    It was our first time trying Yu by Sijie, and we had such a great experience! The restaurant is beautiful, elegant, and has a really inviting atmosphere. They also have a huge selection of dishes to choose from, which makes it hard to decide what to order! Our favorite was definitely the matcha and pistachio xiaolongbao -- such a unique and delicious combination! I've never had anything like it anywhere else. Definitely looking forward to coming back soon to try more dishes!

    Yu By Sijie is an amazing and very different Chinese Restaurant located in Summerlin in Tivoli Village. Some things like the vinegar beef cubes come out on a sizzling skillet. Some things like some sort of breaded pork come out in a cloud of dry ice. The soup dumplings (chicken) I can say are amazing. The spicy boiling fish is spicy and does taste like real Szechwan food. The dining areas are decorated nicely. They have a few traditional tables but most of the seating are booths. On one side of most of the booths there are fish-less fish tanks. If Yelp had an alternate rating for one month NEW RESTAURANT I would have picked that as my rating because - Ordering here is the biggest problem. They give you a tablet to place your order. NONE OF THE FOOD HAS DESCRIPTIONS. And some of the menu items are in Chinese. THAT IS A MAJOR PROBLEM. They do have servers that try to be helpful but they listen and just thank you for pointing out the errors. I usually judge a restaurant on the food and for what I tried so far I would give five stars for the food (soup dumplings, spicy boiling fish, red chili pepper stir fry chicken, sweet garlic eggplant), and a very nice bag to bring home the leftovers). At the time of my visit this restaurant has been open about three weeks and they need to make ordering off the tablet more user friendly. The FOOD seems to be FIVE STARS but ordering is hairy here. (see photo for example) ROUGH Gem

    The food itself was very high quality and flavorful, I love that you can literally watch them make your food through the glass too! The ambiance, presentation, all make this spot feel really like a higher end spot without the craziest prices BUT I would love to see more of an service aspect to make the experience whole (ordering is on ipad and it wasn't always easy to get someone's attention if we needed anything)

    This new restaurant at Tivoli Village had really great reviews, so I was excited to try it. The restaurant itself is absolutely beautiful, but unfortunately, that's where the experience took a deep dive. When we arrived, we entered our phone number into a tablet to join the waitlist and were directed to a waiting area with tables and uncomfortable seating. Then employees started setting the table which was confusing because we had been told it was only a waiting area. We decided to just stay there since they already set the table even though it was a waiting area . We were handed another tablet to place our own order with very little explanation. The whole process felt confusing and impersonal because we barely interacted with anyone. For the prices they charge, I expected much better service and a more welcoming dining experience. The food we tried was okay, but it wasn't enough to make up for the confusing setup, lack of service, and expensive bill. I'm honestly not sure I'll be back. As I'm writing this review, I realized that I got a text that I am now being removed from the waiting list. Haha we went yesterday. They definitely need to get their stuff together because we really didn't need to input our name on the tablet.

    My cousin texted me in the middle of the night to tell me about this place and that they were in their soft opening. Coming in, this place took me by surprise. It's huge inside and gorgeous. They have an open kitchen, multiple tables, booths, and lots of high chairs for kiddos. Between each booth are aquariums (currently not filled with fish?). Love that they have their sauces labeled. They even provide a kids plate for your little ones. You scan your phone to order. I will say wifi isn't the best in this area, so it took some time. We ordered the crispy quinoa prawns, glass noodles with crab meat, siu mai, half a Peking duck (this comes with the pancakes, cucumbers, scallions, sauces, and these sweet cubes in the middle. We accidentally ordered extra thinking the duck came alone since each side was listed). For a soft opening, service was pretty speedy and everyone was so helpful on what to order. Can't wait to introduce this place to the rest of the fam and try the rest of their menu

    We had a wonderful dinner at Yu by Siijie, a new Chinese restaurant in Tivoli Village. Every dish we ordered was absolutely delicious, beautifully prepared, and packed with flavor. We enjoyed the Half Peking Duck ($55), Gan Ban String Beans, Chef Special Sweet & Sour Pork (great presentation with dry ice), and the Spicy Beef Noodle Soup. The portions were generous enough to share and enjoy together. The Peking duck was especially fantastic - it com a with all the sides and the traditional crepes, and the beef noodle soup had the perfect amount of spice and richness. All of the food was fresh, flavorful, and clearly prepared with care. We loved being able to share several dishes and experience different flavors throughout the meal. The service was wonderful and attentive and although we just had water, they refilled our glasses multiple times throughout the meal. Yu by Siijie is definitely a place we'll be coming back to! If you're in Las Vegas and love authentic, flavorful Chinese cuisine, I highly recommend giving them a try. Plus locals don't have to deal with Chinatown or Strip traffic.

