Duck Wong delicious Chinese restaurant. Welcoming staff. I went during lunch time and it was pack. I order my favorite chicken and broccoli with white rice. Within 10 minutes my meal was ready. Delicious and fresh.
I've been coming here for over 10 years, and the food has been consistently amazing. The chef is constantly adding new things to the menu. My go to is always the wonton noodle soup with braised beef stew. But you have to have it with his house made chili oil one of the best I've tasted. They have it charged so you can even buy one to take home. I always do one thing I can say for sure is you will not be disappointed with anything you order from the menu.
RATING: 3.5/5 - Duck Wong is fine + good as a local neighborhood spot. Their menu is EXTENSIVE and they constantly build on it - literally any kind of Chinese dish you want, they have a variation of it here! You can pretty much build your own Noodle Soup or Rice as well. Everything on the menu is decent. Their appetizers are really tasty and unique - we ordered some kind of Takoyaki-base pancake, which was really good, and I really like their Fried Chicken Wings app. Their Noodle Soup portions are quite generous. Honestly, you can't really go wrong with what you get here. The service is quick and they don't charge a credit card fee. Our food came pretty fast overall as well, which was nice! Reliable neighborhood spot, but doesn't compare to some other places I prefer.
After a year and numerous dining experiences at Duck Wong, officially updating my review to 5 stars! Duck Wong has become a staple in our Sunday lunch rotation. All noodle soups, rice dishes, specials, and appetizers are well priced with hefty portions - you really can't beat the prices in this area. I've tried quite a few things, but the wonton noodle soup remains my favorite. Wontons are gigantic, well seasoned, and delicious. Paired with their signature chili oil, and it's the ultimate comfort food. The wonton mein is always perfectly cooked, so the noodles retain that al dente springy, chewy texture. And it goes without saying, but their master broth across the noodle dishes is so simplistic but so good. I also really enjoy their spicy oil cuttlefish udon, yaki udon, and beef brisket noodles. All of the appetizers here that we've tried were tasty. Hot & sour soup here isn't like the typical takeout hot & sour soup, but it is well balanced and not goopy. Dumplings & wonton apps are both good (as expected), the cucumber side is refreshing (but beware of garlic breath), kakiage is super crispy and one of my faves, and the bitter melon is refreshing. Service is super efficient and friendly. Cash & card are both accepted. Overall, a no frills spot serving up some delicious noodle soups and quick eats.
Been here many times, finally got a chance to write a review. The place is small, but their food is always good. From Wonton noodles to rice dishes, everything is very tasty. The only issue I have is on their curry dishes. Everytime we asked for extra sauce, never give extra sauce. Overall their food is delicious. I love their hot chill oil.
Tired their curry brisket set meal & it was pretty good. The set meal was abundant - it had the curry brisket w/ rice, a small soup & 2 pork chive dumplings. The brisket was tender & the curry was not that spicy. There was also cabbage in the meal for some added fiber. I enjoyed my meal & was very stuffed. Staff was attentive & food came out fast. Tons of seating inside.
Come here for the wonton noodles and prices have doubled in the last 3 years. There's cheaper spots in the area but my friend likes their pork liver watercress congee (which came out lukewarm) usually won't leave a review but decided to splurge and try out some of the assorted braised beef innards . Only ate one of each to try and got the rest to go because I over ordered. Waitress asked if I wanted her to pack or if I should (I had asked for a box to takeout & I said she can pack) I was then asked if I wanted the vegetables in the dish (made up 60-70% of the dish) and I said yes, I love vegetables. Went to the restroom and saw the leftover plate had over half the vegetables still on it so I checked the takeout box (only 75% full) considering how I requested the dish to be packed for takeout I want the whole order, not half. I attached the takeout picture and you can see there's only vegetables covering half of the bottom. Even if it didn't fit in one container I believe she should've portioned it into 2, but there is obviously enough room. The dish was $22 and cost the price of 2 regular dishes but the portion amount was very disappointing and don't think I'll be back.
Great place for lunch, big portions and affordable. This place did not disappoint. I had their wonton noodle soup, the salt and pepper pork chop and their walnut shrimp dish. The wonton soup was not bad, but the broth needs some improvement. The walnut shrimp was good, perfect to share, but the salt and pepper pork chops were better. Perfectly cooked and highly recommend getting that with a bowl of rice. Will definitely come back!
The food here is good for the price, especially the set meals! The hot and sour soup that is complimentary to the meal is filled with lots of ingredients and is the perfect balance of hot and sour. The pickled radish/carrots and dumplings that came with the meal were also really good. For the main entree, I ordered the sweet and sour pork which came sooo fresh and still crispy when I first ate it. It comes with pieces of pineapple, which is how it's made in Hong Kong. The other dishes ordered at my table were all decent, but I wouldn't recommend the curry noodle soup. The soup is really watered down and the 'noodles' was more like spaghetti. Overall, the food is decent for the price, especially the set meals! I'll be back :)
This is one of my go to places on 86th! I always get the fish filet and I definitely recommend trying that! I think its made better than regular Chinese restaurants! Their wonton noodle soup and curry chicken over rice is also delicious! The staff at this place are very friendly. Since the place is pretty small, they are quick to attend to your needs. I usually come by for lunch or early dinner and have never waited to be seated.
Food is okay, the spicy chili oil is amazing! However, they should have a huge disclaimer or something to let customers who eat in know that it is MANDATORY to tip at least 18%+. They will chase you out if you give anything less than that. The servers only take your order and bring it, no recommendations made by them, very minimal interaction, no coming by to give you extra napkins. The service is so subpar that it is not worth it to pay about 20% of what you eat. This restaurant needs to keep in mind TIPS ARE OPTIONAL. They need to work on their service and that's why I believe they deserve a 2 star. The experience is ruined by them being so persistent about the tip that it makes you not wanna come back here again! I would recommend just ordering for takeout if you are interested in eating here!
I was surprised but happy when I saw this restaurant replacing the sushi restaurant. I first tried the food from here when my sister bought home some fried wonton. It was a travel away so it wasn't at its best but it was still good. After that try, I just had to try it fresh. I can't seem to find many places that make good fried wonton. The people here are nice and they work fast. I'm a fan of their noodles and wonton so of course I order the wonton noodle soup! Great choice. I am however, not a big fan of their curry. Maybe it's just me though, I am picky about my curry, very picky. I am looking forward to trying their spicy oil wonton. read more
Maybe its because they have pictures with like all of the food they serve that made me go back and forth on what to order. Everything looked so good. After flipping the pages multiple times, we decided to go with the: 1. shrimp and pork master wonton soup (wasn't a fan but was a friend's favorite), 2. salt pepper fried pork chop (good), 3. curry brisket with rice set meal (the brisket lacked curry taste, was not a bit spicy either but the meat was very tender). The meal came with hot and sour soup (pretty unique), two dumplings and pickled carrots and daikon, 4. beef tendon noodle soup (I liked the noodles, the beef tendons were not tough), 5. kakiage (felt like all I tasted was bonito flakes, but I love bonito flakes so I am not complaining, and this was my favorite dish), and 6. walnut shrimp (the batter used tasted like those fried milk/cream they serve at Chinese wedding parties). read more

