This review is for a visit of two adults and one teen on January 1st 2026 @ 7:40pm My mom wanted to treat me and my son to dinner, and although the original spot we planned to visit in the same lot was closed, I'm really glad it led us here. Parking was super easy, which is always a plus. The restaurant is located in a large shopping area surrounded by other food spots and grocery stores, so there's plenty of space and no stress trying to find a spot. As soon as we walked in, the space felt bright, clean, and welcoming. It had a fresh, well-kept feel that immediately made us comfortable. We were seated right away since it wasn't very busy at the time, which we appreciated. The gentleman who greeted and seated us was incredibly kind and patient. He introduced us to their online ordering system which was new to me, haha, but he made the whole process feel easy. He happily answered our questions and even offered thoughtful recommendations, which we really appreciated. We decided to order a few dishes to share family-style: chow mein, wontons in chili sauce, fried rice, and beef with broccoli. Setting everything in the middle and sharing made the experience feel even more warm and connected. The food overall was really enjoyable, and you could tell care went into how everything was prepared. The chow mein was especially nice because they were willing to adjust it to my mom's preference, which says a lot about their flexibility and service. The noodles had a great texture, soft with just the right amount of bite. The wontons in chili sauce had a rich, flavorful taste with a gentle heat that built slowly but never became overwhelming. It had just the right kick to keep things interesting while still letting the flavors come through. The sauce paired beautifully with the wontons and added a nice depth to each bite. The beef with broccoli was probably my favorite dish of the night. The broccoli was cooked perfectly and not overdone at all so it still had a slight crunch that gave it a really fresh feel. The beef was tender and soaked up the sauce nicely, and the sauce itself was savory, smooth, and full of flavor without being too salty or overpowering. Everything about that dish felt balanced and satisfying. The fried rice was solid, simple, comforting, and exactly what you expect from a classic fried rice. It wasn't anything overly fancy, but it was well-made and paired nicely with the other dishes. Sometimes simple done right is all you need. Overall, it was a really enjoyable dining experience. Between the kind service, the clean and inviting atmosphere, and the flavorful prepared food, it made for a lovely night out with my family. I'd definitely come back again and would happily recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxed, satisfying meal. read more

Tired Yang's Kitchen out today. Ordered bbq pork buns, beef and broccoli, beef chow fun and Chong Qing spicy chicken. Everything was delicious. The chicken was really crispy and I like that the broccoli was crunchy, not mushy. It's a one man show. The cook seats you and brings out the food. You order with a QR code and refill your own water. The restaurant and bathroom was clean. read more

Dined in with four adults and a baby. They use an app-based ordering system which is actually really convenient; you just go through and add what you want as you go, and the dishes come out pretty quickly without having to flag down a server. The waters tasted funny, I think the lemons had been sitting in the cooler for too long. The food itself was actually pretty good, including the curry fried rice with chicken, crispy Szechuan chicken, veggie chow mein. The chicken had plenty of Szechuan peppercorn flavor/numbing and was a favorite with the group. I thought the eggplant and tofu was just ok. Both outside and in the app, a discount was advertised, but my final bill didn't seem to reflect it. Overall a solid meal. read more

Shrimp and vegetables. Perfectly garlicky and vegetables cooked al dente. Sliced celery, carrots, broccoli, delicious shrimp. Some other veggies too, cabbage in a light garlic sauce. A side of white steamed rice. Vegetable egg rolls were alright. I suppose they're better if you dine in and freshly fried. But I still enjoyed them. I could tell they were fried for sure. The sweet and sour sauce yummy and really orange. Friendly service and good vibes. The restaurant was clean and inviting. Appreciated the order being ready and on time. Plenary of parking in a large lot with other businesses. SYOY! read more

My 80+ dollar order fit in one small plastic bag. The "boxes" seemed 1/2 the size a Chinese restaurant normally uses. Whatever kind of "crispy chicken" we got was nasty soggy, PINK, and inedible. I threw it away. NONE of the four dishes were great. All meats were sub-standard cuts. The kung-pao was ok. They were generous with the red-chili (+1). The fried rice was different. Rustic and ok. Certainly the best thing. (+1) I can't remember what the other disk was.. it wasn't memorable. The two stars are a generous two stars but perhaps I came on an off night. Other people seem to like it. read more

Came here for a pick up order. I ordered a Szechuan Seafood noodles with egg noodles and the portion was huge. I love the amount of food that was given. The soup was definitely spicy but not the type that would make you choke which was perfect. There was a lot of fresh fish balls in the soup I think which was good but I did wish there was more variety of seafood. The restaurant was empty when I walked in at 2 P.M. it could have been a weird time but my food was ready the moment I got there. I would definitely come back for a quick take out order. read more

