Don’t miss the wonderful food and service in Manhattan’s Chinatown at the Wonton Noodle Garden. I haven’t since 1978!
Don’t miss these ‘cure all’ soups at the Wonton Noodle Garden in Chinatown
*I wanted to note that the prices have changed since the Pandemic started so please check their website for increases.
Just to let readers know this is the original Wonton Noodle Garden that used to be on Mott Street. It moved to this location when the landlord jacked the rents up so high that the restaurant was forced to me to its new location in 2023. The original location now has a restaurant that has the same name as the old one.
The food here is consistently excellent and here are some of my favorite dishes from the restaurant:
The General Tso’s Chicken here is excellent
They do not skimp on ingredients on the House Fried Rice and Lo Mein
The House Lo Mein is just as delicious
Don’t miss the Steamed Pork and Chive Dumplings. They are so tender.
Note: Wonton Noodle Garden moved from its long-time location at 56 Mott Street to 23 Pell Street in June 2023 after they lost their lease. They had been in that location for almost 50 years.
I have been coming to the Wonton Noodle Garden at 56 Mott Street since it opened in 1978. I remember coming here when I was in high school several times with my parents. The food all these years have been consistent and in all the times I have eaten here, the meals have been terrific.
The one thing I have always liked about the restaurant is that you can see the soups and dumplings being made from the front window. The gentleman who makes the soups has been there for years and I have watched him over all this time day after day when I visited Chinatown make soups with noodles and dumplings for customers all over the world.
