    Wonton soup
    Jillian P.

    Solid flavors, high prices. They aren't cheap, but theirs noodles are well seasoned and have a good amount of protein, and their wonton soup is what we crave whenever we are feeling under the weather. I called in an order on a weeknight around 5pm and the order was ready for pickup within 20 minutes. We had the wonton soup to start, followed by the Singapore noodles and szeschuan beef. An easy weeknight meal when you don't want to cook.

    This was my first time at Andy and Yu's, and I must say I was impressed and pleasantly suprised! The ambiance is large and open but also very cozy and intimate. The restaurant is a great place for anything from a date night, taking the kids out, business dinners, or going out with friends or family. I loved how the food was not overly salty or greasy. The vegetables tasted very fresh and flavorful. The asparagus was perfectly crunchy. I really loved the Hong Kong style noodles, and I would recommend them. Again, I'm not a big mushroom fan but omg these ones were so plump and juicy and delicious! The kung pao chicken was good, although I could have stood for a bit more punch in sauce or spice. I loved the fluffy fried rice and even though it was the vegetarian option, I found it to be extremely satisfying and rich. Not pictured is one of the highlights for me - the sizzling rice soup. Each bowl came with a hearty amount of chicken and sizzling rice and vegetables - I would highly recommend this dish. The service was extremely efficient, warm and polite. Thanks Andy and Yu's for a great dinner out with my mom :)

    Salt and pepper calimari
    Jennifer C.

    Just based on food, this is a 3.5 star but the ambiance and service was definitely good and upscale. That said, the food is what will either convince me to come back or not and the meal, while enjoyable, wasn't good enough value to bring me back. Got the salt and pepper calamari, walnut prawns, string beans, and beef chow fun. Calimari and walnut prawns were the best items of the meal and while green beans were a generous portion and the chow fun noodles were fresh, both lacked the layered flavor I want with my food.

    Something resembling & tasting like more of a stir fry chicken
    Linda E.

    We've been regular customers here for years always ordering our favorite General Tso's chicken for its amazing flavor. Tonight we ordered the same and were incredibly disappointed when we received something that looked like stir fry chicken instead of the authentic recipe. We questioned the hostess and she said they don't make it that way any longer. Truth in advertising should be enough for them to rename whatever it is they are serving in place of Tso's chicken.

    Chicken Chow Mein
    Sara A.

    Service was good we were sat pretty quick with no wait. They were very friendly and food came out pretty quick. It was a bit busy but not loud which was nice. I ordered the orange peel beef, chicken chow mein and spicy prawns. The orange beef was ok too much breading on the beef and couldn't really taste much of the beef. Would not get this again. The spicy prawns were good they were crispy good flavor they were just not spicy at all. That's my only complain would deff get it again. The chow mein was ok felt like it was missing flavor. But it had a good amount of chicken in it. The portions are pretty good size had tons of left overs. I also ordered a lychee martini it was good and refreshing a little too sweet for me but had a good balance. Parking can be hit or miss with the parking lot in the rear of the restaurant.

    Peking duck
    Lily S.

    This place is just wonderful for banquets and special events. The staff is terrific, and the food is great. We recently ordered take-out for just a regular weeknight. The food was very satisfying... What we ordered: + Beef with orange flavor - this was very good. The beef was tender and had a slight sweet flavor. + Fried rice - what can it say, it was typical fried rice + Garlic noodles - good, but could have been a little more garlicky + Green bean - nice flavor and still crunchy + Peking duck - tasted good, but it didn't have the Peking duck skin. Came with Chinese tortillas, scallions, and plumb sauce. Overall, the food didn't blow me away, but still very good and satisfying.

    Great atmosphere! Excellent customer service! Like the cleanliness. Walnut prawns were good. I ate the Walnut prawns here before. They were consistently good.

    Cream Cheese Rangoons
    Rachelle C.

    Really enjoyed the service at Andy & Yu's! The staff were all very friendly and welcoming. You can tell they've established relationships with those that regularly come in. A nice restaurant that can be booked for private events with options indoor and outdoor. Could be a good choice for a large party indoors but not completely private as they offer room dividers shared with other diners. Unfortunately the food did not deliver on what we were hoping for.. The cream cheese rangoons were very salty and a small portion. The Crispy Chicken was not crispy at all since they are smothered in a sauce. I was thrown off by the sauce because the menu doesnt mention anything about a sauce- if I could guess it would be a lemon or orange chicken? Also very salty.. The honey walnut prawns tasted very strange.. lots of mayo and maybe even a hint of wasabi. We only ate a few pieces. The breading was also mushy.

These were the dishes we tried: - Firecracker Chicken: it was deep fried chicken breast chunks tossed with spicy Sichuan peppercorns and dried chilies. Despite using chicken breast, the chunks were surprisingly tender and didn't feel dry at all. The spicy, numbing flavor really came through, but I felt like the dish was severely under salted. I think just a little more salt would've elevated the flavor completely. Also this dish wasn't spicy at all to us even though we were forewarned that it was gonna be spicy. - Spicy Basil Chicken: this dish had a flavor profile that reminded me of Thai style Basil Chicken Stir Fry, but I thought the Thai stir fry version was far superior. The flavor wasn't bad though, and what really impressed me was the chicken. The slices were so soft and tender that I couldn't believe I was eating chicken. The texture almost reminded me of fish cake, it was that tender. However, I did think the dish was a little unbalanced, with the vegetables taking up a much larger portion of the dish than the chicken. And I did think that the bell peppers were undercooked. - The House Special Chow Mein was fantastic. The flavor was smoky, savory, and slightly sweet, creating a really nice combo of flavors. The noodles were also nice and chewy and had a great bounce to them. I loved all the different toppings that came with it too, and there was also Bok Choy mixed in for some vegetables. The portion was pretty generous as well. Overall, the service was amazing. The older couple, who I assume were the owners, seemed to do pretty much everything themselves. They took our order, brought out the food, and checked on us throughout the meal. They were very hospitable and nice. The ambience was just okay... The restaurant felt a little cramped and was somewhat dark. One thing I really didn't like, though, was that the kitchen was open and right next to the dining area. I felt like all the cooking smoke and smells were drifting directly into the dining area, which wasn't particularly pleasant while we were eating.

Convenient televisions on two different sides where all the workers were casually watching, and quite the chatter in the kitchen where they're all watching the World Cup. That doesn't really affect service however as they're quite attentive when called for. We ordered the salted fish and chicken fried rice, and the medium bbq platter with char sound soy sauce chicken. All very delicious! The only thing is that they can bit on the pricier side with $20 for the fried rice and $30 for the bbq plate.
