    Terrible service and food is undercooked. especially the rice. Just all around not great. There are better places in the area for sure.

    I felt this restaurant fell into the trap of trying to do too many things. The menu is expansive…read moreand cuisines covered was Chinese, Vietnamese, Thai and maybe Filipino. This also includes the various types within those countries .... We heard great things about the food and was recommended by someone that knows good Chinese food. As mentioned, the food fell flat... Lacking distinct flavor/execution was lacking. Service was fine and inside was what you would expect for an independent Chinese/Asian restaurant.

    My review is based on takeout. I was In the mood for…read moreChinese food and I wanted to give Ye's Asian Bistro a try. This place is more of Asian fusion style restaurant with a unique variety of cuisines. As I waited for my order I could see that they have a nice dining room with linen tablecloths for dining in. You can also sit outside if the weather is nice. This is a BYOB restaurant. The staff was very nice. It was easy to place my order and I didn't have to wait long for it to be ready. They have a good selection of Chinese, Vietnamese,Thai, and Malaysian dishes, along with some unique offerings like Jellyfish Salad, Sweet n Sour Jellyfish, Pickle with Pork Intestines, Sautéed Pork Liver with Vegetables,Crystal Dumplings, Fish Maw Soup with Crabmeat and a whole lot more of interesting and unique dishes. They offer a separate Chinese menu for authentic dishes, and a menu all in Chinese for those who can read it. Ye's Asian Bidtro also has a nice variety of Soups, Salads along with Vegetarian options. They offer Beef, Chicken, Pork, Lamb, Seafood, Chef Specials, Noodles and Rice Dishes, Casseroles, and Pho. They have Lunch Specials too. I ordered for an Appetizer Steamed Leaf Shape Pork Dumplings. You get 6 in an order, they were very good, I could've stop eating them. For my dinner I placed an order for their Combination General Tso's Chicken with Fried Rice. It was really delicious. The chicken was cooked perfectly and it was tender. The sauce had good flavor and the Stir Fried Broccoli was a nice accompaniment. My bf ordered their Combination Pork Lo Mein with Fried Rice. He really enjoyed his meal. I shared my dumplings with him, and gave him a taste of my General Tso's Chicken. He too thought the food here was very good. There is a large free parking lot in the back. There are a few handicapped parking spaces. I will definitely be returning.

    We came here on Fathers Day when they had a delicious looking buffet; however, we decided to order…read moreoff the menu because I've had Inchin's bookmarked for toooo long not to order the foods exactly what I wanted. We had the tandoori momos, papdi chaat, and paneer tacos for appetizers. The tandoori momos were simple on the inside - just paneer, but the tandoori coating was highly flavorful! The papdi chaat hit the spot on a hot day - you know they're doing it right when the potato to papdi ratio is just perfect. Our favorite was the tacos - the paneer was packed with flavor. It was one of those apps where you take one bite and you're just amazed - crunchy, soft, zesty perfection. For entree we shared the paneer tikka baked in the clay oven. This came hot in a sizzler with onions, green peppers on a bed of charred cabbage (who knew but - woah!). We paired this with some cilantro and tamarind chutney and butter naan - absolutely delightful. The kids also had a cheesy naan with fries (kids meal) which they enjoyed! Lastly, for dessert we had to try one of their unique sweet treats and opt for the date wontons with ice cream. It was a cool concept but not something I'd get again. There are many other desserts on the menu that look great though! Cherry on top of the appetizing food was the kind service. With 3 little ones, I'm always stressed going out to eat at these types of restaurants, but they were very accommodating and welcoming of my family... made my experience that much better. Will definitely be back!

    I just had a very negative experience here with my friends that aligns with the other negative…read morereviews. Their management is, at best, misleading and, at worst, scamming. I don't blame the waitstaff at all, as they are very kind, welcoming, and quick, in my experience. First, the food. The quality is fine, but I always find it a red flag when Asian restaurants are run by non-Asian people and there are no Asians in the crowd. "Authentic Korean" is just entirely not true, but I digress. The wings were quite good but expensive, and some of the menu items are absurd. Over $30 for a simple salmon was high to the point where I couldn't even try it to see if it was worth it. The drinks they have available are only high-end costs at mid end quality. I find a $26 New Jersey Riesling elsewhere more interesting than their $30-$56 selections. The soju and sake are insanely marked up and ridiculously priced. The food also takes quite a while to come out, even when they aren't busy at all. Plus, there's an automatic 20% gratuity charge. This didn't bother me, except for the fact that it is not only applied to food but to karaoke rooms. I found this very misleading. People do not expect to pay a 20% service charge on a room booking. This raised the $160/2 hrs to $192, and they refused to budge on this misleading application of the tip. Today, a group of my friends went to the karaoke room. Yesterday, Friday, May 8th, my friend called and they told him it was $55/hr. Today, it was $80/hr. The strange part is, when we said we weren't expecting the high cost, a man (I'm presuming the manager, but I'm not sure) claimed that no one would ever say that, even though a waitress said just minutes before that it was probably the new guy and she was sorry. Then, the man doubled down and said that yesterday, the charge would have been $55 but today (Saturday) it's $80. This makes even less sense to me because, upon checking afterward, the menu clearly says $55 Monday-Thursday, meaning that Friday would be the same cost as Saturday. So he clearly was lying to our faces that yesterday would have been the lower cost. I tried to verify this on the website, but it's so poorly built and disorganized that I can't even find the karaoke cost. I find this business model very confusing. I have no reason not to believe that lying on the phone + not including information on the website is so that people only choose to book the rooms when already inebriated. I would highly recommend avoiding this place. Support authentic (half the price!!) Korean restaurants instead.

I appreciate that there was a lil something for everyone, as I'm not a wing person like my friends are. I got the miso ramen and really enjoyed it. I also thought the music was great, and it didn't overpower our conversations.

All Blue…read moreChinese Cuisine in Edison serves up authentic Sichuan and Jianghu-style dishes that instantly transported me back home! We ordered the Pickled Pepper Frog with Chicken, Stir Fry Chicken Giblets and Throat and Stew Tofu with Crab Roe. The overall vibe? Pure happiness. The Food Breakdown: Pickled Pepper Frog with Chicken An absolute genius pairing! The bullfrog and chicken are incredibly tender with zero gamey taste. Creatively, it's a 10/10. My only tiny critique is that it leans a bit salty, but it's perfect when paired with white rice. The more you eat, the more addictive it gets! Stew Tofu with Crab Roe You have to get a scoop of this. The golden crab roe sauce perfectly coats the silken tofu. It's savory, sweet, and velvety, which beautifully cuts through the heat of the other spicy dishes. I could honestly down three bowls of rice just mixing it with this sauce. Plus, the portion size is huge and super affordable.
