The best Chinese restaurant in Lancaster. They serve very delicious Sichuan cuisine. I'm very happy because they opened the same restaurant in Harrisburg. I will come again.

This is a great restaurant with very delicious food. The waiter is as kind as my family. If you are looking for traditional Sichuan cuisine, this is a very good choice.

Loved our first visit to Yi Pin last week! Excellent kong pao chicken, shredded pork with garlic sauce, and pork wontons with spicy chili sauce. The staff was VERY kind and let my brother practice his Mandarin. And they didn't judge me for using a fork. :)

My partner and I ordered take out just last night and were very excited, based on the reviews. We were not disappointed! The food here is SO amazing! Truly every single dish was delicious and affordable. We ordered the sesame chicken, pork lo mein, pork wontons in chili oil, fried pork buns, and steamed pork dumplings. Highly recommended! We cannot wait to go back and try more of their menu! :)

Beef and Onion dish was so flavorful and delicious. It was salty and a little sweet. The best version that I've had in the area. The pork belly dish was also great. Lots of umami. I wish I also ordered green beans or a green veggies to go with it, since that would have balanced the fattiness of the pork belly. Soup dumplings were great as always. We came for a quick lunch this first time and will definitely be back.

While visiting town, we wanted a quick dinner and ordered pickup from Yi Pin. They let us eat there and even brought us a complimentary dessert each at the end which was so nice of them. My one critique was that we didn’t love the wonton soup - the broth was on the greasy side and had an unexpected kick.

I am not exaggerating as this is the best Chinese food i have ever had. We had Chicken in Sezuan sauce, scallion pancake, orange chicken and fried rice.

Chicken in Sezuan sauce was out of the world and an unique experience. I would definitely come back.

We came late right b4 closing but they were very accommodating and served us very well. The food was excellent. Very tasty and justright level of spiciness for me.

We went on a holiday weekend and had to wait. I think only two people were staffed on the floor so it was incredibly busy but they worked hard to get food out and clean tables between groups. We don't grade Asian establishments on their service if the food is good though, especially because this is Lancaster and there are few good Asian restaurants outside of a major internalitionalized city, ever lol! And the food was great- as a child of a Sichuan/Chongqing immigrant who is picky about the foods that come from her hometown, I can say that I will be returning with my parents.

We got the string beans, cold beef and tripe, salt and pepper shrimp, and one of their whole pot spicy stir fry on the chefs recommended menu. Wholly recommend eating family style to get a balance of flavor because otherwise each dish is too spicy, or too salty on its own. Rice is a must!

The most authentic Chinese restaurant in this area. Nice decor and atmosphere. Very good and authentic Chinese dishes, prepared and cooked the right way. But be warned that many dishes are kind of spicy.
Special recommendation on the Soup Dumplings (6 pcs)小笼包 (not spicy at all, and also not supposed to be their specialty). Juicy and very tasty, better than other restaurants nearby. Fried Mantou (6 pcs)黄金小馒头 also good but a little pricey.干锅肥肠,葱爆羊,羊肉炉 dishes all very good. Will come again and often.
Update:
Have been back there several times and was never disappointed. The owner Mr. Yang and the servers were all very friendly. Here are several more dishes to recommend: Fried mixed pork liver and loin 腰肝合炒, 毛血旺, 红烧牛肉面,红烧牛腩煲. Still 5 star rating!