I appreciate the wait staff's patience. I adore the clean and cozy environment. I am pleased with the semi-decent prices. I am salivating for their food! Bitter Melon-considering I am a person that do not like bitter melon and I was devouring this dish pretty much sums it up how tasty this item was! Jajang Tendon-yummy, flavorful, tender, all the characteristics one looks for when ordering beef tendon! Tripe-who can say no to tripe? Duck Wong delivers with some mouthwatering tripe! Curry Brisket with Noodles-okay, so this is where the star deduction comes from... I wasn't a fan of the semi-sweetness of curry in the bowl of ramen, because really, I did not expect sweet curry with my noodles and I really do not like sweet curry soup. Come hungry, leave with your pants unbuttoned! read more
Price is reasonable, food is fresh. We ordered chicken curry with fried rice, i like the fact that curry is not super heavy. Fried chicken wing is okay, crispy but a little bit over cooked. My wonton noodle is fresh, wonton filled with pork and shrimp, fresh taste, thats why i love it. Will come back read more
Didn't think I was going to like this place since they specialize in a specific subset of Cantonese cuisine that I am not too fond of but Duck Wong ended up being alright. It's a pretty small restaurant and the decor is very plain but the tables and plates were all very clean. The service was superb! They greeted us the moment we walked in and were very quick in taking our orders and getting us our food. When we asked for the check, they took the initiative to ask us how the food was and when we left, they even said bye. That in itself is commendable! They also serve this lemon infused tea which I found very soothing to drink, especially since I've been having an upset stomach the past few days. Wontons in spicy chili oil- I think this is one of the items that they are known for and I thought it was delicious! The wonton skin was not too thick and the filling had a huge piece of shrimp in it that I actually didn't mind eating since I normally don't eat shrimp lol. The sauce was great! It wasn't too spicy and it also had a nice sweetness to it as well, which I enjoyed. Definitely the best spicy chili oil wontons I've ever had! What is White Bear... Curry braised beef noodles- Ehh not the best I've had. They try to make it look like a fancy Japanese ramen dish but it sort of backfires because skimpy ingredients and copycat ramen= unhappy me lol. I think they should try to stick with the traditional Cantonese method of making it. The braised beef wasn't bad though but the other ingredients were kind of mediocre. Salt and pepper chicken wings- Very crispy and delicious!! Overall, I thought the food here was alright, nothing mind blowing. But that's probably because I'm not a huge fan of these types of food. If you like this kind of Cantonese food, definitely give this place a try since the prices are reasonable ($25 for 2 people). I commend them on having excellent servers though! read more
Based on the restaurant name, I expected a basic no frills old time chinese restaurant serving wonton noodles, congee, basic rice dishes. My family was pleasantly surprised by the relatively clean decor that's more reministic of a modern HK style cafe. Appreciated how the menus had large photos and clear price listings. We got wonton noodles ($5), Jaja meat sauce noodle soup ($6), pork chives gyoza ($5), spicy oil tripe ($7), and master brine duck ($10). Prices were affordable and food tasted okay. I'm not the type who particularly craves Cantonese HK style food, but the food was satisfying. Wontons were huge with a full size shrimp inside each. I find it cute how they throw in a slice of dried seaweed in their soup noodles like a pseudo-ramen bowl presentation. Ingredients and broth were however pretty salty and probably chock-full of MSG, leaving us so thirsty after the meal. Service was brusque but efficient. I'd advise you to check your take out containers carefully. We couldn't finish all the food so we asked to have the tripe and duck packed up, but later noticed the containers had leaked and seeped out of the bags. read more

