This place got my pick up order all wrong and when I called the person denied making the mistake. Stated "that's what you ordered". My order is always the same. And did not offer to fix it. I have not been back since. The food was mediocre in comparison to other local Chinese restaurants. read more

I have been waiting for 40 min... still no food China joes, more like China no's Don't waste your time read more

Went with my husband for the first time and received exceptional service. Amber went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of. She was helpful and recommended a great dish! It was our first time and we will definitely be returning. Thank you Amber! read more

Awful. Went for lunch special. They have one per day of week which is just one of the choices from its express menu. I could not understand cashier. I ordered luncheon special and an egg drop soup. Soup was like dishwater with peas, carrots and corn. Chicken (kung pao) edible but not given fried rice (although ordered) and lo mein was slime. To boot got a fortune cookie with no fortune inside. Save your $ and go elsewhere. read more

I had such a go take out meal here! The service was very friendly and the food tasted so good. I love supporting local businesses with all this stuff going on. I orders so many different things and I can complain about any of it. The highlight of it all was definitely the Moo shu pork! Nothing was dry and everything had great flavor. I'm glad I can enjoy a small hole in the wall like this place. read more

Had home delivery with Grubhub during our trip last week. Pot stickers were soo good. The chicken Lomein was very flavorful with wonderfully cooked noodles. Had two different items with rice noodles, one beef and one pork. They were delicious. Paper wrapped chicken and friend shrimp were very tasty. Glad we ordered a large order to have some left over for snacks. Over the next two days we ate every bite. Thank you China Jo's for your quality and attention to flavor. We will visit again when we are next in town read more

Good American Chinese take out place. Reasonable prices, friendly service (no language barrier). We have enjoyed Mu Shu Pork, Mongolian Beef, pork lo neon. Recommended! read more

I had a horrible experience picking up my Mobile order I felt discriminated against, i told here my name at least 4 or 5 times and even showed here my ID to prove my identity but she would not give me my order unless I showed her my name on my phone with my order information read more

It's not the hole in the wall Chinese Food that I'm used to in OC and LA but the closest thing available in the desert. Over priced but again don't have much of a choice. Really wish they had Cashew Shrimp that shit is fire. read more

This place is a joke... tried it because wok around seems to be slipping in quality. Ordered online with plenty of time and left specific instructions on no vegetables in my food. When I arrived they give me this that's there's only a little vegetables in my food which left me very unhappy. So I when asked the manager if she could make it right she was rude and told me that I had to wait 45 mins. Aldo told them this was the last time I'm gonna order from here and she said fine we have lots of customers so.... Just on the attitude of ownership I say cancel this place and spread the word to others that this place only cares about money and not customer service or their customers who keep their pockets filled. Very upset at the way I was treated by the owner herself. read more

I like how they have the menu printed in big pictures right where you order. The lady at the register was very nice and helpful. They do give out big portions of food the price is not bad either. read more

China Jo's - 27. Orange Chicken A La Carte - Chinese Near Me - LA Quinta, California

Tasty Chinese food and is reasonably priced. Excellent Pad Thai as well as Chinese dishes.

My wife and I wanted to Chinese food as we stayed at our hotel, Renaissance Indian Wells, and this was in close range for Uber Eats. Well, we ordered chicken chow mein, orange chicken, and a pint of white rice. The food arrived in a very timely manner which we were very happy about, and the food was very hot still so we know that it was freshly made. However, once I opened the packages, to my surprise half of our order was unfortunately incorrect. We ordered the chicken chow mein, and we received chicken chop suey. I noticed a considerable amount of bean sprouts, water chestnuts, etc. and noodles. I reviewed the menu, and realized it was wrong. On our receipt, it showed chow mein. Maybe for that reason, the chicken in the chop suey had no flavor to it. Next, orange chicken wasn't the very best I've had, but it the orange glaze was tasty, and the rice was very fluffy, just the way we like it. The food wasn't bad, and the service was spot on as far as it being timely, and still very fresh. Not to mention, they have great portions!!! The orange chicken was more than enough alone for me and my wife. The two stars are lost because of the wrong order provided, and the food being average. read more

The food at China Joes it's to die for ! I love the food it's made fresh to order. The food is not fitting under lamps your order hits the sizzling pan the minute you decide what you want . Go Joe!! read more

Friendly staff, fast service, HUGE portions, clean area and good food. I ordered sweet and sour pork and chicken chow mien and I will order both again. I would come back in the future. I dropped by around 7 in a weekday and order was ready in 15 minutes. read more

