Generals chicken cost $20, flavorless. The veggie spring rolls were good but didn't like the sauce. Moo-shoo was just ok. No plum sauce. Portions were decent but I would have rathered it tasted good with smaller portions at this price point. Spent nearly $80 for four items. The driver was expedient and delivered hot food. Appreciated that.

I often write reviews on my blog. However, I wanted to get this out there asap.
The vegetables in all 4 dishes were perfectly crisp, without being undercooked. The beef was excellent as was the sauce and Asparagus Beef/ 芦笋牛肉.
Kung Pao Shrimp/宮保蝦 was delicious as well as the sauce.
Even old standbys, like Broccoli Chicken/芥蘭雞 were outstanding. I tried the Chicken Salad ( Large ) /雞丝沙拉 and the lettuce was fresh a filet was sliced to go well with the sauce.
I was very pleased with this dinner as a whole. I have eaten there several rimes and every meal was good. I recommend this restaurant and hope you have the same excellent food and service. Bon Appetit!

Loved all the dishes I ordered today. I have periodic cravings for Lemon Chicken and I found that most places do an ok job. But, I was so pleasantly surprised that Joy House made it the way I love...lightly tempura'd on thinly cut chicken breast ( I believe) with lemon sauce on the side so I can dip. I also love the tomato beef chow mein. I love that I can sub protein ( chicken) since I'm allergic to beef. They put both beef and chicken instead, but I just removed the beef. Next time, I'll need to make a more specific note. Such great flavor!
And of course I had to order sesame balls. My all time fav!

Joy House has the best tomato beef in the area. To get something comparable, you'd have to go to South Sac. Jin dui (sesame balls) are my fave, and these were spot on delicious.

The order took over an hour. We ordered General Chicken/左宗雞 and Chow Fun with Spicy Beef and Basil /九層塔辣椒炒牛河. The chicken dish was soggy, smoky and so salty I couldnt eat more than two bites. The noodle dish had beef that was unflavored and over soft. In fact the beef pieces were so small we had trouble finding meat over noodles. The Fried Cheese Wonton（10pc） /炸云吞 were good. One star for those.
