Wonton Guy

It’s like we stepped into a Hong Kong noodle shop as soon as we walked in. The decor, the music and the food were 10/10. The shrimp wontons are huge and egg noodles are super bouncy. Two side dishes we ordered were the tomato chili pork over a bed of lettuce and the curry fish balls. Both were very good and worth ordering if you’re hungry. Food tasted very authentic. Service was very friendly and food came out very quick. We will definitely be back!!

A lot of people eating here so waited for around 20ish minutes. Service is friendly and quick. I like that you can kinda add toppings on your noodle, which add a variety. I loved the wonton and fish meat toppings, while my friend order braised beef. Good place for your Cantonese styled noodle soup.

We have been here several times. Place is usually packed. Fast service. Ordered the 2 and 3 topping noodle soup. The wontons are huge and portions are just right. The soup base is good and there are condiments to suit to your taste including hot oil. Overall, definitely recommend coming here !

Hong Kong is loaded with street vendors and small restaurants. Its cuisine is a unique and diverse culinary tradition that reflects the city's history and culture. It is a fusion of Chinese, British, and Southeast Asian flavors and techniques, with a focus on fresh seafood, noodles, and rice. Open since Thanksgiving 2022, this establishment is about a block from a plaza with nearly a dozen Asian restaurants and the H Mart Korean supermarket in Edison. Located on Route 27 off of Plainfield Avenue, Wonton Guy is not Chinese-American food but authentic Hong Kong fast food, where I decided to have lunch today. Upon entering, I was greeted by the staff and got a small table right away inside a cozy, sparse dining area about 10 tables, an open kitchen, and one full wall showing the bright lights of Kowloon in Hong Kong at night. The menu specializes in wontons, of course, in a soup, or just noodles with soup on the side (lo mein). I went for the Two Toppings Lo Mein with shrimp wonton 雲吞 and beef brisket 牛腩, which were the most popular. Complimentary hot tea started the meal. The meal came out quick and was served hot. It focused on its bold and complex flavors. The broth was made overnight, and the huge wontons stuffed with shrimp and pork, making them hearty and satisfying, were freshly made every morning and tasted authentic. The brisket was tender. The price was very reasonable. The staff was friendly and helpful with what to recommend; my server was Ray. It was a great deal, and I recommend this place.

Every time I pass by New Jersey I must go to wonton guy. Their food is outstanding!!! Wonton is very big and tasty. The shrimp are chewy （彈牙）. Noodles are crispy （爽）. I finished whole bowl of soup without feeling thirsty afterwards. I would say is even better than Hong Kong. It is your loss if you haven’t try it.

Very friendly and approachable staff that makes you feel right at home! The curry fish balls brought me right back to Hong Kong and I'm addicted 🤤🤤🤤 the shrimp wonton noodle soup was FANTASTIC. It was gone before I knew it. I will be back!!

The wonton noodles were really tasty, and the shrimp portions were generous — very satisfying! The curry fish balls were chewy and full of authentic flavor. The place was also super baby-friendly and even made a plain bowl of noodles especially for our baby. Will definitely be my go-to restaurant whenever I visit Edison!

No-frills, quick and tasty! The wontons and dumplings were huge and the soup was flavorful. For your bowl you can customize based on how many toppings and the type of noodles you want (or no noodles at all!). Simple menu but these guys have perfected the items they offer! One of our go-to spots when visiting Edison.

Really good food for a great price and the server was very attentive. Would definitely come back again!

I love bringing my friends and family here! Food is so authentic homey! Noodle soup is perfect for a cold day. I recommend the egg noodle soup with shrimp wontons!!

my favorite noodle soup! they have the biggest shrimp wonton I've ever had and the service is very fast

Wonton noodle actually taste similar to the one found in Hong Kong. Is bigger wonton but the freshness of the shrimp really shrine. Curry fish ball is pretty solid. Would get it as a reoccurring snack. One thing that was surprising was the brisket. Brisket was very good despite being a wonton place. Quick service, go in put your name down if there is a line. Quick and quiet place, would come back weekly. P.s: buy their chilli oil. Is like crack. Very addicting.

