Food was flavorless. Chicken & broccoli had almost no sauce just a light brown oil that coated your mouth. I love the brown sauce that flavors the chicken and rice but that was not this. Could not eat it. Sweet and sour chicken was soggy and pork fried rice was flavorless and lacked depth. Egg rolls were crispy- but didn't care for the flavors. Wanted to love it after reading the reviews. Staple in bag ripped a nice gash in my finger as well. read more

This was my first time ordering from this restaurant. It's take only. The food was really good. Fried rice was really good!

Busy night as it was Christmas Eve. Unfortunately food was cold by the time we got home. The worst were the steam fried dumplings .. Definitely not pork filled and the outside was so doughy it reminded me of a pirogi. I do appreciate a spicy wonton soup, and this filled that wish. Overall, I think it's time to try somewhere else next time. read more

This place is consistently excellent! I love their crispy tofu and my parents love their egg foo young. It's nice to have a "go to" Chinese place close by! The sweet lady who takes payment and gives the orders is lovely! Highly recommend! You will not be disappointed!! read more

This is our family's go to whenever we want Chinese takeout. We've tried multiple places in the area and nothing hits as good as Yang Zi Jiang. The portions sizes are great, the customer service is great. Small and clean area, I really wish they had a seating, but that doesn't stop us from taking out and eating in the car! I do wish they would put the sauce packets back for customers to help themselves, but I stopped being shy to ask for more duck sauce! read more

Excellent food in a timely manner. Service is fast but sometimes is very busy so be patient. It is only take out service and the nice lady taking orders is very sweet read more

I ordered chicken with mixed vegetables, white rice, and crab Rangoon. The quality is way better than other places in the area. Everything tasted fresh and healthier without a lot of sauce. I'll definitely Be back. read more

Outstanding. We picked up dinner last night, Mo Mo Ga Pan, Best we have had. We went for many years to China Eagle In Ellington but since they sold to new owners very disappointed. So haven't had Chinese in awhile. This now our place to go. read more

Much like the eager expectation of a new lover, this left me emotionally empty and void of any happiness or glee. The only good thing I can say was it only took a few minutes for it to be ready. Soulless, unenthusiastic and plain. Like a dry handy with no happy ending. read more

I was working in the area four years ago and stayed at the HIE next door. I got their takeout and it was super good. I had leftovers the next night. When I found out I was coming back to the area, I dreamed about their Chinese food! I thought about what I was going to get. You can't imagine my disappointment because they are closed on Tuesdays. I did get my meal on Wednesday and will have leftovers for lunch or dinner. Still delicious! Highly recommended! read more

I have been going here for years and the food is always very good.They don't cheap out on the ingredients.I have been sick this last week so I went down for soup.Hit the spot. read more

This place will put Sun Sun out of business. It is really top notch food, I am pleased every time I come here. It is consistent and always very fresh. The service is quick and easy to go in and out with your food. The inside? It's a normal take out joint, don't expect golden door knobs. The only thing holding this place back is the name, I can never remember it. They need something simpler , like Moon Moon. This has become my go to joint for the Chinese and I return regularly. read more

I ordered takeout today, from Yang Zi Jiang (Kelley Road in Vernon), and the Kung Pao Chicken is amazing! Lots of yummy sauce, chicken, carrots, a little celery, cut up pieces of baby corn, water chestnuts, tiny pieces of bell pepper (and I normally don't like bell pepper, but it didn't have much), and peanuts. I like it a little spicy. When I was ordering, the woman on the phone told me it's normally a little spicy, so I told her to make it extra spicy. I've found that their "spicy" dishes usually are not spicy at all. The "extra spicy" was perfect, and was really "medium spicy", not too much spice. When I picked up my order & got it home, it was still piping hot (the temperature). Also, I want to mention that they are taking the pandemic & customer's safety very seriously. When you walk in, there is an entire plexiglass wall, from the ceiling all the way flush with the counter, & it goes all the way across too. There's a baseball size opening at the bottom of the plexiglass for you to hand the cashier your cash or credit card. Then, when your order is ready, it's placed outside a little door to the left. So, if you like Kung Pao Chicken, theirs is much much better than any other Chinese restaurant in Vernon, Rockville, or South Windsor! read more

