Description

An approachable neighborhood Chinese spot earns praise for generous portions, reasonable prices, friendly staff and tidy takeout packaging, making it a reliable quick-lunch or family takeout option. However, diners report hit-or-miss cooking: bland or greasy dishes, chewy tofu, tough beef, thin or missing components (e.g., broccoli, crab filling), and occasional freshness concerns. Best for large portions and convenience—avoid if you expect consistent, restaurant-quality execution.

When I arrived with my family, I was surprised to find just one table available. We ordered BBQ fried rice, egg rolls, Mongolian chicken, Kung Pao chicken, sesame beef, sesame chicken, and a tofu dish. The prices were reasonable and the portions were decent for what we paid. The egg rolls and fried rice were delicious, while the Mongolian chicken was fairly good. Unfortunately, the sesame beef and chicken didn't meet my expectations; they had an unusual color and the beef was tough. My wife thought the tofu dish was just okay. On the plus side, the staff were very friendly, and the restaurant was clean. I might recommend it for a quick lunch special if you're in the area and need something fast, but overall, I wasn’t really impressed.

We usually order from Ye's when we're craving Chinese food because the dishes are typically quite flavorful and delicious. However, our recent experiences have been disappointing. Last week, our order arrived soggy, greasy, and lacking in flavor. The potstickers we got were unlike any I've had before; they had a thick, doughy texture and very little filling. I wish I had taken photos to show how they looked. The chicken and broccoli dish and the wonton soup were completely bland. It was really disappointing, especially after spending $50.

The fried rice was decent, but the Mongolian beef was not great. The texture of the meat was questionable, and the flavor was off—it felt more like beef in a brown gravy rather than a properly seasoned dish. The sesame chicken was really dry, almost stale. Overall, it was a disappointing experience.

Love their food. Have been ordering fron them for over 20 years. The only complaint is they do not give you orange sauce with the egg rolls anymore. That's disappointing.

We wanted to try the restaurant because of the Grubhub rating. The food was terrible. The edamame was bad and I think it was old spoiled. The Sweet Sour was all liquid with a few pieces of pineapple peppers. We ended up throwing everything in the garbage. We will not
