I had to come in here to see if anyone noticed the rodent droppings reported in dirty dining it literally made my stomach turn, they literally found rat poop in the flour they use to cook, in the prep spoons, by sitting area, prep area the fact that they’ve had so many violations for so long I’m surprised people are still going here.

CLOSED DOWN DUE TO RODENT ACTIVITY, and then failed reinspection over and over again! What in the world is wrong with people, how difficult is it to keep your place clean for people who spend their hard-earned money and buy food from your business. This is South florida, not some third world country.

This place was just closed by the board of health. Over 100 rat droppings everywhere, near food, cooking utensils, microwave. Raw chicken was stored next to raw pork. What the hell? Are they trying to kill people. They should not be allowed to reopen. So gross, and I've ordered from this place before..... never again.I'm giving one star because I'm being forced to in order to post this review
I had been told that J's was the best Chinese around. Sadly, it was anything but. We had been told that they were backed up, so we waited patiently but when we got home, the food was cold and part of the order was missing. Not sure who would like this food, but it was objectively bad. We will not be going back. Perhaps our worst meal in Boca in three years.

The food was delicious so if you ever think about trying it you won't regret it because I want me another lemon pepper honey chicken sandwich with the fries

Very nice customer service with just alright food. Cashier that picked up the phone was very nice and was patient with taking a large order. The driver that delivered our food was great too. Now the food was a bit disappointing for sure. The food was pretty standard, flavor was decent with the pieces of pork being pretty standard. The soups weren’t that great and could be skipped entirely but it was a nice addition to the combination platters I’ve never seen anyway other else. The general tsos chicken was a sad depressment, that resembled sort of a popcorn chicken that was just lightly tossed in some BBQ sauce. No spice what so ever and just didn’t taste right. Just an ok spot.

I am not one to write google reviews but the white rice was not fresh, the beef in the fried rice was uncooked, the crab Rangoons were empty and chicken had a weird sour taste wasn’t fresh. I would do a better job cooking the food. We were all seriously concerned we were going to get food poisoning. We will never order from here again. The cheap food isn’t worth it.
