Jay's makes the whole process easy and seamless. We worked with Brittany, and she was such a joy to work with. She kept us informed and helped us every step in the process. Their tasting events also are very helpful in choosing the menu for your event. At first we originally had a menu selected, but after attending the tasting event and trying various items, we ended up changing our menu. If you have the privilege to work with Jay's you should choose them! Jay's catering also caters food at a cafe at my work and all my coworkers love their food. Just another verification that Jay's has awesome food.

That is an unbelievable amount of time to wait. In addition, she did not give us everything we ordered. She ended up substituting some of the items. It was so very sad just thinking about this. The worst part was she did not immediately apologize but instead made excuses. So unreal and unprofessional. She brought us desserts at a later date but I think the damage was done.

We really enjoyed the garlic noodles, musubi, toasts, short ribs, and veggies. I personally enjoyed the food so much that I stopped by lunch service. Picked up a Philly Melt, Salmon Soba Noodle Salad, and Vietnamese Coffee cookie. The food was made to order. It was prepared hot and fresh. The salmon had such good flavor. Unfortunately, they forgot to pack the dressing for the soba noodles so I didn't get to enjoy it fully. Nonetheless, the Philly Melt was very savory and so good with the grilled onions. Cookie was also tasty and has a nice chew. Overall enjoyed Chef Carol's food and excited to come back for lunch service.

They have a wide variety of filling options so you can pick and choose what you prefer. I definitely recommend calling ahead of time to place an order since they fry the egg rolls fresh. Sometimes they can be a bit behind on their time estimates, I had an experience where I needed the tray be ready for pick up when I got there and they were still making it. But that's the only negative and can be circumvented if you call ahead. Overall a good stop for a tray for a potluck or party. Nothing flashy inside and it's definitely a mom and pop operation. But for the price and quality, it can't be beat.

The ambiance is a "pick up" establishment - just a counter and refrigerators that is stocked with frozen egg rolls for those that want to cook it home. Convenient, delicious and variety of egg rolls that would fit any palate and preference... Pork, Shrimp, Chicken, Vegetarian...

Kim Hong Eggrolls

Yelp me, Yelp you!…read more Kim Hong Egg Rolls is the definition of a hole-in-the-wall--or maybe a wall-in-the-hole--but either way, the egg rolls are absolutely worth finding! The egg rolls are crispy, fresh, flavorful, and seriously addicting. The staff was very nice and even gave me a sample while I waited. I wasn't able to call ahead and was just trying my luck, but fortunately, they had 100 egg rolls ready for me right on the spot. There's no dining area, so you'll probably be eating them in your car, which I honestly didn't mind because they were so good. Just be careful--you might finish half the order before you even get home! Definitely call ahead because they sell out quickly. Great egg rolls, friendly service, and very reasonable prices. I'll definitely be back!

The most OG spot in OC to get eggrolls. You can't go wrong with bringing a tray of these from here…read more We usually only get the pork+shrimp, but they have a variety of other combos. You know this place is good because this is ALL THEY MAKE. Egg rolls or any kind of variation of it. I love how crispy they are and that they don't cover the foil too much so that it doesn't get soggy when it gets to your location. Leftovers also heat up really well in the air fryer!!! This a simple case of the hole in the wall place = LEGIT.

They had 3 out of 9 flavors when I was here: #1, #8, #9

Overall, the kids are obsessed with their jumpers, and we love how easy and stress-free the whole experience is. Supporting a great family company while making birthday parties extra fun? 10/10 would recommend!
