    It was good typical Chinese food About like every other Chinese restaurant, staff was very friendly Food hot , no ice in the drinks But I was very hungry and it was clean and easy to find

    I think mine was Hunan triple delight & my husband had beef with ?broccoli but it had green bell peppers in it.

    Food was very good. Mine said spicy but was not. Next time I will ask for extra spice. Reasonable prices and open on Monday. We got the shrimp fried egg rolls and they were delicious and all big shrimp inside. Service was very friendly and attentive. Clean restaurant. We will be back!

    Food is delicious and service is excellent! Took a lunch break while working and stopped by here. Their prices for the lunch special are very reasonable and they have a lot to choose from. The food came out almost immediately. Will eat here again.

    Fried Pork Dumplings (Steamed or Pan-Fried) (6)

    We arrived tonight and they were slammed.. little bit of a wait, but even those waiting in line said it was worth it. My barber said this was the best Chinese food in San Antonio and he wasn't lying. Egg rolls - good, given how busy they were, they would have been better fresh, but they taste great. Steamed and Fried dumplings - yes we got both - both were amazing. Orange chicken - Off the chain delicious - chicken was moist and the flavor amazing Sweet and sour chicken - tender and delicious! If the food can taste this good when they are literally hammered by tables and pickups... I can only imagine what it tastes like in the steady hum of a regular evening.

    Sweet & Sour Chicken

    The crab cheese puffs were AMAZING! They had so much filling and the flavors were spot on! The sweet and sour chicken was cooked perfectly, no weird pieces of chicken, loved the crispiness on it! The sesame chicken was huge, the sauce on it was a compliment to the chicken instead of being overpowering! It was cooked perfectly and the chicken to breading ratio was amazing! It did come with white rice and fried rice, nothing to special but still was delicious! 9/10 would recommend!

    Cashew Chicken l

    T Jin's China Diner is a wonderful restaurant nestled in a small strip of businesses in the Stone Oak area. We don't live nearby but find ourselves in the area from time to time and this little place will be a go-to stop for us. In fact, we'll make a drive just to visit. The food is delicious and the service was wonderful. We visited on a week night and didn't expect them to be busy, but in short order during the evening they got increasingly busy. The service was so good that it seemed like they had it down to a science keeping everyone taken care of and quickly cleaning empty tables to keep clients coming in. On the night we busted we had egg drop soup, egg rolls, and cashew chicken. It was flavorful and hot, and beautifully served. The menu is extensive so there's plenty to choose from and plenty for us to try on future visits. Looking forward to stopping in again.

    Chicken Corn Soup

    We stayed in the Stone Oak area for dinner last night. We went to one of our favorites, @tjinchina281. Michael and team took care of us. Dad had Lemonade, and Hubby and I had Jasmine Tea. We had the Chicken Corn Soup to start. We shared the Cashew Chicken, House Special Tofu, and Orange Shrimp. Great flavors and tender meats! We're so glad that this restaurant survived the pandemic and continually have many patrons.

    This place isn't great, and its not awful. But it is consistent. The food always tastes hot and freshly cooked but the flavor for me lacks a bit. The service is good whether ordering out or dining in, my husband has stomach issues and their food never upsets his stomach so at least I know they are using quality ingredients. He would give them a five star, so my rating is purely on flavor, everything else there is fine. I ordered shrimp with lobster sauce and even though my shrimp were cleaned and deveined they still had that dirt taste, it was weird. My husband had the amazing chicken and he loves it, I would have been better off ordering that, it was pretty good. Nonetheless, like I said, for me it was about the flavor, everything else would be a 5 star.

The staff is super friendly and courteous :) ! We usually order the beef vermicelli soup, and a variety of dumplings :D ! They serve our food pretty promptly, with the soup still hot and tasty, and the dumplings steamy and savory :D ! My sister doesn't eat pork. So she typically orders dumplings that don't contain pork. I eat all kinds of meat. So I always order the pork and chive dumplings :D ! Whether you come in on a weekday or weekend, it always helps to come early if you can! If we want to go there for lunch, we try to get there as close to 11 am as possible when they first open. As it gets closer to 12 noon, it starts to get really busy, and it's harder and trickier for the staff to seat you. There is both booth and table seating. It's a great restaurant to catch up with friends, family or even colleagues over a good meal :) ! The parking lot out in front is a pretty decent size. But it can fill up pretty quickly when it gets busy! We also love ordering frozen dumplings to go :D ! For sure, we will definitely come back :D ! Kung Fu Noodle never disappoints :) !