Went to Wonton Guy for lunch on a Saturday. It's located in a strip mall, and the parking lot is hard to get in and out of since you're backing out directly into Route 27. It's a small restaurant, gives vibes similar to a Chinese takeout joint, but with authentic wonton noodle soups. I got the wonton noodle soup with wontons, dumplings, beef brisket, and egg noodles. It was decent, especially for NJ, but nowhere near as good as going to Chinatown. At least they're quick, friendly, and have fair prices.

We walked to Wonton guy after doing some light shopping in the Hmart plaza. It's right along route 27, so it's in a great location. The inside is very no frills and that function over fashion mindset was felt throughout the experience. There are only ten tables inside and meals come out pretty quickly. So despite its size, we didn't need to wait for a seat. I had the three topping noodle soup, with egg noodles, dumplings, and sliced beef. Digging in, you can immediately tell this is Chinese comfort food through and through. Nothing fancy, but it's a large portion of food, for a very good price. Whereas most Japanese ramen restaurants tend to skimp on proteins and focus on an aesthetic meal, you won't find that here. You can come hungry, and leave satisfied. The broth was a lighter and simpler broth, and I felt the same way about the noodles. The sliced beef had good flavor, but I found it to be a bit too chewy. The dumplings were filled with shrimp and were definitely the star of the dish. Altogether, I enjoyed my experience, but I would say the restaurant is best suited as a quick, satisfying meal of value and convenience rather than something you would actively seek out.

The noodles here are legit. I think its just as good as you can get in HK. Delicious. Prices are reasonable too. We usually come here if we are looking for a quick meal. It is on the smaller side and gets busy, so I recommend avoiding the peak times. Staff speak Cantonese, Mandarin and English. Tip: get the milk tea! Bottle is $6

Wonton Guy is a great noodle soup and dumpling spot! The service is quick and it's kid friendly too. They have a booster seat and high chairs. I liked the shrimp wonton noodle soup and the flavor of the broth is nourishing. It's aromatic and light. The lo mein is not like American Chinese restaurant style but is more like a dry noodles with soup on the side. Enjoyed and would return!

This is a small restaurant located on Route 27 in Edison. There's some parking in the front and additional parking in the back. Inside, there are about 10-15 tables for dining in, and they also offer takeout. My go-to order is the shrimp wonton and dumplings with egg noodles. I like getting the soup on the side so I can control how much broth I want. The kitchen is open, so you can watch the chef preparing your food. The wontons and dumplings are a good size and well-made. And just as a joke: if you see the chef with food stains on his apron taking a break and squatting outside, that's how you know the food is good. Don't be alarmed. Overall, this is my spot whenever I'm craving wonton noodle soup.

This place is ok if you're looking for a quick, cheap meal. They definitely don't skimp on the noodles or toppings, but the quality of the food (especially the rather chewy beef) is on the somewhat lesser side. Wontons were decent enough though. The broth is very light but definitely has that msg taste one might expect from classic Chinese comfort food.

Great comfort food. Ordered wonton noodle soup with brisket and it was served hot and quick. Very flavorful broth with chili oil on the table for you to add your own spice if you like. The wontons are fresh, flavorful, and THICK! The brisket was tender and flavorful as well. The fish ball texture was not for me, but had good flavor. The service was quick and friendly. The location is small, but you are in and out. Overall 10/10 would recommend!

We order their signature wonton noodle with beef brisket, curry fishballs and choy sum. The curry fishball sauce is very thick and has a strong fragrant. The choy sum is not over cooked and has nice crunch to it. Their signature wonton noodle comes with 3 ginormous wontons and the soup base is very clean. Overall highly recommend this place if you love wonton noodles!!

Portions are huge and prices are cheap. This is definitely one of my grandparents' favorite restaurants in the area. Everything is really authentic, and the broth is super flavorful after being stewed for so long. The flavor notes are exactly reminiscent of Hong Kong and the noodles are crisp. The wontons are so massive and huge that I get sent into a food coma every time I eat it and the service is super quick. Pro tip: you can buy a side of their chili oil to take home and it's the most authentic that you can get for wonton noodles.

