Pretty!

Yacky Shack is fantastic. What a gem. We had the bulgogi tacos: served with warm tortillas, a bowl of seasoned steak strips, kimchi, cilantro and a little flavorful dumpling on the side....ahhhhhhhh. Delish. Assemble the tacos yourself, and add any of the awesome sauces: Yacky sauce, hot honey mustard or a sweet-spicy creamy aioli. Tasty and tender. The beef was fantastic and plentiful. The egg roll was crispy and light, and filled with flavor. The "Yackys" are dumplings of various fillings, chicken, beef and pork. Fried or steamed and with the various sauces, these were lovely, tasty and perfect. I highly recommend the pork, and fried if you want to indulge. Perfect. High praise also for their fried rice. Nice, tender chunks of chicken, and ordered "medium" spice was a perfect bite. Nothing was greasy despite being fried, and the ingredients were of excellent quality. Nice tea selection and self serve drinks and extra sauces (plus containers available for taking home leftovers). There were a lot of lunch patrons present, and the food was coming out quickly. The Chinese dishes looked really good as well, so that leaves me something to get back for. And preferably sooner than later. Service was excellent, friendly and helpful as well as prompt. The place appears brand new and impeccably clean. Simple but clean and bright. This place is a total win. Completely worth the short drive to Muscatine from the QC. I'll be back as this is a new local favorite.

Good food, both their Chinese and Korean options are good. I would suggest the kimchi fried rice if you stop in.

Fresh and hot. The Yacky's are well worth the visit. Suggest you poke around the menu for a bunch of visits. It's all great.

Clueless staff, unwelcoming decor, and overall cringeworthy atmosphere. Food tasted pretty gross and it felt microwaved. Very unsatisfactory

Whew! I finally made it into this place…read more Ok 4th July 2025 11:30 am prime time Pay as you enter. Holiday price just under 15 bucks. Smells good as you enter! Small buffet not what I was expecting Ok on to the food First small plate samples: White Rice and lomein noodles And sample a bit of everything Plastic plates and plastic silverware Big butterfly jumbo shrimp silver dollar size! No shrimp sauce Real good as is! The chicken pot stickers were spot on perfect! Rice was spot on jasmine rice awesome flavor! Lo mein wow outstanding! I could have made a meal out of those two things! Chicken broccoli check! And good Steak and onions with green peppers check but I only did the steak and onions as green peppers are not an out of town road food for me Really good Some cashew chicken I did not see any nuts but it was a little warm on the spice Egg drop soup well mine is better lol But a dash of soy sauce to flavor it And was ok. Second trip more of the same. Hot day so just the small sampling Drinks are serve yourself and included in the 15 dollar price Yea I would stop again if I was in the area But not a destination place for me

Listen, this place has been with MP for a few generations now. In all honesty this place still hits…read morehome for me and I love their buffet food. The Ambience is still there though I remember they used to play music there back in the 2010+ but either way the place is a nostalgia to visit. Their service is nice and welcoming when you come in as they would keep up refilling the food trays in the warmer with fresh ones. They know what their customers like and will be on it to make sure you are pleased! Now you all are probably wondering if the food is nice, that is up to you guys to find out but I personally love their Lo Mein (or Cho Mein I forgot the difference) and their Chicken Skewers!
