If you're coming here thinking you'll get what their name suggests you'll get, you will not be disappointed. Calming, moody lighting. Huge menu with tons of options to come back for. Surprisingly amazing tea. Quick and attentive service.

Definitely a place I'd go back to.

This is honestly 1 of the best Asian restaurants I've ever been to in USA. I've traveled extensively for work through 45 US States and have enjoyed every meal at this restaurant. The owner and staff are also always amazing, very friendly and always remember me with a smile and great service! Highly recommend you try this place.

I recently tried Yummy Spicy and overall, it was just an okay experience.

The dishes definitely lived up to the restaurant’s name—lots of chili peppers and bold flavors. The dry-fried chicken with chili peppers looked amazing and had a nice crunch, but it was overwhelmingly spicy, almost to the point of masking the actual taste of the chicken. The stir-fried cabbage in the hot pot was simple and decent, though nothing special. The clams in chili oil were flavorful, but the sauce leaned a bit too salty and oily for my liking.

Service was average, not particularly attentive, and the food presentation was rustic rather than refined. Portion sizes were generous, so it’s good for sharing with a group.

If you really love spicy food and don’t mind extra oil, you’ll probably enjoy this place more 🤷🏻‍♀️

Had lunch there, we are sure that the only thing ate on that day. I had to take my husband to ER because he had a really bad food poisoning, with a fever over 102 degree. Won’t go there anymore.

Absolutely blown away by Yummy Spicy! We ordered 11 dishes, and every single one was packed with flavor and authenticity. As someone dining with a group of Chinese friends—all from different regions of mainland China—they all agreed: this is the real deal. The taste brought back memories of home for many of us.

From the bold spices to the perfectly balanced textures, every dish felt thoughtfully prepared and truly authentic. It’s rare to find Chinese food this genuine and delicious outside of China. Highly recommend for anyone craving real Chinese cuisine—we’ll definitely be back!
