Local Favorite Spot! Super sweet owner, funny and nice, and great food. Can't beat it!

On Father's Day I unfortunately had a craving for pork fried rice and General T'os chicken. So, as I was passing by, I decided to order and take it home along with some steamed dumplings. When I arrived home and began to eat. I could instantly tell there was something wrong. I had a terrible sour taste in my mouth. After further investigation. I was able to determine the pork in the rice was rotten. They disguised it, but the flavor doesn't lie. I don't care about the money that I paid. The fact that I threw it away. What really gets me is the disrespect and indifference to a customer. I won't even bother calling them. They obviously don't care!!!! read more

Yu's Garden - This is rotten pork fried rice! - Chinese Near Me - Trussville, Alabama

Food was not hot or fresh. No drinks except bottled water. No ice tea, not clean and food was not good. Service was sparse. Main dish came out at same time as appetizer. No ambiance. At all. It looked like about four tables that needed washing. Bathrooms were not in good repair. read more

Absolutely love the place. Straight from the menu or special order is no problem. Owners are always friendly and accommodating.

Normally an excellent choice. My fault for getting something 5 minutes before closing as the order was not up to normal standards. Spicy honey chicken, egg rolls, and lo mein dish are wonderful read more

Normalize not having a huge fng horse fly in your chow mein. Generally the food is good but we were disgusted by what we found in our noodles. Sorry read more

Food is very good! Service is fast! Parking is tough but they do have one parking space specifically for takeout! All in all it is a great place for eating and takeout!!! read more

I can't believe I drove to Trussville for lunch but my sister was impressed with the amount of food offered and the quality of food. 3 of us shared our lunch and it was worth the drive. The young lady that waited on me is a student that's been properly trained. If I'm in the area, I will order from them again. read more

We really enjoy the food and the service is always fantastic. We don't get to enjoy the ambience munch because we usually order for delivery, but we really appreciate having them nearby and having consistent Chinese food. read more

The service was awesome. The place looked clean. I got the Mongolian beef and I couldn't even chew the beef up

I picked this place because of the reviews and was very disappointed. I ordered beef and broccoli the only thing I could eat was the beef as I believe they put raw broccoli in the dish. The rice was the driest tasteless bunch of goo I ever tried. My wife ordered egg drop soup and got some kind of seafood and chicken vegetable soup. Her sweet and sour chicken was so tough we couldn't eat it. So this one was an epic fail to me. read more

Best Chinese food around that you will find. Owners are also very friendly. Portions are also huge.

When our usual go to for Chinese take out closed, we had to quickly find a nearby replacement on short notice. After a menu review and a quick phone call for our vegetarian daughter to get some details on a couple of options we decided to give Yu's a try. Our order consisted of Hot & Sour and Egg Drop Soups, Egg Rolls, Crab Rangoon and an order of House Tofu to go along with some homemade Chicken Fried Rice. Everything was really good, daughter really liked her House Tofu. Only negative was the Egg Drop Soup unexpectedly had meat in it, which meant daughter ended up with no soup. This will probably be our new go to for Chinese take out and daughter is looking forward to trying the Ma Po Tofu dish recommended when she picked up dinner. read more

Food is always delicious with huge portions. The staff is always very nice and welcoming, I've been coming here for years and I've never been disappointed. The only "improvement" I wish they'd make would be to accept American Express. read more

This place is absolutely amazing. You get what you pay for, and the portions are very large, unlike Mr Wests in Trussville, where they charge you quadruple for half the amount of food. Thank you for being considerate to your customers and providing top-notch quality food. I will stick to you guys for my Asian cuisine! read more

Friendly, local people who make fairly authentic Chinese food that Americans prefer. Honestly have never had a bad meal here in over ten years. Consistent, timely, and the order has been 100% right every time. A family favorite for sure! read more

