Jade Dragon Chinese Restaurant — Restaurant in Colorado Springs

First time dining here. Have lived in the neighborhood but just never got in. Tonight we decided to go. Very clean dining areas with cloth napkins and water glasses upon arival. Nice table setting. Very nice food selection from appetizers to entrees. I had the general tao chicken and my wife had the sweet and sour pork. We also had the cheese wonton appetizer (6 on the plate. Very fresh and crispy. NOT oily) We went about 430pm so it was pretty empty. Amazing service from our friendly waitress. Food came out when we wanted it. Everything tasted so fresh. Fried byt absolutely not greasy. Tender meat and the vegetables were cooked just right. Colorful and crisp. We will definitely be going here again and most likely ordering take away on nights we want delivery. I meant to take a before picture. But, you can see by the after picture, they definitely give you enough that you can take home your midnight snack. Very competitively priced. If you love good Chinese food, i definitely can recommend The Jade Dragon.

**12.10.23 update... went back again for the Dragon Family Dinner for 2. Food yet again was incredible. This family dinner could have fed 4. Took 3 to go trays home. Forgot to take a picture of the huge bowl of soup and the Pu Pu Platter that start the...

Had dinner as well as ordered delivery twice in the span of two weeks in March 2024. Had the Pu Pu Platter and Mongolian Beef at dinner at the restaurant, had lunch Beef Lo Mein, lunch Kung Pao Chicken and had Ma Po Tofu for delivery. For dinner, went on a Sunday night with a group of 3 and had a pleasant dinner. We all enjoyed the food and service. Staff were pleasant, kind and attentive. For delivery, ordered lunch on a Friday and dinner on a Sunday. Food both times came packaged well, food was hot and the lady who delivered both times was very kind and pleasant. Lunch portions were great and the addition of soup, fried wonton, fried rice and egg roll were so good! The Ma Po Tofu was so delicious and such a large portion which was greatly appreciated. It may take a dish or two but I feel like it isn't hard at all to find something you'd enjoy here. Out of the food I've had, some shine brighter and taste much better but overall I enjoyed each dish. Delivery appears to be a great option if you live close by (free delivery within 3 mile radius with $18 minimum order) and I feel this may be my go-to for delivery due to the delicious food and quality service. Also shout-out to the delivery lady again for her amazing attitude and service...

I ordered takeout from here. From further reading the reviews, the issues are with takeout. Seems the dine in customers are nothing but happy. Anyway, the online ordering process was simple. Online and very user-friendly. Prices were good compared to other restaurants, but when I saw my food, I realized why. Sooo small of a portion size. The orange chicken and pork lo mein were pretty standard, but the General Tao's and Hunan beef were 1/2 of what im used to getting. The orange sauce was very good, but the breading consistency of the chicken was like airy and puffy like sweet and sour, which isn't my favorite. The Taos...ugh. Sauce was limp, lifeless, and bland. Very dry. No peppers and never had this dish without at least broccoli with it. Zero. The pork in the lo mein was very dry and like thick spaghetti noodles rather than actual lo mein noodles. The highlight was hunan beef. It was great. Tiny portion like i said before, but it actually was spicy and great flavor. Finally, even the steamed rice tasted off. It tasted day old like it was ready to be used for fried rice, which was much, much better. Overall, I was not happy and definitely would not order...
