Had high hopes but unfortunately was left disappointed ?Had the meat wontons,however, no meat inside. The lomien noodles were not lomien noodles but similar to ramen noodles and they were overcooked and mushy with very little meat for $16. The egg foo young was bland and not appetizingThe white rice was poor. The eggroll and sweet and sour pork was good.The prices online are not current so expect to pay more for your order than anticipated.Do not recommend.

I have been coming here regularly since I was a small child. I’m now 57 years old. The food I get today is the same as I ate as a child. It is old school Chow Mein and no one does it better.The #1 is awesome:Chow Mein, Egg Foo Young and Fried Rice is simply one of my favorite meals EVER. Never had a bad meal here in the hundreds I’ve had.They have tables but it’s really a take out place.Affordable, Cash Only.Jins Rules!!!!!
The best take out in The north metro. Voted many times as the closest to the Nankin for those of us who remember!

We used to eat at jins whenever we could. Over the last ten years. So today, we came from Big Lake to get 4 different orders ($46.--) to take home for a great lunch!! We were given, white rice-barely cooked hard grains, burnt egg foo young, chowmein with celery blanched--not cooked. We were all thoroughly disappointed and will not make the trip again. Not taking the time to cook a meal the right way is never a way to keep good customers!!!!!

Even though we’ve moved 30 minutes away, we come back for chow mein every chance we get. It’s the best.
Ewww the General Tao's chicken was not what I have ever had. Literally threw my food in the garbage. Wasted my $. It's like sweet and sour chicken soaked in sauce with peppers, onions, celery.

I learned very quickly I am not a chow mein fan. Their fried rice and lo mein dishes are fantastic, I usually try to come here once a week.Very fast service and extremely fair pricing.

Asian restaurant that has been in the area since the 1950s. They only take cash/check. No credit or debit cards.First visit:Called for takeout. Was told see you in 10 minutes! Very fast!Fantastic fried rice. Kids liked orange chicken.Second visit:Called and picked up food. Again courteous and fast.Fried rice won the show again. Orange chicken also good again. Got chow mein, it was decent. Unfortunately it was downhill from there. Egg rolls, just like frozen ones. Potstickers had overly dough taste and inside it was bland. Lo mein is also very bland like the forgot some seasoning.. Egg coo young was again almost flavorless like other items. And for the finale... Cream cheese puff that had literally almost no filling.Maybe I will come back when close by, but I will stick to the fried rice.

It’s hard to find old style chow mein. And fried rice without peas and carrots nonsense. Only issue is no debit cards. Who carries real money anymore?
