The Jade Palace in Dumfries & Galloway

Was camping nearby and found this takeaway on Google. Really pleasantly surprised - a little gem! The best sweet and sour chicken balls I’ve ever had, everything was really hot and fresh. The curry sauce tasted a little bit like Katsu curry which isn’t a bad thing - delicious! And it was very reasonably priced too! Would definitely return if I was in the area. :)

Absolutely beautiful food, best Chinese in the Galloway. Cantonese style char siu fried rice may be one of the best dishes I've ever eaten, and not just out of Chinese food, so soft and aromatic

Don't get me wrong, I know Chinese isn't health food. But this was just horrible. Chicken chow mein swimming in grease, the curry sauce had been put in the bag on it's side so it leaked out over everything, through the bag and all over my car floor. The spring roll had so much grease it disintegrated the paper bag and the bottom fell out of the bag as well as the roll. What was left of the curry sauce was tasty, what I managed to save of the spring roll was OK. I'm never going back.

Quite frankly.....awful. Cheap chicken leg meat and weak sauce in Kung Po. Second time ordering the same, and both now confirm. Cheap ingredients, inexperienced chef and result is very poor quality. Good luck!

Usually have beef curry. Which is ace but decided for a change and got sweet and sour chicken and a spring roll. Absolutely delicious!! Might even have another on Sunday 😀 Such welcoming staff and they always smile and deliver to your car if needed. Our favourite.

Me and my boyfriend went here for chips and curry sauce 2 portions. Both violently sick up all night extremely ill !! Rather disappointing as I used to eat out at this place often. Unfortunately wouldn’t rate any more than half a star.

Son ordered chicken fried rice, he said it was good, but his girlfriend had crispy chicken noodles, and could not eat it, as it was swinging in sauce....my son then ordered her a chicken fried rice and she loved it, chicken well done and rice perfect... Remember has everyone different tastes, and these two like dry dishes.

Got a take out for the first time, ready in jig time. Very tasty and freshly made. Would definitely go back.

Great tasting food at a very reasonable price. Really enjoyable and covid safe delivery. Portions are ample.

During lockdown we have had 3 takeaways.All excellent especially shredded chicken in a special sauce.So tasty,great portions and value for money.

Great food and service.Highly recommend.Food is always fast and good quality. Go there on a monthly basis.

If you want a good chicken curry go to the Chinese down the road from this place. I opened the container and it looked like gravy and full of oil, I had to throw it away after one forkful, it was way too salty! Change your curry sauce! It’s disgusting!

Without a doubt the worst Chinese food we have ever had! Other Chinese at top of road had an hour wait and now it makes sense why! Really really poor for the price! Lemon chicken tasted and smelt like toilet cleaner, chips must have been at least 2 days old and the satay dish... well haven’t a clue what that actually tasted like. Very disappointing!

Stayed on caravan site and thought we would treat ourselves to a Chinese takeaway king prawn and chicken curry never seen Chinese curry sauce so dark and salty. King prawns more like shrimps but couldn’t eat the food because of the saltiness.chicken chow mein also full of soy sauce so very salty also inedible. Salt and pepper ribs well again fat too much salt. Will Never go back waste of our good money

Staying in Sandy hills so ordered meal at 5:30 over the phone which was Cantonese crispy duck with cashew nuts & a large spring roll, to pick up for 7:30. Got there and had to wait an extra 15 minutes for food, considering I rang 2 hours in advance. Got back to lodge and plated Chinese, totally wrong order! The sauce was bland and more gravy like, it contained chicken, tomatoes and no cashew nuts, the spring roll was literally packed with bean sprouts and one baby prawn. Would NOT recommend and will not be returning. We’ve been a few times past visits and normally okay.. this time disappointing!

Decided to get a take away meal for a group celebrating a birthday party, I ordered chilli chicken, it was cold and inedible. The sauce was almost pure vinegar, the meal was a congealed mess, it was the worst Chinese meal I have had. The majority of everyone's food was put in the bin, wished I had opted for fish and chips from the local fish and chip shop. I would never eat food from the Jade Palace again.

