Wow! I was craving spicy seafood noodle and this place happened to be 5 mins away from my house so I randomly came here to to-go seafood noodle and their combo friend rice. WOW, mind blown!!! Didn't expect it to be this good!!! SO GOOD! Both were delicious, but the fried rice is AH-MAZING!!! Portion size is great, and the fluffy rice, tender meat, and well seasoned rice beats any Korean-Chinese K-town restaurant out the park!!! Don't knock this place just bc of the exterior, or few reviews!!! Please give this mom/pop restaurant a try and you won't be disappointed!!! My new favorite Korean Chinese spot! read more

Jin Chinese Kitchen - 27. Combo Fried Rice - Chinese Near Me - Los Angeles, California

You've got to check out this little gem! The food is both delicious and affordable, making it totally worth a visit. Just be prepared for a bit of a parking hunt; there are a few shared spots, and street parking might be your best bet, especially with the neighboring drive-through. It's a small, intimate place, seating maybe 15 people at most. Don't miss their lunch special with rice and soup - the soup has a nice warming spice to it! Service is great. They served cold tea instead of water. read more

Definitely a hidden gem in Los Angeles. Not your fancy restaurant, but a hole-in-the-wall that I'm so thankful that I found. It's also a mom-and-pop shop which I am more than happy to bring my business here. This place is considered a Korean-Chinese style restaurant where their dishes are known for their jja-jjang-myun (black bean noodles) or the jjamppong (hot and spicy noodle soup). My husband and I usually go to a Ktown chain to get this dish but my heart is set on coming back here for my fix. It's definitely a small restaurant in a plaza that has a good amount of parking. I was able to find a spot easily and so did my friend. I also noticed there was ample street parking as well so parking shouldn't be a problem. As you walk in, it's a very old school, run restaurant where they have wooden menu's and an A/C box running, with an old school tv. Two elderly gentlemen came out with a tea for our drink and then we ordered the black bean noodles (plain) and a stir fried version of it as well as the hot, spicy soupy noodle dish (my favorite). Oh and a happy family seafood dish to share with a friend, my husband, and me. Mind you the portions are pretty decent for what it's worth and had a good amount still by the time we were all done eating. I liked everyone one of the dishes especially the stir fried version of the black bean noodles and the spicy soup. I ate it growing up as a child and it brought back those memories. The soup isn't too spicy anyone who is concerned of spice levels. And I really liked the happy family seafood dish. I never ordered something like that before but my husband had mentioned it's a premium dish that you normally eat with the jja-jjang-myun (black bean noodles) or the jjamppong (hot and spicy noodle soup). As far as service goes, the two gentlemen were sweet and absolutely refilled our teas often. You can tell they were there to provide good service. Luckily this spot is close by my work so I can't wait to introduce this spot to my coworkers. Don't let looks deceive you as the place itself may not be charming, but the food is delicious - I mean, look at the other reviews. You just have to try this place for yourself. read more

I always got the kangpao chicken with with rice. And a spicy soup on the side. Had been going there for a while. 2 men are there most of the time. About 2 weeks ago or so I went. They need to clean . Like organize their things, sweep and give it a retouch on paint. It's looking dirty. Very very dirty. The service isn't ok either anymore. I will not be going there anymore . read more

On my first visit, I really loved their jjajangmyeon. The noodles were so fresh and chewy, but on the second, the noodles were really soggy and ended up feeling very dry after absorbing all the jjajang sauce. It was pretty disappointing, especially since the wait for it was 20 minutes. The tang su yuk is pretty good though. Pork pieces were pretty tender and the sweet and sour sauce was more sweet than actually sour, which I prefer. read more

Great little mom and pop shop. Seems like 2 brothers running the show but idk haha. I've been watching a lot of kdrama lately and jjajangmyeong has been my top craving. Definitely had to order that plus the fried dumpling! Food was delicious. The dumpling wrappers were pretty thick so I probably wouldn't order that one again but everyone kept ordering the jjamppong. I definitely need to come back and try that one! read more

This place has a parking lot but it's a small parking lot that is shared with other businesses so, I ended up parking on the street, in front of the parking lot. The place is a tad bit hard to find just because it's sandwiched between other businesses but I found it. I ordered for pick up and the man who was helping me was nice. As for the food, it was better than what I expected. The portions are very generous and the dishes are tasty. read more

