Decided to give the asian restaurant a spin . Was able to get seated quickly since they had open tables, but you can make a reservation for busier times. Staff and server were very nice, attentive and on point answering menu questions, bringing food and drink and seeing to any needs we had. Ordered a Tsing Tao beer, appetizers of wontons and potstickers, and an order of Pork Bulgolgi that came with white rice. Pot stickers were crisp, with a pork filling, very top notch flavor. Wontons were slso crisp. And flavorful with their filling. The bulgolgi was excellent, with a good blend of vegetables and meat, combined with a tasty sauce that paired with the rice nicely. Its a casino restaurant, so its got some of the hard rock decor, plenty of open space and tables. read more

This one will be quick -- The food was good, but the service was non existent. My server tried blaming her colleague at the start for being busy, and then completely ghosted me until i was ready for the bill. i was expecting lean chicken for the teriyaki, but instead i got something on par with panda express. It was fine, but they could make the menu more descriptive. read more

Before offering a review, I wanted to do at least a little research on shrimp preparation. I generally enjoy the food here, but I came in two nights ago and used my comp points to order the Lightly Crispy Walnut Shrimp. What I got were six shrimp for $24 that were not de-veined. Keep in mind that these aren't actually veins, but two inch long, thick and, tough digestive tracts that don't break without a noticeable effort. I expect shrimp to be relatively easy to eat, but in this case, I found the "veins" either wrapped around my tongue or firmly stuck between my teeth. These ongoing battles thoroughly ruined my meal. Having to fight them on one front, while wondering what the shrimp's last meal might've been on another front is more than I should have to contemplate while eating. The "research" I did before posting was simply to find out if it's generally good practice to "de-vein" shrimp before cooking them, and the overwhelming consensus is that, yes, de-vein them so as not to disgust your diners. Order at your own risk - there's almost nothing worse than a disappointing meal. read more

Food was pretty tasty. Fast, quick, fresh. The tossed noodles were my favorite- we got chicken veg chow mein & garlic noodles. The duck was crispy like my dad likes. Shrimp egg rolls were fire!

It had been a while since my last visit, but this place at Hard Rock still delivers. We were seated almost immediately after arriving. We placed our order, and the food arrived promptly and exactly as requested. Our server was excellent. Very fast, efficient, and checked on us throughout the meal to make sure everything was okay. We don't visit this casino too often, but we will definitely consider stopping back in next time we are here! read more

Had lunch here today and food was ok.. I wanted to try new things here and honestly I should've stuck with my original orders lol. The restaurant is a good size with plenty of seating. Service is always nice and friendly. We had the chicken with scallion special, chicken chow mein, beef stir fry, chicken lettuce wrap and my son ordered a teriyaki chicken rice plate. The chicken scallion was ok. The chow mein was good. The beef stir fry was on the saucy dry side. I know sounds weird but it really was saucy but the beef was dry like beef jerky almost dry lol. The lettuce wrap was ok. My son's teriyaki chicken rice plate looks like sesame chicken rice plate instead. Overall I think I would stick with my usual .. which is beef chow fun and salt n pepper shrimp or walnut shrimp next time. read more

YOUYU Noodle Bar - Opens at 11am on Friday - Asian Fusion Near Me - Wheatland, California

Youyu Noodle Bar is located inside Hard Rock Sacramento at Fire Mountain (otherwise known as Wheatland, CA). Ambiance is dim, cozy, and inviting. Staff are friendly and provide good service. We've dined at Youyu a few times. The food ranges from decent to good but doesn't compare well against Chinese Dim Sum Restaurants in Sacramento. Still, I like having this restaurant option at the casino and will come back for their sweet and sour chicken alone because they use dark meat pieces - they're salted, fried to perfection, and the sweet and sour sauce is superbly balanced! read more

The only time I've been able to try the food here is to redeem my free bow of pho/ramen. The pho is decent for being free, but it's definitely better than the ramen. Every time Ive tried to eat here for it's been too busy or closed. I did order a beef chow fun to go and it was disappointing for being $19! The noodles were too soft. Maybe one day I'd get to try their other food. read more

