    Ordered via DoorDash. Taste is okay. One star for that but.... Oil filled order for Cantonese Noodle. So. Much. Oil. - DO NOT ORDER. SEE PICS BELOW. Not sure if it's just me but the quality is bad. I don't even want to eat it. Eat at your own risk. Chinese food can be greasy but this is like overloaded.

    Service was polite. We got a sweet sago/taro dessert after dinner roast pork was ok - flavor was good but lacked a bit of the crunch and warmth fried noodle dish was also okay porridge with fish was decent chinese vegetable (ong choy) was decent. Need to try the goose and duck next time.

    My mom recommended we try Yummy Garden for dinner. Increasingly, there are more Chinese restaurants popping up in cities like Renton and Bellevue. You don't need to go to Seattle Chinatown these days for Chinese food. I wasn't sure whether they were still undergoing soft opening, as the menu seemed limited and had limited seafood options. It was more meat centric, especially with roasted duck, geese, and pork. Unfortunately, the restaurant sold out of these delectable items on our visit. Helps to order in advance. Several good dishes from our visit: * Salt and Pepper Pork Chop were crispy, moist and soft, and well seasoned. The fried crust was almost tempura-like. * My dad loved this fried noodle dish that was served upside down, with the sautéed meat and veggies encased inside a crispy shell of fused noodles. *Sautéed pea sprouts always a good veggie option in Chinese restaurants, but do expect to pay more than say, Gai Lan. * Free Tapioca dessert is always welcome. OK dishes * The steamed ground pork didn't seem to have much flavor pop. * Stir-fried chicken and veggies were a bit too heavy on the sauce.

    Egg drop soup, only served with the lunch special.

    In the Renton Highlands, there are several nice Chinese restaurants. Some better than others for sure. But one spot in the Sunset Square strip mall is always in constant flux. As of 2024, the current resident-Chinese restaurant goes by the name of Yummy Garden. Now over the past years, it has changed hands, as well as menu. This time, it has transformed itself from the 1970's divey Chinese-American establishment, to something more modern, cleaner and upgraded decor. Now it is not just simply a refresh of the furniture while keeping the same menu. This place definitely reflects new ownership and a new attitude of service, as well as menu. At Yummy Garden, you notice there is no traditional front counter. You are greeted at the front and promptly seated. However, if you want something to go, you walk to back counter where there is a TV screen showing today's specialties, and window where you can view the latest roast duck or roasted BBQ pork offerings. No other Chinese restaurant in Renton, that I know of, offers this. The menus are also not photocopied, but printed with hard-back covers (nice touch). The food quality is vastly different (in a very good way) and well presented. Where there are daily lunch specials, they are definitely presented well, as not rushed on the plate, as other restaurants would do. If you are there to sit, you can enjoy your meal, and notice the dish is as appealing as you ordered. I had the ginger beef lunch special, and added broccoli (extra charge of course) and my friend has the sweet and sour chicken. If you sit down, the added bonus is that you are given a hot bowl of egg-drop soup, or hot and sour, if available. Don't forget the tea. I also couldn't resist to order a pound of roasted BBQ pork, complete with hot mustard. It's what makes a great meal! Be advised, this restaurant does not offer dim sum. Only a few in Renton do, and it's okay if this one doesn't. Banquet space is available. So, if you are in the Renton Highlands on northeast Sunset Boulevard and looking hunkering for some well-to-do Chinese, try Yummy Garden. It is quite yummy!

    My family and I were long time customers of the former Chinese restaurant at this location, Red Bamboo. We were also long time customers of the restaurant before Red Bamboo, Mandarin Palace. Alas, the management has changed hands once again under a new restaurant name, Yummy Garden. They have been open since October 2023 and have since renovated the interior of the restaurant including a new restaurant layout and repainted walls. Although we were sad to see that our beloved Red Bamboo restaurant had closed, we decided to give Yummy Kitchen a try. We came for Sunday night dinner at around 5:30pm. There were about four other groups already eating when we walked in. The restaurant has at least a dozen tables and so we had no issue getting a table. While Red Bamboo served mostly Cantonese (Southern Chinese) dishes, Yummy Garden serves mainly Mandarin (Northern Chinese) food with a few Cantonese dishes scattered throughout the menu. The menu was about six pages long, attached with a single ring clasp. I overheard one of the servers say they're getting more formal menus on Monday. My family ordered: the PUMPKIN with SALTED EGG, CHOW FUN with BBQ PORK, SEAFOOD TOFU CLAYPOT, and SPICY GREEN BEANS with PORK. We also were going to order four bowls of rice, but the waiter said the bowls were big and thus advised we order two bowls of rice for the four of us instead- which we are glad we did because each bowl was enough for at least two people. The PUMPKIN with SALTED EGG was the most unique dish of the dishes we ordered. Unlike other restaurants, the chef deep fried the pumpkin coated in salted egg rather than sprinkling salted egg on top of the fried pumpkin. The pumpkin was sweet and perfectly fried. This was our family's favorite dish of the night. The CHOW FUN with BBQ PORK was our least favorite dish as it was slightly anemic/wasn't charred enough and didn't have a lot of pork. With that said, the portion size was generous. The SEAFOOD TOFU CLAYPOT was good and came with a variety of different seafood (rock cod, shrimp, squid) and vegetables. While tasty, the slurry (sauce) was a little thin and dilute. It just needed a little more cornstarch to thicken jt. Lastly, the SPICY GREEN BEANS with PORK was nicely caramelized. The beans were fresh and had a nice crunch to them. They were nicely seasoned with dried shrimp and garlic. My only complaint was that the pork was overly salty. Tea and dessert were both complimentary. The tea was brewed super dark (almost like coffee) and was some variety of black tea. Dessert tonight was red bean soup which was the perfect amount of sweetness to end the meal. Service was good, but we did have to wave the waiter down a couple of times. With that said, I understand that they're still figuring some things out as they've been only open a few weeks. All three servers were friendly and were fluent in Cantonese and English (and I assume Mandarin as well). Overall: 3.5/5 for food, 4/5 for service, 4/5 for atmosphere

    Beef noodle soup and veggie stir fry -9/23
    Kim Y.

