Wo Hop
The other great late Chinatown stop, hidden below street level. Wo Hop, run by the same family since 1938, is a basement room of old-school Cantonese-American comfort food — roast pork, wonton soup, lo mein — exactly the unfussy fuel you want at 2am. The signed photos and decades of grime are the decor. It's a different flavor of late-night than Noodletown, and worth having both in the rotation.
A basement Chinatown institution since 1938 — old-school Cantonese-American, open into the small hours.
