Yim’s Wok Restaurant

This is the premier Chinese food spot around here. Others could only hope to attain what Yims has

I come here for lunch and it’s like 10 min away from my job but def worth the drive. They use real meat, have gym menu for those that want to eat healthy and everything is flavorful. Anything I tried was good from chicken & broccoli, shrimp n hoisin sauce, boneless ribs n soups. Def recommend it

Albeit it the food was made quickly it was not made with perfection. There was no real flavor and the items did not taste as fresh as they could be. I will not be returning.

I have been going to Yims since 1996. They have good healthy food BUT their service is absolutely terrible. They treat their customers like a pure number. They could care less about you, your name or their attitude… but they do have good tasting steamed food. It’s really a double edged sword. Godspeed!

I grown up in Jericho and I currently work in the city. Every week, I would always visit Yim’s. The food is always so fresh and no restaurant can beat their freshness. The food never fails to disappoint me. This restaurant is really good and I recommend chicken and broccoli, sesame chicken, and the steamed food.

i found a hair in my food.
the next time i went in i told them and she had an attitude and didn’t do anything. when i asked to speak to the manager she took my number, but no one ever called.
i went in again and asked what happened, she said she had spoken to the manager, who apparently is not there ever, and that they had said that they know me and i always cause problems. so i asked how did the manager even know who i was? she said your the only customer who orders orange flavor chicken. highly unlikely… especially since i hadn’t been there in years… needless to say it simply wasn’t true and i had never complained about anything.
ridiculous and pathetic.

My husband, 3 year old, 1 year old and I went for a casual dinner here… thinking it was family friendly. Boy, was I wrong. My daughter ate some rice and some of it ended up dropping on the floor. The women at the front stared at us for 5 minutes while we ate and then walked over to us to yell at us for making a mess. She embarrassed us in front of the whole restaurant… very unprofessional! My husband ended up cleaning up the mess himself so there was no reason for her to make a fuss. Really bad customer service!

They take card, which is a plus. A lot of Chinese restaurants strictly take cash. I love the fact that they have a menu associated with Powerhouse right next door. If I am short on meal prep, I come here for steamed chicken, broccoli and rice! The service is quick and the prices are reasonable

The general tsao is really bomb. Hefty amount of chicken. There is a great crunch and plenty of meat, not just batter. Lunch special is 5.95 $ also

Open since 1986, Yim’s Wok has long been an institution in the neighborhood… but not necessarily in a good way. When I was growing up, Yim’s was where my Dad would go to pick up dinner if he was just too tired to drive to one of the better Chinese takeout places that we preferred. We didn’t care much for their food, but sometimes, if all other options imploded and no one felt ambitious enough to suggest something else, we trusted them enough to buy a few eggrolls and a (greasy) pint of chicken with broccoli; it was that kind of place.
It seemed like the place mainly stayed in business by catering to members of nearby Gold’s Gym by offering a few dishes of steamed protein and plain white rice– you know, stuff that’s hard to screw up.
But– at the risk of dating myself– that was a pretty long time ago. A few years ago, Yim’s remodeled, and it seems like their standards for their food went up considerably at around the same time. When I was there a few days ago (after a many-​year absence), it looked clean and new; the kind of take-​out spot you actually wouldn’t mind sitting down at for a while. My order of Beef Lo Mein and an egg roll, while not the best I’ve had, was still good, and definitely hit the spot. I’d definitely be willing to come back and try some of their other dishes.
I don’t know if it’s new owners, a new philosophy, or what, but it seems like this place has really turned around in recent years. I can’t give it more than three stars since my recent meal wasn’t stellar– just perfectly fine– but I applaud whoever is responsible for making this faithful old spot on Robbins Lane worth patronizing again.

I’ve been a customer for close to 40 years
Was a great place for delivery
Seems like the original owners sold to a amateur
Food is a no star
Prices up
Portion size down
Save this place for a snowy night

Whenever I was craving chinese food, this was my go to place. I tried ordering the lunch special on a Sunday (which I guess they don’t have so I had to get the dinner combo) almost 11 bucks for pork fried rice, chicken with broccoli and an eggroll.
Portion size was just ok.
The food was disappointing. The chicken & broccoli was overpowered by soy sauce

If you live in the Syosset/​Plainview area, you already know this is the best Chinese in town.

Food is ok. However, when a customer was in there and they didn’t like how they were ordering we caught the cook hack a nice one into the stir fryer. Not good to let customers see. They thought the curtain was closed but it wasn’t. It also did not help considering I studied in Asia for years so I speak Japanese, Korean and Chinese.

I come here often for lunch with coworkers. I’m giving it five stars because for a chinese take out place, its probably the best furnished and cleanest one I’ve ever been in. There’s even a nice sitting area with a TV.
The food comes out fast and fresh. I usually place the order on my two mile drive from my office to the restaurant and its usually ready as soon as I get there!

This has been my family’s go-​to Chinese place since we moved here. The quality is always top notch and prices are fair.
My favorite dish is the sliced white meat chicken with brown sauce over white rice platter, which is basically chicken & broccoli without the broccoli. Always delicious.

I have worked in Woodbury for over 8 years and have been looking for good chinese delivery place well … I HAVE FOUND IT! First time i have really enjoyed chinese food at my office and have not gone into a food coma.

Portions are just alright.
To be honest, the last few times I ordered from here, the food was not that great. Chicken with broccoli was on the bland side, lo mein seemed old, the only good thing was the wontons in spicy peanut sauce. The sauce was delicious.
Today I ordered the chicken and broccoli lunch special with brown rice and was so surprised at how good it was.
Hoping to get good chinese like this consistently.

One of the best take-​out; eat-​in, Chinese restaurants I’ve been to. I’ve been Eating here for years and I love that they cater to the health-​conscious athlete. They have steamed dishes of every imaginable combination … Beef, chicken, egg whites, ect. And if you wanna eat the conventional high calorie Chinese dishes, they have those too.

They’ve stepped up their game in here. On the last few trips here the food was noticeably better than other local spots. Steamed dumplings that don’t make you feel like you’re eating a thick ravioli and a light egg drop soup stuck out the most. The interior also looks new and fresh. Albeit, there is not a lot of décor, the side dining room is nice enough to sit down and enjoy your meal, without feeling cramped, if you have the time.
Also, they have new blinds! No more newspapers over the window to block the sun! Woo hoo! Def my new local take-​out spot, even though the parking sitch still stinks.
