My wife and I recently moved to the area and she wanted to get some quick Chinese take out, even though I worked at a Chinese takeout (distinguished from Chinese sit-ins which can be very pleasant and good) for many years and have zero interest in touching the food at these type of establishments. So we met in the middle and ate Chinese take out.
I ordered with extremely low expectations in mind, and I have to say the food was on par with those low expectations. I felt like the pork in the fried rice tasted old and subpar. Chicken/Beef with mixed vegetables we got, although the meat was tender, it was drowning in sauce (not a good thing in case you were wondering). The egg roll was crispy and flavorful, and probably the only part that was slightly above my low expectations.
I also was very annoyed that they messed up our order. We ordered chicken/beef with mixed vegetables, and they also added and charged us for a mixed vegetables with fried rice to the order, which I later found out from my wife, she didn't actually order. But that was mostly my fault for not double checking and just paying. The 3-star review is more for the food than the service.
I think the one redeeming quality of the experience is that the food is dirt cheap, comparatively to any NH restaurant you go to in the area (including the fast food...
Read moreGood value and the food is good, and usually quick service. Always nice and never rude. They offer tables you can sit at and eat but this is primarily a take-out location. Usually a 15-20 minute wait for orders you call in.
Big fan of the beef lo mein, chicken wings and chicken teriyaki, egg foo young, and all the soups. I like the way lilac blossom does Mongolian beef a lot more, but yang yang does a better lo mein (lilac is pretty dry, i like the amount and flavor of the sauce that yang yang uses). The chicken wings and chicken teriyaki are very good. The fried rice is alright, I think lilac blossom wins there. Yang Yang has way better prices for everything compared to lilac though. They also consistently pack the food containers full.
The food is not super high end here. I think lilac blossom offers more high end food but at a substantially higher cost. Yang Yang is an excellent affordable option for takeout especially if you stick to the items they do well. I have gone here for years and years, as well as other places as well for comparison. Yang Yang is a good place to get a decent quick meal...
Read moreThis restaurant is located in an odd location. Anyway, walked in and it looked more like a take out place than an eat in restaurant. The dining room was closed so sat don’t at the bar ( room for 6). There was no bartender! The guy taking phone orders was the one that made the drinks. Ordered a mai tai( made from scratch, not pre mixed Kudos!). However, bartender/order taker didn’t understand much English and couldn’t make a vodka pineapple(language barrier). We ordered the house fried rice. The riced was under cooked, the chicken was pale strips of something, lacked flavor. It was more like pork fried rice with shrimp and strips of mystery chicken. If you feel adventurous, then give it a...
