THE JADE in Wiltshire

Food was great . Service very friendly. Atmosphere is a bit dull. But I would recommend for a small dinner night.

Lovely delicious food...must have.

Great service, food lovely and great value too

Had a fantastic meal during stay in Salisbury. The vegetarian options were superb and very tasty! Service was excellent. Thank you!

Disappointing after all the online hype. Soup was salty, curtains needed a wash and wine not great. Sorry!

Proper old school Chinese restaurant, unpretentious, great food, fresh, well cooked, fast and pleasant service, reasonable price, add your own service tip, this place is the most enjoyable we have eaten at in Salisbury, leaves a warm glow!

Food excellent, hot and very tasty. Plenty of choice on the menu. Price about normal, excluding drinks. Staff attentive to your needs but you dont feel rushed. Overall a brilliant night out.

Seems like well maintained family-run traditional Chinese restaurant. Just a few minutes walk from Salisbury Cathedral. There are a lot of choices of Chinese dishes and mini bar available as well. Place is warm and food is nice. Order take away and service was fast. Dishes are reasonably priced.

Took mum here for a birthday meal this evening. I had the best experience ever ,food was amazing service was well professional and great prices. Even mum enjoyed herself and she is a fussy eatter. Will definitely be going back.

The food was superb. Each dish had its own authenic flavours. The portion size was good too. We both shared a seafood platter for starters. Excellent choice. Plenty to eat, including prawns, squid, scallops. Our mains were great. The fish in sweet and sour sauce was a treat. A very delicate sauce. Highly recommended and very good value.

Recommended by a post man who said it is the best Chinese restaurant in Salisbury. Was very good food. Decor was nice too. Comfortable seating. Waitress was very friendly and quick. Would recommend!

Excellent good quality of service and excellent food

Great restaurant, good service, good prices

Massively over priced - this is Salisbury, not London. £185 for a set menu for three with two Tiger beers and two soft drinks is outrageous. We waited 30 minutes for starters and then 30 minutes more for our next course. I’m nearly two hours, they only managed d to serve three of the four courses. When we eventually got to the end it of the meal, they bought out the food but I think the portion sizes were exactly the same as the table opposite who were a table for two, as they were for us as a table for three. Absolute rip off and I feel ashamed at not telling them on the night that I thought the overall experience was terrible.

We went to this restaurant because of the previous reviews and we were not disappointed. As per other comments, the restaurant was like going back in time, but the food and service were first class. We all thought the food was extremely tasty and we would definitely go back and I thoroughly recommend a visit.

Best meal I have had in this area, staff polite and food was excellent

A really pleasant dinner served at 5.15pm, in The Jade Restaurant. Great service and as the proprietor was there, I enjoyed a very nice conversation with her.

Excellent service quality food very friendly family run business!

When you mention the Jade Restaurant on Exeter Street to the Salisbury Locals (albeit of a certain age, Like myself!) you hear great stories of many a night spent simply enjoying the best Chinese Food Salisbury has to offer. It’s reasonably priced too at approximately £30 a head for a good few plates you really can’t complain. That coupled with great service, We were left very happy. Unfortunately, I didn’t catch the name of the server/waitress but she was brilliant. Not making us wait too long between courses and checking in between for refreshments. Every time I step foot into here it’s like going back in time. The decor is truly like stepping back into the 90s and I feel as if I can remember when times were simpler. I almost felt as if I should have my old Capri parked outside. I would thoroughly recommend coming here and please don’t be put off by the decor.

The food and service were excellent which is important. The staff were lovely. The restaurant lacked atmosphere when we went, possibly a Thursday night was a little quiet. The entrance looked tired, in need of an update to be a bit more enticing and make the restaurant stand out.

Food was slow due to low staff numbers and it was very warm. AC not turned on.. food was excellent and staff did their best to keep the service going.

As it's a little out of the centre of town The Jade may be only known to the locals but it is worth finding. The previous owner was renowned for his serving and deboning of fresh sea bass in ginger and soya sauce and the new owners have carried on the same menu and service. Eating at The Jade is like a trip back to the Chinese restaurants when they first arrived. Horse shoe seating, Chinese bhuddas with Green and Red decor. The one thing which could be improved is the decor from the outside and entrance door. It does not look welcoming at all, however don't let that out you off the food and service inside. Worth seeking..and make sure you ask for the fish of the day.

