Mostly overhyped, some great items - Edit
The spicy noodle bowl is the sole reason for the “high” rating. Other items have been painfully mid for the price point, but cool trendy presentation and if you’ve got more money than what you know what to do with, by all means buy the rabbit shaped food.

Best meal - Edit
They were doing a special Filipino menu when I went. Everything was delicious! Update: went back after it changed to Jade Rabbit and had one of the best meals I’ve had in a long time. Wish I could give it more than five stars

Bao bunnies! - Edit
What a lovely place! A distillery turned restaurant that sits over two levels. We arrived without a reservation (should have known better!) but the kind server shuffled things around to fit us. We tried an incredible local sake that was cloudy with notes of coconut cream. The Gai lan was almost charred which made for an incredible taste and texture. The wontons were delightful and the chilli oil packed a punch when we piled it on. The radish cakes were a much better texture than I expected and the sauce pairing was sweet and salty. The bunny baos were so cute that I didn’t want to eat them! They had a great ratio of filling and paired well with my leftover chilli oil. Highly recommend but make a booking!

We have had 3 meals in Portland during our visit. This was by far the best. Creative, cool, warm vibe, food like you have not tasted before. Fabulous experience. We ate way too much, but it was worth it.

Fun Restaurant - Edit
Jade Rabbit is located in a well designed space and offers a well thought out menu. The staff recommend 2 small plates per person or 1 bowl.
Read moreMy favorites were the wontons and the dumplings. The ube crème brûlée is nice as well.
I would recommend checking this restaurant out. Note that reservations may be required.

Costumer services needs improvement - Edit
The food is very good, I booked there for my birthday, which was special day to me and my first time at the restaurant. Unfortunately, the experience was not fortunate. The waitress attending us did not seem wanting to be there. And , the way we are treated in a place, usually it is the perception we've got of a place.
Read moreWe received our first order, within a few minutes. It was very good, and then, we ordered desert. After over 20 minutes of waiting, we were alreayd late for an appointment. It never crossed my mind that a desert would take so long.
We asked the waitress, she was rude and justified that they didn't have enought staff in the kitchen. We were not willing to wait even longer and canceled the order. It was not a good experience to have on my birthday.
I would like to come back, but i would definitely not like to have that lady as waitress and i would also recommend people to go with plenty of time. I thought that 1h30m would be enough to have dinner, but you need much more time there.

My current fave - Edit
This place is so cute and the food was wonderful. I only had dim sum because it is so rare to fine vegan dim sum. The two of use split 4 different ones and the ube cream brûlée — OMG — it was so good— don’t split it — you will want your own😉

interesting dining experience - Edit
the siu mai dumplings and the dipping sauce they came with were delicious! the jade rabbit dumplings were cute but a little deformed/gummy and the fiery wind noodle soup tasted like pure chili oil. the siu mai dumplings were amazing enough to make up for it but overall it was pretty expensive for what we got

A Portland Fave - Edit
I love the atmosphere and the design of this place. It is like they have thought everything. So much effort even down to the perfect bunny shaped bao and dumplings which were almost too adorable to eat, but they were SO delicious. Will definitely return on my next trip.

Must go! - Edit
We ended up stopping by twice during our trip because it was just that good - and we would’ve made it 3 if we had the time! Amazing food, cocktails and service. Some of our favorites were the siu mai, chili oil wontons and ube crème brûlée. While their bunny shaped dumplings/baos are iconic, I think they have better tasting food on the menu.

10 stars if I could! Best ramen I’ve ever had - Edit
Going here was such an experience.
Read moreI don’t know if reservations are always required but when we walked up they had a small sign that said “Reservations Required” over the door. We stood outside looking confused and sad for a few minutes and the hostess waved us inside because they had a cancellation. Make sure you check if you need a reservation ahead.
We got tea and they had a little tea ceremony which I’ve never experienced.
My partner ordered Milk Oolong and I ordered the Blue People. Both were out of this world!!
We ordered Fried Wontons(spicy), Puto Pao Bunny Bao, and Fiery Wind Noodle Soup(spicy). The noodle soup had “chicken” and it took us to another dimension. Definitely best ramen of my life (vegan and non-vegan ramen).
We got the Wild Banana Mochi for desert and it was incredible! Definitely go here!!
I don’t remember her name but our waitress was amazing and all of the staff were really friendly.

Hit or miss with good options - Edit
I was really impressed with Jade Rabbit a couple years ago when they were just working out of a kitchen doing take out. I would crave it all the time after they closed because there's really no other restaurant in Portland that fills their void.
Read moreI went to their current brick and mortar location for the first time in July and was disappointed. The chili wontons were still excellent, but their medical soup was super under salted and I used to love it while the mushroom adobo was incredibly over salted. The tofu skin dish was bland and I only ate them with the chili wonton sauce. I went with another couple and they agreed about the adobo which they also ordered and another dim sum dish they ordered was also bland.
I really love what they offer so I hope they get adjusted and I'll take another chance in a few months.
Update 11/2023
I went back here because they were offering 50% off for teachers during the PPS strike and really enjoyed the ramen on the seasonal menu. Another time I had the kimchi pancake which was too light on the kimchi flavor for me. I would still say hit or miss here, but seems to be more hits recently and I really appreciate their menu selection so I bumped this up from 3 to 4 stars. I will continue to go back and try more things.
