Yatson Restaurant

Very nice staff and great service. Comfy atmosphere like a home town cafe which was odd for a Chinese place but it worked. Prices were very reasonable. However the food was just ok. I think most of it was homemade like the egg rolls and won tons which was a plus but they were just average. I had some chow mein and it was mostly celery and a couple water chestnuts. The wife got chicken almond sub gum and the veggies were all celery. The egg fu yung was tasty but was just not awesome like I would expect being homemade.

Ordered for pickup. Opinion of all those who ate was boneless chicken was bland, rice was OK, and egg rolls were good until you bit into rock hard, pebble-like, unidentifiable crunchy insides. Also ordered Kung Poa Chicken, but was given Chow Gai Kow instead. The folks who ate this entre said it was not good. Lacked flavor. More veggies than meat. Won't return. Wasn't worth $40.

We just came from here and the food, service, cleanliness and atmosphere was great! We ordered and the food was very warm when we got it, just like I like my food, quick service and the restaurant was packed. Efficient and super friendly staff. Not one complaint! Best Chinese food around. Thank you all! Sandra Moore

This was some of the worst food I have eaten. Ingredients in the eggroll were unidentifiable. BBQ pork was home cooked crispy chunks of burnt pork. This place really needs to be inspected. They are open so few days that the food is not fresh. YatSon's has been a name in this area for many years. It is sad to have had this experience. I understand one man runs this place, there is no excuse for bad food. Service yes but not food. I am sorry but this will not be a repeat nor a referral.

Have eaten here many times since moving back. Lacks the atmosphere of the old Yat Son downtown, but the food never disappoints.

The worst I've ever had in my 73 years of life. Pork fried rice was a 3/4 full carton of dried up rice with a very few slices of pork. It was awful!!! Other meals we took out were less than standard, no flavor, absolutely tasteless. Total waste of money and time.

One of the oldest businesses in Helena. They are cash or check only, and are just open for dinner 3 days a week. But, what do you expect when one guy runs the place?! Jeff is awesome, and his many years in the kitchen is evident with his delicious food!

Just thinking about Yatson makes me hungry. Gotta keep this review short so I can get some Almond Chicken in my life before they close for the day. Five stars. All day. Every day.

I show up at 7:30 Saturday night and they tell me they are closed when it shows they are open till eight. I get home and read the reviews. I’m glad I did not get to eat there now and won’t go back.

I've been going here for awhile now and every time that I've ordered takeout, the staff have been excellent in getting me a menu quickly and out of there within twenty minutes. It's not always the case when they're busy, but they're absolutely friendly and they do a great job at serving their customers. The beer selection ain't bad either, so having a cold one while waiting for my takeout is real nice.
