Be careful people, because this place uses MSG! After suffering from a severe reaction, I called the next morning and asked the person who answered the phone if they use MSG. She said yes, especially in the pork fried rice, the gravy for the egg foo yung, and anything that has brown sauce. After suffering from coughing, a headache, and a swollen tongue, I won't be back. I don't want to take the chance. These places should be required to say up front whether they do or do not use MSG, and at least give people choice to order without. Oh, and the food wasn't that great either, everything tasted the same. The one bright spot was the service, which was given thoroughly and with a very cheery attitude.

As a vegetarian, I appreciate restaurants that actually have something edible for our family. The Vegetarian Family Dinner is delicious, and where else can we order food to feed our family of four and still have enough left-overs to feed everyone lunch the next day, for a mere $25?
The service is great especially in the lounge. The food is delicious and the cocktails are strong. We go at least once a week and our regular server/bartender is friendly and efficient she never has us waiting. When we have our grand kids with us

We eat at this restaurant frequently.
Its menu offers a large variety of dishes all nicely prepared and presented.
Quantities are ample enough for the hungriest diner: service is prompt and courteous.
We highly recommend this restaurant to locals

I have been going here since I was a very young child (Im 21 now) and the food here has never ceased to amaze me. Its the best Chinese restaurant i have ever been to, and I have tried quite a few others but they just could never add up.
I have ate at Yan's several times in the past month...the food is consistently prepared, and always hot and fresh. I find the staff to be friendly and accomodating. I would refer them to anyone who enjoys chinese food.

1st-Time for us , We found everything was good ,the friendly service,food,an plenty to eat,if ordering the Family-Style Dinner.The only downside we found,was they don't-substitute,the soup for a salad. An also after eating my soup an her's; my wife was still waiting patiently for her salad to arrive.The Chow-mein definitely needs the noodles larger,an more veggies in it. So would I go back to the Silver Dragon to eat again ? Yes,I'd give it a [3 and a half] Rating out of 5 Star's. It's pretty good Chinese Food over-all !
