I don't ever leave reviews, but I found urine on my napkins. My boyfriend has been going to this place for years and LOVES it and introduced it to me. We both love the food and it is a shame to leave this bad review. We ordered a to-go order. In the bag was a fork and some white napkins. When I wiped my face with a napkin I noticed the sharp smell of urine, and saw that there was a yellow drop on my napkin. Immediately we checked the other napkins in the stack and saw there was a yellow drop on the others, probably where it had soaked through the top one. We are so confused and disgusted, and obviously didn't finish the food after because who knows. We don't know how this could have happened, on accident or on purpose. I wanted to call the restaurant first so maybe they could find out what happened but they didn't listen to me and just insisted their napkins are clean. Well, the plastic bag was closed up when we picked up our order so we don't know how those urine drops could have gotten on those napkins otherwise. I am NOT imagining this. This is a humiliating experience and we won't be coming back.
Food not good at all. We waited 45 mins for the peking duck expecting it to be worth the wait but no it was like it was just heated in a microwave. The server DEMANDED tip and even ask more. I already put a tip but wants more. We have friends who are from Japan and tip is not something they are use but the server demanded her to give tip. Do not bother to go here.
No doubt about it, the name grabs your attention. After you get the giggles out over the name, take a walk in the wild side and venture in for a meal. You won’t be disappointed by the warm hospitality and tasty food. There’s a lot to choose from on the menu and the staff are quick to happy to help select something. I recommend the jelly fish and short ribs.
I saw some reviews about people getting harassed for tips, but I encountered no such thing. I usually tip 15 to 20%. The food was quite fresh, and service was of high quality. This is an authentic Chinese joint, a real slice of life. The menu was extensive, and the only thing I regret is that I did not try the frog legs as well.
My partner and I were looking for food in general (after failed Paella) and went to China Town. The majority of the restaurants were closed and we were starving. We stumbled upon this 'downstairs' place and decided to go in. We were greeted immediately and sat down. We ordered Pork Fried Rice and Chicken Lo Mein. The food arrived in a timely manner and it was so so good. Friendly staff. We will definitely be back! Thank you New Big Wong for satisfying our hunger!
We had 14 people in our group, and heard this was a "must try" Chinese restaurant by Washington Post, which I must say is a big disappointment. The waiter was trying to sit us in two 4 people tables, that was impossible, when we asked for half of us to sit at the other table, the waiter started cursing in Cantonese, and he didn't realize I understand Cantonese. The food was acceptable, nothing stood out as exceptional, just average, every day Chinese Americanize food. The service was terrible, the waiter was insulting and confrontational, he was upset at the gratuity our group gave, he single out one of our group and demanded more. This is not a restaurant that you should experience, Don't set yourself up for disappointment, save your time and money, and go somewhere else.
I stopped by Big Wong DC in Chinatown last night to give them a try.. food was good.. my only recommendation is not go at night, after dark.. alot of homeless people, loitering and etc outside on the street, I felt very unsafe..
Been coming here for years… authentic if you actually appreciate traditional flavors and this kind of atmosphere. I recommend the Singapore style rice noodles. Ordered them recently and they taste just how I remember from years ago.
I stayed across the street in a hotel and this was definitely a late night spot to hit if you were looking for something quick to eat. I have never had any Chinese spots like this. Their food was on a different level. Not your regular carry out joint when it came to the food. I literally cannot find a place better in Baltimore or in DC now. The vibe is nice too if dinning in late night.
Went on a cold Friday night and was literally the only people in here. The waitress left us alone and brought the food out as it was ready. Personally I don't enjoy having people interrupt my meals, so I was happy.The spring rolls were decent. Not a fan of the egg rolls. The general tso's chicken was good (though it wasn't spicy at all) and the sweet and sour chicken was good.Definitely overpriced for what it is, but there aren't many Chinese food options in the area, so sometimes you have to pay a premium.Wouldn't recommend it if you are just visiting the area, but if you're a local and haven't had Chinese food in a while, this place has it.
