We were exhibiting at the next stand to Sugarvine at the NRB show and asked for a recommendation for a Chinese in the city centre. We were delighted with the meal. will go again when in Manchester!

Yang Sing is a great concept- it's upmarket style allows you to take corporate clients here, which is a rarity in most Chinese restaurants. However, there are many many restaurants in Manchester that match or surpass the food there including the little downstairs place next door that do the same great steak rolls for approximately half the price. Great for a posh night out but honestly quite disappointing for most real foodies. My advice to you if you eat Chinese regularly in Manchester is to be adventurous and try somewhere else!

Anonymous is wrong. Chinese food is supposed to come at different times and crispy duck is not an authentic Chinese dish so is not a must for a Chinese restaurant. However, Anonymous is right- Yang Sing is not the best Chinese restaurant in Manchester, in fact I think it has become the worst restaurant in Manchester. Let me explain. I have been going to the Yang Sing since it was located where the little Yang Sing now is. Then it was a vibrant place serving inventive Cantonese cuisine frequented by Chinese people. Over time the chefs have left, the prices have increased and the servings have become smaller. The atmosphere is now corporate, no chinese people eat there and the customer service has vanished. I have now had three meals in a row where the food ranged from poor to good, but where the service has been disgraceful. Last week whilst attempting to impress an American guest we were served by a man who told us that they did not serve crispy duck because it was not chinese. Instead of pointing out that they do serve Beiping duck (the chinese version),but that it has to be ordered a day in advance, he belittled us for ordering 'english' crispy duck. He didn't explain why they continue to serve prawn toast, egg fried rice and spare ribs which are not exactly common in the restaurants of canton province. He then became visibly annoyed when people didnt hear him ask if they wanted boiled or fried rice. Yang Sing- what has happened to you? Long Live Red Chilli- a proper chinese restaurant where meals are enjoyable, and the staff don't sneer.

I was recommended Yang Sing's as being one of the best Chinese restaurants in Manchester but I disagree! Albeit the food was good, starters and main meals all came at different times and on one occasion had to ask were the rest of the meals were as the others were getting cold! Also, crispy duck and pancakes weren't on the menu which I feel is a must for a Chinese restaurant. Seen as we were there for a special occasion, I felt slightly let down.

unbelievable, definitely the best chinese restaurant in europe.

Yang Sing

I had heard and read a lot about the excellent reputation at Yang Sing, especially for vegetarians, so my partner and I were looking forward to an superb Chinese meal. I have to say we were a bit disappointed. Can I first say that you can't fault the service. Our main waitress was Iris and she was extremely attentive and genuinely helpful and keen to advise us on the menu and ordering. However, our first criticism is that Yang Sing seems to solely target the large parties for its food. For couples it is not satisfactory. We wanted to order a number of dishes for two, but because quantities are only available in dishes aimed at parties of four or six, we were advised to order only two. And with huge bowls of noodles and beancurd in front of us, let me tell you, we were soon sick of both. We would have liked smaller servings, priced more reasonably, so that we could have the same options to try different items on the menu as a larger party. And in terms of quality, to be honest, it's supposed to authentic, etc. and it was pretty average. I've had better Chinese food. I would recommend this venue for a party night out (hen, stag, going out drinking) where the food itself is not the main object, but certainly not a quality dinner for two.

Yang Sing

On the basis of my first visit, the Yang Sing deserves its reputation as one of Britain's premier Chinese restaurants. It advertises that it will design a banquet for you around your likes and dislikes at a fixed price. We told the waitress what these were and that we dont want to spend more than £25 per head. We left it to her to pick the food and keep it as a surprise. It was great. Nothing could have been described as "the usual you get in a chinese", but, equally, there was nothing odd. Service was first class. Our visit was for a saturday nightnd, even for 7.30, the reservation had been essential. As mentioned above, food for four cost £100. Drinks and tip added another £50. Not a cheap night out but worth every penny.
