The Sesame chicken was undercooked, pink and some pieces were raw. Called and they apologized and said they would remake it. Went back up there and chicken is mushy and still pink. Egg foo young was so dried out and hard my husband couldn't eat it. So disappointed!!! read more

88 Wok as become my 'go-to for Chinese takeout!I really enjoy their cream cheese wontons and egg rolls. They have a good variety on their menu and even have 'diet options' for folks who are doing better at sticking to their New Year's resolutions than I am! I will continue to order from 88 Wok and would recommend them to other people in the area! read more

88 Wok Chinese Restaurant - Sesame Chicken Special - Chinese Near Me - Andover, Minnesota

I ordered 2 quart sizes of fried rice as the description of the side of fried rice states "crispy fried rice mixed with scrambled eggs and vegetables". To my surprise there was absolutely no eggs or vegetables in this. Just straight up white rice that's been fried in the sauce they use to make fried rice. I called to ask them about why there wasn't any vegetables or egg and the lady stated "you got a side of fried rice, there's nothing that goes in it". I told her that on their website where I placed my order the description states that the rice comes with eggs and vegetables. She reiterates that it doesn't come with it. I then reiterate that the website states it does. She says "ok well I'll let them know". She wasn't rude during this call. But instead of apologizing for their false advertisement she felt the need to repeat that the rice would be plain with nothing in it. Had I known the rice came without eggs and veggies as it stated, I would have definitely ordered a different rice option. Now I know for next time not to make that mistake again. Hopefully they update their menu so it's not falsely advertising for others. read more

88 Wok Chinese Restaurant - The false advertisement for their side of fried rice lol - Chinese Near Me - Andover, Minnesota

This was unfortunately a pretty mediocre experience as everything was a bit subpar from the rice being a bit on the crispy side, to the wontons being a little too moist on the outside. You can definitely do a lot better in terms of Chinese cuisine. read more

I had been going to the same Chinese restaurant for 15 years until they changed owners. I was looking for a place as good as what I had. I went to many Chinese restaurants and finally found this to make my weekly meal. It is excellent and just as good week after week. read more

Ordered crab rangoons General Tso chicken and beef lo mein. All were pretty good. Classic Chinese American cuisine. read more

I ordered the chicken and vegetables that's exactly what it was a lot of chicken a couple pieces of broccoli, a little onions, celery, and 3 small pieces green pepper a couple mushrooms absolutely no flavoring. I don't know if they forgot to put the flavor in. There was no garlic. No nothing it was just chicken and vegetables. It be great for somebody on a diet or something probably won't eat there again read more

Decent local Chinese food spot. It's nothing special but it's a solid place for basic Chinese food. There chicken fried rice is good, same with there beef lo mein and egg rolls. A little on the bland side but still pretty good. We recently ordered a large variety from them and the only dish I didn't like was there chow mein. It came in a plastic to go container, about half of the container was white rice. But the chow mein itself was almost all onions, we had maybe 3 pea pods and only 4 or 5 pieces of celery in it. Overall it's a alright local Chinese food spot. We probably wouldn't eat here if it wasn't so close though. read more

Average Chinese takeout type food. I was a little scared to try them out after reading all of the horrible Yelp reviews. I thought they were okay, average. They aren't great. But it wasn't bad either. There are certainly a few Chinese joints close by that are FAR worse. I stopped in at 9:00 pm on a Sunday. The whole family was still hustling, doing a brisk takeout and delivery business. You can eat in if you want - small, no frills, nothing fancy. They're obviously setup to crank out takeout & delivery orders. I'm used to these places ordering by menu number only. When I ordered a #80 (spicy beef), I thought it was pretty funny that they had to lookup it up. Usually, they insist on the number instead of the description. The food came out super fast, piping hot, and with a smile. It was average, nothing special, like a hundred other Chinese takeout joints in neighborhoods all over the metro. -Daddy Maxx Retro read more

