Master Critic Review

Hing Wang Restaurant 7.6
Uptown
A true neighborhood takeout counter where fried-rice plates and quick classics are the repeat-order comfort lane. Don’t try to sample the whole menu—pick one fried rice, add one simple side, and treat it as a reliable weeknight fuel stop.
Must-Try Dishes: BBQ pork fried rice, Combination fried rice, Chicken wings

Dietary Options
Vegetarian options: Yes — vegetable fried rice and simple vegetable stir-fries are available.
Vegan options: Limited — possible with vegetable-only dishes; confirm no egg or oyster sauce when ordering.

Good to Know
Is this good for a first date? No — this is a practical takeout stop, not a sit-down or ambiance-driven experience.
Can I get a table without a reservation? There’s little to no dine-in focus; plan on takeout rather than seating.
Is it kid-friendly? Yes — familiar fried rice and chicken options work well for kids, but seating is minimal.
Best For
Better for: Reliable fried rice, fast turnaround, and strong value compared to pricier Uptown Chinese spots.
Skip if: You want dine-in service, broader regional specialties, or more refined execution.