    Great spot for good food, nice decor and easy parking! Enjoyed our early lunch at Yu By Sijie. Order everything off the device they provide and the goodies arrive! Sort of like Dim Sum but without the cart + larger serving sizes. We enjoyed the duck, the fried rice, green beans - actually everything! Will be back!

    I was happy to find Yu by Sijie pop up, offering authentic Sichuan cuisine and open late. It is still their beginning stages at the soft opening, so the employees are still training and getting a rhythm. The interior of the restaurant if well done. The booths for 4 people have aquariums at the end of the table which was unique and fun. They also had booths that seemed quite large, not sure how many they could seat, but seems like a great opportunity for a larger family/group to be able to gather and share all the dishes. Ordered from an iPad which was impersonal and not aligned with my idea of a quality dining experience, or maybe it can be a secondary option, to add dishes or sides easily, but not for the primary ordering. I had asked the waitress for recommendations and she didn't seem knowledgeable about the type of cuisine or even preferences. Their house oil is delicious, and standard at every table, as well as the other basics. I believe dining is an entire experience, and while the food was very good, I think they need to spend time and be particular in hiring/training those that want to share the history of the food and be a part of the experience. The wait staff felt like a mediocre chain restaurant, while the flavors seemed top notch. The upper management provided a different experience, which I appreciated, once the manager, Emie, was finally called over. I had arrived later than I had expected because of getting lost, which I had informed staff about, and immediately upon sitting, they told me kitchen was closing soon, which I was understanding, so I had a few dishes picked out and just some questions, and instead of providing assistance, she basically rerouted my choices, (I wanted a meat dish - then she pointed me to a pork dish and shrimp dish...) then sent over another guy who emphasized that the Spicy Boiling Beef, was not actually spicy, and tried to point me to another beef dish with peppers... and since we were looking at an iPad, he was like lowered at my sitting level and kind of in my personal space and trying to get me to this other dish... well anyways, they then said it was last call (which was really unwelcoming and I believe they could have offered a little flexibility, since they were the ones trying to change my mind on dishes, causing confusion, and unable to answer the most basic of questions). So I went with my original, Spicy Boiling Beef, and it was, in fact, very spicy.. Things got better after the dish arrived, but even closing the check was difficult, and both the staff helping with it were just not pleasant to be around. Location: very hidden, and the directions linked from Yelp were confusing. It's located just above and over from the entrance to the lower parking garage. So when you think you're getting close, you can't see it, and are taken down the garage and it says you're there. But I didn't see signage to get me there from the garage, so drove back out and just parked along the street and followed the walking directions. There isn't much walking traffic tucked that far back, so I hope they'll improve their signage to bring more customers through. I would go back, and hope they get things sorted to evolve the experience.

    We came to check out this new spot in Summerlin, and we're so glad we did! We've been looking for an authentic Chinese restaurant that's beautiful, welcoming, and a great place to enjoy a nice meal with friends and family--and I think we found it! The ambiance is beautiful, and the food was just as impressive. The dumplings were incredible--so flavorful and filled with delicious soup. I was amazed at how much soup was inside while the delicate skin stayed perfectly intact without breaking! The hand-pulled noodles were another highlight. The broth was comforting and hit the spot without being overly heavy or overpowering. The staff were also incredibly attentive, kind, and welcoming, which made the whole experience even better. They even have a private karaoke room for larger parties, which would be so much fun for a family celebration or night out with friends. We had such a wonderful experience and will definitely be coming back! Menu: https://www.39miles.com/p/03371690

    Came to Yu By Sijie for a spontaneous dinner and I'm really glad we did. I didn't take any pictures, but honestly, pictures wouldn't do the food justice. It's something you really have to experience for yourself. We ordered the duck and I wish we would have gotten the whole duck instead of the half. Everything was delicious, but the spicy numbing noodle soup was definitely one of my favorites. I couldn't get enough of it. My buddy wanted to find a restaurant where we could have some leftovers to take home. Looking back, we probably should have just split the leftovers between us. Now I'm just looking forward to going back and trying more of the menu.

    potstickers were so good
    Ayami H.

