Ying Chow Chinese Restaurant

I’ve never tasted tasteless food from a Chinese restaurant before
Sizzling lamb & pepper sauce 8 small pieces of thin sliced lamb and lots of onion
Which was just warm
Not to mention the special fried rice which wasn’t very special it was just steamed rice with sprinkle’s of egg & some sort of tiny pieces of dried meat mixed with it
Will not return here

The food was delicious, especially the shallot pancakes. Maggie was really friendly and gave us great recommendations, making our visit enjoyable.

The service staff are all excellent, kind and friendly
The tea is changed very quickly, and the pelvis will be changed frequently
The food is delicious. I haven’t eaten delicious Asian food in Australia for a long time I passed by by chance, but it’s amazing️

Love ordering uber eats from here - even better in person! No where else like it, and absolutely the best. Call and book ahead. Our favourites include salt & pepper tofu, e-shand prawns and coriander chicken. What will your favourite be?

We always eat here, especially late nights with friends. Typically very busy with great food, highly recommend the Tofu with Minced Pork Stir Fry, Tea Smoked Duck, Bok Choy with Garlic, and Steamed Oysters with Ginger & Shallots. Must try if you are in Chinatown Adelaide and craving for some delicious food. Best to book in advance rather than walk-in.

I think this could be one of if not the best Chinese in adelaide. Simple place, simple presentation.but always always perfect

Best vegan garlic chilli long green bean in town +SUPERB S&Ptofu & that CLASSIC BBC always satisfies.until late.wish twas till 1245am ala pre c19 but we WILL get there

Absolutely love this place. Food is amazing and at such a good price! Definitely my 'go to' Chinese restaurant. Try the stir fry chicken with salty coriander and the BBC! Highly recommend this place

The green beans and the flat fish were excellent probably the best ever! So nice managers and what a delicious meal

My favourite Chinese restaurants in Adelaide. I always get the Salted Fish Eggplant with a bowl of rice. It's not on the menu book, it's on the wall. However all other dishes have been delicious when I tried them but I stick to what I love. Fast and friendly service. Reasonable prices. Conveniently centrally located in the city. Can get busy at night so prepare to wait for a table for a group.

Cozy space, very polite service staff. Good food, very typical taste of Chinese dishes. I will come to eat here again when I have the opportunity.

Crispy beef is very tasty. Sticky pork taste like version of Humba in the Philippines. Deep fried prawn is nothing special.

Late night dinners @yingchowchineserestaurant pictured here are some of my favourites go-to dishes. It’s a casual and friendly place with tasty Chinese food and decent sized portions. The staff are super friendly and menu prices vary which is good because you could name this place as either a “cheap eats” or ya regular Chinese restaurant if that makes any sense. I always opt for this place when I’m feeling like wholesome Asian food or it’s late & haven’t had dinner yet!

Reasonable but average Chinese restaurant. The salt and pepper prawns dish was so so, and questionable value for money. Likewise with the Fried Chinese rice, which is somewhat generous with rice, but not much in the way of meats etc. May try other restaurans in this mainly chinese restaurans area before returning to this one. Can be busy at peak times.

This can be a personal review,

I have been to this restaurant as a customer many time for a long while, surely I haven't been very often but was consistant with my friends, family blah blah.

Food is great as always which I appreciate for, however the chubby lady with the glasses on, I find her very cocky. It seemed to be understandable few times in the beginning but its bothering me more and more as time goes.she always acts like I'm annoying her when I ask for something from her.

Today I went in there as a uber eats driver as I recently started to kill some of my spare time, take it as a little side job. As soon as I went in the restaurant, she straight up said your order is not ready.like I barely even looked at her and haven't even said anything. Because if what I've seen her few times, it really annoyed alot this time like I kinda felt offended. And then I was like sorry? And she goes, uber? And just went into kitchen and came back telling me it's ganna take whatever time it's going to take. I didn't even get the chance to say anything I felt really bad and frustrated.

The lady if you are reading this, I wanna tell you something. I have worked as a waiter, chef or even operated a food restaurant but from my perspective and experience, I feel like you are not really that ready to be a waitress.

You seem like a boss or a daughter of the owner but I can say at least you have one person that is getting quiet frustrated at your service. Hope you can realize that.

Always good, never disappoints. BBC is still one of my favorites. Ideal to pre book ahead as very busy. It's a quick and fast type of place. The interior is very simple and dated but because the meals are so good you certainly won't care.

Restaurant doesn't take walkins for 2 people. Told they were booked even though they had 5 empty tables and then when walked past again saw owner asking a guy "how many" and took the walk in booking for 6. Poor form!

It is beyond the tasty food. Very very friendly staff, always smiling and helping if you have a baby. My husband has been going there from almost 7 years ago. Thank YOU for your best service.

Arrived at the restaurant at 5pm and ordered spring rolls whilst waiting for my friend. I was the only person in there. Spring rolls took 15 mins. We ordered 3 dishes each. The two fried rice and my Eshan eggplant came out in a reasonable amount of time. We waited an hour for the other dishes so our mains had gone cold. We asked three waiters about our mains. One waiter told us it was because we didn't order when we first arrived that it took so long. That doesn't make sense since all of our dishes were ordered at the same time and we got half of them over an hour ago. We think they forgot about them, but gave us a lame excuse instead. It was an hour 15 mins before we got the rest of our meals, so then our rice and eggplant was taken away and reheated! By the time we finally got all of our meals, we needed to leave as we had tickets to a show. The salt and pepper eggplant was disappointing. I had always loved it here. It was way spicer than normal and not cooked very well. The Eshan eggplant was missing the lotus root. The funny thing is that the sign on each table states meal seatings are only 1 hour and 15 mins, yet we waited that long just to get our dishes and no apology, like it was our fault. The food and service has definitely gone down hill since last time I went there.

Best Chinese food in Adelaide. Went back with my kids after almost 10 years and the food was as good as I remembered. Qudos to the chef. The tea smoked duck is the star dish
