Pretty fast service and dishes came out hot and tasty. This is a bait and bustling place so if you want a quieter dining experience, skip this place. I noticed they also have take out and there was lots of orders being made/picked up. Considering this is a casino, the prices were very reasonable and the portions large. The soup bowl was huge and there was more than enough for 3+ people. Although we come to this casino often, this was our first time at this restaurant. We will be back again as the food was tasty but we will order less! Our group of three ordered one noodle bowl, fried rice and two chicken dishes - kung pao and orange. So much food. They also started with waters and have fountain Pepsi products. read more

Guests at Harrah's Hotel enjoyed a delightful dinner experience. We were warmly welcomed and seated promptly. Our order arrived quickly, and everything was delicious. We chose orange chicken, kung pao chicken, lo mein, and pad thai noodles and more, plates are $25-$30 per plate Arrived at 5:15PM, we were served by 5:35pm and left around 6:00pm excellent service--thank you! read more

KJ's food is so delicious and really satisfying. The food is always served hot and fresh. I like the Asian persuasion decor of the restaurant and it adds to our actual enjoyable Chinese lunch or dinner experience. The servers aren't one for a bunch of conversation but once you order, food comes out fast and as soon as it's ready. You must try the Shrimp fried rice, sweet and sour pork and beef and broccoli. This is our go to meal and the portions are enough shade and we usually have food to take home as well. My mom always makes her preference known that she wants to go there whenever we go to Harrah's Casino. The food has never disappointed and is very consistent. We get the same delicious, hot, fresh food fast every time and as a Gambler, ready to play, it's exactly what we want...lol read more

Currently the options at Harrah's are limited unless you want to spend an arm and a leg or get fast food. Been curious about KJ as it's always been busy the times we've passed by. Just so happened that there was no visible line and we had some time to spare. So, thought we'd give it a try. We were seated right away in the inside dining area. Took a while for our order to be taken. All the while we noticed servers rushing in and out of the kitchen area, dirty dishes dropped noisily into bus bins and staff literally shouting back and forth to and from the kitchen. This was all within 5 minutes of sitting down prior to our order being taken.... Had to flag someone down to take our order as we were in a bit of a rush trying to grab a quick bite prior to catching a show. We ordered the Seafood Tofu Clay Pot and a side of greens. Both to share. After ordering the noise and yelling continued. When the food came out we weren't overly impressed. The greens were good and crisp. Not over cooked. The clay pot needed more flavor. Was quite bland. They also charge for steamed rice. Most other Asian restaurants would offer the rice with a main dish being ordered. Not so here. Not quite sure what all the hype is about. Food is less than mediocre while there always seems to be a wait for dining in or take out. Keep on Yelp'n! read more

Food is authentic Cantonese cuisine. First time visiting this location. Been to their Vegas locations many times. Expect to pay a lot more (they do accept Caesar reward points) since it is located in a casino in a very secluded location. Still my go-to place for dinner on back to back days. Service was good and staff attentive. read more

I visited KJ Chinese restaurant with my daughter on Monday and the food was really good. We really enjoyed our dinner, but I will say the service was not too great. Don't get me wrong. We got seated fairly quickly and they brought us water but after that we waited about 10 minutes for anyone to take our drink or food order. We were just sitting there waiting for us to get some attention. The restaurant was clean and once we finally ordered our meal came out rather quickly. I would say the prices are a little high, but that's only because it's in the casino, but it was definitely a good spot for dinner. I'd go back! read more

The expensive thing is of course a hotel casino, so I understand. There are so many servers, but I don't place an order. Not only us, but everyone who comes to order doesn't answer the order and doesn't come even if they shout and call. And it's the first time I've seen a server fighting with customers. Apart from the taste and price, the people who work here don't want to work. read more

Anytime I dine in KJ Chinese restaurant, Id always order the deep fried flounder. Its one of the best thing they served. The fried chicken is little on the plain side but it had a nice crunch. The white rice is little on the hard side. I feel like its not cooked all the way or it needs more water in it during the cooking process. I feel like I would have to bring my own white rice to enjoy it with my fried flounder. I would enjoy it more if the rice was cooked right. I can't complain much since the food is always free for me because I get to use my rewards credit I've been earning from Caesars. read more

