November 28, 2024 – Thanksgiving Hours

Sun Wah BBQ has limited hours for Thanksgiving Thursday in 2024. Carry-out counter opens starting at 8:30am. Dining room service begins at 10:00am with final seating at 4:30pm. Advance reservation is always recommended as walk-in wait times may start tickling the 2-hour mark — or not available at all if it shoots beyond the 4:30pm final seating. Walk-in carry out orders may also take considerably longer to fulfill on this busy day.

October 31, 2024 – CLOSED Halloween

For Thursday, Sun Wah BBQ will be closed on Halloween, not because it’s Halloween, but because it’s our off-day Thursday. Beijing Duck Dinners will once again be available for goblin on Friday November 1st. Happy Halloween!

Thin Egg Noodle is also called Wonton Mein

Sunday October 6 this year marks National Noodle Day. Sun Wah BBQ’s menu covers the gamut of noodles served throughout Hong Kong and southern China. Most of our noodle varieties can be prepared in a soup, lo mein, or stir fry form. The wide scale of toppings and add-ins can create a staggering number of noodle dish variations.

July 26, 2024 – City Maintenance is Finished

On Friday, July 26, Sun Wah BBQ will be closed during the morning and will reopen at 1:30pm. The City of Chicago will be conducting work on their water system for the region.

Update: The City’s scheduled time? Bogus. Front curb still dug up and the restaurant is without water as of 4:00pm. Sun Wah BBQ will offer limited carry-out for the time being. Our dining room has to remain closed until further notice.

Updated Update: As of 5:00pm, the City crew has buttoned up the curb and water has been restored. Sun Wah BBQ is open again.
