The room is simple with white table cloths. Service is efficient, we had a variety of dishes. Kung po chicken, beef chow fun, eggplant with garlic sauce, and salt and pepper squid . Several appetizers too. All fresh tasting and not particularly spicy. Chicken with peanut is average. I have not had memorable since the 70s I really enjoyed the squid and crystal shrimp dumplings. The restaurant seems to get some blue collar patrons after work. I think it's a good sign. Can recommend. Has a good selection of dishes. read more

The food here is always really good, and that's the main reason I keep coming back. Unfortunately, the delivery service seriously needs improvement. The delivery driver was rude, tried to leave without giving me my change, changed the price of my order, and didn't even give me a receipt. When I asked for my change, he gave me attitude even though I still tipped him. The restaurant really needs a better delivery person because the food deserves better service. read more

The food was your typical Chinese fare - the menu is restricted in certain ways to encourage larger spending which I'm not a fan of - EX| Most Chinese food restaurants have about 15-20 combos, this only has 5, so if you wanted something particular you would have to dish out 20+ dollars for a full size entree. 30+ dollars total is far too high a price tag to justify both quality and quantity. I've heard their dine-in experience is much better though, so there's that! read more

Took my son Michael out tonight for his birthday to J.J. Garden for some old school cantonese food. With the never ending tea pot, home made fried noodles with duck sauce,General TSO chicken thats so juicy and Beef chop suey to die for. Where aspirations for authentic and comforting cantonese cuisine are fulfilled. On a dime. The best steam pork Dimsum in queens.#jjgarden read more

My go to for Chinese American in J. Hts, a step above the other options. Fresher tasting and more vegetables like chinese broccoli. The chicken is less rubbery. They also have dumplings and traditional Chinese dishes like roast duck. When you eat there they bring you a pot of tea on request which I love! read more

The food is awesome and the service is great! This restaurant has been in the neighborhood for years and has been a gem.

Basic NYC Chinese food. Some things need more flavor Fast delivery. They have authentic Chinese food also. read more

Great food and service, attractive pricing and attentive staff. It's one of the few "Sit Down" Chinese Restaurants left in Queens, when you enter it reminds me of all the great old neighborhood "Chinese Restaurants" that we once had in Queens:-) read more

No water or crunchy noodles since the pandemic???? Thats what their crude waiter told us today when we dined in.What kind of BS is that?

Good service, good food, and good price. That's how it's done. Other businesses should take notes.

Good if you're craving classic Chinese takeout. Ordered Wonton Soup, General Tso's Chicken, and Fried Chicken Wings via DoorDash. The soup was nothing to write home about, but the wings were crispy and the General Tso's chicken actually had some good spice to it, which some places don't do enough of. Would order from here again. read more

Love Jj's. In particular their JJ's shrimp. I've never found a honey walnut shrimp as good as theirs and it's a HIGHLY RECOMMENDED dish. I've dined in and ordered out and always had pleasant experiences. Food always fresh and delicious. The General Tso's dish is a staple on every single Chinese restaurants menu but what makes theirs stand out is the choice between white and dark meat. I took a pic of my shrimp but way late as I remembered in the middle of devouring it. Do yourself a favor, get the shrimp. 18.95 but most delicious and enough to split into 2 maybe even 3 separate meals. read more

A STAPLE! this food is amazing and has been one of my favorite spots for years. Eating in and taking out has always been a vibe.

This restaurant has been in the neighborhood for more than 25+ years and has been the stable of Elmhurst Shopping Center for generations. The vibe is cool with an OG feel. The food is great and services nice. Although ;) it would be amazing if the food had more spunk and jazz. wit more Chinese decorations of red and gold and new tables, customers would be pouring in. The lady at the Counter (May) is defiantly the "lucky cat" of the place. "yo yo ma" is one of my favorite Chinese classical musicians....Just saying. With the heart by the heart. :) read more

