“We live nearby so we frequent this restaurant. Best Chinese food in town, with the best prices. I usually get the chicken lo mein, crab Rangoon, and hot & sour soup. Everything is always phenomenal. I’ve tried about 10 different items on the menu and nothing has let me down. The service is fast and they are always friendly.“

“The food here is so good, you don't understand. I am the manager at Exotic Pets next door so I have to fight not to go here every day, it is so delicious. I smell it all day and it makes my afternoon. DEFINITELY GO HERE. The menu is huge, and prices are great! One meal feeds me a big lunch for 2 days. Hot & Sour soup and Hawaiian Chicken are my favorite.“

“The BEST Asian restaurant in the Northland! The food is absolutely amazing—every dish we’ve tried has been outstanding. The sushi is fresh and delicious, and the attention to detail is top-notch. You have to try the crab wontons—they’re a must! We just had the Tokyo crispy chicken, and it was so flavorful and perfectly cooked. Honestly, I haven’t had a single thing here that I didn’t love. Chris, the owner, always greets us with a warm smile, and he and his staff make you feel truly welcome every time. Exceptional food, outstanding service, and such a friendly atmosphere—Saki is hands down our favorite spot!“

“I stopped here on the way back to Iowa. Parking was a bit tight because I was in an RV, but I managed. You can't go in to eat. You can walk up or drive thru. I walked up of course. He quoted the food would be ready in 15 minutes, which seemed a bit long. But it was actually ready in about 10 minutes. The food was phenomenal. I ordered Mongolian beef and Kung Pao chicken. Both were fantastic. I highly recommend this place.“

“The new owners are outstanding. We come here at least once every two weeks, more like every week. Their crab Rangoon is the best any of us have ever had (group of 4-5 always). Their steamed dumplings are fantastic. Service is always friendly and fast. We order a lot of food - typically 3 orders of crab Rangoon (for extras), steamed dumplings, at least 2 orders of beef and broccoli and other cantonese dishes. Every dish we’ve ordered is the best Chinese food we’ve found in MO or KS. My husband always gets a soup, the wonton soup with the chili sauce was his favorite. He says the hot n sour soup is also amazing. Orange chicken, honey chicken, Mongolian beef, beef lo mein - seriously amazing. This place should be much busier than we see it!“

“Came out on my 50th birthday to celebrate. Our entree was served and I asked our waitress, we never got our appetizers, what happened? So our food sat at the table getting cold while I ate my soup. The waitress served hit up the two tables in front of us but we only got looked at every third trip. Drinks sat unrefilled sadly while the other two tables got helped. I heard the host ask the manager about sitting us there as she already had 3 tables. Now I know why. Not the birthday lunch I was hoping for today.“

“This was a pleasant surprise. As most of you know with the smaller restaurants like this quality can sometimes be questionable, but this restaurant is absolutely amazing. The food is absolutely delicious and fresh the restaurant is clean and hospitable. I had the Mongolian beef and the Singapore mai fun. Both dishes were served hot and cooked right in front of us. The owner and staff were pleasant and happy to see us. The quality of this place was so impressive. I also ordered an eggroll and it was one of the best I have ever had crispy and not soggy at all with powerful flavor. The seasonings on all the food were so spot on. Highly recommend this one. I have not found better Chinese food in the KC area.“

“We visited Bolings after a long time and enjoyed it as much as we did in the past. The food arrived very quickly. It was presented well and tasted perfect. Enjoyed the lunch there. It was surprisingly busier than I expected it to be at 2 pm. Will be visiting again.“

“Other reviewers are complaining about the fact that this isn't authentic Chinese food. Get over it. This neighborhood isn't bougie enough for that. Go somewhere that's gentrified, you hipsters. The food may be Americanized but who cares? When you've been partying and you need something quick and tasty to help you bounce back and you are in no mood to leave the house, these guys got you covered. We ordered the Pu-pu platter, some fried dumplings, sesame beef, and moo goo gai pan. They told us it would be 30-45 minutes before it arrived and they had it there in 20. The food was hot, tasty, and just what we needed. Super generous portions on the entrees too! We had plenty of leftovers for later. The dumplings, the pork ribs, and the teriyaki beef were especially good. I'm going to have to party super hard again sometime just so I have an excuse to order from here again.“

“I had an issue with the Orange chicken I had ordered and instead of going back and complaining I just let it go. The quality, portions, freshness, speed of food of Jasmine Pavillon is normally A+++ plus. It’s one of my families favorites when we are craving delicious Chinese food here in Johnson County. Well the kids did not like the orange chicken this time, everything else was fantastic! However I was not trying to go back to the restaurant and complain and be that person. Later in the evening I received a request in my email box asking “How did we do?”basically a survey about my experience and I gave an honest review. The next day I get a message from the company and wow I can’t tell you how blown away I was by the customer service! Whoever was messaging me apologize completely took into account what my issues were. Let me know that this was not something that they want to happen again they made me feel like they really care that I’m a customer I know this is just a restaurant to everyone else. However they really made me feel like the money and my opinion mattered. Not once did they blame give excuses or make me feel like it was probably just my issue. They really wanted me to know that their complete goal is customer satisfaction and that I know the quality of their food is important to them. I cannot believe how personable this experience was. I’ve been going here for a couple years and I can 100% say I will be there #1 fan for going back! I normally don’t take the time to write good reviews unless it really is worth it and I feel like this had to be had to be said. Any company that takes the time to actually review and respond to the customers is very rare these days. I think what it was amazing was the survey was private it wasn’t going to be on social media or anything so there really was no need for the company to reach out to me and only to just take the feedback given. Places like this are very rare and they should be acknowledged. I truly appreciate not feeling like a number like everywhere else. Jasmine Pavilion showed me the quality of their food and their customers are truly very important to them. Any business especially one that serves food, that takes the time to resolve, correct or even acknowledge customers experience even if it was initially negative and turn it around to make my experience happy is so valuable . Thank you so much ! Can’t wait to order from you again!!“