Opened 4 years ago, momma pop restaurant all the way. Food - on point with flavors my husband grew up in Flushing, NY. *beef noodle soup, $14.95- hand shaven noodles were tender. Beef and the tendon could have braised a little longer, not super tender. Light in flavor, had tomato in the ingredient. * stir fried rice cakes, $14.95- traditional fried rice cakes. Only cabbage and green onion as veggies. The pork strips were tender. Minimal in ingredients, worked well for our kids! * orange chicken, $14.95 - I enjoyed the sweet sauce. Chicken fried mid way style between American Chinese and Chinese, medium batter level. Service- nice service. small restaurant, 4 people working on a Sat afternoon. Lady is limited in English. Food came out fast! Ambiance- very relaxed, casual. They do have a couple large tables for 8-10 ppl seating. Location- in strip mall with QFC, near Tapatio. Has plenty of parking. Value- portions were good in relative to their pricing and quality. Recommend- I would come back for the flavors, Hong Kong homey flavors. read more

This is a nice Sichuanese cuisine place in Newcastle. I've eaten at many Sichuan restaurants and this one is okay compared to the others.

I frequently passed this place on my grocery shopping trips and was always curious to try. My only regret was not trying sooner. Szechuan Crispy Fried Fish - insanely delicious. Crispy and light batter and packs a punch in flavor. I ordered a level three but definitely could have went higher. The spice was decent but mild if you really enjoy the Szechuan experience. Salt and pepper squid. - thick but super tender. No long chewing required. The mild yet perfectly seasoning of salt and pepper were perfect. The eggplant was soft and soaked up all the deliciousness. read more

good food - fresh and flavorful - but higher in price than most restaurants of their ambiance. clearly they are a go-to take out place for locals. They follow the trend in asking you to scan the phone to see the menu - then order - and then have some water brought you you with little or no greeting, conversation, or seeming desire to help make your dining experience a good one. 3 stars but 1 star for the table-side manners. I'm sure we will find a better experience down the road. read more

Small place, but nicely laid out and decorated. TV played playoff football game, nice to see. My first time here after wanting to go for years. They donated food for the local Newcastle Lunar New Year celebration and it was gone in a flash, so we stopped in afterwards with another couple for a meal. They have two Chinese-trained chefs that know their stuff. All our dishes were great! Started with fish & sauerkraut soup- my wife and her friend ordered-I didn't even see the menu! Cong you bing, Fried tofu, Chongqing chicken, cumin lamb, and a Singaporean style noodle dish. We shared a bottle of Columbia Valley Merlot that was surprisingly good with the dishes. There was a constant stream of takeout traffic while we were there, pretty good for a Sunday night. Now that I've broken the ice, will be a regular stop! read more

This review is about to-go food packaging. Restaurants should not be using Styrofoam for takeout food. There are so many alternatives and they are no longer cost prohibitive. Yang's food is delicious and their service prompt and pleasant. However, they need to stop using Styrofoam (which shows the recycle symbol of "6" inside a triangle, see photo). Note to administrators: I do not know how to remove the "Food" and "Service" tags for this post. read more

A bit disappointed with dinner tonight, as we were entertaining a family member from out of town. Ordering was easy and pick up was super quick, which were plusses. On the food side, the spring rolls were pretty bland with too much dough. The Szechuan crispy chicken was very oily and the batter was pretty thick. The included green beans were tasty - beware of the numbing chili if you're not used to it. The hand shaven noodle chow mein was just OK - lacking a bit of flavor and the noodles were pretty thick cut. read more

We found out about Yangs Kitchen pre-pandemic. The Chong Quin Spicy Chicken and Chow Mien with the Hand Shaved noodles have become our go to to go dishes. The service is always prompt and with to go ordered always correct. The restaurant space is comfortable and the staff is always friendly and courteous. Over the pandemic we supported Yangs as much as possible and we're glad to have a local restaurant available to frequent. Thank you for staying open and staying safe. Today we have to pause as prices have gone up and portion sizes have gotten smaller. We completely understand and will continue to support small business yet not as frequent as we had in the past. If you have not given Yangs a try I do recommend you take a moment to enjoy some very authentic cuisine. read more

Fantastic food and service Excellent flavors conveniently located We will return Yum Holly read more

We had take out from Yangs kitchen during the pandemic and was not terribly impressed. So glad we gave this restaurant a second chance! This time we were greeted and seated promptly. Our waitress informed us she had 3 people in the kitchen and in what seemed like a blink of an eye our food arrived. We had the garlic String beans and the cumin lamb. Both were fresh and flavorful. Will definitely be coming again!! read more

