China Jade

I saw this place had a lot of good reviews, so I decided to try it since I was in the area, when I got my food (take-out) I opened the box and my chicken with broccoli was nothing I’d ever seen before. The chicken was super slimy and tasted like old meat. Fried rice was stale and bland. Not even a lot of soy sauce could help fix this meal:(

Exactly the BEST food in Des Moines area. Not expensive either and egg rolls are great! They do not skimp at all........so much scrimp the plate was full of scrimp!!!! Love their Cashew Shrimp!!!

The food was amazing and seasoned well and the delivery service just as great.. it was my first time eating at this establishment and it will not be my last...

Ordered delivery. Came fast. Was delicious. Will order from here again!

My husband ordered orange chicken with hot and sour soup. He said his was OK, but very bland and not one he would get again. I made the mistake of ordering wonton soup and egg foo yong. Neither of which were what they were advertised. I was really craving wonton soup – but their “wonton” soup left me wanting. First, there are no actual wontons in their wonton soup. It was actually just a water down chicken broth, no seasoning that I could tell, with mixed Chinese vegetables – pea pods, broccoli, baby corn, water chestnuts.. The vegetables would have been a welcome addition had it actually been wonton soup. But the lack of any wontons made the soup beyond disappointing. In addition, It did not having the wonderful flavorful broth that I’m used to with wonton soup, which was also disappointing. As it turned out, it was just a very bland chicken broth with noodles and Chinese vegetables.. Next, the egg foo yong was also not what I expected. When I was a kid I remember my mom taking me out for egg foo yong and getting the wonderful fully egg patties filled with vegetables and meat with a rich gravy on top. Instead, I got one giant, rubbery square egg and flour patty that resembled hard cooked tofu. On top of that was what seemed and tasted like very water down Szechuan vegetables. It was bland and disgusting. The egg patty was completely inedible. Because they’re doing takeout only, I had no way to take it back and return it. On top of that, the rice we got had to have been three or four days old. They were clearly understaffed and very busy with takeout orders, but I’m not sure how they could be as busy as they were with the poor quality of food that we got. It was our first time, but you can bet it will also be our last. The staff however-only two people working at the time were very nice. Just the food was bad.
