    Fantastic experience with the 9 course tasting menu on all fronts. Delicious. My wife and our daughter loved the dinner as well. Great dishes from start to finish. Not a single boring or basic dish. Clearly high quality ingredients. Sauces had complexity and depth. Thoughtful and original presentations. Worth noting the very professional and polished yet friendly, welcoming, and engaging team members who continuously solicited feedback on the dishes (in a good way) and added extra color commentary. Also, bonus points for really interesting beers such as the Jade Scorpion pilsner with green peppercorn. Really nice decor, too. We'd return in a heartbeat.

    Amazing experience. Low key elegance. Service was great. Food was incredibly delicious and interesting. The wine pairings were spot on. I would choose another meal at YingTao over another dinner at The Inn at Little Washington (which has 3 Michelin stars) . The evening was that wonderful.

    Great decor, thoughtful and tasty food. Service however can definitely improve for a Michelin star restaurant. The first three courses of the tasting menu were prompt but then we had to wait 35 mins and remind the waitress about the next course. The manager was nice about it and took the drinks off our bill, which I appreciate.

    I came to this restaurant with high expectations, but unfortunately, the food was rather superficial. Every dish used the same seasoning and was excessively salty. The Wagyu dish, made with excellent beef, was served raw, completely failing to showcase its rich marbling and texture. The service staff was warm and attentive, but the overall environment did not match the price. The table behind me was very loud, and the strong smell of disinfectant at the entrance was quite off-putting. The dessert was the highlight of the meal—refreshing and beautifully presented. I probably won’t be returning.