I love the szechuan crispy fish, this is one of my FAVORITE dishes here. The last two visits, I have literally ONLY ordered the crispy fish. It's crazy hot, crazy oily and crazy good. The amount of spicy is a lot but it's not burn your face off bad, it's make your nose runny. The fish is tender on the inside and super crisp on the outside. The deep fried green beans are fine, not enough to qualify it as like a real addition more like a "garnish" the amount of chili peppers/seeds in the take-out container are frightening and probably seem wasteful but what can you do? This dish is super good, one of the best places I've ever had szechuan crispy fish. I like their Chong Qing Spicy Chicken too but the fish is my go to. read more

Honestly? Disappointing. I came in for lunch with my family and we did their lunch special (soup/rice/dish). I ordered the flower soup (good, was sweet) and the twice cooked pork along side fried rice. The pork dish was dry, almost burnt, and had no aroma. The fried rice was similar. It was flavorless even though it was a soy sauce based fried rice. My parents ordered other dishes which were better. If I came here again I would get something shrimp-based. I don't recall what they ordered, but their dishes were at least saucy and not dry. However, their dishes were similar in that it seemed like they had the same sauce for being completely different dishes. I spent more time picking at peanuts from their dishes than eating the pork from mine. I don't expect to come again. read more

Sooooo Goood!! The portion is ridiculously huuuuge, and the flavor is craaaaazily good! Their specialty: Lazi Chicken (Chong Qing Spicy Chicken) & Tofu Fish (Fish & Soft Tofu in Spicy Gravy) Lazi Chicken is easily anyone's favorite... think of it as popcorn chicken w special Chinese spice, I can eat it as a snack all day long... For Tofu fish (Fish & Soft Tofu in Spicy Gravvy), the texture of the soft tofu speaks for the place's authentic level... the spicy gravy goes so well with rice, I literally can't stop inhaling this dish... and the spicy/savory level is balanced just right, it's a perfect comfort dish for any rainy night in Seattle. The owner has been settled in Seattle for over 20 years and has been in the restaurant business ever since... If you are in the neighborhood, don't forget to pay them a visit and try out their specialties!! read more

It's been great having this new Chinese restaurant in Newcastle. The food is excellent and the portions are medium to large. If you like spicy there's a lot to choose from but if not they still have you covered. Yea's Wok has had a monopoly on Chinese food in Newcastle and this place gives them solid competition. Overall their cuisine is different and not from the same province from what I understand. This seems very authentic, like someone's uncle or aunty is rustling up dishes from the family recipe box, and it's so good! Food is ready promptly and all but once I have been greeted with smiles and thanks and good wishes when getting takeout. They are following COVID protocols correctly too. read more

They have decent food at reasonable prices. My wife enjoys chow mein with egg noodles

I love that this place is so near my house! It's definitely a hidden gem. We decided to come here after our hike for some hand shaven noodle and it definitely did not disappoint! We came a little past lunch hours so it was not busy, but the people there are very few ND my and nice. They welcome us with a warm smile and a warm tea which was much needed. As for food, we ordered the following: Sezchuan seafood hand shaven noodle soup, the dried pork wontons, and a cup of the sizzling rice soup. The sizzling rice soup was so simple yet so flavorful. My friend who eat this frequently said it is one of the best on he has eaten. The rice is not crunchy anymore after being put in the soup but it's not mushy either and the soup flavor was yummy. The pork wonton was standard, there wasn't anything special about it but it was a deal (16 for $8). The noodle soup was very tasty. I love the hand shaven noodle texture, it was thick and chewy. The only thing I wish was that the noodle was longer, they cut it pretty short. Also, it was not spicy at all even though it was called spicy. Other than that, it was delicious, they did not skimp on the seafood, you get fish, shrimp, squid, etc. The flavor was spot on as well. I will probably be back soon to get more hand shaven noodle and probably take my parents to it to try their other dishes. Definitely glad it's close by! read more

Is yangs under new management. We used to order here regularly but haven't in the past year or si until tonight. It seems like everything about the food has changed for the worse. The mongolian beef, the prawns and vegetables, and the onion pancakes were all tasteless. No salt, no nothing, just flavorless. The mongolain beef was also about 70% vegetables, a far cry from the previous ratio. No chance we will order here again, too many other good options to choose from in the area. read more

Literally only reviewing their spicy fried fish - perfect is all I can say. Light tongue numbing, crispy with some green beans tossed in. Can't go wrong, it's been the same everytime we order! I rarely ever eat fried or oily foods but THIS IS my exception. Recommend if you like szechuan! read more

