Green Jade — Restaurant in Town of Cheektowaga

Updated review. Have tried them a few times in the last year or so. Seems like ownership/staff has changed. Food used to be generally above average for fast food chinese, now it's definitely just average or below. Chicken lo mein had almost no discernible chicken or veggies. The noodles were chopped up, and the chicken and veggies that were provided were unappetizing. The lo mein used to have much better flavor too, now it's just blah.

Chicken with garlic sauce also was a favorite, and it's definitely changed. Sauce used to be flavorfull and didn't have that weird gelatenous and oily consistency many places have. Well now is has it. It also had a funny taste to it initially was eventually overpowered by the garlic (I assume).

Even the egg rolls seem different. They were above average, and are not very good.

Overall the freshness and quality that were once there are gone. I wish I knew where the old owners...

Under new ownership! I ordered a General Tso's Chicken combo with lo-mein instead of rice, and Wonton soup and Shrimp Fried Rice. Everything was okay accept for the soup. I ordered a pint which came with 5 large noodles, however, there was not enough broth to cover the 3 noodles I served myself, or for the remaining 2 noodles left in the container. The meat inside was tough, and the soup had an off taste to it over all. I never before have had a wonton soup that I didn't like... until now. (The remaining soup was thrown out.) I miss how the food tasted under the previous ownership. I also ordered a side of hot oil that they forgot to give me. (I called to let them know, and they offered me a 10% discount on my next visit, however, I am not sure that I will be rushing back anytime soon.) Not a very good first...

Green Jade is my go-to Chinese takeout place. I used to go to Great Wok but after a bad experience (very grey chicken and broccoli instead of the shrimp dish I ordered) I decided to try Green Jade - always saw it driving by but never tried it. I was so glad I did after years of the stuff from GW Green Jade is amazing! The food is always fresh and tasty. My usual favorites are Singapore Mei Fun, House Lo mein, Beef and Shrimp w/ Garlic sauce, Chicken and broccoli, but almost anything I try is very good. I've only tried a few of the Japanese items and they were also very good - addicted to ika maru!! The staff are always very sweet and friendly. Like most take-out places they always offer extra sauces but they aren't needed because everthing is fine as is though I usually take the plum sauce and mustard...
