    First time getting food from Yen Ching Express. My daughter got Orange Chicken and I got Mongolian Chicken and an egg roll. Generous portion and really good flavor. I got extra chicken in mine and that was with the upcharge. We will definitely be back, as I'm a pretty picky eater when it comes to Chinese cuisine.

    Great take-out Chinese food with lots of gluten free options! My go-to faves are combo fried rice and Mongolian beef but this time I got king pao chicken and chicken fried rice. My non-GF husband also likes their General Tso’s chicken and sweet and sour chicken. We frequently order 3 entrees for the 2 of us (bc of wanting the GF fried rice) which makes for tons of leftovers - dinner portions are quite generous; even without the extra, there would be plenty left for lunch the next day.

    Was a customer of Yen Ching, on Good Hope, years ago and was sad to see it go. Finally tried YC Express and ordered some of my past favorites - Ming's Beef, Lo Mein, and Hot & Sour Soup. Outstanding! Not only did they bring back memories, the flavors tripped my taste buds. Will definitely be a return customer.

    This could honestly be the worst Chinese food that I've ever had in my entire life. And yes we're talking about American Chinese food. I got the general general tso's chicken. It had no flavor at all. It was soupy in other words really thin no sense of Ginger flavor or honestly any flavor other than oyster sauce. For some reason they put carrots onions and green pepper in it and I have no idea why. General Tso's chicken although not being traditional actual Chinese is a recipe by a famous Chinese chef and I encourage you to look it up on your favorite search engine. It's deep fried chicken with a rich barbecue-ish sauce and broccoli. I've never seen a version with carrots and the thing with putting carrots in it is you need to saute those before you put everything else in the wok because as you know it takes only a few seconds to stir everything up in the walk and combine the ingredients. I asked for my extra spicy so what they did was added dried red peppers cut into large pieces. Okay here's the problem with that... The heat comes from the seeds and pith inside the pepper. when you dry them out and then cut them up all the seeds and the hot stuff ends up on your counter that you probably just throw on the floor for the rats to eat. Even if there's any spice left in the pepper or if we're even lucky some flavor the problem is it's dehydrated and again you would need to reconstitute that prior to throwing it in the wok for 30 seconds. I could make a better general Tso's chicken in my college dorm room when I was 18 years old. This place is absolut pathetic overpriced garbage. Again the worst American Chinese food that I've ever had in my life. And don't even get me started on actual Chinese food because this place wouldn't even be in the running... Oh crap and before I go I got to mention the egg roll. I've never seen a smaller more shriveled wet egg roll in my life. There were no fillings. It was an absolute embarrassment to be honest. And they give you some type of sauce it's red I'm not sure if it's supposed to be plum sauce but it certainly is not and does not taste like plum sauce. Again it's some BS that they pour out of a gallon container into little cups which is loaded with chemicals and additives and preservatives. real plum sauce is not hard to make. At the end of the day no filling, no flavors in either the entree or the egg roll and for over $20 that is absolutely insane. 0 out of 100 and will never ever ever go here again.
