This was our first visit to Sung Wo, as we're never impressed by the local selection of Chinese…read morefood.. all the same low quality meat, questionable chicken thata so dry and chewy, but we never realized Sung Wo was close by and highly recommended. I have to say, overall, we were satisfied and happy we gave it a go. The staff was attentive and patient when we called in, repeated the order and gave us a price and time frame for pick up. 20 minutes on the dot I arrived to a fairly busy, but clean and neat small storefront. Sauces on a table for convenience, and a couple of cases of drinks as well. The kitchen appeared busy and transparent; you could see them cooking and packing everything fresh right in front, behind the counter (a reassuring thing!). Staff seemed friendly and honorable, reminding me to grab a free 2 L soda for my purchase. Waited 5 minutes and walked out with a piping hot and heavy bag, very well packed (bonus points for neat and no spillage). Also, definitely loved that we could order white meat, no MSG, and I guarantee you that no other Chinese food place comes close to being real like Sung Wo. We 100% could taste and tell the difference! Absolutely refreshing to eat actual white meat chicken and have it look and taste great. You can totally taste the quality and difference between the other spots. The chicken was crispy, delicious, and didnt leave us feeling gross and regretful like other local spots. I highly recommend Sung Wo, and gladly accept them as our new Chinese food spot!
What we got:
Orange chicken with white rice
Orange chicken spicy with brown rice
Eggplant in garlic sauce
Chicken in lobster sauce
Crab Ragoons
Everything was great, orange chicken was crispy, clean sauce that wasn't caked on but enough to reheat. Plenty of bright broccoli, and the chicken wasn't dry, chewy or overcooked- a huge plus! Seriously, I hate ordering and expecting good food and getting stringy, questionable meat that is random long cuts of whatever. These were nice, consistent chunks of crispy outside, obvious white meat chicken! Crab ragoons were delicious and full of flavor, chicken lobster sauce was great with plenty of substance. The only thing that wasn't impressive was the eggplant in garlic sauce. Surprisingly, it came fried and too thick compared to the soft, grilled eggplant we would usually get. Definitely would try with asking for grilled. Another thingl, they are very accommodating, will cook to your liking, and really seem to have made a great name for themselves. I honestly can say that we were super happy and relieved to have found a great Chinese place less than 5 minutes away. We definitely will order again!
All in all, great first visit and best Chinese in the area by FAR!