Brown, tasteless rubbish is what everyone used to have to chow down in the small towns of Canada where I grew up where Chinese food was meant to be exotic but instead kacked out on plates from bland, uninterested immigrants who literally threw up what they remembered of what way more interested elders used to serve them before they had to get their hineys to a new world that didn't know any better. I was even way back then with zero references for what food should taste like, thought "this is awful". So well done to this unwittingly retro restaurant for sticking to old school awfulness and making sure the world puts the "Can't" back in "Cantonese" . I was so damn hungry I could have eaten my own flesh, but this hideous throwback to the kind of careless, senseless, flaccid style of cooking that puts to waste even the time taken for poor people to make rice happen is an assault that screams with every choking-down trying-to-eat-it moment "THE JOKE IS ON YOU FOR ORDERING ANYTHING FROM THIS PLACE". I'm sitting here hungry as hell and unable to chow down any more of the crappy rice, the "sweet and sour soup" that looks like (and I"m sure tastes like) the diarrhea I had for weeks one time in Bali, and icky balls of I guess pork with the old school pork sweet and sour that looks like the turds of unspecified beasts you certainly don't want to spoon on your plate. Shame on everyone to do with this repulsive assault of a cooking hovel. Close down and do the world a frikkin favour, the emergency wards are too crammed already and two fingers down the throat is the only way to approach your style of cooking. Seriously the worst food I've had since I was born. Afterbirth would be a lot better. read more

This food was so bad I took one bite of each dish and threw it all out. My dog did like the meat once I washed all of the sauce off of it. If you have the option of canned soup go with it. read more

Small hole in the wall, in the strip mall Chinese take out. Good, tasty food. Service leaves a bit to be desired Lots of pictures to help you decide. read more

Really happy with our first time delivery order. Food was hot and fresh. Wor wonton soup great on a chilly day. I could see this being a go-to sick day soup formy family that lives in the area. They were really happy to find this place. Good crispy fried shrimp, decent crab rangoon. Yang chow fried rice and veggie lomein were worth it too. read more

Food was good and portions reasonable. Small note: if you're getting delivery to hotel room, the driver may not actually knock to notify the food had arrived. We called after 40 minutes to inquire, only to discover he left our order in a box at our room door. No knock, no call, nothing. Next time we will meet the driver in the lobby. read more

I eat at Joes every week I'm in town (alot!). We're talking takeout. Not always perfect, but always good. read more

You guys HAVE to do better on your sauces. Can't tell between them all and watery please do BETTER. IT would take it to a newer level if you worked on the flavorings. Chinese sauces are generally robust wether garlic, terryakii, or mooshoo or orange- Do BETTER. The entrees that all share the same meat or seafood - starting to all taste the same ... on the bland side. I couldn't taste Any terriyaki on the chicken and it's all sitting in a soupy bottom??? Please.... Stronger and thicker and MORE of with each dish will go a long way!!!! It used to be much more flavorful yearsss ago. What happened??? read more

Do not recommend. Chicken salad was horrid, actually not even sure what the alleged chicken chunks were. Broccoli beef was like eating rubber and moo shu shrimp came without the pancakes, so pretty much useless. Won't be ordering from them again. read more

We've ordered many times from Uber Eats and the food usually gets here hot and tasty. All their food is good for the desert, but their hot and sour soup is phenomenal. Possibly the best I've ever tasted. The meat is tender with large pieces, lots of tofu and the seasoning is absolutely perfect. Would order anytime!!!! read more

Lots of choices. I like Mongolian chicken the most. The sauce is delicious. I bring my kids here every weekend.

My experience here was horrendous. They were too busy and severely over priced. Food was horrid after a ridiculous amount of wait time.8

Ever since the China Jos in Indio closed down, this is the closet I am gonna get when it comes to the nostalgic taste of my childhood. The people are super friendly and they give you a lot for a great price! Love coming here read more

Everything was perfect. Exactly what you want from a Chinese restaurant, like the old days. Lol This is gonna be our spot for Chinese food from now on. Great flavor, perfect portions. read more

Terrible, terrible customer service. Lorena was rude and hung up the phone on me. I don't eat meat and they sent me chicken. She refused to let me talk with the manager, who according to her speaks no English. This is the 3rd time my order doesn't come right. I will never order from them again. They don't deserve the one star I had to select to leave this review. read more

