    pork fried rice
    David F.

    First time trying Yan after seeing a few recommendations on FB. I'm usually weary of places that "cross the streams" and serve Chinese, Japanese, and Thai on the same menu. That usually means none of the three are their focus. Positives: Owners are very nice. The mini pork buns are amazing. Would go back just for them. Wonton soup is good, too. Egg roll = eh. The thai basil chicken wasn't bad but not a lot for the $. See below. Negatives: I know it's a "Lunch special", but when you include the rice in the same container, i.e, put it under the food -as they do w/ the Shrimp w/ Lobster sauce; Basil chicken, etc., the sauce is entirely soaked up by the rice, leaving the dish void of nearly all its sauce. Not to mention, the container was 90% rice, with just a small bit of the actual dish on top (pic). Very stingy. Additionally, I know shrimp and lobster sauce is a tough one to get right, as most places make it quite watery and flavorless. This was okay, and the shrimp were nice size, but I've never seen a place use artificial crab/seafood pieces in a lobster sauce. It usually contains green peas, scallions, etc., which this version didn't have. Overall, not impressed. The pork fried rice was okay but way too much soy used in cooking, as it was nearly 'black' in color, when most fried rice dishes are a golden brown. Hopefully they will take this as constructive criticism as they have potential. Just need to up their game a bit.

    So my son & I loved this place and have ordered from them a number of times. They have chinese & thai dishes are previously we were very pleased. Not sure what happened, the dumplings are still good and the general taos chicken was okay but the Thai dishes were not recognizable as Thai. Thai coconut chicken soup had no coconut at all or lime. It did have some chicken but nothing about it was thai except the price. And my thai chicken noodle dish was pretty tasteless. It wasn't wasn't even passable chicken chow fun. The ingredients were fresh but lacked flavor. It was disheartening & disappointing since this had been our new favorite asian place.

    Our food to eat again. Nothing gets thrown away. Left over the best.

They have an extensive menu with sushi, sashimi, teriyaki, noodles, soup, salads, fusion appetizers, etc. They even have some Korean items like bulgogi, sundubu, and bibimbap. Prices are reasonable. I called and placed a take-out order near closing time. The employee was accommodating, pleasant, and told me my order would be ready in 15 minutes. I drove over and was able to find street parking easily. The interior is casual and spacious, but a little dreary and outdated. They have exposed brick walls, wood tables, and hanging light fixtures. My food was prepared on time. I ordered: *Salmon Lover - 4 pieces of sushi, 4 pieces of sashimi, 6 piece roll ($20.50) *Tuna Lover - 4 pieces of sushi, 4 pieces of sashimi, 6 piece roll ($20.50) The salmon and tuna were fresh in taste, texture, and smell. Vibrant colors, firm and smooth textures, and delicate flavors! The sushi rolls had the right fish to rice ratio. The rice could've been more seasoned. The miso soup was warm, savory, and comforting. Not the best sushi I've ever had, but it did the job of satisfying my cravings. I would return to try their special rolls!

A few of us had been talking about trying it for a while, and it totally lived up to the hype. The vibe inside was welcoming and comfortable, and the whole hot pot experience made lunch feel like something fun and different instead of just a quick meal. We picked a broth and then ordered a bunch of meats, vegetables, and noodles to share. Everything tasted really fresh, and the broth was full of flavor from the start and got even better as we kept cooking. It's the kind of place where you end up trying a little bit of everything, and it's perfect for a group because everyone can customize their own bites. We also appreciated that it didn't feel rushed, even though it was lunchtime. Service was great too. The staff was friendly, checked on us often enough without hovering, and helped explain options for anyone who hadn't done hot pot before. That made a big difference, especially with a bigger group. By the time we finished, we were already talking about coming back. I definitely plan to return soon with my family, and I can also see myself bringing a few colleagues here as well. It's a great spot for catching up, doing a casual group lunch, or just getting a really satisfying meal.

In the West Coast, it is AYCE, but the presentation isn't as pretty. I gave it a 4 bc I do feel like the 225.00 price was not justifiable for the amount we got. It's literally about 100.00 cheaper in the West Coast for the same amount.

Black Tonkotsu Ramen: I think the thing I liked the most about this it is the noodle. It's firm but chewy and you get a respectable amount of it. The egg had a bit of a green band, but I'm not gonna complain about it. The broth is different from most black tonkotsu ramens that I've had, but it's not amazing. The chashu was the 2nd best thing in the bowl. It may not have tasted different from your everyday ramen, but there is something nice about doing the basics well. Generally, this is good enough to try. Service: I ordered by tablet. Paid on the card reader attached to the tablet. Got my food 10 minutes later. Not much service to talk about. Ambiance: The store looked nice. You're there to order and get your food. You dine in the many available tables in the dining area.
