We love a good dim sum spot, and this place did not disappoint. We went on a Sunday afternoon and were able to find parking, though it's limited and we noticed others struggling to find a spot. Service was great--the staff was quick, attentive, and constantly checking in and clearing tables. Our favorites were the calamari and the fried shrimp balls--both were so delicious! It can be a little pricey, with plates ranging from about $6-$10, but the quality and service made it worth it. We would definitely be back! read more

A solid place to grab Chinese food! Garlic chicken is yummy with mixed veggies. Our kids love the sweet and sour chicken. It's a little strange that they charge $1 per bowl of rice - entrees so not include rice. The service is always prompt and friendly. They are great for takeout or have a lovely restaurant to sit and eat in as well. They are also known for Dim Som on the weekends. read more

Yummy house never fails with its dim sum! I liked ordering from a menu rather than just pointing at stuff on a cart, makes it less overwhelming for me. The dumplings and rolls are always a favorite; the wrappers are soft, gummy, and steamed nicely. I also always love the egg tarts, slightly sweet with a flaky crust. A new favorite surprise was the salt and pepper calamari! I even brought some home for family. I don't know why I don't eat dim sum more, it always hits the spot! read more

We stopped here for dinner on Memorial Day. A lot of local restaurants were closed but YHS was open. We started with some jasmine tea and two appetizers, the egg rolls and salt and pepper calamari. The salt and pepper calamari is delicious! Very meaty and flavorful. I wouldn't get the egg rolls again. They are small and very crispy. I prefer the large ones you usually get from Chinese restaurants. We ordered the XO spicy noodles. They were not spicy at all. Lots of seafood and thick noodles. I ordered the garlic chicken, it had mushrooms and vegetables in it too. They were both ok entrees. The YH in Orlando has a bigger menu and they didn't offer the dish I usually order. The wok sea bass. Our server was attentive but not over friendly or happy. It seemed like they were just there to serve you with zero personality. The restaurant was not very busy at the time we arrived so it was pretty quiet. Parking is out back. There were plenty of spots available. I would return and try new things on the menu. read more

I visited Yummy House on a Saturday with a party of 4. We were seated immediately and promptly given menus and drinks. The ordering process may have been too prompt actually because I was not ready. Too many options and I have a hard time deciding. We all ended up sharing most items. I would not leave without a salt and pepper item. We ordered the salt and pepper shrimp and it was amazing. The other couple we were with was all in on Dim Sum and it looked delicious. And as fast as we ordered and ate, we were paying and out the door. Not really a place for a long social dinner or lunch. read more

Went to YHS China Bistro for the second time. On this Wednesday evening, when we arrived around 7:15 it was busy. We were seated immediately. We ordered tea and appetizers while we decided on dinner. For appetizer we ordered Pan Fried Pork Dumplings which were delicious. For dinner we ordered BBQ Pork Fried Rice, Mongolian Beef and Kung Pao Chicken. The food was delicious and the service was excellent. They have a parking lot in the back of the restaurant. read more

My parents were craving dim sum and this restaurant seemed to have the best reviews. We ordered our dim sum off the menu instead of carts so ordered too much food. The prices are definitely on the high side for what you receive. My family really liked the duck and Chinese broccoli. The baked pork buns were good but barely had any meat. We liked the pineapple buns and were surprised that they were filled. Everything else was pretty standard flavors - nothing to rave about. Service wasn't bad. Our drinks were refilled in a timely manner and dishes were cleared as we finished dishes. read more

Had some amazing Chinese food at Yummy House with a dear friend. Some do the best in the bay! I loved everything we shared from the soup dumplings to the bbq pork. It wasn't too greasy and had really good flavor. Our server was good and even though the dumplings didn't come out on time, they brought them out and they were piping hot. Way worth the wait. Definitely had to let them cool down before eating them. The restaurant was nice and clean and we were sat next to a window which had good lighting for a Sunday lunch. read more

The portions are still good and I like that it's MSG free, but the wow factor is gone. The service was just average and their unwillingness to accommodate allergies (veggie substitutions only available for an additional fee) is a major drawback.

