    A classic spot in Chinatown where everything is incredibly delicious, cooked quickly and surprisingly cheap! This place has been open for a long time for a good reason. We love their tang gei congee.

    One of the best good-cheap eat places in Chinatown, Manhattan. One of the "dirty hole in the wall" joints. Don't let the apperance scare you off. Very authentic Cantonese street food.

    This is a cash only establishment. They even have an ATM at the front of the store. They have decently sized portions of food for cheap :) get their roast pork! Tastes different than other ones.

    Legit canto spot that made me super nostalgic. You know it’s legit when there’s no English translations for some things. Roast duck and bbq pork with rice is 💯

    Holy damn the congee / jook was SUPER GOOD here. The you tiao is dense and fantastic too. Topped off with a side of cold roast pork, and I was tearing up.

    If you want cheap, consistently good Chinese food, look no further. We love to order the roasted pork over rice - it's the best around!

    Great place! The beef with eggplant and garlic is delicious. Beware of the fried rice with salted fish and chicken, it's super salty. Only order if you need a boost of sodium in your diet.

    The you tiao here is the best. My parents noticed a decline in quality over the decades, but it's still pretty good by my standards. Expect hasty service.

    My go to spot every time I’m feeling sick or it’s a rainy day. Tang jai jook (congee) with a side of yau tiu (dough stick). And gong chow ngau hor (beef chow fun).

    This is some of the best roast pork in Chinatown. A serving over rice will set you back about five bucks. Cash only.

    If you need a hot congee in a rainy or cold day together with roast pork , this is the place.

    The roast pork (cha siew) had nice charred bits but also lots of fatty parts and was hacked to shreds. Beef brisket and tendon noodle didn't have much beef. Cheap and trusty but not great food.

    The roast duck ($14 for half) and steamed dumplings w/ oyster sauce is to die for.

    Their thousand year old egg and pork congee is even better than congee village! It is very thick and they give you a lot more eggs and meat!

    Once you've put your childish giggles in the rearview mirror (we don't judge), set your sights on Big Wong's lobster. You'll get 2 for $20, each seasoned with fresh ginger and covered in scallions. Read more

    Absolutely the best roast pork you will find in New York. My Go-To is the roast pork and soy sauce chicken over rice. Get extra ginger! Trust me, because, well, you know...

    If you're looking for a quick bite for lunch, this is the place to go. Get the spare ribs. "Finger-lickin' good" doesn't just apply to Colonel Sander's chicken. Read more

    Get anything from the front of the house: roast duck, roast pork, soy-sauce chicken, wonton soup, congee, ... Watch the cooks give a master class on how to use a meat cleaver.

    Rowdy and not the most modern restaurant. But cheap and REAL Cantonese food. Just like home. :)