Great affordable Chinese with brilliant friendly staff. Charlie always there and happy to serve you ( less so at lunchtime : ) - love this restaurant always busy at the weekend so book. Inside is like going back in time but the food makes it all worthwhile.Thanks Charlie

The Jade is a CD institution. The food and the flavours are always first class and the fact that the place is usually always busy with takeaways and sit down meals is testament to this. Ok it’s not the fanciest of places, the carpet could do with a good shampoo and the toilets are horrible (I try to avoid having to go.....) but the food is fabulous.Never had a bad meal there in 20+ years. Always excellent banter and friendly faces. Thank you Charlie and team.

Came for dinner on a Friday night. Inside the restaurant is very dated but don't let this put you off. The food was all lovely especially the seaweed and crispy duck! Would definitely return.

On holiday in Castle Douglas and decided to have our usual Chinese takeaway Chicken Maryland from the Jade Palace......huge mistake. This is the worst Chicken Maryland we have ever tasted. The batter was soggy, the "bacon" was artificial and the chicken not nice and was all binned except for the chips, so we ended up with the very expensive portion of chips which were average. We certainly would never use this place again. The only redeeming feature was that we didn't have long to wait for the order.

For those who enjoy good Chinese food I would definitely not recommend this place - I would describe the food as adequate at best. On the positive side, the staff were friendly and it wasn't expensive, although the decor could do with some TLC.

Large restaurant with take away thankfully, always busy with takeaways as the restaurant urgently needs a refurbish. The menu doesn’t change sadly but the staff are very friendly and great with kids.

Great restaurant but not from first viewing. Needs a good redecoration but the food is superb.

I enjoy visiting every Friday for a feast of chicken wings and wontons. The indigestion that I get afterwards is totally worth it and probably unrelated. Thanks Jade see you Friday, your No1 custumer JR.

Lunch for 5 people, three courses each and soft drinks for under £40. Food was absolutely amazing too. Outstanding.

very tasty and enjoyable meal. lots of choice, well cooked and served. prices were very reasonable and I can definitely recommend it. visited twice in one week

This si a nice place to eat. I however just ordered a take away. The food quality was fine. I would go back.

Last week working near this town but came again tonight on banquet night..... not for the faint hatred lol .. iv has the same two people and I’m on my own lol ......... the staff are great and to be faire good crack !!!! Fully recommend this and I love curry

Collected my order and drove all the way home to find I’d been give the wrong food. Phoned up and they told me I needed to come back in to swap it. When I arrived I got no apology and was told that it was my fault for not checking I had the correct food in the bag! Not impressed! Poor service!!

We’ve been using this Chinese for almost 30 years. Mainly for carry outs. The food is great. Don’t be put off by the decor. Busy venue with diners and take away/carry out customers.

I ordered a takeaway to collect 45 minutes later. When my son arrived he told them who he was and asked for other food. It wasn't ready. After waiting 20 minutes he called me to say the food still hadn't come out. My husband called to find out the problem. First he was told it was late as they were so busy and then the waitress stared arguing/telling off a colleague saying she had called out our order twice. My son didn't hear them call at all and doesn't believe they did as he was waiting anxiously for the food! My husband was gobsmacked at the lack of customer service and they way the staff talked to a colleague whilst he could hear. No apologies at all. One dish was wrong when opened so my husband called again and spoke to manager this time. He was at least apologetic. Although the manager was decent we are not confident about returning now.

We visited the Jade Palace after reviewing Trip. There were many good and excellent reviews, I have to wonder, where do these people normally eat that their standards are so low?

We ate here twice in our week's stay. Wide choice on the menu. Service was fast and friendly. Good value.

Ordered a takeaway on Saturday for the first time. Was advised it would be an hour as it was a £70 order. Arrived to collect it and the restaurant had lots of people waiting for takeaway in the doorway. It was actually 2 hours in...

The full restraint is needing an up grad what we had was ok toilet had a power extension runing up the wall in gents to power light my wife said ladies toilets are needing upgraded

We visited this Chinese restaurant with family recently. 8 people were in our party. The staff pushed 2 tables together for us and it was quite cramped as it was very busy. Bottom line is that the food was delicious, my steak was cooked to...

