Love the fact that you can order both japanese and chinese so if you're undecided on what you want you can mix and match to your taste. For me its wonton soup, beef teriyaki and brown rice which for some reason was the best rice I ever tasted from an asian restaurant. Superfast delivery as well and we live 15 min away. Solid spot read more

Great sit down restaurant. Always pleasant and food is awesome. Super clean. Weekly specials are well worth it, and they deliver.

I will never come back again. in order for me to get some fried rice with my meal, I was forced to purchase a1395 portion of fried rice. I ordered the house special, and the seafood was definitely not fresh oh, it also had spicy hot peppers in it... Which were not supposed to be in the food. Oh no I was very disappointed. They redid the restaurant, they put in new chairs and upgraded it... But the food quality went down. read more

Came for dinner with my family. Ordered dumplings and cold sesame noodles as appetizer and we were not impressed. Ordered sautéed string beans and eggplant with shrimp and chicken and brown rice and none were great. We didn't send back the string beans because it was late but they were swamped in sauce and the rice was not hot. We will not be going back here. Food has really gone down over the past 10 years. read more

I really don't understand why anyone likes this place. The food is really mediocre. I've gone here twice and that was two times too many. Try So Far So Good in Lynbrook if your looking for good Chinese food or Shiros of Japan in Carle Place for great Japanese food. read more

Great atmosphere. All the staff says hello and good bye, like they love having you there, this is important to me personally. Everyone's meal was fantastic. The service was great. Our waiter was amazing and attentive. I liked that the menu offered Japanese as well as Chinese. Many choices on the menu. read more

We had a reservation for 5 at 7:00 on New Year's Eve we got there very early at 5:20. We thought it wouldn't be busy but we could barely walk in was so packed. We sat down and put our names on a list along with our reservation. June went by and the people with a 6:00 reservation never sat down and it was already 6:30. People were running around like crazy trying to keep up with the crowd. So knowing that it would be a very long time until we sat down and ate we left and went to a diner because we knew that we would never get in because of the over-bookings. read more

The sushi is mediocre at best. The Chinese food is pretty good but a bit overpriced. The seats definitely need to be replaced.. I'd go again but only if I have to. read more

Large room with comfy seats and mirrored ceiling. I usually get take out and have not been dissapointed. Delivery is always quick. Chicken and broccoli has perfect proportions, chicken fried rice very good. Hubby like General T chicken, and the take out plastic containers are great to reuse. read more

Do not order any if the teriyaki dishes I ordered the shrimp teriyaki. The miso soup was watery as was the salad and the teriyaki sauce. I would not order any Japanese dish here again. read more

Jani is short for Janitorial Staff. The waitstaff really wants you to get the hell out, clean your table and have you pay as soon as you sit down. That's why i call them the jani-torial staff. The sushi box is decent, but boring. The Chinese lunch specials are good. It's best for take out or if you're a member of the Golden Girls club and your going with some friends for the lunch specials. read more

This place is nasty. The decor is hideous and outdated. The leather is old and tearing in the booths. My miso soup was overwhelmingly salty and the sushi fish was low quality and off. My friends got chicken teriyaki with with rubbery chicken, microwaved vegetables and awful teriyaki sauce. The only reason this wasn't zero stars was because of the friendly waiter -Phil A. Mingon read more

We heard so may greats things about this restaurant so I figured we would give it a try. I hate to give a negative review but this place really deserves it. We ordered out and the food was terrible! Some of the dishes had a weird smokey favor like nicotine, so much so, that I told my children to stop eating it because I was truly concerned. Then the boneless spare ribs had a ton of bones (or cartilage) in them, again a serious choking hazard!!! Lastly, the chicken dish we ordered hardly had any chicken in it and the few pieces of chicken that were in the dish were chewy and gross! I hope none of us get sick from this experience. We will defiantly never order from this place again! read more

Never left a place so annoyed as I left this place. Never brought a high chair for our baby, there was a dirty sticky knife on the table, took over 20 mins for waitress to acknowledge us and take our order even though the place was 1/4th full. The food was good. The service was terrible. Never asked if we wanted refills, or if the food was ok, or anything. I was annoyed so I left a 3 dollar tip, and the waitress has the nerve to come back to our table to tell me i need to leave at least 15% tip. We were two people, a baby and a 30 dollar check, how about you take whatever I was generous enough to give you since you were a terrible server you money hungry jerk. Never again. Wash your silverware and get my kid a chair. People demanding what they don't deserve. Disgusted! read more