We were surprised with the overall weak Yelp ratings here, as the food was delectable and the service was top-notch. 12/01/2024. Potstickers ($10.95): extra crispy with a burst of savory and herb flabors, 4/5 stars. Wor wonton soup ($25.95): this was the only letdown, as it tasted like top ramen but had tons of filling, 3/5 stars. Pork siu mei ($10.95): tender and juicy, 4/5 stars. Steamed bbq pork bun ($8.95): soft dough and tons of savory bbq pork, 4/5 stars. Pork chops with spicy salt ($23.95): not spicy, but tender pork with a slightly crispy batter, 4/5 stars. Bbq pork fried rice ($24.95): well-seasoned rice and we almost finished this dish despite the mountain of rice they served, 4.5/5 stars. Chicken in orange peel sauce ($23.95): slightly tangy and sweet that went well with the crispy batter, 4/5 stars. Our server seated us immediately upon arriving, took our order shortly after, and the food came out quickly. Our server inadvertently dropped one small piece of the pork chop; therefore, she apologized and stated that she will have it replaced, despite that we said there was no need to. She had returned with four pieces so I couldn't help but think that if she dropped the entire plate earlier, then she'd maybe replace it with a party tray =) read more

I've been there twice over the past one year customer service is absolutely horrible. For example, there is nobody in the restaurant. Every single table is empty. Only One person is cleaning a table off. One other person is working on organizing to go orders and the cooks are back there cooking. Meanwhile there is a line of six people waiting to get a seat and standing there for more than five minutes. And must continue waiting while the first person orders a to go order The rest of the customers must continue to wait because no one else in the empty restaurant is willing to come up and seat people as easily as it sounds. The food is good, it has a good location with a great atmosphere, but for me, it's not worth the hassle of being stuck there waiting a half hour for your bill after your done. As what happened last time I was there And I was not alone. I was watching someone else trying to wave the one single waitress down in an extremely small restaurant to get a bill. They just continuously walk by. Because they had a line of people waiting to be seated, but they weren't interested in giving the bills out to clear the tables. I wish funner California would replace these workers or change the restaurant with another Asian restaurant with better customer service. read more

Came here to try out their pho after a very alcohol filled weekend. Lol. I was a bit skeptical about pho being offered at a Chinese restaurant so I actually wasn't in high hopes. I was sure proved wrong though! The pho was actually good, it had a hint of Chinese flare to it though. The 5spices really was prominent in the broth and they're not stingey with the meats. The special had everything per usual. Beef, tripe, tendons& a little bonus of meatballs. The meat was a little different though. More of the stir-fry type of meat, but still good. Because it's there, I'd go again to try actual Chinese food though. Not all restaurants can pull off fusion cuisine& especially to the spoiled tastbuds. The service was a bit off due to language barriers.. all in all, we figured out everything in the end. Kinda. Not really. Lol. read more

Mediocre at best. Long lines, ordered for take out took an hour. Each item around $25. Just not good enough for the money or wait.

There togo process sucks. You order off the side and they tell you to it will be ready in a certain amount of time. Both times i had ordered expecting them to bring the food up to me as im waiting at a machine or even at the least back to the counter where i ordered but no, they complete the order in back and it sits there until you come up and check to see if you order is ready. So you don't really know how long your food has been sitting. The last time i placed an order they told me to come back in an hour (it was a Saturday night), I came back 45 minutes later and my food was ready! How long was it sitting there for? They need to add a beeper system or texting to let you know when your food is ready, or just get rid of that place entirely and put something else there. read more

We are at the restaurant and ordered food to-go. Staff was friendly and helped get our orders made to our requested changes. Unfortunately the Pho broth was okay and needed to be hotter. We went in early and had been seated right away. We enjoyed our meal and the extra food we took home. Everything was good. However I wish they take over the old Fiore/Salt & Fon restaurant space. read more

