" Joy Yee is a staple in my dining experience whenever I'm in Chinatown. I love their wide variety of dishes — something for everyone! The last visit I made with my family was busy, and although we had to wait a bit longer, it was completely worth it. The food came out piping hot, and my favorite was definitely the truffle fries! " (*Curated Review*)

" Visited Joy Yee for a weekend lunch and was impressed. The boba drinks are delightful — I had the mango guava freeze, which was perfectly sweet. I shared a couple of small dishes with my friend, and everything was delicious, especially the fried rice. The place was busy, but we received our food promptly. I would return without a doubt! " (*Curated Review*)

" Every dish we ordered at Joy Yee was bursting with flavor! The pho was rich, and the portion sizes were fantastic. The quick service and vibrant atmosphere added to our experience. I can confidently say this is my go-to place in Chinatown for authentic Vietnamese food. " (*Curated Review*)

" Started with the fruit smoothie, and it was superb! The food we ordered afterward was rather mediocre though. The dim sum was overcooked and not up to my expectations. The ambiance was lively, but service was just above average. I'll focus solely on the drinks next visit. " (*Curated Review*)

" What a fantastic place! The boba tea options are limitless! I had the peach green tea and it was refreshing. The noodles I tried were perfectly cooked with just the right amount of spice. All in all, one of my favorite dining spots in Chinatown. Absolutely love Joy Yee! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was so excited to try Joy Yee, but the experience fell flat. The food took longer than expected to arrive, and when it finally did, it was cold and lacked flavor. The atmosphere was lively, but it couldn’t make up for the disappointing meal. Service was average at best. I doubt I’ll return anytime soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" Joy Yee is an excellent choice for lunch! Their lunch specials are value for money and the portions are surprisingly large! I appreciate that the food is made fresh while you wait. I highly recommend the garlic noodles and their unique bubble tea flavors! " (*Curated Review*)
