J J Hong Kong Cafe

I can count on J J Cafe being open late and having amazing authentic food. Parking is easy in their lot. Pleasant atmosphere and friendly wait service. I ordered the Won Ton Soup. I also ordered the Pork Hocks and Beef Stew Lo Mein. We got to put some of those noodles in our soup. Tender meat.

Open until 2 AM! Every dish only $10! JJ Hong Kong Café — I’ve been eating here for over ten years!

I came here in mid 2022 and also just recently in Nov of 2024. My 2nd experience was as good as the first one. The pineapple bun was literally life-changing. The other dishes were good as well, but nothing stellar. The service was quick and very good. They are also open till really late and the whole restaurant has the vibe of a Wong Kar-wai film. Highly-recommended place!

We came here for late night food at midnight. The food was wonderful, I will have to come back and try other items. The menu was extensive and long.

A few days ago, I met up with my childhood friend from Guangdong at USC at a long-established restaurant in the LA Chinatown. The ingredients are top-notch, the portions are generous, and the taste is consistently good! It's near the university, so there are lots of students around. Perfect for a bowl of congee before class or a steak afterwards. Also a great place to have a comfortable Thanksgiving meal if you're too lazy to cook. Peanut Butter French Toast $9 Golden and fluffy, with a soft, sticky peanut butter filling. Served with a small box of syrup, sweet and fragrant.

JJ Cafe has been a staple in the 626 for decades, and it’s easy to see why. I’ve always loved their huge portions and affordable prices — you really can’t go wrong here. My go-to order is the ribeye steak with pasta and pepper sauce, and it hits every time. Their lemon iced tea is also super refreshing and pairs perfectly with any meal. It’s a great spot for gatherings with friends or family, with plenty of indoor seating and a friendly staff that makes you feel right at home. If you’re looking for a reliable neighborhood favorite that never disappoints, JJ Cafe is it.

Been here a few times. The service here is slow when it gets busy. Parking is pretty easy in the underground parking garage. We ordered Beef Chow Fun, chicken fried steak and smelt roe fried rice. Our favorite dish is the smelt roe fried rice. The beef Chow Fun is just alright not much wok hei flavor. The chicken fried steak is big and juicy. We have been here many times for breakfast and lunch.

Been going to this restaurant at least once per week for years!!! The prices are back to being decent :) (I think they sold the business recently. New staff and a dinner special menu. I think the food servings are slightly less than before. Parking arrangements may have changed, the parking lots are now separated. Use underground parking if necessary) I recently went back several times, I think they stopped serving soup during lunch. If they're going to stop doing the lunch special soup, I wish they will tell me how to make the beef tomato soup lol Staff are okay. Frequently packed during mealtime specials. Waiting service can get extremely busy. My favorite dishes are amazing!!!! There's quite a bit of seating. They do take group reservations for rentals, but I don't know the details. I remember you could rent the small room, not sure if they still do that. Atmosphere has a slight cozy feel for a place that can seat so many people. Awhile back, I went here to buy fried rice because of the epidemic. It was nice and empty. Service was fast while I waited outside for the cooks. I ordered Western style fried rice. One of my favorite dishes here! The food was so hot that the steam coming from the bag was burning my fingers while holding the bag. There was plastic/styrofoam chips in my fried rice. The bottom of my boxes had HUGE cracks in them; I think the intense exposure to the heat and weight of the foods caused the boxes to become brittle and crack while sitting on top of soup containers. It's not a severe problem, I got home and flipped the box upside down onto a dish after getting several bites of styrofoam bits in my mouth. The spoon scooping had enough force to just chip styrofoam polymer pieces off, the foam was now hard brittle plastic. Great food, I'd order it again during the shutdown to see if the problem still persists but the solution is to flip it into a heat-safe container, like ceramic. Overall: This place is outstanding!!! The food is great, staff can be helpful, and it amazing enough to bring my friends and family.
