Yen Ching

This is my favorite chinse restaurant. The food is great, and the servers are very attentive. It seems a bit pricey, but the flavors are worth it. I always have the Seafood Sizzling Bowl. The rice is prepared in toasted, crisp waffer like chunks that compliments the shrimp, pee pods, and slivers of beef. It is in a busy location across from the Galleria Shopping Mall. There is off street parking available just south of the restaurant. If you exit behind the buildings, there is a stoplight for an easy left turn on Brentwood Avenue.

Yen Ching was one of the first places I tried after moving to the city, and they have some of the best Chinese food. The portions are huge, and everything tasted much better than your typical takeout. The service was also great, and when we couldn’t finish our food, our server packaged everything for us into little to-go boxes. They’re right across from the mall, and I would highly recommend stopping by instead of trying to wait in line at a food court. It’s well worth the walk across the street.

Legitimately good Chinese cuisine. Yen Ching has been a neighborhood staple of what Chinese SHOULD taste like. The interior itself is somewhat dated but nowhere close to falling apart. Parking is not optimal, but a small price to pay for great eats. The prices are on the moderate side, I wouldn't put the price points at expensive, but this isn't the cheapest place to feed a family of 5. Overall, the service and food are excellent. You will not be disappointed with your order.
