Reviews For J J's Wok N Grill

Arrived just before our pick-up time and they were finishing our order. Fried rice was delicious and not spicy at all, si chuan cool noodle was delicious and pretty hot- had lots of chili pepper. Crab rangoons were delicious and stuffed with more cream cheese/crab mixture than you usually get at places. The kitchen looked clean and the workers looked professional and friendly. There are several tables to eat in but I wouldn't want to.

Ordered food to go, it was delicious. Portion is huge. Now I know I can split it. The Crab Rangoon is exceptional and also the Shrimp Si Chuan Cold Noodle. It is a bit of a wait but well worth it.

We had the cold Sichuan noodle, Mapo tofu with chicken, and gong Bao chicken. Everything was unexpectedly spicy but that’s exactly how I like it. Will be going back to try new things!

Food was hot and great! Pictured is the general chicken with steamed rice. Perfect amount of spice and sweetness. They do only accept cash or check right now so just be aware of that. Really friendly lady at the cash register :)

One of my favorite places to go in the area. JJ is awesome and works very hard. The wait can be long because they are in such high demand. JJ is generally the only one cooking but his food is always worth the wait. This is primarily a take out business so your best chance is going in person. In house dining is available but it’s still only counter service. They prioritize in house customers so if they don’t answer the phone they are likely already swamped. Again, only one cook so be patient and trust you will have the best Chinese food in houghton. I’ve been addicted to his general tso, always adding broccoli and jalapenos to make it extra spicy.

A perennial favorite since college. Their crab rangoons are the best you'll ever have. Good service from a knowledgeable crew, food made by an absolute top-notch cook. The restaurant floor is deceiving simple and sparse for the quality of food being served.

Our family has our favorites. My daughter gets the chicken and mushrooms, wofe says the rangoons are great. I like the Sesame Balls and the Hot and Sour Soup. Orange Chicken, Kung Pao, Pad Thai all great. Dine in or take out. It doesn’t look like you would be allowed to eat inside, but you are. Sometimes the wait could be long, but it is worth it.
