Reviews
I began with the seaweed salad — fresh, well-balanced, and lightly seasoned, making it a clean and refreshing start to the meal.
For the main course, I ordered the spicy salt and pepper seafood, which was crisp, aromatic, and packed with bold flavor. The heat was noticeable but well-controlled, enhancing the natural sweetness of the seafood while maintaining a satisfying crunch. The seasoning delivered depth without feeling greasy or overly heavy.
To complement the dishes, I enjoyed a beer along with a cocktail — both well-crafted and pairing nicely with the spice-forward profile of the entrée.
The menu is diverse, featuring sushi and a variety of Japanese favorites, along with select Thai dishes, making it a versatile option for different tastes and occasions.
Although somewhat tucked away, the restaurant is well worth finding. There’s a city parking garage in the back at approximately $3 per hour, which makes it convenient and affordable for visitors. The space offers bar seating with TVs playing sports, comfortable indoor dining, and outdoor seating for those who prefer an open-air atmosphere. Whether you’re grabbing lunch, catching a game, or meeting friends for drinks, the setting is relaxed and inviting. Service throughout the visit was attentive and professional.
Overall, a well-rounded dining experience with quality dishes, strong flavors, and a welcoming vibe. Definitely a spot worth recommending.
Quickly seated our waiter was all smiles as he asked if we wanted drinks, upon our declining the smile faded.
The menu was more for Japanese food yet the restaurant’s name is “Jade”…a gem prized and associated with Chinese. Their website states, “Where Asian Traditions Meet Modern Elegance In The Heart Of Lowell”
It goes on to mention a fusion, which is accurate…this restaurant is a cross between a sports bar and an Asian restaurant. The sports bar fills the center of the dining room and as expected appears to be a local watering hole for the Townies. In addition there is progressive dance music as loud as the conversations. (Read modern disco)
We were a bit rushed to order, to their credit the appetizers came fast, although not together. The fried garden roll was typical, ok. The seaweed salad, ok.
After about 10 minutes my wife’s dish came, but not mine. After a long wait and filling up on fried rice and such I walked to the counter to cancel my dish which appeared to be forgotten…at that time the waiter arrived with it and I accepted the late food…a few mins into the dish and he came over to interrupt saying he had warned it was av20 minute dish as it was fried. No, we were not warned, that was a lie.
Not worth the wait the sesame beef tasted of too much vinegar and over the disco music I imagined hearing, “what do you want for nothing? Rrrrrrubbber biscuit??” The beef was like a Charleston Chew, endless biting to swallow. I’m not fussy, I like MREs…this was NOT good food, I don’t care who wrote the glowing reviews, this place sucks.
We got out of there as quickly as possible, total damage? $87.54 for two, 15% tip I included out of kindness. That’s $45.00 per head. There are so many better less expensive restaurants in the area.
The final insult was to demand payment via QR code…which takes you to a website that requires your email address and FORCES you to opt in for marketing 3rd party spam.
My advice? Ignore the positive reviews here, I have no idea if they are real….trust me, this one is. Keep walking my brother, sister.
The space is modern, but comfortable.
Service is polite and fast. They are very straight to the point, making it great if you’re tired looking for a hot meal.
Most importantly, this is very good fusion, plus they have very affordable drinks (possibly best price per quality in the Merrimack Valley).
I hope Jade keeps killing it!
The lo mein is absolutely amazing, perfectly seasoned, full of flavor, and never greasy. Every dish tastes fresh, balanced, and thoughtfully prepared. Friendly service, generous portions, and reliable quality make Jade an easy favorite.
I liked the more modern look and aesthetic. It felt sleek and the location being downstairs in an office space felt like a hidden gem. They also had outdoor seating but it’s seasonal and not open during the winter.
The waiters were professional and provided efficient service. During our time there, I didn’t feel pressured to leave early.
I also notice that they had an outdoor area that was closed for the winter. I think it would’ve been great to try it out during the warmer seasons! The outdoor area is close to the roads, but it wasn’t busy when we were dining there
