Wing Wah Restaurant

I am Kellie and i have been eating at this location since i was in grade school.  MY Family Loves This Resturant!!  I miss my Beef Pepper Steak and Tomato with beef fried rice and orange chicken and ofcourse my cup of tea:-)  I moved away recently and no other chinese food can get close to this delicious delicatessen!!
I am HOOKED on WING WAH and i am travling back home in March just to sit in and eat and enjoy the friendly staff whom remembers those good customers on a first name basis.  I LOVE WING WAH'S IN GARY INDIANA.   (  FROZEN ORDERS ACCEPTED???)

I'm kinda thinking that Lea needs a laxative or some relaxation techniques.

Wing Wah will never win any awards but it offers up really good and dependable Cantonese "specialties" for a good price.

Not sure what Lea is talking about regarding portions, but I usually bitch b/c the cartons are so over filled that they ooze onto my counter.

We're in Miller Beach for Christ's sake so Charlie Trotter is not likely planning on swinging past and serving up dinner.

By all means go to Wing Wah for as lazy Friday or Saturday dinner.

Wing Wah is a good, dependable, reasonably priced place close to home.

Check em out.

For over a year, after each great dining experience found by the help of Yelp, I have been toying with the idea of writing a wonderful review.
With that being said ~ it saddens me to the core that I will break my virginity like this...

After moving from my beloved city of Chicago expensiveness to the humble Gary area, I constantly seek delicious and nutritious cuisine. Needless to say I find myself back in the city.

And that brings me to my first review... at 8pm ~ hungry and lazy the family opted for Chinese food. Oh what to do... we know consult my trusted yelp app!
I tend to set my filter for highest rating ~ and up pops Wing Wah and only 6 miles away. Great!

No NOT great!
I'm not one to complain about service cause my main objective is to fill my belly. But this was insane!

My husband ordered ~ he's easy ~ my cousin and his wife ordered and then I checked out menu and opted for the combination special of kung pow shrimp ~ but I despise those boo-boo shrimp so as with all Chinese places I get veggie rice. Don't you know those bums told me it was a $2 up charge ~ I say cool just plain rice please ~ still $2 up charge. WTF!

Okay whatever ~ but don't eat beef or pork so may I just get a veggie eggroll? ~ no we only have chicken, beef, and shrimp eggroll. WTF!

This should have been my que to hit the door and reconsult the great Yelp. I didn't want to be the cause of every ones hunger pains so we stayed and proceeded to get nickled and dimed to death.

Extra sweet and sour sauce ~ that'll be 25cents for a tumble
May I have some hot mustard ~ that'll be 50 cents a thimble
May I have a few more packets of soy sauce ~ they will be 10 cents each.
May I have some hot pepper flake chili sauce ~ cost you 50 cents a thimble
Fine F it. Pay this awful rude man and let's get home and eat to deliciousness.

Got home ~ opened the containers and was like ~ Are you kidding me!
The portions were the tiniest, stingiest, most meager portions I have ever witnessed from any Asian spot in my entire life!
That sauce was runny and watery. And by some chance I would've wanted the chili sauce with the rooster and green top (you know what I'm talkin 'bout) I would have pulled mine out the fridge.

These people are getting over cause there isn't nothing else in the area.
The food was decent ~ I've had better from black cooks using recipes off WTTW.
The value absolutely sucks!
The people are rude and nickle and dime the hell out of you
I hate I lost my Yelp review virginity like this. The shame.
Well my stomach is asking for some more substance so I guess I will whip up a pb&j.
Oh the shame!
