Yen Wor Village

My new favourite greasy spoon! The place is rough, it seems clean enough but let's not kid ourselves -- we aren't looking for the authentic chinese flavour here. This is one of my favourite types of Chinese-American restaurants for sure. Everything might be a tad oily but damn it's good. Do yourself a favor and order some fried rice :).

Customer Service was 10/10 tonight, the cashier came up to me with some positive energy and I appreciate that. Awesome place to watch karaoke & meet new people. There was women who sang well, and told me the song was for Me. Very nice voice. Karaoke after 9pm everyday but I recommend showing up at 10:00 or sooner

The place is fun to go to. They have a pool table, ping pong table, and karaoke. The food that I had onsite was great. HOWEVER, if you ever order delivery via Uber Eats, you will be let down. I ordered two combination plates and instead was given six eight ounce bowls of liquid. ------------------------- The problem is that they didn't give him the food to deliver. What was delivered was a bag with six 8 ounce bowls. Two the bowls had yellow liquid in it and the other four had a red liquid in it. So I had six small bowls of random liquid and a bag of fortune cookies. ------------------------- It was close to closing time and perhaps this was a simple mistake; however, I find it hard to believe that any such thing is possible. The employees even stated that 'chopsticks come with the combos', so there is no need to grab more. So that means that they 'knew' that there should be combination plates in the order, which would have meant there were bowls of chow main, rice, beef, etc. However, what we found was approximately 48 ounces of 'liquid' or sauces. It's hard to think that they would purposely do this. However, they literally put 48 ounces of oil and what looks like soup grease into six bowls and put it in a bag and told the driver that the bag had two combination plates in it. ------------------------- Literally, 60 seconds after I received my order, I contacted the driver and they said that that was the only bag given. A few seconds later I called the restaurant, but they were already 'closed'. So the restaurant closed moments after the Uber Eats driver left. ------------------------ I will not be ordering food for deliver, ever again from this place.

Tried to have dinner before a movie....got tea and weak wonton soup in a mere 45 minutes. Told waiter we waited far to long and had to get to movie. He offered to bag to go when it was ready. We said no and he charged us full price of $35.. Will not ever go there again and encourage others not to as well.

I am going to be honest. This place looks like a dive bar at 9 PM, then turns into the best hangout in West Seattle by 12:30. The karaoke hosts (usually) know what they're doing; staff is friendly; Jello Shots are cheap; Chinese food...well...it exists, but nobody comes there for Chinese. 😉 Basically, what makes this place amazing is it is the ONLY karaoke spot in West Seattle with a dance floor. And not only a dance floor, a strobing disco ball! The room is built for social dynamics, tables facing inwards, so it's easy to meet people. There is a pool table/room. Occasional fights, but never seen anything worse than the usual, downtown! Used to be a bouncer, but not lately, though everyone is friendly, and it's a mix between regulars and people who know niche hangout spots that secretly rule! Only downside is don't come on weekdays, aside from Friday. It's barren, unless you want to practice! I've had plenty of girls (and guys!) buy me drinks, and you should get about 3x songs per night if you arrive at 9 PM. Occasionally, there are open mics. Also, Wendy is secretly good at remembering faces, so if you're a regular, you might score a free beer! Also, the new singer from Queensryche (not Geoff) practiced there, so I bought a tank top like his! If you see me in the crowd, say hi! I'm the guy doing Bowie, Floyd, and Billy Idol. Plus a few suicides that suck less than ten drunken 21-year-olds howling N'Sync suicide numbers into the mic, then expecting men to dance to get them attention! Also, if one more bad singer attempts Radiohead's Creep, I will NEVER listen to said 90s band again! In fact, the sports bar next door will be my evacuating spot for the five minutes it takes you to ruin fine art. There are some things even alcohol can't fix. 🤦‍♂️
