Yougot Chinese Restaurant - Winnipeg

LOVE IT!. I love this place! I get the Pot sticeks almost every weekend and I LOVE them!!

Simple and authentic!!!. A plane and delicious food. a northwest chinese style food restaurant. a little under staff, could be better. if you looking for a place to try some traditional chinese food this is for sure a good place.

Good stuff. Tried two dishes from here and really enjoyed it. And really, a place called 'Yougot ' is just so entertaining, how can you not try it? It 's predominantly northern Chinese cooking which means it 'll be spicy! Tried this breaded spicy deep fried pork dish that was covered with dried chili pepper flakes. It 's akin to those dry ribs you see on all appetizer menus everywhere except these are not on the bone and super tasty. Yes, it 's fried but it wasn 't very greasy. Also, I didn 't find it too spicy but I have a high threshold. This dish is a great starter especially if you enjoy it with a nice cold beer!<br/ <br/ The second dish was small cut up chicken breast meat that was breaded with an egg batter and other flavourings. It came with this side of seasoning powder that tasted like five spice to me...I preferred the dish on its own but the five spice added another element. This was not a spicy dish.<br/ <br/ We only did take out so I can 't comment too much on service and such but the decor was clean and neatly decorated. I remember dining in this location years ago when it was a Croatian restaurant the decor was very outdated. I think Yougot took up a smaller portion of the original space so it 's a tiny place, there 's probably about 6 8 tables (fitting 4 each).<br/ <br/ It 's in a weird location that 's not easy to find. It 's wedged between two other businesses (a gallery and laundry place) in this small building on Pembina. Going southbound on Pembina, it 's past McGillivray and if you see a funeral home, then you 're in the right area. The restaurant is right before that funeral home.

I was delighted to try something new in the area. I googled vegan restaurants and this place showed up. So my wife and I went. Too our surprise nothing there was Vegan!!!

This restaurant gets some mixed reviews and I think that's largely due to the expectations Canadians have regarding Asian food restaurants. You won't necessarily find honey garlic anything here, and sweet and sour chicken balls aren't their specialty. However...if you want a taste of REAL Chinese food, this is one of the best places in Winnipeg! It is exactly like the stuff I had in China. My recommendations: The Fish Scented Eggplant (I know it may sound gross, but it's basically eggplant fries....FANTASTIC DISH!!!) and their Cumin lamb is also very good. We ordered something that we didn't actually see on the menu this last time my husband and I went...it was a fish dish in chili oil. OMG....absolutely incredible!!! And of course, if you like pot stickers (grilled dumplings) this is the place to go! They're made fresh in house and they often run out because they are so fantastic!If you want an authentic taste of China, I highly recommend YouGot!!!The owners is a very nice guy who takes a lot of pride in his restaurant.
