Best chinese spot!!! I’ve tried many spots and always end up coming back to this one. The owners are lovely and welcoming. I always start off with the sizzling rice soup which is my fav & get sweet and sour chicken, shrimp fried rice, shrimp chow mein, & beef and broccoli.

The food is worth the wait. If you are willing to be patient the food is very good. The business is run by an elderly Asian family and they are very friendly. Be kind, be patient, and trust it’s worth the wait. Will definitely come back!

If you want a Chinese home cooked meal made with love, Ching Yen is the place! We've been coming here for over a decade. The owners are wonderful and so sweet. The food is consistent and delicious. Their soup (all of them) is awesome. If you want to support a local family owned business that's been around for almost 40 years, this is the spot. Nothing fancy, but feels like home every time you go.

Authentic Chinese / Korean Chinese food here. Please realize it's a family run business & the family is getting older so service is not as fast but food is the most authentic Chinese in Bako when u go middle of opening hours.

Ching Yen is a hidden gem on the East side. My family has been going since I was a kid, and now my own children enjoy the dishes that Soo and her crew prepare.

The food is delicious. The service is superb, but they really need to remodel badly, especially their restrooms.

This food is phenomenal! I have never had orange chicken that is so fresh and tasty with real oranges in it. The chow mein, the rice all of it very very fresh and very very good. I give it a 10!

We were craving authentic Chinese food last night and came across Ching Yen. You can tell the owner, Sue, takes great pride in her food, and it really shows.

We started with the Sizzle Rice soup and Hot and Sour soup. Both soups were rich and delicious with fresh ingredients. We ordered the small bowls and each was big enough for two people to share one and have extra. We decided to try the Combination Appetizer platter which came with two of each appetizer and two dipping sauces. The Sizzling Beef Iron plate and Chicken Fried Rice had quality fresh ingredients. You could tell the pride that went into each dish.

Sue was a delight and expressed how much she enjoyed her customers. She made it feel like you’re visiting family for a home cooked meal. I’m a soup fanatic too, so I can’t wait to try some of the other soups on the menu. We’ll be back soon!
