YOUYU Noodle Bar

The location was very good. The food was good as well. The issue was the service. My wife's plate came 15 mins before mine. She was almost done while I finally got mine. It's noodles! I appreciate that they wanted the food to be hot. But they weren't super busy and the timing of the dishes should have been much better. As mentioned, I'd eat the food again, but I'd get takeout.

Stayed at the Hard Rock for Thanksgiving weekend and ordered takeout for the kids. We were told we could wait—and eat—at the bar across the way. After we plated the kids’ food, an employee suddenly said we couldn’t eat there, and the manager, Missy, came over raising her voice and repeating the same thing. She later admitted the staff was new and gave us wrong info, but still made us leave and eat in the food court. No offer of a table, even though many were open. By then the food was cold, and it wasn’t good to begin with—too salty and dry. Very unfriendly to families. Manager Missy should stay professional—no manager should raise their voice in front of kids, especially without knowing the situation. A simple exception and a few minutes of cleaning would have avoided all of this.

YouYu is a great Chinese restaurant located inside Hard Rock Atlantic City. The atmosphere is lively and it often gets busy, but the restaurant has plenty of tables and seating so it never feels too crowded. I would recommend making a reservation if you plan to come during dinner hours. We ordered General Tso’s Chicken, Honey Walnut Shrimp, and Kimchi Fried Rice. Every dish was delicious, flavorful, and came out hot and fresh. The chicken was crispy and well seasoned, the shrimp was perfectly cooked with just the right amount of sweetness, and the fried rice was tasty and filling. On top of the food, the staff were very friendly and attentive, making sure everything was perfect throughout the meal. Overall, it’s a fantastic place to enjoy Chinese food at the casino and I would definitely recommend trying it out.

Wanted to try this spot out while visiting Atlantic City. Great ambiance, friendly hosts. Their Korean Fried Chicken Wings were very tasty. Not greasy, good crispy batter, and the sauce was great. I had their Beef Curry Ramen. The flavors were good, noodles were done right, and the beef was tender. The only problem for me was a lot of membrane on the beef cuts in the soup. Otherwise, a decent Ramen spot in Atlantic City

Stopped in here for an early dinner while staying at the hard rock. Was seated at the bar like area around the open kitchen. I was extremely surprised by the quality of the food here and the service. The spring rolls were packed with shrimp And the wings were crispy and flavorful. Don’t even get me started on this pistachio cheesecake it was One of the best cheesecakes that I have eaten anywhere.

I LOVE THIS PLACE! It’s very delicious. Great serving sizes for families or a couple. The food is outstanding and the staff are friendly and helpful. If you’re at the Hardrock or staying there. Check them out!

This restaurant is one of the best places I’ve had Chinese food. Everything was fresh, and the service was exceptional. We ordered three different main dishes, and each one was delicious. It’s better to make a reservation if you’re going on a weekend because it gets busy. The service is truly top-notch! Highly recommended if you’re in Atlantic City.

Youyu was delicious. Glad we ignored the negative reviews posted here. We dined on a Thursday evening. Our reservation was promptly honored. We had a choice of dining at the noodle bar that is open to the casino area or the separate dining room. We chose the separate dining room. Very good vibe in there. Lovely decor. Our server, Yaya, was awesome. She guided us through our menu choices. We enjoyed spring rolls and dumplings for appetizers and had fried rice and Singapore noodles with extra curry as entrees. Everything was delicious. Honestly too much food for 2 people but we enjoyed ourselves. Disregard the naysayers and give it a try.
