One of my favorite Portland area restaurants for Chinese cuisine. Large portions, excellent service.
Tried it for the first time, pretty good. We are trying other Chinese Restaurants due to our favorite closing & reopening with new food/ owners. Yen's was good we will definitely keep this one on our list
One of my friends from Ohio loves Chinese American food, including Lemon Chicken, Honey Walnut Shrimp, Egg Foo Young, Broccoli Chicken and Egg Drop Soup. Yen's is his favorite Chinese restaurant in the Portland Metro Area. I, on the other hand like Shiitake Black Mushroom Beef, War Wonton, Shrimp with Lobster Sauce and Moo Goo Gai Pan. As a Chinese American, I also love their Tomato Beef Curry Chow Mein. Chinese American food is it's own authentic cuisine. It's down home country comfort food for some of us. Yen's is our favorite Chinese restaurant to meet half way since the menu is quite diverse, and the portions are large. If you don't see what you want on the menu, you can ask them if they can make it for you, especially if you know the Chinese name. For diversity, they have an American Food section on their menu, which includes hamburgers, fries, mashed potatoes, grilled cheese sandwiches, fish & chips, and chicken nuggets. This works when your dinner date only eats American food. I must admit, Yen's food is really good. Yen's is open for indoor dining. They have 4 rows of booths, which helps with social distancing and privacy. Yen's also has a large private dining room perfect for meetings or parties. Diagonal street parking makes it easy to park.
I have ordered take out several times now. The prices are a bit steep but the quality and portion sizes mitigate some of the high cost. The egg rolls are special and worth the price. The won ton soup (only available in the large size) was spectacular. It was filled with meat and shrimp with not too much of vegetable fillers. I love won ton soup and this is one of the best I've had. Beef & broccoli was good and so was the pork fried rice. Definitely going to work my way through their menu. Note: They have value lunch prices if you order before 3:00 PM.
