The go to place for dim sum. Family owned with a younger kid running the restaurants which always means the food is amazing. The dim sum menu is voluminous with the traditional dishes. Servers don’t walk around with carts but will walk around with plates of food. Hard to find that nowadays with the traditional carts. The food here is always fresh and busy. Definitely recommend to everyone!

Best place for dim sum. And the salted egg yolk crusted baked buns are the best! So is the fried bean curd roll with shrimp and many more. Be sure to go early because the wait can be long.

I've only ever ordered to-go, which I've always been happy with. The quality of ingredients comes through in everything Yangtze makes. No MSG or excessive salt (soy sauce) needed! Some day, I'll dine-in. The dining room looks cozy.
Dim Sum was very good. All items were classically prepared and very well done. Pieces were a little on the small side. Hom Sui Kwok was particularly tasty. Get there early as a long line forms.

I love Dim Sum. And have been told by several Yelp Elites to try Yangtze for years. Finally gave it a try. I was left completely dumbfounded. It was busy and I was told it would be about 30 minutes. Unfortunately, it was 50 min to get a table. No carts here so you Oder on a checklist. Ordered shrimp, dumpling, shrimp shumai, shark fin dumpling, steamed spareribs, and sticky rice. Waited for 30 minutes more to receive first item... The shrimp dumpling looked fantastic. Unfortunately, that's where it ended. They were devoid of flavor. Shark Fin and Shrimp Shu Mai as well. The only way to impart any flavor was to add soy sauce. In 18+ years of enjoying Dim Sum, I have never used soy sauce! The sticky rice and Lotus leaf might have been a saving grace, except it was served lukewarm at best . The steamed spare ribs came out and looked like a gelatinous beige lump of something. I took zero enjoyment in writing this review. I was so looking forward to having fantastic dim sum, and unfortunately, that simply not the case here at Yangtze.

Ordered sesame chicken, tung ting chicken, fried rice and 2 egg rolls to go. Restaurant seemed clean and staff was pleasant but honestly the most lack luster Chinese I've ever had. We did order late in the evening so I'll give them that but honestly the food was bland and left much to be desired. Not only was it the most mid Chinese food but expensive for the quality delivered. Probably won't be back again.

I never leave reviews but this was the worst Chinese food I’ve ever had. Food was plain and watery with no seasoning or flavor. Ting tung shrimp had no spice as indicated and veggies and shrimp were mushy like they were just boiled. Fried rice is flavorless. Sesame chicken didn’t even taste like sesame. $45 for two dinners and just awful. We won’t be back

I’ve been there twice, for dim sum, in the last two months. Both times it’s been the same two adults and one child. The first time we ordered 11 plates. The second time, 14 plates. Same pot of tea. I don’t understand how our first bill was ~$87, and the second bill was ~$123. Even taking into account the different sizes and different prices for each size, surely our extra three plates weren’t that much more? There is no itemized bill at all so you just don’t know what exactly you were charged for.Also, gratuity is automatically included. If you’re in a hurry and don’t look carefully it’s easy to miss it, because there is a big blank space asking for an additional tip. I see no reason for the receipt to be formatted this way except to mislead people into double tipping. (There are no signs on the wall or indications on the menu that a good % gratuity is automatically included.) The first time I was there I felt rushed by the crowd waiting to pay, didn’t notice the gratuity and ended up double tipping by quite a bit.The food is delicious. The actual table service is very good, servers are friendly and attentive. But the non-transparency over pricing (how did a few extra plates cost that much more?) and unstated automatic gratuity with an additional big blank space for a tip don’t sit well with me.
Favorite dim sum