We just moved to Coon Rapids from St. Cloud and went about the business of finding our favorite Asian food delivery place. My husband stumbled across this restaurant on one of his trips around town and was pleasantly surprised. We have since ordered weekly delivery or take-out. I love their Lo Mein options and my husband loves the Chicken & Broccoli. I'm impressed with their meat. The chicken was flavorful and nicely sauced without being slimy. Not a fan of peas and carrots in fried rice but they're few enough that I can pick out for my hubby. Only reason for not 5 stars is because I haven't been to the actual restaurant itself. read more

Have ordered take out from this restaurant for over 10 years. Tonight we ordered $45 worth of food and it was by far the worst we have ever had. Sweet and sour shrimp was burnt. Shrimp was so dry we threw it out. The egg rolls were soggy and flavorless. The fried rice was the worst we have ever eaten from this restaurant. Honey walnut shrimp was so bad that we couldn't eat it. We will not go back here again. read more

Found an actual rock in my tofu. Might have broken a tooth now. Would not recommend. Want my money back. Never ordering from here again. read more

88 Wok Chinese Restaurant - a small green stone on a person's hand - Chinese Near Me - Andover, Minnesota

Read my reviews and one will quickly discover that my reviews rarely give negative reviews. I know that these small restaurants are run by hard working families trying to make ends meet. No doubt 88 Wok is no different. I have frequented this establishment dozens of times over the past several years and I very much TRIED to give it my support, but tonight's supper is the end of my patronage. On the very best days this place is the typical American Chinese restaurant. That's on the very best days.... But more commonly, it is not a very good typical American Chinese restaurant because the quality control is completely inconsistent. Tonight was no different. My meal was exceptionally bad. We placed our order online at 8:17. It was delivered to our home (after two 2! phone calls) around 9:30 PM. My sweet and sour pork happy meal was cold and soggy to the point of being rubbery and the egg roll tasted terrible. Honestly, I actually spit it out into the garbage. The fried rice was greasy AND clumping together. In a word: nasty. But here's the weird part: My wife had shrimp lo mein with cheese wantons. It was fine... she liked it. My meal was awful and hers was fine. GAH! So frustrating! Lack of consistency makes ordering meals a risk and after several years of hoping to see the consistency come, I was convinced tonight it won't. read more

Some of the worst Chinese I have ever had. My husband ordered honey chicken and there was no sauce at all and only salt. It was inedible. My father in law had sweet and sour pork and there was so much breading you could barely find the pork. I tried one piece and it was only breading. My Singapore noodles had no flavor. We will not be back...not sure how honey chicken can have no sweet flavor and only salt..how disappointing read more

I really like the Happy Meals they offer! Lots of good food for $10! The employees are friendly and polite. read more

Very good Chinese! Fresh and crisp veggies. Egg rolls are great too. My son loved the noodles

We ordered vegetable egg rolls, vegetable mai fun and vegetable fried rice. It was the best Chinese food we've had in a long time! Flavorful, crispy egg rolls, fresh veggies - so good! read more

Food was good but I felt a little pricey for what you got. I prefer a Chinese dish to grab you and say"come back, I'm worth it" but this just didn't do it for me. To many other Chinese Restaurants around to choose from at a much more tasteful flavor, amount of food and price. read more

We just moved here & wanted Chinese food. We walked into LeAnn Chin and turned right back around... it looked like a Panda Express. No. There aren't too many choices around here, and we wanted something less corporate & fast food like. We called 88 Wok after seeing a few great reviews online. Everything we received looks & tastes amazing and is fresh. It was delivered very quickly, and is very hot. The crab Rangoon is clearly homemade and not frozen. It also looks like their wontons are also homemade. Portions are great for 2 people. Wish there was a little more sauce on our orange chicken... but that's because we are sauce people. Overall: Great value Could use a bit more flavor, specifically the orange chicken (could be a bit more orange-y) Crab Rangoon 5/5 stars Soup was delicious Delivery was great read more

Great food! Speedy service. I could see how some of the reviews said they were rude, but I think it's just a language barrier. They weren't rude At all, just quiet. There was someone taking an order while we were waiting and they called for someone else to come help us right away. No wait. Delicious food. read more

I don't know why yelp gives this takeout 4 dollar signs. It's inexpensive to me. Best gen tsos chicken I've had maybe ever. Great fried rice. This style of egg rolls rock too. I'm definitely coming back. read more

Love this place. Large menu, food is always hot and made to order, and they always have coupons. Haven't had anything here we didn't like!

