I had not been to this restaurant in about 6 years and looked forward to going, because the food had been good in the past. They used to bring you tea, which I dont even like, but it was hot tea and it was a nice gesture. They no longer do that. My date ordered. Then I ordered. I ordered hot braised chicken. The waiter asked, "Boneless and white meat?" I said, "Yes, boneless and white meat (I did not know they even had anything else and I even said again I did not know you had anything else, but I want boneless and white meat)." I was on a date, so did not want to complain, but I thought the chicken was awful. I thought it was not even medium hot, and I like it a little hot. They gave us 1 bowl of rice for both of our dinners, and I ended up paying close to $4 for another bowl of white rice. I thought maybe a couple of pieces of dark meat were mixed in, but when I got to one of the last pieces left, the waiter finally came over to check on us. I showed him the piece and said this is obviously not white meat. It looked strange (not even really like dark meat). He said I did not order white meat. I said, "What?!" He said there was nothing he could do since I ate the food. He said it was General Tsao and that I did not ask for white meat. He even asked if I wanted white meat before I said I did. Every time I walk in any Chinese restaurant I will not even order unless they have hot braised, white meat, boneless chicken. I hope he enjoyed the $.10 tip I left. I dont think I will be back. It was nothing like it used to be over 6 years ago. It was a shame. I think I was served whatever they had in the back to get rid of.

Used to go here often at lunch with the hubby when I worked at the Dept. of Revenue office that use to be in the same building with Radio Shack on S. Brentwood. The food tasted just as good as before, but my only complaint is that they need to clean the tables with a degreaser. They were so bad they were all super sticky and after we moved to two other tables found them to ALL be like that. I know from working in restaurants over the years that you just cant "lightly wipe them off for years". It was so bad I really came close to calling the health department to check it out. Instead I am going to call them and give them a chance to rectify the situation. There is no way we were the only ones to notice!!!!!

I never write reviews, but I am very disappointed in my experience. First off, the online menu does not have the correct prices or sizes. I ordered egg rolls $4 (which says it comes with 4, I only got 2) and shrimp fried rice which says it is 6.95. My order was 17$! Delivery came quickly, which is good. But my shrimp fried rice only had 3 pieces of shrimp and it was chewy and tough. With tip, I paid $20 for 2 egg rolls, and brown rice with 3 pieces of shrimp. Never again.

Probably the worst Chinese food Ive ever had. Im sitting here doubling over in pain the next day, with major gastointestinal distress, and Im known as "The Iron Stomach" because this never happens to me. As I sit here in agony, Im left only with memories of less than stellar tasting beef with the mushiest broccoli Ive ever had. Do yourself a favor and avoid at all costs. I went their for pickup and it looks like they are running a janky daycare in there on the side.

I recently traveled the United States extensively, even the Pacific Coast from San Diego to Vancouver (a mecca of Asian food of all varieties) and it doesnt matter where i went... it turns out noone gets crab rangoon right like Yong China. Forget those 2-point or 3-point hunks of junk youll find elsewhere - the 4-point crab rangoon from Yong China is WHERE ITS AT.

I had an amazing time, this is great little small family business, I have come here for years and I just love it! It is great to bring your family and just have a nice dinner/lunch. They have average prices but high quality food. When we deliver it is always quick and the food is just perfect!

Weve never eaten in the restaurant but we order delivery all the time. The delivery is speedy and the food is delicious! We used to caryout at Steak and Rice in Kirkwood (since they dont deliver) but the food is just as good, if not better, and the prices are more reasonable at Yong China.

Ive been going here since they opened. Ming is a great host and the family is wonderful. The place is always clean and the food is excellent. This is the only chinese restaurant that serves food that I dont need to season somehow!!!

I absolutely love the "crab rangoon", or, more appropriately, the poodle filet. However, the decor could be a bit more Chinese. The dead cat in the corner booth made me slightly uncomfortable.
