Great food! Always consistent & great. Customer service is wonderful. My family has been coming here since 2012 now and we will continue to eat/ order from here. Their shrimp wonton soup is perfect on any cold day! read more

Fast. Delicious . Friendly. I ordered here twice to work then a few times at home. I also dined in with a friend , cute little place, still fast and friendly. I will only say I'm disappointed that intitally there used to be free items and delivery with purchase minimums but they took these off... still gonna eat it read more

NOT THE ORIGINAL OWNERS. Continue to avoid this place. Charged me the lunch special a dollar extra at 2:58pm when I called at 2:45pm. Said it would be 10mins. Didn't quote the price over the phone. And then over charged me even more for God knows what. Prices went up from the uploaded menu here... Used his calculator for a 6.69 item and 7.69 item. How is that 20.20? +$1 for arriving on time and +$1 for ordering 2 things +$1 for him getting my order wrong and +$1 for not quoting a price before hanging up. The new owner is an a$$hole. Keep your food. Avoid this place...Search Asia Delight down the way maybe.   This place used to be great, newspaper review worthy. Read reviews for when the previous owner ran this place and avoid the deceitful price gougers that run it now. Julie, you are truly missed. read more

Delicious Chinese food cooked by their Chinese chef, it's very authentic and food quality is superior compared to other restaurants in the area. I support this restaurant because of their food quality and friendly staff. I recommend this small restaurant if you are craving for Chinese food with excellent food quality and value for the price of their menu. read more

Called to make a big order as in a couple of party trays but this lady who answered didn't understand a word I was saying , passed me to another lady had no clue what I was saying and hung up !!! Like how hard is it to understand a large party tray of broccoli beef and large chow mein like CMON! BAD SERVICE . I'd rate this place 0 if I could read more

I work across the street from this place and I have to hold myself back from going everyday to get the won ton soup- It is quite possibly one of the best soups I have ever had in my entire life. No need to even try anything new (Although I'm sure it would be good) The owners are friendl and the prices reasonable. Parking in the back and simple interior. A must try if you are in the area! read more

I ordered food and had it delivered. The driver called me to ask me to come out to the parking lot to get my food. Once he arrived, he gets out with my food to tell me I didn't pay. I told him I paid for my order online. He tells me no your food is paid for but not the tip. He didn't want to give me my food until I said i would call the restaurant and get a refund. He stated no you have your food but next time time you have to tip the driver. I will never order from this place again. read more

Hole in the wall. Great food and low prices. They have big servings of each entree. We usually order takeout and their turnaround rate is pretty quick. read more

JL Kitchen is probably one of the most overlooked restaurants in San Leandro. I live nearby and I myself would have probably pass on this place if it wasn't for the close proximity. It is your classic "hole-in-the-wall" gem. They have a wide assortment of foods as many Chinese restaurants do. I got the orange chicken, beef and broccoli, honey walnut shrimp, and fried rice. I was surprised with the portions given their attractive prices. Their food is delicious and tasty and one of my favorite Chinese restaurants in the East Bay. read more

Really good delivery. They are fast and good! Good Chinese food. I ordered the salt and peppered pork it was really good. Another one of our go to Chinese food places to eat and have delivery. read more

Be aware!!! Their lunch and dinner food taste like two completely diff chef cooking. We eat here a lot because it's super close to us. Their lunch special is yummy and good deal. But whenever we order dinner it's not the same. Yesterday our meal was so bland. Not so bad for a quick fix Chinese craving. read more

The best chinese restaurant in San Leandro. Foods tastes good and price is very reasonable. read more

See all

This used to be mine and my families favorite Chinese restaurant.... Went here the other day super excited, spent like $50, took it home and it is DISGUSTING! The meat looked GREY even the fried rice was awful! I am so sad that they changed owners! read more

This place is always good, delivery is always fast. I order with my coworkers about twice a week and are always kept satisfied.

New management. Great service! Fresh food! Very friendly!! Thanks for being so considerate of your customers. read more

Say Goodbye to the old J and L kitchen!Under new ownership!After judy was robbed at gunpoint the buisness was sold and the food is horrible!The quality and portion size tanked!The food at J an L use to be so good I will miss it alot.There is no other asian resturant worthy of my buisness is san leandro anymore the town itself is falling prey to many numerous violent crimes and it seems like the mayor,police chief,and city council in san leandro could care less as nothing more than stickers are put in merchant windows to worn robbers.Well i am sure Ian Willis lives no where near san leandro and his minimal efforts to thwart robberys in the city he works doesnt effect him much.I am sure his neighborhood has lots of nice places to eat that are safe as well.I hope he takes a lunch break at the new J and L because it sucks just like him! read more

Amazing Chinese food :) Reminds me of the cooking from my parents. I ordered some Singapore style noodles and chicken wings. THEY WERE THE BOMB, especially the crunchy chicken wings. NOM NOM NOM ! read more

Not a fan! They've changed ownership quite a few times. Walked in today thinking it would be better since they have new menus and the inside looked spiffed up, I was wrong. Girls taking orders had dry personalities and I felt like I was being rushed. The food was ready quick, almost too quick. Came home and I am completely unsatisfied! Pork fried rice tasted like fish and was over salted. Chow mein was decent but over salted. Orange chicken tasted like garlic, with zero orange flavor whatsoever. It almost tasted like everything was made in the same pan. Will not be ordering from here anymore. read more