New canton restaurant on the block. Serves mostly noodles, fried rice, wonton & dumplings. A lot of the dishes contain duck, brisket, tendon, and tripe. Ordered choy sum, hot & sour soup, bitter gourd salad, wonton in chili oil and fried rice with 3 different meat cuts. Their hot & sour soup was on point and differ from the ones you get at the fast food restaurant. Thumbs up for the wonton in chili oil and bitter gourd salad. I like the way they lightly braised the brisket, tendon and tripe because the flavor wasn't too salty but was still tasty. Chinese food usually makes me feel tired from being greasy but surprisingly, I don't feel sluggish after eating their food. This gives me a reason to come back and try the other stuff on their menu and not feel like i'm eating unhealthy. Pros: -Complimentary self serve genmai green tea in a bamboo handle teapot. -Interior was pretty clean which is a plus; seating was spaced enough to not feel too cramped. -Food and service was quick. -Dishes were seasoned well and not as greasy as I imagine Chinese food to be. -Just the right portion; decent enough to finish and not have left overs. Tips for improvement: -The male waiters could have been more friendly and enthusiastic. -Drink section on the menu could be more noticeable. -The red awning does not match the interior design and gives off a cheap quality restaurant vibe. read more

Sister recommended this place so we decided to stop by for lunch today since I was already in the area. The place was pretty empty so we were seated right away. It was nice that they provided pictures for every item on the menu because it really helped with deciding on what to get. We ordered the spicy oil beef tripe, master wonton toss in chili oil, salt pepper wings, and beef brisket noodle soup. The spicy oil beef tripe was very interesting. The tripe is very thinly sliced mixed with chili oil and sesame seeds. It was addicting until I ate too much of the chili seeds. I would suggest brushing it off if you don't want it too spicy. The master wonton toss in chili oil was very flavorful. I like how they did not skimp out on the meat and shrimp placed into each wonton. The salt pepper wings was my favorite appetizer. The outside was very crunchy, while the inside still maintained the flavors. I would often be disappointed with chicken wings when the outside is nice and flavorful but the inside would be bland. These wings did not disappoint. Would've ordered another one if we weren't so full. The beef brisket noodle soup hit the spot for me because I wanted something soupy. The beef was nice and tender. However, I'd recommend you to eat the noodles before you eat the spicy dishes because the soup tasted different after the chili oil. I did enjoy my meal, but I would probably only be coming back if I was around the area. read more

