Popped by for a quick mid-afternoon refreshment. The sesame balls with red bean paste were perfect! Teas are great, too.

I usually have zero expectations for tourist restaurant areas ? but boy was I stunned!!! Especially for the price of the meals, they were so good for so cheap!

The Huntington needs no introduction but the renewed and greatly expanded Japanese and Chinese gardens are amazing. In between is the Jade Court Cafe. Does what it says on the tin: large open air courtyard with plenty of tree shade and quiet corners. Fast self-service food counter. Great Korean Chinese food delivered to your table. Brilliant!

The food is way too salty but fish is nice. I liked fried catfish but wish it’s little sweeter and less salty. Prices little high

I was surprised that the food was actually pretty decent with authentic ingredients in some of the dishes. Some of the food was definitely spicy and used chili crisp oil. The one downside of that the food wasn't really super hot and somewhat lukewarm when it should have been really hot, especially when you can see real fire from the woks during cooking. The cucumbers in chili oil were probably the highlight.

Food is pretty decent. Fresh, just a bit expensive.. but that is too be expected. Love that there is a waterfall right there by the seating area. Servers were prompt in bring out the food. I wouldn't mind coming again.

Jade Court Cafe offers some refreshments in a picturesque location. The limited hours are a bit of a drawback and it would be nice if it were open a bit earlier in the day.

This is a really good dining option in Huntington Gardens. Every single dish we've ordered has been delicious, and there are healthy options. The outdoor setting is beautiful, including eating beside bushes laden with butterflies, with water flowing in a brook below.

Great location. Small place for the number of people wanting food. Food portions are large, can be shared.

Can’t say this was the greatest food ever, because it wasn’t. The white rice was so hard I couldn’t eat it. The tofu and the green beans were good…everything else was eh (orange chicken, veggie noodles, pork dish). I wouldn’t eat here again to be honest.

Food was surprisingly great for museum food/cafe. The dan dan noodles were a great pick me up snack, perfect to share between two people or a great sized meal for one! You order inside and they bring the food out onto the patio for you to enjoy in the nice scenery.

Everything we ordered was great! But the green beans and ginger crème brûlée were the most memorable!

Food here was surprisingly good, but service was a bit slow. Seating is all outdoors at tables under umbrellas and you can sit in a garden area next to a running brook rather than on the terrace in front of the order area. Of course, you can only eat there if you have purchased admission to the Huntington Gardens.
