Excellent Service! Wonderful and fresh food! This is my second time here and it did not disappoint, I will definitely be back again. This was my first time having the lunch special and was so happy with the flavor, freshness, quality and quantity of the food. Took a pic after taking a few bites of food. but

Holy smokes this place was a GREAT surprise!! My husband and I saw it on yelp and went to try it. Our bill was $50 When you walk in the place is very cute and quaint. The staff was immediately friendly and welcoming! They're extremely nice! We ordered egg roll appetizers and so before they brought that out they brought out a "gift". It was some fried wontons with some filling omg it was SOOOO good!! They didn't have to do that it was so sweet. I ordered beef and broccoli with half chicken friend rice and half chow mein. My husband ordered the sweet and sour chicken with chow mein. They did not skimp! The beef was SOOOO tender and juicy! The flavor was amazing. The best beef broccoli I've had! My husband said he loved this place so much it has moved to his #1 Chinese food place here.

We were greeted by our friendly server. She was helpful in noting my shellfish allergy and providing recommendations.We were pleasantly surprised when an unexpected appetizer of sesame balls and tofu vegetable tempura were delivered to our table. We were told that Helen , (we believed to be the owner/chef) likes to gift customers appetizers on the house.It was amazing. The free appetizer was amazing, the egg custard was delicious (A MUST), and so was our entree.The restaurant is cozy, intimate and really fun to interact with Helen to give our compliments to her.We also noticed several regulars came in so we knew the food was gonna SMACK.Great service and even better food. This is our new favorite restaurant whenever we are in town.1000000/10. This restaurant is decorated in awards and let me tell you it is well deserved.Thank you, Helen for the great food!Dietary restrictions: helpful with allergy restrictions!

A bit of a hole in the wall but the service is good, food is tasty, and it's family run.

It's a small place with a few tables. BUT the food and service make up for it. The appetizer was tempura veggies. They were delicious and on the house. The serving size was enough to have leftovers for a whole meal. I ordered the rolls to accompany my Chicken Wonton soup and my son's Beef Curry. We both had a boba drink also. He had the mango one and I chose the watermelon. Both were also delicious. If your kid loves the boba beads they will really like their drinks. I had a great time with my son there. Definitely will be returning. The ladies were just beyond sweet and speedy.

Great Chinese restaurant with large portions and the owner gave us a free appetizer spring rolls and fried wonton. You can taste the orange flavor in the orange chicken and the honey pecan shrimp was fried with a light batter and delectable sauce. Definitely a great restaurant to eat at.

Last night my husband and I ate at Jim’s for the first time. The atmosphere is nostalgic, giving that “hole in the wall” vibes, where the best food is often created. It’s a very tiny setting with limited seating, but don’t let that deter you.Upon arriving we were warmly greeted by all the staff. Our server was extremely pleasant and helpful in answering any questions and giving great suggestions.We received a lovely plate of assorted dim sum items as a “gift”. Such a kind gesture as first time guests that truly made us feel welcomed.We ordered Jim’s Special chow fun, steamed rice, sweet&sour pork, oolong tea and black mushrooms and bokchoy. Unfortunately we didn’t take any pictures.I usually don’t care for pork at restaurants because it’s either dried out or is too fatty and doesn’t break down, but my husband loves pork so we thought we’d try it. I couldn’t get enough of these dishes! The pork was fantastic with every bite! The food wasn’t oily/greasy or heavy.We also inquired about other customers orders that looked equally delicious.Again we were thanked by the staff as we left, and we expressed our gratitude for the food and service.The only downsides are the limited seating and parking, but that won’t be stopping us! This little treasure is definitely going on our list of frequented restaurants!Thank you for one of the best experiences of our food endeavors!

Jim's is amazing! They have specials every day of the week, and the staff is the absolute best. We love it here not just for the food, but also the people.Parking: There are a limited number of spots in front, but there is a parking lot to the side
