Another excellent meal here a few weeks ago. The restaurant was quite busy but service was good, the owner really goes that extra mile and this rubs off on his staff. I can highly recommend the chicken river kwai with special noodles.

Awful! Not at all authentic Thai food. It was a busy Saturday evening. Tom Kha had been split with chilli oil on top and lacked flavour with too much coconut milk it was a small portion with big slices of red onion. As for the Pad Thai noodles!! These were very poor, just noodles with soya sauce and a few bean sprouts rather than the flavorful dish with vegetables and tofu which should have been served. The Massaman curry had pineapple which is weird! The only saving grace is that Singha beer was available. The deep fried wontons overcooked. I have eaten here several times before and now I would definitely avoid.

Very disappointed when booked table for tonight to find many more tables had been crammed in to the normally busy restaurant. This meant it was so crowded staff had difficulty moving between the tables. Food was excellent and staff perfect but not the experience I booked to have.

We ordered a Takeaway. Crispy seaweed was crispy Kale with sprinkling of sugar and 10 % seaweed. Chicken satay starter was very dry and tough, even with sauce. The yan ribs were very tough almost inedible. So disappointing 😞 we used to go regularly before covid. Won't be back. What happened to the food at Yan Restaurant Westhill?

Terrible. Ordered special duck which turned out to be aromatic duck mixed in with plum sauce straight from a bottle.. there was no onion or veg only strips of cucumber?! Bland and sone the duck was inedible. For third visit in a row the rice was old and chewy even after I was promised if it would be freshly cooked. I checked the rice in reception area and instantly knew it wasn’t up to par. Instead of replacing the rice the manager offered to take the whole meal back and refund without even considering to only replace the rice. 11 minutes from order to receiving meal only indicates that microwaves are the method used which was evident with my partners lemon chicken which was also a laughable standard. I’m 29 years in the catering trade and i know Chinese are never perfect but the price was horrendously expensive for the quality produced. We won’t be back.

We had the two course set lunch menu. Reasonable choice across both starter and main courses with beef, chicken and vegetable options. You then have a choice of steamed rice, fried rice or noodles as an accompaniment. Everything was piping hot, well presented and a decent portion size. All in all we thought it was very good and excellent value for money. .

We had a take away from Yan's this evening we were so disappointed with both meals. I had the Lemon Chicken it was so salty & bits of the chicken were tough. Other meal was number 219 prawns with mushrooms he thought so much more onions than prawns & tasteless. I am sorry to have to write this review but this was supposed to be a treat & it certainly was not.

We have come here for our child free dinners the last 6 months. It’s pricey but usually worth it. Very disappointing this evening, we had the banquet for 2. The main meal 4 small pieces of chicken per dish. I asked for plain noodles it came and I said I asked for plain as to which I got a response, no you didn’t. However it was exchanged and the noodles I did get were hard, crunchy and dry. For the price we were very disappointed and wouldn’t return.

Called in with a couple of colleagues, had the sesame prawn toast to start and the duck in plum sauce for main with the chicken and pineapple rice just to try something new. It was all very tasty and well presented.

Visited on a Saturday evening. Greeted by very pleasant young waitress and shown to our table. Food was below average, congealed and gloopy sauces, not authentic food in our opinion. Had the feeling it was microwaved to order resulting in a very disappointing dining experience. Wine (house white) was also unpleasant. Had high hopes for Yan but unfortunately for us it did not meet our expectations

Unfortunately a poor experience from what is usually very good. Not one smile from any member of staff the whole night. Ordered 5 drinks and 2 came but when asked where the other 3 were I was told they had no lemonade! They couldn’t even come and let us know and ask what else we would like. Crispy duck was tough and tasteless and not worth £20. Not one member of staff barely exchanged a word the whole time. Very disappointing experience and wouldn’t probably go back!

