This small, family run business was a wonderful surprise. The atmosphere was dated and spartan but the host was welcoming and warm. Service was quick and friendly but it was the food that got our attention. Everything was fresh and piping hot, and cooked to perfection. Honestly the best ginger beef I've ever eaten. If you ever feel like you want to support an actual family rather than a corporation, I highly recommend John Wong's.

Normally, I love and rave about this place when I'm here. NYE, all I wanted was 2.combo dinners for 1, but they were not offering this on this night. I called 1 other place, same thing, no combos. I had to drive across to Ogden SE, to Ken's Chinese restaurant,which is just as good and compares the same in quantity in food. I got my 2 combo dinners for 1 and cost me $22.00 with a discount as the owner was delighted. I drove from Woodlands to them just to get what I wanted...