This place is disguisting. When it first opened in the late 90s, it was a cool place but I think it's all the original furniture and tea pots from the late 90s still. Food is pitiful also. Sushi is horrendous and Chinese selection is mediocre at best. Definitely need to update to attract new customers.... read more

Just ordered from this place at the office. I ordered the lunch vegetable fried rice with the hot and sour soup. The rice was decent the soup was good definitely spicy. I also got an avocado roll which was excellent and a green salad which they gave a generous portion of. Ginger dressing was tasty. I would definitely get food from here again and try something different. Great prices for lunch. read more

Took the family. Nobody ate their food. Could have ordered in at home for half the price and it would have been edible. Never again.

Second time we were here. Still not impressed . Service was ok, food was ok . It's just an ok place, nothing note worthy.

Had dinner with my mom. Between the hours of 5-6pm, they give you a free glass of red or white wine, choice of soup, choice of appetizer n a dessert which is a large orange. The entree portions are small in comparison to the price. We ordered two. A pineapple fried rice and mango chicken. I've never ate a dish where there are more pineapples than rice. The rice got lost between the huge blocks of pineapple, a couple of shrimp and slices of chicken. It was tasty but not plentiful for the $15.95 price. The mango chicken was okay. I had better at vegetarian palate. This was a drive by, I'm hungry,let's go here type of restaurant. We won't be back. read more

Jani is one of my first stops when I set foot in Wantagh. Writing this review makes me miss my family (sister Tammy and brother in law) and all our memories! We have eaten a lot of Jani take out over the years with good memories attached! The dumplings, wontons, and all of the shrimp dishes are amazing. I am a bit of a traditionalist and get a lot of shrimp with vegetables and various sauces. The shrimp and veggies are fresh and all the dishes are delicious! No one can compete! read more

When the hours posted on the door and on your website say that you are open at 11:00 AM, then you should be open at 11:00 AM. When a person walks in at 11:30 AM and is told that it will be another ten minutes before they are open, that is unacceptable. I go out for Chinese food for lunch once a week and I will be returning to my regular take-out place. read more

We have never been disappointed at Jani's! Quality of food is excellent; service depends on your waitress/waiter. You are always greeted with a smile. Portions are very adequate; and décor of tea pots is outstanding. They accommodate large groups and allow you to bring your party cake. read more

Great Japanese and chinese food. The staff is friendly and decor is nice if you eat in. You can also call for takeout. My only complaint is theres no delivery. read more

They need better server at this restaurant they are just not very nice and do not understand you if order by name or the restaurants order number. The food just doesn't taste fresh. I think it's a great location and if completely over hauled (new furniture a nice coat of paint and a staff change) this restaurant can be great . read more

Just got delivery. Food was cold and not like any other Cuisine. food I have had before. If it was possible to give this 0 stars I would. This was disgusting. Lo Mein tasted like curry. Wrong cuisine!! read more

Food is very good and not greasy. Wait for delivery is sometimes long but worth the wait and very consistent. Love the Chicken & Broccoli & Sesame Chicken read more

Decent food. Ok service. The place is a little pricey, but I guess that's what you pay for fresh sushi. I've never had a bad dinner there. There chicken Maki is one of the best dishes they make. read more

My family has been coming to Jani for Chinese food for years, and it never disappoints! Whether we order takeout or dine in, the presentation is always excellent and the taste is consistently good. Their won ton and egg drop won ton soups are delicious and their sesame chicken and their shrimp with walnuts dishes are my favorites. Their lunch specials are the best deal in the area for higher-end Chinese food, and it's a classy yet casual place to bring a group for dinner as well. read more

Gave this place a shot for lunch. Only tasty thing I had was the fried noodles they give each table. Miso soup was very bland, salad was impossible to eat and enjoy without making a mess, and the chicken teriyaki was extremely flavorless. I honestly felt like I was just eating boiled chicken PLAIN. Extremely disappointed. Can't believe paid $30 to have no taste in any of the items I ordered. Will probably never ever come back here. Better off going to Jens Chinese food around the block , or Ichiban for some great Japanese. read more

Food is good, but they always forget something or mess it up. I was missing my entree last time I ordered, and this time they gave me the wrong dish. (I asked for chicken and mixed vegetables with no sauce and they put sauce on it anyway) . Oh well. read more

SPICY, SPICY hot and sour seafood soup. Great shrimp rolls. Good service for a good lunch.

