    Wong Kei 旺記 is Cantonese Chinese. 旺Wong is popular and 記Kei is the Chinese version of 's. 記 is pronounced like "Gay" in Cantonese but locals pronounce Kei like "Key" in English (記 is"Ji" in Mandarin)

    Cheap food! Cash only. Don't ask for ice w/ drink or extra fried egg w/ your dish or you'll get told off! :p Salt & pepper pork chop is excellent on a good day. Beef brisket noodle soup, cheap & good

    I’m happy to say that the one of a kind atmosphere of Wong Kei is alive and well after all the years I’ve been visiting. Dry shredded chilli beef is great.

    One of the best meals in London - Sweet & Sour chicken on white rice. Consistently fantastic. Get the dish that comes with rice for ~£5 and good size. Bottomless tea too!

    Iconic eatery. A lifesaver when you’re low on funds. CASH ONLY | NO CREDIT CARDS | NO CHEQUES. Enhance your experience by muttering ‘debit card’ or ‘Apple Pay’. Service with a frown and a barb... 🤬

    Bland atmosphere but excellent food for the price! Cold cuts of roasted pork and belly. Sechuan shrimp, seafood noodles and beef fried rice. Cash only though!

    If you are alone, you will be asked to join any table at the ground floor. Otherwise upstairs or downstairs. They offer free Chinese tea. No service charge added to your bill. Authentic Chinese food!

    The fried rice (either shredded chicken or minced beef) is really good. Reminds me of being in Hong Kong

    It's so different now! Waiters used to be very rude. Either I grew meaner or they learnt to be polite! Anyway, price are very reasonable! Portion is huge. Suggest sharing the food.

    Good value - probably not the highest quality meal in Chinatown. Nice atmosphere, lots of Chinese eating here. Busy.

    There were two black long hair in my dish. It was a prawn with hot bean sauce. Just be careful!

    No service charge, massive portions, great and free Chinese Tea. If you don't mind sharing a large table with others, a recommendation!

    If you look at the state of the sticks and bowl you will realise that the free tea is not for drinking

    Cheap easy meal in London. This costs 5.8 pounds. However, staffs and their services are not friendly.

    Aromatic. Duck. Pancakes. Enough said. Hard to go wrong with many things at this old establishment.

    I now unashamedly go here for the banter. Last time the waiter refused to take my order because it would 'take too long'. The belly pork is where it's at!

    Worst food ever tried!!I've had the meat and rice dish and the meat was awfully greasy and chewy. They also never bothered to bring one of the dishes we've ordered, as they were "too busy". Neveragain

    the young waiters are like gangsters, I recommend the food if you are white or from Hong Kong or if you are justin bieber. I care about who I give my money to.

    Used 2b regular. Service never the best, recently it gets worse. We paid at the counter, they gave us out change back minus £2 tips that they put straight into their bucket without our consent! Avoid.
