The food with a view of the lake and mountains was very good. Everyone was very friendly and explained the existing Asian characters to the whole family.

Food is authentic, ambience is comforting, reservation is very much recommended because they are always full. We love the Peking Duck, the crispy Fish, the Chili Oil Beef, even the Spare Ribs. There’s always Jialu in our itinerary whenever we have our staycation in Lucerne. Staffs are very friendly and polite, that’s important too.

The food is ok but the owner, who also does the service, has no decency. She should make her “funny” sayings in her husband’s bedroom.

I've eaten at Jialu a few times now, including last night with friends. The food is always great, especially the crispy eggplants and the service is always very friendly and accommodating, even when, like last night, they have full house. For me the best Chinese in Lucerne 👍😋 Keep it up 💪

I had a very good lunch at the Jialu Chinese Restaurant today. The service was very attentive, charming, humorous and friendly. The food was awesome. I ordered a hot and sour soup that tasted really great. For the main course I chose a tofu dish with peanuts. That also tasted very good. The portion was very generous! Recommended: Gin Tonic with Lapsang flavor If you want a table with a lake view, you should reserve well in advance. But the atmosphere when you're not sitting by the window is also very nice. Conclusion: I would be happy to come back and would be happy to recommend your restaurant.

What a gem! As a Singaporean, I always crave for Asian food in my overseas trips. Saw their rave reviews from Trip Advisors and decided to give it a try, and it certainly lived up to its good reputation. Every dish is so delicious. Crispy eggplant, deep fried pork ribs, La Zi Ji (chicken with Si Chuan spice) and the beef soup are must try! It was so good that our family returned the next day for more.

My visit to JiaLu was a real treat! The atmosphere in this restaurant is welcoming, cozy and extremely clean. It creates the perfect environment to feel at home. The service at JiaLu is impeccable and exceeds all expectations. The warmth and attentiveness of the staff are noticeable and make you feel like you are a valued guest. The food at JiaLu is undoubtedly the highlight. The dishes are not only delicious, but they take the senses straight to China. The authenticity of the flavors is remarkable, and the healthy preparation shows that quality comes first here. I can't wait to come back to enjoy your excellent cuisine again. JiaLu has won a permanent place in my heart and I am sure there will be many more visits. Thank you for this unforgettable culinary experience!❤️

This chinese restaurant was a bit disappointing after seeing all the great reviews. Overall it was not that great, i didn’t enjoy it as much and it didn’t deserve 4.5 stars. The service was slow, even with good amount of staff there, food was mediocre and pricey, and there was no views nor atmosphere of the place. The hot and sour soup was too peppery and missed the spicy hot flavor, didn’t taste authentic like real chinese soup. The other dishes were just ok. The only good thing was probably the white rice lol.

Ordered 2 appetizers. What they brought were different looking, but we figured it was just their versions of the appetizers. So, we started eating it. Our server comes and says they brought us the wrong appetizers (which we didn’t end up liking) and that she had cancelled our actual appetizers and added the ones we didn’t order to our bill since we had started eating it. I paid for the appetizers and drinks and left. Terrible way to handle that situation. They get a negative rating for the service and since all we ate were parts of the 2 appetizers we didn’t order they get a negative rating on the food too. We spent 70.00 for a sprite, tea and appetizers we didn’t order or like. Just know if you go you’re gonna pay for whatever they deliver to your table whether or not you or the ordered it or like it. And now we’re looking for another restaurant to eat dinner. First bad experience in Lucerne. Won’t be back.

The weather was nice out so they say everyone outside so you had water views. The food itself was fresh and plentiful portions. We had the spicy beef hot pot, dim sum, spring rolls, udon noodles, and the shiitake chicken, which were all great options. The service was phenomenal as well with the waiting staff being super friendly and checking up on us periodically even with so many other tables. Highly recommend!

Food in Jialu is greatly appreciated and the price is acceptable. Especially the La Zi chicken is one of my favorite food. It is the good example of spicy fried chicken. I am definitely recommending this place for everyone. Also, the staff members in there are extraordinary kind and cute. I was served by waitress, Nout, I guess. She was always there to help and improve the service for our table.

Dinner, 6 people, July 6, 2023. Table reserved for 7:30 p.m. Occasion: Celebration of apprenticeship completion. Order: 3x Kaiser Menu, 3 x Jialu Menu. Restaurant pretty well staffed. First impression of service: hectic, awkward, wine list is only presented after intervention. We order 1 bottle of wine for 5 people, but only 4 glasses are brought, poured as briefly as if everyone wanted to try the wine first. Pointing out the missing fifth glass, the service employee leaves and doesn't show up again for the next 10 minutes. When the “Chef de Service?” intervenes, a 5th glass is served, but it has a different shape than the 4 already on the table. We're thinking about what service surprises we'll experience this evening and wondering how a specialty restaurant in such a renowned location can even afford something like that. The main course of the menu is served after 2 hours, at 9.30 p.m. In the meantime it has become windier and cooler, and the Rechaud candles that have been served cannot be used because of the wind. The food is more or less cold, surprisingly but still wholesome and tasty. The question as to whether it would be possible to retreat somewhere indoors is answered in the negative. The mood in the family is now quite low, and there is no longer any talk of celebrating the completion of the apprenticeship. The graduate of the final apprenticeship examination originally wanted to meet colleagues from his class at 9 p.m. The inefficient and overwhelmed service has made this impossible. At 10:30 p.m. we were able to retreat to a table that was a little more sheltered from the wind, where the desserts were finally served. It's a shame, an actually exquisite meal is ruined by truly unprofessional service. A dinner at such a price probably deserves more attention and service. My appropriate criticism of the “Chef de Service” is answered with a jovial “We were just run over by the rush of guests today”, which for me is an unacceptable excuse for a restaurant in a 5 star hotel. With the experiences we have had, we will hardly be guests at Jialu National again.

Appetizers were fast, hot and good. Food took another 45 minutes because a large party came in. Beef and vegetables were actually cold and server said she would microwave it but didn't offer a clean plate to put newly hot food. Almond chicken was overcooked and dry with water in the vegetables. We ask for salt which is unusual in a chinease restaurant. We were a party of 5 and not 1 dish was finished. When the server noticed no one had eaten much, at that time she ask if we wanted soy sauce or other condiments. After the owner said she would remake the beef and vegetables we told her that should have been the offer when server was told it was cold, not an offer to microwave it. She did not charge for that dish after some discussion, but the rest of the food was bad. 5 hungary people could easily consume 4 meals if they were good.