We were in Castle Douglas on a damp Sunday night and luckily spotted The Jade Palace (at around 6-30pm). A bit of a 'hot spot', actually, with most tables occupied and a constantly changing group of people waiting for takeaways. Their business is certainly good...

With lunch at £5.10 for 3 courses we thought we couldn't lose but sadly the food didn't live up to expectations, the chicken & mushroom soup was bland & tasteless, the accompanying roll was lovely though, the main courses beef curry & chicken Chow Mein were uninspiring & the apple tart & cream tasty but tiny. The restaurant itself was dull, dark & dreary in desperate need of a makeover, the staff unfriendly & service was rushed, as frequent visitors to this type of Chinese Restaurant I'm afraid we won't be back

Have had many lunches here over the years and still think that it offers good value for a three course lunch - less than £5 per head. Spare ribs are a whopping £1 more. Haven't been in the evening so can't comment on that. All appears clean but rather dated decor. However, midday value is very good.

While we were waiting for our food you could hear the staff talking about us and how we were dressed and saying some awful things about me and my friend and the food was disgusting

Always go here for a lunch when in the area. Can't fault the place good service and food pretty good

Good Food served hot and quick by pleasant staff.Excellent 3 course lunch for the money. Clean but dated could do with a refurbishment but not put off from visiting again as food was top notch..

We ate as a party of 7 last weekend. Have been coming here for years and never been let down. The food quality is always top notch. The decor is very dated and in need of some TLC but the staff are always friendly and you are made to feel welcome.

For a Chinese takeaway 'fast food' establishment, every visit we have paid to Jade Palace once to sit down a a few times for take out, we have encountered the most unbelievably ridiculous waiting times. The restaurant is in major need of a new carpet, the current floor is in a dreadful state and a lick of paint would work wonders to brighten the place. The 'waiting area' for take aways definitely needs improved/reorganised rather than having a constant crowd gathered around the front door providing spectators for people trying to enjoy a quiet sit down meal. The food in Jade Palace is probably the best of very limited options for Chinese in the Castle Douglas area, but the hour waiting times for a take away, (on a good night!) and lack of organisation in the restaurant is a major off put. If you're in a hurry for a meal/take out then this is not the place for you.

Had a lovely takeaway from here on Friday evening after a long drive. Everything we ordered was lovely and reasonable prices. Worth a visit

When I was a kid (sometime in the 1970s), we went to a Chinese restaurant while on holiday. It was lacquered dark red (like a toffee apple). It had a Superser heater and a built-in aquarium along one wall. This could have been it. It wasn't - as the one of my childhood was not in southwest Scotland. But it was so similar. I was so depressed, I lost my appetite.

carry out on 16th march was awful inedible both duck with ginger and pineapple and chicken curry were awful never even made it on to plate straight in to bin terrible was a waste of money no pineapple at all in duck dish as for curry it appeared to be made with bisto never seen a Chinese curry like this ever

Stopped off with friends for food, wasn't sure what to expect as the exterior is a little shabby & the decor somewhat dated but don't let that put you off, the service was quick, food was amazing, tasty, hot, well presented & plenty of it, my only 2 observations were the young English guy who served us could do with developing a personality as he just wouldn't engage in conversation & despite ordering sweet & sour I'm absolutely certain I was given chicken, due to the size, taste & texture, I didn't question it as I was incredibly hungry & what I had been served was delicious, 4 of us with a main course & rice each plus a drink & it came to £44, real bargain, worth every penny.

I follow a vegan diet and the staff were very helpful in letting me know what I could and couldn't have. I ended up having mixed veg and cashew nuts and fried rice with no egg. My meal was gorgeous and so fresh, as were my family members. The portions were great and the price was amazing. The place could do with a make over but I couldn't fault the food. I'd definitely visit again. Thanks. :-)

The Jade Place Food is reasonable some dishes are a little bland but the service leaves a lot to be desired and the decor needs updating from it's1960's style. However it is the only sit down Chinese Restaurant in the CD area.

