" I wasn’t overly impressed with my experience here. The food was decent, but I felt the flavors were dulled down to cater to American tastes. The decor is beautiful, and the service was friendly, but I was hoping for a more authentic culinary experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" The interior of Yen Ching is stunning, a true experience for the senses. I loved the authentic flavors of their dishes, especially the Mapo Tofu and Chow Mein. The service was a bit too slow for my liking during my visit, but I still enjoyed every bite of my meal. I would come back for sure! " (*Curated Review*)

" After hearing rave reviews, I went in excited to try the Mapo Tofu, which was recommended by a friend. I found it quite authentic, and the spice level was perfect for me. Service was prompt, and the ambiance is serene, making for a pleasant evening. Happy to have found this gem! " (*Curated Review*)

" My experience at Yen Ching was a mixed bag. The vegetarian options are limited, and I found the minimal spice level in my dish surprising. However, it was nice and cozy inside, making it a pleasant place to enjoy a meal. The service was also quite accommodating. " (*Curated Review*)

" Good spot for Americanized Chinese food. The orange chicken was crispy and the sweet and sour sauce complemented it well. However, I wish the fried rice had more flavor. The service was friendly but a bit slow during peak hours. Still, I would return for the overall good atmosphere and quality of food. " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently moved to Tacoma and was excited to try Yen Ching based on the reviews. I ordered the shrimp fried rice and it was okay, but I found it lacked a bit of seasoning. The atmosphere is nice and open, making it a pleasant dining experience. I think I’ll try something different next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" Decent place for a casual night out. The food is good, and they have a solid menu. I enjoyed the cashew chicken, although I felt it could have used more veggies. The atmosphere is calm and inviting. Good for groups but don’t expect anything too fancy. " (*Curated Review*)
