Jade Island uses fresh ingredients for the food, and they are making food that keep me come back for years.

Hair in delivery soup. Disgusting. Too lazy to call up and complain so I’ll just leave a one star. Would not order from here ever again. None of us have black hair.

This was my first time ordering from jade island. The food has no taste the spare ribs were microwave. I ordered vegetable roast pork egg fu young. No taste, no vegetable except for onion, and the pork was horrible. It had a taste of warmed up pork. This place is very expensive $$ and for the price the quality of the food is disgusting. The owner was very nasty when I called to tell them. He did nothing and hung up in my face. Be aware 45.00 for 2 combination platers and it's went in the gararge!

Wow the food is amazing here. I been going here for over 30 years and still nobody can be as consistent with Chinese food on the island. Love the noodles and duck sauce.

This used to be one of my regular spots back in the '80s, '90s, and early 2000s. Haven't been here in about 25 years. The decor is exactly as the same as it was back in the day. I don't mean the same motif, I mean it's like exactly the same stuff in here as it was 40 years ago lol. And that isn't a bad thing, the place looks awesome. Food was very good, as it has always been here. The food came out shockingly fast, and was fresh and flavorful.

I don't know how this place has such high reviews, the service was terrible, the waitstaff was terrible, $13 for a half rack of ribs ONLY. Waitstaff sat us next to the kitchen and started moving tab
One of the worst experience we’ve ever had. Server was very unprofessional and definitely not welcoming. Would never go back there.

Jade Island gets this year's award for outrageous price gouging. Their insanely stratospheric prices: $25.50 for Beef with Garlic Sauce; $24.25 for Shrimp with Lobster Sauce, are representative of the opportunistic, greed-driven price increases one sees across the restaurant board.
The food is pretty good, but there are countless other Chinese restaurants with similar menus making less overpriced food that is no worse than what comes of of Jade Palace's kitchen.
The fact is that the wholesale prices for the common, mid-quality ingredients that are found in every dish prepared by virtually every Chinese restaurant have not doubled or tripled in price. But those dishes are now commonly priced that way.
It's unfortunate that so many restaurants that don't rely on rare ingredients have taken the "inflation" news wind and raised prices that are keeping me away.
When compared to the prices at Shun Lee Palace, located at 55th Street and Third Avenue in Manhattan, generally acknowledged as New York's most expensive Chinese restaurant, Jade Island is now charging about 2/3 of Shun Lee's prices on virtually everything.
Shun Lee is a white tablecloth restaurant with a formally attired wait staff located in midtown Manhattan that has been open for 50+ years.
Jade Island is none of that.
These money grabs are not confined to Jade Island, but it is one of the more egregious offenders. Staten Island's isolation and lack of restaurant competition s part of this, uninformed customers who will simply pay without question is another part.
We are already seeing reactive discounts spurred on by price resistance to fast food item prices and other restaurant offerings.
I'll be surprised if Jade Island doesn't react to consumer sentiment in the same way.