We've visited and eaten here twice. The first time was four years ago and recently, last Friday. We were delighted to discover that a) it was still there, in the same place b) the food was better than we remembered and c) it was more popular than the last time, with people from a variety of age-groups!We had a plate of their Special Rice Noodles; Special Fried Rice and Honey Chilli BBQ Ribs washed down with a pot of Chinese tea. The ribs were succulent and delicious; the noodles were YUM, the rice was good although they could consider doing away with the sauce they pour on top of it as it tends to take over.The staff were very friendly and smiley. The place was chock a block full till around 8pm post when there were loads of people coming in for takeaways - some carrying boxes full of food! The Scotland vs England match was on that night, I think!We shall go back for more before our visit to Castle Douglas gets over next week.

Since our last visit they have increased the cost of lunch by 20p they could have increased it by 5 or 6 times that and it would be still great value for money,it's basic ,no frills Chinese food ,they have captured that 1970's feel because I would very much doubt if the decor has changed or indeed been refreshed in 40 years however don't let that put you off,great value freshly cooked food served by friendly staff.

We were passing through Castle Douglas on our way to the ferry but needed some food and fast as we only had 45 minutes. Have to say the staff were very accommodating and served us a lovely meal within the 45 minutes allowing us to catch our bus. All food was lovely as we had a range of European and Chinese dishes. Prices were also very reasonable and portion size was also good. Seemed to be quite a busy place for it being a Sunday afternoon and i would recommend eating here if you are in the area

Went on a Saturday lunchtime after reading about the now £5.10 (was 4.90) lunch menu. Couldn't believe the quality of the ribs. The chow mein was simply the best I ever had. My 3 year old, a fussy eater, picked away at most things and ate most of what was put in front of her, the wife and I were shocked. £23 for three 3 course meals with drinks was exceptional value. We returned the next night to get the full menu. The wife had squid to start which was absolutely outstanding. I had garlic chilli ribs which were also delicious. I couldn't not get chow mein although the large menu did have me swaying from dish to dish. The wife had sizzling garlic chicken which was really tasty. £34 for 3 starters, 2 mains and a fruit salad with drinks again ridiculous value. I dare say this restaurant will have me visiting the area again as unfortunately I don't stay near. It was packed with take aways on the Sunday, the man working in the restaurant, Charlie, seems to have a great relationship with locals and no wonder with the food he provides. We shall return!

A 3 course lunch special for under £6 is unbeatable. Lovely hot food served by very pleasant staff. Only downside is restaurant closes at 2 pm sharp.

Enjoyed it so much came back again The food is excellent.Staff very helpful.All round great experience.

~visiting Castle Douglas our family dined here on Sunday Evening the staff were very good food was excellent and restaurant spotlessly clean. Lots of laughter with owner who has a cousin in Perth where we had travelled from

As the title says. Restaurant service at take-away prices with the best tasting dishes. the sizzling chicken was to die for. Our two boys rated it too. Excellent.

Decided later on one night we would get a take away on our way home. We live about 10 minutes from the town but were quite regular customers. When we got home we dished the food and everything looked, smelled and tasted lovely and then on my third mouthful..... GLASS!!! I actually had glass in my food! Informed the owner about this and he brought a replacement which understandably I couldn't eat it. Safe to say we won't be back!! Everyone just keep a look out especially if your kids are having something because you never know what you might find!!!

had lunch here on way to our weekend away. lunch time menu great value for money. choices good and generous portions. would recommend to family and friends to visit here.

My first impressions of The Jade Palace were not great to be honest, the place is very run down and very dark, it certainly needs some TLC. Thankfully the food and service more then make up for the terrible decor. The lunchtime 3 course menu is fantastic value at £4.90 and the portions are a good size, my chow mien was one of the best I've ever had. The service is really friendly and you're always greeted with a big smile. I think if the decor matched the high standard of food and service this place would have a line out the door

