Yiyia€™S Mandarin Kitchen

The lamb skewers were so juicy and flavorful!!! Will definitely recommend. Also their hot and sour noodles are as authentic as you can get!!!

Happened upon Yiyi's, and had a great lunch. Had a large veggie tofu noodle soup and some cumin spiced lamb squewers that were unusual and great! Very nice staff.

Fun. Axel , the best Chinese/Peruvian server!

I gotta rate this place 5 stars！！！ Since i am Chinese, i gotta tell y'all this restaurant has the most authentic Chinese-Flavored skewers in SF.

anytime i am in SF this is my must stop. ......5 Star Yum!

This place is so delicious. Everything I've had so far is very flavorful! Very spicy but they are cautious about it. If you think something might be too spicy just let them know and they're happy to do it more mild.

My sister made a booking on Chinese New Year Eve but I felt really bad that my family arrived an hour late. The owner waited patiently for our arrival and cooked a very delicious meal for us. It meant quite a lot to me to have a meal with family together on CNY Eve and thus I truly appreciate the restaurant's owner gesture. To be honest, he could have cancelled our booking and I wouldn't blame him for it, as it was our fault for being late to begin with. Needless to say the service rendered during the meal was impeccable. I grew up in Asia and I can certainly vouch for the standard of Chinese food served in this restaurant. Great tasting and largely authentic. Fantastic service and great food....no reason for you not to visit this restaurant if you're looking for Chinese Food.

The most authentic Sichuan cuisine, I am willing to come back。

We went in one hour before closing on a rainy day so there wasn't many customers but we got a chance to talk to the owner. Seems like pretty passionate guy who loves cooking and he's the one who prepared our dishes. I love the fact that the dishes that I ordered, he didn't put as much salt or seasoning, this only can be done if the food is fresh enough. Some might find it bland but it's a good place if you want to get good food while cutting down your sodium intake. All the food has great aroma with all the spices that he said he sourced from the origins of where the cuisines are. I even had to take the leftover soup home because it's too good! He gave us some of the spices home. Boyfriend loves it too and had a great chat with him because they both like cooking. Would love to go back whenever I'm back to the bay area. (Side note, I heard him talking about calculus. 😂)

We really enjoyed our lunch here last week. We had the Cashew chicken, the chicken lo mein and the sweet and sour shrimp. He also gave us 4 complementary eggrolls. The food was delicious. I would definitely go back.

Very convenient to eat BBQ with hungry panda now

Miserable kitchen service. Ordered two dishes. One came out and the other had some sort of difficulty. After waiting for around twenty minutes we asked for status and they hadn't even started it. We cancelled it and left.

I popped in for lunch on a whim and definitely plan to go back. The service was quick and friendly and the spicy fried chicken was delicious. The lunch combo is only $9, and it’s a lot of food. Granted there are a lot of great Chinese options in this neighborhood, but this is one of my new favorites.

Good dishes! The waiters are helpful. The most authentic Szechuan restaurant in SF!!!!

There are too many white people coming here. STOP. This restaurant is quality Chinese food. Leave MY restaurant alone, I AM the one living here, not some white guy who wants KFC chicken. GO AWAY.
