In Short – Traditional Chinese lamps brighten an inviting showroom that features framed scrolls lined with characters of the ancient Asian language hanging on warm red walls. An impressive aquarium sits against another wall while tables-for-four are adorned with white table linens. The menu includes traditional Chinese dishes along with special entrees like pan fried duck with Mandarin sauce, Shanghai-style lobster, crushed red pepper beef and double cooked pork with wheat buns. A full bar serves sake and other alcoholic beverages.

Good experience all round
by downtownPlano
Checked this place out tonight. Arrived early for my res. and had a cocktail at the bar. Bartender was knowledgeable and made a few suggestions on the menu which we had been looking at online.
Dining room was full at 745 when I arrived. We were seated at 8 in a nice table, with painted glass screens separating us from the next group of diners. Tried the hot sake, next time maybe ill try one of the flavored ones.
Their drinks are kinda high, 8$ for Voss and 7-8$ for the tea selections. There is a good cabernet from Argentina for 9.
First course we went with the ahi summer rolls, hot sour soup, and soup dumplings. The Xiao Long Bao was everything we were promised, the soup was fair, we felt it was missing something, maybe lemon or vinegar. The rolls were interesting, the texture perfect, the citrus dipping sauce tasty. I felt the spicy ahi tuna slightly missed the mark and would have preferred just raw ahi maybe with wasabi or ginger sauce.
For dinner I chose the Mandarin duck 22$ and my love chose the Flat noodles 8$. The duck was flash seared and then braised and very tender, though just lightly seasoned. The menu said fresh vegetables but I received roasted potatoes instead, bummer. Flat noodles with chicken were excellent and well portioned.
Overall very good and exceeded expectations.

Best Chinese food in Texas!!
by briancoy
I love chinese food, and have eaten almost everywhere, and I believe Yao Fuzi's is quite simply the best chinese food in Texas!! An upscale chinese restaurant, similar to PF Chang's, but far better food, and more unique dishes. I've been several times, ordered several different things, and have never been disappointed. The soup dumplings are one of a kind, and you can't go wrong w/any of the specials. A little pricey, but well worth it. Very friendly waiters and owners make you feel very comfortable and welcome. I will most definately return as often as possible.
- Pros: Exceptional food.
- Cons: Price

Xiao long bao!
by eplya
Xiao long bao ! This dish alone is worth of visiting "Y.F.C" again and again,as well as many other things on and "off" the menu.
It helps a lot that place is very nice inside and stuff does their job right.
Skip that P.F.Chang trip and try the real deal!
- Pros: SIMPLY THE BEST CHINESE IN DALLAS
- Cons: NONE
