" In search of authentic Chinese cuisine, I stumbled upon Ying Li and it did not disappoint! The flavors were vibrant and rich, showing genuine Chinese cooking techniques. The staff were incredibly helpful in navigating the menu. I enjoyed the Mongolian beef which was savory and comforting. The portions were quite filling, more than enough for one meal. There's also a cozy neighborhood feel to the restaurant that adds to the charm! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had some high expectations walking into Ying Li, but unfortunately, it didn't live up to those. The frustration started with the long wait for my order, and the food I received was just okay—nothing special. I feel like they need to work on their kitchen efficiency for busier times. I may consider returning, but it wouldn't be my first choice. " (*Curated Review*)

" Ying Li has maintained its reputation for great service and delicious food over the past few years. The Taiwanese beef noodle soup is my favorite dish here; the flavors are always spot on and the portion is quite sufficient. It can get busy, especially on weekends, but the wait is worth it! I appreciate the attention to customer feedback. " (*Curated Review*)

" Ying Li offers some of the most authentic Chinese food I've experienced outside of China! The flavors are vibrant and their preparation style shows genuine culinary expertise. I tried their sweet and sour pork and was blown away by how fresh and flavorful it was! Staff are also bilingual which made communication easier. I can’t recommend this place highly enough.
