolian beef, it’s always tender and never tough.

Let me start by saying my husband did enjoy his lo mein. First time customers that planned to dine in. Once inside we were seated and immediately started to notice the overwhelming smell (mothballs?). I’m shocked none of the other reviewers mentioned the smell. Within a few minutes we both decided we would be ordering food to go. My food was so-​so and my husband enjoyed his. Doubt we will ever eat here again.

I used to love this place a few years ago, however the last time I went there for dinner with my husband was the last time I will ever eat there!!! We sat down and opened the wrapped silverware to find a couple of live small cockroaches crawling around! I kid you not! It was disgusting. They may have decent food but after seeing that I will go elsewhere!

We are from out of town and my wife wanted Chinese food and we found this place through Unilocal.The food is excellent. It’s fresh and well-​seasoned and she said it is some of the best sesame chicken she has had. I had Hunan pork and it was great. We would come back if we lived here.

Decided to try this place for the first time today and it was pretty good! Got the Kung Bao Chicken and the Hunan Beef and both satisfied. Crab rangoons were delicious. A lot of food for a decent price. Definitely worth a try!
