Excellent Chinese food in Aarhus. We are visiting for a few days and I had a taste for Chinese food. The food was excellent and the service was top-notch. It is s five minute walk from the train station. You can book s table online. We csme back again the next night with a friend. Couldn't recommend it higher.

Vi ventede længe på at afgive bestilling. Havde bestilt bord til fødselsdag. Måtte bede om flag. De 2 øl var IKKE Tuborg Classic som var bestilt - men hvedeøl, prøvede at signalerer, men fik blot en underlig forklaring. Kødet i retterne var sejt, eller meget gennem stegt. Var meget skuffet denne gang. Har ellers været hos jer før, og været meget begejstret.

A little long waiting time but food was excellent. The most authentic Chinese food in Denmark. The spicy dishes where spicy just as they should be, and not adjusted for weak tongues. First time we visited them but definitely not the last time.

I really like this restaurant and have been there several times before. There's a great atmosphere and the food is simply delicious. It's always nice to try some more authentic Chinese food and get an insight in traditional Chinese food culture and habit. The staff is always nice and there is a great service! Overall very satisfied once again!

Excellent original food. Great, speedy service - prabably also due to our early arrival (17:45). The toilet facilities need some care (broken toilet push panel, part of ceiling was torn down) and could be cleaner. The food and the great, friendly service were both reasons enough for a revisit soon.

Maden var velkrydret, havde lige præcist det bid, vi nyder ved kinesisk mad. Og der var rigeligt. Kun fordi tjeneren frarådede vores valg om to forretter, kunne vi spise op. Vi kommer igen.

This is the most authentic Chinese/Cantonese restaurant in Aarhus, maybe even in the whole Denmark! The food was really delicious, but maybe somewhat a bit short on the pork and seafood in the main course.. Though we were disappointed that the Hong Kong style marinaret pork was sold out . Otherwise it was a great experience. I would most definitely recommend Yi East to all my friends and family.

Great and affordable place to go with friends. They are more than able to deal with a lager party! We didn’t wait long for any of the food to arrive and the quality of the food was amazing! The prices are student friendly compared to the amount of food you get and the amazing quality! Would definitely recommend it and would without a doubt come there again!

It was a very very good experience! So good food and the best service. The only thing was that we ordered 10 pieces of dumplings but only got 5 and the receipt said 10 pieces as well - but no problem we were so full anyways of all the other good food!! We will definitely be back :)

The food was amazing and the waitresses were really nice and accommodating! The only thing that bothered me, was that the sorrounding, empty tables weren´t being cleared until we were about to leave. The tables just stood there with the dirty dishes for almost our entire stay - leaving an impression of the sorrounding environment as "dirty"/"unsanatized" and cluttered.

Its a bit expensive, and also a bit confusing eith pictures of the food outside which are not on the menu inside. On the internet openinghours are different from what is written on the menues We ordered nudles without vegtables, but it was with vegtables afterall. BUT, BUT, BUT the food is amazing, the service is kind, and it is my favorite restaurant. I would eat there every week, if it wasnt so expensive.

The food was good and the service too. Every dish was delicious; nicely warm and the taste of freshnesh. The only thing we could point out as need of improvement, is the cleaning of the folders with the menu and the bottles with chili and soyasauce. Both was sticky. But overall a nice experience.

The service is fine and the waitress also. I rated the service with a 5 because it is too slow, we had to wait for too long between different dishes, more than 1 hour since we ordered until we have all the food. It has happened to me several times, even thought I’m coming back because the food is really good

The food was very good but unfortunately we were a little forgotten by the staff. We waited about 15 minutes before we were able to ask a waiter for a menu card for the desserts and then an additional 15 minutes before they took our order. After that it took about another 15 minutes to make 3 black coffees. Other than that the service was good.

Det var lækkert mad, vi var et selskab på 5 og ville have nogen små retter vi kunne dele så alle kunne smage, der kunne vi godt have brugt lidt info på prisen for at få en enkelt mere (altså feks 1 bao, og 1 soup dumpling mere) da vi kunne se da vi fik regningen at det bedre kunne have betalt sig at have taget en hel portion mere end bare at have fået 1 mere, der kom lige 200 kr oven i regningen næsten på de 2 3 retter hvor vi lige sku have 1 ekstra bid. Ellers var smagen af det hele ganske fin

Fint med kinesisk servering, men når 1 person ud af 7 ikke har fået nogle af sine bestillinger før alle andre er færdige med at spise, holder det ikke rigtig. Nævnte de manglende retter efter 45 min og 2 min efter stod det på bordet...

I lover the atmosphere in the restaurant and the waiters were all good and friendly. The food tasted very good but you definitely have to be better on serving the plates on the same time. From we got in the first course it took 15 min before the next course came and the after 30-40 min the last course. So we couldn’t enjoy our food together and that makes the experience very sad. So please improve this because you got a nice place with tasty food.
