Wo Hop, Chinatown, Manhattan

Discover NYC
Written By Leanne Staples

Update - I had a wonderful group of students in March. Wo Hop was able to arrange seating for 15 people in their outdoor space. We had a fabulous waiter (Danny) who made certain that everything was perfect including heat.

To top it all off, not only was the food fabulous as always, he did selfies with the group. They were so so happy and for most of them it was their first trip to NYC. Updated 11 April 2022

Wo Hop is a fabulous no frills Cantonese cuisine restaurant that has been in business since 1938! It feels like you're entering a secret place as it is downstairs. Wo Hop is the favorite go-to restaurant in Chinatown for many New Yorkers including the NYPD. The walls are filled with hundreds of $1 bills that are signed from people around the world and patches from police and fireman uniforms. They are open from 10am-7am. So it is the place to go after a night on the town. Be forewarned that they are cash only and the dishes are large. Definitely worth it the experience and the food is really good..
