About Yips Chinese Restaurant
Yips Chinese Restaurant is a Chinese restaurant in Bridlington, at 12 S Marine Dr. The kitchen steams its dim sum to order, and the starters also include a lamb skewer. Among the mains is sizzling beef in black pepper sauce. Vegetarian dishes sit on the menu alongside English options, which gives mixed tables more to choose from. The restaurant opens daily, with evening service all year and a lunch session added from March to October. Prawn crackers come at the start of the meal, and the bar pours lager from bottles rather than on tap.

Customer Review Summary
Diners most often praise the food, with the sizzling beef in black pepper sauce called much better than anywhere else one family had eaten, and a fillet main so tender it hardly needed a knife. Close behind are the starters, where one table shared lamb skewer, chicken satay, spring rolls and dim sum, all well cooked, after warm prawn crackers. Reviewers also describe polite, friendly, efficient staff, a varied menu with vegetarian and "English" options, and prices they call competitive. One party found the restaurant full soon after opening and was lucky to get a table, and two reviewers suggest booking in advance. The criticism is limited. One lunchtime visitor found the welcome unfriendly and the mains bland, with aubergines slimy, tasteless and undercooked, and another reviewer would prefer decent lager on tap rather than bottles. Even so, one reviewer has ordered takeaway on every stay in Bridlington for nine years, and a family who tried every starter and main decided it would become a monthly meal.

“Lunch time visit - not the friendliest of welcomes, but efficient service nonetheless. The starters were delicious, but we both found the main courses a bit bland. Aubergines were slimy, tasteless and very undercooked.”

“Stop looking and book your table! Yips is absolutely brilliant. Genuinely authentic delicious food of a really high quality. Excellent service and you’ll smile when you get the bill. I cannot recommend Yips highly enough. The location is brilliant too.”

“We came here for our daughter’s birthday last night, we hadn’t booked so we’re very lucky to get a table as the restaurant was full within 10 minutes of opening! The service was great, polite, fast and efficient. The food was amazing, everyone at our table loved their food, and each meal was really tasty, and all of it eaten. The portions of food are decent, we had a range of 5 different meals and each one great. The sizzling beef in black pepper sauce was great, much better than anywhere else we’ve eaten at previously. We will definitely come back again!”

“Excellent across the board. Warm prawn crackers to start which is a good indicator. Each of the four of us had different starters (lamb skewer, chicken satay, spring rolls and dim sum) and all very well cooked. The server advised us the dim sum did take 20 minutes to steam, in case we were on a time limit for a show at the Spa. My fillet main was so soft and tender, hardly needed a knife. Again, all mains received the thumbs up. If I could change one thing - put decent lager in tap rather than bottles. But that's a minor thing. We have decided this will be a one a month or so meal now.”