Having an audit in Salisbury area this week, first time to visit this takeaway, ordered chicken sweetcorn soup, salt and pepper spareribs, king prawns ginger and spring onions, special fried rice. Overall tasted okay, spareribs were good because not so many bones, all soft bones n meats 😋 special fried rice was nothing special this time but the fried rice texture was nice n dry. This dinner costed me £26.70, portions of each item were okay, so final verdict was value for money. Give it a try. 😊

Not been for years and after tonight I must say food is cooked to perfection! Can’t rate it enough! We had the seafood platter, pork and seafood dumplings, hot and sour soup and crispy duck. We will be going more often! Thank you again for a wonderful meal!

Visited the Jade quite a few times now and what a beautiful little restaurant. The staff are so friendly make you feel very welcome but most importantly is the food wow we’ve never had a bad meal. We always try a different dish each time we go and are never disappointed. Highly recommended 100% must give it a try

We loved the fried rice and fried noodles. We are the only customers on Thursday evening. It was lovely to chat with the restaurant owner. Cars can be parked on the road, after 6pm was free.

Please don’t let the building or decor put you off. The food in this place is stunning! Best Chinese meal we have had for a long time. We personally recommend the stay chick, Singapore fried rice and crispy chilli beef. Would be 5/5 stars but the decor could do with updating. If it was based on food alone it would be 5/5. Don’t let the appearance put you off. Enjoy it!

Food very tasty at a good price

First time there every thing was excellent

Love this place. Homely, quiet, good food for a decent price.

Love this place. Been eating there every few months for years. Holley, quiet, good food decent price non corporate.

Great tasting food, relaxed atmosphere. Portion sizes were large. Overall a great experience. I would definitely recommend for a meal out.

We ordered a set meal for two, this consisted of duck and pancakes to start with, 4 main course dishes and egg fried rice. The food was very good, however the portions were so small and we were still hungry at the end of the meal. The waitress was delightful and is a credit to the restaurant.

We enjoyed this little gem of a restaurant. The food was good and the staff friendly. We will be going back very soon, its just a matter off how soon.

Amazing food, something for everyone. Great with listening to requests, great atmosphere, lovely people and overall amazing restaurant :)

Good to see this local restaurant busy again. As excellent as ever. I always enjoy coming to The Jade when visiting my home town from London. Always friendly service and the food is excellent. Last visit was 24th February 2023. Still as good as ever.

My husband and I stayed in Salisbury for 2 nights and booked this restaurant as we love Chinese food. It is a family run restaurant and the young lady and her mum are most charming. The food is really delicious- top-notch and one of the best Chinese meals we have eaten. We chose a set meal and it was wonderful. We will definitely return when next in the area.

We came to the jade on friday for my husbands birthday,wow the food was amazing i had belly pork it was out of this world no fat and cooked to perfect.a fantastic resturant with very friendly staff we will return next time we are in sailsbury

I had beef with ginger and spring onions, barbecue ribs and Singapore noodles. Everything was delicious and freshly prepared and the staff were very polite. It took 10mins maximum to cook , I will return to this restaurant again.

The food we had was all great; the duck pancakes stood out particularly, they can be quite fatty but this was very crispy, a good amount of duck too. Staff were very friendly and efficient. I have eaten in the restaurant and had the takeaway (collection only) it never disappoints!

Food is a little bland, but staff were extremely friendly and helpful

Just passing by this evening and chanced upon this gem. Superb food freshly cooked and highly recommended. Best in Salisbury for me.

We came here as we were in Salisbury for just the afternoon having travelled to come to Stone Henge and then staying out of Salisbury but finding time to come into salisbury so googled for a chinese and found this one had great reviews. We were a little surprised when we did find it as it looks very tired from the outside but that is just the building. We went in and asked had they got a table for 2 and bearing in mind there was no one in, they said have you booked. We said no and she went to go and check and were told yes and seated us. We did notice that there was a musty smell slightly and it did look a little tired inside too. We were given the menu and we ordered. We were sat waiting and 2 more people came in who had booked and were shown to a table and then by the time we were finishing there was a family of 4 who had also booked. So not quite sure how long they thought we were intending to stay that evening or whether they had a lot more people soon to be appearing to come for booked tables or what but 6 people in a restaurant is not what I would call busy and be needing to check if you can take 2 more! The food was ok and not quite sure about the rav reviews I am afraid. It was average only. We had 2 mains & 2 rice and a portion prawn crackers and no drinks. It came to £29.30. We didnt think that this was particularly good value frankly.

Food was great i just felt the decor could do with updating

It has delicious food and a nice atmosphere. The service was good and the duck pancakes were a particular highlight. They do takeaway on collection and are closed on Sundays.