We went along on a Sunday evening around 6ish. We are a family of four with 13 and 10 year old daughter's. We ordered TG he set menu for 2 and ham omelette and french fries for the children. Firstly, toilet floor was slippy as an ice rink. Our youngest, whilst showing mum where the toilet was, went skating across the toilet floor, lost balance and then grabbed onto the sink for balance - the sink then fell away from wall completely! The men's toilet had no toilet seat at all so if you're likely to go for a number 2 during your visit ypuight want to near this mind. The service and set menu was good but Sunday night is obviously take away night and the kitchen seemed to be struggling ... our set menu took 3 waitresses several trips from kitchen to table. The ham omelettes were loaded with ham to the point you may have asked where's the omelette? One of the 3 waitresses didn't seem to know the contents of the set menu with us telling her what was included - nearly ended up with no eighties style gateaux. A good Chinese take away eaten in a slightly jaded Chinese restaurant.

A large airy restaurant with a good selection of dishes. Al the staff were helpful and friendly, although man taking our order did not fully understand and delivered a wrong item. No worries, it was good food, although a little different to our local Chinese..

Castle Douglas is the self styled Food Town, and there are many lovely little cafe's and coffee shops poised to take your hard earned pounds. However, whenever I am in Food Town, and I go a lot as it is down the road from my little cottage, then I always head straight for the Jade Palace. It is a great restaurant, top food and fast service.There are quibbles, it isn't open Monday/Tuesday, it serves lunch 12-2, but you have to get there really before 1.30 to get a guaranteed seat (they sometimes refuse the later diner and really look to close at 2.) Also, it is hard to see in and get the feel for the place, and once in it is a little dark.But these are only quibbles. I go to the Jade Palace because the food is brilliant, the service is fast and friendly, it is clean, and the value of the set lunch is unquestionably phenomenal. Surely these are the best reasons to choose where you eat, rather than anything else. Yes there are better "looking" places, but I have not sampled a better tasting lunch in Food Town at any point. We eat our lunches, so it is best to visit those places where the food puts a smile on our faces and in our bellies.

Went on a Friday for lunch - £4.90 per person - large choice of starter, main and dessert - even European dishes for those who don't want Chinese. Portion sizes good, service attentive and food tasted GOOD too - will definitely go back.

We attempted to visit for lunch whilst on hol. Checked on line times of opening and arrived at 1.40pm as this would be plenty of time for lunch. We travelled over half an hour and got stopped at the door stating had stopped serving at 1.45! Were rude! we informed that we were on hol, had confirmed on inernet closed after lunch at 3p.m. we also informed them that we had also visited last year whilst on hol to be told at the door were closed due to staff training. Both times have been v.disappointed and hungry. Inside we could see people still seated. Would be nice to have a little customer consideration.

A brilliant early midweek evening dinner. Good sized portions, good flavours and excellent service. There was a constant flow of people collecting take out meals which indicates it's popularity. This evident poularity is well deserved. A great find.

We visited here whilst on holiday last year when entering we were told they were stock taking and we couldnt be served lunch at 2p.m . Planning a lunch treat this year we called the day prior and also checked online which states lunch finishes at 3 p.m. we arrived on 17th march after our 20minute drive to be stopped on entering the restaurant at 1.51p.m to be told last orders were 1.45p.m. we explained our call etc. Shoulders were shrugged and we were turned away again. Poor representation for Castle Douglas. Poor customer service.

Very happy with lunchtime meal, service and value. Could not believe that you could get so much quality food for so little money. I will definitely return to this restaurant.

We went here on the 8th of April I only wish wish I could bottle it and take this place home the food was excellent second to none I highly recommend the chicken curry and fried rice my wife had the char sui mushroom and fried rice we were both amazed at how fantastic the meal was great tasting and excellent value for money the staff were very attentive and service was excellent so much so we are looking forward to trying it again tomorrow what a fantastic dining experience would give this place 6 stars if we could the only thing that let the place down was the tired decor but as we have said that won't stop us going back again tomorrow thoroughly enjoyed experience

This was the 3rd time that my husband I have eaten At The Jade Palace. We love Chinese food and eat it regularly when on holiday at different places, we think that The Jade Palace is the best Chinese we have ever had!!! The food is delicious, the staff are very good at their jobs and I would recommend anyone to have a meal there. The decor is a little dated but please do NOT let this put you off, you will not be disappointed.

