Jin Chinese Kitchen

Food tasted great, fast service, generous portions and great price. The owners there are super nice

A small mom and pop shop with quick service. It has couple tables inside for seating and shares a small parking lot with el pollo loco. My toddlers loved the black bean noodles and fried dumplings. Overall, the food tastes like the Korean Chinese food that I grew up with, nothing trendy/fancy. Will definitely be returning to try their other items on the menu.

Great little mom and pop shop. Seems like 2 brothers running the show but idk haha. I've been watching a lot of kdrama lately and jjajangmyeong has been my top craving. Definitely had to order that plus the fried dumpling! Food was delicious. The dumpling wrappers were pretty thick so I probably wouldn't order that one again but everyone kept ordering the jjamppong. I definitely need to come back and try that one!

Definitely a hidden gem in Los Angeles. Not your fancy restaurant, but a hole-in-the-wall that I'm so thankful that I found. It's also a mom-and-pop shop which I am more than happy to bring my business here. This place is considered a Korean-Chinese style restaurant where their dishes are known for their jja-jjang-myun (black bean noodles) or the jjamppong (hot and spicy noodle soup). My husband and I usually go to a Ktown chain to get this dish but my heart is set on coming back here for my fix. It's definitely a small restaurant in a plaza that has a good amount of parking. I was able to find a spot easily and so did my friend. I also noticed there was ample street parking as well so parking shouldn't be a problem. As you walk in, it's a very old school, run restaurant where they have wooden menu's and an A/C box running, with an old school tv. Two elderly gentlemen came out with a tea for our drink and then we ordered the black bean noodles (plain) and a stir fried version of it as well as the hot, spicy soupy noodle dish (my favorite). Oh and a happy family seafood dish to share with a friend, my husband, and me. Mind you the portions are pretty decent for what it's worth and had a good amount still by the time we were all done eating. I liked everyone one of the dishes especially the stir fried version of the black bean noodles and the spicy soup. I ate it growing up as a child and it brought back those memories. The soup isn't too spicy anyone who is concerned of spice levels. And I really liked the happy family seafood dish. I never ordered something like that before but my husband had mentioned it's a premium dish that you normally eat with the jja-jjang-myun (black bean noodles) or the jjamppong (hot and spicy noodle soup). As far as service goes, the two gentlemen were sweet and absolutely refilled our teas often. You can tell they were there to provide good service. Luckily this spot is close by my work so I can't wait to introduce this spot to my coworkers. Don't let looks deceive you as the place itself may not be charming, but the food is delicious - I mean, look at the other reviews. You just have to try this place for yourself.

Went today for the first time, and the food was amazing. We ordered the Kung Pao chicken bowl and the black bean noodles. Both were amazing. Will definitely go back.

Excellent food and friendly service! Really an unexpected gem! If you are a discerning gourmet and taste matters, this is THE PLACE to dine in or takeout.

I ordered delivery from this place while I was staying at a hotel in DTLA. They were so quick and efficient in their delivery! I was lured to this place because they had Jjajang Myun and Jjampong. Then I exlored their menu further and I found they had great lunch specials for Kung Pao Chicken, sauteed Green Beans, and more. I LOVED this place for everything they were able to offer as a delivery. I'll for sure come back here the next time I'm staying in DTLA!

The food here is yummy!! The portions are big and the flavor is nice. It's definitely more lowkey but it's worth giving it a try!

In a nutshell: a whole more than just a hole-in-a-wall __________ At first glance, Jin Chinese Kitchen is more underwhelming, a small, dingy hole-in-the-wall sandwiched between two other larger restaurants. Inside, you're greeted by one elderly waiter resembling Flash the sloth in Zootopia, standing amidst a few rickety wooden tables and chairs and couch booths with faded leather. Sitting there, sipping hot water from styrofoam cups, you feel like you've been dropped straight into the streets of China. Despite the Korean signs hung all around the walls and splattered across the menu, Jin Chinese Kitchen is indeed Chinese, and the inconspicuous exterior belies the surprisingly good taste of the food. The Orange chicken bowl with rice surpasses that of Panda Express, striking a nice balance between the juicy, crunchy exterior and the succulent meat underneath. I ordered the Broccoli beef bowl with rice. I will die on the hill that steamed broccoli with sauce is one of the best yet most simple vegetable dishes ever. While the beef was tougher than I'd have liked, the broccoli was perfectly soft, but not soggy. I personally would have preferred more vegetables than beef and rice portion-wise though. General Tso's chicken bowl features all the expected-tender chicken in small chunks, stray slices of soft carrot, sprinkles of crunchy peanut- that is neither epically bad nor outstandingly good. Note: the rice tastes best after a thorough mixing, where each fleck is coated completely in the mildly spicy sauce. The noodle bowls are gigantic and the rice bowls were pretty large too, so our table turned into a buffet, each person partaking in all the other dishes. Small bowls of red soup were also distributed, which, according to my friend, tasted exactly like "instant noodle water." For my group of two hungry families looking for a quick, inexpensive lunch stop during a road trip, Jin Chinese Kitchen did the right trick. The aesthetics might not be at the highest standard, but when you've been stuffed in a car with rambunctious kids and exhausted parents, the food will most certainly satisfy.

This place has a parking lot but it's a small parking lot that is shared with other businesses so, I ended up parking on the street, in front of the parking lot. The place is a tad bit hard to find just because it's sandwiched between other businesses but I found it. I ordered for pick up and the man who was helping me was nice. As for the food, it was better than what I expected. The portions are very generous and the dishes are tasty.
