    S8. General Tso's Chicken  Beef and Broccoli
    Pouya G.

    Great carry out in the Brightwood park, probably one of the best in the city. I liked them before the change in management and the new management did NOT Disappoint. General Tsao chicken was great, and beef and broccoli was on point. When I look at the previous reviews I see that many people don't like their fried food, but the typical AmericanChinese food was great!

    What can you say about this place? Chicken wings with "mumbo sauce" or some fried shrimp with fried rice are at your doorstep faster than I can find my wallet most of the time. I'm writing this after having just placed a phone order and bet the phone will ring from the delivery driver by the time anyone reads the first word of this online. Yums is pretty good for what it is and they're really fast. Along with wings and shrimp, there's also a wide variety of American "Chinese" food. I've never set foot in the place (and won't), so I've never even seen the menu (and can't find one online). Pros: fast, hot, not bad at all Cons: no menu in the bag? Also, they put the sauce on the beautifully fried wings unless you tell them to put it in a cup. If you like your wings soggy and smothered in sauce, don't say anything--that's how you'll get 'em. Oh, and the guy will tell you to hold on at least three times when you phone in an order. Just hold on.

    Totally gross food that I would not recommend to anyone. I ordered General Tso's chicken which consisted of the grossest, stringiest chicken with a mushy fried exterior. See pictures attached for the sad excuse for a sweet and sour pork that I also received. Didn't even come with sauce or vegetables. Just greasy fried pork and nothing else. Only saving grace was the Crab Rangoons. But not enough for me to give Yum's anything other than a one star.

    Shrimp general tso! Yuck

    We made our orders, and halfway through, we saw a cockroach run through in between the meats, and…read morego under the counter. Not wanting to be rude, and at the insistence of my partner, we paid for our sandwiches and left. I managed to take a picture of the roach. My veggie patty came out from the fridge, so I felt slightly better when eating it, hoping that no roach came across it, but it was so frost bitten and then heated up, it tasted like a mush patty sandwich. It was by far the worst subway I've had. My partner ate his sandwich, and of course, now has food poisoning. He ordered the chicken bacon ranch sub. The sandwich artist also had his mask underneath his nose. I would highly recommend no ody to come here. I should have left immediately. Horrendous location.

I'm used to Subway people waiting impatiently on me to figure out WTH I want, but here....it's always the opposite. At this Subway, you'll have time to draft your entire Yelp review while waiting to order. Plan on a good 10-15 mins to stop in here. To add insult to injury, they will literally sprinkle the bare minimum amount of toppings...seriously.... 6 olive slices? Why don't you just sprinkle olive dust on it?! And I thought the 11" footlong was the worst of their crimes. Sadly no. Be prepared to get the evil eye when you ask for more olives and onions. There's a parking lot directly behind the building...be careful not to drive/step into the grave-sized potholes. I'm tempted to calculate the extra minutes in line + toppings shortage, divided by the close proximity to my house, minus the distance to the next closest subway in Takoma multiplied by the proportional increase in toppings, by the square root of improved customer service, carry the one.....oh screw it. I'll be back and I know it, It's right around the corner from my house. Damn.

I have been known to eat as many as 50 in one sitting--in true Balzacian fashion. Everyone seems to love the ancient-grains salad, and Motorkat also does grilled meats exceptionally well. Great food, inventive drinks, and a fun neighborhood atmosphere: Motorkat gets the formula exactly right.
