106. Grilled Fish/  香辣烤全魚
David L.

Most authentic Chinese restaurant in the Conejo valley. Fair prices and large portions. Super friendly staff. Love their food/deli counter. You can also get frozen dumplings to-go. Love the house grilled-fish.

Pineapple Fried Rice

We've been here a few times. Usually we order to go but it was the first time for me to sit down and eat lunch here. I'm not crazy about Sichuan spice but they had other options and it was pretty good The staff was nice and friendly. We enjoyed the meal and couldn't finish it so we had to take it to go. It wasn't busy and the staff seemed to be having lunch just as we were. It was a standard Chinese restaurant and had a chill vibe. When we have Chinese cravings while in the area. We will come here. Recommend trying if you need a taste of Asia.

Hot and sour soup

I can't believe that I haven't written a review for Yunnan Restaurant when it is one of the two Chinese restaurants in the area that are my Taiwanese-parent-approved! Since its opening, Yunnan Restaurant has become a staple in our rotation for good reason. The pro-tip that I almost want to gatekeep is to go for lunch because that's the only way to guarantee that all of the best cold dishes are still in stock. My family's go-to is the vinegar potato strings, bamboo shoots, and sliced mushrooms, but we've recently also gotten into getting a side order of the peanuts with anchovies. The peanuts have a great sweet and salty roasted flavor and would pair perfectly with some rice. I could honestly be happy just ordered a big plate of the vegetarian cold dishes with rice, but it would be criminal to not order some of the noodles. The Sichuan style cold noodle is my absolute favorite item on the menu. It is vinegary, spicy, a little bit sweet, and super refreshing! The noodle texture is nice and bouncy, and the sliced carrots and scallions and blanched bean curds add a great crunchy texture. Despite being meatless, this noodle dish is absolutely satisfying and delicious! Most of the praises I sing are about this cold noodle dish, but their other items are also quite yummy. I enjoy the braised garlic seafood tofu dish, which pairs well with rice, and there are whole cloves of garlic that were braised with the seafood to be subtlety sweet and not at all pungent. Yunnan Restaurant really lives up to the hype!

Soup 39. Juicy Pork Dumplings

Yunnan Restaurant had been on my bookmark list for awhile now since they opened. I was excited for a taste of LA in the 805 as they have multiple locations in the Los Angeles area. A nice little drive to oak park faired me well because this spot was great. The restaurant is so cozy and for an early lunch it was nice and quiet, just what I needed. The menu reminds me of home, beautiful Chinese dishes with dim sum, noodles, and soups. This restaurant is intended to be a slow and thoughtful meal. A little rest and relaxation away from life's problems. The staff leave you alone but are also very friendly and welcoming. I sat with my hot tea and had a much needed recharge moment. It's one of those places where you might need to make eye contact to get a refill or a check but it didn't bother me. I appreciate my space sometimes and again, the staff couldn't be nicer. The menu is massive and I ordered a few of my favorites which I'm happy to share: * Wonton rice noodle soup with pork & chicken broth. This broth is so flavorful and hearty. It was a heartwarming spoonful of culture and tradition. You can taste the bone broth and proteins that make this soup so amazing. The noodles were soft, fresh bokchoy, and delicious wontons. * Pork Soup Dumplings. A classic dish. No, they don't rival the larger chain dumpling shops in LA but these were still tasty and satisfying. I'd take a dumpling that's more modest as the drive was only 15 minutes with a zero wait time. Their dumpling dipping sauce was magical, sweet and vinegary, hit the spot. * Shrimp Fried Rice. Anytime I have dumplings I have to order some rice to catch all of the drippings from the sauce and juice, fried rice was calling my name. I love how light yet flavorful this fried rice is. It's no frills but just comforting. Topped with some chili oil - it's a feel good simple side. The restaurant interior was spacious and nicely decorated. It's a fairly big restaurant and I appreciate that they have a food ratio of booths but also larger tables. Very clean inside and comfortable. All in all this was a great spot and I stuffed my face for $50 after tip and had so many boxes of leftovers to take home with me. Big portions and a good value.

Not many super authentic Chinese spots to choose from in the area so this one is truly a gem around here. I got the cold platter trio and everything was delicious and they definitely generous with their portions, The price is definitely a little more $$ as if you were to get the same type of food in the San Gabriel Valley- but hey it's one of its only kind out here!

house chow mein
Emma W.

