Do they deliver?

No. Eat in or take out only

Why do the reviews vary so wildly? Is it worth the higher cost as some have pointed out or can I find another similar restaurant in the area that is better?

I agree with Dave and Benzig. Very good food. Last night we had pint of hot & sour soup, spring egg roll, pint of lo mein, and pint of chicken w/mushrooms for $17.00.

My father was taking us to eat to a Chinese place and we saw Tony Wangs. From the outside it looks horrible, there was trash, and it looked dirty and really creepy. My mother said it looked like a witch place with the dragons painting. And reading some of the bad reviews from Tony Wangs scared us. We decided not to go in.

Thought the food here was disturbingly disgusting it was stretchy and bland. It’s not the best Chinese in Lancaster so please go somewhere else.

Best old school Chinese place in central pa. We drive from Harrisburg just for this place. Too many so called fusion and buffet place's with average Chinese food.

My dad recommended this place. I wasn't sure what to expect but I was absolutely impressed once I went inside. The style is a little outdated but everything is clean and neat. Our server and the manager were really kind and accomidating and the food was delicious. Found a new spot to frequent for sure. I highly recommend trying it out if you have not yet.

Forever the best Chinese food in Lancaster. The wonton soup is so good. The noodles are silky smooth and thin. I've been going for years and the consistency is top notch.

I'm sad because this place used to have the best shrimp lo mein in Lancaster. Flavorful, fresh, good shrimp and good sauce. Unfortunately they've gone down hill. Ordered large shrimp lo mein and it tasted completely off. Shrimp so mushy you couldn't recognize they were shrimp plus they looked like they had a white film over them. Noodles were extremely dry and tasted old. Egg rolls were also cold although they were very big and flavorful. Gave 2 stars because they were once spectacular, however old food and near rancid shrimp is completely unacceptable.

The last time I went to Tony Wang's, I observed an employee walk directly out of his toilet stall and into the kitchen. He did not wash his hands. I refuse to go back.

Always love Tony's. They are fast and give you plenty of food. My family usually does takeout and Tony always hands us our food and chats with us. It's your typical American version of Chinese food as far as taste.

Every time I gone there, they have had great food and great prices! People talking about cockroaches is just BS. Don't let that stop you from enjoying a real good Chinese restaurant. The proportions are amazing for what they cost. And with that it is The best Chinese food I have had in a very long time.this restaurant definitely deserves five stars and that's what I'm giving them. Take my word for it and eat there one time and you will be hooked!

One of Lancaster's "best kept secrets" I have lived in Lancaster my entire life and Tony Wang's has always been my favorite Chinese restaurant in the area. Such friendly service, delicious food, and you can always count on Tony to be there to greet you with a smile. Yeah, location seems a bit sketchy and the decor hasn't been updated in years, but that is all part of it's charm and what makes it special. I hope they never change a thing.10/10 would reccomend.

Their chicken fried rice is delicious. Very flavorful and no need for extra sauce or seasoning of any kind. The owner was there and his wife was super kind. As others mentioned, it’s a pretty outdated, but who doesn’t love a good dive? I will definitely go back!

If well made Chinese food is what you want, this is the place. If you are looking for an exquisite exterior, go someplace else. Tony presides over a team of chefs whose mastery of the wok is second to none. One end of the kitchen is a huge window, so you can watch your meal being made if you wish.

Moved away from Lancaster County two years ago. Came back for a visit. This was the first place on our "must do" list. We cannot find any Chinese restaurant in our new home area that even comes close to Tony Wang's. Flavorful food and great service.

Have been going to Mr. Wang's restaurant since the early '80s. Have never had a bad meal. Usually go for the lunch combo which is served to 3pm. Yesterday arrived after 3pm and had the New York combo which is served from 3-5pm. Ordered my usual, Ma La Chicken with hot & sour soup, plain fried rice and the biggest, tastiest, egg roll ever. Wow, everything was fantastic! Tony is always there and always talkative and friendly. There is only one waitress but she is very good and very attentive. My only complaint is that I live 40 minutes away, otherwise, I would be eating here 1-2x weekly. In addition the interior is among the nicest and cleanest of any local Chinese restaurant.

Have not been here for many years and this evening thought we would try to get a lite dinner. We ordered crispy sesame chicken. It was so dry & loaded with fat & hard pieces of gristle. I could not cut one of the pieces with the steak knife they gave me ! Very disappointed and when we told them, they did comp our chicken. They pork fries rice was delicious. Not sure if we will give it another try or not ?!?!?!

Based on other reviews we looked forward to trying Tony Wang's, but unfortunately we were pretty disappointed with the food. The restaurant facility itself has been neglected and adds to the disappointment. I don't think we'll go back.

Our family has traveled all over the world and this is by far the best Chinese ever. We have been coming here for years since my mom had a bed and breakfast in the area. Service is excellent,food is always great and plentiful. Won ton is like no other! Don't let the exterior fool you. I believe that they are not the owners..therefore they may have no control.

This place is old school delicious. The owner is always there to greet you and make sure everything is at its best year after year. If your looking for 20 foot lions outside the door with high prices go to the mall. If your looking for awesome Chinese in a friendly family owned restaurant with family friendly prices go here!

Great food, and the Tony Wang Family couldn’t be nicer or more accommodating. Despite what you may have read in the news, Tony Wang’s is not closing. They are looking for a new location, but they are open for business! They place doesn’t look like much. The outside of the building is run down, since the landlord is trying to sell the property to a developer, expecting the building to be torn down. But do t let that keep you away. It’s a great lunch stop. I had sweet and sour pork with fried rice, egg drop soup, and Chinese tea, and my whole check was only $7.16!!

Of all the things I miss about living in Lancaster, Tony Wang's is my most missed. Tony is a Lancaster OG. The restaurant has remained nearly identical to when I can remember eating there as a child in the late 80s and early 90s. Do yourself a favor and stop eating at every other Chinese restaurant you eat at. This is the best. The tops. There is nothing served here that isn't made with attention, detail, flavor, love and warmth. If you're able to catch Tony up front, he's always happy to chat with you and is one of the kindest souls in all of Lancaster. Eat here now!

My wife and I look forward to eating here. To the tourists, it looks run down. Well, it kind of is. However, the food is really good and consistent. You will almost always see Tony at the restaurant seating customers and mingling. If you drink some of your water be prepared to have it filled right back up. Try and find service like that, anywhere. Prices are great and menu is extensive.

A lot of mixed reviews for here, but I have been giving Tony my business for almost 10 years and I have never had a bad meal. Tony, the owner obviously, has been making all the sauces from scratch since day 1. He only uses Perdue chicken and local pork and beef. BEST CHINESE!! don't let the "dive" look and 80's pink wallpaper scare you away, they are not about the looks of the place, but the quality food you get, and if you worry about how your food is cooked, you can watch the cooks in the back through the giant window into the kitchen.
