| - Long Wong's is the home to chachkies from decades past, a storefront reminiscent of a tourist destination, jokes of an off-color nature, and really decent cheap food.
I have to disagree with the consensus that this is fantastic food and the best wings in town. But, it is certainly good and won't break your wallet. I'm absolutely not complaining. I just think it was merely "ok". The staff was pretty friendly even though we swarmed their dining room and rearranged their furniture, so that is a plus.
Walking in was overwhelming! It's a small place with wall-to-wall knick-knacks and paddy-whacks. You order at the counter, and there is plenty to look at while waiting for your food to come out. My fella and I ordered a 12-piece BBQ wings with fried zucchini and a large pepsi. The wings were very good, though they could have been more meaty and flavorful. The zucchini did not impress. I do not, will not, can not do the spicy thing, so we opted out of "the inferno". That said, I heard rumors that it wasn't that hot, so I stuck my finger in some sauce to try. It was too hot for me (but hey, so is pepperoni) but I admit it wasn't nearly as hot as I'd expect an inferno might be. I'd call it a medium/hot.
For a festive evening where I get to cover my face in bbq sauce without judgement, and both Andrew and I leave fed and happy for $12, I'd call it a great success. I would not say no to a return trip.