    We came here shortly after their grand opening (summer '23 maybe). I wasn't sure if the menu was the same as the Red Bamboo or not. They certainly changed the decor. The room is much more open and yet strangely situated or is it just me? Anyhow, the menu did indeed change so it took me a while to decide what I wanted. Settled on the beef soup and veggies stir fry. For 2 dishes, I thought it was rather pricey and the portion for the soup was on the small side for the price. The soup was plentiful but the other stuff was not. I liked that it was tasty though. I appreciated that the veggie dish included lots of variety. It came out nice and hot. I think their English is limited but the order was accurate. They share the parking lot with other businesses.

    Great food, clean dining room and very nice atmosphere. Service was welcoming and efficient. We will go back for sure!

    This hidden gem is tuck away in a strip mall that feels like it's only known to locals. Our friend, who lives in a town over took us here for lunch. As we entered the restaurant after lunch rush, we had the place to ourselves at first. W we're greeted with a friendly smile and immediately seated by the window. The menu was larger and had more options than I had imagined. The food was just delicious.the stir fry beef was juicy and tender. I was a little disappointed with the charsiu pork being dry and not as good as other bbq places. The hot and sour soup was decent. Service was excellent overall and pricing was just right. They can accommodate large groups and banquet here.

    This was a lunch, special almond fried chicken great color great flavor crispy outside

    This restaurant has changed hands quite a few times in the last few years and each time the restaurant was horrible until today.... The place I usually have lunch was closed today so I came here and thought I'd give it a try. The restaurant is super clean. The food came out looking very fresh tasting fresh and I was very happy with everything we got and I will definitely return. They have lunch specials. I think there's like 10 items to choose from. They're all like $12. We had one lunch special an order of barbecued pork and one order of Singapore rice noodles.

    Pumpkin with salted eggs! Very yummy

    My daughter has been raving about this place for some time now. We met there for a Sunday lunch…read more Well let us start off this way... I am sorry I did not try it sooner!! She has been going on and on about this "Fire Breather" burger for a bit. First things first, exceptionally clean and friendly place. Seated quickly and very attentive to us and the rest of the patrons there. Broad selection of food and adult beverages. Breakfast till 1:00 pm on Sat/Sun so it was hard for me to decide what I wanted as I had my mind set on the "Pub Club" but noticed that they had Chicken Fried Steak, oh the choices.... Not disappointed on the "Pub Club" it was Yumi! It was full of all the things that make a "Club Sandwich", the kicker was it had "pepper bacon" on it! My sandwich was piled with meat cheese, tomato, and lettuce. Now this is where it gets interesting, I added some of the aforementioned "Fire Breather Sauce" to it, just a bit. It is freakin Habanero Pepper Mayo(ish) sauce, WOW or should I say YEOW! Not just hot but exploding with flavor. As stated, my lunch partner had the "Fire Breather" burger w/ added Pepper Bacon and Avocado. It was more than a mouth full of dripping yum. Meat done perfectly, nice fresh avocado, thick pieces of pepper bacon done to perfection. After seeing and eating the pepper bacon I decided to take home a BLTA with cheddar cheese. The onion rings were some of the best I have had in a while. Beer was cold and wet! Overall, a great meal and you will too. The words of the day today are "Pepper Bacon"

The staff is very friendly, as always. Our server gave us great recommendations! We love the atmosphere here, very casual, no pressure to rush. Breakfasts came out fast. Our server recommended the corned beef hash. It had bits of corned beef. I tried the Fiesta Scramble. Nice thick sourdough toast. The scramble was tasty. It came with jo-jo type potatoes (which are not a fav). Hubs got chicken fried steak. He's a bit of a connoisseur and said it was decent. This was a nice low key spot for weekend breakfast. It is 21+ only.

My daughter ordered their Chicken Katsu plate and mine was the Kalua Pig plate. My daughter enjoyed the katsu and it was such generous portion. However I didn't enjoy my kalua pork. It had an amazing smokey aroma but the taste was nothing but just salt. The side dishes were very tasty however. At first, I was trying my best to eat it with rice but the salt in the end really got to me. Especially I have high BP, so I decided to let the lady behind the counter know. It was very nice of her to remake it but it was still very salty. By then, I didn't want to eat it anymore. She offered to remake it for the third time as the chef was feeling bad about it. I told her, it's OK. My mouth only tasted salt and I had chucked down so much water including the free drinks she offered. I was already full. My daughter tasted it and said it was OK and told me she would eat my kalua pork and I could have her leftover half of chicken katsu. Tomorrow is New Year's Eve. It will be our dinner if we can't find a restaurant open.
