The tastefully understated atmosphere at Yangming is what you might expect from a Bryn Mawr restaurant, but not necessarily a Chinese one. Impeccable service from waiters in tuxedos adds to the country-club feel here, but it also enhances the seemingly incongruous mix of menu and ambience. Yangming offers a competent selection of Chinese treats that flirt with fusion but never stray too far from the middle of the road. Favorites include seafood with vegetables in a noodle basket and Mongolian lamb and shrimp with honey walnuts. Yangming draws its crowds -- and there are crowds -- from a wide variety of clientele, so there's definitely that something-for-everyone sensibility, as witnessed by selections such as crab cakes and chicken salad. Little ones like kid-friendly touches such as Chinese pizza and chocolate-dipped fortune cookies.

  • Delicate & Tasty

    Review rating : 5out of 5   sherrisart - 03/01/2007

    I've been eating here once a week with friends for about a year & have enjoyed everything I've tasted. Crab cakes to swoon over. Dumplings par excellance. A hearty head-clearing sweet & sour soup. Duck & pork loin dishes with unusual sauces that drew rounds of applause from the crowd. A super variety of wines w/ knowledgeable barkeeper. I'd recommend it to anyone.

  • Over Priced for Average

    I sampled the food at this infamous restaurant and for the high price tag received small portions of over priced food. Definitely not the worst but fair from the best. Would not go back unless you feel like wasting money.

    WOW, MSG was flying high. After eating a fairly good meal, I got a migraine that lasted for 3 days. The woman at the far area taking orders over the phone was as nasty as can be. Overheard her while waiting to be seated.

    I ate lunch there 2 weeks ago and the food was average. I was surprised given all the hype. What was particularly annoying, was that at 2PM on a weekday there were about 7-8 really loud middle age white men, presumably "regulars" at the bar, I mean screaming and yelling so loud you couldnt talk to others at your table. Throw the creepy drunks out and I'll come back.

    O My Gosh!!!!This palace of poopy was extraordinary in delivering poopy platters. I mean GOSH! This was such a poopy palace. I mean there wasnt one thing in there not made of poopy. Did i mention how bad the poopy platters were?
    My fellow Chinese people, I am absolutely positively appalled at your lack of goodness in cooking. When my food was delivered, it looked like a pile of poopy. I mean I eat my cute little fu-fu's poopy but not this poopy. Fu-fu and i are discusted with your poopy food.Your boss musn't pay you because your food is a lack of goodness on a poopy platter!!!

    The food is superb. The service is great and you do pay for all that.This is a place to go on a special night. Creative, innovative.It is one of the better Chinese restaurants in the Philly area.

    Review rating : 0out of 5   dmc7090 - 11/16/2003

    The food is good, but the service is poor. Seated 30 minutes after reservation, even though we arrived 30 minutes early to have a drink. Main course served after two other nearby tables with guests who were seated after us us, but were served before us by the same server. We'll never go back. What a disappointment, especially at the prices charged here!
