The wait was less than 20 minutes but then another few minutes before we were given menus. We went here because a friend told us they had good Peking duck. Well apparently they sold out the night before. Not quite sure how you sell out of Peking duck on a Friday but then have none for the rest of the weekend. Nonetheless we stayed but we really shouldn't have. This is definitely an Americanized Chinese place. The spare ribs barely had meat on the bone and the meat was tasteless. I did enjoy the wontons in my wonton egg drop soup and the beef skewers were tasty. They made the moo shoo pancakes for us which was nice. The scallion pancakes were all dough and maybe a sliver of scallion. I don't think I will return even if they guaranteed the Peking duck. I can't imagine it would be worth it. As an aside, besides the people who worked there, I think hubby and I were the only other Asians. If you're looking for Chinese food (other than the Peking duck), there are numerous other Chinese restaurants with tastier food and definitely better service.

We were four and mostly agreed we enjoyed the appetizers (especially the tri-color vegetable…read moredumplings and the crystal shrimp dumplings), but not so much the main courses (especially not the marinated grilled salmon and the Buddha's delight). Also, early on, we had a little service issue that was tacitly resolved in our favor. We only wanted to order appetizers at first and later order the main courses. The server told us words to the effect that they take the order for everything at the same time because if later the restaurant is packed, the kitchen gets overwhelmed, and, also, they bring out the food whenever it's ready. As requested, we gave her our order for everything, but ultimately she was able to just serve the appetizers first and then pause until we were done with them before she brought out the main courses. My wife wanted a sweet white wine with her fish, like a Mosel. The closest they said they had was a fruity white Riesling, called Selbach/Incline, which turned out to be very fruity and delicious!

Location location location. Jia finds its "jia" in Port and serves its specific clientele…read morebefittingly well. Clean restaurant, dishes are presented precisely and attractively. We went for dinner and the loud party music absolutely did not fit the calm, natural interior decor. In fact, the music was irritating and confusing when the decor looks more zen-like. Not sure what they're going for there. Service was not very attentive either. No one ever asked how our food was or if we needed anything. Water cup was left empty often. So then am I paying for some magical taste in these dishes? Because the prices are double that of some excellent Chinese options not only in Queens, but even Long Island. Again, all the dishes were presented very well, but if I ate blindfolded I would not have noticed anything truly amazing. Lamb potstickers were good, but could use some more cumin and spice. Seafood fried rice had hot chilli peppers in it - why?? Also may want to warn customers of this since families with young kids ordering rice/noodles may be ordering for kids who don't eat spicy food (not indicated on menu). Shanghai soup dumpling were...unusual. Adding a goji berry on top is a little gimmicky, but we all hated the mushy filling. The meat falls apart inside the dumpling and perhaps that's what they're going for? I also suspect there is a lot of msg and salt being used. The duck was delicious cooked, cut perfectly and presented nicely. A warning about the cranberry sauce - if you have it during Thanksgiving, great go for it. If you don't like cranberry sauce during Thanksgiving, don't even bother with it here. Duck is not turkey (what an insult that would be to compare the two) but I'm guessing that's where the idea for cranberry sauce came from. In the end, it felt like westernised cuisine masquerading as Chinese food. (My family wanted to give Jia 2 stars - they never want to go back, but I'm feeling generous :P) My star rating legend: 5: A+ Worth a special journey (ie. I would go out of my way, maybe even take a flight somewhere just for this; exceptionally amazing) 4: A excellent, a must try, solid place 3: B good; nothing extraordinary, but would definitely go again 2: C personally would never go again (unless invited by someone and I didn't get to pick the place), but I can see how others might find something appealing 1: Fail. I would never return and recommend no on else goes either.

This place has a tight seating arrangement inside. The tables are literally sitting so close that you might as well join the other table's conversation. We ordered two appetizers, and they were not bad, fairly decent: Crispy Rice with Tuna and Lettuce Cups. For the main course, I got the Braised Short Ribs, and my friend got the Wagyu Steak Frites. My meal came out cold, and the server immediately, without hesitation, returned the food, apologized, and brought out a fresh meal. The food was blah. We both didn't rave about our meals because the food was bland. I hope that this is not always the case. I did notice that the tables to the left and right of me only ordered sushi. So maybe I should have just ordered a variety of sushi rolls instead of the meals. I didn't even want to try the dessert because I didn't want to be disappointed.