The food here is always good, I always love their wontons. It's HUGE, and the broth is always flavorful. If you're into the cheap meals, but good portions and nice sized atmosphere, this is definitely the place. Always a repeater.

Been going here for the past 4 years and it never fails to hit every time I go. I usually get the shrimp wonton noodle soup with brisket gravy added on top!

Being a native of Hong Kong and super picky with wonton noodle soup, this place doesn't disappoint! Their wontons are gigantic, shrimps are fresh, noodles are al dente, and the soup tastes legit. Don't miss their milk tea too - it tastes like home! The owner and servers here are really nice and efficient. Every time we come here, we'd get a whole bunch of stuff to go!

Really great wontons at reasonable prices! The shrimp wontons are massive and you'll definitely be full afterwards. They have all the sauces you need on the side too - their chili oil is super good! Only complaint is the soup base isn't as flavorful, but again it's super customizable because of the ingredients on the side. ty for reading :^)

Came here on a recommendation for lunch and glad I did. Great wontons - large in size, wrapped with thin skin, great ratio of shrimp and pork so lives up to the name. My craving for noodles and soup was well satisfied. No frills restaurant - get seated and they'll come around to give you menus and water, then take your order. Most people who are frequent customers seem to already know what their go to is but we needed a couple more minutes to check out the offerings. The tables have some hot chili flakes, red vinegar, and soy sauce as is common to add to your food if you'd like. Overall, it hit the spot and filled us up!

Want fast good service & good food? This is where its at! Food is affordable & doesnt break the bank! They have a few tables but people are in and out! Theres alot of people getting take out! It's one of the few places that offers this kind of noodles and flavor. A good alternative to ramen & its not as salty)! So good!

Food: The food is pretty good here! Noodle texture was bouncy and perfectly cooked. The wontons and dumplings are huge and packed with shrimp and pork. They tasted very fresh. The dace fish balls were disappointing though - too dense and too heavy on the flour. It didn't have much fish taste at all. Curry fishballs weren't special and can be skipped. Veggies were fresh and a nice side with the noodles. Beef brisket was tender and flavorful. Service: Service was excellent. Staff are friendly and attentive. They came to refill our water throughout the meal. Ambiance: The restaurant is small, but a lot of seating is available. It's not ideal for very large groups because their tables generally seat four people. The place can get packed during lunch on the weekends, but the wait was very short. Overall, I would recommend this restaurant!

Very authentic food! Delicious and great portion size. Would recommend The wings are a weekend special only

My wife Bridget and I looked forward to a good bowl of Noodle Soup, authentic Hong Kong cuisine. We were not disappointed with the Noodle , Dumplings, Wontons and Beef Brisket in a very cold afternoon today. Service was excellent in a very casual atmosphere and Jong Kong setting!

Authentic wontons with huge size shrimp fillings and great umami flavor in the soup - we added the yu choy and curry fishballs, felt like we were back in Kowloon night markets :)

It doesn't get more authentic than this! While Wonton Guy is quite far from where I live, I often find myself craving it just enough to make that 30 minute drive to get myself a bowl of delicious noodles. My favorite is the traditional wonton noodle soup with egg noodles but I like to add the beef brisket. The soup is so flavorful and has so much depth. The egg noodles aren't made in house but are cooked to a great bouncy texture. I love that the wontons are overstuffed too. I also really like the curry fish balls and fried fish skins as they complement the noodles well and also is a great snack before the bowl comes. The wait is never too long even when they get super packed on weekends and the food always comes out super fast. Highly recommend!

