Man! This food is incredible.We are the fried prawns, and sweet and sour chicken. Bystanders came in to order the same because it smelled so good! I’d also recommend getting the iced tea with a moon & a monkey on. That was the best iced tea I ever had.We sat at the table outside and there are two more tables inside. It’s lovely there.
The restaurant is tucked away in a market place just off the main road(Jan Smuts). Its well lit, clean and the staff are friendly. On the other hand, the food, although having a very strong fragrance, unfortunately did not have much flavour and was quiet bland. Maybe it was my prepared dish on the day but the restaurant is popular with locals. The price of the food is in line with other Chinese restaurants (R70-R100).
Not once have I ever had a bad experience .... for over a year I have been ordering food from Yung Chen ... it is always so delicious!! A definite MUST
Nah, not happy. Ordered chow mein last night - could have just used noodles, bits of limp lettuce and meat slivers. Pity, perfect location for me 2 b a regular.
Fantastic chinese food. Well priced.
Simple menu in a quaint setting off Jan Smuts avenue. The food is fantastic and enjoyed by loyal customers who have kept going back for many years. Take out is most popular but we love sitting out on a lovely afternoon or evening. They do not serve alcohol but we are always welcome to bring our own wine.
Good food. 🍜
Had the Crispy Beef. It was delicious. Definitely going back for more.
This is our go-to local chinese takeaway. The quality varies a bit from time to time, but generally the meals are of a good quality. Value for money is good. Give them a try if you are in the area. Our favs are sweet and sour pork, black bean beef / chicken and crispy chicken.
Good value Chinese takeaway.
You know what your getting. Good, flavoursome and consistent takeaway.
Delicious Chinese food. Mainly catering for takeaways with limited number of tables for eat-in.
Yung Chen is delicious. Kung fu kitchen really has nothing on the quality of food which is produced out of this kitchen.I recently ordered an array of food off of their menu and each item was well cooked, not overly cooked like a squash ball. The flavours of the food are also brilliant.Do yourself a favour and give it a try!
Excellent authentic food & extremely reasonable. Also very friendly. I will definitely be going back.
The best vegan place in rivonia so much to choose from and you wont be disappointed with their service and food, love the food
Great Chinese
Excellent authentic and high quality food at a great price. Mostly great for takeaway (you need to phone in though) and for a very small group a the place.
Tucked away and easy to pass by, but hard to forget. Super reasonable prices with lovely tasty food. A must for anyone that enjoys Asian food
Probably the best Chinese food in town. Preferably take out. Friendly staff. Crispy chicken with egg fried rice is a winner.
Five star for the price! Really nice food and nice people as well. It is one of my staples
Best food ever
Absolutely delicious!!!! I want it for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Thank you so much.
Chicken sauce was amazing. Veggie options could do well if we had option to make our own. Overall, chinese hiddengem.
Great food, good price. Yummy yummy! Would definitely recommend.
Wow! My best Chinese Restaurant. Friendly staff and huge portions. Highly recommend.
The food was amazing
Ive been coming here for 5 years and the food is always consistently great! Whether its getting quick take away or eating in, Yung Chen is always on my list for Chinese food. Their black pepper beef is fantastic!!
Very good food at very good prices. You can eat in if you prefer but primarily a takeaway restaurant. The owner is present most of the time.
Love the food and service here. Decent homely and affordable. Great for a quick lunchtime meal.
Always fresh ingredients and best flavors. This is my favorite Chinese food restaurant
Best Chinese takeaway in Sandton. All items on menu are delicious. Good service. Good food. Good prices.
During peak tines the food can take a while to prepare but IT IS WELL WORTH THE WAIT.This is our favourite Chinese Take away by far! And we drive from the other side of town...
Great value & nice takeaways
Amazing crispy beef and incredible deep fried calamari. Their prices are also very reasonable!
Amazing food for great prices.
Always great food and very friendly service.
Never disappoint, delicious quality food and the staff are friendly and efficient.
This evening i bought crispy and curry meal , i was totally satisfied with the service the only thing that disappointed me was the curry meal because it tasted old and had a little bit of sticky soup in it. Another thing was the crispy i coulndnt even taste the beef because there was alot of that chutney sauce. I am very disappointed as it was my first experience with Yung Chen restaurant .☹
Always amazing food and friendly service. Lovit!
Excellent Chinese and the food is usually fresh and tasty. Quick service
Their food is of good quality and very enjoyable. The best.
Ive been going to Yung Chen for the last 5 years since I found it. They are consistent with their cooking style and taste.
If you want Chinese food and enjoy this is the perfect place to eat
Best chinese food ive ever had, authentic and reasonably priced
The crispy prawns is my favourite dish on the menu, very addictive! Portions of all dishes are generous, so get them to share.
For a quick meal in an informal setting where the food is authentic and well prepared.

Oh wow. The very best chinese food ever. There salted prawns are to die for and there crispy chicken and beef are divine.
The BEST crispy beef in JHB!
The salt and pepper prawns give me life!
Not as good as their other branch.I do not normally complained, but the fried noodles was simply noodles, soy sauce and chicken, nothing else, quite a disparity in quality as well as counter service which was rather cold and unwelcoming from their Melrose branch!Guess it works for an uninspiring take away!#MiguelChan
Best Chinese takeways Ive had. Excellent service and excellent food.
Small takeaway spot. Not huge flavours, but orders are always fresh.
An absolute must. Food is freshly made and portions are great.
