This is not a dine in Chinese place...but it is MY FAVORITE! I have been going here since I was a kid and have no complaints. I have read all the one star reviews on here and I don't understand what they are talking about...NEVER EVER had a bad meal here in all my 24 years of life going to this restaurant. read more

Good food but the place is filthy inside. Egg rolls are always so greasy but everything I have ever had there is good. And fast prep.

Great food!! Friendly staff! A Restaurant designed for easy takeout with plenty of parking right out front..

I was craving some Chinese food so we made it to go order. Everything was made quickly and fresh to order. I was impressed with the portion sizes. Flavor wise it was OK. Good enough that we would order again, but not remarkable enough to go out of our way to do so. read more

Missing flavor, very sad. Weird consistency. Something was off! Was made quick though

Great food fast. Killer crab rangoons. Family business. Kids front of house. Parents run the kitchen. read more

Found a hair in my food... yikes. (And I know for sure it's not mine because I have a different texture) It was sticking to a broccoli. It's really too bad--I've gone here before for a couple years and never had any complaints. But this does it for me. Beware of the food you receive from Jia Yuan!! read more

Jia Yuan - Hair in the food! - Chinese Near Me - Grand Rapids, Michigan

We decided to try this place on a whim and were very happy we made that choice today. It seems to be a family run business, since the only staff was a mom dad son and daughter. We're happy to support family owned businesses and this will be our go to spot for Chinese now. The hunan beef was juicy and tender, almost like biting into butter. Rice portions were fair, and the egg drop soup was warm and savory. The only small thing that we didn't like, was that the orange chicken dish had too much orange. The orange peels were too thick, making the dish bitter once bitten into. Great food, great prices, and speedy service. We will come back 100%. read more

Friendly staff, good prices and portion sizes. However, I felt the food was a bit underwhelming. I had no issues with the quality, but I didn't find the taste to be that great. The hot and sour soup did not taste like typical hot and sour soup. It was very oily and did not have a lot of flavor. The sesame chicken was mostly breading and very little chicken. I may try it again in the future, but I feel there are better options in GR. read more

Good food but teriyaki beef was dry. Will try something different next time. Always had good service. Food ready on time!

Don't expect anything amazing with the aesthetics when you walk in, or if you come to dine in. But they certainly had a steady flow of take out orders coming in (you could hear each online order as it came in on their order ticker). As for the food, we got their beef & broccoli, chicken lo-mein, and orange chicken. The beef & broccoli was a solid staple, and their orange chicken was good but the orange rhines are thick and bitter if you're not ready for it (but I appreciated them since it helped balance the sweetness out!). The chicken lo-mein wasOrange Chicken the winner out of this order for us, we are looking forward to the next order when we can try more!Lo MeinLo MeinOrange Chicken read more

This is my go to Chinese take out place. I'm glad I have such a quality Chinese restaurant so nearby to me! Good food and prices for large portions. read more

We used to live near here and ate here all the time. I was passing through the other day and ordered some of our old favorites to go. When I picked up my food and paid for it, I started taking notice of the restaurant conditions. I needed to use the restroom before I left and I did, and couldn't miss the conditions in there either. After leaving with my food, I couldn't help but think about the conditions that I saw at the restaurant, and prayed that none of us would get sick after eating the food. Would we used to live by there but it was a pretty new restaurant and was clean and well taken care of. The food WAS very good and reasonably priced, WAS being the key word. As far as the conditions of the facility it was filthy and very worn. The pictures they show are maybe from when it was new, I should have taken some before I left. They must be paying off the health inspectors, because there is no way it would pass any even loose standards. It was the same people working as in the beginning so they must be the owners. The only reason I would ever go back here would be to see if it ever changed for the better. read more

Kung Pao Chicken was really good. It could be spicier, but that's just me. If you go in the winter keep your coat on, i dont think there is heat. Also no buffet like advertised. The buffet is storage. read more

Jia Yuan - Lunch Kung Pao Chicken - Chinese Near Me - Grand Rapids, Michigan

Jia Yuan is easily the best Chinese takeout in the Walker area. I've not once been disappointed with the food I've gotten. The chicken is always cooked perfectly and not at all chewy, the prices are fair and portions are extremely generous. I can easily make two meals from one takeout order. My favorites are the sweet and sour chicken, crab Rangoon, and General tso's chicken. One area of improvement would be that the website needs to be updated. We once went to visit for the lunch buffet but were disappointed to see that there was no buffet set up. Still, the carry out is a great deal and definitely worth it for the price. read more

