T Jin China Diner

Amazing dinner! Can’t believe I hadn’t been here before. We ordered the wonton soup crab rangoons to start and they were excellent. For our entrees we had chicken pad thai and sesame chicken with fried rice. Everything came out quickly and was so fresh. Date night for less than $ 30? That’s a win in my book. Will definitely be back again.

The fried rice was a joke. The food was very bland and tasteless. I asked for the most extreme spicy. That too was a joke. Wasn’t spicy at all. The server mocked how I liked to eat my food. That was just plain rude. The only reason I gave it even a star (aside from the fact I can’t give it zero star) was that the portions are pretty good.
Also they used what tasted like canned mushrooms. That was a first. Gross.

Ordered food to go. Very friendly, amount of food was enough to feed me for 3 days, but the rice was terrible to me. One bite of fried rice and I threw it away. Will return though!

In for a few days and place is very quick and not many here mid week. Ordered Fried prawns and hot and sour soup all out very quick. Hot and steamy, great service and knowledgable of the menu. Order beef and scallop dish with white rice. very good amount and fair price for the quality of the food you get. Great dinner spot, must check out if in town

This is my go-​to place for take-​out. The sweet and sour pork is great. Reasonably priced especially if you go for the lunch specials. On the chicken dishes they tend to use chunks of chicken that are too big, so it ends up being a little dry. Every beef dish I’ve had is really good though.

Great food. We are in town visiting, and it’s not your typical cheap Chinese food. It all tasted fresh and delicious. Huge portions and a quiet calm clean dining atmosphere. With all the choices in college station we ate here twice!

This location has a quite quaint atmosphere with asian music playing and a few booths and tables. Food portions of huge. I had the tofu pad thai which was really good but very mild. The crab ragoons were fantastic and came with 6 pieces and a large bowl of sweet and sour sauce. Service was really good and food was delivered very quickly.

We were here visiting my sister, who just moved here. The food & service were very good. We will be back. Very inexpensive.

Tasty food, generous portions, fast and friendly service (order is out in ten minutes), affordable prices.

Came in on Christmas Day, only restaurant open. Food was great, service was good and attentive. Portions were very large and flavors were good. Only downfall was it took a little while to get the check.

We ordered lunch Mongolian beef, Kung pao three delight, and kids portion lo mein. All portions were very large. $ 22 and we took two plates home. I’m so glad to taste some delicious Chinese food here. I haven’t tried all the places yet so I can’t really compare but it’s been hard to choose based on Unilocal reviews. We will definitely be back. Food was great, service was extremely friendly, everything came out fast and piping hot. Probably the worst part is how dimly lit the place is. But really it’s not a negative for me and my light sensitive eyes. Highly recommend

Stumbled upon this place while I was visiting, and I wish I didn’t in the best way possible. The service was extraordinary– they were so nice and everything we asked for arrived really fast. They pile their dishes high and the prices are so low. I ordered wantons, soup, and chicken lo mein. Best I’ve ever had. Wish this restaurant and I were in the same city.

Really good food and service. Lunch is reasonably priced. Dinner is less so. Big portions. No wait.

I ordered the steamed beef and vegetables. My beef came out not fully cooked and it was cold. I told the waitress and all she said was «sorry, we will do better next time. Let me tell the chef.» I didn’t get to order another meal or was offered any sort of compensation. The price you pay for the food is not worth it because the quality is terrible. It almost seemed as if the food was refrigerated and reheated before it was brought out to us because it came out 5 minutes after our order was placed and the restaurant was pretty crowded at the time.
AND THEN my fortune cookie HAD NO FORTUNE.

A far cry from Chinese Food. My wife and I carried out a Chicken Fried Rice and some Egg Drop Soup. The rice was made without eggs and with what I can only describe as ‘modular rubberized’ chicken bits. The soup was equally unappetizing as half of it was of an oily nature, effectively creating two layers; top half oil/​bottom half soup. Not an ideal first impression.

Huge portions, good prices and amazing service ! Everyone is so nice and the hot tea is outstanding.

Love this place!!! Their food, service, and prices were all fantastic. All white meat, quality chicken. It will be our go to place when in that area.

This place offers the best Americanized Chinese food I have ever had. They make some great Asian food even for Houston standards. I’ve been to numerous restaurants in Houston’s china town and I love this place.
They have some great soups and potstickers.
I’ve had the orange beef which is super crunchy and delicious, cashew chicken which is good, chicken lo mein which is my favorite, and almond chicken. The fried rice, china town stir fry and general tsos are great as well. Every entrée I’ve had has been great with the exception of Mongolian chicken, it was very greasy. I come here all the time and they give you large portions and have great service for pick up and dine in. The egg drop soup is great.
This is a great place for lunch as well, as they offer some of the specialty dishes at lunch for half price.
Definitely try this place if you are wanting Chinese in cs.

Got a chance to try T Jin with some take out today. Kind of scratching my head here wondering about the skewered reviews. To begin with the 2012 «Best of the Brazos» award means absolutely nothing as for the voters to be qualified to pick «The Best» they would have had to have tried all of them first.
While I will admit that I’m not an expert on Chinese food as I have yet to go to China, I have eaten at every Asian establishment in Bryan and College Station with the exception of Jin’s Asian Café on Nagle across the street from A&M. (It’s on my very short list (less than 10)) restaurants I have yet to try in BCS. I have eaten at the top rated Chinese restaurant in Napa Valley California with a group of professors from China. And a ton of Asian places in Asia and across this nation as well. I do know that they don’t eat cheese. Anyway…
I call this Americanized Chinese. I had the beef broccoli and to me it was a rather bland yet filling generic Chinese style food that Americans are familiar with. Absolutely nothing special about it to me. Typical doses of grease. If you were to have me blind taste T Jin, J.J.s Asian Bistro, Manchu Wok (in Villa Maria HEB), Panda Express And Pei Wei I would not be able to tell the difference.
If you’re looking for remarkable, mind blowing Chinese try this;
Dragon One on Freedom Blvd in Bryan. I’d call it fusion as it’s very unique and upscaled with no grease.
Shun De Mom Express inside the BCS Asian Market on Texas avenue. Chinese street food style, probably the most unique in Bryan /​College Station.
I’d mention VY’s but that’s Vietnamese or Lanna but that’s Thai.
My wish would be that the «Best of the BCS» wouldn’t allow votes by people that have not eaten at at least half the same style restaurants in town so the results are not tainted by simple name recognition.

First time back in a long time. Dropped in for a quick lunch. It was quick. Service was very good, but it was late for lunch and I was the only customer there. The spring roll had to be precooked because the server just walked into the kitchen to deliver the order to the cooks, and she came right out with the spring roll. It was not hot, but still warm and crispy. Hot and sour soup was OK, but no meat. I prefer Chef Cao’s. Had the Mongolian beef. Again, It was okay. I think they use some kind of meat tenderizer like J&J’s and it makes the meat’s texture come out like it has been boiled. Kinda spongy.
I got a takeout order of broccoli chicken for my daughter and she said it was good but nothing special. Overall it was just okay, and thus 3 stars.
