Jade Palace Restaurant

Jade Palace Restaurant, located at 9160 East Shea Boulevard in Scottsdale, Arizona, represents a remarkable culinary legacy spanning three generations of the Mei family. Founded by Grandfather Mei, whose restaurant journey began in the Guangdong Province of China near Hong Kong, this establishment brings authentic Cantonese flavors to the Sonoran Desert. The family migrated to America in the 1980s, initially establishing themselves in New York's competitive Chinatown scene before answering the call from Arizona friends who longed for quality Chinese cuisine in the Phoenix area. In 1996, the Mei family opened their first Scottsdale location, and today brothers Leon and Davlen continue this cherished tradition, with Leon managing the Shea/92nd Street location and Davlen overseeing the North Scottsdale restaurant on Pinnacle Peak Road. The menu showcases a diverse selection of appetizers, vegetables, soups, noodles, rice, and meat entrees, with house specialties including the flavorful pepper chicken in brown sauce, tender string beans, and the highly recommended hot and sour soup. The dining room presents an elegant atmosphere with decor that elevates the experience beyond typical casual Chinese dining, making it perfect for business lunches, family celebrations, and client meetings. The restaurant offers comprehensive services including reservations via OpenTable, catering for events, and private party hosting for birthdays, rehearsal dinners, and corporate gatherings. Open daily from 2PM to 9PM, Jade Palace combines traditional family recipes with warm Arizona hospitality.