I've been wanting to try this place because my cousin raved about the honey walnut creamy shrimp. One night I decided to dine here while staying at Harrahs. I ordered the egg rolls, fried dumplings and honey walnut creamy shrimp. The entree comes with rice. The food was just okay, nothing to rave about. I would give the honey walnut shrimp a 5 out of 10; decent portion. The flavor was not there. Customer service was just okay as well. It was not busy the night I went. Everything is just okay overall. read more

The food tastes delicious and pretty fresh I definitely recommend the steamed fish and the Pho has also a pretty good flavor They have both in restaurant seating booths and out more towards the casino area It was pretty clean and service was efficient Also had a Thai tea which tasted great too read more

The restaurant is located inside Harrah's Hotel and Casino, offering both indoor seating and outdoor tables where you can enjoy views of the gaming action. We ordered the Kung Pao Chicken and the Crispy Sweet and Sour dish--both were flavorful, but the portion sizes felt small for the price. Our total for two dinners, with no drinks, including tax and gratuity, came to about $70. The Kung Pao Chicken had an overwhelming amount of onions compared to the chicken itself, which was a bit disappointing. Overall, I'd rate the restaurant 3.5 stars. read more

I love the authenticity of this place! And food is actually spicy! I love spicy. Got the chefs special Szechuan tingling beef. And my hubby got the chefs special spicy chicken. Both were really good and really spicy! I love the tingling numbness you get from Szechuan peppercorns. My only critique is that I wish the beef was thicker slices, like they do in other Asian beef dishes. But was still very good. read more

On August 30, 2025 my family and I had dinner at this establishment at Harrahs casino SAN DIEGO. We were a table of 10 between the hours of 9-10pm. We paid for our meal at 10:15pm with the cashier lady with the name of "PING". We were sitting outside by the metal gate on the right. Our dinner choices were ok nothing really to brag about. They were really SLOW with our orders that we said the 2 items will be "TO GO"since we were already halfway done with what we had. More attitude came after that. Service from the employees were very unprofessional. From the minute they seated us they were rude, rushed us for our orders, and when my brother tried asking for more soup bowls the lady just walked away . If your looking for a place to eat at HARRAHS CASINO VALLEY CENTER SAN DIEGO I would not RECOMMEND eating at this establishment. I would rather eat dinner at PANDA EXPRESS. We will never eat here AGAIN!! Harrahs Casino should close this place DOWN!! WARNING: KEEP YOUR CELL PHONES VERY CLOSE TO YOU. THE SERVERS WILL STEAL IT!! read more

Food was excellent. I had honey walnut shrimp and it was spectacular. Not many tables, but service is good. Not warm and fuzzy, but efficient. We will definitely eat here again. Try the potstickers! YUM read more

I hate to write a review like this but it needs to be done. The food was not good. We ordered Orange Peel Chicken it was gross. It had a funky smell and taste. My wife wanted me to smell the chicken and it seemed it was cooked in rancid oil. We also ordered beef chow main and it was ok, but a bit greasy. The egg rolls were not all that either. The rice was the only decent thing. The meal came to 64 bucks and I gave a tip. After the meal, my daughter got a really bad stomach ache. The service was actually good, and we were in and out fairly quickly. We will never go back. read more

There is plenty of choices.. I would not recommend this place to a family of 6 We got served each plate 10 min after each other.. it was like we ate rice on its own Minutes later the chicken. And so on.... read more

food was great and service was good too. we had sizzling black pepper beef, and pork fried rice.

This was the second restaurant I ate at during my stay at Harrahs and it was actually for my birthday dinner. I'll admit it wasn't my first choice but since other restaurants were closed on Tuesdays, I selected KJ. It did end up being a good choice since Chinese food is a comfort food in my book and they have a very wide selection of items. In line with many other Chinese restaurants the service is efficient but don't expect extravagant pleasantries. For food, we ordered the following: - Congee (plain): it didn't give much description but I assumed it would come with some stuff like green onions, but I was wrong. It's literally just plain. It still tastes good but wish there were some other ingredients included. - Stir fried clams w/basil: I was craving clams and this one hit the spot. - Beef chow fun: very tasty noodles with a very generous portion size Again I'll make note that it was a little pricey but expected since it's in a casino. I would definitely eat here again and also found out they have another location in the Rio in Vegas, but I believe that is more dim sum focused. read more