I ordered delivery from this place while I was staying at a hotel in DTLA. They were so quick and efficient in their delivery! I was lured to this place because they had Jjajang Myun and Jjampong. Then I exlored their menu further and I found they had great lunch specials for Kung Pao Chicken, sauteed Green Beans, and more. I LOVED this place for everything they were able to offer as a delivery. I'll for sure come back here the next time I'm staying in DTLA! read more

I tried the won ton soup 3 days ago, I have been coming back everyday since.. Today is day 4. Delicious and full flavor.... Gonna try more on the menu soon as I'm over this bronchitis.. read more

In a nutshell: a whole more than just a hole-in-a-wall __________ At first glance, Jin Chinese Kitchen is more underwhelming, a small, dingy hole-in-the-wall sandwiched between two other larger restaurants. Inside, you're greeted by one elderly waiter resembling Flash the sloth in Zootopia, standing amidst a few rickety wooden tables and chairs and couch booths with faded leather. Sitting there, sipping hot water from styrofoam cups, you feel like you've been dropped straight into the streets of China. Despite the Korean signs hung all around the walls and splattered across the menu, Jin Chinese Kitchen is indeed Chinese, and the inconspicuous exterior belies the surprisingly good taste of the food. The Orange chicken bowl with rice surpasses that of Panda Express, striking a nice balance between the juicy, crunchy exterior and the succulent meat underneath. I ordered the Broccoli beef bowl with rice. I will die on the hill that steamed broccoli with sauce is one of the best yet most simple vegetable dishes ever. While the beef was tougher than I'd have liked, the broccoli was perfectly soft, but not soggy. I personally would have preferred more vegetables than beef and rice portion-wise though. General Tso's chicken bowl features all the expected-tender chicken in small chunks, stray slices of soft carrot, sprinkles of crunchy peanut- that is neither epically bad nor outstandingly good. Note: the rice tastes best after a thorough mixing, where each fleck is coated completely in the mildly spicy sauce. The noodle bowls are gigantic and the rice bowls were pretty large too, so our table turned into a buffet, each person partaking in all the other dishes. Small bowls of red soup were also distributed, which, according to my friend, tasted exactly like "instant noodle water." For my group of two hungry families looking for a quick, inexpensive lunch stop during a road trip, Jin Chinese Kitchen did the right trick. The aesthetics might not be at the highest standard, but when you've been stuffed in a car with rambunctious kids and exhausted parents, the food will most certainly satisfy. read more

Jin Chinese Kitchen - Broccoli beef bowl with rice - Chinese Near Me - Los Angeles, California

A small mom and pop shop with quick service. It has couple tables inside for seating and shares a small parking lot with el pollo loco. My toddlers loved the black bean noodles and fried dumplings. Overall, the food tastes like the Korean Chinese food that I grew up with, nothing trendy/fancy. Will definitely be returning to try their other items on the menu. read more

Jin Chinese Kitchen - Spicy Cham Pong (Jjampong) - Chinese Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I was craving wonton noodle soup and I can tell you that they do not serve authentic Chinese food. I ordered the wonton noodle soup and they used some random noodle and some random pieces of mixed veggies and some wonton made out of dumpling skin some broth that's definitely not wonton soup! I know my wonton soup when I tasted it and I was extremely disappointed. Sad meal for $10. After, I went to El Pollo Loco to order some actually fulfilling meal because I was still hungry but mostly disappointed. read more

Food tasted great, fast service, generous portions and great price. The owners there are super nice

Love this place! Good prices for the amount of food you get. Whenever I eat other chinese food I always feel so gross and it feels so greasy to me, but this place is definitely not like that, I don't even feel guilty lol (maybe because it's korean/chinese? Idk). I can't even say what my favorite thing is because everything was so good. Today we ordered the Stir Fried Cham Pong, the Spicy Cham Pong, the Orange Chicken Lunch Special, Ja Jang Myun and the Sweet and Sour Pork. I am very happy to have all this food to enjoy all week long. Last time we ordered from here my roommate and I were hungover and it was the most amazing thing to eat literally all day long haha, so this is our go to for those days. And today this was a nice way to just celebrate Single Awareness Day. read more

The food here is yummy!! The portions are big and the flavor is nice. It's definitely more lowkey but it's worth giving it a try!

