Great place! We come here often.The fresh ingredients were perfectly balanced, creating a satisfying and flavorful meal. I appreciated how everything tasted house-made, not processed like at many quick-service spots. The portion size was generous while still feeling wholesome and nourishing

The food is great at Janbo but I’d really like to talk about the SERVICE! I came in with my family a few nights ago. We were a large party and had 2 kids under 2 with us. They were SO ACCOMIDATING! The restaurant was very clean, which was great for our little explorers. Our server brought us suckers and yogurt for the kids, and was so patient and understanding of our chaos. We WILL be back!!

Janbo Express is what affordable Chinese takeout dreams are made of. Located in the Hidden Valley Shopping Center strip mall, Janbo offers a standard menu of American-Chinese fare. The combination plates (lunch or dinner) are the winners. The sweet & sour chicken with the sesame chicken is fantastic! All the sauces are good, but can be overly sweet. That becomes noticeable before you finish the entree. I really like the fried rice. It's surprisingly good. The service is always friendly. It's family-owned, which adds to the overall appeal. It's a small dining room, but there has always been an open table. Doing takeout is an easy process, and the food quality holds up during transit.
