Yummy Bowl

Well prepared. We had hot and sour soup, followed by 4 seasons with shrimp. I had spicy vegetables and noodles with beef. The beef was very tender. The noodles were homemade. Piano music in the background was pleasant and slightly romantic. Will absolutely do it again.

I was there for a Wedding Shower. The food was very good, and the service was outstanding. I would recommend Yummy Bowl for regular dining, or for special occasions. Dietary restrictions: Some people were gluten free and vegetarian. They accommodated all requests without a problem.

To be fair (to be fay-ahhh), I only carried out, but the food was delicious. And the Blue Square on the back of the fortune cookies is noted and much appreciated. Treat yourself.

The three times I've been here in the past six months have been consistently good. The portions & the quality along with the service are all better than average. The atmosphere is a little bit bland though.

I felt compelled to make this review since the restaurant seems to be getting unfairly review bombed with 1-star reviews for whatever reason on google. I've been going to this restaurant for almost ten years now, and it's probably the best Chinese restaurant I've found within the area (seems particularly difficult to find decent Chinese in the northern suburbs). The food tastes fresh and is clearly much higher quality than the usual American Chinese fare that typically tries to make up for the lousy quality with gigantic portions. The orange chicken and empress chicken are my go-to dishes. Both are especially good if you eat them in the restaurant on the spot before the sauce takes away the crispiness of the chicken. The hot and sour soup is top notch as well. The only thing that's fallen off in recent years is the crab rangoon. It's still good, but it used to be amazing--just like I remember crab rangoon tasting in the early 90s before restaurants started using imitation crab, then no crab at all, then next to no cream cheese. Very sad to see it change. I've always received friendly service at the restaurant, and the atmosphere is clean, elegant, and relaxing. I try to make a point of eating here whenever I visit Highland Park.
