I was very pleasantly surprised by this place, was in the area and decided to try it out. The atmosphere is homie and kinda feels like a small town ma and pap place. For what they have there is a good selection of food and very friendly and nice people. If you have the time and want some good food this is a great place to visit. read more

Buffet is ice cold and very old tasting. Take away is OK but hit or miss on quality. After it reopened from a fire it was fire! Now its ok at best. read more

The food is always greasy with butter. Every time I have eaten there which is not to often it felt like a lead weight in my stomach. Then one time I found a rock in my take out. Haven't eaten there in years. There is no good Chinese restaurant anywhere in the Slatebelt area. We eat Chinese outside the area. read more

No clue what the poor reviews are for. The nearest other Chinese place serves yellow fried rice. This fried rice is real and actually has pork in it. The buffet at $9.99 is very large with three full rows of offerings. On it you will find wide fried noodles, chicken n broccoli, boneless ribs, fried dumplings, fresh peel n eat shrimp, cut fruit including mango and pineapple and several other choices. Sure, some of the breaded chicken dishes lend itself to ask what is it but no worse than the other places in town. Also has nice dining room for eat in. Best eat in Chinese experience in the Slate Belt by far. Closed Tuesday. read more

Wah Shing Restaurant - Fried rice - Chinese Near Me - Bangor, Pennsylvania

See all

I driven past Wah Shing many times. I decided to stop in and give it a shot for a lunch snack. I ordered the fried dumplings, that's my test dish to see if they make good Chinese entrees. If you can't make dumplings, you can't make good kung pao chicken. They also had a buffet open at the same time. The dumplings tasted like they had been sitting out at the buffet or they were pre-cooked and reheated as opposed to being freshly fried. The dumplings were thin, which I prefer and they were a nice size. I didn't care for the taste. Staff was pleasant and service was fast. Maybe I'll try the buffet next time. read more

Not only is this place over priced but the food is garbage. Chicken wings- extremely salty. Pork fried rice- super oily. Ordered two eggs rolls- they were swimming in oil in the bag they sent them in. Ew all around. 0/10 read more

Only recommend to come early to buffet right when they open & food is fresh around 12:00-12:30 or if they are packed because then food is fresh .. quick little place to eat in town. read more

Good Chinese food, great price. Hidden secret in Windgap, this place has the best peanut chicken in the area and delicious warm custard pies you can't stop eating. They have chicken in every variety you can imagine and lots of fresh fruits and ice cream for dessert. Been going here for years and never disappointed. read more

This place has horrible food. Total crap! Zero stars is too kind. Picked up food snd it literally was so bad my dog walked away from it. Maybe it was one of his species? read more

Years ago I never liked the food or the employees at this place. During Covid-19 shutdowns they were the only Chinese restaurants in the area open so we gave it a try. The food was not as bad as it was in years past and the woman at the counter was very nice. As far as the food, I think they may use too much oil in the foods, especially the Shrimp Fried Rice. Sesame Chicken was a bit dry and chewy for my liking. However, the Sweet & Sour Chicken was very good as was the Spring Roll.Their fried noodles that are served with the egg drop soup were fresh and crispy. I guess when you are in the mood for this type of a meal and there were no other choices locally it was OK. read more

This place never disappoints! Their buffet is pretty good for the size. The house special chicken is by far my favorite thing! I think they have the best chinese food in the slate belt, and the only ones that deliver. Plus, they are always fast with fresh food. read more

Rude cook and the other employees defend his rudeness. Food is cheap and one gets what one pays for. Concerning the food: not worth writing home about. read more

We go at least once a week. Inexpensive Chinese buffet. Food is good when fresh and if something looks old just ask, they'll make more. Very nice staff and I found it to be clean. Definitely worth a shot if you're on the fence, especially since the other reviews are old! read more

Decently good. I love in a town where barely nothing delivers, so when I have a craving for Chinese, but don't want to drive, this place is who i call. The fried rice is wierd, not bad, but wierd. If you don't like vegetables, let them know, because your plate is a 1/4 vegetables. read more

Wah Shing Restaurant - General tso's chicken - Chinese Near Me - Bangor, Pennsylvania

This place went to hell in the 11 months since I was last here. Food was total crap (e.g. cold lo mein, undercooked wonton, burned egg rolls.) Front of house staff was very inattentive and quite rude. Never going here again. Not worth getting sick over. read more

Weird Chinese Looking Chinese run, odd gem in the middle of no where. I really wanted to post a photo on here, but there's no link to do that...bummer it REALLY does look like it should be in China....dirt parking lot, chinese architecture, chinese run, chinese staff, chinese yelling from kitchen and into out of kitchen....yup.. Just like china. :-) It's tasty and very cheap for a quick lunch. read more

This place has changed a lot the buffet (especially for lunch) is fresh, delicious and cheap! I eat here at least once a week! read more

Wah Shing is the first American Chinese restaurant I can remember going to as a kid. Everything from the decor to the sweet/sour/spicy sensibilities of the cuisine combine for one hell of an authentic experience. That said, it is not particularly cleanly. No big deal. If you are getting American Chinese food then that should be the least of your worries. read more

Nice place overall has a good atmosphere. I have been going here since I was young. The place has been around for so long It's almost like a Bangor chinese food landmark. Fair prices and great service. read more

Would give more stars if they kept the food in the buffet fresh. We eat here all the time (for lack of other yummy options) I just wish the food wasn't crusty and dried out from sitting in the buffet for god knows how long. The food tastes good when it is fresh! read more

Ordered food for the first time, took one bite and threw the rest out. It was cold and tasted old.

