Yummy Cafe - Seattle

Hot and acidic suppe was very delicious and the garlic green beans were so good! I wish I lived closer to eating there more often

Great food and fast friendly service. We also enjoyed the delicious tea!

I was very much in the mood for simple, no frills Chinese food. I was also cold so I definitely was in need of some hot soup. Luckily they serve up some free hot tea upon sitting down. This is a welcome start. To warm up a large shared bowl of 'Hot And Sour Soup ' soup was in order. Definitely hot with some tangy ness to which hit the spot. For an entree I was lured away from the basic fare by their specials menu. One thing that jumped out was the was the Sweet and Sour Pork chop. It reminded me of a similar entree I 've had at a Thai restaurant I used to frequent but not quite as good. The flavor was there for the most part but nothing in the way of crispiness. Also I found it kinda lame that they charged an additional $1.50 for a small rice to go with it. The aforementioned Thai spot that has that same meal comes lots of rice and is slightly cheaper actually. The rice is important because the Pork chop is pretty saucy so the rice helps with getting more of the sauce. The service was good, but our server was a Tablewatcher . The kind of server that typically when it 's slow they 're just watching the tables for signs they 're ready to leave or need something. I appreciate being mindful of the tables you 're managing, but staring makes it weird. Overall probably about what you 'd expect a sizeable eat in Chinese food spot with some free tea, but tacked on prices elsewhere. Wasn 't looking for exceptional which is fitting, Yummy did hit the spot, it was exceptionally average.

What a little gem of a place! Super sweet folks that own the restaurant.. they even gave us some complimentary pot-stickers for being new neighbors and helped us walk our large takeout order back to the office! Food was delicious... highly recommend this establishment. :

To me, Yummy Cafe is a reminder of east coast NY/NJ Chinese takeout. Is it the best most authentic representation of regional Chinese cuisine that I've had? Not really (but admittedly I could be ordering all wrong). But it does give me a heavy dose of nostalgic goodness every time I eat there. Some of my friends love this place and I have certainly enjoyed my meals here with them.
