Jia's Wok — Restaurant in Reno

Both the food and the service can be either hit or miss, but fortunately, the food is more "hit" than "miss". If you happen to arrive when the food has just been recently been added to the steam table, the food is delicious. If the food has been sitting out for awhile, it can be greasy and flavorless. The service on the other hand, is more "miss" than "hit". The women behind the counter are kind of gruff, and rarely smile. Despite this however, I am very appreciative and grateful to the fact that they always have food that is ready to go - a big plus when you are very hungry and short on time! Perhaps this is why I keep going there.

Anywhere else would be far far far better. Oh and before I forget the people who work there speak very little English so please speak slowly. Not joking. I'll give it that they were not rude but it would help if they would listen closer. Definitely will not...

I have lived in Nevada for over 22+ years and absolutely 💯 love being a Nevadan. Originally we are from Souther California and we would miss the Chinese food UNTIL we found Jia's Wok. What a wonderful taste of home. The smell, even the vibes but the TASTE. Oh My Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown... the taste is uncanny. They make such goooooood food. Their 3 meat option is by far the best. I get full and go home with extra. They even have the most high lovely spirited women working there and one grumpy man. Just like back in California (just for the food) 🤣. It gets super packed with people eating in and taking out. And that there, tells you enough. It's...