Service was good and they had Chinese beer but the food was bad not even close to Chinese

When we came to live near Salisbury 20 years ago there was only one good Chinese restaurant in Salisbury. Unfortunately this closed down over 10 years ago. We tried the Jade restaurant at that time but found the food to be poor and the tables cramped and never went back. Since then the Jade restaurant has closed and reopened under new ownership. A recent Google search highlighted good reports and we decided to have dinner there the other evening. We lived in Hong Kong for many years and are quite critical of the quality of Chinese food served in Chinese restaurants in the UK. We were pleasantly surprised by the good quality of the food we ate the other night. Other than the sweet and sour pork which had obviously been prepared well beforehand, was dry and somewhat overcooked, all the remaining dishes were excellent. Service was very good though there was only one other table occupied in the restaurant. There was, however, a steady stream of takeaway customers coming into the restaurant which would indicate a responsive customer base.

Best food we had while in the UK. Chi thank you for your tea as well. Beautiful food, great caring staff.

What a great find this was. Food was brilliant - they even accommodated my mock meat request which was not on the menu. The lady who runs this restaurant also supports orphaned children in Vietnam. So round up your bill as a donation is my suggestion ;)

I loved the customer service as the lady working there was very polite. The food was delicious and it was worth the money for the quality food.it I definitely recommend it for anybody wanting to find a place to eat in salisbury which serves lovely food

Ive tried most places that serve Chinese food in Salisbury and The Jade is easily the best. The staff are very friendly, welcoming and polite. Ive eaten here and had takeaways a number of times over the past few years and its has been great every time. So much so that Ive felt moved to write a review!

Hi recommend, friendly, excellent service and good quality food 👌

Had dinner with a friend and the food was amazing. It was busy but the staff were helpful, polite and friendly. I have some food allergies and they were very accommodating. Definitely recommend

Fantastic takeaway, best Chinese in Salisbury!

Popped in for a quick dinner whilst in the town working. From the moment we walked in we knew we had made a terrific choice. The warm welcome, extensive menu and authentic oriental decor and music, coupled with the excellent food, seamlessly transported us to...

Lovely family restaurant with a great menu. Highly recommended

Excellent Chinese best we're had for a while

Fabulous meal, and very accommodating. We called with 5 minutes warning after another restaurant let us down (at 5.45pm!), we were welcomed. The food was fantastic and the service was impeccable. Can't wait to return.

Very poor tiny portions and more expensive than menu price - avoid

Had a takeaway from here and wish I'd not bothered. Do yourself a favour and go to any other Chinese takeaway(except classic aroma, Wong's is my favourite)The only positive was that the prawn crackers were crispy. Measley and mostly bland portions. The sweet and sour had little meat and bulked out excessively with vegetables. The deep fried chili beef had no sauce to speak of, was bland, no chili heat at all and was so thin I'm not sure there was any room for any beef. The special fried noodles had a weird burnt flavour that masked any others that might have been in it. And for the privilege of this meal, it cost an extra 20% of what I'd normally pay.

Excellent service and food is very good.

The most enjoyable & delicious meal served by a genuinely friendly and knowledgeable staff member. The Seafood was sensational. Cooked freshly and tasting exquisite. Everything about this evening at The Jade was wonderful. Highly recommended.

Fab fab fab really great food and service. The staff were amazing very friendly and helpful. I wil recommend this restaurant to all my friends

Not bin to the Jade in a long time, went on Tuesday food was excellent. The service was first class. Can't wait to go back.

Really delicious food and delightful service. The best ribs I've ever had.

Fantastic meal, lovely atmosphere, great service

Wow what a fab find! A group of twelve of us ate at the Jade for my Birthday. We had asked in advance for a set meal letting them decide on the dishes it was fantastic from start to finish, particularly the soft shell crab...

Best Chinese food I've ever had!

I hadn't been to The Jade in 20ish years until tonight as I had moved away. Took my daughter out for her birthday with some other family and it was just as good as I remembered it! Outstanding and personal service, incredible food in a very relaxed atmosphere. I was so pleased. Absolutely top notch establishment.

Away from the main area for shops and restaurants, this place probably gets a bit overlooked. It's near the cathedral and has a lovely light and airy, peaceful and calm atmosphere. Nice food at reasonable prices. Carlsberg £4 a pint. Worth going to.

The Jade on Exeter Street has a lovely calm atmosphere and serves delicious food. Staff and service are excellent and it's very reasonably priced. A real find!

Lovely meal,Great service and food excellent

An absolute diamond of a Chinese restaurant. Picked on the basis of the reviews on here. Not disappointed at all. A lovely small family run restaurant, the type we all know and love the breadth of the country. We visited on a Tuesday after a...

My wife and I had set meal for two. Large portions. House red great value as well. Simply fantastic. Go you will love it

Very fresh and nicely cooked starters: salt and pepper ribs, seaweed, soft-shelled crab and the crispy garlic monkfish dim sum. Friendly, helpful owner served everything with a big smile and a chat. Main courses were also very enjoyable, but perhaps more ‘normal’: singapore spicy noodles,...

