    I was taking my daughter somewhere new for lunch & wanted to try Yen Du because the reviews are fantastic. Upon entry, I was shocked by the beautiful decor. Atmosphere A! We arrived just as they were opening & were quickly seated. This place filled up fast. People coming & going for dine in & take-out. What struck me most was the familiarity the staff/owners had with the guests. They knew each other. When I described us as “Guest”, you are treated like one. We chose a dinner for 2, which was more than we could eat. Food was delicious & service beyond A. Will definitely go back.

    I have been eating here for several years. They offer a lunch menu, a dinner menu and plenty of appetizers. We decided on fried beef, spring rolls and eggs rolls. Everything was delicious. With the fried beef I was given three types of sauces, sweet and sour, soy sauce and another sayce that tasted like a katsu sauce. You order your meal by plates and that is how you are charged. We had the house chicken and the chicken chow mein. Each plate comes with two wontons, rice and soup with tofu and mushrooms. One plate can serve two people. The house chicken is battered and fried and comes in a spicy sauce. It also is served with peas and carrots. The chicken chow mein tastes fresh and there are pieces of chicken throughout. The waiter we had was quick and was checking on us. He made sure our food taste great and if we needed anything. Overall, we only thought the negatice part was the missing napkins. They used to be more "upscale" but with inflation, things must change. The atmosphere is beautuful. Be sure to check out the elobrate celing and the fixtures. They are beautuful. The resturant stats fairly quiet except for conversations. They offer tables and chaurs and also bigger rooms for larger parties.

    This place is incredible. Genuinely think the low ratings are from people lying for some reason. All the vegetables were cooked correctly and not overcooked. The chicken, pork, and shrimp were also all timed perfectly. Staff was very nice, everything was seasoned well. The portions were large. The atmosphere is nice with warm lighting and carved decorations. I recommend this place if you're looking for good Chinese food.

    **UPDATE 7/6/24: After a hot day cleaning out the garage, we wanted a hearty meal, so I suggested Yen Du Chinese restaurant, with cooking style from the Szechuan region. My sister, brother in-law and nephews haven't been here before and I wanted them to try the food because we had a great experience during our first visit (review below). Arrived at an odd hour, about 3:00pm, and there was plenty of available seating. The gentleman who seated us was the same person who took our order. He apologized when taking our order because they were short-handed that day. We didn't mid at all. The guy was working really hard to wait on 4 to 5 different tables doing everything from taking the orders, bussing the tables, and checking up on everyone. He was amazing! He said he's normally one of the cooks, but today he had to work out on the floor. I can't say how much we appreciated his service & help. We ordered the sizzling soup , vegatable chow mein noodles , salt & pepper fish (Our favorite!), Mongolian Beef, Mushroom & Greens, crab Rangoon (I think ), House Chicken, and steamed rice. There was 6 of us, and we had tons of leftovers. I'd highly suggest the sizzling soup, because not only does it taste good, but it also sizzles as the name suggests when the rice goes into the soup. Our favorite is the salt & pepper fish, which is small pieces of white fish that is breaded, fried, and served with garlic & jalapenos. That is by far one of best versions that I've ever tasted. If you haven't tried this place, then I'd suggest you check it out. You will leave satisfied . - End of update - 7/6/24 1st visit below: My normal hole-in-the-wall chinese restaurant located off of N. Yosemite Ave was closed Sunday, so I had to search for a new place. I'm glad I did, because we stumbled upon a gem that we've never tried. The ambience is great for family outings & celebrations. It's a quaint spot that is very nice. The ceiling decor was really nice. The staff greeted us with warmth & energy. The phones were ringing and restaurant was buzzing! Let's get to the good part, the food. A patron suggested the sizzling rice soup, and it was tasty .... had veggies, shrimp , small pieces of pork, and the crispy rice. Portion is good enough for 4-6 people. Salt & pepper fish - my favorite of the entrees. It was hot, crunchy, flavorful. It was garnished with jalapenos, fried garlic, salt & pepper. Try it over rice . House chicken - their version of orange chicken. It was good, but would want to try other entrees next time Chow mein with chicken - good dish. A little on the salter side, but tasty nonetheless. Large portion. Black mushrooms & Chinese greens (like bok choy) - this dish was really good. My 3rd favorite behind the sizzling soup & the . The sauce tasted buttery and the greens were fresh. I'd highly suggest trying this place out. We'll definitely be back! Thank you Yen Du!

    The restaurant is quite big, the lunch is cheap, the service is fast, and the people are nice. The food's ok. Parking area is small. 11/15/23 I ordered for 3 peoples menu which served 6 items. All of them are good. The restaurant is quite full and busy and many order for to-go. There are only 2 servers and 1 cashier, but they're all work very fast.
