Jims in Seaside

I stumbled upon this place when my Chinese food cravings hit, and to my delight, they were open. Even though we arrived just 30 minutes before closing time, the staff was incredibly welcoming and friendly. The food exceeded our expectations - every dish we ordered was delicious. We wouldve definitely become regulars if we lived in town. The outstanding food and the warm hospitality left a lasting impression.

Don’t let the small store front fool you, this is some of the best Chinese food Ive had in america, and the dishes exactly matches traditional Chinese cooking. The price is very reasonable and the servers are very friendly. Suggest whoever goes to try out the century egg congee

Very friendly and quick service. We ordered the human beef and shrimp specials. The food was outstanding. The Chow Mein was some of the best weve ever had. Id definitely go back. They also have boba tea that was made with fresh fruit.

Jim’s is the best Chinese place in the area. The workers are so kind, the portions are large, and they almost always include a “free gift” with our meals. I highly recommend the Mandarin Chicken.

I brought multiple mom here after reading the reviews. I am glad we came.Its a hole in the wall place...but well worth the visit.Its easy to miss if you drive by...its in the corner with a green awning.We sat down and we looked over the menu. We decided to try the sweet and sour pork with half fried rice half chow mein.While we waited on our food they brought is these free appetizers...oh my goodness they were delicious. I did not expect that.The staff was so nice and attentive.Honestly I did not like the chow mein...but the fried rice was really good and the sweet and sour pork was amazing.The chicken was crispy and not over cooked...I loved the sauce...delicious flavor.If I come back to Pacific grove...I will definitely come back here...

Jims is so good, the best in town. Be warn on the waiting time during meals as they do get crazy busy with their popularity in the vicinity but its all so worth it.Appreciate the little gesture from the owner on the complimentary sesame ball and spring rolls, fried on order and served hot.

We stopped by at Jim’s Chinese restaurant for dinner, we were greeted by a friendly waitress, who promptly took our order as soon as we got our delicious hot and sour soup, the owner came out with a complimentary sesame chicken appetizer which was yummy. The rest of our meal was perfectly cooked and delicious. I would highly recommend Jim’s if your in town. They deserve 5 stars.

Some of the best and mostly tasty food! Helen is awesome. Always gifts us a surprise treat. If you are looking for quick and tasty takeout, this is the place!

Very friendly owner. Ordered food by phone, food was hot and ready when I arrived. I was greeted upon entering. Ordered beef vegetable deluxe with chow mein. Food was good and not overly salty like many others. If you prefer more salt, a packet of soy sauce should suffice. Owner gave me some appetizers for free, which was a nice touch to my visit. The restaurant is open for in house dining. The space is small, yet cozy.

The owner was very attentive and you could tell she cared about her food going out the door.The portions were huge. I had dumplings, egg rolls, crab wontons and sesame chick n with fried rice. It was enuf for 4people. I dropped a pin I’ll be back.