At last! MaPo Tofu worthy of the name! Decent fried dumplings, chicken and broccoli. Friendly service, so far my favorite take out Chinese in the area. Will be returning for the MaPo Tofu!! read more

It is a Chinese takeout only place. Food is very good and priced right. Lunch menu is the Best Buy. read more

First off, most of the food is great. Soups, chicken teriyaki sticks, hibachi chicken, lo mein, fried mean,, crab rangoon.... all very good to excellant... not so good are the egg rolls (small and greasy), and tonight's dinner for me, sesame beef... cut too thin for any tenderness, felt like chewing leather. I put about of the order on my plate and couldn't finish even that. Had to toss it. Stick with chicken or shrimp... I have at least 6 Chinese takeout closer, but they're still worth the extra drive. What they do well, they do VERY well... read more

Our regular (5 star) Chinese restaurant is closed on Sundays and we've heard good things about Yang Zi Jiang so we finally tried it! Very good! Better than all the other places in the area we've tried but we still prefer our "go to". 2nd place is honorable though and we will order from here again. We kept it simple; egg drop soup and 2 combination dinners shrimp w/ mushrooms and beef & broccoli. Shrimp were fairly large and cooked well with nice firm texture. Beef was tender but maybe pieces could have been a little bigger. Rice was good but maybe not made same day (?). Very good American Chinese food with quick service! read more

Been going here for 7 years their food is very good the service is always excellent it's very clean you can watch them cook highly recommend

Excellent food and service. Is take out only but the food is prepared in full view and I've recently had Hunan beef and mugugaipan (sp?) and a few other things always good. Chicken wings are a little different than other places I've seen and are crispy and juicy I definitely go back read more

Great Chinese food!! Ppl are always smiling and friendly. This is our now go to spot for good food.

This is our go-to Chinese food takeout spot! The food is ready in a flash, and is always tasty! Our staples are the combo meals, usually sesame chicken, a combo meal with crab Rangoon and spicy shrimp with pork fried rice, and combo sampler platters. You will have plenty of food leftover, believe me! I really like their crab rangoon and the egg rolls are delicious. They have done a great job during the pandemic of adjusting how they do business, and we appreciate that the food is still great quality and priced well. They are also in a plaza with plenty of free parking, and they are right off the highway, too. The food is definitely made to order, and you may need to let it cool off a bit when you get home because it is piping hot. Do yourself a favor and give them a try! read more

Great place to eat! The food portions are excellent for the price and the online order is easy since I can pick from items recently ordered.

Best takeout Chinese I've had in the Manchester/Vernon area so far. Adding to my list of go tos for sure. read more

Over all these folks are pretty solid and I find them a cut or 2 above most Chinese American restos. Their fried rice is very flavorful; the Hot and Sour soup stands out as one of the better ones you'll find in the area. Their meats are always tender, moist and flavorful and vegetables are cooked al dente just the way I prefer. Donsito gives them two thumbs up as I have never been disappointed here. read more

Passing through the area and found this place. Eggroll was very good. If I am in the area again I would come back. Highly recommended for Chinese takeout. read more

This is mostly a take out place. There are a couple of tables to sit down and have food. But I didn't see anybody doing it. Food was good and prices were reasonable. I like General Tso's chicken the most. Kung Pao chicken was also good. Combination meals is a very good value. Food came out steaming hot, which enhances the taste of the food. read more

This is my favorite Chinese takeout in the area! It's cheap, delicious and really quick with pick up orders. Typically I write ASAP on the order and get there about 15 minutes later and it's ready! My fiancé and I love their wonton soup, pan seared pork dumplings, roast pork lo Mein and their chicken fingers! The portions are pretty big so we usually have leftovers for the next day which end up being even better! They recently started selling the sugar donuts which I love but kind of weird how they poke a hole through it to make it look like an actual donut. Seems like a lot of effort when it's just a Pillsbury biscuit deep fried but it still is pretty good! Definitely recommend Yang if you're in the Vernon area! (They also give you free meatballs for every takeout order which I think is hilarious but hey it's free!) read more

Best Mein Fun I have ever tasted. Consistent every time. Food is always on time for pickup.

