This is not the Chinese food you are looking for. Bizarre sizes for the ribs and chicken balls. No fish sauce when asked. Bizarre.

Walked in and asked how long it would take to get some lunch. Was told 10 minutes if I ordered simple fare. Ordered chicken balls and fried noodles. Was ready in about 7 minutes. Large portions and excellent food. Definitely recommend!

Should be called Yucky Yucky! Food was flavourless and greasy. Woman who took our order was very brusque. Had to wait 45 minutes for soup and noodles. Don’t waste your money.

Very nice food. Looking at quantity and quality I feel it’s very reasonable. I felt bad to see it was slow business so my request to help our local businesses. We have very less options in Kenora so we need to motivate our local businesses. I am from Toronto and will this place soon but I am grateful to this restaurant for providing good food. I enjoyed its yummy 😊

Best Chinese I've ever had. The chicken balls and dry shrimp were still crispy like 20 minutes after we picked it up. And stayed crispy the whole time they were doused in sauce. The food was made super quickly and great service! I'd recommend this to everyone!

Yummy is very satisfying!!! Tasty combination plate. Generous portions even for the big eater. Sauces on the side allows you to take only what you want. We are normally dine in people however after a long hard day take out turned out to be a great choice. We tried yummy cause the competitor across the street was closed. Yummy now has another faithful customer. Great job guys!!! I could have criticized small issues but not worth the effort. They did a great meal. We were all full. There was lots of left over for next day and reasonably priced.

Got the combo plate with fried rice, chicken balls, sweet n sour shrimp, spring roll, and veggies. Tasty generous portions. A welcome break from eating burgers and sandwiches for the past 2 days of being on the road. There’s actually decent size chicken in the chicken balls. Same with shrimp. Sauce on the side so you don’t have soggy battered shrimp and chicken. Only 4 stars as the dining area is very dated but clean. Service was really good. For what you get in the beautiful small town of Kenora, Yummy Yummy so far is, well, yummy!

Yucky Yucky!! This place had the audacity to waste my time by saying that they can deliver, and spent enough time taking my order. They wanted me to pay $50 delivery fee simply because it was snowing.. (the delivery would have taken 10 minutes) The lady at the counter was so rude that I was getting anxiety so I simply left as soon as she handed me my order. As I not only had to ask for napkins and soy sauce (This should be always given to us since we are ordering take-out for a reason. We were at a hotel, but even if we would be at home, we still need cutlery, plates, napkins and soy sauce. Sher was so rude so we quickly exited the premises. To find out that there were no plates, no napkins, no soy sauce. Only reason that I even gave them a one star is because I dont think that I could leave a zero star review. #PriceGouging #Profiteering #Extortionist

The woman who runs this place is soo so lovely.. I have never met someone whos so welcoming and excited to see a stranger. I order a combination plate for pick up and they give enough for two meals. They really give you the full bang for your buck. Also, big plus for me, their chicken balls are for sure white meat and REAL. I hope this restaurant is doing well because they deserve it.

Recently moved to this area and trying all local Chinese rants to find our favourite. Ordered same dishes from another rant way down the road several times so I have a comparison. In a word Yuck! Greasy undercooked Spring rolls and way overcooked chicken/pork/veg in deluxe dishes. Noodles were pasty and undercooked. Shrimp was definitely thawed and re-thawed based on texture. I give it a 1 as veal was okay and they were generous with protein (the rant down the street only gives 2 shrimp in there deluxe veg) but jeez, I m sure the staff goes elsewhere when they re hungry.

We enjoyed the sweet-and-sour pork as well as the chicken noodle dish. We werent very impressed with the plain fried rice and would recommend trying one of the other ones. Portion sizes were very large.

May be disappointed if you come for the buffet. Dry noodles, no flavor. Sweet and sour spare ribs well overcooked. Deep fried foods such as chicken balls and shrimp were fine. No complaints. Bottle drinks only. All in all the buffet needs variety, most of it now has the same flavor.
