Wong's King Seafood Restaurant, or simply Wong's King, was a chain of Chinese and seafood restaurants in the Portland metropolitan area, in the U.S. state of Oregon.[1][2]
History
Wong's King opened in 2004.[3] The original restaurant was located at 8733 Southeast Division in Portland's Montavilla neighborhood; other restaurants were in Beaverton, Estacada, and Sandy.[4] In September 2011, the Beaverton restaurant rebranded itself as Lychee Asian Bistro and Noodle House. Ownership did not change, but the restaurant's menu focused on noodle and rice dishes instead of dim sum.[4]
Wong's King closed in 2020, during the COVID-19 pandemic.[3]
