" For someone who has traveled extensively in China, I was thrilled to find a restaurant that serves authentic Chinese food right around the corner from me. The flavors were spot on, especially in their Szechuan dishes, which packed a punch! The only downside was the prices seemed a little high for takeout, but the quality makes it worthwhile. I will definitely be back for more of the spicy chicken. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had very high expectations for Yen Yen after hearing so many good things, and it mostly lived up to them. The Mongolian beef was tender, and the flavor was on point. However, I did experience some issues with the service, as our waiter seemed overwhelmed. Still, the ambiance was nice, and the decor felt traditional. I would visit again, hoping for better service next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Yen Yen for dinner with friends last week, and we were thoroughly impressed by the authentic flavors of the dishes. The Kung Pao chicken had the perfect balance of spice and sweetness, and the egg rolls were crispy and packed with flavor. The staff was very attentive and ensured we had everything we needed throughout the meal. I will definitely be returning! " (*Curated Review*)

" Fantastic experience overall! The atmosphere is welcoming and clean, and the food was fantastic. I tried the chicken and broccoli with fried rice, and I was genuinely surprised by the freshness of the vegetables. If you appreciate a good Chinese meal, this place should be on your radar! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a disappointing experience at Yen Yen. The food was decent but overpriced. I expected more richness in flavor from their dishes. I think it should have been cleaner as well. The service was average, and it simply didn’t feel welcoming enough for me to return. " (*Curated Review*)

" I’m rather fond of this restaurant, it has become a staple in my routine. They serve wonderful stir-fry and their fried rice is always on point. The prices are reasonable considering the quality. What I love most is how quick the service is, making it easy to grab a bite during lunch hour. " (*Curated Review*)

" I have always been a fan of Chinese food, but Yen Yen took it to a whole new level! Their variety of unique dishes is a breath of fresh air. I tried the seafood combination and it was superb! The spices were suited to my taste and not overwhelming. I’m just a little disappointed that I couldn't try their dessert since I was too full, but I will definitely be back to try more! " (*Curated Review*)
