    L - albino roast pork egg foo young, R - mapo tofu
    Belinda D.

    This is the weirdest Chinese food I've ever gotten. I got the Mapo tofu and the sauce tastes like what I would imagine those la Choy sauces at the grocery store taste like. And there are VEGETABLES in it. Mapo tofu is basically spicy comfort food that has way more sodium than you know what's good for you. It seems like it's for poor people because it's flavored with fermented beans (where soy sauce gets it's taste), has tofu (which coming from an Asian country, it's for when you can't afford meat) and is numbing spicy where you might not be able to eat as much of it and the salt acts as a preservative so you can save food. It was also sweet, like they used sweet and sour sauce in this, or the same base. Not into that. I wanted to eat salty comfort food without having to chew, or really digest for that matter. It al just melts/dissolves. However I expected veggies in the egg foo young. It looks like there's nothing in the patties except egg, onion, and flour. If a restaurant is skimping, they'll at least have bean sprouts in it. But there is nothing. Its like some species of egg foo young that developed on an isolated island without any interaction with anything else so it evolved into something unusual. I guess you could say that the main drag of downtown Selah is like that? This species might have had to adapt to its surroundings where we have this weird albino evolution of egg foo young. Like I don't believe the owners made Chinese food like this originally. It's an adaptation, and it seems very specific to this area. Never had anything like it. It is also the type of place where the fried rice is has no mixins with it. Big portions, but not helpful if you don't like it. The service was good and the place seems clean. If you've been called a picky eater and like very Americanized, very plain Chinese food, you probably will love it on the same level that I don't like it.

    Gluten Free Stir Fried Chicken And Rice Noodle!  Absolutely delicious, great portion, and fresh veggies!!!

    The best Chinese Restaurant in Yakima Valley!!! Family owned and operated. Great sweet and sour sauce, great almond sauce for almond chicken and egg Foo young. Gluten free, and Vegan/Vegetarian options as well!

    We ordered takeout. This was our first time at this place and not impressed. Fried rice is very plain. Just rice and soy sauce. Nothing added to it like egg or veggies. Almond chicken and sweet and sour chicken was ok. I've had way better. Food overall I give a 3/10. We won't be back.

    One of the best Chinese food restaurant in the area.

    We have been there twice and love the food, authentic and homemade. Highly recommend this Chinese restaurant.

    We ordered the House Pork Chop spicy and we all agreed it was otherworldly. They serve great food often but some times they are amazing.

When we arrived, the seating area is full, but we were still greeted warmly. We ordered our meal to go but we were still offered a place to sit in glasses of water while we waited. We both ordered pho. I got the combination pho with everything and my wife ordered the beef pho. She also ordered some pork bao buns, and I ordered soup dumplings. They packaged the pho very well, with the broth, vegetables and meat, and one container and the noodles, some of the extra meat, lines, cilantro, basil, etc. In another container, the servings were huge. We had plenty for another meal the next day. The pho broth was excellent. We did have to heat it up again when we added the noodles and extras, but it was well worth it. The soup dumplings were flavorful and warm and the bao buns had a mild but rich pork filling. This was a real treat while we were on the road.

    Got the iced coffee and pork belly banh mi. Coffee was good, pretty large serving size so worth it,…read morein terms of price. Not too sweet, but definitely sweet enough to cut the bitter taste of the coffee. The coffee itself wasn't too bitter or sour tasting. I'd get that again. The banh mi, the pork belly option is double the price of any other protein. I'm not sure if that works out in the worth it department for me, but the meat proportion in the sandwich is worth it. The veggies seemed pretty fresh, crisp, but no jalapeño in the sandwich. Not sure if that's a regular thing, but I've eaten enough banh mi with jalapeños, so I consider that a necessary ingredient. The bread was toasted pretty heavily, perhaps cooked in the grease of the pork belly? Not sure. I wasn't a huge fan of that, the bread itself was difficult to tell if it was light and springy with a flaky crust, because it was toasted so hard. Either way, the sandwich was eaten, the coffee was gulped down. I'd probably try other things here. Smelled good in there. Service was nice, staff seemed really amicable and they were turning tables as quickly as people were hopping out of their seats.

We got the stone bowl fried rice and blackened salmon with apple slaw.... I wasn't a fan of the fried rice- it was way too salty and kind of gooey/wet? And was an additional $6 for a couple little chunks of chicken in it (kind of ridiculous). So when I read "blackened salmon" I was thinking blackened seasoning or something?-Nope, it was literally just charred black. Had no flavor other than "burnt", but at least it was tender- a glaze or a marinade would have been nice. Had super high expectations after those apps and the salmon seriously fell short.... The apple slaw that came with it was to die for though! flavorful and the perfect combination with the sweetness from the apple, tang from the mango, a bit of spice from the jalapeño, and a touch of acidity- super refreshing on a 90+ degree day! Plan to try some other dishes next time