Don't waste your money here. I ordered the beef lo Mein and the beef was terrible. I picked it all out because I didn't want to get sick from eating it. I also ordered the moo shoo pork and that was okay, it had good flavor but I've ever had better. The cheese wontons were the only really good thing on the menu. There's much better Chinese restaurants. read more

Andover went a long time without any Chinese options. Now they have a few, but Wok 88 is my top choice. I feel like we end up getting Chinese take-out at least once every time I'm in town (my mom lives in Andover). Wok 88 has delivery - which is a nice perk. The delivery driver is SO nice and arrives fairly quickly. Another huge plus is the vegetarian options on the menu. There are plenty of tofu-and-veggie-filled options, which makes me a happy camper. I especially like the sesame tofu, veggie lo mein and broccoli in garlic sauce. (Great sized portions, too!) read more

If I could give 0 stars, I would. This place had very rude people working. They didn't have any soy sauce in the display, so I kindly asked for some. He held it above my hand and aggressively dropped it, thus having it go all over the counter, then saying "got it?" Before walking away. The girl who took my order was rolling her eyes and sighing trying to give me my total before I was done ordering. I got 2 items. This was the second and last time I came here. The first time was no different. But we tried to give them the benefit of the doubt. I will not be coming back and I would suggest it to nobody. Way overpriced for these rude people and disappointing food. read more

UPDATE I have ordered it again but it was just ok. I guess I was too hungry when I ate it first time lol and kinda pricy for large one. $10.70.. it was better if price was around $8. I ordered shrimp noodle (lo mei?) noodle is good but I dont like fried rice. not strong flavor and i can taste a little bot of garlic. noodle, fried rice, 1 egg roll and 1 can of soda i think total was like $10. I will order ONLY NOODLE NEXT TIME!!! I DONT LIKE THEIR FRIED RICE read more

88 Wok Chinese Restaurant - Chinese Near Me - Andover, Minnesota

We found a large piece of metal in our chicken fried rice! It busted off of one of their wok spoons. I mailed it to them along with the receipt and asked them for an apology and a gift card for the cost of the food that we had to throw out. They never called or mailed me back. Health hazard and worst customer service ever! read more

I've ordered from here maybe two or three times before and it was "ok" for this area due to the choices being slim to none. Tonight I ordered the Happy Meal H18 with a substitution of VEGETABLE Fried Rice and it was delivered with Shrimp Fried rice. My receipt also reflected shrimp. I politely called them to let them know that I had NOT ordered Shrimp Fried rice and that I don't even eat shrimp. The guy that answered the phone said he had to wait for the delivery man to come back to "verify" what i said. Long story short, he called back & said that I had ordered shrimp so since it was my fault they could offer me a Free meal next time. I declined and let them know I didn't appreciate them saying I ordered something that I HAD NOT. I NEVER EAT SHRIMP!! He then said he could bring me my correct order but I would need to provided them with the food I had with me still in the bag, as well as a little time to take care of previous orders made prior to my mishap - I agreed. 10 minutes later I realized it was 8 pm and I'm in a stage of not eating after 8pm. So I called them back, told them once again that I didn't appreciate them saying I ordered something that I HAD NOT & that I would not be able to enjoy my meal since it was after 8pm and I also let them know I was going straight to Yelp for my review. I will NOT ever order from them again, I'd rather drive 10-20 into Minneapolis for better Chinese food and service! read more

What is the deal with this place and celery? I had shrimp and pea pods. There were five shrimp, eight pea pods and what must have been a half pound of celery. Wife had Moo Goo Gai Pan which contained as the main ingredient, you guessed it, celery. Do they have relatives that grow the stuff? The other thing was just the blandness of flavor. Just nothing good to give them a second try. Looking for a new place after ChopStix closed up. I'll have to keep looking. read more