Great new Chinese restaurant in Newcastle, definitely a welcome addition to the neighborhood. Came tonight for the first time & tried their hand-shaven chow mein with pork, moo-sho chicken, Szechuan crispy chicken & green onion pancake. The Moo-shoo chicken and hand-shaven chow mein were really good, the Szechuan fried chicken was good, though a bit lacking in flavor. Service was very good. We'll be back read more

First off, the food wasn't too bad, and the service was good, our server was attentive. (We were the only ones there) However I asked for salt and pepper, she brought it, I put some pepper in my egg flower soup, then she dropped off the food, and before I even finished my soup and moved to my king pao chicken, she came back and took the salt and pepper back?? It was strange, I didn't even get to use any on my meal yet lol. Then when my Kung Pao chicken came, I found one.. yes one piece of bell pepper. Like hwhat?? I love bell peppers and veggies! There's nothing but chicken, cabbage and peanuts in this meal. Sadness! Just look at the difference between the menu photo and the photo I took of what I received. :( They do however get a bonus unexpected star from the tv having a home repair/improvement show on and as a man that was unexpected and cool to see. Note: after reading more reviews I agree with many of them.. the food is really lacking flavor and missing ingredients and the reviewer who found a weird bug in their food? Yeah-no!!!!!! read more

They recently renovated the restaurant - it's very well lit and clean. My favorite dish is their fish in spicy gravy sauce. The fish is so tender and thw sauce is absolutely addicting with some rice. They give huge portions for each dish as well. Some other favorites are the green beans, eggplant and tofu, chongqing chicken, and honey walnut prawn. There's ample parking and never a wait for a table read more

Was tired of being stuck at home and eating my own cooked food during this lockdown and quarantine, so decided to treat myself to some takeout. I spent a bit of time on Yelp deciding what I was craving and what I felt like eating. I finally decided on this place. There were more than a few items I wanted to try, but I stuck with two items: ChingQing Spicy Chicken and Dry Cooked Intestines. Both were good; good texture and good flavor. I just wish the ChingQing Spicy Chicken had more string beans in it. read more

Their rice pots menu is pre-made food that is so hard and tasteless. I'm very disappointed with the quality of their food.

I love the new rice pot. So yummy! I will recommend to anyone. The to go package is so cute too.

Ok so I was NOT impressed when I came here the first time. That was 6 months ago and I decided to try it again. FANTASTIC! I had the Chef Special Beef Brisket. It was full of flavor, a little spicy, and all great And unlike so many other Chinese restaurants the service was great. I will bring the family Update: Came in again and had the garlic beef. It was OMFG good. This is now my favorite Chinese restaurant. read more

This is one of my Favorite places to go to the for dinner or lunch. This is also my go to places with friends and families! They have amazing true Chinese dishes, one of my favorite fish dish is the Chef Special #9 it's call the Fish and Soft Tofu in spirit gravy. The other one would have to be Chopped pepper hot chicken. This place also has a lot of kid friendly dishes that are not spicy (you can also as them to make it not spicy). My kids love the [Green onion pancakes ] they are little pancakes, they also really enjoy the [Honey Walnut Prawns] and the [ Chow Mein] (you can pick Chicken, Beef, Pork, Prawns, Tofu or just Vegetables. They also have the choices of hand save noodles or egg noodles). these are just someone of them I could go on and on but I would highly recommend coming and trying it for yourself. read more

I ordered #2. Chong Qing Spicy Chicken And they gave me Dried cooked intestines. Order was not started when I arrived. Came back 20 minutes later to pick up. Did you give me the wrong thing? And not call me. Well they corrected the order, which based on the door dash app could very well have been my or door dashes fault. Unfortunately the correct order was also not great. Chewy meat. Overcooked veggies. There are much better places than this within 150 yards. read more

This used to be a favorite restaurant of ours. I would get a take-out order every Thursday. Today I placed an order and when my husband went to pick it up the order was wrong. The woman insisted that I said something that I did not. I called in attempt to clear up the matter and she was rude and insisted that I said something that I did not say. I told her she could either honor the order that I wanted or they would lose a customer. She continue to argue with me. I hung up. I called back and asked to talk to Mr. Yang. She further the argument and was raising her voice at me. They have now officially lost me as a customer. Here's a message to Mr. Yang- do not let anyone be rude or yell at your customers.l, especially loyal ones! PS- they have gotten my order wrong before. They did not provide me with enough of my food but they had no problem making up more and taking my money. read more