A Mother’s Day visit to this restaurant was a big disappointment. We had dumplings for starter which were tasty enough then things went downhill. The three main courses were a beef black bean dish, a fried lamb dish and a green chicken curry. If you had worn a blindfold you would not have been able to tell them apart and the lamb especially was a weird rubbery texture with a gluppy sauce. The curry was bland with no heat whatsoever and the black bean dish was tasteless. The side of Singapore noodles was very small and overpriced. The only redeeming factor was the friendly young waitress. My advice is go elsewhere, we certainly won’t be back as could prepare a tastier Asian meal at home!!!

As we were in westhill we thought we’d try Yan. The food was great and service was quick however we weren’t impressed with the attitude of (maybe manager?) Ciprian who we spotted multiple times speaking down to younger workers who were new to the job and weren’t given the time, patience or respect. If this is how they are being treated in-front of customers then I dread to think what it’s like behind closed doors. Sadly, this atmosphere angered us and lead us to leave early. I’m not one to complain but life is hard enough for young people and they don’t deserve to be spoken to in this way, especially when doing nothing wrong.

After having a lovely meal from the neighbouring Szechuan takeaway earlier this week, thought I'd try a meal at Yan Oriental Restaurant today. Sadly, I can't comment on their food as I wasn't allowed to eat there. Not because they were full – only one table was occupied – but because I only wanted one main meal and was told I wasn't eating enough to warrant me sitting at a table. Speaking to the owner, she explained that with their costs – such as washing the table cloth – it wasn't financially viable for them to let me eat in. While I sympathise that they won't make a lot of money out of my one meal, I think they're very shortsighted. I may have returned in the future with a group of people or written a great review about them, which would help their business. I explained this to her but she didn't seem interested. So, instead, I come away irritated by their attitude and writing a negative Google review. It's also likely I'll mention this experience to people I know, which will create bad press for them. I'm always amazed when businesses like this make such bad choices. Sometimes, you need to speculate to accumulate, and I really don't believe they would have lost a great deal of money by letting me eat there.

Enjoyable Chinese restaurant serving up Thai food too. Quality of the food was excellent, good value too. Staff very pleasant and attentive. But the restaurant loses a star for lack of a tipping facility through a card payment. If you do it....the workers on the ground don't get it (apparently). Felt like the family were being 'huried along' a little too. Not a big deal though and never did we feel under undue pressure.

Staying at the hotel in Westhill for work, this has been an excellent recommendation from my taxi driver. Last time we had the set menu B and was so good I visited again tonight, and had the chicken curry with house special friend rice. Really tasty, generous portion size and well priced. Reassuringly clean with friendly staff who were there when needed but without invading space. Quiet on a weeknight with good spacing between tables. Will certainly be back. If you're not feeling like going out then certainly worth a take away. Thanks.

If you are a vegetarian stay away! I recently ordered a vegetarian dish and found a piece of chicken. This is not acceptable and I was horrified. Please seriously review your cross-contamination measures (if any). Poorly handled when notified. Do not recommend and will not return.

I've been using duo duo for Takeaways for years. It has always been my favourite Chinese but unfortunately this time (and last time) it has been disappointing. The chicken curry was still good but unfortunately the salt and pepper chips were a big disappointment. They looked like leftovers that had been reheated and had hardy any onions/chillies in them. I have had much better salt and pepper chips in other Chinese Takeaways. They really need to improve this big time!

Ordered the basic chicken curry and chips to see how that was, as a guage lol. It was very good, tasty and nice and hot (temperature not spicy). Randomly had mushrooms in it, rather than peas but still tasted good. Order was ready early, bonus! Its a bit pricey but so is everything nowadays 🙄. Well done. I will try another dish next time for my review.

Disappointed with our meal, both my partner and myself had to ask if they would top up the buffet selection. We both got a first plate of food but by the time we were ready for a 2nd a lot of the trays were empty! We waited just short of 40 minutes for fresh food to be put out and then we had to ask for a sweet and more drinks. The staff were not busy only 3 tables of couples in the restaurant yet they seemed reluctant to actually serve us. We will not be in a hurry to return here which is a shame as it would have been a treat had the service been better.
