Named after the Yangtze River, the longest waterway in Asia, represents an important gateway into China’s rich culture and history. Being one of the first neighbourhood Chinese restaurants in Montreal, it is renowned for its family dining experience, and has enjoyed a large and loyal clientele since its inception. This proud "institution", as its regulars likes to call it, is famous for its Egg Rolls and have been called the "best in town". In addition to those golden delicacies, the Wonton Soup, Yangtze Spare Ribs, Pineapple Chicken and Shrimps with Lobster Sauce are also favourites among Montrealers as well as former residents of the city who flock back when visiting. RESTAURANT TCHANG KIANG, was founded more than 35 years ago. This establishment was appreciated by many loyal customers and is recognized as one of the outstanding Chinese restaurants within the NDG area. Along with its many other Szechuan and Peking speciality dishes, this restaurant will surely satisfy any cravings.
Reviews for Tchang Kiang By Yangtze describe a place with very good food and generally excellent service, though portions are often called smaller than in the past. Dishes frequently praised include pineapple chicken, duck, chicken chow mein, garlic spareribs, egg rolls, hot and sour soup, chicken fried rice and the crispy pork with black mushrooms, with sauce and texture highlighted; some items are noted as overbattered, underfilled, or sometimes bland and overcooked. A few comments mention a decline from earlier visits, while many describe it as a reliable neighbourhood favourite for decades, clean surroundings and courteous staff. The restaurant is seen as a solid choice for celebrations and everyday meals alike, with attentive service and steady quality, even as portion size and consistency remain common themes in reviews.
J'y suis allé avec ma blonde le 30 août 2013, c'était délicieux.
Certains de mes plats était excellents, j'ai pris le numéro 5 pour deux personnes. Je vous conseille de changer le poulet à l'ananas pour des crevettes frites, qui ont l'air vraiment délicieuses.
Ce restaurant mérite absolument de l'essayer. La prochaine fois, je saurai quoi changer. Surtout si vous habiter dans le coin, vous avez de la chance.
Voici mon analyse :
Soupe won ton 9/10 (l'arôme est vraiment très bonne)
Egg roll 8/10 (Texture parfaite mais un peu gras, j'ai bien aimé)
Côtes à l'ail 9/10 (Délicieuses)
Légumes avec poulets en cube 10/10 (Perfection)
Poulet à l'ananas 6/10 (Trop de pâtes & trop stiff)
Riz frit 5/10 (Sec, pas très bon)
Chow mein au poulet 9/10 (Vraiment délicieux, belle consistance)
Ailes de poulet 7/10 (Pour les apprécier, badigeoner avec la cuillère, le liquide de l'assiette & manger avec du liquide)
Bon service, même si la propriétaire ne parle pas beaucoup le français. La serveuse était très courtoise.
Vraiment heureux de mon expérience.

We found the food extremely fresh. The chop suey Won-Ton soup was very tasty. My daughter loved the Chicken Soo Guy crispy & tasty.
The Egg Rolls were crispy & filled with lots of vegetables. served with an excellent plum sauce..We are going back to sample the lobster.. . We would strongly recommend the restaurant to our friends.... Donnie W.
C'est toujours délicieux & le service est impeccable. Nous adorons faire découvrir ce beau petit resto à nos amis.Merci & surtout ne lâcher pas.........
The name Yangtze has been an institution in Montreal for many years. I remember from a very young age going to eat there when they were located on Van Horne Avenue. Besides the prices not much has changed as far as Quality food & great service. The Egg rolls & won ton soup are still the best in the city. The only food change is the pineapple chicken. They use breaded chicken balls now instead of odd shaped pieces of chicken that's breaded. I think I prefer the old way.
The food was served hot & fresh & very prompt. I truly recommend Yangtze to anyone that loves traditional Chinese food.

Our server was courteous & friendly.They play very relaxing backgroud music at a low volume. The food was very good as usual.They make the best egg rolls & chicken chow mein.Prices are reasonable too. I would recomend it to anybody who likes chineese food.
I went to this restaurant as many people were saying how great the food & service is at this restaurant. Needless to say, the food was absolutely delicious & the service was unbelievable. For anyone who used to eat at the Yangtze on Van Horne, well guess what...they are now located on Sherbrooke St W. The chef gets a 5* rating, & the new owners are always asking if everything is to your satisfaction. I work with the public every day & am recommending to everyone that they try & eat there. Whoever I have sent there, I always get a big thank you for referring them to Tchang Kiang by Yangtze. Believe me, its menu is very tempting & appetitizing but I always order my food a la carte to try new dishes. I have never been disappointed there. Do yourself a favor, for great Chinese Food, you must go there.
Thank you,

We went to Yangtze on Sherbrooke & were very pleasantly surprised. With memories of the old Yangtze on Van Horne (with,as everyone knows, the best egg rolls in the city), we were unprepared for the lovely, comfortably elegant, youthful, jazzy vibe of the new & improved Yantze. Food was delicious. You can order the old west-end favourites like the egg rolls - still worth it - & pineapple chicken, or delightful szechuan specialities. Ambiance & service were great. A really good neighbourhood restaurant!
Excellent restaurant avec de très bons plats, & un service a l'écoute de nos souhaits.
Mon épouse & moi même y allons régulièrement & nous ne sommes jamais déçus. A bientôt :-)
Un restaurant ou nous allons très régulièrement avec mon mari, l'ambiance est très sympathique & la nourriture très bonne & raffinée! Je vous le conseille!
Je pense qu'ils avaient besoin d'une période d'adaptation. La nourriture est bonne , il faut juste demander peu de panure & les koutien sont un peu plus épaisses . Le service est courtois, mais c'est sûre que l'ambiance n'est pas la même en raison des propriétaires changés.
Il fait donner une seconde chance au resto ! Grosse amélioration depuis quelques temps après la réouverture ! :)
