Yang has been a fond favorite for our family for the last 8 years. We love celebrating special occasions here because of its quaint Chinese setting and seperate dining areas/rooms which makes one feel semi secluded from other diners. The decor could do with a small update and refresh, but the food is amazing! We always go for the tasty well-priced set menus on offer so that we can all share and get a taste of everything. Robyn, the owner, also has a sushi bar which adds to the experience. Service can be slow when busy but that gives you ample time to relax and chat with invited friends and family. Have some saki, and try it with a slice of lemon! Take away is also avaliable, as well as delivery via one of the delivery food apps.

Was pleasantly surprised by this restaurant. With a string of bad experiences with chinese restaurants this one is my favorite by far. Food was excellent, delivered timeously. I would definitely be coming back.

Definitely not a choice for a date night. Very disappointing indeed. Decor leaves much to be desired - dark, dirty and in need of a total make over. Limited menu with the worst fried rice and noodles I have ever tasted - dry, cold and very pale. Rice served like maize meal. Mains failed great expectations - served cold and lacking flavour. Distinctly lacking in sophistication. Not covid compliant right now.

The sweet and sour pork was average. The noodles didn’t taste very good and the pork was deep fried pork not Chinese style deep fried pork. The sweet and sour sauce was average not very tasty. But service was great.

Last night my boyfriend and I ordered the Plan A as a take away meal, and we had so much food that we were both able to Take some for lunch today! The chicken and cashew chop suey is incredibly tasty and the staff were friendly, so we will definitely be going back sometime soon!

Meal was not up to scratch. Everyone else at the table enjoyed theirs. When I complained they gave a discount. Shot to them for acknowledging my disappointment

Bought Take Aways. The owner was in such a hurry to get rid of me he forgot part of my order. Not only that he also never gave us our sweet and sour sauce. When I phoned No apology, Just a short if you want it come and fetch it. Do you honestly believe I will go there again?

My partner and I went into your restaurant on Monday (31/10) and orders 2 main meals. We were the only people in the entire restaurant as it was approximately 3:30pm. I was appalled with the cashier/waiter. She completely messed up our order:I did not get rice or noodles with my Pork mealMy partner ordered rice and got noodles insteadShe came and left the food on our table and just said she was sorry and walked awayShe never once came and found out if we were fineShe never cleaned up once we were done and just left us sitting at the tableShe has 2 other friends that were seated at the cash desk area and they were yapping, yapping oblivious of customers careShe did not offer a reduction in our meal despite mine not coming with any rice or noodles…Are you guys running a circus show or a food outlet??I look forward to your response.Regards,Candice

Food selection is limited..but the meals were excellently cooked and very palatable...Staff polite and friendly...The ONLY drawback is...the tiled floor on the walkway and stairs are hazardous when wet.

Review №37

We got take away from them last week and it was awful. Sweet and sour Chicken came with over boiled plain unsalted white rice and the chicken contents in thick batter were suspiciously soft, as if it was minced. The Chicken Chow Mien noodles were over cooked and seemed to only have peppers and nothing else added besides the chicken strips and was pretty tasteless.Sad.

Poor service, with incorrect order and I ate my meal with a spoon because that is all I was given to eat with. Won’t go again

Review №49

Unimpressed, they close at 10 pm according to the information on the web but close their kitchen to orders at 9:00 pm. So you pitch up there to grab a bite to eat and discover they are open but closed to orders but a rather unhelpful and disinterested cashier.

Very poor service and sushi are average (still questionning the condenced milk hand roll even if didnt dare to taste it). Had to wait more than 1 hour for 2 salmon platters (with only 1 other table of 4 persons). Will never go back and would certainly recommand the place to any one