We have always loved coming here, but within the last year or so things have really changed for the worse. They are not friendly anymore, all the waiters look annoyed and aren't friendly at all. They seem to forget about us at certain points and we are just sitting there waiting for our order to be taken or waiting to get the bill for way longer than we should be waiting. And oh yea.. We recently found a long HAIR in our food. It was disgusting, but the way they handles it was even more appalling. Then a few weeks later we heard that friends of our had ordered take out from them and found a piece of plastic and a STAPLE in their food. Jani was at one point a great restaurant, but now I will never eat there again. read more

Great food and an exceptional staff. Jani is always my go-to place for takeout. I highly recommend.

The restaurant is very loud and crowded, which makes have a decent conversation impossible. The service was sub-par at best -- we had to wait forever just to place our orders, and then again to get our (over priced) drinks. The entire meal was actually over priced. The food was bland and the soup tasted like it was reheated and diluted. The portions were large, but the proportion of meat to veg in meat dishes is less than desirable. Definitely not a good chinese restaurant, given the quality and inexpensive menus of restaurants nary a mile away. read more

We get Jani delivery almost weekly and couldn't be happier. Their food is great. Pricing is very reasonable. Delivery is always timely. I would recommend them to any of my friends. read more

Recently went to Jani with friends and family. Below-average food quality (fast food dim-sum, plastic noodles and tasteless sushi). Service slow. Management classless. Dine at your own risk. read more

So, I used to absolutely LOVE this place- great food, never had an issue, came here with my family all the time.... But yesterday, I went here for lunch with my boyfriend and paid the bill. On my way to work later in the evening (I work nights), I realized that I forgot my credit card in the check booklet. I thought, "no harm, no foul. Tomorrow after I sleep a bit I'll go and get it." One o'clock the next day, I get a call from CHASE asking me if I just bought $200 at Nordstrom Rack. Furious, I realize that my card has been stolen, and someone has racked up about $350 worth of stuff. Since I left my card in the check booklet, it can only have been a waiter/bus person. Angry as can be, I storm into the place and demand to speak to a manager to tell them that they have a thief in their staff, and low and behold they DENY EVERYTHING. They said "oh, it must have been a customer, are you sure you left it here? yesterday? No, our employees get out late, they wouldn't have time to do that." Just basically YOU'RE WRONG. My card was left there for less than 24 hours and an employee stole it and went shopping. Screw this place, I'm never going back, and neither should you. read more

Decided to take out dinner tonight. Ordered boneless spare ribs... They were ok, I have had better from them, steamed pork dumplings were good... Happy Family was just ok... Didn't have much flavor. The noodles came with a free soup. Definitely not the best noodles by far. Don't think I would return again. read more

Alright, I used to hate on this place. Not sure why. I needed to start listening to my 13 year old Chinese takeout connoisseur. Ah, I just remembered why. It was the sushi. So, I just started doing what any good businessman does; I used them for what they are good for. And let me tell you, they are good for Chinese takeout. Price is right, food is consistent. read more

While the food is good ( other than the eggrolls, which are very greasy), the management remains rude. We decided to give the place a try after several years, having stopped going because the staff and manager were usually surly. We ordered "roast pork and vegetables" not realizing that the menu said"sliced pork and vegetables" and that the restaurant did not consider these to be the same thing. Our bill had an additional charge for $2 for roasting the pork. Despite the fact that the waiter did not tell us there was a difference between what we ordered and the menu item, or that there would be an upcharge for roast pork, the manager refused to remove the extra charge from the bill and was nasty about it. Such poor customer service means we will not be going back or recommending the place to anyone. read more
