Really nice

I went there with a work colleague. It was really nice (pork spring rolls were a bit ropey tbf). Lovely chicken in black beans sauce and crispy chilli beef.

Lovely atmosphere here. Staff were very accommodating to my large group (I asked to bring a table of 12 forward by 2hrs). Food is great quality and very tasty. Perhaps not as stellar as it's Sister resteraunt but great it's not itself all the same. Staff were friendlier than typical for Asian resteraunts. Great place for couples and work nights out. Fair pricepoint.

Lovely food and attentive service with a smile. Not quite sure how £21 per head banquet for 5 managed to morph into £215 bill though ....

Excellent food. Stands out from all the chineses I have tried and that's quite a few. Must try the sliced fillet steak dish! Great service can't wait to go back.

Been going here for years and the food is great, I haven't ever had a bad meal and would recommend anything off the menu. Over the past few years prices have gone up and it's not one of the cheapest places but as others have come and gone this place remains. I would especially recommend the sizzling Cantonese beef as the meat is always tender.

Recently came to this restaurant for a family meal and loved every single moment of it! The food was delicious! The atmosphere was incredible! The staff were very helpful and friendly! We had the Blooming Blossom banquet and we enjoyed every single meal that was included in it! 100% worth the money and will definitely be back when I can! Thank you Little Yang Sing!

Best vegetable chow mein I’ve ever had! Service was amazing too, we arrived super late and they stayed open for us and were really attentive. 10/10 recommend Portions were also big so I took home the leftovers Salt and pepper chips were a bit weird though, they were almost sugary, not bad just different.

Chrysanthemum buffet was the banquet we ordered. Brilliant table service including shredding of duck and filleting the fish. Staff were excellent and professional. All food was piping hot and tasted delicious. Not sure on the beef wrap as the middle course though. Good drinks selection. Big portions and option of fork or chopsticks. Only off-putting thing is the delivery drivers sitting in the doorway we thought it was closed at first. The restaurant was very busy all through our time there.

As a foodie with a fondness for China town in Manchester and a penchant for authentic Chinese cuisine, my experience at Little Yang Sing was a mix of highs and lows. Arriving as a solo diner on a business trip, I found myself sandwiched between two fellow solo diners. To my left, a disgruntled chap lamented about his hour-long wait without any food. However, the swift response of the manager, who promptly apologized and took action, impressed me. Opting for a selection of dim sum to start, followed by quarter crispy duck and spinach in sauce, my order arrived promptly, perhaps spurred on by the urgency created by the neighboring diner's complaint. The service, particularly from Lisa and Chris, was impeccable, with a dedicated water server ensuring my glass remained topped up throughout the meal. Reflecting on past visits, I reminisced about dining here during my university days in the late 90s when it was known as "Little Sister" or something akin. While the nostalgia was palpable, the similarity in prices to those in London left me slightly disappointed. Despite this, the overall experience at Little Yang Sing was positive, with its efficient service, delicious dishes, and a touch of nostalgia making it a place I would consider returning to, albeit with the caveat of managing expectations around pricing.

Went for a dinner on 13th May 2023 at 8:30pm. Not too sure it was newly decorated; the restaurant looked pretty clean and fresh. The platter was nice, it’s pretty large, very tasty with good selection of different food, definitely one of my favorite starters had in restaurants. The main courses were well made too. The staff members were very friendly and helpful. Only one thing, it was probably told by the manager, there was always some staff circling the tables over and over like sharks, probably saw them every minute or two. Once one plate emptied, it would be taken away by someone immediately. It might be the way they manage it, however I felt a little stressed and like they were trying to push everyone out as quickly as they can. Over all a very good experience. Will consider to return if go to Manchester again.

One of the Best Chinese restaurants in Manchester, highly recommended by a friend! Located in heart of the China Town in the basement of the building in the main quarter, have to go down to the stairs to enter the restaurant. Highly recommended to make a reservation too. Food and Services are excellent! Truly enjoyed shared deal from the menu, must make sure it is what you want before ordering, quite generous portions. My steamed Sea Bass was best ever tried! Highly recommended!

