Very disappointed. I do not recommend this restaurant, until they get a better cook. I was arived for lunch, and was politely seeted. He imediately returned with Hot Tea & Ice Water. After looking at the lunch specials, I ordered Kung Pao Chicken, Pork Fied Rice, and Sesame Chicken. A tasty bowl of Hot-and-Sour Soup was served (7/10). Next, my lunch special arrived. Immediately I could see that my Sesame Chicken was not Sesame Chicken, just bland, unseasoned nuggets straight out of the fryer. The waiter tried to convince me that it was Sesame Chicken, rediculous (0/10). The Kung Pao was prepared correctly, but was very bland (2/10). The Pork Fried Rice was sorta bland but better than the two meat dishes (4/10). I was super hungry, but couldn't continue eating. I left a full plate of food, paid, then quietly suggested they needed better food to have return customers. An off-day for the cook? I don't think so. A real disappointment, as the returant is clean & well decorated. They could be serving more customers if served tasty food.
A long time staple of Main Street in Downtown Tigard, Yen’s Chinese Restaurant has stood the test of time. It’s no nonsense, keep things simple and affordable, and great service has made this place a favorite with locals for years. So whether it’s dine in or take out add this spot to your “let’s give it a try” list. And, as always, don’t forget to support small business!

Mahalo Yen’s Chinese Restaurant!????????
I grew up in Tigard. My family would eat here as a treat when we could. I'm so glad the place hasn't changed. The food is good and you can't complain about the prices at all. I love theIr fried shrimp. It brings back so many memories for me.
I know it's wrong but I love theIr sweet and sour sauce on the lo main noodles.
This is our go too for Chinese food. Have been a customer for years and never have we had a bad experience. The decor is dated but that's part of the charm . The Hot and Sour soup is outstanding, so is the Egg Flower soup . My friend and I usually order a combination each . We often make changes to the dishes and it's never been a problem. We usually order takeout and it's ready in under 20min. Never have we left without an order Chicken Egg Foo Young , best ever . We have noticed the prices have been rising but the quality and quantity are satisfactory.
This is a good place to enjoy a relaxing meal. Portions are big enough for leftovers. I love the old school charm. Friendly staff too.
The best hot and sour soup I've ever had!!! Service was excellent and the tea and food were piping hot. Delicious spring rolls. We tried the kung pao chicken, sweet and sour, pork spouts and fried rice. All great!
Combos are portioned well, everything tasted great and was fresh. I ordered to go each time and felt like the service and wait time was great. The young woman that helped me was very friendly.
I'm from out of town (Cali), and the kids and I really wanted some Chinese, or pan-fried or chow maine noodles at the very least. For some reason, every single non Ramen place was closed past 2pm even on the weekend, so I came across this place. Again, I'm not from the area, it's much different than the Chinese food I'm used to in California, and it was more expensive as well, but that said it was still good, just different. I've visited twice ordering for the whole family, so I tried quite a bit of the menu. Favorites were the Sesame chicken, sweet and sour chicken, pan-fried noodles, and fried shrimp.
This place is the BEST!!!!! We have been here for a little over a year now and had been a little hesitant to visit since it felt like a little hole in the wall lol but we were SO pleasantly surprised by how amazing our food was.
Ordered 2 small egg flower soups (the best I have ever had) and two combinations #8. We had called ahead and they were willing to substitute the fried shrimp for the sesame chicken, staff was really so nice and had no issue with the change. The beef and broccoli is seriously to die for!! I have never ever ever ever had this dish with SO MUCH flavor. Last but certainly not least, the pork fried rice, it’s like they put liquid gold in the rice lol This place really knows what they are doing. We will be making this our go to Chinese place.
Seriously everyone needs to at least just try this place out:)