Reasonably priced and tasty basic American-Chinese combo specials. Crab Rangoon are pretty solid. Definitely on the sweeter side! read more

Hmmm. Arguably the worst Chinese food I've ever eaten. This is not a fancy place...and that's ok, not looking for fancy when it comes to Chinese. But the food was awful. Absolutely tasteless lo mein, below average rubbery steamed pork dumplings, General Tso Chicken that was mostly devoid of chicken -- more like just fried batter chunks with General Tao sauce. Broccoli with garlic sauce was overcooked. The teenager who took our order at the counter screwed it up and we got the wrong thing but the lady there was very nice about it and replaced the order. I feel bad for her and don't enjoy giving out one-star ratings, but I review with accuracy. read more

I am not impressed with this location. My family and I chose to try them due to our regular location is closed and we want this type of food. I don't like to give a bad rating but when 4 people can't finish their dinner, well I have to say something. We will not order from here again. read more

The best Chinese food I have ever had. I recommend everything on the menu. This is the first thing my Grandkids ask for when they come over.

The food is really good! I ordered the vegetable Lou Mein with Crab Rangoon. No complaints. They also have enough of sauce for the Crab Rangoon. This place is located in a nice area and has parking. read more

Best in the area! Always great no matter when we order. Fresh and always consistent. We love the variety.

Amazing food. Amazing customer service. Will for sure be back! They were so busy new years eve and my family had a huge order! They got everything right! We got a free 2 liter soda. The owners children helped ring us out. It was the cutest thing. I highly recommend. I also read they have free wifi. read more

Yang Zi Jiang is a casual Chinese takeout restaurant conveniently located off I-84 Exit 64 in a strip plaza next to Rita's. The place is order at the counter with open kitchen and two tables (4 seats each) for eating in. There are two flatscreen monitors above counter showing the various food offerings. The menu offerings include the standard Chinese dishes and items including Cantonese, Hunan, and Szechuan style fare. 30 Lunch Specials ($5.95-$6.95) offered until 3PM are served with choice of pork fried rice or white rice and choice of spring roll or pork teriyaki stick. 18 Combination Meals ($7.95-$8.50) served with pork fried rice & egg roll are also offered here. See the menu and pricing at http://www.yangzijiangvernon.com/ On my way through the Hartford area, I decided to stop off for a quick lunch in Vernon. I stopped for lunch takeout at Yang Zi Jiang very recently. I decided to order two lunch specials since I was pretty hungry. I ordered the L23 Shrimp Lo Mein ($6.50) and the L27 Mixed Vegetables with Chicken ($5.95), both served with pork fried rice and I got a spring roll and a pork teriyaki stick (1 of each). The food was cooked fresh to order quickly. The lo mein dish had soft noodles tossed with soft shrimp (cleaned), and a mix of vegetables (carrots, celery, sprouts, cabbage, scallions). The other dish had a mix of fresh vegetables (broccoli, mushrooms, carrots, cabbage, celery), baby corn, water chestnuts, soft pieces of boneless chicken in a brown sauce. The pork fried rice (golden) had a firm texture with a mix of peas, carrots, onions, and tender pork cubes. The spring roll was light and crispy filled with cabbage, carrot, and seasonings, slightly greasy. The pork teriyaki stick had a sweet flavor, which was tender and chewy. Overall, the food I had was very tasty and fresh. The service here was prompt and the food was ready to go in about 8 minutes. The location is very convenient off I-84 West. Take Exit 64 and make a right and another right into the strip plaza. When exiting to get back onto I-84 West, take a right onto Kelly Rd, then at the adjacent traffic signal, make two quick right turns back onto I-84 West. Easy off-easy on! read more

Great food and well prepared. My fav spot for Chinese food. The staff is pleasant and the plaza well kept.
