Yang Sing Cathay

Looking for a good place to have lunch on a day trip to the Trafford Centre and came upon this family run restaurant in "Chinatown". Imaginative oriental décor both inside and out and a few tables out on the "street". Was welcomed by a friendly Chinese lady. Despite it being half-term holidays and very busy, she showed me to a nice inside table straight away and service was fairly quick. Waiters were very attentive. Wide choice of Cantonese dishes on the menu, some good vegetarian/vegan options and a children's menu too. Decided on the £14.99 special lunch deal: a selection of dim sum (dumplings were delicious!) followed by beef and mushrooms in oyster sauce with rice. Plate and food were piping hot and both courses were well cooked and presented. A glass of water with lemon came free with the meal. Good drinks menu also. An enjoyable lunch experience, glad I chose this place and would recommend!

Great experience every time me and my partner come to eat at this restaurant, staff are always so friendly. I am vegetarian and I got the sweet and sour with vegan chicken. Had to ask afterwards what they use for the vegan chicken because I was so impressed with the taste of it. You can tell they have put a lot of effort into the vegetarian options unlike other resturants. Thank you for a great time as always.

All round excellent! we came here is 2014 and was there yesterday. They found us two table next to each other almost immediately because we were a large group. Food was amazing and the staff were super friendly and brilliant. the beef in black beans sauce is highly recommended. I wanted special fried rice which was not on the menu but they made it for me anyway. I would definitely be coming back. Thank you

Excellent! Can’t fault it! Staff are very friendly and accommodating, they don’t have quarter duck on the menu but if you ask they’ll be happy to do it for you. Service is very fast and the food is of the highest quality. I very highly recommend the chicken satay and the beef in black bean sauce. Will definitely be coming back.

Sam's review: Tl;dr: Enjoyable food, quick service, halal food justifies the price. Arrival Visited with a party of 2 at 7PM. The main restaurant was fully booked out, but we were instead seated at the adjacent restaurant Wokooshii- a sister restaurant. I appreciated the decision, meaning we were sat down promptly. Service I had no issue with service, but likewise had nothing to praise about it, besides our chairs being pulled out for us, which was a nice gesture. The food arrived reasonably quickly. Food We ordered 3 starters. The squid was well-cooked and lightly seasoned. The second was Lai Wong Bau: aglutinous rice ball with a coconut custard centre. It was well made: soft, warm and gooey. Whilst it felt more like a dessert, it was very tasty. The coconut custard wasn't too strong a taste, which for my coconut disliking palate was appreciated. Our final starter was prawn meat in fu pei wrap. It reminded me of traditional Asian hot pot dumplings. We opted to not go for mains as we were going to sample other restaurants too. Final Thoughts The fact that Yang Sing Cathay is halal was a big selling point for us. Our only complaint would be price, but considering the cost of halal ingredients this was justified. I'd recommend Yang Sing Cathay to others.

30 of us attended on a Saturday evening. The food was superb and with the amount of other people in the restaurant , the staff did an amazing job of bringing out the meals at the same time. I would of given 5 stars had it not been for the fact there was only 1 person serving drinks and we had to re-order a round as soon as they arrived. At least 2 rounds of drinks never arrived. I would eat here again, maybe try midweek.

First time ever coming to this restaurant. The manners are amazing. So polite clean tissues and wipes after each course. We ordered Seaweed Salt and pepper wings Chicken skewers in satay sauce Crispy aromatic duck.. Absolutely amazing food all piping hot cooked to perfection. The chicken beef and duck are halal. I will definitely love to come again

Had a lovely meal with my partner. We had a starter each and some mains to share. All the food was cooked perfectly, full of flavour and they even boxed the leftovers for us to bring home. Was very busy when we arrived, however the service was quick and efficent. The staff were friendly and helpful. Would definitley visit again.
