Customer Favorites

Yang Chow fried rice and egg tofu dishes are frequently praised, as well as the coconut buns. The vegetable dishes and fried fish also received positive comments.

Atmosphere & Service

The service is generally considered fast and efficient, with a great host. However, the atmosphere may be lacking due to an old, worn-out carpet and tight seating in a less than stellar neighborhood.

Areas for Improvement

One review mentioned an issue with missing clams in a to-go order and slow wait times. Some dishes, like the eggplant (lacking salt) and juicy pork dumplings, received negative feedback, suggesting inconsistencies in food quality.
