Great Chinese takeout. There is a small dining area but beware this restaurant is popular and typically busy. The dining room will be chaotic. All of your favorites are prepared here. The portions are generous and always fresh. As restaurant prices continue to escalate Mr You's continues to be a great place to eat on a budget.

Wonton Soup
I ordered a delivery from here, and it went through DoorDash. Shout out to Owusu for delivering my food early and having to deal with the confusing mess of this place. I ordered coconut shrimp, orange tofu, cream cheese wontons, sesame balls, milk tea boba, Thai tea boba, and veggie rolls. The wontons and the veggie rolls taste like all of the other ones.
The orange tofu is okay, but tofu is hard to manipulate and season. The orange sauce doesn't have a citrus taste to it, and there's a lot of it. The sauce is a little tangy and not too sweet. When you push on the tofu and then release it, it'll soak up the juice. Not too bad., but I wouldn't get it again.
Coconut shrimp is my favorite so I'm giving it ten stars! I've always loved coconut shrimp and when the place that used to have this dish closed, I was upset. They also don't make it crunchy which I love! The coconut sauce causes my mouth to water. I love it!
Now the teas are kinda new to me. I love the Thai tea! It tastes amazing! Not a boba fan because I don't like things gushing in my mouth, but I like this tea. The milk tea is just like a typical tea with milk. There nothing new about it. The boba in it doesn't heighten the flavor at all. The milk tea is very refreshing if you're looking for a simple drink.
The most confusing dish were the sesame seed balls. It's something I've never ever had. It's very chewy. Chew it well or you might choke. It's greasy, so have some wet wipes available. This dish has a nutty flavor that's sweet and inviting. The bean paste is sweet. I didn't even know that beans could be sweet. My first bite of the sesame seed balls were confusing since it was new to me, but man is it good. It's the sweet nutty taste that has me hooked.
Overall, I'd definitely order from this place again since it did satisfy my cravings for something different and new. Long story short, I'm from the South and where I'm from, we don't get nice high quality food like this. This food is good.
