Convenient, since it's close. Friendly service but after all these years there's still no distinct flavor. Almost $50 for 3 entrees. Wasn't worth it... read more

Small Chinese restaurant that also has a lounge. Walked in, was greeted & seated right away. The Waitress was friendly & we were checked on frequently! Food came out about 5 minutes within ordering. I ordered Szechuan Chicken with added Broccoli (See Picture) Portion size was 10/10, I give the flavor & beef quality 7/10. The beef was very low quality(chewy) which was the only reason for 3 stars along with the uncomfortable worn out booth seats. read more

We've been searching for a good Chinese takeout restaurant for a while now and we all agreed after trying Jumbo, that we found our new go-to. The flavors were spot on and everything tasted fresh and not overly greasy. The menu has a lot of great options you don't always see elsewhere. We would have given 5 stars however the service upon arrival wasn't amazing. But to be fair it kind of added to the experience so for us it didn't deter us from wanting to come back read more

"Average" is a fair way to characterize Jumbo's offerings. Came in last night, party of four. Seated immediately, tea, water, menus, and flatware was also quick. We ordered four ala cartes and two appetizers. Potstickers could have been frozen so meh. One order should have been pork but we received chicken instead. Standout dish was salt and pepper chicken. $85-ish including two bottles of beer. There's plenty of Americanized-Chinese places like Jumbo around so no rush to get back here. read more

Best BBQ Pork around! Always Tender and fresh! A huge menu to choose from. I love the Chicken Lomein. Good drinks in the bar, friendly clientele, the bar staff however is nothing to write home about. read more

Earlier when I got my order, I didn't see all that it contained and I wrote a review complaining about the sweet-and-sour sauces. About 10 minutes later I saw that you had sent extra sauce and did what I asked and I feel so badly about leaving that horrible review, I'll try and go back and fix it. I really will. I'm so sorry. read more

Good food with large portions. I find their food very tasty. I wish they offered vegetarian options.

Still our favorite local old school American-Chinese diner: tonight just got the House special lo mein and the sweet n sour pork ( side of fried rice) - hit the spot, as always , ample serving sizes/ reasonably priced ... Fast service- and big comfy booths... read more

Jumbo Restaurant & Lounge - Hot & Sour Soup, Sweet and Sour Pork, side of fried rice, House Special Lo Mein - Chinese Near Me - Portland, Oregon

Very standard American Chinese food, served in a clean but rather worn environment. Huge quantities of relatively mediocre food - but, if this is what you think of when you think Chinese, you're likely to be satisfied. The prices are certainly fair: lunch for two, with soup and fried rice, came to about $25 before tip and the waitperson was friendly and pleasant. One thing, though: fix the noisy fan in the ladies room! read more

Don't know if it was how they packed our order or during the delivery, but all the sauces ended up at the bottom of the bag. Huge mess. Anything that was fried was soggy. Normally the food from Jumbo is good. This time I am really disappointed. read more

I had the chicken with vegetables and asked them to make it medium spicy. It was excellent.

Id rather have a smaller portion of good quality chicken than a big portion of FATTY chicken. Half of my General Tsao chicken was inedible. I'd put a piece in my mouth, chew the meat and have to spit out more fat and burnt chicken than there was decent meat. Great flavor but terrible quality chicken. Sad. read more

I've driven by Jumbo multiple times and was always curious. After looking it up here on Yelp and seeing the pictures, I KNEW I had to try it! I decided to order delivery on a Friday night. I was a little nervous about it given the distance I live, but food got to me quickly and was still PIPING HOT! Everything was so good and I already can't wait to go back! This time to eat there, for sure. Definitely try the Mongolian Chicken if you decide to give it a shot. I can't stop thinking about it! read more

I've been eating a lot of Chinese food lately and this place did not disappoint. I got a couple items here. I got their #7 which is a combo which had General Tso's Chicken, Fried Shrimp, and Pork Friend Rice and it was all delicious! I appreciated that their General Tso's chicken actually had some decent heat. I also got their combination lo mein which was also very good! I would definitely recommend this place if you haven't tried it before. read more

The best Chinese in Portland! If you like traditional, tasty, crunchy not soggy Chinese in a traditional (read: old school) dining room, this is your spot. Service is quick and the owners are there helping out and are very friendly. Highly recommend the Mongolian Chicken, perfect amount of spice! read more