A great find in Chinatown! Down the stairs and led to a table with everyone else, it was quiet and only a handful of people. But seating us near each other helped build atmosphere. There was a long wait time to order but once the ball was rolling, things came pretty fast. Food was delicious, but not as good as other Chinese resteraunts in town. The duck in lemon and honey was delicious, but very very fatty (more so than usual for a duck dish). The food was on balace extremely delicious, hot, well seasoned and despite the complaint of fatty duck, delicious. A small annoyance, their Cola's are quite expensive for cola and come in very small thin glasses. It's quite a rip off of your money especially when the food is reasonable priced. Staff are very pleasant, but hard to flag down to place another order. There was a 20 minute wait from the mains being taken away and a desert menu given to us finally managing to get their attention to order said desert. Overall, if the staff were a bit more attentive, and they sorted out their pricing for soft drinks in comparison to the quantity of soft drink you get, it would easily be a 5* rating.

Wow! What a great find in Chinatown Manchester. Tucked downstairs from the street, this authentic Chinese restaurant serves up some seriously delicious food. We tried the crispy duck, sweet and sour chicken and the pork with black bean. All we’re super tasty. Definitely recommend if you’re in the area and don’t know where to go. We went with our kids, and it was a hit with them too. The staff were very friendly and helpful!!

The menu suggest every other Chinese restaurant but in here you will get the very best examples of the staple dishes you find in a British Chinese take away. The only thing that fell below their high standards was a tough pork rub in the starters. Service was also excellent. Just be careful, after dinner here your normal take away will just be a disappointment.

Popped in to Manchester Chinatown before catching a flight back to France. Wasn’t disappointed. Friendly welcome and excellent authentic Chinese food. Disappointed to discover later that a 10% service charge was added to the bill without my knowledge. Check your bill before paying!

Highly recommended! A fantastic place where both the food and dining atmosphere are perfect. I highly recommend coming here with friends for a meal (the crispy duck is a must-try!). I had an unforgettable experience here, and I'm grateful to the manager Luke, Cristin, and all the staff, including Piro and Michael, who were very friendly. Despite the boss having a temper, I appreciate this restaurant and everyone here. As for the food, I personally highly recommend the crispy duck, various dim sum dishes, Yangzhou fried rice, and deep-fried ice cream (if they still have it). I highly recommend coming here for a meal with family, friends, or your partner! As for me, I will definitely visit again.

Best Chinese I've ever had. So many amazing vegan options that are clearly shown by the green card they can provide. Everything was super delicious. The service was impeccable, quick and very attentive (replacing dropped chopstick and water without asking). I've never been this impressed by a restaurant.

Been coming back to this place for years and tonight was exceptionally good so had to give it 5*. 4 of us, two vegetarians and 2 carnivores, and we are like kings and queens. My daughter and I had the steamed bean curd rolled vegetables, mick duck pancakes, pal Choi, steamed rice, Szechuan chilli aubergine and vegetables in curry sauce.

Me and my friend found this place in search of a good and authentic Chinese food, to satisfy our craving for it. We were gratified as not only the food was temptingly tasty, but the ambience was also soothing. The staff was friendly and prompt. Noodles and tofu were good, but I liked Dim-sum the most, properly cooked full of flavors. It's a great place to enjoy appetizing Chinese cuisine with friends and family.

Loved the food. This photo doesn't do justice to be honest. Also couldn't get a photo of the dimsums as we devoured it soon as it arrived. Highly recommend you visit the place for some dimsums and chowmein among other delicacies.

Had a birthday lunch here and the food was great. Im gluten intolerant and never thought I'd be able to eat Chinese food again, they have an extensive range that caters for my needs and it doesn't feel like a compromise. Been along time since I've enjoyed a really flavoursome meal. Our waitress was very funny

Visiting Manchester for three days and this restaurant was recommended to us before we arrived. It didn't disappoint, excellent food, attentive service. Wow what a find, can't see we'll find a better place to eat over the next two days. Please congratulate your staff on the service they provided.
