| - This place is generally better. I was first introduced to Congee Wong by my sister a few years back and I've loved them ever since. On this last visit however, I don't know if it was because they were super busy or what but the service was bad tonight. They were slow and I usually don't have to ask twice for water here but I did this time. If I had to rate just this visit, I would give it a 3 because of service. That being said, the food was still just fantastic and I know that usually, the service is better. Just better though. Not exceptional. More efficient if anything. I love the food here and as others have written, you have to try the Fried Chili Turnip cakes. On this visit, we had the chili fried turnip, bok choy with mushrooms and the house pad Thai. This was far too much for 2 people but at $27.80, I can't complain.... Left overs are yum. I don't know if I've ever had "real" Pad Thai, my company told me it wasn't. I'm generally not a fan of Pad Thai but I love eating, so I tried some. Not a fan but there were tons of shrimp, chicken, egg and tofu in it and I mean, tons of shrimp. The bok choy with mushrooms was delicious and they served us a huge plate. No complaints here. The turnip cakes: I need to find out the secret because I can't help myself when these are placed in front of me. Sooo, will I be back? You bethca! My regular dishes I usually get with more friends/family are: Seafood Congee, Chili fried turnip cakes, Cantonese Chow Mein, Fried shrimp wontons, shrimp fried rice and then we usually get one other random dish. Yes, this is a ton of food and of course we bring some home those are my favs. Give em a try and enjoy your meal!