ITS SOOOOOO OFFENSIVE how horrible this place is. The staff is absolutely awful. Like AW-FUL! First, our waiter rolled his eyes while we ordering. Only 4 out for the 6 items that our party ordered came out. While waiting for the others (one of which was an appetizer) a different waitress came to our table to ask if why we're still there. Yes, she's said "why are you still here?" to which we replied "we're still waiting for the rest of our food. After an annoying exchange of "no you didn't","yes we did" I just asked if we can just order the extra two items... of course we can't suddenly. So whatever, I asked for our check. She came back an hovered while I paid and scoffed at my 15 percent tip... girl, did you REALLY think you deserved more after arguing and denying us more to of order?!? This place sucks so so much! read more

Excellent Chinese food . We have been looking for a good place and finally found it .

We've ate here multiple times. It's not worth it. The stupid lady hovers over you when you pay and insists for a certain amount for tip. Since the rewards credit covers some of the bill and when they charge the cc it's always lower than the actual bill so the pre-printed gratuity is less than what the actual bill is. You ignore us, you don't serve us. You don't deserve anything. It's suggested gratuity and really you should get 0! I don't care how busy you are. We wait forever to get help and wait forever to leave. If you want business then work on your god damn service! Sucks there's not that many places in the casino to eat and it's all overpriced restaurants. read more

One of a few choices to eat at while staying at Harrah's, K.J. Chinese Restaurant offers authentic Chinese food that tastes good, but imho, it's overpriced. We ended up here after walking around, as the other options didn't really appeal to us. When we arrived, there was a short line to get in, but we were seated within about 15 minutes. They have seating directly outside the restaurant and some table seating inside. The menu has typical items you'd find at other comparable Chinese restaurants, but because the establishment is sitting in a casino, expect to pay twice as much as you would elsewhere. I have to say that although the food was good, it didn't warrant the prices. Portions were okay, and the service was good, but I probably won't return unless I'm really craving Chinese while I'm staying in the hotel. Overall, it was just an okay experience. read more

Located in Harrahs Casino, KJ's is a solid choice for a meal! We ate around 3:30 and there were hardly any people in the restaurant at the time. It took around 15 minutes to even get seated so be prepared to wait even if it seems pretty empty. The service is not great & we weren't even checked on once. Once we ordered though, the food came out relatively fast. Between three of us, we shared sweet & sour pork, hot & sour soup, XO string beans, & shrimp with black bean sauce. The soup portion is huge, but was a little watery. The XO string beans were good, but nothing crazy. The pork and shrimp were really flavorful & probably one of the best I've tried anywhere. Even if you do family style, this place can be pretty pricey, especially if you get hot tea and rice as they charge per person/bowl. read more

I went to Harrah's for the weekend. Stop at this restaurant. The food was good. Pricey for Chinese. The service!!!! Ridiculous rude!!! Horrible service!! They seat us down. Three the menus on the table. Ask the waiter for tea three time. He kept walking away. He finally brought it! We order our food. We never saw the waiter again. We wanted more tea. Never got it. Such RUDE PEOPLE WORKING THERE. I will NEVER eat there again!!!!! read more

The food was subpar and the service was down right terrible. First the service, our waiter didn't greet us or give us his name. We were brought water that was room temperature and were not asked if we would like anything else to drink. He quickly took our order and then we didn't see him again except when he was walking past us. Not once did he stop to check in on us or ask us if there was anything else we needed. Our water glasses sat empty for almost the entire time we were eating. It wasn't until my husband blocked the path did the waiter finally stop to attend to us. I'm sorry but no matter how busy you are, you need to be checking in on your tables. But of course when it was time for the check we had not one, not two but THREE people hovering around us to handle the check. The lady even tried to tell us how much to tip. This place should not be a sit down restaurant but rather a to-go spot. Secondly the food was subpar. There was absolutely no flavor to the fried rice. And you can tell as much by how pale the color of the fried rice was. It was more like lightly fried rice with some chicken and vegetables. The lo mein was underwhelming. The only somewhat redeeming dish was the kung pao chicken. read more
