Will definitely be going by again!!!

It describes itself as buffet style, so we expected to go through a line and get our own food. It is actually cafeteria style, where you choose and they put it on the plate for you. A different experience. No biggie, just FYI. The options are simple; A, B or C, depending on whether you opt for 1,2 or 3 entree items. The prices are very reasonable ($10.95 for the most expensive option), especially for the huge portions they gave- our to-go boxes barely closed! Haven't had this kind of value in a long time. Thank you!

Their food was still very good, and I was lucky to be there before they close for the summer. Recommendations: Garlic cucumber, clear noodle with dressing, spicy combo pot, stir fried lamb, spicy wonton soup, fish with sichuan pickles The only thing I don't recommend is fried eggplant. Portion was very small for the price ($17), it was stuffed with minced meat which wasn't in the description (I wouldn't have ordered it if I knew) They will be closed from May 25th through Sept 21st, 2026.

We ordered from their already limited dim sum menu which was suppose to be available until 4 pm per their menu. ( we got there around 2:40 pm) Other parties arrived after us yet they were served their food before us. The service was not great. The food was subpar. They even charged me for food they didn't even deliver. When I expressed I never got the food yet she charged me she tried to get me to pay for someone else's food. I told her that was not my bill. I would not recommend coming here. The table was dirty and so was the cutlery. It got two stars because the pan fried scallion tasted fine and my daughter liked it.

We have been on the search for tasty Chinese food and are so happy that we found the perfect place. We did not know what to expect for serving sizes and wanted to make sure to have enough food for football Sunday -- but we were pleasantly surprised by the size of the portions. They're HUGE! Ended up with lots of leftovers that were even more delicious the next day. What was even more wonderful was the kindness and service that I experienced when I went to pick up the food. We had a big order so one of the servers offered to carry the order to my car for me when it was ready so I didn't have to lift a finger! They even threw in some extra soup to go alongside the rest of our order. So, so kind! Definitely gives us a reason to keep coming back and also was a big reason why we started recommending everyone give them a try. We didn't eat inside, but it was nice and cozy and clean.

On a recent trip to California to celebrate a birthday, my Aunt & I had a fabulous meal at Joy…read moreAsian Cuisine. We were greeted with smiles & seated promptly. Several patrons were enjoying their meal as well as a few people who sat at the bar having drinks. Our server was very polite and attentive. She served our drinks and did not push us to order until we were ready. The two appetizers we chose were delicious. The pancake had just the right amount of kick to it. The chutney complimented it very nicely. The spring rolls were crispy and flavorful. Not greasy nor dry. When duck is available on a menu, I always order it. Duck is one of my favorite dishes. I was not disappointed. The portion size was ample, enough to make a meal for the following day. The duck was accompanied by an orange glaze and a side of rice. My Aunt thoroughly enjoyed the crispy shrimp which also came on a bed of rice. We ordered the garlic spinach to share. The one disappointment was that green tea ice cream was not available. My Aunt opted for vanilla ice cream. A slice of white cake was offered complimentary as a birthday treat. I sipped on a glass of Merlot. Overall we had a very pleasant and relaxing evening. I highly recommend JOY Asian Cuisine and look forward to experiencing another unique meal.