Picked up, House fried rice, General Chicken, and Eggplant. All the dishes were very hot and very good. Good flavor and not oily. We have ordered there around 5 times, we have always been satisfied. I think this is the best Chinese food place in San Leandro and we have tried many. read more

if i had the option to rate 0 i would. no flavor what so ever!!! the chicken was over cooked in my fried rice, the show fun was mooshy and plain tasting. the rice was not cooked all the way. the kung pao chicken was supposed to be spicy and it wasnt. never again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! waste of money i would have rather went to the davis chinese place near safeway its a small buffet and it is way way way better than this sorry place. look for that chinese place right by wing fiesta read more

Thought we'd give this place a try since it's right around the corner from our house. Sad to say we won't be ordering from here again. I don't know about the inside of the place or customer service because hubby picked it up, but I didn't have any trouble when I called in so I'm giving an additional star for easy ordering... Here's what we had: Beef chow mein: this was simply noodles with onions and pieces of beef. Zero flavor, besides the onions might have been bad. Sesame chicken: dime sized pieces of what might be battered chicken that tasted and felt like mush. Again, no flavor. I gagged. Salt and pepper fish: The only edible dish and was still pretty bland. The batter wasn't crispy... the pieces were really soft but might have been because it was take out. Didn't taste any salt or pepper... Needed more flavor! We had the above three dishes with steamed rice and our total was $28. Big waste on unappetizing food. read more

It's Fast Food and its Americanized. This family owned joint is always packed. The chefs are from China. So they know their stuff. You definitely get more bang for your buck at this funny shaped building. If you've really got an appetitie, and I mean really, no room for wussies here, try to tackle the sweet n sour pork with mongolian beef combo which comes with a hefty serving of fried rice AND chow mein. All this for under ten bucks. Julia, you rock! Oh, and if you're around during the crowded lunch hour call in advance and itll be hot and ready in 10-15. read more

The one and only spot i would EVER order Chinese food and actually enjoy it! I know its full of MSG and really greasy but i like my Greasy MSG filled Beef chow fun! I love their Salt and pepper squid, always makes me smile. I have been going here since my parents moved to San Leandro and when i get the craving to eat Chinese food, I'm here! I took one star off cause they should be open everyday!!!! read more

Ordered last night 30 mins before they closed order total about $42. They brought food quickly and hot. The food tastes a lot better then some of the other places i have gone to in San Leandro. read more

Do not recommend. The food was very greasy and not in a good way. Couldn't finish everything because I could tell it had been cooked a lot earlier and had been sitting out. read more

The shrimp fried rice is amazing! I always get the lunch special in garlic sauce. Most of the time the broccoli is good and crunchy but once in a while I'll get some that are soggy like they've sat in the sauce for too long. Regardless, this is my go to for Chinese food now. It is sooo good and they are super fast and accommodating. read more

Now under new management so came back after 5 years. The dried fried ribs looked good on the pictures so ordered that. It was mostly bones with not a whole lot of meat. I can't remember what else I got. There seems to be mostly non Asians going here. read more

Second time visiting, definitely isn't bad if return forgot a dish to recommend but absolutely encourage anyone to visit

If you're ever craving for soup.. This is the place to get some! The wor wonton soup and hot and sour soup is so goooood and flavorful! Every slurp is delicious! (if you have it delivered, make sure you heat it up first. You'll enjoy it more, extra hot!) read more

Had a late lunch here. They made my food and was tasty. Parking would be tough during lunch. Only spaces I believe. Good food. Good prices.

This is my go to place for delivery when i want to stay home in Pj's and not leave the house lol The food is really good and delivery time is usually under 30 minutes. If you order over a certain amount you get free stuff like a 6 piece rangoon or a 2 liter soda. read more

Has definitely changed. Had it several months ago and was great. Went last night. Had walnut prawns and pumpkin with prawns. Started having strangest sensation of pressure in my head and my voice sounded very far away. My fiancé got a bad headache that still hasn't gone away. Not sure if they use MSG or what but we've felt pretty crappy since eating there. read more

Always good. Nice staff. And they deliver!! We order from here weekly. Always consistant

Ordered delivery and the food was hot, fresh and tasted yummy! Pork fried wontons are off the hook. Sweet and sour fish was delish and the shrimp egg foo young was tasty. I will definitely call for more delivery soon!!!! read more

I order from here often. The food is always pretty good and delivery is usually quicker than quoted. It's a little less expensive than most Chinese restaurants and the delivery guy is always friendly. read more

The best take out spot EVER! The walnut shrimp and shrimp chow fun is my fav. And for appetizers the egg roles and pot stickers

great food. nice people . I typically eat here once a week

JL Kitchen has new management. It's not the same. The recipes have changed. :-( It's ok but definitely not the same.

Love this place just moved to San leandro a day I gotta say that this is by far one of the best things about this place. Not only do they deliver their food is amazing and they give you so much for a great price! Definitely will order from this place again! read more

NEW OWNERS FINALLY! The husband and wife are super sweet. The place looks renovated and I always see customers when I'm passing by. The food tastes so much better than before but very small portions and a bit pricey. read more