I had been looking for great Chinese food in the greater Coachella valley for 5 to 10 years... And had moved to the Palm desert Bermuda dunes area.... and thank G-d I accidentally found this jewel. I do not leave many reviews on Yelp but.. I had to give props to this place. I was sick of panda inn every week. Surely there must be another choice? The only reason I did not rank it higher is because although the inside is very clean... It is definitely a hole in the wall type of restaurant... With utilitarian, unflattering images of food on the wall. That really do not do their food justice. But I guess that is being "authentic." Because they do not have a P.F. Chang looking place in China... Not even a Panda Inn, with pristin e, marble counters and glass panels to view the orange chicken from.... This would be a good representation of 1987 Beijing. There is always take out.. even when Covid-19 fears reside. Do not judge this place by its atmosphere. But.... this small, family run restaurant is always superb.... At least for Mongolian Beef and egg rolls... Which is my yardstick. And I had been on the hunt for the best, reasonably priced Mongolian beef & chinese food..... way far.... far... away from El Paseo. I tried most of the restaurants in the top 10... And I was not impressed. Nor was my family. Several of them served food so bad that, we could not even eat it... and thus will never go back. Maybe I got the wrong dishes, I usually can swallow tolerable Chinese food.... but they were pretty awful. This place is not fancy... Quite the hole in the wall. But... I tried it one night and I've been going at least once a week for their Mongolian beef with friends. It's fairly spicy so we usually order it with low spice... The beef is lean and I have yet to have any bites of anything but excellent. One unknown piece of bone or fatty meat and I run... Never to return. This is consistently fantastic. read more

I'm very picky about Chinese take out but I decided to give it a try. It was very quick and DELICIOUS! I got their house special that came with Shrimp and broccoli with fried rice and Lo Mein. I also got an order of egg rolls that are filled with veggies. The servings were perfect! They take phone orders and you can dine in as well. I just went there and ordered and my meal was ready in about 5 minutes. read more

China Jo's - Shrimp and broccoli with fried rice and Lo Mein - Chinese Near Me - LA Quinta, California

Ordered egg foo yung vegetarian. Very well made , the gravy was just right not too salty. Orange chicken was well served , good portions and good taste . The chicken fried rice was also well served , enough to feed a family of 4 and fresh tasting . I recommend thos takeout restaurant especially during these trying times. read more

This downscale Chinese eatery is pretty good if you are not too picky. Good prices...especially for daily specials that come with a drink. Food arrives hot, tasty and is more than enough for one person. Service is fast with friendly order-taker. Plates, plasticware and napkins are cheap and flimsy. I recommend chopsticks. Ambiance is not great. Two tables outdoors. Reusable or higher-quality plates and flatware plus better napkins would be a huge plus and worth more $$. read more

We love this place! The food is always excellent. Definitely try something new, we do every time we order. Super fast too.

The food here is phenomenal! It's not real pricey for Chinese food and they have a great variety of items to choose from. I've been coming here at least once a week for the past 15-20 years. If it's your first time here and you're not exactly sure what to order then I recommend you stop inside and take a look at the photo menu items they have on display near the counter. There's roughly about 40 items to choose from and they include a brief description of the items. I wouldn't recommend ordering take out over the phone unless you've been here on multiple occasions and KNOW exactly what you're ordering to avoid any confusion. On most visits, I generally order the #2 which is the Sesame Chicken meal w/Rice & Noodles, the #13 which is the Beef & Broccoli meal w/Rice & Noodles, or the Combination Lo Mein which comes with Pork, Chicken, and Shrimp mixed with Lo Mein. read more

Consistently good fresh food. Haven't got a bad meal here yet. Good portion sizes at a better price and quality than Panda Express. Can be a bit cramped and hot when eating in. Suggest the take out! read more

Chicken was undercooked I got food poisoning and was sick for 2 weeks and the owner was very rude and so was her husband, it was completely unprofessional and I will not ever be going back there again. read more

Food is good for the value but quality can be very low. I someone did not get food poisoning but my friend did and we got the same order.

Ordered take out. The spare ribs were dry and nothing but fat. The pad Thai was tasty and a good spice but noodles over cooked. I would stick with soul of China. read more

This place is a little gem. They have some of the best won ton soups ever. It's a little hole in the wall that is more than just another joint. They are friendly and provide good service. Try the soup or some veggies with rice and an eggroll. read more