    Someone has granted my wishes because I've been waiting for a good Chinese restaurant to open in Summerlin. I'm from SGV so my standards are pretty high lol and so far, this has been the only place that has made me happy in Vegas. Perks: No wait on Saturday at noon. You scan on your phone and order through that, which is perfect for a shy, introvert like myself. There are photos which makes ordering so easy. I ordered: A+: Fried Potstickers - so crunchy and juice at the same time A: Juicy dumplings - very juicy and probably better than Din Tai Fung A: Fried rice was very good B-: Beef and Broccoli was good but nothing too special D-: Walnut shrimp. I don't know what was in the breading but it was soft and it was more like soggy corn dogs, which I didn't like at all. The interior was really cute, service was pretty good and fast, and the best part of this experience was meeting the owner at the end. She was so beautiful and sweet. She couldn't really speak English but Amy (GM), translated and so we were able to have a quick chat. Will definitely be coming back on a weekly bases lol.

    Went here for the first time tonight. Extremely impressed with the food and service. Very friendly staff and beautiful interior decor. We had hot and sour soup, sweet and sour spare ribs, Sui Mai as appetizers and then shared half a Peking duck. I have eaten Peking duck all over the world including many times in China. This dick ranks up there with the very best. So many times the meat is dry but their duck was not dry at all. Also, so many places give you too few pancakes for the amount of duck. But they included 8 or 10 pancakes, which is plenty for half a duck. The skin was perfect also. I give this new restaurant a 10 and I can't wait to go back and try many more of their dishes.

    eggplant and string beans
    Justin Y.

    Yu By Sijie is a very well put together chinese restaurant specializing in peking duck that can be seen roasting in their open kitchen when you walk by. Decor is very modern with a lot of imported wood fixtures and decorative fish tanks. Service was a little slow since it's a brand new restaurant which i'm sure they will fix moving forward. We started with the veggie egg rolls that were very crispy and paired well with the sweet sauce provided. They could have put more veggies inside though. The hot and sour soup was good but maybe a little on the thick side with too much corn starch. Stir fried eggplant and string beans were cooked perfectly and flavorful. Try the beef chow fun if you're looking for a well balanced dish featuring noodles. A must try is the beef roll appetizer. Definitely trying their peking duck on the next visit!

    Amazing ambiance, friendly helpful service, beautiful dishes…read more Both the duck soup and hot and sour soup was delicious. Crispy beef amazing! Peaking duck so good and it made into fried rice after was great. Green beans are solid Lamb chop was actually better than I expected Mopo tofu is different than I'm used to, it's alright, but I wouldn't get it again.

    Came here with a party of six on a Sunday night and there was no wait. The interior design of this…read moreplace is so elegant and beautiful. We didn't end up using the private room and just sat in one of the seats in the main restaurant and it was still a lovely experience. We were impressed with the plates and silverware. So pretty! We ordered: Crispy beef: 10 out of 10 Whole Peking duck: 9 out of 10 (the duck was a little small for the price and when they take the duck back to make your fried rice, I don't believe they use the same duck as the meat was very dry in our fried rice). The duck soup and hot and sour soup were delicious. We really enjoyed the table side experience and the duck wraps. The fried rice was good other than the dry duck pieces. Next time, we would definitely ask them to just leave the whole duck with us and just give us plain fried rice. Green beans: 9 out of 10 (standard.) Mapo tofu: 6 out of 10 (did not like the flavor as much as other restaurants.) Lamb lollipops: 10 out of 10 Seabass clay pot: 6 out of 10 (not worth a price, I've had better.) Old fashioned: too sweet Service was good, and the portions were perfect for six people with six items sharing family style. We all over-ate. Everything was tasty and proteins were cooked perfectly.
