    1. Pork Egg Roll 15. Hot and Sour Soup 78. Sweet and Sour Chicken S8. Sesame Chicken D1. Chicken with Broccoli

    This was some of the best Chinese food we've had! The prices were very reasonable and the servings were Big. We used Grub Hub for delivery.. also great service and quickness. We received our order very hot and everything was correct.

    Chow mein combo with rice egg roll.

    We had never been here before, but decided to grab kung pao shrimp to take home. It was really good. Glad we stopped.

    When you need Asian and it is close to home this place will suffice, if you do go, the wontons and the crab Rangoon's are great.

    My husband and I finally decided to try this place since the owner of Sushi Xuan recommended it…read more Boy, what a disappointment! First off, we ordered the vegetable egg rolls for an appetizer, I do not recommend them since they are frozen ones. They were tasteless while the interior of these rolls were mushy, though the duck sauce was quite tasty it could not overcome these appetizers. Our entrees came next, my husband asked about the serving size and he was told a plate only fed one person, not true. The plate serves two. Anyway, the Kung Pao Chicken has really good flavor, was spicy and served with a side of steamed white rice. My husband's entree was Orange Chicken and nothing spectacular about it. But what will keep us from ever going back was that as we sat in the restaurant eating I started to smell cigarette smoke. It became more pronounced and I realized they were smoking in the kitchen and had the door open to where we were sitting. With that revelation my husband quickly got us out of there...the cigarette smoking inside the kitchen is a total dealbreaker.

The restaurant is located in a strip mall with great signage. The inside is well spaced with plenty of table and an area where you can watch them make the dumplings. It was cool to watch our dumplings being made (I asked if I could take the pictures). There is an art to making noodles and dumplings and they know here. We ordered a chicken noodle soups, Sichuan Dan Dan noodles, soup dumpling. The Sichuan Dan Dan noodles were very spicy, but a real chili flavoring to the spice, not just heat. The noodles were fresh and not too soft. The chicken soup was excellent and when I added the chili oil, it was excellent! The soup dumplings were so delicious, not too think, filled well, and very tasty. This is a real gem of a place with authentic noodles and dumplings with excellent, friendly service. If we pass through again we will make it a point to stop in for a Tasty dinner! Thank you!!

It wasn't busy when we arrived, and you ring a bell at the counter for service. The attendant was multitasking and very quick with the interaction, so the service felt a little impersonal and slightly dismissive, but she was never rude. The food, however, was phenomenal. The noodles were incredibly flavorful and perfectly prepared. The ramen was also very tasty, although the portion was slightly smaller than what I've had at other ramen restaurants. Prices were a little on the higher side, but the quality was definitely there. Overall, the food made the visit worthwhile, and I'd absolutely come back for the noodles.

The food was promised in 8 to 10 minutes and was ready easily in that time. I ordered Crab Rangoon, a favorite of my wife, and pork fried noodles. The Crab Rangoon is some of the best in Albuquerque. I could actually taste the crab. Most I've had here just taste of cream cheese, so whatever they do at YNH, they should continue! The pork fried noodles, on the other hand, were nothing special. The dish tasted of Chinese Five Spice which includes clove and is not a favorite flavor for me. My wife didn't mind so much, so this is certainly a personal issue. Add a star if you are ok with the seasoning. We will certainly be back for the Rangoon and to try other menu options.

The wait staff was nice to give us another one cuz we sent it back, but it came back again with the same smell so we were worried but it tasted fine and we didn't get sick hahahaha. Wouldn't order it again tho because of the smell. steam chicken feet 5/5: nicely steamed with a spicy kick. steamed egg yolk bun 4/5: this is the main reason we come here! love the topping on the bun and the flavors of the steamed egg yolk. Normally it's a bit runnier which would make it a 5 but it was a bit oversteamed today. IT Dim Sum is a great choice if you're craving dim sum in the ABQ area. Haven't found another spot to beat it yet so it's our go to spot when we're in town!

Short menu for dimsum but very good! We ordered several items including the crispy shrimp (good but need to drain oil before putting on plate plate. Pork ribs savory/slightly sweet. Didn't understand mushroom balls as believe it was shredded meat?? If it was good either way! Great sauce that was both savory and slightly sweet also. Ordered seaweed salad (standard), pork congee excellent! Small pieces of pork but the century egg and seasoning was perfect in saltiness, salt/pepper squid was biggest disappointment -batter wasn't as light and tasted more dough. Server was good and they were able to split the check! Will definatly go back just wish that ALL chinese places would offer 1/2 size veggies as they may sell more. GO! If you enjoy tapas or small sized plates that allow you to eat a variety without killing your wallet, this is it. Saw the most e,tensile dimsum selections than other menus ive viewed.