This restaurant is really great and it's right next door to my house whenever I had cold or feeling sick I always goes to that restaurant for soup and whenever I'm done with work I always grab dinner from that place before heading home so I like this restaurant the people up there I mean the family up there they're very nice and their food price are affordable everything is votable compared to other restaurant yeah they don't have buffet but they do have a nice place to sit down or take out everyone from my apartment complex really like this place including me so this place should be want to three four five star restaurant but for me I would say 10 star restaurant if there was 10 star sorry I don't have a picture to show but everyone knows what this restaurant look like and what this place is read more

This is hands down the best Chinese food in Grand Rapids. The food is always amazing, and the wait isn't unreasonable. Won't lie, the dining area is maybe their only downfall, but the food is so good that it doesn't matter. This place has been open for well over a decade and have been going strong since. read more

This awesome family has been serving up the best food for years!! The General Tso and Triple Crown are excellent!

Classic formula amazing food but horrible place so they don't have to deal with anyone there! Too bad we are eating here! read more

Jia Yuan - Kids are decorates the wall. Pretty cool. - Chinese Near Me - Grand Rapids, Michigan

If I could give this place no stars I would. We're new to the area and we ordered Chinese food from here recently. When I went to pick it up I was appalled by the conditions inside. There were coats and bags all over the serving buffet that's used during lunch, the floors were extremely dirty and the kitchen was in awful condition - dirty, dingy and there were these weird white buckets all over the place. I'm not sure what was in them. Food? Garbage? Who knows but I took our food and threw it out. I was pretty sure my family would get food poisoning after eating here. read more

This is an awesome takeout place! Great quality and of course quantity for the price. Great for starving college kids! (Or hungry recent grads) or generally hungry people. The worst part is waiting for it to cool down! read more

Not really sure if they use chicken or beef - I've tried both. The crab cheese ragoons are OK, but kind of a sour milk taste. I would still go here again, but for vegetable fried rice. read more

Honestly the worst Chinese food I've ever had. Don't waste your time. Proceed with caution. Meat was questionable.

I've been coming here for 15 years and it's still till this day THE BEST chinese food around. I recommend it to everyone that wants chinese food. Crab Rangoon's are the BEST. Eggrolls?? Omg great! Veggie Lo mein has lots of veggies and great portion sizes for good price!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND! Also I've seen some reviews on how the conditions are inside? Yes, it's not no Olive Garden but the people are wonderful and the food is impeccable. Don't judge the food based on the kitchen. read more

This place is great. We've been going to China Chef for a while but it's expensive and the food is not good and we decided to try somewhere new. Found Jia Yuan on yelp and I'm so glad we found it. $40 for dinner for 6 with soup and egg rolls- super value for the amount of food we got and it tasted great. My only complaint is we ordered several things spicy and it wasn't at all next time I'll get extra spicy. I wouldn't care to eat in at this place but this will be our new go to for take out! read more

This place is the best Chinese food around the Walker area. We have been ordering take takeout from them for 2 years now and not once have they failed us their food is delicious. The proportion is really good for the price. My favorite dish is the Singapore mei fun. I highly recommend this restaurant. read more

We get takeout here about once a month and have been for about 10 years. Everything is very good. I like that you can order pints or quarts of most entrees and soups. Everyone gets what they want, it's cheaper, and less waste to get the pints. If we're getting the same thing, the quart is plenty for two. Also, the combination plates have a ton of food and are a really good (cheap) price. read more

Very generous portions and the hot dishes are nice and spicy. I recommend the Chicken w. Garlic Sauce.

Awesome food and priced very well. The chicken was all white meat and the vegetables were very fresh! Will be back soon.

Very well prepared using good ingredients. The food is delicious with lots of perfectly cooked vegetables ( not over cooked).

Food and service is always good. My favorites at Jia Yuan are the Kung Pao, fried rice and sweet & sour chicken. I haven't had everything on the menu. What I have had has been very good so far. read more

Favorite fast Chinese place around. Food is good and the have it ready fast. Great price for a lot of food

Affordable, lots of choices, and great portion sizes. They also have General Tso's shrimp, which I've not seen many other places around here have. read more

This is our go to Chinese take-out place. Their fried rice is good and my husband and son love the sesame chicken. Good appetizers too!
