The Jade Restaurant

Dim sum with a Hunan-labelled dinner plate

W Caldwell Avenue

3837 W Caldwell Ave, Visalia, CA 93277559-734-5233

Jade is the Caldwell Avenue branch whose operator site links its ordering menu. The menu separates Dim Sum from Dinner Special Plates and names both a shrimp Hakaw dumpling and Hunan Queen. Tofu with Orange Sauce provides another direction for the meal.

Build an order. Shrimp Hakaw Dumpling (6) $6.29 is in Dim Sum, alongside Pork Bun (3) $6.59 and Mushroom Bun (4) $6.29. Shrimp Hakaw Dumpling (6): the Dim Sum menu's 'Hakaw' is a har-gow shrimp-dumpling spelling. For a larger meal, Hunan Queen $17.29 is described as shrimp, chicken, beef and vegetables in Hunan sauce; Dinner Special Plates come with chicken fried rice or chicken chow mein. Tofu with Orange Sauce $15.99 is a separately named vegetable-relevant entree. Pot Sticker (8) $13.99 is a separate appetizer.

Before you go. The operator lists Tuesday-Sunday 11:00 AM-9:00 PM and Monday closed. The linked All Day Menu instead prints Sun-Sat 11:00 AM-9:00 PM, including Monday, and showed Order Ahead Is Available at the morning check. Confirm Monday service by phone. The alternate same-branch Wix menu has lower prices and unfinished dish-description placeholders, so its prices are not substituted into the selected ordering menu.

Delivery: direct The operator homepage advertises Pickup and Delivery, and its linked exact-branch qMenu displays Delivery and Pickup. Address eligibility, fee, radius and fulfillment provider were not established in the readable view; confirm them before ordering. No restaurant-owned fleet is claimed.

S Mooney Boulevard at 3326

3326 S Mooney Blvd, Visalia, CA 93277559-636-6277

New China identifies its South Mooney Boulevard branch as Cantonese and Mandarin cuisine. Its current homepage links a 2026 menu PDF with separate a la carte dishes, Special Dinner plates, family dinners and an 11:00 AM-3:00 PM lunch section. The selected meal uses the regular Pork and Appetizers sections.

Build an order. Moo Shu Pork $15.75 is listed in the regular Pork section; the menu does not specify accompanying pancakes or a portion count, so ask when ordering. Pair it with Pot Sticker (8) $14.00 and Garlic Tofu $15.00 from the Vegetarian section. The Chicken section separately lists Mapo Tofu (with Chicken Mince) $16.00, so that item is not a meat-free alternative. Family Dinner $23.45 per person has a minimum of two people and is a separate format.

Before you go. Both the operator homepage and linked 2026 PDF list Sunday-Thursday 11:00 AM-9:00 PM and Friday-Saturday 11:00 AM-9:30 PM, with Tuesday closed. The PDF says takeout does not include soup for the Special Dinner and Combo Dinner formats; the lunch panel is 11:00 AM-3:00 PM. The branch is behind Carls Jr. according to the PDF. Call to confirm current dish availability and takeout arrangements.

No delivery listed The fetched operator homepage and linked PDF advertise food to go, dine-in and catering, but list no delivery service. Please confirm by phone.

Where are these Chinese restaurants in Visalia?

The six exact branches are on Caldwell Avenue, South Mooney Boulevard, Mineral King Avenue, Walnut Avenue, Noble Avenue and Dinuba Boulevard. All six operator addresses say Visalia. Use each record's street address to select the intended branch.

Where can I find dim sum or dumplings?

Jade's linked ordering menu has a Dim Sum section with Shrimp Hakaw Dumpling (6), pork buns and mushroom buns. New China, Kow Loon, Shanghai, Zen and PanPan name pot stickers or steamed dumplings. Their generic dumpling labels do not establish soup dumplings, and no soup-dumpling or siu-mai price was verified for this guide.

Which regional dish labels are supported?

Jade names Hunan Queen and describes shrimp, chicken, beef and vegetables in Hunan sauce. New China and Kow Loon describe their menus as Cantonese and Mandarin. Shanghai Chow Mein (Spicy), Singapore Style Rice Noodle and Peking-labelled pork dishes are literal menu labels; they do not by themselves establish a dedicated regional specialist.

Which menus name vegetable or tofu options?

New China's Vegetarian section lists Garlic Tofu, while its Mapo Tofu with Chicken Mince is separate. Jade names Tofu with Orange Sauce; Kow Loon names Vegetable Combo; Shanghai names Fresh Vegetable Chow Mein; Zen names Orange Nugget (tofu) and vegetables egg foo young; PanPan names Tofu w. Mixed Veg. Ask about broth, sauce and preparation for strict dietary requirements.

Which prices and delivery claims need channel checks?

Jade advertises delivery but has conflicting Monday hours and a separate lower-price Wix menu. Shanghai's selected site explicitly offers no delivery, while its alternate same-branch operator channel has Delivery controls, different prices and a different phone. New China and Zen use posted image menus; PanPan's combo needs eligible choices confirmed. No delivery service was established for New China, Kow Loon, Zen or PanPan; confirm directly.