I am sharing this testimony in a very emotional state.God is good all the time,and all the time He is good,and I cannot thank him enough for his love and mercy over my family and me.It was 03-09-24,David ( My husband ) and I ( Melanie) just finished dinner.We sat at the table near the window. We just left this restaurant and didn't even get to our car. A couple seconds later a woman drove through the glass and hit our table. Had we been 15 seconds later,we would have been with the Lord. As we stood there in shock people kept saying to us "Angels protected you" and "T he Lord is with you" and "God has a purpose for you". The spot she drove through was exactly where our table was! God saved our lives.He has been protecting us all along..God bless YUS Garden and the woman driver and her family. And we look forward to visit you again YUS GARDEN when you re-open. God bless us all. To God be the glory, Amen! read more

WS just there leaving now 12:40, so would say we were there before 12:00. Only 1 seated table eating. Toke several minutes to get drinks, then several more minutes to take order. She brings my husband his plate - runs around for several minutes, takes another table his plate I still have no food! Finally my food comes! Guess what! Cold as ice!!! Husband eats - I pick around( thank goodness ate the soup) then finally give up! Takes forever to try and get her attention, just went ahead and went to cash register and asked for go plate. Then had to chase her down for ticket! Told her my food was cold - she says " was take out?"!! I said " no we ate right there!!" Pointed to our table!!! Paid $25.00 for COLD FOOD!!! Do not think we will be back!!!!! read more

Since moving to Trussville, I had to find a new place for some Chinese food which one of my Yelp friend recommend I try this place out. What Yu's Garden stands out from different Chinese restaurants is the lunch menu prices are reasonable and not only do you get an egg roll and rice, but a soup choice of either egg drop or hot and sour. The sesame chicken is my favorite item to order which is always good and the chicken isn't breaded which I can't stand when restaurants try to pass it off as real chicken. The fried rice is also good, but wish I could get more than one scoop. They make there own Chinese mustard and it don't take much before you start feeling it in your nose so be cautious about how much you want on your food. read more

I absolutely love their food :) we have eaten there to many times to count. It's our favorite.

Just ordered take-out (pick-up) from Yu's Garden I had the Mongolian Beef w/ egg roll and my husband had the shrimp w/ lobster sauce and an egg roll. My husband had No complaints about his food but, the texture of my Mongolian Beef was like shoe leather! Not tender nor supple but, more like trying to eat beef jerky drenched in soy sauce! The egg rolls had a peculiar smell to them and were dried out and difficult to chew! I ended up throwing my food in the trash! Because it was so disgusting! I work hard for my money and I'm so disappointed I feel like I just spent my hard earned cash on food that I couldn't even sat down and enjoy!!! This message is to the owner of this establishment please do better take pride in preparing your customers food and serve them with fresh hot edible food that you would be proud to serve your family and friends!!! read more

The cashier who take order she is a liitle bit rude to tue costumer its my first time to order and i love the food its very good but i dont like the cashier read more

We have been getting Yu's for years and it has been good. Seems lately the quality has gone down. Just ordered spicy honey wings and crab rangoons. Wings were slimy with no taste. I had to cook in the air frier to crisp up. The rangoons had not filling. Just hollow air. Yu's needs to pick up their game so we will keep ordering. read more

Egg rolls - nice crunch and tasty meat inside Spring rolls - Vietnamese style wrapper, nice crunch no meat and wish they put the egg roll filling in this wrapper Cream cheese wontons - crunchy and great filling read more

Phone order for pickup was on time, and packaged well to maintain warmth. At home, the meals ordered were delicious in taste, and without a doubt we will order again. read more

I love the shrimp fried rice, and egg drop soup. The service is great. Parking is a little tie, so I normally place to go orders.

