Very attentive staff. Knowledgeable about menu ingredients which I appreciate for one with allergies and sensitivities. However, I was initially disappointed that they only had one gluten free dish. It was the V1: Tomato Flavored Rice Noodle Soup. Server suggested I add chicken without the seasoning. WOW very tasty. Great suggestion by the server. Comfortable venue. Wish they had a liquor license!!! read more

On the way to another restaurant, saw this place and said "what the heck". Dropped on in and due to its interior design, cleanliness and soup concept, we stayed and proceeded to order. Observing the others eat, each person basically got their own large individual "pot" of soup with their choice of broth, meat, vegetables and other add ons. Think of it as customized soup. We opted for the beef rib broth noodles. I wanted to customize the noodles however I was informed that they only have that type which were rice noodles. The noodles were like a thinner udon noodles and were perfectly made. Added an appetizer of spicy sliced beef tendons as well. These two were the perfect combo since the soup still needed a more meaty or savory component and we did not opt for any additional meat for the soup. I would definitely return. read more

Great food. Enjoyed the Pork soup dumplings (9.3/10), cauliflower skewer (9.3/10), and beef lo mein (8.4/10). Nice amount of food for to split amongst 2. Place is spotless and has a put together yet casual atmosphere read more

This is a great addition to Asia town! I was anticipating this place to open and was looking forward to the food hall concept, however, this is more of a bigger and newer version of Dagu rice noodle restaurant! There are plenty of seating so you won't feel cramped at all. I like that you can order your food via a QR code. The servers are also very attentive so overall amazing service! The food is good! The noodles are always perfectly cooked and the soups are boiling hot when it is served in a pot for you. The soup is also very flavorful. You can choose whatever protein you want with your noodle soup and you can't go wrong! This place is especially good during the Winter times. They also have a very wide selection of drinks. It is served a cute cup. I usually opt for half sugar for my drinks but even then it was not sweet enough for me! Next time I will try the 70% sugar! read more

Been here a couple of times before, but just now leaving a review. Glad to have this addition to CLE Asiatown! The space is pretty cool - not sure how to describe it... maybe modern-hip. Whatever it is, it works! They have a pretty extensive menu - from skewered BBQ meats and seafood (my favorite is the pork belly), to bao buns (which the kids love), your standard meat and rice dishes, and my meal of choice: the noodle soups. They come in these heated stone (I think) bowls that keep the soup hot instead of cooling down as you eat. Their boba/tea game is on point! Lots of options there, too!!! Service is efficient. You can either order from your table yourself using your phone, or servers can take your order for you. Same with paying when you're done. Food usually comes quickly. Pricing seems relatively fair - I hope it stays that way. Will be back again many more times, I'm sure. read more

Very modern dining hall & beautifully decorated. I was greeted as soon as I walked through the door. Very clean restaurant too. Ordered takeout; dumplings. They were delicious! Freshly prepared & homemade. I noticed while I was waiting for my order that the staff was working very hard and efficiently. There were many take out orders being prepared along with bubble teas. My dumplings were still warm and fresh by the time I arrived at home. I had a 25 minute drive. I wish I would have had more time to eat in as the menu has many choices of entrees. Will allow more time in my day the next time . Looking forward to visiting here again soon. read more

We came here for the first day of lunar new year and it was so good! The place is so cute and has pretty ample parking. It's decorated really cutely with lots of red lanterns and light wood furniture. Ordering is super easy, as you can use the QR code. We ordered the crossing the bridge noodles with beef slices, garlic eggplant, pork bao, and a strawberry Yakult drink. All were really good and flavorful!! Also for all that food, it was only $35 which is pretty affordable!! I'll def be back to try some other things read more

My husband and I tried YYTime the first weekend it officially opened and were very excited to try the new concept. We tried the Bang Bang chicken for an appetizer (so surprisingly similar to Japanese fried chicken we had in Kyoto last year), grilled shrimp (** highly recommend ***), beef bbq, and I believe it was B5 (sour and spicy soup). We also had the E2 deep fried mini buns, which were delicious. Recommend the brown sugar bubble tea at 25% sweetness. Cannot wait to try more of the menu! As a Cleveland native and CSU alumni that used to live in Tower Press down the road, I was SO EXCITED this building was used for such a great business. The building is unrecognizable with its modern concept that brings a whole new breath into the area. Hope to see new things pop up around and we are so lucky to have this in Cleveland! read more

I was very excited to try YYTime, since I grew up in the Chinatown area. But my high expectations didn't match up with my first experience. I'm sure not having photos didn't help either, as most of the menu consisted of just words so I just picked random items. The decor and ambience in the place was very nice. Wish there were blinds on the windows though, since the setting sun was blinding my friend at the spot we sat at. Food: I ordered the Braised Beef Brisket with Rice (R4) and the mild spiced chicken feet app. The rice platter was beautifully displayed, but honestly, there was no flavor or sauce to the beef. I was disappointed. I know their old place (Dagu) is known for noodle dishes, but I thought their addition of rice items would have been just as tasty... As for the chicken feet, it was good they weren't super spicy, but it was honestly really chewy. I thought it was going to be similar to dim sum chicken feet, where the meat is loose and it's much easier to chew. This was hard and felt like you were going to break your teeth chewing it. I wouldn't be getting this dish again. read more

