Best WLM Reviews
Consistently great food here in Schaumburg and their other branches as well. Service is great and the space is big and pleasant. You can also watch the chefs cook your food in the kitchen behind the big glass! You’ll forget that this location is in a strip mall. Eat in or carry out. The next best thing if you can’t make it to Chinatown Chicago!
I enjoyed the dinner, nice atmosphere, the food was the best Mandarin I had in the area. I had the Kung pao chicken good but a little dry. The orange beef was a little dry also. The curry chicken and the sweet and sour chicken were perfect. The service was decent but they didn't follow up with refills.
Very good service and nice atmosphere!
The Taiwanese noodle soup was spot on. It had one special ingredient I was craving for, which made me so happy. The soup was very rich and flavorful. The meat was so tender, it literally melts with every bites.
The shrimp dumpling was ok.
I've been a customer for 25+ years of Yu's and I rarely post reviews. It must be incredibly good or absolutely terrible. I'm not sure what happened, but the quality has absolutely been slipping the past two orders. This is likely my last time. Everything (General Tso, Egg rolls, fried rice, shumai, crab rangoon, and smoothies) was barely passable to downright disgusting. I don't think I've ever thrown out their food before. Straight into the trash can.. they even messed up cooking the steamed rice...How??? Really disappointing to see.
This was our first visit to Yu Mandarin and will be returning! We ordered multiple dishes and shared family style. The staff was awesome! Our water cups stayed full and EVERY staff member that walked by our table checked on us. The food was fresh, hot, and delicious. You could see the cooks cooking the food.
Amazing and delicious food. Fast serving. Nice and helpful staff. Spacious place with many round tables and also rooms of tables.
Great place I used to go often years ago because I worked near the restaurant. I havent gone for a number of years and was glad to be back! There were 6 of us for lunch.. everyone loved their meal. A couple had the Sweet/Sour soup and they said it was very good today! We had pot stickers appetizers along with our main dishes. Everyone had extra to go home with so excellent portions!

Old standby Chinese - can't go wrong. Always fresh and generous quantity on your entree's. Service is fast and friendly. Professional Chefs are their trademark. Yumsville !!

Update 3/20/23:
We’ve been coming here for over 15 years. Food and service have had its good and not so good times but, it has picked back up significantly as of this review. The dining rooms need a little bit of renovating as some booth seats are torn. They’ve gotten away from providing the thicker nicer Yu’s napkins and also don’t give you enough chili oil like they used to with your entrees. You have to request hot tea as it’s not automatically brought or suggested when ordering. It’s these little touches to dining at the old Yu’s that I miss a lot.
They still make the plum sauce which is great with the egg rolls and crab rangoon. The egg drop soup is better than other places as it not only has tofu pieces but little baby shrimps too. It’s served piping hot to your table.
The main entrees of walnut shrimp, Kung Pao chicken and Rainbow rice were all delicious with generous portions . Signature provincial flavors are delicious made by the team of professional chefs with over 100+ years of collective experience each with their unique food specializations!
You really can’t go wrong here as all the food is consistent and you can watch them prepare your order. thru the glass. They make their own handmade noodles daily as well as offer some Korean dishes.
Good location, great food and still one of the best Chinese in the burbs.

Yu's is still the great standby where quality remains the key ingredient to all the dishes. Carryouts have been great over the last 2 years and with dining out being back in full swing it's the best. Portions are great and we live that they now offer a take out large garlic chili sauce condiment. Everything from signature Walnut Shrimp to Kung Pao Chicken is still delicious!

Been coming here for years. Food is still very good but has gone down a little and has been under new management for some time now. Portions are still about the same maybe a little less but ingredients are fresh that they use in the dishes. Service was just ok. They got our order wrong and it took them awhile to bring out our appetizers. Plus, they didn’t bring all entrees to the table together. My husband had to wait awhile for his entree. Tea was luke warm not hot. Plus, one entree came to the table that none of us ordered and we had to tell them to take it back. A little disorganized with food and timing of bringing it. It was not busy so they should have been on top of things better.
