I hadn't been to this location of YC's in about 15 years, but I stopped in today for lunch with my kiddo and Papa.
Kids are charged 55 cents x their age for a kid-sized bowl. Adults are charged $9.50 for a small bowl or $10.50 for a large bowl. We opted for large bowls to ensure we had leftovers. The price of the meal includes soft drinks. They normally charge 50 cents per takeout container, but they waived the fee since we hadn't been there in such a long time. They also charge you $1 for soft serve, which my daughter insisted on having after her meal.
The hostess was extremely helpful in getting us set up. She gave us some wax paper to push down the ingredients and encouraged us to pack our bowls as much as possible. Then she came back and even made our sauces for us. We must have looked helpless, but it was fine with me. I appreciated the help! Then she came by to ask if my food was spicy enough, since I had indicated I liked food spicy. It wasn't (but I was resolved to accept it), so she brought me some hot chili pepper sauce in a cup; that did the trick.
The food was pretty good. Best of all, it was a great price.
I like this location of YC's slightly better than the Elliott location. I think the personal service made such a big difference.
I will be back soon!
