    I was really trying to find some nice appetizing pictures for reference but I figured I might as well be the pioneer for just that! This new asian fusion cuisine spot in the new Hard Rock Casino is a bit of a hidden gem. The decor is very elegant. The table setting is a bit bland. I felt as if the menu was fusion because it had dim sum, which is Chinese and it had pho, which is Vietnamese. The waiter came to our table promptly to get our order because it wasn't busy at all. I ordered the spicy dumplings, pork soup, dumplings, Chinese, broccoli roasted duck bowl. I would say everything was exceptional except the pork soup dumplings. I felt as if the dumpling did not have enough soup or it was underdone because the top of the dumpling wrapper was not steamed all the way. Anywho everything did taste good and came out hot. Just more time on the soup dumplings.

    The ambience is fantastic and the portions are great. Food selection, pricing and service were also great. Appetizers were more on the expensive side compared to the portion but the main dishes were perfectly sized. Pork was a little chewy and lacked some flavor but overall pretty good.

    Really nice restaurant!! I love the decor and just the interior design/layout overall. My family ordered the: Vietnamese Pho, Princess Chicken rice bowl, and the Hong Kong-style Beef Chow Fun. Everything tasted delicious. The pho broth was salty though. I only requested Round Eye meat for mine and to not have beef ball or tripe in my pho. Our server was very kind and patient in explaining how they typically get similar requests about omitting a meat but often times never really accommodate it because the restaurant and kitchen gets busy. But I guess because we went early like lunch time and since it's slow, they were able to allow my request of just round beef.

    Hong Kong wonton noodles soup- had to return it
    Sanny C.

    Located inside Hard Rock casino. The host was quick with seating us. However, it took a while before someone came to assist us. The waitress advised that everything was street foods style. Pretty much all the beverages were in a can. Only the iced teas were in a cup. We ordered Pho. I tried the broth and it was so salty. I never had pho with such salty broth. There was more than half a bowl left. We got a Hk style wontons noodle soup. The egg noodles were super stuck together. We had to return it for the pork spareribs rice bowl. The ribs were ok, but the rice was not fully cooked. It was so tough to chew. Smh I, myself order the roasted duck noodle soup. Surprisingly, this was edible. The soup was ok and the egg noodles were normal lol the only problem was the way they chopped the duck. I had like 3 pieces that were nicely cut. One of the pieces was huge. I had to use my hands to hold and eat it. Service was not bad. Just a bit slow. Definitely will not return.

    Shoutout to Carol G! Amazing service with some great recommendations. We didn't have to wait anytime to be seated inside, plenty of space. I highly highly recommend the fried rice.

    I said when I return and get my food comp I would change my rating. Oh how they exceeded my expectations! After losing on the game floor, I came to grab my food before leaving. I explained to the hostesses at the front I have a food comp because they messed up my order last time I was here and they went n grabbed the manager. I told him who I was and he said Fresno right lol so he remembered! They sat us down to order and he handed us the menu. There was plenty of seating inside! Instead of just me getting my order that I got last time, he offered me two entrees, two appetizers and two drinks while waiting for the food. I was really surprised but happy! I love how they are making up for their mistake! This is great! And let me tell you yall, it was even better after I tasted the food!! Once we got the food, the girl that gave it to us was like anything else we can help you with? I'm like no this is good lol. Left smiling from ear to ear. Literally forgot about the fact I lost on the casino floor since this was a win! Left out the front and before making that mistake again, I checked the bag before actually leaving the premises. They got everything in there! Went to the car and took off. Couldn't wait to eat so ended to eating the appetizers on the road. Shrimp eggrolls was fireee!!! We already tried that from the last time when they messed up the order. The Szechuan spicy pork dumplings was good too but sauce was a little salty but dumplings alone were nice, juicy and plump! Washed it down with the coconut juice I got. Got home and tried our entrees. My bfs duck rice bowl was delicious. They gave him a good amount of duck pieces. It was moist and tasty! I ordered the curry Singapore noodles which came with shrimp & bbq pork. They gave me a good amount of shrimp!! Almost every bite I had shrimp in it. The curry taste wasn't very strong but it was still there. Wasn't over powering at all. I added some chili oil from home and it made it 10x better!! Next time I visit the hard rock, I will make a stop here and order my original order which was Princess chicken rice bowl. I still would like to try that. Thank you so much YOUYU and the night manager for making things right! I appreciate your service and the food!!

    We got stuck since the grapevine closed and decided to check out the new hard rock casino. Youth looked aesthetically pleasing so we gave it a try. YUM!!! The lo mein was so fresh and the veggies were amazing. Not too much oil. I would for sure go back again!!

    Kung pao chicken
    Gerardo C.

    Finally got to try YouYu located inside of Hard Rock Tejon. I went early and I ordered the kung pao chicken and pork dumplings with a Thai tea. I was seated fast and the waitress was so friendly and tentative! The restaurant was very roomy with a view of the casino floor my next visit I will try the pho overall great food and service!

    BBQ pork over rice.
    Trish S.

    A very roomy space in the Hard Rock Tejon casino . Seating was readily available on a Saturday night. Our server was helpful in letting us know how things work and that dishes come out whenever they're ready instead of appetizers, then entrees, etc. She also warned us that the soup dumplings take about 30 minutes to come to the table. Due to this style of service my husband was done with his noodle dish by the time my BBQ pork bowl was delivered, and the soup dumplings came out last. My husband liked his curry noodles, but didn't rave about them. My dish was a giant bowl of white rice with bbq pork and scallions on top. The pork was flavorful and tender, but there was way too much plain rice. No need for the huge bowl for such a minimal dish. The soup dumplings were not to my liking, with thick doughy dumplings and not enough soup filling, so I stuck to one and called it quits. Overall, not a bad place if you want to grab a quick bite and need somewhere to sit down, but not a destination spot .

    Sweet sour chicken

    The duck soup was fresh with perfectly cooked egg noodles, crunchy. Not a soy or salty soup and piping hot. In honor of mom I found duck soup. Sweet and sour chicken was crispy not soggy and a good pineapple tasting sauce. Service was attentive courteous, and food was served appropriately quickly. I was in heaven with my soup.. we will return for this cuisine and to check out the rest.... you should have see sticks!

    Chicken low-mein. $19. Too salty and oily.
    Cali A.

    Service: slow. Had to flag down someone and even then, we had to continue to wait. Food: ok. We ordered wonton soup, chicken low-mein and duck noodle soup. The broth of both noodle soups lack flavor. Just tasted like water down broth and noodles were okay. Low mein was super salty and oily. I had to add 1/2 glass of water to it to make it less salty. Price for each dish was between $16 to $19. Not really worth it. Wait staff said chef was from Hong Kong. Typical known dish in Hong Kong is the wonton soup so you'd have thought at least that dish would be tasty. It was meh. I cook way better myself

    Stop in on a Wednesday night for some fun and to try this new spot inside the HardRock Casino. The service was ok, but they don't serve the food together, plus are appetizer came out later after the main was served. The place is big, nice seating, and the ambiance is nice. The food had no flavor. I'll try other eating spots inside but as for this place, I will not be coming back to eat.

    Wonton soup
    Lonnie M.

    What a pleasant surprise. Authentic Asian food in the Hard Rock casino, 20 minutes from Bakersfield. I would never have expected the food to be as good as it was. The only thing better than the food is the great service. Waitress was on point and the manager went out of his way to make sure everything was perfect. Big shout out to Federico, made the experience perfect
