http://www.london-eating.co.uk/23790.htm Wong Kei Readers Reviews - London Eating en-gb Copyright: (C) London Eating I've never gone to Wong Kei expecting much, but I've always gotten what I paid for, large generous serves of basic Chinese food for a fiver. Yeah, the waiters can be hustly and rude, but that is part of what you expect, and I can be fairly surly myself at times. No complaints at all about this place. http://www.london-eating.co.uk/2971.htm Me and a group of friends went to Wong Kei for a mates birthday dinner/get together. We were seated quickly, the waiters seemed polite and asked us for our drinks orders and they came right away literally in about 2 minutes. We were seated quickly and once we made our orders they arrived within about 10 to 15 minutes however one of my mates ... http://www.london-eating.co.uk/2971.htm On the May Bank Holiday I went to the Wong Kei with two friends. From all accounts we were expecting rude waiters, a restaurant bursting at the seams, and an eagerness to get us eating and out as soon as possible. I was struck by the fact that it wasn't full, even on a Saturday night, and that the waiters were polite and friendly. The food ... http://www.london-eating.co.uk/2971.htm I have been to Wong Kei several times and they always serve food of quite a good quality at very reasonable prices. For a lot less than a tenner you can have a satisfactory meal which represents value for money--for example you can have the sweet and sour soup, a main course with say chicken and cashew nuts, rice and choice of drink. You don't ... http://www.london-eating.co.uk/2971.htm I lived in London in the late 1980s and often ate at Wong Kei. Last year I took my wife and two young children there and was delighted to find the place had not changed! Even the prices were only slightly higher ( perhaps 20 per cent, over 20 years! ). If you expect service with a smile, go elsewhere. If you want reasonable food, in large ... http://www.london-eating.co.uk/2971.htm I would like to put the record straight, this place isn't a restaurant with waiters who take their time to explain the dishes etc. Decor is dated and the food is served in plastic bowls/plates. This place is your Chinese equivalent of a "greasy spoon" basic, cheap, quick and easy. Go here if you are after a good quick, cheap feed. ... http://www.london-eating.co.uk/2971.htm Negative points: 1: poor food. 2: not very clean. 3: rude service (don't ask me why but some people think this is part of the whole experience). Positive points: 1: cheap. 2: large portions. Conclusion: if you're hungry and not fussy you may want to go to this place for a cheap meal. http://www.london-eating.co.uk/2971.htm I went to Wong Kei once on a friend's recommendation as I heard it was famed for having terribly rude staff but good food at a reasonable price - indeed the food is reasonably priced but the food isn't that good - the presentation and service is sloppy and who wants to dine in a restaurant where you can't even bear to use the washrooms? http://www.london-eating.co.uk/2971.htm I first came to Wong Kei two months ago and have never looked back. The food is the best Chinese food i have tasted in London (Strongly Recommend Crispy Belly Pork on Hot Rice) and the atmosphere is awesome. You sit on a huge round table with your friends and some others that they squeeze on and are immediately given free Green Tea which is ... http://www.london-eating.co.uk/2971.htm My Boyfriend took me to Wong Kei on Saturday and I have to say it was an experience!! My Boyfriend ate in Wong Kei every lunchtime for 6 years when he was a Taylor in Saville Row. He struck up a relationship with all the staff and after not visiting the restaurant for 4 years they recognised him instantly! We had a lovely meal, the food was ... http://www.london-eating.co.uk/2971.htm
