Wongs Gourmet

I wasn’t happy with my orange chicken it was hard to chew, the egg rolls weren’t good at all. server was nice. To bad the food wasnt.

While I’m not sure if they earn the title of «Gourmet» (their dishes are remarkably average), one thing is for sure — they’re consistent.
I’ve been to several Chinese restaurants where you get fatty chicken during one visit and lean chicken the next.
You can count in Wong’s to deliver the same quality, week-​in week-​out. Combined with fair prices and their proximity to my home, it’s becoming a staple.

I would say do not let the low ratings deter you from this place! The service was great and quick! The food was even better! We ordered a large feast for the family and nothing disappointed! My personal favs were the wontons and sesame chicken! Enjoy!

I was really hoping for more, especially considering their large menu and the option of ordering online, and even an iphone app, but I was very disappointed. Clearly they need to work on their kitchen skills before their web skills.
The lo mein was very oily. So oily it was actually shiny. Not good. Fried rice had the same oily taste and the egg rolls were actually grainy. I still can’t figure out how that could be, what are those little grains, but there they were. Ew. Oily and bland.
I still have an oily taste in my mouth an hour after finishing the meal.

I ordered from here for pick up as I don’t live to far from here now, and I must say, it really wasn’t worth the drive.
Now I have had plenty of Chinese in my life, and most of it has been moderate to excellent, but what I will say about this place, is that it’s not even moderately good. It’s bland. It’s DEFINITELY not gourmet.
The General Tso’s Chicken wasn’t spicy whatsoever, as a matter of fact I’m pretty sure that it was the same sauce as the sesame chicken, only they didn’t put sesame seeds on it. Add to it that the chicken was soggy, the broccoli was soggy, and the fried rice had NO moisture, I thought my combo platter would have been better fed to my neighbors dog.
The eggroll was fried in oil that wasn’t hot enough which was evident by the fact that it too was soggy, and there was nothing delicious about what was inside of it.
If there was one thing that could have saved my meal (and this review) it would have been the wontons… well up until you dipped them in the «sweet and sour sauce.»
The $ 12 I paid for my food ended up being a total waste. Not to mention the travel time there and back. I was highly disappointed with my food, and I don’t plan on returning, or recommending them.

I had an errand in Fridley, so I wanted to try something new. Warning bring a very heavy sweater in winter, they don’t turn the heat up past 69 when it’s 3 outside. I tried the chicken with pineapple, it had a sweet sauce and it was just ok. Same with the eggroll and the sesame pork. Since no one has reviewed this yet, I’m guessing they go elsewhere for their Chinese fix. Canned soda is served. Everything about this place, food, décor, service is average. Nothing really gourmet about it. However when you go to use the bathrooms, they are shared with a pizza joint 2 doors down, and the aroma is fabulous. It’s also a 5 star place. That, I’ll try next time.
