Yang Tse River Chinese - FELIXSTOW

Ordered a take away delivery from here. Got the pork with plum sauce, a fried rice and a chicken hokkien noodles. The food came in about 40 minutes and was nice and hot. It was nice and tasty and the servings were very large. It even came with a large bag of complementary prawn crackers. The prices are fantastic. Superb!

Another week, another fambam dinner. This week we thought we would go back to the Yang Tse River Restaurant to enjoy a few of our favourites which is unique to this particular restaurant.Located in a small group of shops along Payneham, it has very average signage, so slow down when approaching, otherwise you might miss it.The restaurant's interior is typically decorated with Chinese themed paintings of various genres, a terrible colour scheme and tacky Chinese ornaments throughout the space. Never one to be turned off by these places knowing we are here mainly for the food. We were warmly greeted by the only staff on the floor. We were offered drinks after giving us a few minutes to peruse the menu. We ordered jasmin tea, because they didn't have chrysanthemum tea. To our horror, in a Chinese restaurant, we never expected our tea to come from a teabag. First black mark for the night. We were super eager to get some meals delivered so quickly placed our order. These included chicken with tree mushrooms, crispy garlic spare pork ribs, fish hotpot and prawns coated in salty egg yolk. Other generic dishes included the jellyfish, hot and sour soup and garlic French beans (long beans to everyone else) with minced pork.Second black was awarded to the chicken and tree mushroom dish. From memory, the chicken meat used was thigh and not breast, explaining the dryness. Secondly, the lack of tree mushrooms was very much noticed and missed. Lastly the dish was too salty with hardly enough chillies. Moving on to the third black mark, that was given to the prawn dish. This dish has a heavy batter which was not what we remembered. They were heavy on the butter which destroyed the delicate balance of the saltiness of the egg versus the lightness of the prawns.Other than those dishes mentioned, everything else was good. The price increase has been noted, so is the lack of ambience. This restaurant has changed owners since our last visit and its success is reflected in the lack of diners present. A real shame, as this used to be one of our top five for Chinese cuisine in Radelaide. We might go back in a few month's time to see if any improvement has been made.

Shanghai comes to SA. Yang Tse specialises in the Shanghai region of Chinese cuisine. <br/ <br/ After talking one of the staff I found out that the chef is the owner. To keep the doors open they rely heavily on students in particular from the Shanghai regions travelling out from the city to get specialties specific to their region. There is a separate menu on the wall that changes regularly based on the Shanghai hometown dishes.<br/ <br/ Apparently the pick of the bunch is the Crispy Garlic Ribs: 'Every table that comes here orders crispy garlic pork spare ribs '. Also the 'chef special chilli with fillets chicken '.<br/ <br/ Personally I came here for quick shanghai dumpling fix which I can say ticked all the dumpling boxes comfortably.<br/ <br/ I will be back however to try the crispy garlic ribs and chilli chicken.

Rich man fried rice !!. Was way too full to try this interesting naming dish call rich man fried rice, so hence got to go back againit would not be a chore as the food was good. have driven this place for years and wondered what it was really like. but man it was buzzing with people. in fact on saturday night there was a long queue.

We ordered delivery on a very hot night. The food is really good. Generous servings and tasty. Like all takeaway you probably wouldn't order sweet and sour pork because it goes soggy very quickly. We ordered crispy beef (yes it can go soggy but this did not and I just love crispy beef dishes) and Szechaun chicken. Very tasty. Highly recommend! Service: Delivery
