Green Jade — Restaurant in London

I was a regular customer (I went there almost every day for lunch and dinner) of Li and his wife for nearly a year while studying for my master’s degree. The food is always perfect; I can say that I tried almost everything on the menu. The service and atmosphere were also better than none. I am Turkish, but I even brought my Chinese friends to try his food, and they told me the food was exactly the same in their hometown.

Describing my experience in Green Jade with these words, however, would be a mistake. Li and his wife have always been so lovely to me. I remember Li often giving me treats in the house because he knew I was a student. One day, a beggar was not leaving me and my friend alone, and Li immediately came out from his shop with a broom in his hand and expelled him. Another day, I ordered soup for lunch and dinner -I usually went for beef and rice back then. Li asked me whether I felt pinched and told me if this was the case, he could help me. He told me I didn’t need to worry about money in his restaurant so many times. In a nutshell, Li and his wife serve perfect food and are always lovely and helpful. Words are inadequate for me to describe my experience with the Green Jade. I miss them and their food so much. Always...

I have been to eat at this restaurant a number of times and keep going back to introduce new friends to the food as well as the to the people who run the place. The food is amazing and the whole package is a bit of a hidden gem.

The staff are wonderfully friendly and the old lady who usually takes the orders literally does so with no nonsense at all. What the staff don't advertise is that this place actually has a 5 star food hygiene rating from the Food Standards Agency. I've walked pasted "full size" restaurants in more reputable parts of London with a zero rating!!!!

There are only 16 seats (roughly) in the entire "restaurant" bit which means it will be exclusive regardless of any future variable.

If I had to recommend anything from the menu alongside whatever it is your planning on eating, I'd say go for the salt and chilli squid and the sweet and sour chicken, Cantonese style; they cook both dishes...

I visited there based on my friend recommendations and I truly appreciate her opinions - it was very good but cheap. You cannot find this kind of local germ very easily. Chicken curry was Japanese style, not Thai, and I and my hubby loved it. Fried garlc and pepper squid was also great. On top of that the owner guy is very kind and nice and he gave us prawn crackers as a service. What a nice gesture!! Strongly recommend to anyone looking for a genuine Chinese with...
