Not from this area of town, trying out 1st time and ordered 2 items with both made wrong. Felt like they just pushed the sell and not listened to my order. Food tasted fine just made not to my order even with repeated words, face to face, and references to their own posters on the front windows. It's a very open kitchen, so you and clothes will smell like foods coming out of there.

Glad to find an authentic Szechuan/Chinese restaurant in the neighborhood. It's not a fancy restaurant but the food is delicious. We ordered fish filet with golden soup, mapo tofu with pork intestine, sizzling squid, and sesame balls. All are good except the sizzling squid was not sizzling in hot plate and the squid looks very different from the photo on the menu. The owner told us that the menu was misprinted with picture of squid legs (they serve the body part). Maybe they should cross out that picture so there won't be disappointment due to wrong expectation. Other than that, the restroom is clean but needs some update. All in all, we enjoyed the food and will definitely come back again.

Insanely high quality Sichuan style food. The Mapo tofu is a must try and if you aren't squeamish about organs get it with pork intestines.

This was truly the best Chinese food I’ve had in a while — it’s lighter and tastes more authentic than most Chinese restaurants in the area. The service was great too. This is for sure my new go-to spot.

Best chinese food I've ever had. Me and my family got the chow mein, walnut shrimp, crunchy shrimp balls, mongolian beef, and fried rice. We waited at most like 10 minutes to get our food. Service was awesome. Everything was amazing and delicious. Thank you Yummy Kitchen!!!😋😋😋

Food is okay, nothing special. Service is not great. It's like a lunch hall but without the speed. Food was delivered after a long delay and when the staff cleared the table they smeared food all over the table. Would not visit again.

My husband & I enjoyed a wonderful dinner there tonight. We used to go to another Chinese restaurant that closed, this one Yummy Kitchen is our go to now, the food was great, generous portions, healthy, not greasy, the garlic sauce for dipping was amazing. If I could give more than five stars I definitely would, the service was outstanding, the owner made you feel very welcomed, a great family owned restaurant. Definitely will be back.

Tried this spot for the first time and was so impressed! Every dish was fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care. You can see the kitchen from the dining area, and not only is it spotless, but you can also tell how much pride they take in preparing the food. I can’t stop thinking about their cucumber salad — honestly better than Din Tai Fung’s in my opinion. This is definitely going to be our new go-to place for Chinese food since it’s so close to home!

Delicious place, easy to walk in and never too busy so it's great for big groups. We ordered the szechuan fish fillet with spicy broth, salt and pepper fish fillet (the kids LOVE this, adults too), crispy chicken, fried shrimp, chicken chow mein, and all of it was wonderful. We've done take out as well, but nothing like getting these dishes fresh and hot directly to your table. Great to have such an authentic place in this neighborhood.
