For real? I read through almost 200 reviews here, and only seen one negative review. I F* knew I should've listened to her! I grew up in the "hood" and the best place to eat was Chinese take out. No one spoke a word of English except for one girl at the counter, and the only sentences she knew were, "tank you, preez." And " It be ten minute ready for you.". At Jin Jin I didn't see one Asian person. I thought okay, but the reviews were all great, so it has to be at least some-what decent. Wrong.

They said I wont like it and almost demanded I get something else. They say I didn't know what it was and said- not that I might not like it- no... they said I DONT like it. They ask if I've been here before. Like it matters? What if I LOVE what I'm ordering? What if I want something new? They ask the same thing over and I give in. I order something I didn't want in the first place (with shrimp sauce???) And it tastes bland. The sweet and sour didn't help either. tl;dr: people are rude, no decor, food is...
