“Absolutely the best food I’ve had Great quality, staff friendly and beautiful decor. The owner says the restaurant has been there 49 years and he says they have many regulars that come there to eat. We just accidentally ended up here by googling .. this is our new favorite place when in town.“

“Best Chinese food place in Birmingham hands down. Their fried rice actually has a lot of vegetables and they have bacon fried rice. 🥹 It's great spicy. They also have hand rolled egg rolls not the generic ones. The service was great and I had my food in fifteen minutes.“

“Everything here is amazing. I'm a child so I'm picky sometimes but I tried 6 new foods today and the results were awesome. The workers are so friendly and have a board of photos of customers who came to their last building, my family and I are on it because my family has been going even before I was born. It's just that good. We always get the buffet and the food is always fresh. YUMMYYYYY“

“Just moved here, & I'm so thankful I found this hidden gem! I looked up over 20 places, & I didn't see what I wanted on the menu I'm so thankful I called in and asked if they have Tofu & they did! I made my own Tofu with broccoli, & fried rice with only egg/onion. They have the best prices affordable prices in Hoover! This will be my only to go spot for Chinese food. It's well worth the drive in a very beautiful neighborhood to the plaza. One of my favorite things is the crispy noodles 🤤 they make there's fresh next time I'm getting 10 bags because one wasn't enough. I will be getting food here weekly very generous with the portions almost enough for 3 meals. I highly recommend everyone try this spot, & if you don't see something on there menu just call & ask. Hidden gem thank you so much for the wonderful food.“

“Yan Express in Birmingham is a great choice for anyone craving fresh and flavorful Asian food. The menu offers a nice variety of dishes, and everything we tried was well-prepared and satisfying. The flavors were balanced, and the ingredients tasted fresh, which made the meal even more enjoyable.
The service was quick and efficient, with friendly staff who were attentive without being intrusive. Whether you’re dining in or ordering to-go, the team makes sure everything runs smoothly. The restaurant itself is clean and well-maintained, providing a pleasant atmosphere for a casual meal.
One of the standout features of Yan Express is its convenience. It’s a great spot for a quick lunch or dinner without sacrificing quality. The portions are reasonable for the price, though slightly larger servings would make it even better value.
Overall, Yan Express is a reliable spot for tasty Asian cuisine, and we’ll definitely be back. It’s a four-star experience that’s just a few small tweaks away from being perfect. If you’re looking for a clean, convenient, and delicious place to enjoy a meal, Yan Express is worth a visit.“

“The food taste great. But hot and sour soup seafood for two had two shrimp. That’s it for the seafood hot and sour soup, dinner menu. The dumplings are delicious but the most tiny container of sauce, for eight dumplings! Feeling a little cranky. Never a question of flavor, it’s the best.“

“Don’t focus on the 2 stars for atmosphere, unless you’d rather pay for ambience than for good food. The thing that first hooked me on Yoe Express was their coconut soup. Even on that visit I noticed the good price for their lunch specials (which appear to be available at other times as well). So on my next visit I decided to try the black pepper chicken. It was really good, AND the portions of the chicken and the fried rice were large enough that I ate half and took the rest home for dinner. I’ll be back again and again to try the other dishes. Back to the prices - with meal prices going up and up at other restaurants I go to, it’s nice to see Yoe not following suit. You can still get a generous meal of good food for a reasonable price. If you live in Homewood, you owe it to yourself, and to the good folks at Yoe Express, to support this establishment. If you don’t live in Homewood, get in the car and drive there to check it out; it won’t be your last time.“

“Incredible food at great prices! We’ve picked up from Happy China twice. Our order was ready within 20 minutes each time, and the young lady was conversant in English and friendly. The lo mein noodles are thick like they should be. Egg drop soup was yellow and flavorful. Sauces on beef & broccoli and sweet & sour were perfectly savory and tangy. Meat was tender, broccoli was crunchy cooked. Egg roll was delicious. Beats all other Chinese places we’ve had from Valleydale to the Summit.“

“I judge my Chinese restaurants by their crab Rangoon, and Mr Chen’s has the best I’ve ever had by far. Their eggplant with garlic sauce was also great and the chicken with broccoli was scrumptious. The service was superb in the atmosphere was very appealing.“

“The food was amazing and did a to go order when I arrived everything was ready. They’ve done redecorating to make the restaurant more diner friendly and appealing. I recommend this restaurant for anyone who wants good food on the go or dine in.

“Giving 4 stars bc of the huge portions! Sometimes I get some rlly dry stringy bits in the sesame chicken (still get it all the time tho). And I’m also convinced that the chicken teriyaki is made out of chopped up grocery store rotisserie chicken (wouldn’t get this again personally). The spicy chicken and the chicken n broccoli are solid!“

“If you’re looking for bare bones. Great Chinese food this is the spot. I have the teriyaki chicken skewers on top of pork fried rice. Wonderful. I eat at restaurants all around the country. Always looking for great Chinese spots. This is definitely on the list.
Parking: You could park an army here“

“We love our local Chinese takeout haunt. It’s not the fanciest Chinese around but they are super fast with your order and the portions are generous. Can’t beat it when we don’t feel like cooking and we can pick it up down the road in 10 minutes. The food is an excellent value for what you get. My husband and I particularly love the eggplant. I love their cheese wontons. Hot and sour soup is amazing. Their combos are great because you get rice and an eggroll or soup. The sauces are pretty generic and some dishes have been a little meh, and their fried rice isn’t really fried rice (more like yellow rice lacking any veggies or egg bits) but for the price you can’t beat it. If you want something spicy, make sure you ask because just because you see something is spicy on the menu doesn’t mean it will be. I ordered Hunan chicken and it looked nothing like Hunan, no chilies. The eggplant which wasn’t supposed to be spicy was spicier than my chicken. Pretty sure they just make up their own version of sauces for some dishes. I do like that they serve broccoli, carrot, onion etc with almost every stir fry. Next time I will ask for chilis if I want it spicy.“

“I don’t know why I’m taking the time to write a review for Panda Express right now, but wow. We just left the Hoover store and the customer service was so refreshing! Fast food places lately just have rude workers, but these people were awesome. Greeted us kindly, offered us samples, and were just kind. It was also really clean in there.
Anyway, thank you guys for making me smile today!“

“Very quick and easy to grab some fried rice to go. One "small" order filled a styrofoam takeout tray, made two servings easily.
Dietary restrictions: Eating gluten-free at a Chinese restaurant means needing to avoid anything with teriyaki or soy sauce, but that still leaves you with some tasty options!“

“The best, absolute chicken wings I have had from any where. This place is outrageously good. The decor is poor, the staff is professional, and the kitchen looks clean as hell. Can not find a better place, I'm serious when I say the best chicken wings. They are not coated in sauce they are just amazing wings.“

“Wonderful staff! Very friendly and patient. The Egg roll was good, but it doesn't have any meat, which is fine, just a headsup! But it's honestly pretty tasty by itself. Egg drop soup is worth it, but the crackers were very stale. The real star is the entree here. I got shrimp with mixed vegetables, and it's 8.99 before tax for an egg roll and what you see in the picture, aka a LOT. The fried rice can stand on its own and WOW on the flavoe of the mixed veggies and shrimp!!“

“Ordered food delivery from here and the food was fantastic! It was still hot when I received it. My mom and I split a dinner and still had so much food left over. Miso was delicious and ginger dressing tastes like it’s supposed to. Would highly recommend!“