They have skewers as well!

It's been about a year or so since we've been coming here fairly regularly and I really cannot complain about anything specific. Most meals are excellent with a I miss now and then, but overall, I would never complain about that. The price of their meals seem to be stuck in a world without crazy tyrant leaders, and inflation out the roof, though I don't know for how much longer that will remain. Wah Kee!

We noticed the decor had changed (yes, I said it had been many years) and it was quite nice! We were seated promptly and placed our drink order (tea came with lunch). We ordered Rangoon as a starter. The lunch specials came with soup and egg roll, and fried rice. DH ordered his litmus test dish for American style Chinese- General Tso chicken. The portion was generous. The sauce was tasty. The chicken pieces tasted like your average frozen nuggets tossed in sauce. It's that familiar "seasoning" to the chicken and coating- iykyk. Not bad at all, just not the best. He enjoyed his egg drop soup. I opted for Hunan Beef. The sauce was thicker than I prefer, with an almost gelatinous consistency. The hot and sour soup was nice, a little more sour than hot. We both thought the fried rice that came with lunch was a little bland. Maybe the entree version is better? Each special was under $10, and it's definitely a great value.

The appetizer we ordered (veggie steamed dumplings) came out with one less dumpling than promised on the menu. My wife's noodles were nothing special, as was my spicy/numbing pot. I felt my pot in particular, was over-loaded with huge chunks of veggies that could have been better chopped as to be more manageable.

All wanted Pho. After reading different reviews and based on our location, we decided on Pho Kim Long. Little place right on the corner. When we walked in, place was busy... Noon on a Saturday but we were seated right away. The wait staff was super friendly. We ordered an order of Crab Ragoons and each of us ordered a bowl of Pho. The Crab Ragoons were very good sin size and portion of cream cheese to wrapper. Freshly fried.. Crispy on the outside and soft warm in the inside. I got the combination Pho with Brisket, Rare Steak and Meatballs. Good portion of each type of meat. Broth was hot and so very comforting. Great sense of complex of spices in the broth. Nice portion of the traditional garnishes that comes with Pho. All of us were able to equally share them. Prices very reasonable and all of us left with our tummies full.

However, my most recent encounter has soured me completely, and I think I will never return. My favorite dish here was something that did not appear on the menu, Bo Tai Chanh salad. Even though it was not listed, they would whip it up at my request. It consists of beef cappaccio on an iceberg lettuce salad with Vietnamese vegetables and a fish sauce based dressing. Tonight they refused my order. What makes this refusal all the more frustrating is that Pho Bo Tai Chanh (the soup version) is listed on the menu and promoted as one of the favorite dishes. All that was needed, to meet my request, was to cut up half a head of lettuce and throw the non-liquid ingredients of the soup on top. Every restaurant should remember the customer is always right. Their only purpose is to meet their customers' requests to the best of their ability. I understand when a kitchen cannot meet requests with the ingredients or equipment they have. For example, I always call 24 hours ahead to order Peking Duck because the traditional methods require that amount of time to prepare the dish. Or I remember being refused a request to have my meat served rare when the restaurant had already cooked all its meat to medium rare using sous vide. I don't expect the kitchen to do the impossible. But every kitchen must be ready to meet special request whether health related like peanuts, shrimp, gluten, salt, carbohydrates, etc. or relate to tastes or ethics like vegetarian, vegans, seafood, etc. To fail one's customers is the first step to being one of the numerous restaurants to fail and become irrelevant. Any restaurant that refuses to meet reasonable requests fails the fundamental test for good service and does not deserve to be patronized. P.S. I end up going down the road to Yaya's Thai Restaurant (another local restaurant) to get something that met my tastes and preferences.