We visited February and really enjoyed it the food was lovely and it was quite busy. Staff were friendly, lots of people in and out to collect takeaways too. Cheap enough. Well worth a visit.

We visited on one of coldest wet evenings as a storm hit Scotland, the restaurant us large with back up portable gas fires in use. Portions of food were extremly generous and tasty. Serving staff were all young people who were very attentive.

Looks good, but has a take away and it's not ideal being stared at by people waiting for take always food is ok but not anything special

We were visiting from Edinburgh for the weekend and were staying in Gatehouse of fleet so on the Saturday night we headed to the Jade Palace.We got a table very quickly after wading through the locals picking up their takeaways which we took as a good sign that the food was good!We ordered a chicken curry and a chicken in chilli sauce, both having fried rice too. The food came and it was excellent. One of the best Chinese meals I have had in a long time and I have tried a fair few in Edinburgh!I had a Tsing Tao and husband had a coke and altogether the meal came to less than £20! The restaurant is quite traditionally decorated but is nice enough.Would definitely revisit if I am in the area again!

Really enjoyed our meal here. The prices were fair and the portions large. The food was very well cooked and tasty.

Had the starter on this site looked great in picture,was awful ribs all dried up.had Cantonese sweet sour pork was worst I ever tasted,it's not a place I would go to eat it looked dirty and dated sorry but not nice at all very disappointed indeed

Banquets are great value. New dishes recently added which are superior to those previously offered which makes what was already a great place to eat even better.

We had a simple dinner of 2 courses each, all of which were horrible and not wanting to complain brought our concerns to the waitress's attention who was not concerned and once paid we asked to speak with a manager to which we were told emphatically no as he was way too busy to be disturbed. Both my husband and I still have unwell tummies 2 nights after our meal.

We've visited this restaurant a few times now, will return again. Our latest visit was just last night, we popped in for sizzling chicken in garlic & spring onion, with fried rice. Two main courses & rice, two drinks, £23. We were in & out in less than an hour; fast service, accurate serving, good attentive staff. Even served Guinness! I've also had the sizzling fillet beef in satay which was good. Disappointed that the plain chow mein was just noodles though. The restaurant certainly lacks any pretentious classiness, so if it's a quiet romantic meal you're after maybe try somewhere else. It's a busy place with the doorway frequently choked with people hanging around waiting for take-away orders. The toilets are in need of upgrading (to put it mildly - kitchen roll on a coathanger for hand-drying being a notable feature) so if you're of a sensitive nature it's not the place for you, but we walked in off the street in walking boots & muddy trousers and no-one batted an eyelid. Quite happy!

My Partner and I had a meal in this restaurant on Friday 2nd October and we could not fault the food at all. The service was to a very high standard as it always is . I had spare ribs , chicken curry and fried rice and banana fritter, my partner had a spring roll, chicken fried rice, then apple tart and cream, which was all very reasonably priced and cooked to perfection . The young waitress was very pleasant and mannerly and of course, Charlie was his usual cheery self. At NO time have we ever experienced any rudeness from the staff as stated in other reviews. The restaurant is very well furnished and spotlessly clean as were the toilets. if you are ever in Castle Douglas and want good this is the place to go to, you certainly wont be disappointed that's for sure. Keep up the good work Charlie and keep on smiling , we look forward to seeing you again in the near future.

Had lunch here, special on offer at £4 70 for three courses. Very good for the price. Can be upgraded for £1.

Very good service and the quality of the food was good. Didn't experience any rudeness as some commented. The only problem I encountered was the lack of choice for those of us who cannot eat MSG; something that is added to Asian food all too often.

Nice enough inside. They got the order wrong in the kitchen so I asked for a complimentary dessert and was told "In your dreams" and then "Ok, since it's you". They didn't ask if we wanted coffee and took ages to bring the bill. Noodles tasted metallic and too much egg in the rice. Drinks pricey

We found this restaurant in our first night. From the outside it didn't look much but the food was excellent. The restaurant offers a take-away service as well so it can get a bit busy at times.The service is good and staff very helpful and friendly.