Yes Chinatown Portland has moved to SE 82nd but just a couple miles down the road off of Johnson Creek, the Jumbo is serving inner SE and the hungry next door at W-Buffett's Precision Castparts. And every once in a while you crave an Americanized Chinese menu, the kind offering egg foo young in a combo with the chow mein or rice,and get it all done in One (plate) third portion of the plate, main entree selection. And then, Jumbo surprises with some authentic dishes not usually seen in the off-Chinatown scene: Peking Duck, sizzling oysters and scallops, salt and pepper squid, and our family fave, beef chow fun. Owner is friendly and gracious and after chatting for a while also pointed out the more authentic menu items, her favorite, the Mandarin Delight. This is one of those days, the hubby insisted on a chop suey house for Kung Pao and that's when my eyes roll...lovingly haha, and I embrace my combo plate options choosing gravy topped eggy veg foo young patty and indulge in pork (cha sui) fried rice as it's the only time I ever order it, always out of pocket book reach, way overpriced as a single entree... a matter of principle ;) It's a killer deal with Kung Pao as the last part of the combo and enough for 2 meals at $9.50! Decor is a typical old school Chinese diner with TV on in the main room booths just like stepping into grandma's living room where pink and green abounds and windows dressed with low hanging half window drapes, but bonus because she keeps her liquor cabinet full next door in the video poker room. Spread out in the darker adjoining wood paneled drawing room to host larger parties on the round tables and overflow. Not the iconic Jumbo floating restaurant of Hong Kong, but at the mouth of the sea of suburban strip malls and chain restaurants, it's worthwhile fishing this Jumbo out. read more

Omg this place is amazing. The food is effin good. I had ordered from here 3 times. We finally went in with my family last night. The portions are massive. Staff was very nice. It was very clean and welcoming. The food is seasoned to perfection. read more

After arriving from my flight at 9:30 pm, the only restaurant open in the area was jumbo restaurant and I was pleasantly surprised by the fast Chinese food! Pros: - plenty of seating available inside at the bar and the tables - very fast service and the waitress at the counter was very friendly - the portions were very large and so cheap! Everything was less than 10$ - the egg rolls were only 1.50$ - we ordered the Thai style chow fun and it was surprisingly spicy but very flavorful! It's a popular dish here and the portion is huge! - they give plenty of meat and shrimp in their dishes! They don't skimp out! Cons: - it's a typical fast casual Chinese place, so go in with those expectations ie. Not the cleanest, dingy decor, oily and fried foods Overall if I'm back in Portland and need some late night food that's fast and cheap, I'm coming here! read more

There's a time for authentic soup dumplings and hand pulled noodles, and there's a time for combo #7. Recently my favorite general tso is in Salem. That's hardly sustainable. Time to find a new favorite. So I got the combo #7. It was one of the neatest arranged combos I've ever had. Sadly in the world of American Chinese, presentation scores minimal points. The portions are right in between "oh those leftovers will fit with plenty of room in your purse" and "finishing the whole thing would be unwise". I was most impressed with the general Tso. Batter crispy enough to give texture and hold sauce but then get out of the way. Not too acidic either. Perfect by my accounts. Nice big chunks of chicken too. My only wish was for a little more rice but overall solid combo. My friend got the family style bean curd. Lots of veggies of all sorts. Not just cabbage and celery. I'd bring the wife here for it. The place is not really much to look at but they score where it counts. I'll be back. read more

Between the service and food this place is amazing! Came in to place a to go order and have some people that are picky eaters and they had no problems making sure to take care of us and cook it perfect!!! We expected one issue because of how big the order was but they nailed it the food is delicious we ordered many different types and they were all delicious!!!! read more

Very happy with the food I tried recently through Uber eats. I chose this option because they had a great amount of vegetarian options. The crab puffs were perfect, the crispy sesame tofu was delicious (& I loveeeee that they already separate the sauce so you don't have to ask or worry about it getting soggy) and the plain noodles were delicious as well. Large portions, and I have no complaints. Will definitely be back! read more

I love Jumbos. My family has been going here for years...service is always kind and friendly, they accommodate dishes to be vegan, portions are generous, and the actual location is interesting and unique, like a movie set, an old diner with pink and green seats. If you go in person they serve hot tea! A lovely touch I think :) Our favorites are the cashew tofu, the Singapore noodles with tofu, the sesame tofu, and the eggplant. Thank you, Jumbos, for being our affordable and delicious neighborhood and family spot! read more

Under combination dinners we ordered #6 & #7. That way we had a variety of food to sample since this is our 1st time eating here. All food items were very good. We found a new Chinese restaurant to eat at. Give them a try. read more

Now this is Chinese food! I wish I saw the lunch specials before ordering as I didn't see it posted but I have attached the image of the full menu here. I ordered the number 5 combo and it was worth every penny. Large portion sizes and was very flavorful. I only ate a little more than half and saved the rest for dinner. I wish they gave more rice because of the amount of meat I was able to finish my rice quickly. I would come back! read more

Fast, friendly service. Pro tip, don't order online. Place your order over the phone and it will be significantly cheaper. Food is mostly amazing! Salt and pepper tofu. General Tso's. Mushu pork. read more

