Well, here are the improvements need to make.
2) Waiters need to be more professional, just get everybody to go to Yangtze and you see how waiters act there. When you are not busy serving customers, you need to stand and watch over the tables, not to sit down and chat with customers or play computer games at the cash register.
All in all, it's a great business concept, but the management lack of experience in running restaurant.
Well, here are the improvements need to make.
1) Although the Chinese are the main source of customers, but we are in Ottawa where 98% of the people are non Chinese, focuses should be on how to show and teach local Canadians how to eat hot pot. A picture book with how to eat hot pot should be placed on all the tables. I found most Canadians are humiliated when they are there and they will certainly not come back or recommend anybody to come. That's not how you become successful in Ottawa, we are not Toronto, and for any business to success you need local support.

3) Washroom need to be cleaned every 20 mins and supply need to be filled. I found the washroom to be messy and short in supplies.
All in all, it's a great business concept, but the management lack of experience in running restaurant.

扬子江的服务质量差,渥太华差不多众所皆知了,你让小肥羊的服务员去学那些几句英语都说不好的广东老女人?
难道是王婆卖瓜,自卖自夸么...
Er... They're reputed to have good service when the customers are Canadian.
They do, without a doubt, know how to manage a restaurant in Ottawa. It's not about server the Chinese community or any particular group, it's about being able to attract the general public.
I'm not vouching for them, but the previous poster does have an excellent point.

There are culture differences when it comes to how to serve and how to behave in a restaurant between Chinese and Canadian.
1)In Chinese restaurants when you need a waiter you wave you hand and they will come and ask what you need, in Canadian restaurant it’s the waiter who should come and attend your table and ask if you need help, to wave your hand and get the waiter to come would consider a rude gesture. Maybe that’s why some people feel they are not getting served well in Yangtze, there are certain expectations you expect from the servers and there are certain expectation you expect from your customers. Customer is never God, who ever said customer is God that’s just bull shit.
2)In Chinese restaurant it’s more about the food, in Canadian restaurant it’s more about the experience. Maybe that why Chinese are not as picky when it comes to bad decorations and dirty washrooms, hey as long as the food is good who cares about anything else?
3)I know there are people here who are not happy with the service in Yangtze, but their waiter certainly speak good English, and they are attentive, when they are not serving, they are checking all the tables and standing there. There are always greeting when you come in and there are always greetings when you leave. If you need help you make eye contact and they will come and ask if you need help.
I am in no way related to Yangtze and there are certainly more than just Yangtze offer good services.