Where do I start.... I ordered the General Tso's chicken, Cantonese Wonton Soup, and Beef Lo Mein. General Tso's Chicken- 1/5- if you like the soft breading of sweet and sour chicken, this is for you. The breading was soggy and served with a watered-down version of something similar to General Tso's sauce. The pork fried rice was bland. Beef Lo Mein- 1/5- Bland, bland, bland...even with soy. Cantonese Wonton Soup- 2/5- Could have been good, but, again, very bland. Overall, this is a no. You can't mask the bland flavor with garlic. What was lacking in flavor was replaced with harsh, bitter, raw garlic. read more

Good food, nice people and great service. All at reasonable prices! My go to for healthy Chinese food. read more

Food was very good. But be careful. I ordered on the phone for a pick up order. The lady at the restaurant said $20 and change. When I got to the restaurant it was $26 and change. The lady is liar, she said I misunderstood. I would believe that, but this has happened three times already. Again food was good. But becareful because they lie about the price when picking up your order. read more

Good stuff! All yummy. Gotta try the pork and cabbage soup and the eggplant in garlic sauce. read more

The best Chinese restaurant on 31st Avenue. If you are disappointed with the Chinese food scene in Astoria, travel a few miles up 31st Avenue until you reach the Jackson Heights shopping center. We were repeatedly told how good the food was, and they were right. We ordered dumplings and honey-dipped chicken wings. With hot tea, the food was delicious. All in all, this is a solid recommendation. read more

They used to offer free delivery, but now they tack on $2 to every delivery, and there is nothing on the takeout menu stating that.

The service was good but the food was just okay. There was a small bar inside. They do have a lunch special.

My father came here to order lunch for the workers working on the home's electrical system. I remembered this place whenever I pass through the community mall. The place is an Americanized Chinese restaurant. My father saw that this place was busy as the other restaurants were closed. Overall I will recommend this place to others. read more

I love JJ Garden it's a little nostalgia what real Chinese food was like Dishes are fresh and tasty And I love the full bar Highly recommend read more

Some of the food in the menu are hit and miss. Service is always good whether it's dine in or out.

Not your usual chinese restaurant, though they include popular items from one. Place is white table cloth setting and spacious. Staff really dont speak much English but enough to get your orders right the first time you speak. I come here for their duck, fried rice and Zombie drink. Ingredients are a bit tweeked, making the dishes delicious in generous portions. Pricing is fair to good. Reccomend! read more

Had lunch recently at JJ's after several years, it was good enough, but not like it used to be. First, they didn't have the same fried noodles as they had before. Their fried noodles now are the same as every other local takeout, dry and tasteless, and you have to ask for them as well. Second, the soup was barely warm and then the fried rice was just cold. Although I went home with a full belly I thought the quality was not as it used to be. I will try again sometime in the future and hope for the better. read more

Not a bad place. Get plenty of food customer service could be better. They just weren't happy to serve you. They have a order to go station to if you don't want to sit down. Not much of a wait ever to be seated. Make sure you ask for extra sauce because when they say they gave it to you already it usually means they gave you one of each sauce. Price range from 8-12$ a plate depending on what you get. I got a large chicken and broccoli with white rice and that was 11$. read more

I ordered chicken broccoli with white rice and my partner ordered fried rice. Overall it was delicious and certainly worth the trip. The menu also had a lot options for those willing to explore. I will say the only thing I didn't like was the appetizers that were served because they tasted kinda stale. Other than that I will come back. read more

The food is pretty good. I love their Mayo shrimp which is kind of hard to find around here. Dishes have been solid and tasty. I also like the spicy fried fish. read more

I work around the corner from here once a month and I have to stop by here for lunch every time. The General Tso is crispy and delicious with an amazing sauce and the right amount of spice. The fried rice is delicious and so is the hot and sour soup. The lunch specials is very reasonably priced and the quality of the food is top notch! Definitely worth a try! read more