I almost didn't want to go here, but I wasn't going to pay $60 for the buffet. My body can't take that kind of eating any longer. Not after cancer and all those other surgeries I put my body through. However, I was actually pleasantly surprised by the quality of the food we ordered. My wife had the Tonkotsu Ramen and I had the Pad Thai. Absolutely no regrets. The serving size was just right if bot a bit much for my appetite but could not leave any of that noodle goodness on my plate. I burped a good burp and knew I was done...and content. However, just like the games, you somehow think..."just a bit more..." then I'll stop. It wasn't easy. That's what you get when you eat the good food at this casino. Need I say more? read more

Tried Youyo recently and was pleasantly surprised with the variety of flavors. The beef broccoli was packed with flavor and had that perfect balance of savory and tender beef. The walnut shrimp stood out with its nice sweetness that wasn't overpowering, making it a great dish to share. I also really enjoyed the spare rib, which was cooked perfectly--tender and full of flavor. The chicken feet leaned a little sour for my taste, but it might be enjoyable if you like a tangier profile but i'm pretty sure it might have been bad. Thank you to our server, for switching it out for us though. On the other hand, the Hainanese chicken was excellent, especially paired with the ginger sauce that really brought out its flavors. Besides the food, the restaurant provided a very cozy and relaxed feel to it that made our dining experience enjoyable. read more

Found this place inside of the Hard Rock. Kind of an interesting mesh of asian food. Some Chinese, some Vietnamese, and some sushi thrown In. The roast duck was actually pretty good, the noodle soup, the broth was good, the noodles were supposed to be egg noodles but definitely didnt look like it. All in all, not too bad. Just an interesting mix of foods. read more

Yummy, yummy, yummy get in my tummy. We went to a concert a Toyota Amphitheater down the street and were hungry for some noodles afterwards and decided to give YOUYU Noodle Bar a try. The casino was so busy and we did not have a reservation so we decided it might be worth the wait to sit at the bar. Glad we made that decision because after 30 minutes or so wait, we were seated at the bar. We started with a couple appetizers, and then got pho and another noodle soup. The service was great. This is our new after concert spot. The bar was great, but we'd like to make a reservation in the future, and sit at a table. read more

While visiting the Hard Rock Casino in Wheatland, we decided on dinner at YouYu Noodle Bar. This is actually a follow-up to a recent post where I was not pleased with a to-go order, but they have certainly made up for it this time around, and I dined in this time. Service was quick, and they had a nice selection of appetizers, Entrees, including Noodles and Rice bowl selections. We selected the Roast Duck and Broccoli Beef entrees. The roast duck was very fresh, and it was good, but I wish they provided a duck sauce to give it a little more flavor. The broccoli and beef was very good, with great flavor, the beef was tender, and the broccoli was very fresh. I was watching the large noodle bowls being served and the dim sum and now I like to try that on my next visit. It's a nice place to take a break from gambling, especially if you're pretty hungry, because the servings are pretty good. The service is great, and a very attentive manager, Nicholas is always making sure the customers are happy. read more

They should fire their chef. We ordered wonton soup, it didn't taste like wonton at all same with pork bulgogi, it taste so bad , pork spareribs dimsum have an after taste. read more

We've been here a handful of times late night after the A1 Combat fights. I recommend making a reservation on Open Table. Regardless if it's packed, which it usually is, or empty- the staff all seem to love their job! They are friendly and have an energetic mood. Theres a busser in particular who has such good energy every time we see him - playful with the other staff and genuinely happy. The restaurant itself is beautifully decorated and has an up-scale Chinese vibe. The red accent lighting and brightly colored rugs complement the ambiance nicely. The food is always fresh, hot, and flavorful! Some of our favorite dishes are: Szechuan Green Beans - helllla flavorful with a little bit of that tongue-numbing heat Pad Kra Pao (Ground Chicken Basil Stir Fry) - the chicken is chunky ground pieces so it's meatier than other places. And love that it's loaded with veggies and tiny cut green beans. It comes with a side of rice too! Steamed Pork Buns - comes with 3 per order but they are pretty big! Super soft and fluffy and has a generous amount of bbq pork inside. The pork is meaty, not fatty and saucy to soak into the bun. Black Pepper Beef Tenderloin- good portion of beef for 2 people with lots of bell peppers and onions to add to the volume of the dish. The black pepper sauce is delicious, has lots of garlic pieces mixed in. Really good on top of the complimentary rice to soak it up. Pork potstickers- pan fried and taste like they are made in-house. Appreciate that it comes with 6 pieces so that there's enough to go around. The dipping sauce is good too, not your average soy sauce. The meat itself taste high quality and really tender. I only had one piece that was a little chewy. Also realllly like their chili paste that's on the table- it's Smokey and umami without too much heat. It's great on errrythang! read more

