Jac Mao

Jac Mao on Hylan Blvd in Staten Island delivered a solid Chinese meal. I ordered the beef with broccoli, honey walnut shrimp, and Peking duck. The beef with broccoli was tender and well-sauced with crisp broccoli that still had some bite. The honey walnut shrimp hit the right balance of sweet and savory with crunchy walnuts and plump shrimp that weren’t overcooked. The Peking duck was the standout: crispy skin, flavorful meat, and properly prepared. Portions were generous and the food came out tasting fresh. If you’re in the mood for reliable Chinese classics on Staten Island, Jac Mao is worth a visit. Highly recommend the three dishes I tried.

J’s Mao (Jac Mao) on Hylan Boulevard has been a family favorite for years. We used to live nearby and ordered takeout regularly, but nothing beats enjoying a freshly prepared meal in the restaurant. What really sets J’s Mao apart for our family is their extensive gluten-free options. As a parent of a daughter with celiac disease, finding safe and delicious Chinese food can be challenging. One of the things she missed most after her diagnosis was being able to enjoy her favorite Chinese dishes. During our recent visit, it was just the two of us, and we were thrilled that everything we ordered could be prepared gluten-free, including the chow fun, chicken with broccoli, and fried rice. One item I can never resist is the basket of fried noodles they serve before the meal. They’re thicker, crispier, and more flavorful than those you’ll find at most Chinese restaurants, and it’s always tempting to ask for another refill. I wish there was a gluten free options for these. The service is consistently friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere is comfortable and welcoming. If you’re looking for great Chinese food, especially if you need gluten-free options, J’s Mao is absolutely worth a

I don’t usually leave reviews, but this place absolutely deserves one. The sushi was some of the freshest I’ve ever had—everything is incredibly high quality and well-made. On top of that, the buy-two-get-one deal is a great bonus. Definitely worth trying if you’re looking for really good sushi.

Food was good. Prices were reasonable. Service was questionable... I went here yesterday with three of my friends and they did not let us eat in peace at all, they kept watching us eat and circling our table giving weird/dirty looks as if they were waiting for us to do something? I did not feel comfortable eating there at all. There were other tables of people and they were not giving them the same treatment. Do with that information what you will. Also they failed to tell us there was a mandatory tip until I asked about it when I read the bill.

Our first time visiting. Nicely decorated big open room. The staff and owner super personable. The food was absolutely fantastic. We got the ribs, general tsao, beef with broccoli and young chow fried rice. I can't wait to go back to try more things!
