Very very good hole in the wall style Chinese cuisine. We came in with a 12 person party at 3:30 am and we were served promptly with a smile. 20% included gratuity for the large party but whatever, the food was delicious. I got the Szechuan Chicken and everything was made with fresh ingredients and everyone seemed to enjoy their food. Hot tea was delicious, and we all left with a smile. Coming from NYC this place is a godsend of late night eateries. “Salt” at the table included shows the authenticity

I ordered from here because I function on a nocturnal schedule and it was one of the only spots open on Christmas Eve night (well, technically Christmas day since I ordered after midnight)!
Got General Tso’s bean curd and BOGO egg drop soup.
The general tso’s bean curd– SO good! And so generous with the portion, chock full. I’m not a vegetarian but enjoy the food, and this is one of the best takes I’ve had. I don’t like heavily battered stuff, this was perfect for me. Basically tasted like tofu with a cooked skin. It came with three pieces of steamed broccoli, I wish there was more broccoli but that wasn’t included in the item description, so, fair enough. It also came with what the description said was a, “small,” box of rice but I would describe it more as medium since I’ve definitely had smaller boxes of rice. Filling meal.
The egg drop soup is interesting.Tasty and warming, but has a taste like leftover slightly burnt pieces from a skillet? IDK how else to say it. Mde it kind of homey. Big containers too. Happy with it.
It arrived quickly via UberEats and was piping hot. I would definitely order from here again.

Tried this place for the first time just now because it was open late on ubereats. Never again. I ordered an orange chicken for me and a shrimp & broccoli for my girl and it was horrible. Sauce for the shrimp/broccoli was sour and nasty and the orange chicken tasted old & dry. Shrimp wasn’t even seasoned.

Listen. This place is great Chinese food. Service is what it is. They serve great food and are open later than anyone around. First time I’m DC an dim glad this was one of very few options available at 1AM. Highly recommend if looking for good Chinese food.

Went here on a Saturday night with my buddies and we all got noodle soup! Beef brisket, roasted duck and ox tail, asked for thick noodles and it was SOOO good. All three broths were on point and all three meats were juicy and tender. Definitely try these dishes.

I’m disappointed in my experience with Jackey Cafe tonight.
The service was mediocre and the food was disgusting! Whenever we have a night out in Chinatown, we stop here for a late dinner. Then, we Uber home. We got home and discovered that ALL of our food was spoiled.
Shrimp Lo Mein – noodles were dry, sour and had a foul odor.
Shrimp and broccoli – the shrimp were mushy, bitter and sour.
Chicken wings – (see photo) wings had a foul odor and the bones were dark/bruised.
Hot and sour soup – soup tasted like it was at least a day old.
Egg rolls – the cabbage was dry/dehydrated. This actually tasted better than everything else.
When we called the complain, the “manager” said “that’s impossible” and would only acknowledge our complaint if we, as he stated, “well, bring it back and let me taste it.” This would be an inconvenience, as we don’t live in walking distance. Our ride home is 30 minutes and we weren’t going to drive back to the restaurant after midnight.
The foul odor and taste of the food warrants a complaint with the Department of Health; which I will be filling when I go into work on Monday morning.
The children in the restaurant (especially the boy) was extremely rude. He was loud and obnoxious – using profanity. The girl had an attitude whenever she was asked to do something other than sit with her face buried in her phone. The woman who took our order was extremely pleasant, as always, and she was trying to remain calm while the children were disobedient.
This used to be our favorite late night spot. Needless to say, we’ll never go there again. We’re just two customers – I’m sure the owners won’t care about losing two customers.

Not good! Swung by here for carry out and almost skipped it because the restaurant was empty and the one across the street was packed. Thought it might just be because it was late. Wrong. Not very clean restaurant and the food was terrible. Inedible and expensive. Avoid at all costs. The soup was gluey and the crab Rangoon was terrible. We got some appetizers, a soup and fried rice and it was $56 including a tip and inedible.
