Great Place to go for Lunch! – I have been to Chef Yu twice and will be going again this afternoon with a group of 8. the first time i been to this place I loved it. The decor is nice the food is great and they give you a nice amount to feel full. The price is so reasonable for what you get. If you like Chineese then this is the place for you. Chef Yu - keep up the good work!! ~Missaquarian

pools of flavorless grease – I ordered the chicken with eggplant and received a flavorless glob of mushy eggplant swimming in a pool of grease. The chicken had some flavor but was also drenched in the grease. I estimate that the plate contained about 1/2 cup of pure oil. My dinner partner ordered a beef dish that was slightly less greasy. If you are planning for a heart-attack, this is the restaurant to help you get there.

Great drinks – The ambience is great; the food pretty good; the wait staff fantastic. I was truly surprized with find this on 8th Av. When I return to the city I'll dine there again with my friends. Another thing the drinks were pretty cheap because of the hour I had dinner.