Whatever they serve, I'm never disappointed. Cantonese dishes with a Japanese twist. Very delicious and well prepared. Nice people and you'll never go wrong choosing them! read more
The place is a nice spot for some HK style dishes. Very affordable and convenient for takeout foods and pick ups. I was really impressed by their wontons! We ordered 3 dishes although I wouldn't say that the food was the best I've had, it definitely was worth the pricing! read more

They ripped us off so bad. Half the container was just empty space and this walnut shrimp was over $11! Nearly dropped the container because it weighed NOTHING. read more
Woohoo! A new Cantonese eatery in Bensonhurst. WONTON, NOODLES, DUMPLINGS! GET: 1) The wontons in chili oil were my favorite -- each wonton was STUFFED and SO tasty! 2) Noodles with tendons and addition of braised beef -- SO SO SOOOOO DELICIOUS. Their wonton noodles were pretty darn tasty! DON'T GET: 3) The chive and meat dumplings could've been better - they only fried it on one side and the other side was soggy, but it was still good. 4) I did not like the curry chicken with fried rice -- the curry sauce was good, but the chicken was breaded and fried... not the tender juicy chicken meat I was expecting. Definitely coming back for their dumplings and more wontons!!! read more
Duck Wong... Honestly, I have no idea why the place is named Duck Wong. Even their store name in Chinese has nothing to do with Duck. I guess they only named it "Duck Wong" it sounds SOMEWHAT similar to it in Chinese (no idea). ANYWAYS! On to the review: Absolutely love love love love LOVE this place. It's one of the best wonton places in Brooklyn. I think this is actually my favorite place for wontons! I used to love another place but they became very inconsistent and eventually lost their mojo. But this place is consistent and has never failed to make me feel happy and full. I've tried a various of their dishes. I personally don't like their ramen/Japanese infused dishes. I think it's okay. I really think they should just stick to their roots with doing wontons and cantonese food (that's just what I think anyway). I didn't really like their takoyaki--it's meh. BUT THEIR WONTONS! UGH. A must! I love their noodle's texture as well and the soup that is in the noodle is a perfect match. The wonton's skin is perfect--not too thick and not too thin. The meat is also very good and most of all, the portions inside are perfect. I also really like their wontons in chili oil (highly recommend). It's not super spicy, trust me. It really isn't. I'm one with a low tolerance for spice, so seriously, trust me. Get it! You absolutely would not regret it. Their beef stew noodles are also not bad. I just really like this place honestly and I think you just have to try it. It's $5 for a bowl of wonton noodles.. what do you have to lose? Okay fine. WITH the wonton in chili oil ($6), it'll be $11. But seriously, what do you have to lose? Go go go! Go try it now! :) read more
One of the better Chinese restaurants around town. It's nothing out of the ordinary but it definitely gets the job done when you're looking for Chinese food to satisfy your craving. Their appetizers were the best- get the wonton with chili sauce and their slice beef brisket with chili sauce. I do not think it's that's that spicy (low to medium spice level) so you're someone who cannot handle extremely spicy food like me, this is good. This is a spot I would come back for their apps. read more

Originally I was not planning to visit this place, but the one I wanted to go was closed. In the meantime I was so hungry, so I figured to go to a place nearby. This place turned out to be a gem!!! I like the wonton in chili oil. It had just enough of heat but not over powering. Recommend. read more

Food was decent. Service was excellent. The staff are extremely friendly and attentive. We ordered the sesame octopus, takoyaki, beef tendon curry noodle, beef brisket noodle soup, sweet and sour pork with rice and Jaja beef tendon with rice. The rice meals cane with two gyoza duumplings, pickled veggies and hot and sour soup. The octopus was delicious! The takoyaki was the best I've ever had. Crispy, flaky and it wasn't too sweet. The curry noodle and the beef brisket noodle were just ok. Sweet and sour pork was what you expect it to be. Good but not amazing. The jaja beef tendon with rice was the best dish. It had enough spice so that you can feel a little heat. And the beef tendon was so juicy and tender. I'm drooling just thinking about it lol. I would definitely go back there for that. The dumplings were good. The hot and sour soup was tasty but a little too thick. Next time I visit Brooklyn, I will definitely go back to try some of the other dishes and to get some more of that jaja beef tendon. read more