Don't waste your money. I placed an order for delivery and even though delivery was fast, and the driver courteous, that's where the positives end. The egg rolls, spring rolls and crab rangoon were incredibly greasy. Steamed dumplings were little more than large clumps of thick dough with about 1/2 teaspoon of meat filling. The shrimp lo mein, chicken curry, and Dragon and Phoenix dinner were mediocre at best. I won't be ordering again.It's a shame Bangor doesn't have a decent Chinese restaurant. read more

Traveling through stopped here for lunch. The restaurant is clean, the buffet had a good selection. Food was above average for buffet. Not sure about the previous reviews, but some are 3 years old, maybe the restaurant has been redone. Nothing on the buffet appeared to be a pet. I'd stop here again. read more

My two daughters who are 17 and 19, ate there last Friday night, the second night they were open after re-opening. It was crowded as it was $5 for the buffett. The selection was huge, the food was hot and fresh. Service is what can be expected at this type of place, effecient. The new decore was impressive, pretty and clean looking. When we left the line had grown to several feet outside the building. It was an exciting event, I'll do it again for sure. Knife Kim read more

Horrible service. The guy is nice, but who woman who served us was rude and inattentive. When I called she was crazy rude as well.

Called in and ordered sesame chicken. Didn't realize it would be a very spicy red sauce. When I explained I wasn't happy with the meal they offered to exchange it. Again asked for sesame chicken, but this time plain. No spice. Which they said they could do... They then gave me the exact same meal, with the exact same sauce although this time it was cold. Terrible service. read more

I stop here occasionally because it's a very cheap buffet. The price came in around $5.75 for lunch, which is a really good deal. The food is average for Chinese, nothing that stands out or you would write home about. Staff is generally friendly, the younger boy that works there is always nice. Food is sometimes not as warm as some would like, but personally I'm not picky about that. The price is good and it fills you up. The reason I refrained from giving 4 stars is because they tack on a $2.00 charge for using you credit card online or over the phone and DO NOT TELL YOU. So be aware of that. read more

Buffet food cold even when it just started. Waitress has bad attitude didn't even ask if everything is ok. Obvious these people don't care if your satisfied, don't waste your time or money here. read more

Just left wah shing chinese restaurant, the food was terrible. Egg rolls had a metallic taste. The pork was so dry that I could barely chew it. General tso chicken was just plain bad. My 11yr old son didn't eat anything because it was so bad but they still charged for him. The reason, " it doesn't matter how much you eat". I'll never go back and suggest that neither should you. I would give less than one star if possible. read more

Food is relatively good. B E C A R E F U L !!! if you order on line for delivery, they will charge you $2.00 to use your credit card and not disclose this at time of order.... read more

I have to give this 5 stars for the reasons I will elaborate on below. Its a Sunday night as I sit in my Pen Argyl home, just getting in from SI, enjoying some libations before the work week begins. I'm hungry and can not stand "pizzeria" food, so that is not an option. I decided on Chinese. However after having a few drinks, driving is not an option and only one Chinese restaurant in the area delivers, Wah Shing. What the heck, i'll give it a shot. Super easy online ordering. Hot and sour soup, beef garlic lo mein, an egg roll, crab rangoon, and pan fried dumplings. Order placed at 8:09pm and at my door at 8:41. One half hour exactly. We indulge. And were quite delighted. Being a foody and extremely critical eater, this satisfied and fulfilled my weary expectations. Was this the best Chinese ever on the face of the earth? No. Was it the worst? Far from it. I thoroughly enjoyed. A hidden gem that delivers tasty food at a great price in a reasonable time at a time when driving is not an option. Which leaves me to wonder why these other sub par reviews don't give this place it's credit earned? What other food option will deliver you something tasty at 9:30pm in the good old slate belt? Please give this place a chance; you will not be disappointed. A justified 5 star in my eyes! Over and out! read more

This restaurant used to be great. I don't know if they had a bad day today, but the chicken was so tough and stringy on this takeout order that we had to throw it out. Also they charged an extra $2.50 on the charge card that hadn't been disclosed on the register receipt. The rice portion was about 1/3 of the size that they used to have and seemed overcooked. No longer impressed with this place needless to say and had been coming here for years. Sad. read more