This restaurant does not earn a one star rating. The social skills of the employees are nonexistent, arrogant and ignorant of their on product. The "large" container of Egg Drop Soup liquid was just water that was easy to see through in the clear container, no ginger, a small amount of chicken scraps, two very small pieces of carrot, two peas, absolutely zero seasoning of any kind, two small nasty mushy shrimp, no corn starch, I could go on but suffice it to say the soup was made from "only" water and a few chicken, carrot and pea scraps. The Mongolian Beef was so sweet with "grainy sugar", yes you could see the sugar grains, it was so bad that it was inedible and only good for the trash. It had only two small strips of onion. The rice was old or way over cooked. I am 70 years old and my guess is that the egg rolls were half my age. The large order of Sesame Chicken with extra Sesame Seeds met the same standards. Nasty, Funky, Sickening service and food. If we had not been on the road and 30 miles from the restaurant I would have taken it back and demand a refund. When I visit Trussville again I hope to see the store under new ownership or closed for business...... read more

I live yu's! Their food is always good and they are pretty quick! Their lettuce wraps are a bit different than I've become accustomed to from PF Chang's but they are delicious! I love their Mongolian beef and friend rice is also great. Haven't had anything I don't like from here! read more

This is my "go to" for Chinese in Trussville. We usually get takeout, as the restaurant is small, but the staff is always friendly and the food is always great (and I've had them at least 20 times over the last 5 years). read more

My go to for take out. This place is always consistent in taste and very quick. Their sweet tea is perfect too for the tea lovers. When we aren't feeling well, I always get their egg drop soup and fried rice. Dining in is nothing special. So order to go and take home to binge Netflix. read more

We recently moved to Trussville and have been searching for a good Chinese restaurant. We were not expecting Yu's Garden to be this. darn. good! It's located in a shopping strip mall next to Publix off Highway 11. Walking into the store, it looks like your average Chinese establishment, but once you take a bite of their food... wow! They are fast and the food is fantastic. Their egg drop soup is by FAR the best I've ever had. It comes in a package for two and has chunks of chicken and shrimp in there - and they don't skimp on size. We also ordered the crab rangoons, teriyaki chicken and curry chicken. Each meal can seriously be good for two individuals. I've eaten off my dinner from Sunday night for lunch for the past two days - so you know it's a large portion. I also really like that they include a lot of good vegetables (water chestnuts, snow peas, etc.) in your entrée. Great food, friendly service - will definitely be hitting this place up on the reg. read more

Fast and good Chinese food. Really enjoy their Mongolian beef as well as their sesame chicken. Their egg drop soup is a little different than what I am used to but still good. Love their lo mein. read more

Always super nice when we go in, order online and make sure our order is done correctly. Best Chinese around us. Highly recommend read more

By far my favorite Chinese restaurant I've found! It's a little bit different than generic take-out, like adding bean sprouts to the fried rice. Delicious! read more

Very good food and you get a ton! I can usually get three meals out of an entree. Orange chicken is my fave!

Ordered from here last night. Got General Tso chicken and crab Rangoons. Every single piece of chicken was pink and uncooked. And the crab rangoons were cold. Not worth the 24$ spent at all. read more

Got take out last week and it was excellent!!! I was so happy because I was really craving some good Chinese food but had stopped going to Yu's a long time ago because the quality had really declined. Sadly there really are no other good Chinese restaurants in Trussville so I decided to give them a try since it had been so long. Everything was so fresh and flavorful and most importantly to me NOT greasy. We got egg rolls, vegetable fried rice and teriyaki chicken. I sincerely hope this means they are consistently back on track with quality, fresh food. Next time I'll take pics. read more

Good food. The owner is a great lady and they always work hard to make sure you are taken care of.

Good customer service We've been coming here for years and have recently moved to Homewood. We drive all the way to Trussville..because we LOVE their food. Also, they always remember us and we love that! Amazing ,Amazing ,Amazing spicy honey chicken... And they deliver! read more

Food is great but the attitude really isn't necessary! I don't appreciate having to chase my debit card down after it was slung across the counter because she was frustrated because she didn't ask for my name when I placed the call in order. read more
