    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....

I came right before a show at the Alamo Drafthouse around the corner, which makes it the perfect night out for dinner and show. It looks like a lot of people order takeout here, but they have ample tables and do offer an excellent dine in service. I loved their green beans and eggplant. 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'll definitely come back next time in near north Raleigh.

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 have to say about this little gem, I've been cheating myself…read more Why is it that I moved to my current location in 2021, and never think to look at places on Six Forks Road? Maybe it's because I lived in Wake Forest, maybe it's because I work there still, IDK, but I've glad I can make up for lost time now. A friend wanted to meet for lunch and suggested this place. Funny thing, he got the orange chicken and didn't really like it. It is VERY orangey. I got one of the other lunch specials, I think maybe the beef basil one. Mine was good, so good in fact that a few weeks later when my family was needing an Asian fix, I sent them to Ni Asian. They were pleased, but got Chinese food. Last week, my daughter and I went, and wow, yes, WOW............I got the noodle dish listed first on menu (not a lunch special), ad it was good, but my daughter got the Pad See Ew, something I have never ordered, being a Drunken Noodle fan myself..........but I tasted hers, and it was so good, I was jealous. So, yeah, we went AGAIN yesterday, she got the Pad See Ew again, and I tried the Drunken Noodles, which were amazing..........not spicy like I'm used to getting, but so flavorful. What will I try next?

Then the business had to change with the shutdowns but I'm so glad this small business survived and adapted. So, here we are,mid 2026 and while they have adapted to take out only after 3PM all I got to say - they still don't disappoint. Food not greasy, fresh ingredients, great service and aim to please the customer. Same family but the boys got a lot bigger Friday nights order was for the Pork Egg Rolls - Fantastic!!! Reminds me of the egg rolls I grew up in Chicago from the infamous China Chef but a little smaller. They are the best egg rolls in Raleigh and best I've had in 50 years!!! Wife loves the Tom Kha soup w Chicken. Not oily. Flavorful. The House Fried Rice is the best I've had in 30 years in Raleigh. The Spicy Korean Combo over Fried Rice is my personal new favorite. If ya want good, consistent and flavorful Asian (Korean, Thai, Chinese etc.) my vote and recommendation is for Ni's. Again after 3PM take out only but totally worth it in value, portion sizes and quality bar none.

    Food was impeccable. I'll be back!…read more On a Saturday night around 8pm, I ordered a bunch of food for about 20 people as an impromptu post graduation dinner at my house. 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. And you can tell a lot from a place by how they package your food: food was delivered in tightly seeled packs and labeled! It sounds minor, but is so helpful when you're feed 2 dozen hungry people. All in all, Chengdu 7 you truly made me a fan of you. I will most certainly be returning for more!

    Another great meal at Chengdu 7 with family and friends! This place really delivers quality food…read moreand great service! We enjoyed so many different dishes - hot and sour soup, scallion pancakes, egg rolls, hand pulled noodles with beef, kung Pao chicken, cumin beef, beef with vegetables, crag rangoon, and pork dumplings. 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!
