Chinees Specialiteiten Restaurant Yu Woah — Restaurant in Amstelveen

Disappointing and boring standard Dutch Chinese restaurant. The chef won a prize as world champion in Chinese cooking, but I am sure none of the dishes in the restaurant were part of his winning menu. The food has somewhere an origin in the Cantonese kitchen. It is not better than most other Chinese restaurants in the Netherlands. Both the food and the way it is presented on the table is Dutch style. For example giving chopsticks and non sticky rice on a flat plate... The only original Chinese is the bad service.

Her friendly and welcoming approach with a smile made a great impression on me.

The outdoor terrace is also a lovely place to sit and relax, with a calming view of the nearby river and nature behind – perfect for relaxing at the end of the day.

Highly recommend for the peaceful and friendly atmosphere to relax and have a dinner or...

The place is nice. The service was not very good: one of us was missing the cutlery and we really had to ask for it because the food was almost arriving; they brought the appetizers before bringing the plates for it (a couple of things likes this, and the place was not very busy). I ate the roasted duck, it comes with 2 souces (I didn't like any of them) and rice/noodles. The duck flavour was very Simple, it seems to miss something, and the noodles were dry. Another friend ate tipan duck, and it was better, my friend liked it. Another friend got "fake" duck and...
