    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!

    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.

    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.

    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.

    Chicken and broccoli with pork fried rice 17+13 $30 plus tax and it was just OK.

    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.

    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.

    At last I've found really good Chinese food in Tampa! Authentic flavors and elegance cookery in a bold, modern setting.

    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!

    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!

    Hello! I will be traveling through the Tampa area and am looking to dine at several pushcart-style dim sum restaurants. Does this restaurant CURRENTLY serve lunch with rolling carts? I have read the reviews, but there are different answers.

    Call the restaurant and pose the question to them.

    Do they have Gluten-free options?

    Is dim sum available every day or just weekends?

    Every day at lunchtime

    Can you order dim sum after lunch?

    only up tp 2 pm

    Does anyone pick up the phone at this place? I tried to cancel a reservation that requires you to call in but no one picks up the phone?

    My favorite place when in the mood for Chinese food. I only go to the place in south Tampa, across from the Village Inn near Kennedy.… Read more

    Do they use MSG?

    No they do not

    Do they have dim sum for dinner?

    No dim sum carts for dinner. I believe dim sum service ends at 3.

    Yearly pilgrimage to Beijing House and it was as delicious as always…read more I put in the order at 12 pm online and it said it would be ready at 12:46 pm. They were right on the money, it was ready at 12:47 pm like magic. This time I got the spiced duck instead of the tea duck and I definitely prefer it. My younger son ate a ton so it's a must get. The beef and broccoli and the beef lo mein are both must gets. How do they make the beef so tender? We decided that although the sesame chicken is good, next year we'll try something else. It's fried chicken bites soaked in sauce. My husband liked the spring rolls and wonton soup. We bought an extra side of rice not realizing we'd get rice with the meat dishes so we ended with 3 cartons of rice. I tried the matcha oat milk slush. I love that it's topped with cheese foam. It would be ho hum without. It's on the sweeter side so I definitely need to be in the mood for a sweet drink if I get it again. Parking in the lot is plentiful. It was packed inside so on Christmas I definitely prefer to grab and go. I highly recommend checking this place out.

    Since my last visit, it seems that the service quality has decreased a lot…read more We arrived with my partner when the restaurant was pretty empty. However, we were not seated after 5 minutes of waiting. We ordered dumplings, Dan Dan noodles and pork. The waiting to receive each of them was extremely long. We waited 20 minutes for the dumplings, extra 20 minutes for the pork, and extra 20 minutes for the noodles. It was terrible. The waitress never check on us. When we asked why our order was taking so long, she said she was going to check, but she did not. She just went inside and looked at her phone. The food is still delicious, but the service is terrible.
