Yo's - Liverpool

The restaurant was quiet and friendly the waiter was delightful. We opted for the banquet deal incredible value for money. No matter how hungry you are you will leave full!

Food was barely room temperature. Although the rice and vegetables were swallowable, they tasted like they had been cooked in old stale oil. The chicken tasted like it had come as a cheap job lot from the side door of a factory farm for processing old hens. Even the cat wouldn't eat it. You've been warned.

Never again, soup was gloopy and tasteless with 1 tiny bit chicken. Spring rolls were soft and greasy, sui mai was floating in water, prawn toast miniscule. Chicken fried rice horrendous with hardly any chicken. Onions in chicken curry were uncooked with small pieces processed chicken. prawn crackers tough as not cooked enough. Fried rice was of cheap chippy standard. Extremely expensive but I don't mind paying for quality however the meals were poor, under seasoned with raw onions, miniscule watery and greasy dim sum and very poor value for money overall. Totally ruined a celebration meal. Never again.

Last weekend we ate here, and it was a great meal Tonight I am in Birmingham, so came to a highly recommended place in Chinatown. Had 1 overlapping dish pork and prawn dumpling) and Yo won hands down We had really unusual dishes in Yo and they were soooo good I would highlight a pork and aubergine dish and the pigs ear starter. The staff were concerned we were not going to like the more adventurous dishes and one was not to my taste, but that is tofu for your) It's not in the city centre but it's not far!!

May well be something for everybody. A lot of the old favourites here as well as intriguing dishes that don’t fall within the classic “British” Chinese menu. We, as a group of 7, individually decided we’d go a tad more experimental. This choice provided a great way to share some new eating experiences even if we didn’t opt for the most extreme by the frank translation standards! Very glad we did too as the appetisers and mains were delightful and served with charm. There’s real apparent skill in putting the servings together. Flavoursome could well be an understatement and it’s all well balanced. We ate relatively early and the immaculate restaurant was quiet. It’s evident, though, that this is a place that attracts the local Chinese and Asian residents. Well worth seeking out in the burgeoning Kensington redevelopment area.
