Yat Sing - Redwood City

I moved to the Bay Area about 2 years ago and found it difficult to find a really good restaurant like Yat Sing. After moving to Woodside about 1 year ago, my husband and I finally decided to give it a try and the food was amazing! Since then we have noticed the food quality started to decline but not enough to write a review nor stop going there but this evening I have had enough! First the price charged on 16Jan2024, was different than the price on the menu which I was told would be fixed last year. When I inquired about the price difference, the lady at the front desk simply said “that’s the price, we are printing new menus”. Since I have been a customer since last year, that seems like a long time to not have menus correctly reflect the pricing and gives me the feeling that they charge what they feel like as I have no transparency in advance and this has been an issue since last year. I understand things are changing and prices may be updated more frequently in today’s world but they need to offer digital menus instead and print only a few for customers that are not digital savvy. Anyway, I ordered take out that included a vegetarian egg rolls and shrimp noodle soup which cost $25.82. The vegetarian egg roll was greasy and uneditable! When I looked at the container to see why grease was dripping down my fingers I was surprised to see the egg roll was literally swimming in grease (see attached picture). I also ordered the shrimp noodle soup which was flavorless and had about 5 shrimp in total. My total cost for these two items was $25.82 and not worth the price at all. I will not return. Not sure if they have changed chefs but they need to go back to their original quality of food which has been lacking for months. And they need to address the price transparency issues mentioned earlier. I wish them well but won’t be back.

First and last time I come, I ordered roast duck and it was very dry and salty, the soup was not given to me in a large bowl but divided into 2 small bowls and at the time of paying they charged me more for the price of the duck.Be careful because apart from the fact that they charge more, they get a tip without you giving it, today I saw it in my CT.

Yat Sing is your perfect Chinese restaurant in the neighborhood. It's great for takeout and dine in. You'll want to go back often and they will get to know you and welcome you again and again. The food is very good with a wide selection and quick service. Make it your next choice for Chinese.

I recommend it, excellent service, very delicious chaomin food

Great food and customer service. Potsticker are the bomb!