This Chinese restaurant was recommended to me from my friend who's also from HK. Honestly, I think I might've ordered wrong because I just got what I usually would get when ordering Chinese food back home (Colorado) but I think it was just average compared to the expectations I had from it. Again, it might just be the food we got because I read someone else's review that recced the Sichuan cold noodles. Anyways, service was good and the restaurant was nice and quiet too. I can definitely see this place as a solid comfort for people who just want good ole Chinese takeout.

Sesame Chicken

I have no idea how this restaurant is still in business. The servers didn't care about providing any type of customer service. No one was there to hold anyone accountable..no manager or owner. The absolute worst food and service! The water is the regular chlorinated tap water which is not drinkable. The tea is not the normal green tea...so yes, that was below par as well. The sesame chicken and the orange chicken were the same except for the addition of sesame seeds. Both dishes were extremely overcooked. We brought it to the attention of the server. She offered to have both dishes redone. However, what we got was the same exact dishes that they microwaved for 30 seconds and put more sauce on. They ended up removing both of the dishes from our bill. The cumin beef was overloaded with cumin, and the beef was old and dry. The scallion pancakes and spring rolls were the only thing that was edible.

Cold cut appetizers

This was our 2nd visit and each time - the food was delicious. This most recent visit, we ordered: 1) dry pot intestine - this is a must get 2) seafood tofu pot - the tofu was so soft and flavors were spot on 3) hot & sour soup - decent 4) spicy eggplant in garlic sauce - this was delicious 5) cumin lamb - decent 6) bowls of white rice 7) 3 meat cold cut appetizers - tripe, headcheese, and pork tongue - good! 8) braised pork belly with napa cabbage - good

43. Green Onion Pancake. Good, but a bit greasy.
Kat W.

Finally! Delicious, consistent, flavorful perfection! I was guilty of ordering 3x in 2 weeks! FOOD: I ordered delivery through Postmates, etc... a few times over a period of 2 weeks. Each time was delicious. Each time was also consistent, which I appreciate. The food was flavorful without being overly salty. Over the different times that I ordered, I tried the Shrimp Chow Mein, Pan Fried Dumplings, Green Onion Pancake, Spring Rolls, and Shredded Pork with Beijing Sauce & Crepie. Everything was outstanding. My orders were always correct and it came pretty quickly. The presentation and portion size was outstanding as well! OVERALL: I would recommend trying this restaurant for takeout and delivery! I'm sure it's great for dine in as well! I have never dined in myself though. The restaurant even threw in a little freebie once, which is such a kind, generous gesture.

11/30/2024: came here for the first time with a friend who lives in the area. I was visiting and craving something "noodly" and Yelp recommend Yunnan! It looked pretty good, was so close by.. and when I saw they also have locations in Monterey Park I felt good about this choice! The place is small, but the menu options are extensive. They even have a freezer when you walk in where you can purchase various dumplings to take home to cook! There is a large cold item "salad bar" at the counter that's not listed in the menu. We were given a few things from the bar to sample, and every item was so tasty! For our first time, we chose the Salt & Pepper Chicken Wing appetizer. Generous portion on a platter, the wings were fresh and so crispy! Slightly different flavor profile than some other places I frequent, but still good. We ordered Item 23, the Lo Mein with Beef. Nice and saucy, the beef was tender and it had plenty of vegetables! Great for 2 to share. Item 33, the Green Onion Pancakes were so crisp, the presentation was lovely but on their own they needed a little "something". There was a seasoned vinegar on the table as well as a jar of chili oil.. just a little enhanced the flavor! The setting is very casual. Clean and well lit. The service was friendly and they were helpful to tell us about the menu offerings. I can't wait to come back with a larger group so we can try even more items!

Chilli Noodles
Paul S.