Duck Wong is now my preferred Brooklyn location for wonton soup. They have many varieties ranging from kale and sausage, pork and greens, cilantro pork, etc. I always stuck with the shrimp & pork wonton. The best part is, all their wontons are only $5 for a bowl. This place reminds me of an HK style restaurant where they offer different noodle soup and rice sets. I've also tried a few other things on their menu but didn't think it was worth the price. For example, I had their salt pepper wings, drunken chicken and vegetable side dish and I felt that I didn't not get my value for the price paid. I've also had their jaja meat sauce fried rice which you can go to nearby restaurants for cheaper and a larger rice dish. For these reasons, I gave them a 3 star since I will only be coming here for their wonton soup. read more

Great for a quick, casual, and inexpensive Cantonese meal. Wontons, duck, curry, and braised meats (beef brisket, tendon, tripe) seems to be the backbone of this restaurant. First and foremost, I loved how simple their menu was and how every item is depicted in photos. Such a smart way to increase their sales and it makes a diners life much easier. In no specific order, we had: SALT & PEPPER WINGS ($6) -- Delicious appetizer. Crispy yet tender wings with finely chopped peppers to add that extra kick. Yum. MASTER BRINE DUCK ($10) -- This reminded me of Teochew-style braised duck similar to Bo Ky's infamous country style duck but on a sweeter scale. The sauce is so flavorful and comforting along with a hot bowl of white rice. The chili-vinegar dipping sauce provided was also good. A must get especially if you love duck! CHILI OIL WONTONS ($6) -- The wonton wrappers were thin and delicate without being too doughy. Each wonton filling had the perfect portion of the bouncy & juicy pork along with their crisp shrimp. The "hot" chili oil lathered atop added body and really enhanced the flavor of the wontons. In fact, for some that can't take spice...it was not spicy at all! I wouldn't say it's one of the best wontons I've ever had, but it's the closest thing in Brooklyn. We all know the best wontons are always homemade. JAJA ABURA MEIN ($7) -- Essentially, ja-ja mein (meat-sauce noodle) thrown into a simple yet tasty broth. Be sure to request the broth on the side so that you're able to adjust the level of savoriness to your liking. The meat-sauce is layered over a bed of noodles and veggies (cabbage & scallion). The noodles were stringy and slurpable with a buoyant texture. Their rendition of the meat-sauce is sweeter and lighter in color than your ordinary ja-ja mein. Perhaps it's the bean paste they use. If meaty and rich is of your essence, then go for it. The service was excellent. Our waiter (fluent in Chinese, English, & Spanish) was extremely attentive and friendly. I'll be back for you soon Duck Wong! read more
Frankly, I am confused to whether this restaurant is Cantonese, Japanese or Northern Chinese food. There are dishes such as curry, dotanburi cabbage yaki, congee, braised duck, etc. creating a huge clash of cuisines. What bothered me the most about this restaurant wasn't the food (which was solid), but the service The waiters and waitresses here are withdrawn, almost antisocial and robotic. When I asked to move to a table by the corner, the waiter looked at me blankly, mumbled something in Chinese and walked away. After moving myself along with my menu and water to a different table, a female waitress took my order without writing anything down, without repeating the dishes and simply walked away without uttering a single word. At the end of my meal, I had 3 dishes which needed packing. the waitress packed 2 dishes, forgetting one. When I asked her again to pack the dish, she looked at the plate and walked away. After asking her a third time to pack the dish, she gave me a scowl and messily packed my dish. The entire bag was drenched with sauce on the outside. The whole dining experience just made me feel very uneasy. Although the food wasn't bad, I will not be returning in the future. read more

So, if you live in far flung area of far flung Brooklyn, you should visit this place! They say the place is tiny, but if I remember correctly, it can comfortably seat 50 people. What can I say? Vast menu, big portions and affordable price (less than $10 each item on menu!) Delicious cheap food is a winner in my book! Service is prompt and basic. Drunken chicken - steamed chicken with alcohol, a bit too much alcohol for me, the strong taste slaps you in the face. Served cold. Kakiage (shrimp and veg) - Japanese style pancakes with shrimp and veg, crispy on the bottom with mayonnaise and teriyaki sauce. Topped with bonito (fish) flakes. Delish! Beef brisket noodles soup - Savory brisket spiced with star anise is the perfect tender and slightly sweet companion of noodles. Noodles for Chinese style, ramen and other dish (sorry i forgot) is all different! read more
Came here for lunch, place is fairly small. Menu is vast. Read some Yelp reviews before ordering. The JaJa Beef tendon noodle was pretty good. But the Curry Fish balls, and Congee fell short of a good meal. Will come back next time for their Jaja noodles/ fried rice only. read more
