    Garlic & Bacon Fried Rice

    If you need a good spot to cover many different types of food, this is your spot! The Garlic bacon fried rice is OUT OF THIS WORLD. It has such a good flavor and was filling. Others in our group got the Beef & Broccoli, a Sausage egg & cheese, and the Pad See Ew. We all enjoyed our meals throughly and had some leftover to take home. The atmosphere was very comfy and the service was great as well! If we lived in the area we would totally go back!

    Service was great, immediately got seated to a booth & greater with a smile. The food came out fast! Hot! Seasoned & was absolutely delicious. The restaurant is clean & had a good flow of people. I'm so glad I got to get a chance to brunch here. I will definitely be coming back here!!

    Pad Thai
    Logan L.

    Wow!!! We usually don't go for restaurants that have multiple kinds of food, but this one really achieved that. Needless to say, we were very surprised with the food, which was high quality and delicious. I have extremely high standards for Asian foods, and we tried Thai and Chinese food,. It tasted so good. Service was good, as we came with kids and they gave them a free Mickey mouse pancake! 100% recommend.

    Service was excellent! Lots of smiles to make one feel welcomed, attention provided throughout stay whereby they provided coffee refills and checked if everything was ok. On top of that the Loco Moco and mushroom burger were delicious!!! I would definitely be coming back.

    Veggie Delight with Chicken lunch combo
    Alexandria M.

    First time coming here and the food was delicious. I ordered the lunch combo veggie delight with chicken. It came with tasty fried garlic on top! (1 star and was not too spicy) The soup was a good size and cane with 2 large wonton and green onions. The rice was so fluffy and the sauce was lovely. Staff was friendly and fast service. I highly recommend this place and I will come back again.

    Crispy Garlic Chicken

    Good food all around. Ordered the Crispy Garlic Chicken and it had a ton of flavor. Wife ordered drunken noodles and those were really good as well.

    "Chow mein" was excellent. Crispy and saucy!
    Cora L.

    I typically avoid restaurants that offer 3 separate types of cuisine (like Chinese, Thai, and American). But after hearing good things about Young's from many different friends with discerning palates, I decided to give it a shot. I was not disappointed! The "Chow mein" listed on their entree menu is actually Hong Kong style pan-fried egg noodles (or "jeen mein" in Cantonese). My favorite!! And it was delicious -- served piping hot and extra crispy, as it should be, with a heaping pile of sauced up veggies and protein. On a Tuesday at noon, the restaurant was probably half full with plenty of street parking outside. It's a clean, spacious, and well-lit dining area with attentive staff. In fact, the service was so good that I think the gals offered to refill our soft drinks more than four times in just over an hour. But they were very polite and we didn't feel rushed. My only regret is not trying Young's sooner. Can't wait to go back and try other dishes!

    Egg breakfast with sausage links and biscuit
    Michelle X.

    What a unique spin on a diner: upon first look, there are American style booths. Then you realize the walls have sweeping landscapes and the sauce holder has sriracha, hoisin. Instead of trying to fuse cuisines, they offer both American food and thai chinese food. When the menu is pressed under the table glass, you know 2 things: 1. the restaurant is serious about its offerings 2. the menu doesn't change often because the dishes are classics. Because we went for Sunday brunch, we chose to go with American. Everything was done super well, from the eggs to the hashbrowns to the biscuit to the gravy. If anyone ever doubted Asians cooking good American diner food, they'll be proven wrong. Support this family-run business!

    My partner and I were so excited to try this place after seeing it on TikTok. We even skipped…read moreeating all day so we could fully enjoy it. Knowing how viral spots can get, we arrived early at 4:50 since they were listed to open at 5. By 5:30, no one had shown up. We checked their Instagram and found comments from other people who had the same experience from other days: showing up at opening time only to find the doors still closed. The owner had replied to one of those comments saying, "Life does unfortunately get in the way of being able to open right at 5 pm..." So apparently this happens somewhat regularly. Right as we were about to give up, someone finally pulled up and unlocked the place. We rolled down our window and he told us we needed to park somewhere else. That's fine. We waited a few minutes to let him get settled before walking in. There was no "thanks for waiting" or any acknowledgment at all. When we asked if they were serving food, he told us the sandwich guy "should be here around 6:30 or so," and suggested we grab a burger next door if we were really hungry. Honestly, that was such a letdown. We'd waited all day to eat, driven 50 minutes from Tacoma in the pouring rain, and were so eager to try their food, not the burger spot next door. We debated leaving but decided to make the best of it. We grabbed burgers next door, came back, and ordered cocktails. The drinks were fine, and the space itself is genuinely awesome, great vibe, super fun décor, and a lot of character. I mean they even play scary movies on a projector. Like, it's awesome. But the experience left us feeling more like an inconvenience than valued customers. I really wanted to love this place, but unfortunately, the lack of communication and hospitality overshadowed everything else.

