    a plate of rice and vegetables
    Ron W.

    I recently moved into a new home at Renaissance Park and as you can guess when you're moving, cooking doesn't make a lot of sense given how busy you are. You rely on a lot of fast food and take-out to minimize fuss and muss so I've started exploring the neighborhood. In the mood for some Chinese-American eats to supplement Taco Bell and Cook-Out, I spy Jin Jin China right around the corner from me. I head on over to a slightly run-down plaza and inside it's super basic. I mean, beyond basic with all seating cordoned off and some extra plastic shields for COVID-protection. I put in my order for a couple of dinners (beef-broccoli and garlic-chicken) along with some wonton soup. I wait outside, per the directions and head back in after 15 minutes. They hand me over a nicely packed bag of Chinese-American eats and I head home. At home, I dig through the nicely packed eats, I've got some fried wonton noodles for the soup, a large quart container of wonton soup along with two white containers for each meal. Now given how basic this place is, how can I give it 4 stars?!? Good question but I basically ate the food over four meals so for value, Jin Jin is delivering it. For Chinese-American eats, I look for the little hints of going above and beyond. The soup wontons were huge and well-stuffed with meat. For the meals, the veggies included: green pepper, zucchini, mushroom, baby corn, snow peas and more. Onions, carrots and broccoli are pretty basic but Jin Jin adds some better veggies. As a Chinese-American guy who has had a couple of restaurants in his family line, I can say that Jin Jin does it right. They've got a chef in back with a huge black wok over a roaring fire making your eats to order. They don't skimp on the little basics around veggies and higher quality ingredients. They do it all for a really good price and do it lickety-split. And I have to think that they will be my go-to spot for Chinese American eats moving forward. While the decor may be below-average, what they're cooking up is excellent. And while it sounds basic, I NEVER found the same type of eats living in downtown Raleigh for TWELVE plus years. So appreciate Jin Jin China for it's awesome Chinese-American eats, you're not going to find it just anywhere....

All their food felt more authentic and homestyle than your typical run of the mill Chinese place. The food had flavor, and it wasn't overly greasy either!

I ordered the lo mein, bamboo flounder fish, and a side of fried rice. Unfortunately, the lo mein was extremely greasy, the fried rice was overly salty, and the shrimp was hard, overcooked and not fresh. When I informed the waiter that I would not be eating the lo mein due to its condition, I was told that I would still have to pay for it and that it did not matter whether I liked it or not. He initially refused to remove the dish from my bill. After eventually taking it off, he told me that he never wanted to see my face again as I was leaving. What disappoints me most is that I genuinely enjoyed this restaurant and had been a repeat customer. The decline in food quality combined with the way my concerns were handled has left a very negative impression. Unfortunately, I will be taking my business elsewhere.

I was actually a little nervous going in because certain Chinese dishes tend to upset my stomach, so I tried to avoid some of the heavier noodle and chicken dishes that normally do that to me. Honestly, I think that was the best decision because I thoroughly enjoyed my meal and felt completely fine afterwards. I started with the crab rangoons, which were perfectly creamy on the inside and crispy on the outside -- absolutely delicious. Then I tried the pork-filled bao buns, which was my first time ever having them, and I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed them too. Everyone else at our table seemed to really enjoy their food as well. I genuinely didn't hear a single complaint. We also ordered some drinks that were delicious, and both our server and the rest of the staff were absolutely fantastic and very welcoming throughout the night. The atmosphere and vibes inside are honestly one of the coolest parts of the experience. It somehow feels like a mix between a brewery, a florist, a bookstore, and a Chinese restaurant all at once. It's such an interesting and unique space that doesn't really feel like anywhere else. Overall, this was a great experience, and I would absolutely come back to try more items on the menu.

We were ravenous, but had an intense Chinese food craving, so we ordered Chengdu 7 food from Uber Eats. Food did not disappoint! We ordered sesame chicken, chef special fried rice, chicken fried rice, Mongolian beef*, shrimp fried rice, and everything was delicious! Fan favorites were the Mongolian beef and chicken fried rice, but honestly EVERYTHING was good.

All in all, Chengdu 7 you truly made me a fan of you. I will most certainly be returning for more!

Every dish was wonderful. And for anyone who has not tried the hand pulled noodles here you really must try them - they are a highlight of a meal - incredibly delicious with a wonderful texture. The flow of food to our table was great, not too fast or rushed and not too slow. Our waitress was wonderful and ensured that our group had everything that we needed to enjoy our meal. Will I be back again - Absolutely!! Everyone in our group agrees that this is the best Chinese food anywhere! I will caution some seeing this review that unlike many other Asian restaurants, if you order a Hot and spicy dish here it will indeed be very hot. I consider that to be good because I enjoy hot spicy food, but for those who cannot handle hot food stick with the milder dishes.

Room for probably 3 diff groups of people to eat. There were tables to seat 4, two tall stool seats by the window facing the parking lot, and a tucked away spot with a folding chair beside it and had cups of utensils on it. I ordered the cold flour noodle with sesame sauce and the shaanxi mutton soak buns. Both were tasty and the cold noodles were refreshing. The employee described the mutton soak buns dish as a soup soaked pancake which is pretty accurate. It reminds me of a rice porridge but with chopped dough instead of rice. The restroom is in the back through the kitchen which is kinda cool because you can see them rolling out all the round flat bread that they use for the dishes. I'm guessing it's what they use for the rougamo (I've seen it at other Chinese restaurants described as a Chinese hamburger) and the shaanxi soak buns. It almost has a gnocchi type of consistency. It isn't your average fried rice and stir fry type of Chinese restaurant so if you're looking for something like that it might not meet your expectations. I would definitely come back to try other menu items. Also, get the plum juice. It's delicious!
