Food is fire. Beef broccoli with fried rice for just $10? And comes with a spring roll too? Say less. Quintessential Chinese - American food. Salty + sweet flavor profile but nothing too overbearing. Would definitely order here again! read more

China Wok - 71. Beef with Broccoli - Chinese Near Me - Madison, Wisconsin

Horrible. Absolutely horrible. The food was mushy and I'm sure the fried rice was frozen. The Egg Rolls were all dough and tasteless without any visible filling. The Szechuan Chicken was mushy and the rice tasted like it was freezer burned. I'm still not sure the chicken was real meat. Then again, I didn't eat enough to find out. The texture of all of the veggies and the chicken were the same...mush. It was the consistency of wet oatmeal. *****Trigger warning***** The chicken had the consistency of mucus from a seriously bad cold. The Vegetable Fried Rice was gross. The veggies were overcooked and the rice tasted like a wet ball of chemical mush. This was my go to for a fast meal but unfortunately, that's changed. Inedible. I tossed it in the trash. read more

Great food as always, tonight I am going to try the pu pu platter I've heard from friends that it is amazing!

Even though China Wok is a little further away from me than the other " XXXXX China" place, I've had better food from here than the other. Service is about the same for both. However the food is much better. The other place is too salty. Plain white rice has smelled bad. China Wok at this location has not disappointed. IF a mistake happens they quickly and happily correct it. read more

Fav quick Asian takeout spot. I always stop on the way home from the airport. I love hot & sour soup, fried dumplings, chicken chow mein & beef w/broccoli. read more

This place is super efficient in making accurate orders and getting them to you timely. If I'm going for flavor I would probably lean towards a competitor but if It's later and I'm out of options it's a strong choice. Food will satisfy the craving but can be bland at times. read more

Solid Chinese food with large portions for a reasonable price! Highly recommend as a carryout place. Fast ordering as well.

It seems to me that they must have changed management. My wife and I have been eating at China Wok for more than 23 years. We aet there 2-3 times a month. Last week we ordered a few things. We ordered Cashew shrimp in white sauce, general tso and soup. We received cashew shrimp in a brown sauce, the general tso combo platter which comes with pork fried rice. We had the order delivered. When we received the order, the combo platter was mostly rice with egg in it and no pork, the chicken was a few pieces on top, almost no sauce and not spice to it. The cashew shrimp was in a brown sauce. We called about the cashew shrimp. They said they will mark it down and we would get a fee one next time we ordered. I decided to stop there 2 days later and nobody knew what we were talking about. They eventualy gave me a replacement order of the cashew shrimp. When I told them about the General TSO combo plater, they said there must have been a mix up with my order. Today I stopped by and ordered the General TSO combo Platter, crab Rangoon and some rice soup. The General TSO was on a bed of rice like previously, it didn't have any spice to it and since the chicken was on a bed of rice there wasn't many pieces of chicken on the order. The soup was cold and my wife said it didn't have much flavor. We each ate a crab rangoon and threw the rest in the trash. It just was not good. The egg rolls are no longer the same size as before either. They are only at best 2/3 the size they used to be. We gave them a second chance, I guess this is how they are conducting their business now. It used to be the best Chinese in Madison. I don't think we are going to eat there again. I will be looking for another restaurant to buy our Chinese food from. read more

Exactly what we were looking for. Tasty, quick, well packaged! Good value and definitely ordering again soon!

I am visiting Madison, WI for an 8-day stay, and am staying at the new Hotel Indigo on East Washington Ave. Yesterday (Sept. 25), as lunchtime neared, I started craving Chinese food, and, after having done a bit of research online on the best Chinese restaurants in Madison, I went online and ordered a lunchtime meal from this restaurant for delivery to me at my hotel. Among other items (I am a big believer in ordering lots of Chinese food so that I can put leftovers in the fridge) that I ordered, I ordered, if my memory serves me correctly, the following (a partial list follows): fried dumplings, extra white rice, shrimp egg foo yung, a big bunch of egg rolls, and fried rice. When I placed and paid for the delivery order online, the delivery website stated, quite reasonably, particularly because it was lunchtime on a weekday, that the estimated delivery time would likely be about 55 to 65 minutes from the time I placed the order. I was quite pleasantly surprised when the hotel's front desk called me only 26 minutes later to tell me that the driver from China Wok had already arrived bearing my bag of food! Amazing! (Of course, I went downstairs immediately, gave the driver a tip, and grabbed my bag of food!) Well, all of the food turned out to be great, and much as I had planned, I ended the meal with a ton of leftovers to put in the fridge in my room. In fact, I ate some of those leftovers for my lunchtime meal today! Best of all, I still have sufficient leftovers in the fridge for one more meal (likely tomorrow's lunch...!). All of the food that I ordered turned out to be of very high quality, was very tasty, and also tasted very fresh. I will, of course, be placing more hotel delivery orders from China Wok during the remainder of my stay here in Madison! This is a great Chinese restaurant! Finally, I must admit that I am still stunned that their driver managed to deliver my meal only 26 minutes after I had placed the order online, despite the fact that I had placed the order at lunchtime on a weekday! read more