Overall this was the worst experience I have had at any Yummy House. Not sure if new management but service left something to be desired and the food was definitely not up to standard. The salt and pepper calamari was chewy and the honey walnut shrimp barely had any sauce. I was there celebrating my birthday and not one person even wished me a happy birthday and the set up of the tables was not ideal. You failed 15 people that's a lot of word of mouth. So disappointed, have been coming to Yummy house long before this location opened. Don't think you will be my first choice for Chinese food anymore. read more

Ordered takeout - we got the salt and pepper combo (shrimp, scallops, and calamari), bbq fried rice, and Mongolian beef. S&P combo had such a good flavor but doesn't do well as a takeaway since it got soggy quickly. We reheated in the air fryer once we got home and it was still great. Fried rice was exceptional, the cilantro was subtle but made a huge difference. The Mongolian beef was okay, mostly zucchini and onion. Wish there was more beef in the dish! read more

Awful! The gentleman serving us had the worst attitude. We ordered the beef lo mein, orange chicken, and beef fried rice, all disgusting. We told him we did not need to go boxes and he asked why- we kindly told him we did not enjoy the food and his response was "why you order?" I told him it was our first time at the restaurant and he threw his hands up in the air and rolled his eyes. We will not be back, that is for sure. Spend $60 on dinner somewhere else! read more

Great service, and really good food. Large portions too! I was wiht a group of 5, and they had us seated and served very quickly. I ordered the salt and pepper squid appetizer to start with as a share for the table. It was a hit. I ordered the Honey Walnut Shrimp for me and also an order of Garlic Snow Pea Tips. I love them! My dish was excellent with a huge amount of the glazed walnuts I love in this dish. Lots of delicious shrimp too. Shared the snow pea tips with the table, and they were gone in a flash, lol... except for a small amount I brought home for lunch the next day. Can't go wrong with Yummy House! read more

Used gamy chicken for chicken and broccoli and very rude when I had to come back and request another dish. Terribly disappointing..

Was sat for lunch today and sat for ten minutes without any service. Not even water while several woman just stood and stared.

It's honestly always a love-hate relationship. I live across the street so I go often. The food is generally good, but service is always inconsistent. Ordering out is something that we do often too, but the time they say for pick up is half of the times inaccurate. They say 20min, go over and 50min later it's still not ready. We always recognize that a restaurant can be busy, but it's also easy to tell us hey its gonna be an hour before us committing to a meal that they were going to delay significantly. read more

Had to come here after hearing good things about the food. We opted for the Buddha's Delight and Salt & Pepper Calamari. The mixed vegetables were seasoned well and the calamari was done well. I would definitely order the calamari again if I come back. I was surprised to see a good amount cars parked and ready to head right before opening for a weekday. Would love to come back to try the other dishes as well! read more

Definitely has the Hong Kong vibe going on! We started with the Salt and Pepper Calamari...reminded me of tempura rather than the "Italian style" most commonly seen when calamari is on the menu. We quite enjoyed it. Best surprise on the menu was the Beef Chow Fun. For some reason, Chow Fun is not seen on menus down here. Very much a treat! Chow Fun noodles are wide, flat, and kind of transparent. I think they're made from rice flour. Hubster had the Singapore Noodles which are the clear rice noodles in curry sauce. They serve Coke products and their hot tea is a loose leaf oolong! No teabags here! Portions are very generous, so come hungry, share, or plan on leftovers! This location is maybe 1 block north of Kennedy on Dale Mabry so it feels pretty centrally located and close to the airport and I275. We are definitely coming back! read more

Server was honest and nice. The food was just okay. Maybe cause not much of an Asian population there. Didn't digest very well for us. Egg drop soup $12. Not the usual one you get at Chinese restaurants. But it feeds atleast 2 ppl. So for the price quantity was good. Also the yummy chicken is basically orange chicken. read more

Was looking for a spot near the airport, and I'm so glad I found this place. Honestly some of the best dim sum I've had. Each piece was so plump and juicy, and the siu mai was so delicious. I also loved their clams in black bean sauce. Their turnip cake was the best I've ever had - perfectly crisp exterior, soft interior with real chunks of turnip. Orders were taken quickly and food came out fast, but once the place filled up it was so hard to get someone's attention for the check. But overall, fantastic spot. Will definitely be back. read more

We came here after my son dined earlier in the week with work friends. We arrived at 5:15 and were seated right away. Menu is extensive and many choices. We did feel slightly rushed by the server, but ordered anyway. Dishes do not come with rice. There is a $1 upcharge for a small bowl. The servers are not very outgoing, but are efficient. Food came out very fast, but only one plate at a time. There were 4 of us so it was awkward while each person had to wait to get their food. Timing was off. The fried rice was amazing! The hunan beef was great too, but lacked the spiciness that it should have had. The egg rolls and the orange chicken were underwhelming, hence the 1 star deduction from the review. As soon as the plates of food were delivered to our table, the check came. The portions are huge so we got to- go boxes. We felt rushed which was weird as there was no line of people waiting. I would go here for carry out but not to dine in. read more

They can do better with how they react with their customers. read more

The food is amazing. Quality dimsum and my favorite place in Tampa for sure. The service was great, everyone was really sweet and attentive.