We had the aromatic duck pancakes to start which were outstanding. I had sweet and sour chicken and it was lovely. My husband had a delicious beef curry. You could tell that the food was cooked traditionally without all the msg rubbish they put in sauces in most take aways these days. The decor is tired but the atmosphere and delicious food make up for it. Worth a try.

A popular resturant as the best chinese in the town, but that means you end up waiting for ages while they cover the long queue for takeaways - at one point the whole resturant was waiting for food. For £11 a head, the banquets are good value and the food ok for the price when it arrives. The place itself is tired and much like the rest of town looks like it was last refurbished around 40 years ago.

From the outside the restaurant looked very tired and in desperate need of refurbishment - however we decided to give it a go with as tripadvisor rating was 17 best places to eat in Castle Douglas.Going in we initially got a lovely warm welcome, so I still tried to remain positive and choose to try and ignore the state of the walls, carpet etc.Should have trusted my instinct - I truly believe every single person in that restaurant were served before us no matter when they came in. The service was terrible, they were so rude, didn't even look at us when taking our order. Waited over an hour for our food to be served while we watched everyone else receive theirs - it was SO NOT WORTH THE WAIT! Worst tasting Chinese food I have ever eaten. I do not recommend this restaurant. It's filthy, the service terrible and the food even worse!

All I have to say is that it is some of the best Chinese food I've ever had! You need to try it!! All the family agreed!

As a lover of chinese food, I regularly eat this cuisine & whilst on holiday near Castle Douglas came across this restaurant. From the outside the restaurant looked a little tired & dated but the service & attentive staff in addition to probably the best chinese food I've had in years really made up for it.Thank you so much for the experience, my local restaurants could learn a lot from your food.

Food was excellent!! We got the set menu for 2 people, there was so much food we struggled to finish it. One of the best Chinese meals I have ever had. Everything tasted so fresh. The staff were really nice and friendly too. We got 2 x won ton soup to start, 2 x special rice, pancake roll, lemon chicken, sizzling beef and prawn crackers. For dessert - pineapple fritters for me and ice cream for my hubby, followed by a pot of green tea! All for £23!!

I visit loch Ken holiday park three times a year for a weeks fishing holiday each visit. We always visit Jade palace and really enjoy our food and would highly recommend it to other people.

Food, service & price are excellent. Just needs some major updating but in the meantime decor produces some interesting discussion & titters

the meal was very nice service good restaurant needing a make over a bit dull but overall very nice would go back

Great Chinese and Wee Charlie always makes you so welcome.......Get the mixed starter for four, great selection, good portions and the sizzling fillet steak dishes are my favourite, book if your going Fri or Sat just to make sure you get a table.Been going for years, decor is like the 70s Chinese, not retro just never been touched since the 70s haha, Portable gas heaters in the Winter are just part of the quirky look of this wee JEM.If your in Castle Douglas or local try this Chinese you won't be disappointed and say hello to CHARLIE, who can also be spotted out jogging with two large bin lid headphones on around the town.

Amazing service. Great food. All cooked fresh. Five star. Staff always there to help. I have made this my new favourite place to go. And great value for money.

my family have been a few times over the years and my dad regularly gets take out from hear so we are fairly well known to staff, who are so friendly and welcomeing, the food is amazeing and i couldnt falt a thing. such a good place to go, for a date or even as a family. lots of real fish arround to keep the kids entertaned aswell as staff being verry friendly towards the kids. good price aswell. one of the best chineeses i have ever been to. just wish it was closer insted of haveing to go have way across country, tho its worth it. well worth a viset for any occashon or even a take away. will be back for meny years to come :)

The menu was very varied, the food excellent and friendly efficient staff. Only a tad dearer than most but worth it. More like the Chinese of yesteryear.

We popped into this restaurant by luck as it was the first one that caught our eye. Staff were very helpful, menu was basic but plenty to choose from, vegetarians feel welcomed. Nothing to difficult for staff who were very accommodating.

First impressions count so really its time the owner wakened up and spent some money on paint decor and cleaning. You have decent food but people will stop coming if the outside and inside doesn't look clean and inviting. OK for a sit in Chinese but there are better places to eat in the town.
