You wait to get seated, I don't think you would need a reservation but I'd call just in case for the future. Service was okay, not as attentive as it can be, but for me I think that the food was superior and that I don't care if I have bad service.ĭefinitely a mom and pop shop, a cross between a little fine dining and family style vibes. We discovered this place in the best way, authentic naturally and of course in search of good food because of hunger. Yang Chow is hands down a hidden gem in the heart of downtown & Chinatown Los Angeles!
