on Citysearch May 25, 2009I visited Yu's yesterday after I swore a few months ago I would never go back. The first time I had to wait 15 minutes for my waitress to come back to ask for the check. Then I waited another 20 minutes (no joke) for her to... (more)

on Citysearch Apr 26, 2008The food was excellent. Unfortunately, the service from our waiter Raymond was absolutely terrible. We asked for soup while we were waiting for the remaining two members of our party to arrive. Raymond yelled at us... (more)

on Citysearch Mar 28, 2008Had lunch here a few days ago. This is the second time I have been there in the past few months and found the place both dirty and the service horrible. When I found a black hair in the fried rice and informed the waiter, he... (more)

on Citysearch Feb 28, 2008I have been here a handful of times. Certain dishes good. While others ..just ok. I must say the staff there was not so pleasant. Didn't seem to care about you and your needs. Always a long wait. I went there with my... (more)

on Citysearch Sep 25, 2007For everyone that wrote a review 2 or less, you people SERIOUSLY GOT THE WRONG STUFF! That food you people ordered -- I could imagine the taste that you people were describing. What you should get is the real Chinese... (more)

on Citysearch Aug 26, 2007Good for whom? Maybe the northwest burbs is so lacking in good chinese you think this is good. Last night I made and paid [costly by the way] a pick up order for 2. 2 soups, 1 appetizer, and 2 entrees. The cost was $34. I... (more)

on Citysearch Jun 21, 2007Food was decent but the staff and the owner were nothing short of nasty. The waitress did not want to help in food selection (us being vegetarians), was very rude and when I complained to the owner, he said ' So... (more)

on Citysearch Sep 28, 2006When I saw them proudly displaying their "Best Chinese" citysearch award when I picked up a carryout order today, I felt compelled to share that Yu's is now officially Way Overrated. Now don't get me wrong, I was as... (more)

on Citysearch Aug 09, 2006I liked this place. It's not my favorite Chinese Restaurant, but I WILL definitely go back. They have great appetizers in all sizes and a huge menu. If you ask the waiter/waitress about the Chinese menu on the back of... (more)

on Judys Book May 01, 2006I go here on occassion for lunch. It is not on the top of my lists for my favorite spot to get a good meal. During lunch, parking is hard to find, there are long waits, and the service is a bit on the rude side. The meals are... (more)

on Judys Book Apr 04, 2006One of my favourite places to get Chinese food from is Yus Mandarin in Schaumburg, IL. The food is excellent, served in extremely large portions (enough to feed at least a couple of people), the restaurant itself... (more)

on Judys Book Mar 20, 2006Sometimes they demonstrate the noddle making, and you can see them preparing your food as they have an open kitchen. Other that home made noddle, I do not see anything else special from this restaurant. The home made... (more)

on Judys Book Feb 20, 2006This is a great little spot to get some good chinese/mandarin food. There are absolutely no frills here. But you do get really good food here. It is always fresh and everything I have tried always tastes great too. I... (more)

on Judys Book Jan 14, 2006This is a great option for a quick lunch. They have some great lunch deals and the best thing is that most of them are priced at only around 5 dollars per meal. The food is okay, nothing that makes it super spectacular or... (more)

on Judys Book Dec 11, 2005This restaurant not only has great prices but it can be considered family style. The dishes range from $7-$15 and are huge portions. They are great for sharing and passing around the table.... (more)

on Judys Book Nov 28, 2005Yu's is a great Chinese Resturant. I particularly like their Noodle dishes as it reminds me of when I use to live in China for 2 years for work. The only downside is sometimes there is a long wait and the food can bee too... (more)

on Citysearch Nov 12, 2005Okay, so you may have to wait a little while to be seated at prime times, but consider that a compliment of how delicious their food truly is. The portions are generous, the price is fair, the atmosphere is a little noisy... (more)

on Citysearch Nov 08, 2005This is a great Chinese Resturant. They have been open for a long time and even President Bush Senior visited as they show him in a picture with the owners in the front door. It's always packed and sometime you will have... (more)

on Citysearch Sep 26, 2005I am amazed at the negative reviews I'm reading. Are we talking about the same place? This is, quite probably, the BEST Chinese restaurant I've ever experienced. I've been to Chinatown in Frisco, New York & Chicago... (more)

on Citysearch Sep 24, 2005The food was quite bland. I had the garlic chicken, and it was not very flavorful, but the pieces of chicken were of good quality. The sizzling rice soup was good. Watching your food being prepared in the kitchen was... (more)

on Judys Book Aug 08, 2005If you want terrific Chinese food in a nice setting, Yu's Mandarin is the place to go. Allow yourself plenty of time on weekends as the wait time can be excessive (1 hour+). Once you're seated, take a look through the... (more)
