Mr. Tong

The food Gods have blessed this place. You can see the time and attention they put into the preparation of the food. I believe I have found another hidden gem to add to my takeout menu rack. It's a small store but it provides a nice view with big windows. Amazingly clean. I'm returning to work through the menu.

Ordered fried Jumbo shrimp & got it fried in dumpling batter...idk who has ever fried food with dumpling batter but i highly doubt that their fried chicken is in dumpling batter. Called to ask for regular fried Jumbo shrimp & was dealt with rudely. Don’t know about any of their other food but make sure they understand what kind of food you’re requesting.

I have been a customer since 2007 I ordered chicken and broccoli last night and the chicken is different. the texture is soft and it feels like processed chicken with skin in t. scaled today to ask if they changed their chicken they said it is white meat and they use the same supplier. They also said they have not gotten any complaints. I will only order vegetables in the future or meat with bones.

I am in complete awe of how drastically the prices have increased!!! Insane…. the food doesn’t have the same fresh taste any longer. This is coming from someone that have tried Mr. Tong’s for years. I’m just honestly in disbelief of the prices. A regular egg roll or shrimp roll that all other establishments sell for $1.35 - $1.50, here they now sell it for $3!!! I hope they remain in the community and still attract the same customers, otherwise, overtime I can see this establishment closing down.

Basic Chinese-American takeout but the food taste fresher with better ingredients than you would find at the typical takeout spot. I had the beef and broccoli combination. The beef did not have the common chewy and gristly texture that is typical of most places. It tasted good and I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the meat. Rice was cooked perfect with no stale or burnt pieces. In addition, the pork fried rice had nice chunky pieces of pork. Egg roll that came with the combination was not overly greasy and didn't have that weird oil taste. Crispy outside and great texture inside. Seems like they're better about changing their oil. For those who want to dine in, the location is clean and spacious, you'll find a visble A rating outside the window. No sticky tables, chairs or strong unpleasant smells. Service is really fast, as others have mentioned. That being said, I should state that I placed my order at the location so I didn't experience any of the service issues others have mentioned through phone ordering. Overall, this is a much better Chinese takeout spot in comparison to what you'd find around the Kensington area.
