    Wow what a deal. I was getting my car washed across the street and was wondering what to eat and didn't want to spend a lot of money. So I decided to go to JJ Chinese again and try something different. I got the Szechuan chicken dinner combo with pork fried rice and wontons and a soda. All for under $15!! And yes it was made fresh to order since it took about 10-15 minutes to get it! Worth it!

    May 17, 2026 Love this little hole in the wall. Located in a strip mall behind El Pollo Loco, it's a hidden gem for good Chinese food. There's no dining inside so everything thing is "to go". I love their Shrimp Fried Rice and I always order extra shrimp. Their Orange Chicken is also very good, and I get a bag of Fortune Cookies for later snacking. They have a large Uber Eats/Grubhub stream of business. I always go pick up my food but would consider using one of these services in the future. Food is reasonably priced and staff are very friendly. There's both street and lot parking. Give it a try.

    Great deals. A lot of food in dinner combinations and lunch specials. Friendly service too :)

    Egg Drop Soup

    i've been trying to find a good egg, drop soup, locally ever, since moving down here for College, and I have to say, I found one! I love a lot of egg, but I hate mushrooms, and this soup checks. Both of those boxes for me personally. It is also very well priced for the amount that was given! Was welcome and in and what I'm assuming was the owner son helped to check me out. Super nice experience!

    House Special Egg Foo Young (Dinner Combo)

    Probably one of the best Chinese Fast Food joints in the LBC! I ordered this through door dash for my kids because they wanted Egg Fu Young. It's a small shop right behind El Pollo Loco on the East side. We pass by this spot and never had the opportunity to try it. Saw their reviews on their Egg Fu Young and we had to try it. It was so savory and absolutely delicious. I ordered the house special egg fu young and the house combination egg fu young. My son is pretty hard to impress when it comes to Chinese fast food- he is very picky. Well this is going to be our go to spot Chinese food spot!

    All of my faves from here- Orange chicken, fried rice, combo low mein and chicken pot stickers. Yum!

    Solid place for Chinese food takeout! We usually order the orange chicken dinner combination plate with fried rice and cheese wontons with the egg drop soup and they give huge portions-huge plus! I also love the chow mein although it's a tad greasy, but very very delicious! There is plenty of parking and it's easy to pull in and pick up your takeout. Great value for your money here as well. With all Chinese food I just recommend polishing it off while it's fresh because it doesn't re heat super great. But as far as Chinese takeout goes in Long Beach this is one of my fave spots so check them out!

    Great selection, delicious hot food, and service. JJ is another LB Hitter. I appreciate how you can order half portions. This is such a great value!

    Side Wonton Soup for lunch. A little bit if soy sauce and it's perfection.

    Love this place! I used to order delivery from here when I stayed near downtown LB. You gotta get delivery for certain places when living close to downtown, am I right people? (IYKYK) And it has gotten better since the last time I had it. I was craving something from here but could not figure out what until I went through the lunch menu... it was the honey garlic chicken. Yums. I ordered the honey garlic chicken, beef and broccoli and green beans in brown sauce all from the lunch menu. $30 with tip. The lunch options come with an egg roll, choice of white or fried rice and the choice of soup or a soda. Nothing disappointed. Everything on point. They upgraded their fried rice, very nice. The only thing I wish was that they were closer to my current place.

    A friend told me about JJ's Chinese Food, and I'm so glad they did. This is my third time visiting, and the food never disappoints. Whether ordering through DoorDash for pick-up or calling in, the process is always easy and convenient. The prices are unbeatable, and the customer service is consistently top-notch. I attached a photo below look at all this delicious food for just $30! While parking can be a bit tricky sometimes, everything else is a perfect 10 out of 10. Highly recommend JJ's Chinese Food for anyone looking for great Chinese food and exceptional service! I had their garlic fried chicken wings last time and Man oh man they were delicious. Packing flavor inside and out. This place is takeout only.

    Not a bad spot. Food was made to order, so I had to wait about 10 min, which I am totally cool with for fresh food. Mixed chow mein with shrimp, chicken and beef was just ok. Nothing I would drive out to order again, but got the job done. I saw a lot of people coming in and out for take out orders and Door Dash, so they are doing something right. I think I just prefer the steam tray Chinese fast food experience, so I will stick with my China Wok Express.

