Yan Min Kitchen East Islip Reviews
Great Chinese restaurant! A ton of food at a reasonable price. Not too salty either (one of my complaints of many generic Chinese restaurants). Pork Bun is a must have (limited supply depending on the day). Owners are nice people who treated us with respect knowing we won’t return for a while because we are not locals. Give it a try and decide for yourself. Special recommendations are pork bun and house chiu fun (stir fried rice noodle).

In short this place is the best "fast food" Chinese Food I've had on the Island! I've been coming to this place for over 10 years and I've never been disappointed! Friendly staff, Awesome Food and Great Prices!!! What else can you ask for :D
You get an A for quality food. Busy place. Need to slow down a tad and be attentive.
Egg fried rice and the lo mane is awesome! Tastes amazing. Also the expirences I had with them, there really nice.
Just has always been my favorite Chinese place♡
Food is good and taste fresh.
This restaurant has the best food and top of the line service! They went way above in helping and serving us. I highly recommend them.
Just ordered chicken egg foo young, delicious. Fresh tasting and real good. A cut above most other Chinese take outs. Thank you.

Love the soup noodles. Wonton, egg drop soup. Excellent (warm) evening meal. Also shrimp roll, didn't care for the taste of oil.
Update: The problem mentioned below seems to have been resolved. I haven't had this problem in a very long time! The food is very good but there has never been a place worse at estimating time. This is the 4th time in a row that I've had to wait more than an hour past the time they said the food will be ready. i made a small ($35) order tonight and been told it would be about a half hour, yet here I am waiting 80 minutes later, and still no food. This was the same experience each time. Whatever time they tell you, add an hour to it, unless you enjoy standing around for an hour waiting for your order.
The food was good. It's a take out only place.

Ok food, terrible customer service
It can be challenging to find a quality take-out Chinese restaurant in Suffolk County near Islip. This particular establishment consistently serves decent food in comparison to other nearby Chinese restaurants. Additionally, customers should be aware that a small surcharge of one to five cents is applied whether paying with cash or credit card. It makes no sense except to line their pockets.
Moved from Deer Park, my Chinese restaurant there was Seasons. Happy Family had a few small shrimp, a few small scallops, and imitation lobster. Seasons was by far, better. Chicken and broccoli was fair. Fried rice was good, as was the boneless ribs. Egg roll was well done and dry. Looks like I will be taking a ride the next time I yearn for Chinese.

I wont eat sesame chicken. Or any chicken dish. Chicken is non existent .i purchased a large order of ribs 10pcs 3 pcs were uneaten because they burned to a crisp.plus the price was increased by $2
Was promised good in 30 minutes. Took over an hour. Then they forgot to include some food. Had to go back and wait again. To top it off, food wasn't great. Very dissappointed.
Never tried establishment but ordered food and was given wrong location landmarks by business owners. Our intention was another establishment we frequented in the past while doing laundry task. I intend on paying the bill even though there was a misunderstanding of location diagnostics. Perhaps I'll try their amenities.

Food may be good but the lady who works there is extremely rude nasty and cranky , asked for broccoli on the side she shook her head went n talked to the chef came back and just said NO. Will never go again , terrible customer service
Waited 30 minutes past when order was supposed to be done, got home and dumplings were ice cold and chicken and mixed vegetables had zero chicken in it… never again
If I could give it negative stars I would. The person at the counter had a chip on her shoulder and was very rude and condescending. If you don’t want to work there - then don’t. Just lost a customer
Brought food from here yesterday and made me and my husband sick with an upset stomach my husband ended up vomiting after he ate this food from this place. I use to buy a lot because their food was always good and fresh but this time I don’t know what happened with the food maybe the chicken was expired or they use extremely dirty oil to cook.