I chose this restaurant because of decent reviews here in Yelp. Big mistake. You can skip this long review and skip the restaurant. Most of my reviews are positive, here is one that is not: The food was simply horrible. We ordered two entrees (pictured) and pot stickers. One entree was family style, it came with an appetizer sampler and hot and sour soup. I thought the soup was bland, my partner thought it tasted awful. The pot stickers were undercooked, doughy, and sticky. The appetizer sampler included a little bbq pork, a couple won tons, and an egg roll. These were average, but easily the best food of the meal. The entrees were where things got seriously awful. The Cashew Chicken had soft, tasteless cashews and rubbery chicken that was unrecognizable. The parts of the chicken left over that no one wants. The sauce was tasteless. The "Shrimp in Lobster Sauce" was just gross. Bland shrimp swimming in. Something. Really. Bad. I question the presence of lobster anywhere in the same zip code as this goo. We are packing up the leftovers (70% of the food) and we will try to give it to someone on the streets tomorrow. Finally, the packaging. There's was a ton of it and it was all the bad stuff. Polystyrene, hard plastic, plastic bags. You can't even pay Ridwell to take most of this stuff. read more

Jumbo Restaurant and Lounge had good food and service. We placed a take out order and enjoyed the Szechuan beef and the sweet and sour chicken along with barbecued pork fried rice. The beef dish was pleasantly spicy and very tasty. The sweet and sour was good but a bit greasy. The rice was packed with pork, vegetables, and was tasty. Portions were huge. We ordered take out. The location is a bit run down and parking was tight but still it's a good thing place to try for Chinese. read more

Don't sleep on the place. It may look like a hole in the wall but this place is delicious take out.

Some of the best Gen Tsao chicken I've had, had lots of actual chicken in it, not just breading like many places. Also, pre-covid we didn't tip for pickup, so I don't usually tip for pickup now. But the woman at the register was just so sincerely pleasant that I had to. Got my new favorite Chinese restaurant! read more

Classic Chinese Lounge. Great service and drinks. Locals are friendly and the food is good. You can order off the menu and they know what you're talking about when explaining how you would like the dish. I recommend the House Chow Mein Hong Kong style and the Mandarin Chicken unbreaded. They will even make General Tso Chicken without the heavy breading. read more

I always passed by it and it seemed interesting. The food was bland. Didn't have much flavor to them unfortunately

As with all new Chinese restaurants, gotta order the basics and see how they did. Pot stickers ok, bbq pork is good, don't bother with the spring rolls or crab Rangoon. The green beans we got with garlic and spicy - these were decent. As was the general tsos. But the lo mein was GREASY (as in too greasy to eat out of the fridge the next day), and the chicken with vegetables was super bland - more oil than any discernible flavorful sauce. And the egg flower soup - solid pass. Who puts tomatoes in that?? As for Covid, they did distance and pickup outside. Homemade (or store ought and divvied up) sauces - would have been better in packets perhaps. read more

First off, really liked their precautions for Covid. I've been calling ahead and ordering over the phone. If you were already going to pickup takeout, do this over app ordering. It's cheaper that way! It can be daunting, but just read your list off and give your name. You pay at the door. Family favorites are mandarin chicken, ginger chicken, chicken fried rice, and potstickers. Specify chicken or other meat fried rice! Ordering just "fried rice" will include multiple meats. Nice big portions when ordering al la cart entrees and sides. If you want some nice, consistent, and plentiful Chinese food, this is the place to go! read more

Ordered for delivery, they forgot half my order! Wtf!!!! The delivery driver left the 1/2 order outside our door and didn't even knock. And quite frankly I can't even be sure that the one dish we did receive was actually the right dish because for 5 spice chicken there was no 5 spice. It was like a conglomeration of sweet and sour and general tsou and honey chicken or who knows what? Completely unauthentic Chinese! read more

Wonderful food, friendly staff, quick service. I have come here for takeout so many times I cannot count. Thanks for all the wonderful food memories you give me, shrimp and beef dishes make me happy to think about no matter what the weather is outside or in my soul. read more

Just paid $50 for some gross generals chicken ( just tastes like ginger doused chicken) fried shrimp (it's burnt) asked for red sauce, didn't get any! Don't eat here if you want Chinese food! Terrible and so mad I paid $50 for this gross ass shot! read more

*** Restaurant Currently Closed due to Pandemic*** For some reason their Yelp page hasn't been updated, but they're not open as of 4-11-20. When I called, I was told they might reopen in a few weeks, and I can only hope they do! At least for take-out. Please open for take-out! I love this place. I've been coming here for 10 years. I rarely eat in the restaurant and usually get my food to-go. I know the place looks run-down and shady, but inside is nicer, and the food is classic American-style Chinese. Just like the food I ate as a kid. They use FRESH veggies and not the frozen or pre-cut stuff, and decent meat as well. Portions are huge, which makes this a great options if you want several days worth of leftovers. I adore their hot and sour soup, but be aware that the large is really BIG! They are one of only TWO places I've ever found that makes Mandarin "hot" beef, though their version has a touch more ginger than I prefer. But it's still a big family favorite. I also really like their Kung-pao chicken, chicken with black-bean sauce (it's on the menu as pork, but they will sub chicken at your request) and mushroom chicken. Really, give this place a try. It's tasty and not overly expensive. If I have one quibble, it's that their to-go packaging leaves a lot to be desired. The cheap plastic clamshells have a tendency to break and leak, so don't try to refrigerate your leftovers in them unless you put a plate under the clamshell. I've learned this less the hard way, a few times. But I still love this place, and look forward to future take-out! read more
