This is close from the San Jose airport. I used Lyft to reach here. My Taiwanese friend ordered dim sum (shrimp dumpling, siu mai, BBQ pork steam ban, and so on). I enjoyed every single one he ordered including dessert dishes!!

We had an absolutely fantastic lunch here with the family. From start to finish, the experience was wonderful. The service was attentive, friendly, and made us feel welcome the entire time, which set the tone for a great meal. The food itself was outstanding. We tried a variety of dishes, including the barbecue pork bun, siu mai, beef rice noodle roll, and a vegetarian fried rice. Every item we ordered was flavorful, freshly prepared, and beautifully presented. The pork buns were perfectly soft and savory, the siu mai delicate and satisfying, and the rice noodle rolls and fried rice were full of rich, balanced flavors. It’s rare to find a place that combines consistently delicious food with such excellent service. This spot is perfect for a family outing or a casual lunch, and we’ll definitely be coming back to try even more from the menu.

10/10 Recommended. Shoutout to Ms, Grace! A few of us nursing students were on lunch and we decided to go have dinner at the restaurant. We only had 1 hour and they made sure our food was out in a timely manner so we could eat and get back to class. I was actually a little hesitant but it turned out so good. We paid $61 for 5 ppl and all the food is shareable portions. We have definitely decided to make this our regular dinner spot for school.

A Hidden Gem with Outstanding Dimsum and Dedication I visited Jade Cathay on a busy Wednesday afternoon, and despite the packed dining room and an understaffed floor, this place still managed to impress me. Let’s start with the dimsum—absolutely incredible. The siu mai were juicy, flavorful, and perfectly steamed, with that ideal balance of pork and shrimp that melts in your mouth. The BBQ pork buns were a highlight: soft, fluffy exteriors with rich, sweet-savory char siu filling that had me craving more. And the beef chow fun? Hands down one of the best I've had in the area—tender slices of beef, perfectly chewy noodles, and that unmistakable wok hei flavor that’s so hard to find these days. Even though the restaurant was clearly short-staffed, I still feel service were very attentive. As someone who has worked in a busy restaurant myself, I could see the mental and physical effort they were putting in to keep everything running. It takes real dedication to stay composed and still provide good service under pressure—and they absolutely pulled it off. I'll definitely be back again. Not only for the amazing food but also to continue supporting a restaurant where the team truly cares. Highly recommend Jade Cathay for anyone looking for authentic, high-quality dimsum with heart.

Very good dim sum and the beef chow fun is one of the best I have ever had in the bay area. I recommend the sponge cake, which is still still made by the traditional method. I am impressed.

Came here for Saturday morning dim sum. Loved it. They have free parking lot and not too busy. Staff was friendly and food was delicious and came out quickly. Will definitely be back for dim sum and maybe to try some of the main entrees.

We wanted dim sum but didn’t really know which one. We decided to give Jade Cathay a try. There’s plenty of parking next to the restaurant. We were seated and we scanned the QR code and started ordered. We ordered jumbo fried crab claws, siu mai, black bean ribs, baked bbq buns, and beef chow fun with tender greens. The dim sum came out relatively quick, the black bean ribs were a decent size and tasted good. The siu mai was smaller than some places but not bad. The baked bbq buns had this amazing glaze on it and was super fluffy with great cha siu inside. The fried crab claws were huge!! It had minced shrimp and in the very middle there’s crab meat attached to the claw, it was fun to eat and very delicious. The beef chow fun was a big size but we were already pretty full after two of us ate 4 dim sums. We ended up taking a lot of the beef chow fun home to eat. The noodles had wok hay and there was plenty of beef and bok choy. Overall, pretty satisfied with the dim sum here!

This was my first time here. It was for a red egg and ginger party on a Saturday for lunch. The restaurant shares a parking lot, and there was plenty of parking. (There is a lightrail stop right outside, so make sure to take all your valuables with you). The food is pretty good. We had 10 courses, which were baked bbq pork buns, broccoli beef, salt pepper fish, beef chow fun, salted fish chicken fried rice, lemon chicken, mapo tofu, stir fried string beans, egg tarts and mango pudding. Our table's favorite were the string beans and salt pepper fish. I liked the mapo tofu, the egg tarts, and the mango pudding. I would come back.

Authentic dim sum restaurant experience with tons of great tasting food served hot and fresh. If you're offered the in house tea, say yes! It's amazing and goes well with the food. Service is stellar with lots of seating and servers always coming by with fresh options to try. Excellent restaurant!!
