    We ordered takeout. It was easy to order online. The food was ready early. The pickup and payment went well. Slight irritation with the default tipping choices. The on-site dining room is bright and clean. We ordered pan fried dumplings 3/5 (more like deep fried, filling is good), Singapore noodles 4/5 (needed more spice), and sesame chicken 4/5 (some pieces were quite good and others overcooked).

    I've been eating at the Joy Luck Restaurant for many years through several changes of hands of owners. These guys have had it for a couple of years and they're doing a good job. It's not a fancy restaurant by any means. Actually would probably be something on the par of a hole in the wall to some degree. But, the menu is fairly extensive in terms of anyone could find something on the menu to like. Most of the time the food is good. Not great but not bad. For a town this size it will do. When it is good it's very good. What makes it special is the fact that they have an individual there who takes pride in his restaurant. His customer service skills are amazing. He continues to deliver the curbside food making it very convenient for people like me. And he always answers my questions and works to get my orders to my specifications. I like their wonton soup, Singapore rice noodles, and the Mu Shu dishes.

    Thebomb.com. Absolutely phenomenal and everything I look for in a Mandarin style restaurant. I felt like a kid again having my first bite of something something wasn't meatloaf or spaghetti. And even though I've had thousands of noodle dishes over the years this was what I've been looking for the whole time. We got the House Chow Mein and the Singapore Noods. The Chow Mein has beef, chicken, and shrimp. No stupid vegetables to ruin my entire day. Maybe some cabbage or something but nothing intrusive. The Singapore Noods were flavorful with massive chunks of chicken. Mildly spicy and stuffed with capsicum. No one's perfect. I don't live anywhere near Kingston but will make trips here to eat.

    Visited the establishment on 1/13/19. Service: 5 star Food: 4 star Management: 5 star Expense: $$$ Value: 4 star we decided to walk-on to the edmond-kingston Ferry on Jan 13th, 19 for an ice cream hunt in Kingston. After arrived Kingston, it was freezing, but with a lot of sunshine, we decided to do a little walk along route 104. Originally, we were planning to try fish-n-chip in one of the lounge bar (we did a little food search at home before hand), but when we walk pass by this little shopping plaza, we were surprised to see that there was a Chinese restaurant in the corner. We then decided to check it out. It was about 2-ish pm on a Sunday, so understandably that the place is empty. We were immediately greet by this young Asian. The dinning area feels old (aged), but relatively clean. However, depends on the time of the day, there were several seats that have sunshine that blind your eyes (yes, that's right... the BIG BIG BIG sunshine blind your eyes in the winter of Puget sound area, I kid you not!) The waiter was very nice and offer us to switch to a different seats so that it won't be a bother to me. When we checked the menu, we immediately realized that this is one of those "Americanized Chinese Food" menu, which I have been craving for for a while. Now, the food time~~~~~ we ordered hot & sour soup (this is my must order when trying a new Chinese restaurant), Orange Beef, and black bean Chicken. There is not much to say about hot&sour soup. Its a very typical taste of hot&sour soup that you can get pretty much everywhere around here. However, one thing I love is that its not overly salty. Orange Beef..... OMG... I would give this a 10 stars!!! Each beef chuck was properly bread and deep fried. The keys is that in more places that I had tried, deep fried was not properly done, so that texture / tenderness of the meat is soft, sticky, and weird. Joy Luck really MASTERED this dish!! its nicely done on the bread, and taste crunchy, sauce is not overly sweet, just perfect! Their orange beef totally blow up my mind! This is the one I will love to keep going back for~~! and the black bean chicken, it seems to be the human-styled taste, that my gf said its a bit on the sweet side, but we both like it. The only nit pick I have is my gf ordered lunch special combo that came with a cup of soup. As I mentioned before, I always order hot and sour soup on every new Chinese restaurant that I tried. However, they won't allow me to order a cup of hot & sour soup. I can only place a full order from the menu, which is too big for myself. That's the only nit-pick complaint that I have. As far as Bang for the buck goes. It is near by the Kingston Ferry Terminal along 104. So unless you are local, or have planned a trip to the island, or else you will have to pay for the Ferry to get to it, and becoming an additional cost for it (we did the walk-on, so round trip is a lot cheaper). However, when ignore the cost of transportation, the price is aligned with the Chinese restaurant everywhere around the area. So I'd say its fair. Our overall experience is very pleasant. Its not a fancy or a traditional Chinese food. However, if you are looking for an "Americanized-Chinese Food" to try, this one I highly recommend.

    We came here on a lark, being a little over a mile away after morning appointment. We read the…read morereviews, Chinese food sounded good, so we came by. We were not disappointed. Definitely a no frills place, but it's family run and the food is good. We arrived around 12:45 on a Sunday, at the end of the lunch rush wave. Worked out really well: our server Frank sat us right away, we ordered, and were eating our first dishes within minutes. Perfect! Because we were starving! I had a hankering for pork bao, which I hadn't had in a long time. They were decent. My girlfriend is vegetarian, so all other dishes were vegetarian: dry-fried string beans, general Tso's tofu, and hot and sour food. More than enough for the two of us, and very good and satisfying. Note: General Tso's is usually made with chicken and we asked if it could be made with tofu instead. They had no problem with the request. Portions are ginormous, so bring your appetite!

    Came here on a weekday night. This is a little hole in the wall place, no frills, family owned,…read morenothing fancy but good food. Given that this is called xiaolongbao house, we should have tried the soup dumplings, but since there were two of us, we got the stir fried green beans and spicy boiled fish (shuijiuyu) as well as some white rice. The spicy boiled fish was DELICIOUS: so spicy, flavorful, with generous portions. The green beans had good flavor but I wish they were crispier. We had a ton of leftovers. We will definitely be back for the other menu items.
