Came at 5:45pm on a Wednesday and the line only took 15 mins. I came with my gf so we only ordered 1 large with 3 meats (chicken, duck, and roast BBQ pork) to share because we wanted to try more Chinatown eats! This was so worth $8.50 considering how much food and meat was given! If you wanted a smaller container with 1 meat, it would be $5.50 , which is still a great deal! The shop is fairly small and only 3 people should be standing inside to order. The park across the street is also a great place to eat it at! Definitely would go back and because it's a staple for Chinatown! Delicious food! I would go for the roast pork, chicken then duck if I were to rank the meats and they give veggies as well! Well balanced!

Food: 4 Decor: 2 Service: 3 Came here for lunch after seeing all the solid Yelp reviews. Overall, would definitely recommend. One of my favorite NYC spots. 1 meat - small roasted pork, 5.5 ~4/5. Delicious and incredible value for what you pay for. Even a small was enough to fill me up Wait was about 20 minutes so be prepared. There's no seating inside, so I ended up walking across the street and eating at the park bench. Cash only.

It's a bit of a line / wait, so I would aim for off-peak hours, but the pay-off it pretty great. We had the Duck / Pork / Chicken Combo. The star of the show is undoubtably the Duck (so juicy and flavorful), and the Pork is pretty good if you eat it fresh. The chicken shies in comparison to the Duck / Pork... so I may just opt for more Duck next time. The sleeper item is definitely the cabbage that comes with the combo... great flavor. P.S. Make sure to bring cash.

Good food, the line sometimes gets long even outside of lunch or dinner rush. We've waited at the end of the block and it took us about 45 minutes to get to the front of the line. The staff isn't exactly good with speaking English, so you kind of just have to know what you want when you approach them. I think of all the meats, the bbq pork with the crispy skin was probably the best, the the cha suu. The cirpsy skin was so crunchy, and you just have to eat it immediate on the spot. If you wait an hour or so, it'll get soggy already. Cash only as well

Service was fast once we reached the front of the line. The food was amazing for the price, and the serving size was perfect. The ambiance was nice as well as we were close to a park where you could sit as well.

There was a line but it moved somewhat quickly. There was a possible crazy man who I think was posing as the security guy? I say this only because he ran away into the street randomly and never came back, so that was odd. But besides that, $5 for a good portion of food. That's for the small size. Once you're in there, they'll get your food together pretty quickly. Cash only. Deffs recommend.

Wah Fung No. 1 is the probably the most well-known spot in Chinatown and you can easily tell where it is when you're near. There is always a long line that's easily over 30 minutes wait if you go at a popular time. For $5.50, you can get a solid roast pork meal and fill yourself up. I think it's a little overhyped, I do agree you can't beat that deal for $5 to get a small roast pork meal. That's such a good deal especially in NYC. But for the wait it took to get one, it was not that worth. I got the $8 large and it was tasty, but there was definitely a good amount of rice. And this is also because I'm comparing getting char siu by the pound and making my own rice. Of course that skips the convenience factor. I'd stop by again if I wanted a quick meal and there was no line. I wouldn't wait 30+ min again, maybe I would with friends? Only if they REALLY wanted it.

Juicy, savory, and sweet meats on a bed of oily rice and cabbage for a super low price, the combos at Wah Fong are a must try when visiting Chinatown. Though the line can be long (even at random times on weekdays), I honestly think the food is worth it because they're constantly churning out fresh meat because of the long lines. They only do a few kinds of meats, but boy oh boy, do they do it perfectly. If I lived closer, I would come here constantly!