Idk which location this was, but it was just ok for me. I got the Seafood Tofu Pot and the Hot & Soup Seafood Soup.I did not get a chance to try the Hot & Soup Soup bc the first was pretty filling. So, the Seafood Tofu Pot. The Tofu was... interesting bc it was pretty empty inside. The calamari within the soup was ok. The scalars were great along with the shrimp. The mushrooms were mushrooms lol there were big things of garlic in there and onions which I didn't care for. The veggie rolls were good though. I just don't think it was for us. Oh and we delivered so cannot rate the service. read more

Still my favorite place for dim sum in the Tampa Bay area. The major update from my last review is that they no longer have carts, and you order dim sum from a menu. The situation now is that your food arrives at the same time, so their challenge now is to pace out the items ordered. Place is busy on the weekend, so the best bet to get a table for dim sum is arrive when they open. Also, there's a great menu besides dim sum, some of my favorite items are the Seafood Tofu Soup and Beef Chow Fun. read more

Double date weekend dim sum brunch. There were a couple of dishes that were ok. The har gao, shu mai, and pineapple buns were decent. The duck was not good. Salt and pepper tofu was dry and bland. Sesame chicken was too sweet/ syrupy. Steamed pork buns had too little filling and the filling was bland. Vegetable noodle rolls tasted of sesame oil and not much else. Had to ask our server multiple times for things like extra menus and hot sauce. Prices were higher than I would like for the quality/ quantity. Probably won't be back. read more

The dim sum at this place used to be very delicious however, over the years the flavor just doesn't give what its supposed to anymore. Items aren't being steamed long enough such as their SHORT RIBS, PORK RIBS & CHICKEN FEET. All of them have been extra chewy and definitely could have been steamed much longer. The SALT AND PEPPER CALAMARI was also lacking flavor. Not sure if the flavor was missing from the batter or if it was missing from the garnish, but whichever it is, the flavor was NOT there. Not only is the food mid at most, the service is horrendous. First of all, it takes forever to be seated and the designated space for waiting is so incredibly small and gets crowded quickly. The last time I was there, we sat at the bar and had the displeasure of being served by Marina. She served our mediocre dim sum with attitude and it was just a distasteful dining experience overall. Do not recommend. Sadly there aren't many dim sum places around so if you're craving, you may very well just have to settle for Yummy House. *big sigh* Unfortunately, I won't be returning unless I'm being forced to (by my family). read more

Our friends moved to Cape Coral, and we met them for lunch recently when we were in Tampa for a wedding. Ms. A has good taste, so I knew she would pick a good spot. I was happy to see that Tampa Magazine rated it Best Chinese Restaurant for 2022, too. the restaurant was close to the Embassy Suites that we stayed at. For our Saturday lunch, we were seated right away. There was a good selection of dim sum. The pieces were good-sized, and Hubby was happy that his favorite, Baked Cha Shu Bao ("Honey Glazed BBQ Pork Buns"), was on the menu. My favorite, Hom Suey Gok ("Fried Sticky Pork Dumplings"), was, too. I have had better Shanghai Style Dumplings. The oyster sauce on the Chinese Broccoli was not as thick as I'm used to. The Shu Mai, Ha Gow, Steamed Rice Rolls with BBQ Pork, and Hong Kong Style Sticky Rice were delicious. The food arrived quickly, and we enjoyed a leisurely meal, even though the place got busier as time went by. Decent-sized parking lot, with additional parking next door. read more

I really enjoyed the food here at yummy house! I'd have given more stars if things had been explained to us (first time eating here) and if there wasn't an upcharge for rice. (What Chinese food restaurant charges for rice??) This is a family style dining restaurant. We ordered 3 dishes not knowing that and had plenty of food to feed our entire family of 6! Noted. Will remember for the next time we visit. The food is amazing! Chicken is super crisp on the outside and flavourful and moist on the inside. Service was good, but we could've used more refills more often as our food had some kick to it. I believe we only received 1 refill, maybe 2 this time. We'll certainly come back despite our disappointment with charging extra for rice. The food is totally worth it! read more
