Wongkok Cafe Wàng Jiǎo Cān Tīng

4.5/5 Taste<br/ 3/5 Display <br/ 4.5/5 Quantity <br/ 4/5 Customer Service<br/ <br/ Dodgy looking yet fantastic Chinese Restaurant in Auckland CBD near Sky Tower.<br/ <br/ As they say you shouldnt judge based on looks. <br/ I have to say this place does not look pleasing from outside but I personally think that this place has one of the best “Mapo Tofu” dish in Auckland. <br/ Its kinda in a big street right across the road from<br/ Sky Tower so I guess I cant use the metaphor “hidden gem”<br/

Craving for duck and yes tried this restaurant cos everytime i passed by they always full of people so it must be nice and of course it’s not disappointed.. got my half roast duck after wait for 10mins and it’s really yummy, i will come again to try their other menus.. and also they open till midnite which is the best advantages

Visited recently for lunch with a friend, they make an amazing Mapo Tofu, with very generous portioning. Also with 'complimentary ' tea and soup, however the latter is quite salty. The 'shabby ' tables referenced by another reviewer is what makes these types of restaurants feel authentic you 'd find plenty of these scattered throughout Hong Kong, so no harm in having one here in Auckland. Prices are low, and they 're always busy.

Ok I'm going to be honest. This places isn't the cleanest, it's no sky city but the food here is authentic and delicious af. Like I could not recommend this place enough. The food is so good and value for money. It's open late so when you don't want Mcd's or Denny's after a hard night and just want some beautiful fried rice, you need to immediately come here. Even if you're not out late, go there for some good Chinese food!

I ordered the chicken noodle soup for $10. Plus the 0.50cents for chillie oil. Surprisingly you get a quarter of a chicken served with egg noodles and asian spinach. Food was good for $10 served in Auckland city.