Jin Chinese Kitchen - Chinese Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Open untill 9? We walked up to door at around 8 and if not earlier. The worker/owner/whatever looked at us and locked the door. He would not respond. Or did not speak English. This place obviously is destined for fail. Very poor customer service and the only reason we would go here is because it was close to where we were staying. Be prepared to be in the ghetto with lots of homeless. Spend your time and money elsewhere and be safer. read more

Went today for the first time, and the food was amazing. We ordered the Kung Pao chicken bowl and the black bean noodles. Both were amazing. Will definitely go back. read more

Excellent food and friendly service! Really an unexpected gem! If you are a discerning gourmet and taste matters, this is THE PLACE to dine in or takeout. read more

Food is great however I don't like that they keep charging me different prices all the time. Like online says one thing in person is like $3 more like wtf Overall it's good food just fix the menu and prices ! read more

Good jjamppong. The noodle is a bit more chewy than the other chinese restaurants (which is a good thing), and despite the average quality of the seafood mix used for the soup, the end result was pleasantly surprising; part of it is because of generous amount of vegetables they put in. The hygiene of the place is a little concerning (which is why I didn't touch the water nor the side dish) but still giving the 4 stars nevertheless - because of the good soup. To the celebrated food critics out here - For the price, the foods are okay. If you want some Michelin experience, please go find yourself $$$$ restaurants nearby instead (it's dtla for gods sake) read more

Yummy... excellent. Arrived hot and tasty. I ordered orange chicken with noodles... good flavor and a generous portion. Hubby ordered chicken chow main.. came with white rice.. kinda strange.. but cool... both came with a spicy soup.. yummy and they gave us some seasoned cabbage too. This was a perfect lunch... will certainly order again read more

New Chinese Restaurant in town. I didn't expect real Chinese restaurant (not one of those fast food Chinese restaurant) to open in this neighborhood since location is away from main stream. I have tried Cham-bong (seafood hot noodle soup) and I'm very satisfied. Compare to the price, bowl had lots of seafood such as mussels, shrimps, clams, crabs inside. Plenty of food. They serve many authentic foods and will be back soon to try other dishes. Found out this place just opened 2 weeks ago. Customer service is excellent. I just love it when servers are full of energy and serve you a smile. read more

Horrible service when placing an order. Incoherent staff! we were speaking extremely loud over the phone but it's as if they weren't listening and kept saying huh. This was our first and last experience we were so turned off by customer service that we didn't even get the food. read more

What a gem this place is beyond amazing authentic great tasting food. I've been coming here since it opened

This place is LEGIT. You have to try the korean black bean noodles ( Jjajangmyun) and the spicy seafood noodle soup (jjangppong). If you love sweet and tangy you must order their (Jin special shrimp). This place is bomb I definitely recommend. I also love that you can make the soup spicy if you ask them too. read more

I'll never eat here again after getting food poisoning. Now I'll have to throw away everything I ordered.

Small restaurant a hole in the wall. But this Chinese Restaurant run by Koreans is the bomb. Food is tasty and servings are generous. I've had the seafood soup, chicken chow mein and tofu Kung Pao all worthy of reordering again and again. Highly recommend. read more

I guess this is a new Korean-Chinese kitchen that is known throughout locals. This house, despite the low amount of reviews, prepares your take-out food fast, noodles are al dente, fried rice is crispy in rice and soft. I had the seafood jjampong and the seafood was fairly fresh and the soup was hot and a kick of spicy. read more

This place was good. We ordered the orange chicken, veggie chow mein, and dumplings. Orange chicken was good and flavorful and so was the chow mein. They weren't your usual chinese dishes taste wise, but close enough. I also didn't feel like they used MSG... they may, but I didn't feel any of the effects I normally have after consuming chinese food made with msg. Hubby liked the dumplings. They had wayyyy to much sausage mixture in them, but I'm also not a huge meat person, so this is probably more personal preference. Anyways, food was delivered in a good time and was packaged well. We spent $29 which wasn't bad. I'll order from here again for sure. There aren't many good chinese places downtown that are open in evenings and weekends, that also deliver, so this place will do! read more

My new favorite Korean Chinese restaurant. Tastes better than any other Chinese restaurants in Koreatown. Its a little out of Koreatown but its so worth it. Portions are great, noodles are nice and chewy, Mandoo is to die for. Jjajang Noodle is the best and can say its way better than any other place. Takeout is great, and dine in would be better but takeout only due to covid protocol. read more

This new restaurant hits all four corners amazing food, authentic food, spot on service good prices. Their fried rice, seafood noodle soup, dumplings and beef and broccoli are my fav go to dishes. No games. They also deliver free with $20 dollar order read more
