Although the place isn't huge and they've raised the prices, the Chinese-style dishes (or, to be fair, adapted to our tastes) are very good, especially the baozi, which not all Chinese restaurants have, the lemon-fried chicken, their corn and chicken soup (excellent especially when you have a cold, piping hot, just how I like it), the mushroom and bamboo daufu, the duck or ravioli, and the spring rolls. Truly, very good. The takeout service is also very good, being quick and efficient; you usually never have to wait more than 15-20 minutes, and the portions are truly worth it.
Unfortunately, having only tried their "Japanese" offerings once and for a few items, I can't give a definitive opinion. I highly recommend this restaurant; to date, I haven't found anything better, not even when traveling around Bologna and Ferrara. The only thing I'd like to see is some more "typical and traditional" dishes, but I'm afraid many Italians might not appreciate them. One last thing: how the heck do you tie takeout bags like that? Every time I pass by, I try to look at everything, but nothing. The ladies are too quick to seal everything, and when I unwrap them, even filming it, I struggle to tie the knots again. Hahaha!

The food has always been good, but it's gotten a lot better in the last year, and they've added new dishes. Prices are normal. Excellent, never had a bad experience.
Dated place, fried food not crispy and full of oil, good uramaki, service not fast but courteous.

Tried the new menus, with many new features and new dishes...and as always everything was good for me. There is no other Chinese/Japanese restaurant that satisfies me like the Jade Garden. I'm happy that it is and that they continue for many more years to come.

I tried this restaurant a month ago. I'd honestly only ever gone to Kyoto before, but I've really reconsidered this one. The selection of cooked and raw foods (especially at dinner) is incredibly good.
The place is tiny, and they mostly do takeout, but for a casual evening with your partner, it's great.
The service can seem slow because you might see four people sitting at the tables and the food takes a while to arrive, but as I said before, they do a lot of takeout, so they have to prepare for those you don't see in the restaurant.
I went back a second time and tried the boat (something I hadn't seen in years), and the quality was also top-notch.
They also have a card for regular customers: for every drink you order, you earn a certain number of points, and for every 50, 100, 150, etc. points, you get free drinks/beers and even €10 and €20 vouchers.
Now I'm a regular!