We ate here twice and in both times service was great, the servers were awesome, attentive and friendly, but their food weren't the best. It is a nice cozy spot sit and eat. I just wish the food was better. The pork fried rice looks like it was just mixed together and not tossed in a pan. The duck was dry. It may have been sitting out since the morning. Green beans were overly salty. The pad Thai noodles were way too sticky to each other. The best things were the chicken feet and hot & sour soup. read more

Went to Stripper Fest in Yuba City then went to Hard Rock Cafe since it was close. Ambiance Bright colors, very clean. Customer Service It was ok. Food Seafood with vegetables. Fresh vegetables but no flavor sent it back. I rarely do this. It was not good. Substituted Kung Pao chicken which was very good, crisp bell pepper. Vegetable Fried Rice It was ok, a bit bland. The chefs need to taste their food or follow the recipes. They have no pride in their craft. Should have ordered a hamburger at Hard Rock Cafe. read more

Every time I come here, the line is an hour long. Today their excuses they only have one server and they're on a limited menu and the line is an hour along with about 30 people waiting. How is this possible and how do they manage to stay in business. I've been here at least three times and I have not been able to sit down one time I was able to order to go and ate my food at the slot machine. This is so unacceptable. I am so disappointed this is not how Hard Rock should run a restaurant. read more

We had the opportunity to dine at Youyu after a show at Hard Rock Live. I loved that the restaurant is open late enough for a sit down dinner after a concert. We were promptly seated & greeted by our server Victoria. Victoria got us drinks and never once did we have an empty glass, she was prompt to fill our glasses before we got completely out. We placed orders for appetizers while we looked over the menu. Our appetizers came out quickly and were delicious. Victoria suggested the szechuan Spicy dumplings. They were delicious solid 8/10 the sauce was so good. We also got steamed pork buns, great flavor the texture was great and we got veggie spring rolls - delicious perfect amount of crisp, the exterior was flakes and crispy. All were great. We opted in to a few different dishes to try including the orange chicken, chicken and vegetable chow mein, beef with broccoli and honey walnut shrimp which also came with jasmine rice. My spouse devoured the orange chicken. It was the perfect amount of crisp and the flavor was on par. Though it was plain steamed rice it was just what I was craving, cooked to perfection. Honey walnut shrimp was delicious the sauce was delicious. The beef broccoli has some mushrooms carrots and green onions in it but the flavor was amazing. Everything we had was delicious. And if you have room for dessert the Ube Cheesecake was to die for. Great food and even better service! read more

This place looks really nice. We didn't eat inside, but I only stopped by to try the coconut drink they had. I had seen someone playing on the casino floor with it and asked where she got it. The lady who took my order seemed nice, but she was kind of grumpy and rude. There was a coconut drink behind her with someone else's takeout order. She turned around behind her and tried to give it to me. I told her no, that's someone else's order. Give me a fresh one. She told me it's the same thing. I told her no, it's not. Like, really? After a few minutes, she came out with mine. When she handed it to me it was nice and cold. The drink was super refreshing. I was afraid it would get cold right away, but it was still nice and cold when we went back to the room. There, I was able to relax and eat the coconut inside. * Also, fyi for any restaurant here the charge you a $1.50 takeout fee. With the fee, my drink ended up being $11 and some change. Well worth it, but I wanted to give you a head's up. read more

Always a solid choice while at HRCS. We usually book on open table to skip the line. We always get the Mongolian beef which is a solid choice. The basil ground chicken is delicious as well. They come with rice which is nice and don't forget the bbq pork buns, just make sure you take the paper off the bottom. It blends in and ate the whole paper once, I was at the point of no return. Nice interior and it's not too loud being a casino and all. read more