I was seated quickly and got a great table overlooking the kitchen. I enjoyed watching that action and felt like I was part of a cooking show =) I ordered a dirty martini which was made perfectly and the blue cheese olives were divine. For food we did their family feast which consisted of: Tomo Caesar- we really enjoyed it, not overly drenched, lots of favlor and crunch Albacore Tataki - nearly melts in your mouth, fresh and the ponzu was so good Dan Dan Beets - I'm not a huge beet fan but it was good and the citrus added really makes the dish Cacio e Pepe Rice Cakes - literally one of the best things I've ever had, amazing, warm, gooey, flavorful and comforting...a 10 for me Dry-Aged Steam Burgers - a mini bite of heaven, people who don't appreciate these are not real burger eaters...they are absolutely delicious, soft and cheesey... I could've ate 6 of these alone Klingemann Farms Pork Chop - grilled perfectly, and the sauce that is laid over it is like drink in a cup delicious, I wish I had white rice to soak it up because we did not want to waste it Cara cara orange + coconut pandan Kakigori - shaved ice dessert, very refreshing and light even though it's like a foot high when it comes out, we devoured it All that came as part of the feast but we also added the Dungeness Crab Rice - this was like a wet risotto and it was incredible, the flavor is packed, the brown butter dashi is like liquid gold and the only thing to make it better would be to triple the size because you don't want to stop eating it!!! The restaurant itself is pretty small but that sort of makes it even better, everyone is socializing and enjoying the food, the staff is great and attentive but not overbearing and the chefs are doing beautiful work. I look forward to coming back and trying the items we didn't get to try this round. 10/10 recommend!!

The standout dish was the Dungeness crab rice, which was easily the best bite of the meal. It was rich and well balanced, and the one dish I would strongly recommend ordering. Most of the other dishes were underwhelming. The cacio e pepe rice cakes in particular sounded promising but didn't deliver much flavor and ended up being disappointing. It's also quite far to get to, and given the overall experience, it's hard to say the trip was worth it beyond the crab rice. Overall: worth trying the crab rice, but the rest of the menu didn't stand out.

That's the way it is. We hoped this would be our new holiday go-to. We loved the idea of a week-long menu during holidays. We took advantage of the Irish St. Patrick's Day menu, and we were excited to go back for the Easter menu. The Easter menu was also shown on their website as being a week long - so that's three more days from the day we went. When we got there, we spent a few minutes being discombobulated because we couldn't find any of the Easter menu items besides the pancakes (photo) and the drinks menu. In addition, the staff was being a big cagey about it. The menu was still featured on the website but turns out, we were eventually told, that they ran out of the ingredients for most of the items (which would be ham and pork, I guess) and the menu was shut down except for the drinks and the pancakes (nobody mentioned the pancakes and they weren't named in an Eastery way). So, folks, if you offer a week-long menu for one of the biggest holidays of the year, please get enough inventory. We know times are tough, but you did decide to do this and presumably know better after being open since 1979. Please take the holiday menu down from your website if it's not applicable anymore. Please put "subject to availability" on your flyer online if it's possible you will run out of inventory. Please be forthcoming and cheerful and apologetic that you don't have the holiday menu anymore, not defensive. Please tell your entire staff that you aren't serving it anymore. Non-wait staff. Why do you ask us what we want to drink, then tell us we'll have to ask our server? Just bring us water and be done with it. Wait staff. You seem like you enjoy your job, or used to, but are over-worked. That's too bad. We hope things get better. So, this will probably not be our go-to holiday restaurant after all.
