" Great family-owned place! The owners are super friendly, and you can tell they care about their customers. I tried the sweet and sour chicken, and it was delicious! The crab puffs were also very tasty. Portions are huge! I love that there are both lunch specials and dinner portions, so you can dine any way you like. I will be back for sure! " (*Curated Review*)

" Since moving to the Valley, I have been searching for authentic Chinese cuisine. Yao is the answer! The sizzling rice soup was out of this world, and the combination fried rice had an impressive variety of protein and vegetables. The staff really knew the menu and gave excellent recommendations. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a true taste of Chinese food. " (*Curated Review*)

" Delicious food, although a little on the salty side for my liking. The chicken chow mein had loads of vegetables and was very filling. I had a good time dining here with friends; the vibe is lively and fun, perfect for gatherings. The service was prompt but not overly friendly—just efficient. Overall, a solid experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a delicious meal at Yao Chinese Restaurant. The hot and sour soup was one of the best I’ve had. Our main course of sweet and sour chicken was cooked beautifully. The prices were reasonable for the quality of food. Service was friendly, but there was a slight wait for food during peak hours. Make a reservation if you can, especially on weekends! " (*Curated Review*)

" My experience at Yao Chinese Restaurant was fine but not outstanding. The food was better than average, but I’ve had better elsewhere. The sweet and sour chicken was delectable, however, the fried rice lacked seasoning. Service was polite but could have been more attentive in checking up on us. Nevertheless, I would still consider returning since it was an enjoyable outing. " (*Curated Review*)

" (*Curated Review*)

" Yao Chinese Restaurant is fantastic! The food was fresh, and the service was quick. I ordered the orange chicken, and it was crispy as promised. I was pleasantly surprised by the quality, especially for the price. It’s a casual place with a good vibe—great for a family meal or a lunch date. I can't wait to come back to explore more on their menu! " (*Curated Review*)
