    a variety of food items
    Abby B.

    As their name suggests, Yee Siang's best dishes are their dumplings. We got a huge order for takeout and the dumplings were the stand-out, especially their pork and dill dumplings. The pepper beef was pretty good as well. Otherwise, we were sadly a bit underwhelmed. The dishes that were meant to be spicy were just not, like the general tso's chicken and their chili oil. Their crab rangoons were fine, but there are better in the area. On the bright side, the portion sizes are pretty great for the price. It's not my favorite Chinese spot in town, but with how good the dumplings are, it's likely that we'll come back.

    We knew that our daughters had liked an Asian place along Washtenaw in Ypsilanti but we couldn't remember the name. When we saw this place we thought we had figured it out. unfortunately, we guessed wrong. We walked in and it was at least 3 minutes before we saw any sign of a human being - very odd! The decor is fine, but looks like it has gone unchanged for several decades. We decided to try a variety of things on the menu that we like at similar establishments - crab wontons, fried rice, bao buns and dumplings. Overall, they were decent, but nothing special, and generally a little bland. Pork bao buns usually have BBQ pork, but these do not. In fact, the pork seemed like it was a little undercooked. Next time I think we'll try to find the other place.

    Yee Siang has gone downhill in the last six months. I had lunch at Yee Siang with a friend visiting from out of town in December 2021. We had the cumin lamb, dumplings, and two pork belly dishes. All were delicious and the portions were huge. Service was friendly and any leftovers were carefully packed for us so that nothing would spill. I told my mother about Yee Siang and how we should try it because it is a challenge to find authentic Chinese food in these parts. Fast forward to July 2022. I ordered takeout from Yee Siang - dumplings and the same pork belly dishes I ordered previously. Firstly, the woman taking orders was extremely rude. Not just to me but to the several other people waiting to order to pick up their orders. This was in stark contrast to the friendly waitress in December 2021. I handed a man who came in after me a menu and opened the door for a woman who was carrying a large order. I was essentially doing her job. No assistance from the woman behind the counter even though the restaurant was not particularly busy. I was disappointed upon opening the contents of my order. No plastic ware or napkins were included. The portions have decreased significantly. The pork belly dish was tough. I recommend getting the twice-cooked pork instead. At least the slices are smaller and more tender, but there wasn't as much meat in that dish as I remembered. Yee Siang is still a decent choice in the Ypsilanti / Ann Arbor area, but not as good as it was last year. It will be a long while until I return.

    Dumplings

    The interior of this place needs cleaned. We only stopped here because the dim sum place was closed. We thought that they served dumplings that were close to dim sum type ones. The dumplings were bland and mushy. They were boiled instead of steamed or pan fried. We ordered won ton soup and that was ok. The fried shrimp was good and crispy. The most flavorful dish was the mushrooms and bok choi. Sorry I don't have much to say about this place. It was just not an inspiring dining experience.

    Garlic beef shank and Pig ear in chili oil
    John H.

    Good food if you can get it. Last night I wanted to zest up my ramen so I ordered the beef shank and pig's ear. Both are traditional northern dishes served cold. Both were tasty and well seasoned. The later is not for the faint of heart as it is also smothered in chili oil. However, it is all about the texture from the cartilage. The beef was a little salty but perfect for my broth. The server told me the menu was online. The next day I wanted to try more of their dishes, but became frustrated with my experience. There is no sit-down service, so I tried to place an order online and over the phone. Both proved unsuccessful as the online app malfunctioned, and after trying to place an order over the phone for five minutes of discussion, I gave up. The woman misunderstood everything I said and when I asked to speak to someone else, she insisted her English was proficient.

    Steamed Pork Buns
    Chloe M.

    Understated, small restaurant. Authentic Chinese dumplings. Highly recommend the Beef and Dill dumplings. The smallest dumpling amount you can order is 10. It would be nice to have a smaller option. Drizzle the vinegar-soy sauce and chili oil on your dumplings. The chili oil is mild, not too spicy. One woman is typically your server. If it is busy, there can be slight delays but she hustles and is very nice. The interior is outdated but the food is great so if aesthetics don't bother you, definitely worth a try! I also recommend the scallion pancakes and Pork Buns. In the winter it tends to be cold in the restaurant so bring a sweater. Most people order ahead and pick up their order to-go. Parking is easy.

    double Twice Cooked Sweet and Sour Pork  Not authentic at all, don't eat this!
    Bingyi L.