Came on a Thursday with a group of 5. Parking available in the lot behind. Very nice renovated space inside, plenty of seating. We shared lots of apps, my favorite was the cucumber salad and bang bang chicken. I got the A5 and it was really good. Small kick. Noodles were my fav. My husband got the R5 and he really liked it. Servers were polite. Good spot. read more

We got a couple of Boba teas, honeydew and crème brûlée. We got deep fried spring rolls and spicy barbecue beef on a skewer. The food had great flavor. Service was impeccable, and the place was spotless, extremely busy yet we never waited for anything. Definitely high recommendations. read more

Love this vibrant new addition to CLE Chinatown! It's a mix of the best noodle soups, bbq, appetizers, bao and protein dishes. Today I had the tomato based soup with crispy pork chop. Noodles and protein came on the side (you can also ask for refill of more noodle). The broth was piping hot, in a mini caldron and sits inside a holder so that it's elevated. Broth was not spicy but taste was flavorful. My favorite item that my group ordered is not pictured but was a brine beef shank. Truly exceptional and will definitely order again. The umami profile was so unique. For dessert I had a dragona matcha latte. Super creamy and wasn't too sweet which is perfect amount of sweet for my taste. Bringing my mom and in laws next time I'm sure they will love it read more

YYTime, is a newer addition to the AsiaTown neighborhood, offering Taiwanese night markets and Chinese street food dishes. The vibe inside YYTime is social, family-friendly, like a lively street food scene. Inside decor includes high ceilings, modern industrial aesthetics with Chinese influences, and waiting area with ample seating for both intimate and larger gatherings. The restaurant is designed to handle both individual orders and larger groups, with tables primarily built for parties of four but also larger booths available. They offer an extensive menu of street food staples like bao, dumplings, and izakaya-style BBQ skewers, as well bubble tea and an expanded selection from Dagu Rice Noodle. The dishes have a touch of trendy night market cuisine, featuring items that creative, like many different broths for rice noodle soups, yakitori, and a range of hot and cold appetizers. The service during my first visit was superb - timely seating, attentive table staff, helpful advice and guidance through the menu. I visited during a week day afternoon. YYTime stands out as a must visit Chinese food hall in Cleveland, with innovative street food offerings and a community-focused dining experience. Whether you're looking for a quick bite or a place to spend quality time with friends and family, this is a great place to add to your list. read more

We came to check out the soft opening this weekend (I've been missing Dagu in my life of late). Decor truly felt like a food hall, but we were still served by waitstaff. The revamped Dagu seemed tastier than before and back to its OG style (we thought the flavors were diminishing before they closed the first location). Yakitori was mostly hits (we really liked the sichuan lamb, okra, rice cake... lotus and potatoes were too soft in my opinion - wish they had more of a crunch). Bubble teas were tasty treats. Disappointingly the buns were not yet ready until the real opening - so we do look forward to coming back soon! read more

I really wanted to like YYTime. Once you walk through their restaurant doors, you are mesmerized by the lighting and decor of the restaurant. Plenty of tables. We were greeted by the staff, and received our order quite quickly. We opted for a take-out of their Braised Beef Brisket on white rice. Unfortunately, this dish was disappointing and not to my liking. It lacked full robust flavor, and was chewy, and not tender. read more

I believe YYTime newly opened this location. The inside is very new, and they clearly paid close attention to detail on designing the interior. Food is relatively cheap, well prepared, and good presentation. The drinks are a little bit on the expensive side, but still good. Service is good, and waiters are friendly. Will be back. read more

This place was delicious and fairly priced. I also love how you can order from your phone.

The staff is great. The space is not what I expected when I think food hall but the food is mostly good. For many dishes, you can choose spicy or not. The portions were larger than anticipated, and the menu is pretty long (could probably be organized a bit better), but it was an overall good experience. read more

Well appointed, quick service, interesting & tasty food. Definitely a step up from your usual Cantonese fare.

Headed to this spot about 1 week after opening weekend and the wait was over an hour for lunch. We were hoping it would be worth the wait but truly can't say it was. The rice noodle soup was underwhelming with a stingy amount of toppings. Our bowls included half a piece of fish tofu (not even a full piece), a single quail egg, a small slice of ham, some veggies, and a few thin slices of meat vs a single skinny beef bone. The bowl was mostly noodles and soup. Additionally, the grilled dishes were pricey and not hot when served. We had the fried chicken, braised beef, braised chicken, fish tofu, and chicken cutlet. The chicken cutlet was good, the rest were unmemorable. The prices for dishes compared to the original Dagu have also increased by 2-3$ per portion, making the entire dining experience pretty mid read more

5 stars for atmosphere 0 star for food. Most disturbing issue was their quality control of the food. The sides that came with the soup were VISIBLY old, stale and smelled rancid, yet they still served them to the customers. Hope management will read this review if they care. read more
