Uncle Yu Restaurant — Restaurant in Union City

A place you should try for sure!

First of all. I'm not a big fan of Chinese food. But today I had just an amazing experience. Also you need to understand that it is not a franchise/fast food place. It is a family owned restaurant. Pros:

The amount of food is way more than I expected!( Huge portions of meat and side) It is just my opinion but it seems like I find a perfect balance of spices! Price is pretty good. Almost every combination dish between $12-22. They serve lamb! Wait time was about 15 min. We ordered some crab pockets.... Tastes as a dessert, unusual but good! Nice and polite people working there. -118 positions on menu without appetizers.

Cons:

Seems like right now they are serving only to-go. No opinion for dine-in.

When I try some new places I always take something familiar. Same was today. We tried Mongolian Beef (In my opinion one of the best dishes in the whole Chinese kitchen) and Kung-pao Chicken. It tastes so good! We will definitely visit you guys again....

Delicious! Just ordered and, while I’m still eating it, their hot and sour soup is great!!! I even called them one time to give complements to the chef about how yummy they make it. All of the food is made perfectly and I can’t be happier. If I had to say anything negative at all it’s just that I wish the Door Dash app for them would give options about customizing the dishes... like if I could make the soup even better I would ask for more meat(even though the amount they give is normal and fine) and I would also ask, as an option, to be able to make it even spicier(but without adding more seeds)... the seeds are my only peeve, but I understand, they have to be added, just saying you can spice it up super easy with just a little super-hot hot sauce like Dave’s Insanity Sauce(which is what I mix with apple cider vinegar(2 parts vinegar 1 part hot sauce))... makes it even better! Love...

i can’t lie, the food is so delicious but every time i eat it i get violently ill. i want to love this place so much because the portions are massive and it tastes yummy, but it’s not so good tasting it again when it comes back up. i’ve gotten food from here maybe 4 times and only once did i not get sick after eating it. i’ve gotten the honey walnut chicken every time. tastes delicious, just be forewarned that it might leave you hunched over on the bathroom floor...
