j & j wonton noodle house

really fresh food but not what i expected. the servers were totally rude so i didn't tip which upset her even more! food is decent but kind of overrated.

one of the best in town. never disappointed when i visit this place, have tried many menu items over the course of the last 10 years. daily lunch specials are also decent value.

good menu . i had bbq duck on noodles. generous portion. duck was moist, not greasy

wonton noodle soup is a thing of minimalist beauty, broth is refreshing, simple and devoid of the usual additives we've come to expect at most chinese restaurants.

it has the style of a common chinese food restaurant that we all know and are familiar with. the food quality is above good. i did find that my food taste a little saltier than i would like (then again, it might have beene taste buds that night). i like their selection. the regular menu needs a little sprucing up. it seems to have a good following but it definitely more pricier than what you would expect. same kind of meal found in richmond or vancouver would be generally half the price. for example, the bbq pork fried rice lshould not cost more than $8 (tops in van or richmond) but $12??! sorry, but the restaurant i found isn't as high end quality as you would get at a fancy vancouver downtown hotel restaurant. it's not made out to be that way therefore i couldn't seem to justify the quantity and quality to be this overpriced. one caveat in their defense though could be the cost of food prices on the island comparative to the mainland. but it shouldn't be that justifiable with respect to price of rice as in my example. they must make a huge profit from the sale of fried rice (rice prices haven't gone that high up). i think they raised the prices across the board on their menu in retrospect because all the prices seem high for the quantity and quality of the food. i know this may be long but i guess i was shocked at my bill. i liked the restaurant's atmosphere as it reminded me of a typical local above average rest from the mainland. and, i'm just trying to find anything to steer me from the disappointment of the higher price and not giving jerky review. rating: 4/6

love this place!. when i walk in for lunch i'm always greeted like family, and the servers can usually tell by looking at me that i want the spicy ginger chicken noodle soup, which is the best comfort food i can imagine! i've also had dinner here, and have had take out many times. it never fails to please.

pretty good food, iffy service. went on friday night around 730. food came very quickly. ordered black been beef with noodles. the beef was good, but the noodles weren't much. the service was mechanical, but they don't even qc the food after they serve, or ask you if you would like a beverage, rather, they slam a teapot down and walk away. water? you want a glass of water? that's the reply you get when you ask for a glass of water.

i used to eat lunch at jj around once every two weeks, but i can't remember why i stopped going there. the restaurant is popular, and if you come at the busiest times, you you will have to share one of the big tables (something i kind of enjoy, although m

poor service, decent food.. we went for their dinner menu. the food is good, how can it not be- there's like 4 chefs cooking in one tiny kitchen. you can definitely feel the heat from the kitchen as you enter the restaurant. the serving is half full compare to the size of the plate, and they are extremely overpriced. the service staff are very choosy to whom they'll serve to. they will purposely attend to customers that worth their time. but however is the service, they definitely make sure to ask you for a tip before you leave, especially if you are using your credit card to pay. be wary. perhaps the tip is for the tea, they served as you take a seat. your best bet is to just do take-outs.

wonton?. wonton house? what wontons? there are only 2 kinds on the menu and they're crazy expensive. horrible service, dingy place, overpriced. no good.

if it's available, get the halibut dish. it's very good!

back to basics. i like it. the basics of chinese food. cant complain for a town that doesnt have a lot of authentic choice of chinese food. jj always delivers but maybe at a steep price.

worth a try.. best springrolls in town. peach and shrimp. mmmmmm

fantastic fresh seafood restaurant! tasty and authentic!
