We enjoyed 4 different sushi rolls as well as some dumplings and egg rolls. Everything was delicious! Great quality food and great service! Very affordable as well (:

Food was excellent! We ordered the chicken egg rolls and I love that they give you 4. I ordered the spicy Dan Dan noodles and it was so good! Made my tongue numb but I was here for the flavor lol! Very yummy. Don't remember what my husband got but he liked his too!

We GO twice a week. Period. You won't get wrong for any authentic dishes. The tea here is my must-order item each time. Quality/Price ratio is very high. Strongly recommend.

This Asian restaurant is incredible. Very Uniquely made and seasoned Asian restaurant far from the typical. This is my forth day eating here and now My family is hooked. I was in search of good salt and pepper shrimp and they have it for anyone who is a shrimp lover. They are Less salty than the ones at Chinese buffets. They also have the shell on or shell off which I've never heard before and both are good. In the Last four days I've had the salt pepper shrimp, shrimp fried rice, chicken wings that are drumstick lollipop style and tender lamb which all entrees are incredible. So happy to have found this place. Lastly the delivery food comes hot and fresh just like if you were there. Thank you and keep up the delicious food!! ❤

The lunch special here is a total steal for how generous the portions are: $10 for your choice of entree, rice, an egg roll, and tea. Besides the great value, the location is awesome. Most of the other shops in this strip mall aren't restaurants, so you don't have worry about finding good parking during mealtimes (as opposed to the more hectic Chinatown).

This is a really nice find for some good Asian cuisine and a quick meal. Really enjoyed the taste and the spices. The dining areas are clean and simple. Jins offers quick and friendly service. The bathrooms were also very clean and overall I enjoyed dining there. The plates were unique. Loved the Lamb ribs plate. That was amazing. It was deliciously spicy and the lamb very tender. Enjoyed the soups and the rice dishes as well. This place has become a regular for delicious Asian food.

Jin’a Cafe-Asian Cuisine quickly became my favorite place for Asian Cuisine! Although the restaurant is legitimately across the street from me, I didn’t know of it until a friend asked me if I ate there before. It was love at the first try!!! I tried the salt and pepper shrimp and loved it. My friend tried the lamb ribs and loved it. Next time, we tried the shrimp fried rice, the butter fish, fish fillet, milk green tea and other items on their menu. EVERYTHING is legitimately delicious. They serve a very generous portion!!! I always have left over when I order from there. After ordering for delivery a lot of times, I actually ate in the restaurant and I was very pleased. The place is clean, the staff is very friendly, and it’s really quiet. A peaceful and beautiful place to eat delicious food. They offer a variety of vegetarian options that are vegetables and tofu based. LeLe and Penny are amazing! Thank you for making our dinning in experience as great as our delivery experience.

The food is filling and tasty. I ordered the Grilled Tilapia whole. I also had mango green tea which came in a nice plastic container. The parking was sufficient and the restaurant was partially filled so there was plenty of seating. My brother and I went to see our father. I haven't seen my dad in several years because I lived out of the country and when I came back to Houston, he had moved out of Houston. He came to visit for the weekend. They didn't have an issue with me bringing a cake I made for my dad for his birthday. We were there a long time catching up. It was lovely because no one was rude or mean to us for staying so long. Definitely a must try place.

5/29/2022: another delicious dinner at Jin’s. Julie, the owner, is great and happy. The flavors are delicious and keeps us coming back about once a month. 4/15/2022: Another great experience! Delicious flavors! Note: the menu did an increase of prices given our current financial situation. These were updated by sticks on a laminated menu. I’m not a fan, but I’m there to eat not critique their menus. 11/19/2021 Another 5 star experience. Glad this restaurant made it through the tough 2020 year. Don't let the location deter you from making your way over to this delicious restaurant. The portions are large and the prices are small (about $10-14/ dish). The spiciness wasn't too overpowering. The flavor addres on point for traditional Chinese. The Chinese music helped create a fun ambiance. Friendly service. I'll definitely be back. 3/5/2020 Update: Food is stil delicious! Friendly and prompt service!

Definitely a modern twist on Szechuan. Some Szechuan places overpower their dishes, this place is really subtle. There are some common Chinese dishes and some not so common. Very bold move for this area. The star of this place is the fried lamp spareribs w/ dry chili, boiled beef in hot chili sauce, & spicy fried crispy chicken wings. The teas are great and light. The cups are definitely reusable and upscale. I will definitely be coming back. The price is not bad either.

Omg, highly recommended! They have a good selection of authentic Chinese food on the menu for you to explore, they definitely have something for everyone. Love the lamb dish, very tender and juicy, covered with crusted pepper and seasonings.

We came an hour before closing, so there weren't many people there. It is very quiet and nice. We ordered the lamp ribs, which is a lot, and the eggplant with shrimp. Both were great. The staff is also very nice. I would come here again.

The dishes were pretty tasty. The egg and shrimp was buttery and not over/under cooked. The smoke spare ribs had a lot of "toppings" that balanced it out very well. Meat was tender. The hot and sour soup was thin which made me nervous but it was pretty decent. I would recommend giving this place a try. We will be back to try other dishes

Came here to try their signature lamb ribs. They're fantastic. I put down the utensils after I found that it was too difficult to get all the meat off the bones with them. With one hand, much easier. The peanut and pepper flakes were delicious in their own right.

Six of us came in for lunch today and can honestly say the food is very unique and different from any other Szechuan Chinese restaurants. I really enjoyed the Napa cabbage, the kids loved the walnut shrimp and the potstickers, and my in-laws loved the spicy fish and lamb spareribs. Give this place a try, the service is attentive and the food is definitely authentic and fresh.

The outside may not look like much but the inside is small and cute, homelike relaxing vibes, we got there at 12pm on a weekday, upon entering we were greeting and seated, the strawberry 🍓 milk was yummy, honey green tea refreshing, pork potstickers flavorful, lunch special yummy and big portions, we enjoyed it.

Really want to try the hype and yes it’s totally worth it. This is very authentic Chinese restaurant which my mom and I definitely come back. The customer service is great, parking lots are plenty, and the food is awesome. We tried the whole tilapia grilled and the lamb rib. The lamb rib is juicy and tasty. My mom like the fish because of its flavorful. The manager is very nice, she knows exactly what we want throughout the pictures. I’ll be back to try more dishes.

I found this place randomly looking for asian food, and I'm so happy I got here. We ordered the crispy smoke pork ribs, special fried rice and mongolian beef. Everything was delicious, but those ribs were mind blowing, I could come again just to order that, and the menu looked so delicious, I want to try everything.
