Outside

Okay, this is our go-to if you're in this area for a concert or to cross the border...,Yeah you know who you are.....,Don't hesitate!, But be warned you will most definitely not be able to finish your food the portions are massive and old school * muahhh chefs kiss * delicious! Not fancy at all the locals know, very low key well just judge for yourself

Seafood Combination

After browsing for diner options I found this restaurant they have other locations. Great Food Amazing customer service I don't recommend the appetizers. Main course items are a big portion.

Crab Ragoon

Recent local find! Went there for lunch with coworkers, the place was well lit, clean, and quite a few tables with customers too! Got good business. They opened a location in Chula Vista as well. Go the lunch special which was around $13 or so, very affordable in this economy! Menu was in Spanish with English next to it Will visit again soon!

The place hits the spot with the classics. Got the crab rangoons, salt and pepper chicken wings, shrimp chow mein, beef n broccoli and their house fried rice. The only dish that wasn't great was the noodles and the rangoons. Overall, we got our food quick, the taste was fine. But it was pretty pricy. Would recommend if you're down south and have a craving for Chinese

Chicken wings
Maribel P.

I came for dinner with my Hubby and let me tell you, The food here is DELICIOUS from the amazing service by our waiter Manuel and check in's from the owner to the quality of exceptional taste of the food we ate. Our food had such fresh flavors and tasted so fresh, the broccoli had that fresh crunch in every bite and the wings came out piping hot! If you're in the area it's definitely a must!! Thank you Ying Li, we'll be back soon

My cousin recommended this cute authentic Chinese restaurant in San Ysidro. We were seated right away and greeted with a very bubbly attitude ! We tried Tsingtao beer that's our new favorite beer , honestly better than Sapporo . We order wonton soup the broth was so authentic reminds me of the Chinese food we used to eat in Tijuana growing up , along with king pao chicken , Cantonese chicken , salt&pepper wings and the chicken fried rice is the best one by far in San Diego !!! Anyone that is a lover of Chinese / Cantonese food you must come to Ying Li. Thank you for serving delicious food and value customer service , we felt very welcoming and will be returning

It was my coworker's request to have lunch catered from here for her last few days at work. We each chose several entrees and didn't realize how big they were going to be- there was definitely a lot of food leftover! My personal favorites were the bbq pork and noodle dishes. Everything else was pretty good though- from the cream cheese wontons to the chop suey, to the chow mein and rice dishes. I would definitely recommend getting food catered from here since the food and value is great!

Sweet sour chicken
Krishen W.

We came to this place during lunch time at work, this is definitely a hole in the wall! We got the sweet and sour chicken and Kung pao chicken. The sweet/sour wasn't my favorite - the sauce was rather sweet. The Kung pao was spicy but on point. We got fried rice and cream cheese wontons as well, which were good buys. The service is super fast too, making it a good break spot for work. It's located pretty close to the border! Parking is a bit tight due to construction.

We were driving back from Ensenada and got into Tijuana around 9:30 PM. We were looking for…read moresomething still open and came across this Chinese spot. The food was pretty good, and the portions were generous for the price. Service was decent, not anything special, but we were taken care of and the food came out in a reasonable time. If you're in Tijuana late at night and craving Chinese food, this place is worth checking out. You definitely get a lot for your money, and it hits the spot. Venía de Ensenada y llegamos a Tijuana como a las 9:30 p.m. Estábamos buscando un lugar que todavía estuviera abierto y encontramos este restaurante de comida china. La comida estuvo bastante buena y las porciones fueron generosas por el precio. El servicio estuvo bien, nada fuera de lo normal, pero nos atendieron y la comida salió en buen tiempo. Si estás en Tijuana por la noche y se te antoja comida china, este lugar vale la pena. Te dan bastante comida por tu dinero y realmente cumple cuando tienes hambre.

Super sucio, el lugar huele a Gatos. Ordenó Egg Foo Young con Jamón y el huevo era crudo, el arroz…read morefrito con puerco tenia puerco verde y podrido. Hizo una queja con la señora en la caja y mi dieron la espalda. Mi recomendación es no ir aquí, hay muchos lugares mucho más mejor por la comida china. Voy a quejar con cofepris y profeco
