Not sure who these local guides are who are leaving 5 star reviews of this restaurant but my experience in this place was underwhelming at best. Never had super sweet calamari before and it did not taste good. Sweet and sour shrimp was super sweet and hong kong noodles was acceptable at best. I realize food is personal preference and some people might find these super sweet items fun to eat but i did not appreciate the food at all. In fact every other Chinese restaurant i have tried in pleasanton livermore area is better than this place in my opinion. This is a relatively expensive Chinese restaurant with good ambience. However i was a victim of false 5 star reviews in here. Food was just not good!

Delicious food every time. Always fresh. Very nice restaurant for dining in. Food stays hot for takeout too.
This is our favorite Chinese restaurant in the Bay Area. The food is well prepared, I especially like the vegetable mixture that comes with some dishes(lightly sautéed pawns with vegetables in light sauce, and home style tofu). It’s has generous amount of broccoli, bokchoy, cabbage, carrots and asparagus in the mix, cut size is right, cooked tender enough yet still remains its crispness. I don’t even know how to cook it well like this in my own kitchen…we have came to this place for at least 6 times and have tried different dishes. The food quality has been consistent, which is really important… :) the price is very reasonable, given the food quality, downtown location, parking lot in the back, and of course, something also tickles my fancy, white table linens. Of all things, I haven’t mentioned about the service… that’s also brought me to write this review today. We always felt being treated nicely and warmly at this place. Today we came for lunch, I asked my husband to order me a Yuxiang pork, and he mistakenly ordered a different dish and we didn’t notice that until the dishes came. I was initially surprised, this is not what I ordered… and the waiter quickly apologized and said they will make the dish I wanted. My husband told them that he made the mistake at ordering and we will pay for it. The waiter right away told us not to worry about it. Coming from a hospitality profession, this smooth gesture of always make your customers feel right, is a gold medal. Very nice people work at this restaurant, you can tell. The restaurant is clean, and artfully decorated. It has a nice wine bar and lovely cocktail selections. I can’t wait to go back again and try something new! In the meantime, thank you!

By far the best Chinese food restaurant the East Bay! Egg rolls, amazing. Broccoli beef, the best I've had. The sweet and sour chicken, I could eat that every day. The service was the best service I've ever had, anywhere! Wonderful dining area, with views of downtown Pleasanton, nice.. We need an Andy & Yu's in the East, East bay!Parking: Good size parking lot right behind the restaurant, with free parking.

Amazing ambience, service and food. Loved the seats near the glass windows. Reservations recommended. Great for large parties of people.Vegetarian food is very well mentioned in the menu. Quite a few options to choose from. I especially loved the spring rolls and hot and sour soup. I’d highly recommend trying out food at Andy and Yu’s!Parking: Parking lot right next to the restaurant.Kid-friendliness: Spacious kid-friendly arrangement.Wheelchair accessibility: Well managed

Honestly, it was okay. If you're looking for a traditional Chinese restaurant, you're not going to find it here. To better understand, the food here is good, not great. It's the overall presentation. A perfect example, there were no Chinese for listed for any of the menu items.This place caters to the American palate (I.e.: sweet and sour dishes). If you're use to the traditional banquet style dining, this isn't the place to go. It felt more like a fine dining experience. Meals are served individually (as shown in the photo with the eggplant) as opposed to family style (where it's one dish per plate that everyone shares) where there is a lazy Susan turntable in the middle of the table. Service was gracious here. Parking along the street and a lot in the back. You access the restaurant from the parking lot.Overall, this does have a more intimate atmosphere. Not much for traditional Chinoiserie decor. Not many Asians waiters or patrons (usually an odd sign when you don't see the demographics of the cultural group dining as their respective cuisine).

I and my husband took our sons, grandson, sister and brother-in-law to dinner, waiters were pleasant and helpful and the food just so delicious. A member in our group is a retired chef and said it was the best Chinese dinner he had had for a long time. Just clean Chinese cooking done the way it should be, We all agreed. Thank you for making the end of 2023 a delightful experience.

I have to file a complaint. The old, Asian, ill-mannered, long, white-haired lady’s attitude was rude, and gave me the wrong cheaper noodle soup. Yesterday afternoon, I ordered a” shrimp” noodle soup over the phone. When I came back home, I found out there were only vegetables.
