AJ Chinese Express

Sunday. Best Chinese food in all of ojai. I had the honey walnut shrimp rice and chowmain. Was so good it will make you want to slap ur MOMA LOL. it's the best to die for highly recommend this place.

Pretty freaking awesome! Food is good and I'm never disappointed. Nice people and a clean environment. Best chinese restaurant in The Valley.

I’ve been in California for 4 years originally from NY and this is the only spot that the BBQ pork fried rice makes me feel like at home. It’s so good.

One of our go to favorites, we always order to go. I love that the food is always consistent😋 the food portions are plentiful for sharing and the staff is always friendly.

Everything is perfect. Just the best restaurant around period. In all aspects. Lovely

The staff is friendly and the plates are reasonably priced for the portions you receive. It tastes really great also.

Their orange chicken is excellent!! We have been customers for years. Every time my MIL comes to visit from out of town, AJs is our usual must do soon as she arrives haha I always say Im going to try a new item but when it comes down to it I cant- have to get my favorite orange chicken, steamed vegetables(always cooked perfectly, never mushy!)My hubby gets beef chow mein & fried rice. Staff is always very nice. Definitely a top pick for Ojai restaurant choices.

I was honestly surprised by how tasty the food is. At first thought $14 was expensive but the serving size is enough for 2 meals. Mongolian chicken, egg rolls, and boba tea were all delicious. Nice people working there too

Great Chinese food, pretty and clean place, nice and patient people. And also they serve boba drinks!!!!!!!

Just had the Mongolian Chicken with chow mein and Thai Milk with boba. 😊 It was AMAZING! 👍

I love this little place...always fresh, hot, delicious, and friendly and polite service. Also always noticeably clean! The owner is great... Gracious and kind.

What a hidden gem! So friggin tasty. Whenever I'm out here I drop in and get singing because it's amazing. Easily the best most crispy orange chicken I've ever had anywhere. I've had Chinese food in new York, Boston, and all over various corners of country. The orange chicken here wins!

Got the Spicy Garlic Pork (p2 I think?), the Sesame chicken, and the garlic stir fried green beans. Was very good, a little pricey since I got it at dinner time but it was two meals for me and my partner!

Food was average. Drinks were very delicious. I had the green apple green tea. It was on point. The restaurant was spotless and the staff was very friendly

Jesse is the manager. He is a warm person. He knows exactly how I like my order, and he usually prepares it himself. Just love this place.

Awesome food, great service, and the chow mein was full of flavor and huge portion. Well worth the price. Even the shrimp Kung Pao was spot on. My new favorite Chinese restaurant. 😍

Great food, cozy place, friendly service, and very reasonable prices. I recommend it!

I love this place so much especially their orange chicken it’s so good

Our favorite lunch place and the Thai Iced tea is the best in all Ventura County.

Really great Chinese food in the Ojai Valley at a reasonable price. I have been there many times and there food is always consistently good.

Great food, great service. A little pricey for what you get as the portions seem to be getting smaller

The staff are nice, and I am addicted to their Thai iced teas and taro smoothie. Food is moderately priced and tasty.

I got teriyaki chicken with fried rice it was okay and cheap food if ur craving chinese. The broccoli was really fresh.

Fast, friendly, and tasty. $8 + $9 = $23 for lunch? Other than that, great!

Good service, friendly and nice staff. Fast and tasty, always clean, affordable prices but chicken is not always cook right or to the perfection small pieces of chicken taste good but the big piece have a different taste 👍👌🍗🍖🥠🥡🍤🍱🍤

This is the only Chinese takeout around and I'm a big fan of the hot sour soup and spicy eggplant with hot garlic sauce. It's the only dish I order. Since the overhaul the place is clean and seems efficiently run.. It's perfect for us locals.

Nice staff. Clean restaurant. Good food. A little pricey for what you get. I go there about once a month. Never been sick

The quality at AJ's Chinese is excellent, many of the Asian boarding students of Ojai come here for a taste of home. I would say it is the best and most authentic Chinese food in all of Ojai. This place also offers delicious Boba green tea drinks. The only problem is the price, this place is pretty expensive so it may break the bank.

The almond chicken is really good, as is the chow mein. The flavor and quality is consistent, service varies.

Tried this place for the first time today. Must say my experience was pretty positive. Needed a quick bite to go. Ordered chicken cow mein dinner, shrimp fried rice and another side of chow mein. Everything was still hot 20 minutes later when I was finally able to eat. My only thing was I felt like it was a couple bucks over priced for what I received but the flavour almost makes up for that. Would definitely recommend this place as ill be returning to try other menu items!

Tried them for first time today and sechuan pork lunch special was delicious. Came with rice and soup. Spent about $12. Was 2 meals for me. Super hot and tasty.

Darn good Chinese food! Of course I would give them five stars, but this is not a white linen tablecloth sort of a place. It's a great family restaurant! I can tell you they are doing a bumping take out business. Be sure your there before 8: 30pm when they close, or you'll be sorely disappointed.

The food is better than great and beyond authentic.

About average. I had the chicken curry. Lots of fresh vegetables while a little more sauce would have made it a lot better.

It was ok food. Cashier was friendly. Prices too high for the quality of food you receive.

The orange chicken had many super hot red peppers, so ask for less peppers. The fried rice had hard pieces and appeared older than a couple of days.

I asked if there was anything it cream cheese in the cream cheese won to. And told no only to get home and there is imitation crab in them.

Good American style Chinese food. Fast friendly clean. Counter service only. Ojai prices. Second time review: both my food (Szechuan pork) and my wife's (mooshu veggies) we're so incredibly salty as to be unedible. My 7 year old likes the teriyaki chicken which I agree is fine/good.

-Veggie tofu soup decent. The little fried wontons were stale. -Plain fried ok. -Steamed rice good. -Egg rolls: would not order again. -Veggie fried dumplings: would not order again -Spicy popcorn chicken: super super super salty! Meat quality, very poor: Would not order again.

Food was ok, Ordered an item and didn’t get exactly what I ordered. Called them and told them and they were rude 0 out of 10 because of the customer service.
