Overview & Highlights

Nestled in the charming town of Alcaucin, Restaurante Yum Yum serves up authentic Chinese cuisine that has clearly won the hearts of locals and visitors alike. This cozy spot on C. Venta Baja is a true gem for anyone craving bold, comforting flavors delivered with heartfelt hospitality.

From the moment you step inside, Restaurante Yum Yum offers a warm and relaxed atmosphere where you can savor popular dishes like sizzling noodles with prawns and beef in black bean sauce, or a generous plato combinado that invites sharing and discovery across an array of traditional flavors. The menu is a celebration of classic Chinese fare, executed with care to deliver delicate balances of spice, texture, and freshness that linger delightfully on the palate.

The food here speaks for itself through glowing reviews—diners repeatedly mention the generous portions and vibrant taste profiles that rival some of the best Chinese restaurants in the UK and Costa Blanca. Whether enjoying a takeaway or a leisurely meal on-site, guests find comfort in familiar yet expertly crafted dishes that bring a slice of Asian culinary tradition to Malaga’s picturesque countryside.

While the restaurant’s decor may lean toward the modest and dated side, the genuine charm radiates from the team—particularly from Mo, whose cheerful demeanor and attentive service add a personal touch that makes every visit memorable. It’s no wonder that many return time and again, feeling welcomed like old friends. This sense of connection and authenticity elevates the dining experience beyond just the food.

That said, Restaurante Yum Yum is not without the occasional hiccup, as one reviewer’s unusual encounter with a cat in the kitchen does give pause about overall hygiene standards. However, the management’s transparency about such rare incidents, coupled with overwhelmingly positive feedback about the food quality, suggests this is an outlier rather than the norm. Prospective diners might consider this factor when making their choice, but many are happily convinced otherwise.

Ultimately, Restaurante Yum Yum shines through its flavorful dishes, approachable prices, and heartfelt service—a comforting haven for anyone seeking traditional Chinese cuisine in a quiet, unpretentious setting. If you’re in Alcaucin and eager for a taste adventure that combines familiar favorites with a genuine local vibe, Yum Yum is definitely worth a visit.

Sadly the day we went a cat came out of the kitchen with a mouse in it's mouth. She said it's only the second time they've ever had one. So choose for yourself how you feel about it.

The food was delicious and the staff were really pleasant and helpful. Good value for money

Had a takeaway, which was amazing. The flavours were just like my favourite restaurant in the UK and Costa blanca. Thank you for being here away from the coast

Second time we've eaten here but the first since lockdown. Shared a plato combinado and had sizzling noodles with prawns and beef in black bean sauce as mains. Absolutely delicious and great portions. The waitress was very pleasant and food arrived promptly but with a reasonable break between starter and mains. Quiet, relaxed atmosphere and good value for money. Highly recommended.

amazing place, dated decor but food & service from lovely Mo is the best. eaten here many times over the last few years & never had a bad meal. always my first choice for food when visiting my friend who lives locally.

Certainly the best in our area. Always happy to see Mo & her happy smile. She always makes time to chat in spite of her busy schedule. Fantastic delicious food.
