"Food: unnecessarily fussy Service ambiance: far from 2 Michelin worthy Value: very subpar I would not eat here again or recommend that anybody does for the price they charge. How this place got a Michelin star let alone two, I'll never know. The experience is just not worth the money, time, or distinction. Was it bad? Far from. It was perfectly okay. But okay is many steps from 2 Michelin stars or 225 pounds per person. Strike 1: being locked out of the restaurant on arrival. 5pm seating reservation, arrived at 4:55 and was sent out in the cold bc they weren't ready as if we were the strange ones for being basically on time. 2 other parties arrived while we waited, all equally as confused, and they let us in late. Odd to make that first impression. Any other restaurant would welcome us in to wait at the bar with a drink in hand or something. Strike 2: being sat basically outside in the makeshift enclosed terrace space. The draft every time someone opened the door. The streetside smoke that wafted in. The little lawn chairs, practically, that we sat in. Not at all the cozy and comfortable hospitality you'd expect. That's before the food actually began to arrive. I really wanted to like this food. We just ate at ATOMIX where they masterfully elevate korean cuisine and I wanted so much to see the same done for Chinese food. But it was very much showing technique for the sake of technique, fussiness for the sake of fussiness, but also ends up being a jack of all trades, master of none t type of situation. I had a mediocre lukewarm soup dumpling. A mediocre cold tiny helping of Tofu pudding, a muffled down version of Yunnan raw beef salad, hand pulled noodles that got fried (but you typically eat that for the texture, not to be just shown a video of the technique?? .. Basically all things you'd get for much better at a regular restaurant that specializes in these regions,at a fraction of the price. The dining experience here and the versions of these dishes didn't elevate the original dish with technique (in fact the original dishes are simple, humble but very technique heavy , did not provide a point of view from the chef, and was not anchored by and did not portray an authentic experience from the chef. These are the reasons you eat at a 2 Michelin star restaurant for many times the price. A wong's menu did not deliver. the actual service It was not rude, but also was a little clumsy, disingenuous, and impersonal. The backservers were actually super sweet but they were not trained for the elevated dining style. I personally don't care about service etiquette at all, but the stark contrast between the roles is kind of jarring. Probably the worst service we had in London and at the nicest restaurant we booked. I would just prefer a polished concept at least to be deserving of the price tag. This was the most disappointing meal in our 2 week trip to Europe. Sadly a wong did not properly elevate Chinese cuisine to the western stage, in my view as a Chinese American diner."

What an incredible experience. Tashi and Matthew gave my mother and I an incredible dim sum experience. This restaurant is worth every Michelin star.

It's been 3 months since I visited A. Wong, and the duck yolk custard bun still lives rent free in my mind. I think about it daily and look forward to my next visit.

Simply amazing. Great service and awesome food. The Dim Sum was delicious, as was the Peking Duck. The King Prawns though, along with the crispy beef were the star of the show! Great value for money and it's clear why they have a Michelin Star !

Food 4.5/5.0 Service 4.0/5.0 Value 3.0/5.0 Decor 4.0/5.0 Overall 4.5/5.0 Very cool spot in what has become a not-that-cool part of town. The dinner prix fixe pricing was certainly not shy, but the courses were aplentiful and felt okay. A bit disconcerting that few if any diners appeared to be Chinese, though the profile of the kitchen was comforting. The courses are designed to take the diner through certain regions of China. The food in general was reasonably creative and quite delish. Glad to see good Chinese food in town. Would love to come back for dim sum one day.

The biggest problem with eating dim sum is: there could be too many delicious bites to describe. The restaurant itself is pretty big, maybe 60 seats including a dozen at the bar, and almost every seat was full during my weekday prixe-fixe lunch. The servers were knowledgeable and personable... and busy. A small new item arrived in front of me about every 5 minutes, plus the wines. And the food was excellent: the 999 layered scallop puff, was technically exacting, and beautifully presented... The Memories of Peking Duck, was also delicious, although I can 't ever remember having shaved truffle and caviar on my Peking duck... my local Cantonese restaurant must be in a more working class neighb...

We made a reservation here for a la carte lunch, and it was a wonderful experience, but not all of the food was a total hit. Everything is priced by the piece, so it does add up. I definitely had some favorites and some I wouldn't order again, but everything was beautifully plated and I had a wonderful experience. One of my favorites was the scallop cheung fun. They had such unique and innovative plays on traditional dim sum food. Like the shumai and har gao were even done differently than usual (and done extremely well!! . The service was also quite nice, but I did have to get their attention a couple times to notice I needed a refill on my tea. The restaurant itself was set up in an intere... Ver carta

Not having been back to Hong Kong for some time, I don't know any other restaurant that has fine dining for dim sum. It certainly doesn't exist in NYC. Which makes A.Wong a must go to spot for any fans of dim sum. I wish there were Canto chefs in NY that are as imaginative and innovative as Chef Wong. Scallop puff was simply amazing. It's beyond describing so I won't try. Just get it. Duck yolk custard bun was probably the best thing there. Soft chewy bun with creamy custard inside with a nice toasted bottom. Must get. Prawn roll was good but you could skip. Wagyu tart with peas was a nice one bite wonder. Good but you can pass. The shrimp dumpling with foam and pork shu mai and pork crackli...

Typically, I wouldn 't write about a restaurant that I didn 't like, but A. Wong the Chinese restaurant outside of China with the most Michelin stars was that much of a crushing disappointment. With waiting lists until November, my mom and I literally ran across London when we got a call that they could squeeze us in. Alas, the food just wasn 't that good. For every dish, we could think of a significantly cheaper restaurant in China that could do better. We could make better tasting food. With every dish served, we grew more anxious for the meal to be over. A. Wong 's issue is not 'inauthenticity, ' which may be a concern for some diners. We have loved Chinese fusions and creative dim sum be...
