Jade Garden is the best Chinese food in town. They sever dishes by order fast and fresh, no stale buffet food. Yes it is a staple of KU students but also of the Asian community in Lawrence, as well as the working crowd at lunch. There vast menu of Chinese, Tai, Korean, and Japanese food offers anything you can imagine for lunch or dinner. The food comes out fast and fresh and in really good portions. They have remodeled the inside and changed their flatware to make it nicer, as well as adding even more items to the menu. Everyone I know has been a big fan of Jade Garden and with the improvements they are making it is only getting better. Fast Friendly and Affordable.

Short of food poisoning, I can't think of a worse dining experience. This is not only the worst Chinese food I've had in Lawrence, it's the second worst Chinese food I've ever had (The worst was in Ashland, Oregon, where they put White Gravy on everything).
But the food here is greasy and disgusting. Meat entrees are short on meat (if you are a meat eater), and the vegetables in the vege dishes were not fresh. Everything is poorly prepared, they use way too much salt, and really have no clue what Chinese Food is actually even like. EVEN THEIR WHITE RICE SUCKS.
They don't charge much for their food, so this is probably why they are popular with the student crowd, but even if this food was free, you'd still be getting ripped off. I vote three Garbage Cans and an air-sickness bag for this place.

You can substitute tofu for almost any meat, and the 'All Day Combination' prices are great. If you're like me and don't see a big difference between beef tails and beef butt, belly or shoulder, this is a really cheap, convenient vegetarian option, and the delivery is always fast.

Probably the worst Chinese food I have ever had...I know that this restaurant is a staple among KU students.
Jade uses what can only be described as Chicken toes and Beef tails for most of their meat. Avoid, avoid, avoid....T.Yaki is a much better joint for Chinese delivery.
YES, it is true! You do get a lot of food for the money...but most of what you get is junk and only edible during a night of over drinking.
