Full Key Restaurant

Reviewed By Slingerrob

Let’s start with the “negatives”. The place looks shopworn. Booths have patched up seats, it’s small and cramped and looks like a caricature of the a 1960s Chinese restaurant. It serves no alcohol and it doesn’t look that clean........ who cares. Food is outstanding. That is their focus, the food. And not just Americanized Chinese. Their wonton noodle soups are still the best around. Their spicy salt and pepper dishes are outstanding. Best snow pea leaves in the area. Their sizzling black pepper steak hot pot melts in your mouth. And the people who work their are very nice. They re not rude as some have said. So it’s not perhaps your romantic date night place, but it is a great place for real Chinese food.

Wong Gee Asian Restaurant

Reviewed By Marc F

A few months ago, I wrote a rather positive evaluation of Wang Gee Asian Restaurant. Subsequent visits to the restaurant confirmed that I was right. Today, we brought many guests from Texas to have Dim Sum and we were rather disappointed that this was not a good day at all. With few exceptions, many of the Dim Sums did not meet our expectations at all. Especially the Steamed Dumplings (Har Gow & Shiu Mai), various (beef, shrimp, and beef flavored) Rice Noodle Crepes, even our favorite 炸两 (Fried Bread Stick Rice Noodle Crepe). True, one cannot expect any eatery to perform at the same high level at every meal. Even so, this was very puzzling because the quality of today’s food was quite a bit below that of the usual fare at Wang Gee. The only culprit we can point our fingers at was the change from Standard Time to Daylight Savings today, March 11. Normally, the restaurant is crowded at the time we arrived (11:30 am) but there were few people inside today. Apparently the dim sums have been sitting inside the steaming carts awaiting customers, who came late as they were still on Standard Time. We hope to find the usual good, delicious dim sums the next time we visit Wang Gee.

Moby Dick Sushi

Reviewed By Aquazoo

I've been to Moby Dick many times, most recently this past Monday. My friends got bento boxes and I had the tempura udon, with a few sushi rolls. I was going for comfort food that particular day, and Moby Dick did not disappoint. The udon noodles were plump and tasty, and the broth was perfect. The tempura was perfect. For the sushi, we shared unagi, California roll, avocado, and tofu rolls.One of my favorites (from a previous visit) is the Crazy Boy roll, which is battered and fried like tempura. Unexpected, tasty and filling. The restaurant is small but neat, and the service prompt and pleasant. They were always sure to keep our cups full of tea.Definitely recommended!

Dear Customers, My name is Andrew Quach, and I am one of the managers at Gourmet Inspirations. I lived in the Wheaton area for 18 years and have eaten at Good Fortune many times. My partners and I are very aware of the history and connection that the rest

Based on the good reviews, I tried this restaurant. However, I was very disappointed. I personally cannot eat onions and garlic; it makes me very sick. I know Buddhist Vegetarians also do not eat onions and garlic so you would think that an Asian restaurant should have a good system in place for making vegetarian dishes without onions and garlic. This is not the case for this restaurant. Upon explaining my dietary restrictions, the waitress recommended the "Assorted Vegetables with Tofu, Lo Han Style" as the safest bet. I stressed I could not have any onions, green onions, scallions, or garlic, ... even in the sauce. She said she would tell the chef. When the dish came, I could smell a very pungent smell of either seafood or onions/garlic. I still tried to labor on and eat the dish, avoiding the sauce because it made me want to throw up. I threw up a couple times and finally decided to bring the rest home so I could use lots of water to cook out the sauce and not waste the food. When I asked the waitress if she told the chef not to use onions and garlic she said yes. She said it could be the sauce, they use a premade sauce. She said I did not tell her not to use the sauce, but I did. Though she expressed sympathy, this is not the way to handle a dietary restriction. I had GI problems for thr next 2 days and had to throw out the rest of the food even after wasting time trying to cook out the sauce because the food was too repulsive for me. This is not the place for people with dietary restrictions.

Thai Taste by Kob

Reviewed By pnickel613

It took me some time to discover this place, as Wheaton has several other excellent choices for Asian cuisine. However, despite appearances, this place's food is quite good and a lot cheaper then its competition. I recommend the drunken noodles with pork and mango sticky rice! Don't let the fact that is behind a grocery store fool you, this place is certainly worth your time and money.

New Kam Fong

This restaurant was formerly in China town in d.c. and relocated to this site about two years ago.

Reviewed By STEELEHARDY

New Kam Fong is a great place to eat authentic Chinese food. They were in Chinatown, DC for many years and moved to Wheaton a few years ago. Their dishes are all great. They have fantastic lunch specials and a wide selection of traditional Chinese dishes. By the counter they have a showcase of different meats such as duck, pork to choose from. They also have a huge fresh fish tank full of fresh fish and live Maine lobsters. They serve all types of beer and wine. The service is great and the location is very accessible. Give them a try, you'll be glad you did! They are open for lunch and dinner and offer late dining.
