  • Once again, we find ourselves duped by the high reviews on Yelp on yet another Asian restaurant. We were on our way to Yu's Chinese Express but made a detour since a friend had mentioned this place, not to mention it had four stars on Yelp. We go in, get seated, and after reading through the menu we are excited. Lots of traditional Chinese dishes, some of which we haven't had in a long time, so our hopes were high. First thing we ordered was the hot and sour soup. A steal at $3.50 for a small portion, which was enough to feed 3-4. Unfortunately, it was neither hot (spicy) nor sour. It wasn't bad, but it definitely didn't live up to its name. Besides the soup, we ordered the House Special Lo Mein, Sizzling Hot Plate Beef, Szechuan Green Beans, and Yui Shan Eggplant. We were expecting a feast, but was severely disappointed. The Sizzling Hot Plate Beef arrived first. Interestingly enough, the beef was on a regular plate (not sizzling), which the waitress then dumped on to a hot plate (sizzled maybe just a bit). Then, she put a spoonful of what looked like rice wine over the dish, then attempted to set it on fire. That was a big FAIL, and then she tried to do it again, without success. We basically ended up with a non sizzling plate of beef that was drenched with rice wine. The Szechuan Green Beans were next, but it had a sweet taste to it. This was definitely another first...normally they are supposed to be salty and a bit spicy. The Yui Shan Eggplant was alright, which was probably the best part of the meal just above the white rice. The kicker of course, was the House Special Lo Mein. When we ordered it the waitress made sure that we wanted crunchy noodles (cake noodle, or so we thought) and not soft noodles. We said yes, we want crunchy noodles. What we got was a plate of vegetables and meat with a side of fried won ton strips. Seriously? Normally I would've taken a few pictures, but I think I was in so much shock it didn't register in my head. While the service wasn't bad (drinks refilled consistently) the food was blasphemous. Never again.