Food was soo yummy, service was superb and it was just a nice cute little family run business. Would recommend 👌

Never been here before even though I’ve lived in Salisbury for 24 yrs. we had an amazing dinner I took my husband here for a treat. The service was second to none, the food was extremely good and well priced. Very friendly staff. The menu...

Really good quality, the price is very fair. I really love the decor of the restaurant and the staff are friendly. Top marks from me! 😀

We had arrived from London and were hungry, so decided to get take away. The food was ready exactly when we were told it would be so that was a good sign. When we got back to our accommodation and served it out it was...

Good restaurant with good service. The food was good but a bit disappointing.

Our first visit and we will definitely be back. Food was lovely. Staff are friendly and polite.

Some of the best Chinese food we've ever had! This is a very small tucked away family-run restaurant, with really amazing food and we were very impressed with how prompt and polite the waitress was. Definitely a great find and would love to go back...

Only had takeaway. Great food, usual portion sizes in the plastic containers rather than the aluminium with paper lids so no leakage.

The tastiest Chinese restaurant we've been to. Very friendly with efficient service and the most succulent prawn dish. Covid safe. Portions very generous. Loved it all! Thank you!

Incredible! The best Chinese food best I've had in such a long time. The crispy beef blew my mind. Please go support this amazing restaurant!

Came here with the family for dinner the night before my birthday and it was just fantastic. A great restaurant, has been for decades, you are always guaranteed a great meal and great service here.

We have struggled to find a good Chinese in Salisbury and here it is! Lovely food, good sized portions and ready on time. Just wish they delivered!

The Jade consistently provides excellent service and excellent food. Would always recommend this restaurant beit dine in or take away. A real gem in the beautiful city of Salisbury. Do not let the unfortunate cycle lanes put you off !!!!

The Jade has been the best Chinese restaurant for years and continues to be so. The seafood specialities are excellent, all the food is cooked to perfection. Highly recommended.

All I can say is that these dishes are not too oily as they look but fresh dishes! Sorry for the take-away images but this is all I could do during the lockdown, staying in a hotel for a work.

Just had a meal from here after reading great reviews.Well unfortunately I do not feel the same .prawn balls were chewy and too much batter chips were undercooked and basically the portions were tiny,which I am surprised about as I read a review saying large portions.Not a great meal

Nice atmosphere, lovely food. Polite staff💜

This is by far the BEST Chinese Restaurant in Salisbury. I so wish they had a delivery service as if it hands down the most authentic, tastiest and freshest Chinese food. I would recommend the Chilli beef, not packed out with veg, you get exactly what you pay for. The prawn balls are full size king prawns in a light tempura batter. And the Ribs! Yum yum yum!

Dos de nosotros cenamos aquí. Para empezar, compartimos pato crujiente con panqueques, luego elegí carne de res con chile desmenuzado y frito y mi amigo comió pollo agridulce al estilo Hong Kong con arroz. Todos estaban deliciosos y el servicio fue excelente y amable. Estaremos de vuelta.

Finally pulled finger out and visited. My partner used to go before we had kids, 15+ years ago. She could not fault any of the food, describing everything as 10/10. The food as incredibly good, tasty.

Ordered fish dishes and received strips of rubbery 'fish' that was barely recognisable...

Visité este restaurante anoche con amigos y todos estamos de acuerdo en que fue la comida china más sabrosa que hemos tenido. La camarera era tan dulce y no podía hacer más por nosotros. Las comidas, Dios mío, todo llegó muy caliente y se mantuvo caliente hasta el final. Nunca antes había experimentado esto con una comida en un restaurante. Tuve los crujientes fideos mixtos con una hermosa salsa satay picante. Mi marido tenía fideos picantes, langostinos al curry (fabulosa salsa cremosa de coco picante para morirse) crujiente de panceta con hoisin. Los amigos comieron arroz mixto, costillas y cremoso pollo ártico y, por último, pero no menos importante, el otro amigo comió pollo al limón con fideos picantes. No puedo alabar este restaurante lo suficiente. Vivimos a tres horas pero volveremos. Gracias

Superb food and friendly staff. Excellent service. Had a wonderful meal.

Was in Salisbury for a couple of nights and due to the "Dine out to help out" promotion going on it was difficult to find somewhere to eat. Didn't particularly want to have Chinese tonight but very glad I came across The Jade. Pretty non descript building but the food was up there with the best I've had in London.

Best Chinese food we've had in a long time, and we were surprised the bill had Rishi's contribution, since we didn't see any mention on the website. Excellent.
