Welcome to J’S Chinese Cuisine

“ Loved this place!! I was in California last year and enjoyed the food, service and atmosphere to the max! My sister and I still think about the orange chicken even after a year! I think this was the best orange chicken I have ever had it was so crispy/crunchy but the chicken was so juicy and fresh. I cannot wait to go back to California just for this orange chicken. ”

“ Found this little hidden gem in Pasadena. The girls and I were in the mood for some Chinese food and this was the perfect spot. The staff was very friendly, quick and attentive. The portions we great for sharing, it’s like family style which is nice. Since we all wanted to try a little of everything. I highly recommend the sesame chicken. It was so crunchy and delicious, that plate was done within a few minutes. Another of my favorite was the garlic cucumber. So much flavor and refreshing. We were lucky enough to find parking right in front. Worth checking them out and eating there, especially for big parties. ”

“ The food was delicious, the service excellent, the establishment was clean, portions generous, and cost affordable. We ordered chow mein, fish with black bean sauce, and Mongolian beef. It's not Chinese fast food, it's a sit down restaurant. Surprised it wasn't crowded as the food is delicious. The location is a little non-descript but street parking was easy. I live in Gardena and although there are several Chinese restaurants, none are good. This was a lucky find as restaurant reviews in general tend to result in a bad choice. ”

“ I was happy to find this new Chinese Restaurant near the Hotel where I was staying in Pasadena. We parked on the street, we chose the, 1-Shrimp Chow Mein prepared with least 8 Prawns and the right Chinese seasoning, 2-Salt and Pepper fish was a delightful treat, plated popping hot with Jalapeno and Onion Slices, 3-the Orange Chicken…small balls of Chicken not overly sweet with a light batter that complimented the dinner. 4- Hot and Sour soup, spicy and tangy with sliced bamboo shots,shitake mushrooms, diced pieces of tofu. The only thing that was under par was the Hot Tea, a half pot of water down tea. Definitely a good choice for Chinese Food next time I visit Pasadena. ”

“ Excellent food in an unlikely neighborhood. It is a wonderful place, with vey good service. The seafood platter, tomato-beef chow mein and the eggplant (especially) were terrific -- as good as it gets. Prices are very reasonable. ”

“ The food here was SO GOOD! I got the crab puffs (crab rangoons) and the vegetable chow fun. Some of the best crab puffs in LA! ”

“ Review of my visit and first food experience. Restaurant is clean and comfortable. Fried shrimp appetizer was easily 5 stars plus and highly recommend. Minimal sweet and sour sauce no hot mustard brought or offered . Hot and sour soup soup loaded with ingredients but a little bland and not so hot in flavor or temperature. The entree was "prawns" and "mixed vegetables". From size and shape looked like shrimp. My opinion. Broccoli and carrots only veggies and far outweighed the shrimp ratio. Serving size decent but heavy vegetables without a mixed variety. No rice included. That the new norm? Is- is not wherever you go it seems. Service was outstanding. Bit of a drive to return for another visit. Not because of a bad experience or food. Just not over the top to make the drive. ”

“ When I walk into J’s place it feels like home! Hands down the best Chinese food in town, you just don’t know it yet. I’ve ordered almost everything on the menu, tonight I went all veg and was satisfied as if they were mains. The layers of flavor and genuine recipes are so tasty- even my picky toddler ate a bunch! The prices are very reasonable, you gotta try it! ”
