Chang Jiang: Reviews & Ratings
The Chinese food here is spot on and is the best Chinese food around. The rice is tender, fluffed, and cooked to perfection! Even the entrées have just the right amount of sauce. Other Chinese restaurants load up on sauces that are oily and drench the entire meal. I highly recommend Chang Jiang! The only downside and criticism from giving this place a 5-Star rating is the lack of electronic money use(AKA Credit Card or digital pay). You have to pay everything in cash, which is ridiculous, even though there is an ATM in the store that I'm reluctant to use. It's 2021 going on 2022. They need to get with the program of accepting card. More and more patrons are ditching paper money and converting to paperless payment(given this viral plague we are in). Even for delivery it's all cash. Great food, however please get up to date with credit cards. You'll get more business, given I am the first person to place this restaurant on YELP to promote their great food and business.

The rave reviews echo my sentiments, particularly from frequent visitor Von Michael T., who raved about the quality and finesse in their dishes. He notes, "The rice is tender, fluffed, and cooked to perfection!" In less experienced hands, this could be overlooked, but Chang Jiang nails it, along with the perfectly balanced sauces that accompany their entrées.
However, it’s essential to address a notable downside mentioned by patrons. Currently, Chang Jiang operates as a cash-only establishment, which can be a limitation in today's digital age. While they do have an ATM on-site, it would be beneficial for the restaurant to adapt to the trends of cashless payments. This small adjustment could enhance the dining experience and encourage more guests to indulge in their flavors.
