“Excellent food,ambience,,service- ask for Thomas. So happy to have new restaurant close by., recommend highly. Huge menu to try something new.“

“Their food is amazing So are their employees Larry helped me so much !! Tonight was my first time“

“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 egg rolls in greater Birmingham area. Reminiscent of Joy Youngs.

March 2026 update. They have priced their food so high now, it is more like an 5-star restaurant instead of a dive. Don't think I will be making a 45 minute drive for take out in the future. I can drive 10 minutes and get same amount of food for under $10.“

“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“

“One of the best places in Birmingham , for atmosphere and food !! Amazing place , makes you feel as if you've traveled abroad ❤️??“

“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.“

“I got two shrimp and broccoli with fried rice, a quart of hot and sour soup, and an egg roll. It was good as always (i been here multiple times.) One item i tried a couple months and i don't recommend is the honey chicken. The chicken that's used is low quality and the sauce is meh. It doesn't really compare to Lucky Panda Asian Kitchen's Honey chicken though.“

“I can’t say enough good things about Happy China in Southlake! They were fast, punctual, and incredibly helpful with a large corporate order. The extra help carrying everything to my car truly made a difference. Service like this is rare—huge thank you to the team for making it such a smooth experience!“

“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.“

“Food was good. Family enjoyed. They even had pizza, fries, chicken wings, and fish for the kids. If there taste buds aren't ready for the great variety of foods on the buffet. The buffet, also includes the Hibachi grill-to -order, food selection if you choose.“

“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.“

“I just tried China Bistro tonight. The food was very good and fresh. I definitely will be going back soon. I love that it’s right down the hill from my house!“

“The food was delicious and fresh as well as the inside was clean and neat,that's what I like to see. Everyone was extremely nice and I understand her very well. I tend to prolong when I am deciding on food, but she patiently waited on me. I highly recommend and we will definitely come back.“

“Excellent Chinese Food. Fresh and seasoned appropriately. I ordered a half roasted duck which was so tender and plated beautifully. I also tried the sweet pea leaves. Very tender greens seasoned with light garlic sauce. Love loved the greens. I also ordered the Kung Pao Chicken. Very tasty lightly spiced with, peanuts, mushrooms and zucchini in a light sauce. All Came with 2 orders of steamed rice and was packaged to go, as I was traveling back to MS. I enjoyed a chicken egg roll that was fresh and filled with lots of chicken in a crispy roll and was hot. Could have ate a second one. Everything was remarkably delicious and the young lady who took my order was patient and explained the different dishes. This was my second time to order from Mr. Chen’s. I dined in the first time. The Restaurant is tastefully decorated and is uniquely located inside the Homewood Chinese Grocery Store. Next time I go to Birmingham I want to purchase some of the produce and other items that appeared fresh and healthy from the store, which had an abundance and variety of items not found in your typical grocery store. Well worth making a stop.“

“Cannot say enough about the great service and delicious food. They have gone above and beyond in their service on more than one occasion. And the food is the best Chinese around. We've gotten buffet, dine in and take out and have always had delicious food.“

“I have eaten carry out sesame chicken from this restaurant over the last 5 years and there has never been a taste difference in all those years....

Love the egg drop soup so much I learned to make the soup at homs with extra ingredients. ...
.
Altho you have to specify medium.or large otherwise they automatically presume you want large .“

“excellent food and service. highly recommend! food is fresh and well prepared and they offer a nice variety of dishes.“

“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.

Kid-friendliness: Very kid friendly from what I could see“

“Just picked up and the food is very good not overly sauced and fresh. Hot and sour souo good too. We had the beef and broccoli and triple delight. Would definitely recommend“

“Good food and large portions“

“Ordered on door dash. I can’t say strongly enough how good the food was. Family of four very happy- best Chinese food we’ve had except for maybe Surin and it really beat out just about anywhere else we’ve had in recent memory. Was pleasantly surprised.“

“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“

“why y'all so me like this for my13 dollars fish over batter dry chicken fry hard dryy come on now eat there every day and probably tomorrow but damn and hire a new Chinese cook my husband comes every day for soup and the Chinese cook rarely be there so out of seven days of coming there we got soup maybe three times so when is he planning on coming to work or what days do you work so we'll know and stop wasting gas“

“I couldn’t wait to get home to give this place one star. I was under the impression by some of the pics that the fried rice came with some type of veggie like peas and carrots . Just onion and the greens onions they had to add after the fact . However, my attitude changed once I tasted the food ! I was surprised at how good it taste . Veggies were cooked very well and everything overall had a great taste . I don’t even eat the brown sauce that came with it but as I type I’m tearing it up! Lol Not my first choice for Chinese just due to personal preference (I like my veggies in my friend rice!) . Also I’m use to a larger portion size for what I paid (a little over $16 ) but this was definitely a hit ! The front lady was every patient cause I knew she could tell I was disappointed. I did not try to hide . I will be back to try some other items now that I l now what to expect ! By the way I got the house friend rice and steam veggie plate.“
