There’s a reason why the family-owned Jade Palace has three Valley locations — the Chinese-food restaurant serves up tasty dishes in a modern setting with friendly servers and generous portions. Dig in to pan-seared dumplings, hearty rice soup, roasted duck and jumbo shrimp — and be ready to take home some to-go boxes. Early risers can look forward to dim sum, a Chinese brunch offered Saturdays and Sundays.
