Jin Jin - Lake Norman of Iredell

We have ordered food here twice now and the food and service have been amazing. We live about 10 miles away and have tried all of the Chinese restaurants in town and find Jin Jin to have the highest quality of food.It’s worth the drive for us to go to Jin JinSee you again soon!!!

Typical Chinese fast food. There are many with the same name in this area.

We recently started getting takeout from here about a month ago and have gone several times. Each time the portions, food pick up service have been great. There are 3 other Chinese places closer than this one but we drive a little further for the food each time. Our favorites are the Lo Mein, Chicken Broccoli chicken w/ spicy garlic sauce.

Whatever you do, DO NOT get the sweet and sour shrimp. To be honest i kind of thought they were pig feet at first glance, but after further investigation they were massive dough balls with two baby strips not even full pieces of shrimp (see red circle). This place used to be the spot but it’s sad to see what’s become of it. The dough on the inside of these wads was so undercooked and sticky it made it inedible and the shrimp inside was overcooked and rubbery. In the photos, what you see is the left over dough after picking through to find the shrimp. I was really looking forward to some good shrimp for dinner but I’m dismayed. Safe to say I won’t be returning:

Service was great, they were quick to take the order and when I arrived it was ready to roll shortly after. That being all said, the food fell super short of quality. Rice was mushy, and flavors were all over the place. My fried chicken was over saturated in grease and super dark, oil seems to be old hence why the chicken was so dark.
