Sweet Wonton King — Restaurant in New York

My friend and I checked this spot out after seeing it on TikTok. We came mainly for the soups, and those were really good—hot and flavorful, definitely lived up to the hype. The service was friendly, and the space itself was clean and spacious.

When it came to the entrées, though, we weren’t as impressed. My friend ordered the General Tso’s chicken and I had the sesame chicken. The food was decent but came out lukewarm, not piping hot like the soups. Taste-wise, it was good, but honestly nothing that stood out compared to a solid local Chinese food spot.

For us, it was worth the drive mostly to hang out and try something new, but if you already have a good Chinese restaurant near you, I’d say stick with your usual. Still, the soup, service, and atmosphere made it a positive experience overall. That’s why I’m giving it 4 stars...

I ordered a shrimp and pork wonton ramen, the wontons tasted bland and the soup has barely any flavor except for salt. Would not recommend as instant ramen tastes better. The other dishes ordered by my family were also salty, oily, in tiny servings, and worse than food made by my mom at home. Furthermore, we were chased down after exiting the restaurant and demanded to give an extra ten dollar tip on top of the tip we already paid. After returning to our place, we learned that the tipping culture here is fifteen to twenty percent, but being demanded money in a foreign country after a long road trip really ruined our mood and holiday spirit. Overall, would not recommend and had a horrible experience eating at...

I was really looking forward to enjoying a good meal, but unfortunately, this place fell short. The "beef vegetable" dish was a joke - it came with beef and sprouts, but no actual vegetables. The beef stew looked stale and old, like it had been sitting out for hours, exposed to the open air.

The noodles or whatever that was, looked like toy food, and the taste was disgusting. Everything about the meal was terrible. The food was so bad it even made my teeth sensitive, like I had just drunk battery acid.

Honestly, if I wasn't so hungry, I wouldn't have even bothered eating this subpar food. Thankfully, my grandmother didn't get sick from eating it. Needless to say, I...
