Wahsing Restaurant

Several people told me this was the best chinese carryout spot on that particular side of town and they were not wrong. Make sure you bring cash. They DO NOT accept credit cards. I came in to order the $7.65 lunch special general tso chicken with fried rice which is a $1.50 upcharge. That's cool. No biggie. It turned out to be very delicious. The chicken tasted fresh and it was very tender. The only complaints I have about the general tso chicken was that it could have been some more pieces of chicken in the container. Maybe I didn't get that much because it was the lunch special, but it was definitely yummy and worth the trip. The chicken had a little too much general tso sauce on it, so I might have to tell them to make it with a little less sauce next time. The fried rice was pretty much standard when it comes to some carryout's fried rice. Nothing extra was added to it like onions, bean sprouts, or eggs, however it was delicious. You know the fried rice is good when you don't need any soy sauce to go along with it.I also got a pork egg roll and 3 whole chicken wings along with my order. The pork egg roll was meh. Nothing extravagant about it. Their whole chicken wings are pretty good, but they're definitely overpriced. 3 whole wings (that's the minimum count) for $4.65 is a ripoff. Their mambo sauce is not the greatest though. It has a nice consistency that's a perfect match for your wings or french fries where its not watered down or too thick, but it failed to meet the connection with it's sweet, tangy, and spicy taste. They also have a mini bar which is cool and I really like their old fashioned cash registers. If you need an ATM, use the one at the gas station or the one at the convenient store that's like 3 stores down.

Unfortunately I will not be returning. I got food poisoning twice the last two times I ate here. It was really bad, and that was the last straw. I use to love this place but I can't. The food doesn't taste the same anyway since they hired Hispanic cooks instead of letting the Asian cooks still run the kitchen.

My mom has been frequenting this carry out for years bc the food is good. Yes, they are cash only and do not have a ATM. They have a dilapidated restaurant area which is no longer open to the public but select patrons can sit and drink in that area.This is where there's-a turn for the worse. I've never like the rude demeanor of the older gentleman. I'm not referencing cultural demeanors but moreso how he speaks to customers. That being said my mom typically goes, not me. Today I went to pick up our family's order since I was in town. Shrimp egg fu young, two half steak and cheese, two orders of fries, and half n half came up to $36+. We noticed were missing the fries and half n half, also there's open sauce packets in the bottom of the bag. We call and the man has the nastiest response. My mom calls back and he yells and hangs up. They don't give receipts...so basically we will no longer go to this establishment.

I had high hopes. I used to go here in early 2000's for cocktails and general tso's. I remember the GT being absolutely delicious!! I had it today and it was meh... sorry. The sauce is divine but that chicken is that weird textured stuff I've been seeing online. STRINGY CHICKEN! But how?! I have only been getting the shrimp egg foo young from them lately but wanted something different today. I should have stuck with what I know! As their shrimp egg foo young, it has remained consistently delicious over the years!! Giving 3 stars for nostalgia's sake!!

I don't know why my friend chose this restaurant I guess because it was the only place open. The food here was completely disgusting! I ordered the shrimp with garlic sauce and they piled the container with sautéed onions and only 6 shrimp! I've never seen or had anything like that in my life. The 1/2 lb steamed shrimp were so tiny like seafood salad shrimp and over cooked. The restaurant refused to give a receipt of my order and stated they have a mandatory 10% tax on orders the service of the Chinese lady was dismissive and rude. WILL NEVER EVER GO BACK AGAIN! Zero stars is what this place deserves.

Never disappoints. The only Chinese restaurant I go to,period. My favs are egg foo young, lo mein, shrimp and beef broccoli, pork fried rice and egg rolls.

The fact that they don't accept credit cards in the 21st century says a lot. I do like their fried rice . The egg rolls tend to be greasy and also the sweet and sour chicken was little hard and greasy to me

Really good egg foo young! I recently moved to Anacostia and have been looking for a good Chinese food restaurant to get my egg food young fix. This place is just a mile and change from my home and in a convenient location right in a small shopping plaza on Pennsylvania Ave. off of 295. I ordered shrimp egg foo young over the phone and was greeted as soon as I came in. It cost $11 (with tax) which I thought was kind of high but most Chinese food places in this area seem to charge that (I feel some kind of way that I could get shrimp egg foo young in my old 'hood, Columbia Heights for $7.50 and this developing 'hood serving mostly minorities and lower income people charge much more) but I was happy with the quality (fresh, large shrimp). I will come back here again. Oh, and make sure you bring cash because they do not except credit or debit cards.

I ordered the shrimp egg foo young and it was soooo good!! This place never disappoints!!

Food was awful...we ordered fried chicken wings and medium combination fried rice...$24 and some change for the most worst Chinese food I ever ate: The chicken wings which were probably precooked were not done and the combination rice was fried much too hard. This was probably due to them reheating it over and over and then giving it to customers.Please do not eat here!!! We all deserve better than this for our hard earned money especially during these times of pandemic when the prices of everything has gone up.I definitely don't recommend this place and won't go back!!!**pls note that I gave one star because i had to in order to post this!!!