Could this be the Best Chinese Food in Ventura County? Atmosphere: Pretty typical chinese decor handful of tables on the smaller side. Its loud there is a bar with unique local appetizers. Something you dont see anywhere outside of china town. Food: The Menu here is huge and extremely authentic. Think Chinese Cheescake factory. They have a bit of everything you could be looking for. The menu has English/Chinese with some local options that you have never seen. Hot & Sour Soup - Only sold in a large family style bowl, hot spicy and perfect, one of the best around. Yunnan Style Fried Rice Noodle - Spicy, chewy and SO much flavor Pan Fried Pork Dumplings - Juicy, crispy, meaty these are so good, You get 10 of them and they aren't small. Chung Fried Chicken Cubes with Hot peppers - This is so good, Spicy as heck but the flavor is bursting at the seams. Don't get this if you cant handle spicy. Orange Chicken - Crispy sweet and delicious with all white meat. Must get String Beans with Eggplant - For a veggie dish this is top tier, PACKED with flavor and cooked to perfection. Sauce Tip: ask the server to make you a dipping sauce for the dumplings, they add jalapenos and soy,vinegar and who knows what else SO GOOD. Drinks: Hot tea is served as you sit and is delicious. Allow it to steep for 5 min before drinking Price: Very affordable for the amount of food you get Parking: They have a lot in the back with plenty of free parking Service: Once you are seated the food comes out lightning fast. If you are coming to this place to eat you will be pleased with the service. If you are coming here for a fully catered multicourse meal with a waiter extremely attentive to your needs this isn't the place. Foods amazing and authentic a truly hidden gem in a town not known for its food.

You know the same people clean the bathroom as the kitchen. If this is an example of cleanliness... uh oh.

26 April 2025. We arrived at about 1:35. The food here is great. When you can get it. If you want table service, be the correct ethnic persuasion, or at least have someone at your table who looks like the staff. Our table was grudgingly waited on after several others that arrived, not a few minutes after us, more like 10-20 minutes after we did. Once the waitress deigned to give us an audience, we ordered three dishes. A "noodle" #8, described in the menu as "Wonton with rice Noodle in Chicken Broth". A pork dish, #90 Shredded Pork in Garlic Sauce. A veggie dish, #108, Eggplant Tofu in Brown Sauce. We liked that hot tea was automatic. We didn't like that all other soft drinks were canned. Luckily the tea was good. The "Noodles" arrived first. They were actually a soup. This had a red broth, stuffed wontons with ground pork and sesame oil flavor, and small cubes of well seasoned meat. Not what we ordered. There were two problems with that. Nobody checked on us so we couldn't bring it up. And, luckily it was fine, so we ate it anyway. About 15 minutes later, the pork showed up. It was delicious with long pieces of stir-fried pork with julienned veggies and tree ear fungus. The portions were huge, so we happily conserved stomach space for the eggplant dish. It never arrived. We were planning to take our leftovers home for dinner. As we sat there looking sheepishly helpless, we finally decided to have seconds on the precious two dishes we were served; assuming that they "forgot" our third dish. So much for our dinner plans. We sat at that table for over an hour after receiving our first dish, as other tables around us turned twice. No eggplant. No checking on us. Nothing. The waitress wouldn't even look in our direction. It was really strange. I didn't want to believe that we were being ignored deliberately; it's so uncommon nowadays. I remember this level of prejudice from visiting the South in the early 60s; luckily this type of behavior is no longer tolerated. It was so blatant, though, we both had to accept that it was no mistake. Yep it was the real thing. I finally decided. That's it. I'm leaving. We seemed invisible. I decided to visit the restroom. Since I took my jacket and bag with me, it seemed to garner the attention of a waiter who had just arrived. He managed to notice my H looking helpless, who evidently asked for the check, which was there when I returned from the restroom. I was grateful that they saw their way clear to bring some to-go containers to our table, even though not enough for dinner. There were supposed to be two restrooms; one was out of service and the other was not very clean, with wet floors, dirt at the margins, and a nasty rag hanging on a rail behind the toilet. Oak Park is not a place we readily visit and we went out of our way to go here, based on so many good Yelp reviews. I'd say, if you want to partake from their buffet or freezer, knock yourself out. If you want to sit down and order from the menu, watch out. Or at least be Asian.

Yummy  Juicy Pork Dumplings
Josephine G.

We were in the area so we decided to try this resto. Walked in and there were only two tables that were occupied and a worker was mopping the floors. So I got confused if they were open or not. There was no one at the front counter so I walked to the other side of the counter, thinking this place might be one of those fast food Chinese restaurants. To my dismay, I saw trays full of animal parts that I would never eat. I wish they would cover these trays cuz not everyone can stomach seeing those parts. Anyway, a waiter approached us and gave us the Menu. I asked if they were open and he said yes. I looked at the Menu and noticed they do serve regular Chinese food. We sat and decided what we want but no one really approached us. My husband flagged the waiter to take our orders: fried Rice, salt and pepper fish and pork dumplings. When the food arrived, I was shocked of the huge servings. And they are all good!!! Oh and after our food was delivered, a waitress came and she was more attentive and provided better service than the waiter we dealt with earlier. Overall, we might go back.... I just won't look what's behind the food shield.

See all
