Golden Wonton King 糖潮滋味館 — Restaurant in New York

DO NOT ever order from the set menu here! They are a huge rip-off and the prices are more than DOUBLE than the regular menu prices!!

Our group of 17 dined in reserved 2 tables and ordered two set menu, each costing $388 for each table.

However upon examining the menu, this $388 set menu price is more than DOUBLE the regular menu price, if we were to order the dishes individually.

Here's the cost of each dish on the regular menu: 1x Tofu Casserole = $18.99 1x House Special Style Grouper Fillet = $17.99 1x Poached Snow Pea Sprout = $22.99 1x Twin Lobster (price posted on wall inside restaurant) = $29.99 1x Famous Garlic Aromatic Crispy Chicken = $37.98 ($18.99 for half) 1x Pan Fried Veal Chop w. Black Pepper Sauce = $23.99 1x Dried Squid Stir Fry = $20.99 1x Fish Maw Soup = $19.99 Total = $192.91

If we hadn't reserved the set menu, $192.91 is the price we would have paid had we ordered each dish individually off the menu, compared to the $388 we paid.

This is outrageous, almost equivalent to scamming unsuspecting customers. My mom reserved the tables, and she's at fault for not doing the math at first, but it's also because that she trusted your menu prices would be fair. She would have never though that you could charge $388 for a set that is only $192.91 on regular menu. No honest business should ever do that.

I understand that your business just opened and is new, and there may have been a mistake in setting the set menu price.

I hope the owner will contact me to resolve this billing...

We had a late lunch there recently after watching it opened up in the neighborhood. What they sell are mostly not comfort food, namely specialty wontons, dumplings, congees and or classic Cantonese snack items, and no sweets or desserts as commonly associated with its name, especially in Chinese - misleading at best. Food is Medicare, salty and small in portion size and pricey as in expensive. No parking lot and on-street meter parking is hard to find with other Korean eateries doing valet service, not here. Very basic & simple decor, nothing fancy or upscale, just your basic diner style food but semi-family restaurant pricing, and indifferent services. We ordered 4 items that came to over $30 before tax & tips, still hungry and order one more, still left without a full stomach & we aren't big eater. Braised stew beef is bland and isn't close to above average as one would expect, and the both is plain soup stock, and at $11 for a bowl, on the small side (one size only) just short of ripping off the customers. The $9 serving of 2 small pieces of pancake with 1 tiny slice of beef is just wow, OMG what is this & I am charged with. $50 lunch for 2 including meter parking 2 blocks away, no way, Jose. Never again. Go elsewhere & don't bother going there to waste your money & time. Guaranteed to be shocked & disappointed ☹️. We make sure to spread words among our own F&F to avoid & stay clear...

It was a complaint, but not the food, food was good, so I will give a 5-star for the food, if I can rate one of the servers, I would give zero stars.

We are from Maryland, went to New York to visit our friends, our friend has been there many times, she said the food is good, so she wanted to take us there for dinner. We have a baby boy, so as a new parents, we have to use a bag to carry all the baby stuffs, then it makes the bag heavy, and it was so crowded yesterday when we were there, they gave us a mall table for 6, no space for putting the bag and other stuffs, then my husband hung the bag on the chair, and when he got up, the chair fell on the floor and accidentally touched one of the waiter, he was so rude and loud starring at my husband yelling him in a bad attitude: 你小心的凳子啊， blah blah blah. It was so embarrassing in front of our friends and the table behind us, I was like did he mean to drop his chair on the floor like that? Did he mean to push the chair to fall on u? It was just a damn accident the chair fell by itself. I know he speaks hoishanese, I could just do the same way to him like he yelled at my husband, but with my friend’s family there, 我给面我噶朋友一家人， so I suck it up, if it happened...
