We arrived just after 5 & were only the 2nd table occupied. Over the next 40 minutes 5 additional tables filled up. We ordered the green beans to start. They are fantastic w/ mushrooms, ground beef, chilis & sone other yummy spices. I love green beans & these are a 5 out of 5.We order the sweet & sour pork as well as the eggplant w/ garlic sauce. The pork was thinly sliced w/ the breading being just right. The sauce is very tasty & the presentation is excellent. 5 out of 5 The eggplant dish is to die for. Plenty of veggies (jalapeños, carrot, onions, celery) & the garlic sauce is sooo good. 6 out of 5. We will definitely be returning w/ more family members. Cheers Uncle Wang!!

There are two menus here. Ask for both.Tonight we had the House Tofu, dry chili green beans, and sesame noodles. All three were excellent and we had to take half of it home-- the portions are huge.The Tofu was Szechuan style, onions, green peppers, and some great wedges of dusted tofu. Delicious!Of many Chinese dine-in restaurants, Uncle Wang's is unpretentious, has great service, and is reasonably priced. It leans towards the spicier Szechuan and Hunanese versions of Chinese offerings, but also has really good Chinese American standards if this is your style. You don't hear the English language here much, an indication of its popularity with international students from China and SE Asia. Really good and earns its five stars, a rare rating for me. I'm stuffed and smiling really widely as I write this. They are a joy.

The third chinese restaurant we visited in Bloomingtoon. It is quite a roomy place. It is a typical chinese restaurant where you see mrnu with a picture on the wall. We ordered sliced pork belly with garlic sauce. Very nice presentation.The pork belly tastes dry, and the raw garlic is very strong in the sauce. It is good but not as good as the one we had before.Sweet and sour pork is ok. The pork is crispy, and the red sauce is good. It is just that the pork might need better seasoning.The stir fry cabbage with chili was recommended because they ran out string bean, but it is not good. Not much taste.Sichuan pepper fish stew is yummy. It has mung bean noodle, bean sprout. Overall, it was ok dinner. Pricewise it is similar to other chinese restaurants. I can say it is not cheap. I believe there is an extra charge for credit card transactions.

Never had chinese food like this before. The dish that really blew my mind was the spicy fish-I think there was a lot of szechuan pepper in the broth 'cause I never knew your tongue could be numb like that in a very different and odd sort of way. The fish was excellent, probably something simple like a tilapia or some other white fish, but done very well.Next came the shredded potato and garlic dish. Very garlicky, potatoes were ok but this was not part of the hit parade.The eggplant was absolutely delicious, a great tangy sauce, lots of garlic and chiles and the right amount of heat. Finally, the other star of the show was the fried oysters. Hot an crispy, nicely spiced with slices of green chiles and cilantro on top. Again, I have to say I've never had chinese food like this before. This is a hole in the wall but well worth it. The portions are also super generous, and served family style, the four dishes were just about as much as we could eat-we took a bit home in the end. Not everything came out at once and we did I'm get egg drop soup to start which was also great. Service was normal for a hole in the wall. Try it, you won't be disappointed.

Uncle Wangs is amazing! I had a hankering for Peking Duck -- a birthday self-indulgence. It was really incredible. For an extra $10, they'll make a soup from the bones. Get it! Everything was terrific: eggplant, fried rice, wontons. But that duck! Wow!

I wished I could give this restaurant zero star. Management was very rude to employees. Owner was yelling to the waiter at our presence because of the mixup in our order and we refused to accept the wrong food. Food is nothing authentic about. $18.95 for a "Fried Squid with garlic sauce" with only tentacles in it is a crime. We don't pay $20 for eating tentacles squid at a restaurant. There are dishes on the menu but you can't order it because they don't offer it at present. It's not a nice peaceful atmosphere for a night out. We're not coming back wasting our money to support a mean employer. This is not China. You can't treat your employees as such degrading.

Surpassed expectations. Very tasty and well done. Sichuan menu. Several hot pots available on menu including a create your own option. I ordered mapo tofu and dry chili cabbage. Mapo tofu was peppercorn heavy which I prefer in this dish. Ground pork within gave good textural accent. Spice level good and not overly oily which can be case with this dish. The cabbage stole the show. Very light sauce with crunchy cabbage mixed with peppercorn, chili peppers and green peppers stir fried then served in bowl over open flame to continue heating up and flavoring dish through meal. Portions large. Free egg drop soup served as app with ordering of meal. Recommend this place to anyone who loves Sichuan inspired food.

3 friends & I dined here for the first time on 01/23/25. We pre-ordered the Peking Duck. The food was terrific, but the highlight of our visit was our server. This young woman not only took care of the numerous table guests but also handled the brisk carry-out business. She was friendly & informative & never showed the least bit of frustration with trying to keep all guests happy. I'd never had Peking Duck, but my friends were thrilled with the dish. Our server pointed out some new ways to enjoy it (sugar!), which even my friends found of great interest. We will all look forward to dining at Uncle Wang's again soon & hope our new favorite server will be on duty.
