Brutal. This may be the literal worse meal of my life —and I’ve gotten food poisoning before.
The “beef crispy pan-fried noodles” were an oil slick with zero flavor—greasy, limp, and joyless.
The shrimp egg foo yung was dry, burnt, and laughably stingy on shrimp: I counted five in the entire dish, and one patty had none at all.
Yangzhou fried rice? Basic. No wok hei. No aromatics. No point. If you told me it was Minute Rice nuked in a break room, I’d believe you.
I almost never throw food away. I tossed most of this. While paying for it felt like robbery, eating it would’ve felt like punishment.
The only redeeming part of the order was that the canned Cokes were cold. The one star in this review is for their fridge.
A 4.2 rating? It’s not an exaggeration to say that this one restaurant just managing to exist in this town makes me afraid to try any of the other establishments in the area. The bar here must be under the floor.
Maybe the chef was sick today and they made the busboy take over?

Delivery review: we order directly from their website and we usually get the same guy delivering the food super fast. Wonderful service every time and with a huge smile. Food was great too.

Rude staff, unwelcoming, stare at you blankly when you ask questions about the menu, ignore you in the middle of a question to tend to a to go order pickup customer. No smiles ever so ever. Lost my business for good due to the sour attitudes for no reason whatsoever.
Dined in here before for a birthday dinner and things were fine for the most part. But this time it was totally disappointing and disrespectful.

Ordered online for delivery which was very convenient and easy.
Unfortunately the food wasn’t good.
Ordered wor won ton soup, which was ok
Pork chow mein, not so good
Egg rolls that were made with tempura , horrible
Deep fried prawns , good
Broccoli chicken, ok
Chicken fried rice, horrible..
Perhaps it was an off day for the cook but I spent close to hundred dollars on stuff that wasn’t good.

We ordered fried rice and egg foo young. Fried rice was bland. It only have flavor when you eat the shrimp. Egg foo young is not the foo young I know. It just a lot of bean sprouts. Not impressed

The food is tasty, the portions are huge and the prices are relatively lower than many of the places around.
This was the second time for me and I ordered the Singapore Noodles and they were terrific. The flavors were bold and the portion huge.
Also their prices are not so expensive as many of the other lunch places around Livermore downtown. I recommend them and will certainly continue to go there.

The restaurant is beyond my expectations! It is cheap, but definitely not low quality. The arrangement in the store is clean and well organized, and food is delicious! I will definitely go there again!

Over the last couple of months, Yin Yin has supplanted China Garden as my go-to for Livermore Chinese food. The quality of the food ranges from mediocre to fantastic. Our standard order typically includes the Yin Yin Chow Fun, Chicken and Corn Soup, some form of fried rice (either Yang Zhou or Fu Zhou), and a random fourth item.
The Chicken and Corn Soup is pretty standard – it’s on par to China Garden. The Yang Zhou Fried Rice is also pretty standard – the reason why it stands out is because I can’t recall eating it at any East-Bay Chinese restaurants (it’s something I would have ordered years ago from Fortune House in Sacramento or random South Bay Chinese Restaurants). I was pleasantly surprised by the Fu Zhou Fried Rice – there wasn’t a description on their menu system, but Googling it returns a description of gravy on fried rice; the “gravy” ended up being saucy-seafood mixture, which is absolutely delicious. The Yin Yin Chow Fun is executed well – the noodles are neither mushy nor undercooked, flavors are right, and the ingredients (chicken, shrimp, BBQ pork, and broccoli) are spot-on.
The mediocre items are the deep-fried foods. I’ve tried their eggrolls and salt and pepper tofu – in both cases, it’s more fried batter than anything else.
We typically order through GrubHub, but it looks like Yin Yin uses their own internal delivery person. He’s great! GrubHub usually reports a 55-65 minute wait, but the food has always been delivered within 30 minutes. He’s always masked up, and waits (6+ feet away) at the porch until someone gathers the delivery.

My family and I we’ve been eating there or take-out from there since 1984. My mom likes shrimp wonton rice noodle, my brother likes the pork fried rice and I like beef chow fun. Today’s the first time in two years, foods still good