Being the only Chinese restaurant in the neighborhood should at least be average-above average but definitely not the case! Upon arrival, the staff was very friendly and sat us down immediately with menus and tea. The waiter dropped off a plate of what seems to be their homemade tortilla chips with sweet and sour sauce on the side (disgusting! Please stop serving this!) We ordered our food and a person in my party asked for recommendations or a chef's special and all of a sudden, the waiter pretended he didn't speak Cantonese and spoke strictly Mando but he was speaking Cantonese to us the entire time! He also said he doesnt know anything the restaurant is known for and its up to us to order what we want. Uh... What? Our dishes: (3 people) - Mixed Veg with fried tofu - Wonton in soup - General Tso Chicken - Satay Beef with Scallions - Singapore Chow Mein (waiter told us not to order this because its disgusting but I actually thought this was the only thing that had flavor) Everything was honestly worst than the usual "Americanized Chinese Food" and this restaurant isn't suppose to be that type of cuisine. One last thing, I noticed the waiters and possibly the manager/owner(?) Going around to every single table asking if they're doing okay, if they needed anything, etc BUT skipping my table. Strange don't you think? Was it because we were the only Asian table? I'm not quite sure but we met eyes with the waiters a few times as they walked by us but still nobody came to our table to "check up on us". Geez, are we not customers? read more

This is my Dad's favorite Chinese restaurant. He likes the set up mostly and the service. The food can sometimes be a hit or miss but it's overall decent. They have a large parking lot that they share with a shopping plaza and also if you have a large party they have special sitting in the back of the restaurant. The staff is nice and helpful and are always ready to assist. I've tried almost every dish on the menu because I've been coming here since I was a child. Whenever I come here we usually eat family style where everyone orders a bunch of stuff and we all just share. The genera tso's chicken is tasty; the sauce can be a little thick sometimes. The roast duck is really meaty and has a nice skin. I always get chicken on a stick it's really simple but so good. Overall, they have so many dishes to try and the price is very fair. I also love the little pineapples they offer after dinner, it's a sweet and refreshing little touch. read more

We usually ordered for pick up and didn't have any issues until we ordered for delivery. The last time we ever ordered from this place, the delivery guy did not like the tip we gave him for a 20 dollar order, we gave him $2 tip. He asked us if that was all the tip we had and when we told him that was all we had for him. He proceeded to point to my pockets and asked me to make sure... In disbelief I apologized and told him that a tip is not mandatory and we really only had $2. He told us that gas is expensive and that he had to drive to us. We live within a 10 block radius. He then raised his voice and said "don't order again if we don't have the money." This was the only Chinese food restaurant that we always ordered from until we realized the rude service was not worth the effort. read more

This is still one of my favorite restaurants. Yes, they did increase their prices, but what restaurant hasn't? It has been a bit tougher to order out, so I make it a treat and within my favorite restaurant rotations. We have done both take out and delivery. Sometimes delivery takes long, but they tell you before you place the order if you're ok with the wait time. The food is always good with decent portions. I'm glad JJ Gardens is still around as it's been tough knowing many other of my favorite restaurants who haven't made it through the pandemic. read more

J.J. Garden (They dropped the "Chan's" from their name). This is one of those places I come to have lunch and when I feel like some old-fashion Cantonese food like Mama would make (if she was Cantonese). The lunch specials are great ($5.30 to $5.75) and there are plenty of parking; instead of having to search 30 minutes for a space on Broadway, Elmhurst or Main St., Flushing. Well, the family finally agreed to try a dinner and we love it; both the food and the price. We pick some of our favorite dishes from other restaurants we like; salted fried squid, fish & bean curd hotpot, spicy eggplant and pan-fried noodles with chicken. We also tried their JJ Garden Steak specialty. All were fresh, delicious and have what the elders call "Wok Mee" (the taste you get when the food is cooked in a really hot wok). The only negative comment was the dishes were too salty. So chef, hold the soy sauce a bite. BTW- you know you are in an old-style Chinese restaurant when they have fried noodle & plum sauce at the table. read more

***FOOD POISONING*** I ate here in Friday, January 18, 2019 for lunch. I ordered a lunch special Roast Pork and Duck over white rice. The roast pork didn't look fresh because I can tell that it has been re-heated. The duck didn't taste fresh either. All in all it was a mediocre lunch. This place has been here for over 25 years and I didn't think that it would cause diarrhea. Diners beware! read more