Good place for wonton noodles. I still prefer the Chinatown version, but since this place is closer and doesn't require crossing the river, it's a good alternative. The place looks small from the outside, but there are many seats available, so there's no wait to get seated, even though it was lunchtime on Saturday. The service was friendly and quick. The noodle was decent. The egg noodle wasn't appropriately cooked; it's a bit on the hard side. The shrimp dumpling was good with a nice filling. The brisket was good, but not enough; I prefer the version in Chinatown, NYC. The soup has a strange sweetness, as if sugar had been added to it. Overall, it was okay. I would go back again, if I want to get wonton noodle soup without going to NYC. You should check this place out if you want to get wonton noodle soup without crossing the river from NJ. One more information to add is that they offer a 3% discount if you pay in cash; the server will ask for cash instead of a credit card.

Still as wonderful as always. Remember to bring cash...there is a cash discount. Also they will be opened on Mondays starting 9/15/2025.

The place to get Wonton noodle soup in NJ! A bit of a drive for me but its better than paying the toll and parking to get into NYC. Only thing missing is the Cantonese BBQ items that goes really well with the wonton noodle soup!

Overall Rating: 9.5/10 Curry Fish Balls: Cooked exceptionally. Has a nice kick to it. Keep the sauce to dip other foods in it. Really good with the wontons. Two Toppings with Noodle Soup (Wontons and Beef Brisket): Noodles cooked perfectly. Wontons are giant with about 2-3 shrimps per wontons. Beef brisket cooked to perfection and breaks apart like butter. Throw some chili oil in and it's perfect.

Food here is always delicious. The wontons are huge and super flavorful. Solid curry fishballs and veggies with oyster sauce. Chill ambience as well. Recommend for anyone that digs wontons!

My party of 4 visited on a Sunday around 6pm, and was seated within 5 minutes of waiting. The restaurant is on the smaller side, but tables generally turn over relatively quickly. We ordered the wonton soup noodles and two combo noodles (wonton & dace fish balls and wonton & beef brisket). The food came out quickly and was pipping hot. The broth was quite tasty and the wontons were large in size, packed with lots of shrimp and some pork. The portion of noodles was noted to be inconsistent/on the smaller side by a couple of people in my party. Overall, a solid spot for Hong Kong wonton noodles in the area. + 5% cash discount.

As a newcomer, the server was very helpful with the menu. I got thin rice noodles with wontons and my partner got egg noodles and dashi fish balls. Both were very good. I'm not sure of everything that was in the regular wonton, but it definitely had mushrooms and pork. The soup comes with three; They're so big, I was feeling full after eating two. You can tell it was handmade. It also held up well soaking in the broth. I appreciate having a nice bowl of hot soup anytime of the year. I will definitely be back.

Wonton Guy always allows me to experience authentic tastes like I had when visiting Hong Kong many years ago. The service is super fast and the staff is friendly.

TLDR: Fantastic wonton and sui-kow, friendly service and functional seating. Eating here is just like eating on Hong Kong. Loud, boisterous, wobbly stools, but what great flavors. The only thing different being the friendly service!! The wonton and sui kow were very large, tasty and stuffed with premium ingredients. Large, fresh prawns and minced pork. The noodles were perfect with a great bite. We ordered a dish of steamed vegetable that were well cooked, yet crisp and with a bite. The crispy fish skin was the perfect accompaniment. Unfortunately, they lost a star due to the broth not being up to scratch. Not bad, just lacking that extra oomph.

Always enjoyed authentic wonton noodle here. Simple yet delicious. Noodles are always cooked perfectly and the broth is really fresh. Dumplings are great as well.

I ordered beef brisket with one topping on soup as a pick up order. The menu indicates this is selection C8 at $16.25. I was charged $17.75 not sure why but when I went to pay with my card he said the minimum was $20 so I ordered a $2 soda to bring the balance to $19.75. I was so disappointed when I went back to my office expecting this delicious meal all the reviews rave about. Instead I got piece after piece of fat and two small pieces of brisket. I'm all for layering of fat on my brisket but I counted 5 large pieces of fat and very little meat. Pictures don't lie. The plus was that the broth was tasty and the shrimp dumplings were juicy and flavorful. I might give this place another shot but there are so many options in the area I probably won't be back. It's a shame.

