Sweet Wonton House

I use Eater.com NY and The New York Times restaurant reviews for weekend brunch tips and occasionally for dinners. I want to write about two very different eateries – one for breakfast and lunch (also for dinner) and the other open all day.

We were looking forward to trying Santa Fe BK’s Green Chile Breakfast Burritos, sausage, bacon, or potato, served 8 am until gone. Arriving at 10 am, we were happy to see that they had plenty of burritos. Stuffed to the brim with eggs, bacon or sausage, potatoes, cheese and slightly spicy, they made a hefty breakfast. We enjoyed them so much, we returned the next day for lunch for Green Chili Cheeseburgers and Fries, also hefty and good!

Breakfast and lunch are thru a take out window, but dinner is seated.
N 8th Street, Brooklyn, NY

8 am until gone; 11 am -3

The Sweet Wonton House was a lovely surprise. Located on Northern Boulevard in Littleneck, Queens, its hours are 9 -9. It’s a small storefront restaurant, but the menu is extensive – dim sum items, a variety of congees, wonton soups (delicate dumplings filled with juicy chunks of shrimp in bone broth), siu mai and rice rolls, to name just a few. I ordered a beef-parsley rice roll, wonton soup with a combination of shrimp/pork dumplings and an order of stir fried Chinese broccoli. Everything was delicious.

Prices in both restaurants are reasonable, and both are a Yes to a return.
