| - My wife and I are always trying to find new local & cheap places to eat near home. We were actually headed right next door for Chipotle when we drove past Long Wongs and decided to give it a try. We are not scared away from divey looking food joints as we have had some really great food from similar places...so the look inside and out was not bothersome. Upon entering we were handed menus and told we could sit anywhere we'd like. We chose the bar seating. It was not busy and only a handful of tables had customers seated. The menu prices are pretty cheap and we decided on nachos, a pastrami sandwich w/ Swiss (only cheese options American & Swiss), & and order of boneless wings to share.
Our waitress must have been new because she did not know the menu. When we asked for the boneless wings with garlic Parmesan sauce, she stated we couldn't get that sauce with those wings and it was only available for the regular wings. So we asked if she could do a sub for the Parmesan sauce as they just pour the sauce on top. She didn't know if there were any options for an alternate cheese on the sandwich. After talking to the cook everything was fine and we ordered exactly what we wanted...minus the provolone I wanted on my sandwich.
The drinks, silverware, napkins, & straws are self serve and the soda is dispensed through one of those fancy soda machines in an area in the corner of the restaurant near the bathrooms....yuck. Yet, the waitress brings you glasses with ice but will not fill it for you....even sitting at the bar. They were out of my drink of choice and the soda tasted off.
The nachos came out first.....COLD. Basically the nachos were chips, a small amount of room temp nacho cheese, sliced jalapenos, fresh cold sliced tomatoes, guac (with NO seasonings AT ALL), & a very small amount of COLD ground beef on top. We each took one bit...harrible!
Needless to say after the one bite we were totally off put and let our waitress know that the nachos were the worst we'd ever had and she could cancel the rest of our order and we took our business next door.
We will never try this place again.
