Ordered soup dumplings and beef fried rice. It definitely hit the spot and was needed for comfort food! Highly recommend this hidden gem! The service was nice and friendly. Took about 15 minutes for the food to be cooked, which is typically fast, which is a good thing! It was not as busy at all. Believe it will be picked up when it gets busier during the warmer weather or so.

The place is small but tidy. There were a few folks who picked up to-go orders but no one else was there to dine in. We opted to dine in. The menu was varied, prices were good, and the service was very friendly. The restaurant was very accommodating since we had a couple of small kids with us and they can be a little picky. Everything tasted delicious! I hate going from the peninsula to southside, and I wouldn't make a special trip just to eat at YaYa's, but it was very good and I would go again with visitors who are staying on the southside. It was a good experience and excellent food and service.

The last experience we had was absolutely amazing. From the service to the food. All around great…read moreexperience. This time, not so much. My family and I (5 people) came in to celebrate my girlfriend's birthday dinner and there was nobody but us in the restaurant. The first thing I noticed was the server. He was dressed in jeans, hooded sweatshirt, a beanie and had a toothpick in his mouth. A bit out of the ordinary but to each their own for proper attire in what I would deem a upscale-ish restaurant. The real issue was him taking our order, seemed rushed. As we were deliberating and figuring out what we wanted. My girlfriend was talking about the scallion bubble pancakes. He came over and said, "I overheard you said the scallion pancakes, did you want to put in that order?" My girlfriend said no, she wanted everything to come out all at once. He said ok and then we walked off. Next thing we know, the pancakes came out WAY ahead of everything else we ordered. By like 15 minutes at least. When my girlfriend said something about it, the waiter said, he said outright " I never heard her say not to order them, she never said anything, and they are out right now". No apology, no I'll go ahead and fix that...nothing. When we we on the way out, we talked to the owner about the experience and the only thing he mentioned was that, the server was new and it's hard to find good employees because they revolve so quickly. Which wasn't really an answer at all. It was definitely a 180 degree turn from the first experience we had here which was 5 stars all around. I think given the experience, we unfortunately won't be coming back

I'm a stickler for table areas being clean for the safety of customers. The food is absolutely amazing though!

Plenty meat was fairly tender, but again not much favor. Noodles ok. We also ordered fried rice and spicy noodle soup. Again both average. Beverage selection poor for an Asian American restaurant. Service ok, no strong feelings. Place clean. It reminds you of a older local neighborhood Chinese American restaurant just knew. Much better noodles and broth (of many types) at other local area restaurants. People waiting for seats as we left. Don't see hype. Chances of coming back are slim. Weak weak three.

Have an understanding of what's what if you're doing the dim sum since they didn't give you a menu that describes everything. Veryyy busy on the weekends and I don't think they take reservations. There was a line when we arrived on a Sunday afternoon before they even opened! Says a lot. My favorites were the spare ribs, beef stew, a type of taro dish, and the Chinese broccoli. I do wish they had more veggie dishes on the dim sum carts. You fill up fast so choose wisely! Next time would love to either try the lobster, steamed flounder, or roast duck.

The older lady welcomed and greeted us, and walked us to our table. She was a very enthusiastic lady and was very happy to have us dine at her restaurant. I loved her energy! The food we ordered were mostly her recommendations, and they were delicious! I also liked that they had the Churchill China Blue Willow plates. As I looked around the restaurant, every guest seemed to enjoy their food. Overall, we had a great dining experience and I think most of it was because of the lady's energy. The food was delicious. Definitely would love to dine here again the next time I'm in Virginia.