It was kind of bad. Service was good, bless their hearts. Noodle bar had a combo of Chinese, Vietnamese, Thai, and dim sum. We ordered the pad Thai, Mongolian beef, and hot sour soup. It was kind of rough. Pad Thai had stuff that didn't traditionally belong it in. The Mongolian beef tasted like a jar of olives. Maybe we ordered wrong but it wasn't good. read more

Decent food, decent service, inside of a casino- ambiance is the way I would describe YouYu Noodle Bar. We wanted to go to the Hard Rock Cafe but the wait was 90 minutes. Saw a nice crowd inside YouYu and decided to give it a try. I ordered the Shrimp Fried Rice, Orange Chicken, fried dumplings, that came with a good sauce. To be honest, it tasted like Panda Express. Fast food cuisine inside of a casino. Nothing special to write about. Just decent food because I was hungry. The service was not bad, but again, nothing to write about. read more

Was at the casino and remembered I hadn't eaten since breakfast and the lunch crowd was already gone. Appreciated we were sat at a table, even if it was a little weird. Staff is very nice and made good recommendations. We had the shrimp and scallop dumplings off of the dim sum menu. So good! Also had the beef pho. It was nice they were able to split the one order into 2 bowls. The one order was huge! Broth was good. Took dessert home - matcha crepe cake. I didn't like it very much but my companion did.

YOUYU Noodle Bar - Menu on July 5, 2024 - Asian Fusion Near Me - Wheatland, California

Probably one of the best Chinese food close by Marysville and Yuba City. This place can be busy during any events at the Casino so keep in mind that there can be a waiting time not intensive but less than 30 minutes. The service has not been an issue for the past visit My partner and I have come, and the servers know what to recommend and share if there are any special appetizers to try. Our usual order always consists of the Chow fun noodles, salt & pepper shrimp, Xion long bao, and chili oil with wontons. This place can definitely improve its chili oil with more flavor that's the main reason I am giving it a 4/5 the food does not lack flavor and comes in hot, and fresh. We enjoy coming to Youyu probably is better compared to P. F Chain read more

Ate here tonight for dinner with my boyfriend; the service was pretty quick. The restaurant felt really chill considering you can still see the casino floor and hear the music/games going. We ordered the orange chicken and didn't realize it came with rice but that's nice to know for future orders! We also ordered the bbq pork fried rice, wonton soup, and shu mai. The food was delicious, my favorite was the shu mai and my boyfriend's favorite was the orange chicken! I ordered a sprite but unfortunately it just tasted like carbonated water, however our waitress was attentive and quick at refilling our waters!

Came here to try Youyu as well live close and never had tried it. Service was great and restaurant itself was clean and nice, but food was very bad. We had the vegetable spring rolls. They were decent but $12 for 3 is a little steep on price. We also got the Szechuan green beans. They would have been great if they weren't so salty it almost hurts your mouth (granted, I enjoyed the most). We then got pork fried rice, orange chicken and general tao chicken. Fried rice was kinda wet and again salty. The chickens pretty much tasted the same and the texture was bizarre. It was chewy and didn't look like fresh white or brown meat for that matter. Very odd. It was very appealing to the eye, but for $100 - we left all the leftovers (which was about 75% of the food) and didn't take any home. Disappointing. read more

I don't usually write bad reviews, but I was very disappointed by the food at our visit. I just want to preface by saying that my review of the restaurant has nothing to do with my experience at the casino. Starting with the positive, the ambiance was nice and i enjoyed the restaurant setting. We also had good service which is always a plus. For the food, the only things I enjoyed were the pot stickers and spring rolls. I tried every plate that you see pictured here and I disliked everything else. There was absolutely no taste, the rice was not edible for me as it didn't even taste like rice, and the duck ramen soup had a gross taste. My shrimp pad Thai was the worst pad Thai that I have ever tasted and I've had a large variety of pad Thais. I am really disappointed and wish that we tried one or the other restaurants at the casino. Will I be back to this restaurant? Absolutely not. read more
