Customer Reviews
Sun Chong has a rating of 4.6 out of 5 based on over 2047 reviews on Google
The food and service were both incredible. Huge shout out to our waiter Oowauwe on being so informative with great details on all of the dishes 10/10 service. As far as the food, we had the crab rangoon dip, Korean styled wings, and the crawfish fried rice. All were amazing and tasty. The quality was definitely there. Will be back for sure before I leave NOLA to try some other dishes (the house special soup described by our waiter sounded hearty and delicious).
We visited Sun Chong during our recent visit and I have to say while the dishes were delicious, I don’t know if I would consider them fusion dishes. It seemed like a straight forward Korean or creole dish with a dusting of the other. Some were just straight Korean food like the kimbap or the bulgogi with no creole fusion or flair. That said for the prices seemed a bit steep for some of the dishes. For example the kimbap should not cost $17. I will say the dishes that were 100% worth it are the yum yum ribs, lobster pasta and the sun Chong chicken. The dumplings were also a miss as they were mostly skin and not enough filling. The service on the other hand deserves a 5 star on its own! The wait staff were amazing, prompt and very engaging with us! Good service always makes the experience! The restaurant was very packed considering the time and the drinks came out fast and the food was not far behind! The restaurant is great for an intimate vibe and having gone in a larger group not as ideal as it was kind of loud inside. Regardless the food was delicious whether they nailed the fusion or not so highly recommend!
Finally knocked Sun Chong off my list. I love the atmosphere and the 90’-00’s playlist R&B y’all. Takes me back. Enjoyed the "I Love You" cocktail-cute bottle of a presentation and coloring to make the drink which is out of lychee & dragonfruit. As good, we tried the lettuce wraps and the Korean fried chicken with crawfish fried rice with light veggies. It could have been a bit more moist but overall the dish was delicious. Great flavor and my new favorite chicken. Peanut was a doll who served us. My next try will be the spicy seafood ramen!
I had such a great experience at Sun Chong. The flavor profiles were so unique and incredibly flavorful. Everything felt so creative and thoughtfully put together, which made the meal really stand out. My bartender did an amazing job describing and recommending the dishes, and they truly sold me on what to order. Everything she suggested did not disappoint.
Tishara was our server and she knew the menu in and out and provide my husband and I with the best recommendation. We loved the Spicy Eggdrop Ramen and Etouffee dumplings. This is an amazing! Great music, atmosphere, and just cool vibes. Loved it! Definitely a must see!
You know. The place has good food. Okay drinks. It's just not a price place match. For 3 people we ended up paying $274.00 with tip. Auto gratuity sitting at the bar. Not a white linen place, so it was weird spending that kind of money. Try it out for yourself. It just wasn't most of that for me. Perhaps it needs to be fancier to match the price. We ordered 3 apps, 3 entrees and 3 drinks and 1 dessert. So, 10 items. Averaged $22 per item before tip.
The food was amazing!! Beautiful restaurant, drinks were bomb, music was super good, and our waiter Cyrill was amazing!! He was so nice, personable, and very knowledgeable about the history of the restaurant and the food. My boyfriend and I were very impressed. We met the owner and she was super sweet. 10/10!! We will definitely be back!!
