“Great Chinese Food!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 May 2013

We went here for dinner with another couple. It is family style so we all got something different. My favorites were the calamari and chicken dishes. The only thing that I did not like about this meal is that it did not come with rice. I've never eaten Asian food that didn't come with rice...odd.

“A New Favorite”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 May 2013

We went here for Mother's Day lunch, and it was great. Everything we ordered was wonderful. I especially enjoyed the orange beef, and the lamb in yellow curry. Great potstickers, too. Everything came to the table hot and fresh. It's nice inside but not so nice you feel bad bringing your kids (or maybe that's just because it was Mother's... More

“Asian food with a flair”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 May 2013

This is our favorite go-to place when we want Asian food. The sea bass and ribs are two of our favorites. It is an elegant, white tablecloth venue for nice occasions, and the tables outdoors provide a more casual venue when the weather is nice. The service has always been impeccable, and the owners are very personable and friendly.

“Great place in Livermore-don't miss it!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 April 2013

We got off a plane in Oakland, on way to Livermore and were a little peckish, so I had to figure where to go and eat. I always give thanks, where thanks is due, so thanks again to Trip Advisor, my husband and found yet another good place to eat. Downtown Livermore is a wonderfully architectural little town-I saw some... More

“Best Chinese cuisine”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 February 2013

Yes, it's a chain restaurant and the food is excellent, but don't miss out on the great atmosphere and friendly service. You can even sit outside and people watch if you're into that! Great location. Great for parties as well. Really nice. You won't be sorry. (-:

“Average”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 January 2013

We were there for New Year's Eve, and I can honestly say that it was not worth paying $110.00 to have the wine & food pairing dinner. Beautiful atmosphere, and very nice people. The only person who knew about the wines was the owner and this is Livermore where they have over 56 wineries. Our waiter was a very good... More

Ok, maybe I have been going out to eat way too much, but here is just a quick note about Uncle Yu's At The Vineyard. ---I went here for the first time Friday night, but be prepared...there is no vineyard to be found any where even remotely close to this place! :-) We sat at the bar which was nice,...