Delicious and traditional Hong Kong noodles and dumplings. The pork feet and beef tendons are soft and juicy!

Finally I can eat the same food like I ate in Canada Huge wonton and full filling dumplings Tasty broth Best egg noodles Servers are very nice and funny We were there in dinner time, no longer waiting for orders Plenty parking spots Definitely will come back again and again

Happy Wednesday Adventurers! I was able to try this place out via a Yelp drop in event. I tried two different days before finally being able to try out the food. This was a minimum purchase event but it was basically a BOGO type deal. I ordered the same thing to go which was perfect for the cold weather temps. The first day I went was around lunch time and there were at least 8 people waiting, ended up coming back the next day at opening (11 AM). As soon as I walked in there were already 5 tables seated (It's only about 15 tops at most). There is front parking and additional parking in the back--though that fills up fairly quickly. You can enter through the back or the front which is really cool. The menu is straightforward and very simple--4 types of noodles, 5 toppings, and variations of the same dish. I ordered the wontons, dumplings, vermicelli noodles, and sliced beef. I added veggies, I kinda wish I tried the fried fish skin, I saw a lot of people adding it to the soups and it looked appetizing. The broth is on the softer side of flavor, but still really good. I enjoyed the dumplings and wontons but they don't cut the shrimp for them so you're biting into a huge piece of meat. The beef was really good, I think it made the dish more flavorful. I did notice that this was a spot where most patrons come in eat quickly and leave, not much sitting around. The turn around was really quick while I sat there which is pretty refreshing since some people will sit for hours with no concept of time. I'd say stop in--early--enjoy a hot bowl of wonton, dumplings, and noodles and go on your merry way. Oh! that service was efficient and really kind at explaining everything to me. It was my first time and they happily let me know of how it worked with the Yelp 'coupon.

Very authentic food! Yummy good ! Good service! It is hard to find such authentic Cantonese food here!! 超级好食，loveeeee it!

Admittedly, I am usually unsure if I am eating authentic Chinese food or Chinese-American food. Between the rich history lesson in the front of the menu, and the flavors and textures I experienced throughout my meal, I had no doubt that I had enjoyed an authentic meal the night I dined at Wonton Guy. I enjoyed reading about the roots of Wontons in southern China, I also appreciated the explanation of the process they take to make the wontons and the soup base. In the menu I read that the soup base is an important part of enjoying wontons, and has the special and essential ingredient of dried flounder fish. I was a little nervous about this because I really do not enjoy seafood, but the menu assures that the dried flounder adds a delicious aroma that is not at all fishy. I had an open mind and was delighted to taste that the menu rang true! No fishy taste at all, only a pleasant soup base. I ordered the Two Toppings Lo Mein with Beef Brisket and Dumplings with the flat rice noodle. This is very different from the lo mein you get at Chinese-American restaurants. This lo mein is still in a soup base. I added the chili oil that is provided on each table and dug in. The chili oil really complimented the dish and took it to the next level. The beef brisket was so tender and perfect- I highly recommend adding beef brisket to whatever dish you choose to get! There was also cabbage included and it added a nice crunch to the dish and I appreciated having some green! The dumplings were very good, as mentioned before I am not a huge seafood person and a large portion of the filling is shrimp but that is one seafood I do enjoy. The filling in the dumpling was very generous!! I didn't taste or see any pork in the filling but because of the amount in the dumpling I assume it was there. The staff was very helpful in answering any questions we had and they were friendly. The restaurant was clean and upon entering you can see into the kitchen. Even though the kitchen is kind of open to the dining room, we stayed very cool in the air conditioned room, on a 95 degree day!

Thankful a Yelp event introduced us to this place. Now, we can't get enough. It's in a strip mall and it's nothing fancy but we like it so much. The value is unmatched. The flavors are on point. We love the early hours because they work for Sunday brunch. And we like the quick, friendly service. We got there 10 minutes after opening and it was packed so make sure you get there early or you'll have to wait.

