  “I’ve been coming to Yan in Westhill for years, and it’s one of those places that never disappoints. The food is consistently excellent, and I’ve honestly never had a bad meal there. If you’re visiting for the first time, I’d definitely recommend the starter platter. There’s a great variety, it’s always freshly cooked, and it’s perfect for sharing. What really sets Yan apart, though, is the service. The staff are friendly, welcoming, and genuinely care that you have a good experience. Brian, the owner, is a big reason we’ve kept coming back over the years. He always takes the time to chat, remembers his customers, and makes you feel more like family than just another table. It’s rare to find a restaurant that gets everything right year after year, but Yan does exactly that. Great food, fantastic service, and a warm atmosphere every time. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it to anyone.”

  “Used to be good. Now smaller portions and higher price. Bit of a letdown. One of our dishes supposed to be crispy but was so dry it was barely edible.”

  “Went for dinner. It was very busy. The service was indifferent although the boy who took orders knew the dishes well. The vegetarian wontons just had stodgy mashed potatoes inside. The vegetable tempura had so much batter around!! which to me I think are not the way tempura should be made. They should have a very thin layer of batter!! The schezwan vegetables was ok but we’ve had better ones. The chicken with cashew was fine. I wish had some broccoli too in some of the vegetable and chicken dishes. Noodles were fine. The egg fried rice had very little egg in it! Overall a bit disappointed!”

  “Awful! Not at all authentic Thai food. It was a busy Saturday evening. Tom Kha had been split with chilli oil on top and lacked flavour with too much coconut milk it was a small portion with big slices of red onion. As for the Pad Thai noodles!! These were very poor, just noodles with soya sauce and a few bean sprouts rather than the flavorful dish with vegetables and tofu which should have been served. The Massaman curry had pineapple which is weird! The only saving grace is that Singha beer was available. The deep fried wontons overcooked. I have eaten here several times before and now I would definitely avoid.”

  “I really enjoyed it here, the restaurant is a lot bigger than it looks from the carpark and when we arrived it was really busy with a nice atmosphere. The waitress was friendly and professional and the food was amazing. I had a nice kick in my volcano chicken and my work mate loved his special curry. Nice clean toilets and plenty of parking 👍🏻”

  “Enjoyable Chinese restaurant serving up Thai food too. Quality of the food was excellent, good value too. Staff very pleasant and attentive. But the restaurant loses a star for lack of a tipping facility through a card payment. If you do it....the workers on the ground don't get it (apparently). Felt like the family were being 'huried along' a little too. Not a big deal though and never did we feel under undue pressure.”

  “A spontaneous visit left us wanting to return. A warm welcome and friendly staff. A clean contemporary setting with really great food. The food came out quickly and was exceptionally tasty. Also, and this matters, the washroom facilities were very clean! We highly recommend this restaurant.”