    Do they have catering trays or provide food for parties?

    I'm not sure you should just give them a call. I'm sure they do. I've seen them packing for a party. It looks like.

    I want to try. Is it clean?

    It looks like it. It's just a pickup food place. Nowhere to sit. I went off the reviews and the reviews were good. The food is super good. Best I've found in LBC

    Is the Kung Pao tofu vegan? Can it be made vegan if it's not vegan by default?

    I get nervous with the phrase "Chinese fast food". Is this just fast Chinese? Or is this Panda Express quality?

    Is the chow menu vegan?

    hello, all chow mein cook with brown sauce. Us brown sauce have some Oyster sauce.

    Do the cream cheese wontons have any meat in them?

    I ordered the cheese wonton and no it did not have any meat. They were fried to perfection

Mongolian beef was yummy and we all liked it but it was very ginger forward. The orange chicken was different, different than what we have ever had before at any Chinese restaurant. The breading was different as well as the taste; they use fresh orange peel in it. It was quite a bit spicy to me, spicier than I like. My daughter didn't care for this version at all. The veggie chow mein noodles were great and my daughter loved them. The inside of the restaurant was very clean and simply decorated. We liked the ambiance. We will for sure go back again.

She did not let me down as we walked in and noticed how truly authentic it was going to look. Chinese decor on the walls and boxes of restaurant supples in the corners. Just as it should be. The bonus was that they had a TV showing the NBA Finals when we arrived. Pretty nice touch and in the back of the restaurant so as not to distract everyone. We went with a couple of our favorite dishes to run along and the Chicken Lo Mein was pretty good. Crispy pieces of chicken and soft noodles and veggies to go with it. We chose to get Mongolian Beef and it was absolutely fantastic. Crispy celery, green onions and decent sized pieces of meat in a terrific sauce. I would love to try to replicate that. My wife wanted a shrimp dish so she ordered the honey walnut and it even looked good to me when they brought it. She loves egg rolls, so she got a four piece and said they were pretty good. My biggest wow of the visit was their vegetable fried rice. MY GOD. I dont know what they season or flavor it with, but every fork full of rice that i ate, it was this sense of flavor that reminded me of butter or something else. I really loved the sensation i experienced from this particular dish. I am really curious on what it actually is. I will definitely be ordering out or coming in for Chinese because that reminded of many other places that put out fantastic dishes.

To be honest, the fried rice was a nice way to break the monotony of just plain ole white rice. I'd you like a good value, the entrees are also proportionally very generous. I thought both were quite good. You get plenty of protein and each dish tasted exactly how you'd expect them to taste. Highly recommend L V if you're in the mood for good ole Chinese food.

The flavor is alway great and every bite, flavorful. Of course the only place that I alway get the boat noodles. I've had it at other places but this is my favorite in Long Beach.

The lunch special provides generous portions, with plenty to bring back. What really stood out, was how conscientious, attentive, and polite both the waitress and host were to us. As we were leaving, my wife asked the host if there had been a change in ownership or chef recently...he seemed puzzled, saying it's been the same for the past many years (family owned and operated). L17. General Tso's Chicken ($12.75) L18. Shredded Pork with Garlic Sauce ($12.75) L25. Shrimp with Snow Peas ($13.75) All the lunch specials come with choice of soup (egg drop or sweet and sour), egg roll, and choice of carb (steamed rice, fried rice, noodle). Since we ordered three dishes, got to try all of the additions. I liked both the soups. The egg roll was served hot out of the fryer, but had the typical mushy 'La Choy' frozen egg roll filling that I dislike. The noodles were more like spaghetti noodles than lo mein. The fried rice was simple, with just egg added (which was fine). As for the main dishes, all the ingredients and sauces were solid. The seafood dish came in a white sauce which was OK, but had plenty of shrimp, water chestnuts, and peas. The chicken dish was good since it was served fresh, with the typical food service provider dark meat chicken chunks. The garlic sauce in the shredded pork was good, and something we would get again in other dishes. The pork was all loin and would be a good base for other dishes as well.
