大旺饭店

Big Wong is a well established China Town eatery, known for its roasted meats. You have the option of dining in, and ordering from a waitress, or take out, in which case you tell the man at the register what you’d like. I had the 2 BBQ Meats Over Rice Combination (You pick 2 from an assortment), I chose duck (because I’m a duck fanatic) and the roast pork (which is different than Roast Pig, which is pork shoulder with crispy skin). The meat was not only flavorful, but the meat was also juicy and tender. Big Wong is very affordable, and a great place to have a meal.

If you’re looking for classic, no-nonsense Chinese food in NYC, Big Wong is the place to go. This spot has become one of my favorite go-to restaurants whenever I’m craving comfort food that hits the spot every single time. The roast meats here are absolutely legendary. The roast pork is tender with just the right amount of crispy edges and a sweet-savory glaze that’s incredibly addictive. The roast duck is also fantastic—perfectly seasoned with crispy skin and juicy meat. I always order a combination over rice, and they’re very generous with the portions. You’ll leave full and satisfied. Another must-try dish is the wonton noodle soup. The broth is light but flavorful, and the wontons are plump and packed with shrimp. It’s a simple dish but done so well. If you’re feeling extra hungry, adding roast duck on top is the way to go. The service is fast and efficient—don’t expect small talk or fancy plating. This is the kind of place where you sit down, order, and the food comes out hot within minutes. That’s part of its charm. It feels authentic and nostalgic, like stepping into a busy Cantonese eatery in Hong Kong. The prices are very reasonable, especially for the quality and portion size. It’s honestly hard to find this level of value in Manhattan these days. In short, Big Wong is a Chinatown staple for a reason. Delicious food, generous portions, quick service, and that comforting, old-school vibe that keeps you coming back. Whether you’re a local or just visiting, this is a must-visit spot if you love Chinese food.

Big Wong is one of those classic old school Chinatown spots that’s been around forever. The ginger scallion fried fish and the lobster were both excellent super flavorful and cooked just right. The vibe is nofrills, exactly what you’d expect from a traditional Chinatown restaurant. Just a heads-up, it’s cash only, so come prepared.

Big Wong is one of those classic Cantonese restaurants where you can count on to get all the classic rice, noodles and congee dishes. I don’t come to Chinatown as much as I used to so I was happy to see that Big Wong has gone unchanged. I’ve been coming here since childhood. I placed an order to go consisting of a roast pork & chicken over rice, century egg & pork congee and a fried cruller. I had the congee for lunch which had a generous amount of pork and century egg - perfect for a cold day. I saved the roast pork & chicken for dinner which was also a generous dish. Unfortunately, the roast pork was dry, probably because it wasn’t consumed for some time. I was greeted with a smile and Service was fast!

We went with a friend to China town to have lunch and do some food shopping. We took the subway down and back which is speedy. Getting off on canal and then a short walk to Big Wong. Our Chinese friend orders for us so we get the best deal. Two types of roast pork. Really delicious. Cash only. Highly recommended. Stopped in again today to order roast pork to take home for dinner. Large container as shown for $18.50. Not bad price and delicious. Rey busy place every time we stop there.