    My boyfriend and I used to eat at the restaurant all the time. Earlier today, we just got back from FL and decided to have our dinner at Yee Siang. As I mentioned, I used to visit there all the time before the pandemic, so I pretty much ate everything on their menu and knew what the dishes looked like. I ordered 4 entrees from their authentic Chinese menu and expected to get the same quality food as my previous visits. But no, I didn't. The taste of my ordered food was so bad. The chicken and mushroom itself had no flavor, and not to mention the broth was burned and overcooked. The soup they made looked like a stew, too salty because of its lack of broth inside. Oh, didn't I mention we waited for over 30mins for that crappy food? We called their manager and asked to replace our dishes. They didn't feel sorry at all and said:" No, our taste and food quality remain consistent over these years. If you are looking for high-quality Chinese food, don't eat at our restaurant; find somewhere else. If you don't like the taste, that's your problem. Why didn't any other customers complain to us? You should pay your bill now and leave." This is how they treat their customers and the mistakes they make. We paid $83 for this meal and tipped the waitress an additional $10 because she had nothing to do with this. Horrible experience, definitely will not go back in the future.

    Go here. The pork and chives dumplings are so good! I highly recommend getting them pan-seared. They come with a lot, and very authentic. The service is slower at busier times because of the amount of staff... but don't let that discourage you! The main server is the sweetest, and at the end of the day, I really like this place.

    Sautee String Beans
    Danting G.

    Why this restaurant has such an overall score? How much does the owner pay for writing positive reviews and rating hugh scores? The food is sooo disgusting. I would rate 0 if there is. Beans and dumplings are overcooked. I may buy better dumplings from the supermarket, and boil myself. Pork is salted, which should not be used. It should be fresh meat!!! I ate a few bites and my gut felt so bad. The dishes taste and look like overnight food or waste. They are so greasy. What a waste of money! Why does this kind of place still survive during the pandemic?

    Chicken Triple Delight Dumpling
    Michelle J.

    With such high hopes but with a heavy heart, I am saddened to report that this restaurant is a NO for me. As a self-proclaimed Guru of the Fun Noodle, I was looking for decent Cantonese food in the Ann Arbor region; Yelp recommended Yee Siang Dumplings and after reviewing hundreds of positive reviews, I am beyond disappointed! My order consisted of: Beef Ho Fun and Chicken Triple Dumplings (Pan-Fried). I was super unimpressed with the cleanliness of the restaurant especially since they are takeout only right now; moreover, the service was less than pleasant. The Beef Ho Fun was completely absent of flavor; from the overcooked beef to the mushy noodles - so sad! The main pull for this restaurant was the Dumplings and they were mediocre at best, no dipping sauce was provided and had I not ordered Chili Oil, it would have been a totally Flavorless Meal. I'd advise others to promptly lower their expectations when visiting from amazingly authentic to basic.

    I was extremely impressed with the care of the employees and how delicious my food was…read more I'm in a season where I have to omit certain major allergens from my diet for safety reasons (allergens that are not easy to substitute or to eat out in general), and real seafood was able to go above and beyond to accommodate these allergies. We were able to call a few days prior so that they can make special side dishes that were Allergen friendly. We were celebrating our 13th anniversary and though I couldn't eat a lot of the special food When celebrating, everything still felt very special and the things that I could eat were absolutely phenomenal. I was very impressed. I would say this is a high 4, with one star down because even after talking to the manager and reminding the weight staff, the kitchen still brought me out two types of dairy with my appetizer, which led me to be a little paranoid the rest of the meal. After looking through the ingredient list which were provided promptly and graciously my trust was restored, but I always get a little bit nervous when it comes to allergies when I see that the staff in Kitchen and front staff are not communicating well. It was still a lovely meal, and I appreciate them going above and beyond to accommodate my allergens. I got the crabcake, surf and turf, a special request drink from the bar that was nonalcoholic, and a sorbet with fruit. I'm still dreaming about the crabcake and surf and turf. It was so good and cooked perfectly. I can't wait to try to re-create the crabcake at home. I was astounded at how delicious it was. I really enjoyed the fresh mango and strawberry in the salad that came out with a crabcake. Even though the crabcake sauce and the salad dressing both had dairy and were served with my appetizer, it was yummy without those sauces. It would've been nice if someone offered me an alternate sauce or had thought to tell me that they contain my allergy and I thought we were on the same page. I got a cherry limeade drink from the bar and it was very delicious. I don't normally get drinks but it was kind of fun to get something fruity and fun for a celebration. The bread was delicious and didn't contain the allergens so I was able to enjoy it without butter. I am not normally a sorbet girl and I probably wouldn't have normally ordered dessert here but since we were a celebrating, I wanted to try some thing sweet. I couldn't believe how good the sorbet was. It was a little rich, but it was so tasty. I think it would've been really excellent paired with a very light not overly sweet vanilla bean cake. It was so fruity and rich that it needed something to balance it out. I'm not complaining. It was excellent in a very nice end to the meal. Overall, 4.5 stars all of the stuff was lovely and it was nicely decorated for Christmas. Thank you so much for the lovely anniversary dinner!

We ordered hush puppies as an appetizer, and i had to hear from her that they were "good" but it's not how she would make them, blah blah blah....
