About this restaurant

  • Neighborhood gem

Currently, our back parking lot is under construction due to the development of Stockman's Park. Parking is limited, but the parking lot is still accessible from L Street, or Railroad Avenue. We also have a few designated parking spaces near our rear entrance, but if all of those spaces are full, there is also a parking garage on Railroad Avenue. We apologize in advance for any inconvenience!

Winner of Diablo's Best of the East Bay Award, Uncle Yu's delivers Asian cuisine with a twist.

Innovative Asian cuisine enhanced with quality ingredients, paired with a Wine Spectator Award winning wine list, striking atmosphere and engaging service create the perfect dining experience.

Whether you desire a quick bite, a fantastic glass of wine, a meal with the family or a sommelier's wine paired dinner, Uncle Yu's delivers!

In addition to our dining room, we have a lively lounge and bar, a beautiful outdoor patio and a private room for special occasions and holiday parties.

    Food was exceptional… having to swat the knats like lung fu fighting was another thing. Owners should really figure out how to get rid of the knats

    We always have a good experience at Uncle Yu's. We had many of our favorite dishes including Garlic Noodles, Orange Chicken, BBQ sea bass. There were some updated to the wine list and tried a new Pinot Gris and Rioja that I enjoyed.

    The service from Darlena, our server and other staff was exceptional. The hostess was really sweet after we were 20 minutes late. The prawns with vegetables were delectable! The prawns were huge, plump, moist, but well cooked. The sea bass had an end bite that was a little fishy but then less so at the middle of the piece. After my sister asked Darlena, she brought out mocha ice cream with chocolate drizzle for my husband’s birthday, nice touch!

    When I go to a Chinese restaurant, I always look for Asian diners, in that way, I know that the food is going to be decent. On a Sunday evening, there were no Asians, only white people. When I got the food, I see why there were no Asians. The food was mediocre food adjusted for white people! Way overpriced and wasn’t a good value.