Love hot, freshly made soups of all types, especially of the Chinese variety, so when I read reviews for Wonton Guy I was intrigued. Would WG's potage be as good as I enjoy at home? It was worth a drive from Bucks to find out. The answer was a split score. The wonton and dumpling were very good - loaded with shrimp, pork and other fillings. Each was a heavy, dense lift that needed a few bites to consume. Definitely worthy of note. On the other hand, the liquid portion of the bowl left something to be desired. Ours seemed to be chicken stock base with a fist of rice noodles that continue to absorb the extremely hot soup until it occupied nearly the entire bowl. They were bland and uninteresting compared to the big boy wonton/dumpling. Tossed in a spoonful of chili sauce to up the flavor ante, which did the trick. Still, I wasn't compelled to finish the slurping due to the continued expansion of the noodles and less than memorable soup foundation. The floor plan has a small dining area in front (10 tables?), with view of the kitchen in back. Service was okay, but laissez faire. Final verdict - The soup at home is better than Wonton Dude, but he might consider selling the wonton dry (or maybe he does already). Three steaming Stars.

I'd give this place a 3.8/5. There isn't many Cantonese wonton places in Edison, and this was my first time having wonton noodles in so long. The soup separate from the noodles is classic, and their flavor profile was on point. It was an affordable, nostalgic lunch. There isn't much seating though, nor parking at the front.

Perfect spot especially on cold weather days! Who doesn't love soups?! I've came here on three separate occasions and they have consistently serve delicious wontons, dumplings and noodles soups. My fav is the shrimp and pork wonton soups. The amount of shrimp packed in this babies are gigantic and well worth the money spent. A bowl ordered is very filling. Be careful on their chili left on the table. My first time visit, I pour a good teaspoon size and holy hell, my lips and throat burned and this is coming from a gal who love spicy food. Plenty of parking in the back of the business here. Make sure to come early for dinner as the tables get filled up quickly here.

Came here for take out and ordered the lo mein with their braised beef and wontons, soup with wontons, dumplings and sliced beef and a side of curry fish balls. The lo mein was not your typical American Chinese take out lo mein. It is much lighter and simpler in flavor. You get to choose what type of noodles you want and what toppings you want. I chose the flat noodles with braised beef and wontons. The braised beef was tender and similar to other braised beefs that I've had with flavors of star anise and cinnamon. The wontons were the star here...they were huge, flavorful and packed with shrimp with a silky wrapper. The noodles themselves were fine. There was not really a sauce but it came with soup on the side. The soup with wontons, dumplings and sliced beef was very good. The soup itself tasted clean and flavorful. The dumplings were also very flavorful like the wontons but I believe these were predominantly filled with pork. The sliced beef was flavorful and tender. The curry fish balls had a lot a flavor. The fish balls tasted like typical fish balls but the curry that they used tasted more spiced than your typical Chinese curry which I enjoyed. Overall I thought this place was really good. The wontons and dumplings are some of the best I've had. The braised beef and sliced beef are also very good and flavorful. Next time I'd probably opt for the noodle soup rather than the lo mein or dry noodles since it was a little lacking in flavor for me. The person taking my order was also very friendly.

Amazing wontons in a great atmosphere! Good prices too ($11 for shrimp wonton noodle soup). Try some easy lunch!

The wontons here are YUUUUUGE. like two shrimps rolled into one wonton. Came here for an early dinner around 5pm with no wait and this place did not disappoint. I got the beef brisket wonton rice (haw) noodle and devoured it in five mins flat. We also tried the choy sum vegetable side that comes steamed with oyster sauce. A classic staple. The hot chili oil on the table is , a little bit on the spicier side but I ain't no punk B. So good we ordered two more to go which I got the regular egg noodle and I think that was better just because it's the OG classic way. Will be back again!

Wow! This is a must dine in restaurant! The food comes out super hot and delicious. We all got the 3 toppings with our noodle. Everything looked good and we wanted to try all. My friends and I even finished our soups since it was that good. Very small shop but it's a quick in and out meal. Reasonable prices. There's parking in the front or back of the restaurant. Will recommend and come back!