Just had the kung pao chicken, fried rice and vegetable egg rolls delivered the other day and it was delicious. It was only about 20 mins from the time I ordered it before it was at the door :) I'll definitely eat here again! read more

While my friend and I have been coming here for a while now with mixed reviews, today the two older women chefs out did themselves, that was the best egg roll I have ever had!! I am no youngster either. General Tso's was great, beef with mushrooms was tasty, not dry. Their fried rice was awesome, the happy meal is a good deal also. No complaints at all read more

Awesome job delivering on a Friday night less than 30 min till closing (which I felt super guilty doing)!!! I put my order in for crab rangoons, shrimp egg rolls, and pork mu shu at 10:08pm and it arrived at 10:30!!! Props! read more

If there were a way to do 3.5 stars, they'd get the extra 1/2 star. Just not quite enough for 4 whole stars. It's located in a strip mall off Bunker Lake Boulevard. To be honest, I can see it being fairly easy to overlook as I did for the first few years they were there. The key draw to me was, they deliver. And the driver has always been timely, extremely polite and seemed genuinely nice. They have all the regular standard fare of 99% any other Chinese take out place. But, 88 Wok is more hit than miss. The things I've had that I liked, I loved. The things I ordered that were mediocre, were pretty damned 'bleh'. I'll do a quick list of items I've had. The fried shrimp were middle of the road. Not horrible, but didn't stick out. Fried dumplings are good. The house special fried rice (lots of veggies & meat) is generally very good (although I have found another place locally that tops it). The Singapore mai fan is good. Although it seems with mai fan, it's really hard to screw up since it's been virtually identical every place I've ever had it. The pork egg foo young at 88 Wok is the best I've had. The texture, gravy and flavor are outstanding. Chicken with curry, Mongolian beef and Szechuan beef are all very good. The Hunan beef, roast pork w/ garlic are both middle of the road and somewhat bland. The pan fried noodles were virtually tasteless. It even looked flavorless. With the exception of the broccoli, the noodles and chicken were almost a stark white. Like they actually sucked the flavor out of it intentionally. Overall, for your run of the mill local Chinese take out, 88 Wok is definitely better than average. And the delivery is a nice bonus in the suburbs. read more

Good food for a very low price. You can find better Chinese food, but you'll have a hard time beating the value and convenience of 88 Wok.

Distinctly better than nearby Chinese options. Understand this is a 3 1/2 star north suburb cheap Chinese rating--they wouldn't get that in Minneapolis. The two best dishes I've had are the pork fried rice (very not-greasy and with actual visible pork chunks) and the pan fried dumplings (filling of actual meat). The chicken dishes are kind of weird and I didn't really love the beef either. read more

Wok 88 had great food when it opened, but now the meat they use in their dishes appears to be over-processed meat product vs. fresh ingredients. The chicken in their fried rice is an incredibly odd texture and rubbery. The pork resembles something closer to "mystery meat" that one would see in their elementary school lunch line. Again, this place used to be good, so it's disappointing that it's gone downhill the last few times we've ordered from there. After giving them the benefit of the doubt a few times, I don't think we'll be going back. read more

You can tell a lot about a Chinese restaurant if you look at their rice and Wonton soup. The Wonton soup broth here was excellent. Their rice is steamy and moist, not the usual dry kind you find at other place. There aren't a ton of decent Chinese places North of the twin cities, but this one has hit the spot every time. read more

Place is awful. Dumplings had cartilage and bone on the first bite and we're a nasty brown color. I don't think they actually make anything there, just heat it or nuke it. I posted a picture. It's about as authentic as a gas station cheeseburger but those can taste good. read more

88 Wok Chinese Restaurant - Their dumplings look like this. Yes that is a piece of cartilage and bone. - Chinese Near Me - Andover, Minnesota

Disappointing. First time ordered here, online and they weren't busy at the time. The scallop dish had 3 tiny scallops and mushrooms although I ordered without. Got veg egg rolls instead of meat. Broccoli had the wrong sauce. Peking ravioli's undercooked. Worst pork fried rice ever had. Overall this place sucks. read more

The food here is wonderful. A littler on the spendy side but excellent food and they usually have coupons avaliable. I would recommend.