“Food was pretty decent! Good flavor. But what was best about our experience getting food here was that when my mother left her wallet sitting somewhere in the restaurant while waiting for our food, she got distracted and forgot it! She didn’t even realize until way late at night after close. Thankfully, whoever was working that evening noticed the wallet and put it away for safekeeping and my mother was able to get it back the following morning. She was extremely grateful and we admire the honesty and integrity of the employee and business! So glad they noticed the wallet and are clearly paying attention to their restaurant.“

“Always enjoy Panda, but it still bothers me that they don't either cut the vegetables & teriyaki chicken smaller or at least have knives avail. Also wish their Rangoon actually had crab or even imitation crab in it instead of just cream cheese.“

“I really love this place in downtown OP. All of their food is delicious 😋. Super sad that they don't offer their half order and full order of duck anymore. It was by far, one of my favorite items on the menu...keep up the great work, and bring back the duck!“

“We had the Lemon Chicken and St. Louis Style Chicken Fried Rice...AMAZING! The lady verified that we wanted the lemon chicken and asked if we wanted to switch to an orange chicken or honey chicken and I'm so thankful I continued on with the Lemon Chicken. Got the sauce on the side. The chicken was crispy and delicious and the sauce was exactly the light lemon taste I was hoping for! The crab rangoon and fried rice were also on point! We're only in town for a short visit, yet we'll be sure to visit this place again!“

“My wife and I found this place back in 2011, when we lived a few blocks away... but still drive across town to enjoy their food. Some of the best Chinese we've had in KC in this price range. Atmosphere is only a half-notch above your typical strip mall fare, but service is always great, and the food is consistently good.
UPDATE: We stopped by last week after a long time (we live on the other side of town)... food is still excellent. Talked to the owner for a bit, and it's obvious she and her husband are working very hard to take care of their customers.“

“We’ve actually never dined in at this place either. It seen they are more often pick up and to go.
very lack of dine in, but its quite place, we had our food with to go too.
And in a way, that makes everything
I’m about to say feel even more genuine.
without the restaurant atmosphere adding to the experience, what remains is the food itself, and the people behind it.
From the very first pickup, you can feel that this is a place with real warmth.
The woman at the front often alongside her husband has this natural, easygoing energy that immediately puts you at ease.
She’s a good conversationalist too, and over time, she even remembers what you like to order
a small gesture, but it makes you feel recognized, seen. She doesn’t have to try to impress you; she simply makes you feel welcome.
Of course, there are busy moments when she and her husband are running around and might not greet you right away
and that’s completely understandable. It’s a small, family run place, not a polished chain.
But even in those moments, they always offer the best smiles.
If something is ever forgotten in your order, they don’t just let it slide; they communicate promptly, and sometimes even call to have it delivered to your home. You can feel that it’s done out of genuine care, not obligation.
The food carries the same kind of attention. It’s thoughtful, comforting, and consistent.
Nothing feels rushed or careless. Every dish is prepared with intention, and even on busy days, the quality remains steady.
It’s the kind of cooking that quietly earns your trust, and over time, that trust grows into appreciation.
I sometimes read reviews that label this place as “bad,” and I honestly can’t understand them. Some feel less like honest feedback and more like people arriving already frustrated, ready to criticize instead of noticing the effort and care. There’s a difference between pointing out issues and dismissing a good, hardworking restaurant outright.
This isn’t a restaurant trying to be flashy or trendy. It doesn’t pretend to be something it isn’t. It’s a small, family-run Chinese spot doing its best and doing it with sincerity, warmth, and consistency. Those qualities don’t always show up in pictures or quick judgments, but they matter more than anything once you experience them.
I will absolutely be coming back. Not because the place dazzles you, but because it makes you feel genuinely welcome, and the food quietly reminds you why it’s worth returning. That combination — care in the food and in the people is what makes a small restaurant unforgettable.“

“Food is great! Service is mediocre at best, almost makes you not want to order from there. Never a friendly smile when picking up food, spent over $80 and the owner tried to charge me for extra sweet and sour sauce while giving me one small cup for 5 meals.“
“Beautifully remodeled. Pharmacy staff wonderful.“
“Ordered delivery, came fast enough food was still steaming hot. It was the best orange chicken I have had in a very long time! Chicken was still tender, not heavily breaded, amazing flavor! The fried rice was a bit too dark and not many veg but the flavor was fine. Eggrolls were very good, I should've ordered more!“
