Ming Wong: Reviews & Ratings
Chinese Comfort Food at its finest! Congee. Roast duck. Bok Choy. A simple lunch with so much flavor. I am fond of eating roast duck in Chinese restaurants. When it’s well made, it’s superb - lIke here. Kee and I met to go to her favorite spot in Chinatown where she is a regular customer. Everyone knows her. She knew how much I like duck and ordered a plate of half a duck. The rich aroma perfumed its way to our table. The crisp skin glistened. A first bite and my heart sang with joy. A large bowl of congee with fish was Kee’s order along with the traditional long pastry that resembled a churro. Bok choy and rice accompanied this lunch. We both ate heartily and yet there was enough to take home. Several customers were enjoying their meals. Service was fine. The restroom on the ground floor is ideal. The stairs to the ones downstairs have fabric covering them that are not fitted well and it feels uneasy. Plus the restrooms are narrow so it’s uncomfortable and would be difficult for a corpulent person. Highly recommended.
I actually found out about this spot because Tasty Hand Pulled Noodles told me about it. I always go to Tasty for duck noodles. The waitress at Tasty told me that this spot is where they buy the aforementioned duck. So I went to check it out. It did not disappoint. The spring rolls were crispy. The duck was tasty. The buns were steamed perfectly. The vegetables were classic stir fried fare with a delicate sauce. The whole menu is very reasonably priced. Service is friendly and prompt. What more can one ask for?
I had the best roasted duck in here. It was so flavorful and delicious. My friend brought me and it was on his treat, so I don't know how much it costs. If you pay in cash, it can be cheaper than pay with card. We didn't wait for too long as we went there on a weekday. They also offered free Chinese tea and you can also ask for water too. I want to come back here and try different menus.
I ordered the 3 meats choice with rice , roasted duck, pork and BBQ pork were all very tasty, large portion overall , however my roasted duck had very little meat on them , I wish they could be a little more meatier
Good Chinese restaurant in China town. I went for BBQ things and it turned out out so good. Not so salty like others in the area. Seating are comfort. Restroom are available down stairs. Cash is cheaper for payment. Enjoy!
A visit to New York Chinatown should be added to your itinerary. The food was and delicious.Staff were friendly and patient. A great first stop to take in the whole atmosphere. The weather has been amazing. Truly enjoying our visit to New York city.
Lovely restaurant. I came here specifically for the Singapore chow mei fun because the internet said it was a good place for it in Chinatown and it did not disappoint! So many places make it terribly but it was perfect here :) The staff were nice, was greeting and offered tea immediately too. Definitely recommend this place.
Great Chinese BBQ place with traditional Cantonese eats. Haven't had a salt cured fish and chicken fried rice as good in over a decade. Must try!!
