Yellow River Chinese Restaurant

I’ve never eaten at the restaurant, I always do takeout. Best tasting Chinese takeout in Kingston. Never disappoints. Don’t listen to the negative reviews.

We've been searching town for YEARS for a replacement after losing our long time fav restaurant, East Side Village. Saw a friend post Sunday how good Yellow River was and decided to try for ourselves, that night. Safe to say YR is our new Chinese take out go-to, can't believe it took us so long to try it!
Food was delicious, portions were generous, discount given at pickup for cash payment and conveniently used the RBC parking lot across the street (after hours).
Inside of the restaurant was pristinely clean, albeit completely empty, and after noticing two buffet tables pushed to the side it made me wonder if I could book the whole dining room for a private event. Who knows, but hopefully with more support YR will get some seats filled in the coming months

Prices are fair food was not to generous with vegetables or meat probably due to food cost and price of groceries in today market they ask for payment before serving and probably for a reason although I do promote local business like this has been striving and needs more business to survive I don't want to see the yellow river close so please dine and wine and have a great time in Kingstown!

Didn’t dine in but would be a nice spot bf Friday we would have had the place to our selves very kind and patient staff I forgot my card and had to return to pay for my pick up thank you again was exactly what we were craving!

Dated decor but clean and well maintained.
Service was friendly, pay first even when dining in.
Good food, flat noodle beef was very good, done HK style.

Have ordered hefun 乾炒牛河and it wad hot and delicious coming out. We ordered black bean beef with mixed vegetables and it was delicious too, not too salty. We are so glad to have good Chinese in this area.

They wanted us to leave early as possible, the waiter wanted us to takeout instead I and my friends wanted to dine in, but they asked me 6 times to take out.

The worst RESTURAUNT I have ever eaten at! This place had the lights off when I arrived because no customers were there. The food is expensive and it was TERRIBLE. It’s all microwaved and horrible. Beef was chewy and horrendous, and the chicken had that tough signature texture that it was microwaved. They asked us to pay before we eat and now I understand why! If I was served before I payed and had a bite of this food, I would’ve walked out I’ve never had anything horrible. I love cheap Chinese food, this wasn’t it and I would never recommend it.

We were the only people there. Lots of food going out. The man serving us was very friendly and helpful. Food was amazing. All in all a very nice experience!

It's open late on a Sunday. Steady stream of people getting takeout. It's clean. Fast service. Friendly. Excellent food! Had the chicken low mien.

Old school americanized chinese food spot. Lemon chicken combo was great and you can’t beat the price.

The worst restaurant. Expensive awful taste. No service nothing can make any stars for this restaurant

One of the best Chinese restaurants I've ever eaten at. The food was fresh and flavourful. The service was friendly. We had the Black Pepper Beef, which was ao tasty, and the Szechuan Chicken, which must have been cooled to order, because the breading was crispy enough that it had to have just come out if the fryer. And the Hot and Sour was rich and chunky and full of flavour. Seriously great.

Family owned, great service, extensive menu. This is my favorite Chinese restaurant in Kingston. Well worth the visit. Enjoy!

Great family run business food is amazing, best Chinese in kingston hands down! Delivery driver is very polite and quick

The place was empty & the rice tasted burnt. The rest wasn't good. Makes one wonder how they keep the doors open. It was well decked out and clean. Too bad.

Looking for a place for supper. Stopped in to check it out.owners are really nice people and are trying to make their business succeed. Threw me off a little when we were told we had to prepay for our meal. But whatever, it seems to be the way the world is going. Food was good, average Chinese food. Prices were also average not crazy expensive. All in all i hope these folks succeed in their adventure of running this establishment.

Horrible! Chicken fried rice came with zero chicken and chicken chow menu with zero chicken in it. $15 each and no chicken! It’s no mistake, it’s a business practise. Never ordering from here again.

Relaxed clean atmosphere.
Great food and lots of it. Be prepared for taking some home.
Professional and courteous service. Quite friendly.
Surprised to hear they were new owners and just starting out, everything was amazing!
Wish we lived closer so we could eat here more often

We should have taken pictures.

I have had this chow mein dish from many many restaurants all over Canada and this one is my far the worst for the portion and price. $18 before tax. I have never recieved this chow mein from anywhere in such a small portion for that unreasonable price.
It's always been the big square container never this small rectangular one. I order through uber eats and this was all I got. For $24 excluding tip and delivery.

Food is amazing. Delivery is always hot and they prep their food and containers in a way so fried food is always nice and crispy.

Prior to Covid this used to be my favourite for Cantonese Chow Mien and Chicken Wings. The Chow Mien yesterday had fewer shrimp, chicken, and vegetables in a smaller container and some of the noodles were burnt black, the wings were big but covered with a heavy breading and had a greasy smell. It was a $37.00 disappointment,

Good food, and being we ordered on New Year's Eve, service was very good! Will definitely order again. But call the restaurant directly, don't use an app, which we learned that night!