Good Food! Had the General Two's chicken, crab Rangoon and beef lo mein delivered to my hotel. Expected it to take 60-75 minutes but arrived in 45. Food was hot, well prepared and met expectations. Best General T's I've had in awhile! read more

Food was great, fresh and flavorful. Not too greasy, and nothing we tried tasted bland. The family and I were able to enjoy some great fried rice, peppered steak, pork lo mein and General Tso's chicken. Moving from Milwaukee, this is a major step up. If you want good and fast Chinese food with flavor, check this place out! read more

You know how you see a picture of food at a restaurant, you order it, only to have what is put on your plate barely resemble what you saw in the picture? Well, you don't have to worry about this at China Wok. What you get as your meal looks even better than the pictures above their counter. I've dined at this carry out Chinese location numerous times over the past 2 years. My office is only a mile or so away and it makes for a quick meal. I must say, I feel like something has changed in the past year. When I used to go, I felt like no matter what I ordered, it all looked/tasted the same. (ie sauce, color, vegetables, etc) But for the past year or so, my coworker and I marvel at how great the food looks when it comes from the kitchen. We primarily dine in. We're practically giving each other high-fives, because we feel like we just scored big. And the flavor is just as good as it looks. I just ate at another carryout Chinese location and the quality of food reminded me how great China Wok is, so I jumped out to right this review. I regularly get Kung Pao Chicken or Mongolian Beef. My coworker exclusively gets General Tso's Chicken (this thing always looks amazing!) Value is always great...we can get both of our lunches, i usually add an egg roll (75 cents) and he usually gets a soda and it costs us around $12 for both of us. Quantity of food is also great. As you can tell, I highly recommend this place. Given it's a carryout Chinese place, I really should give it 5 stars for overcoming such an obstacle! read more

Thanks for the Chinese Delivery suggestion, Yelp! I ordered online using the Beyond Menu app, which was simple enough. Delicious food. I ordered the Moo Goo Gai Pan (see pic) and Egg Drop Soup. Delivery arrived on-time. Will order delivery from here again! read more

I quit patronizing this restaurant because the staff who answer the telephone have far too much trouble taking down ordering information - that is, telephone number, address, what I want, and my credit card number. That's everything I need them to know, and they can't get it right without me repeating myself, more than two times. read more

After having noodles at a number of other Asian places in town and always being disappointed I tried out China Wok and they didn't disappoint! My friend actually recommended I try this place out and I'm so glad I did. Great for takeout :) read more

Fast and very good dumplings. Clean food. Better than a lot of other fast food Chinese restaurants.

Overall an average stop. The place looked clean, was well lit and the staff was very nice. Then portion of my meal was large enough for 2 people. There was so much chicken and about 10 pieces of broccoli. So if you like leftovers or can eat enormous amounts of food give it a shot. The fried rice was bland. This is one of my favorite parts of the meal and this was a let down. No egg, carrot, etc... Just rice. Egg roll was average as well. If you're in the mood for Chinese and are nearby, stop in. Don't go too far to try it out though. They have indoor and outdoor seating. read more

Overall this place wasn't anything amazing. The food was just alright. The Lunch specials are very reasonably priced so that is nice. Food is also done very fast. I ordered the Hot & Spicy Chicken lunch special and it was alright. For supposedly being "hot" it was not to me. I do always try and keep in mind though that I prefer things spicier than the average person does. There were a lot of onions in the dish and the vegetable were still a little to raw for me. Them main thing that concerned me was about and hour after eating my lunch my stomach started to hurt. I have a sensitive stomach to greasy foods. If you do not it probably is not a problem but for me it can really be a pain. read more

Standard Americanized Chinese food, nearly the same menu as most other places. Convenient location between a few busy streets when you've just got a craving. Historically the hot and sour soup, as well as the egg drop soups are hot, soothing, and loaded with ingredients. Recently, the hot and sour soup was so gelatinous that parts of the what-would-be-liquid stood up on its own. So disturbing to imagine what it does to the body. Egg rolls and noodle dishes are more consistent. Though there are a couple of small tables inside the door, this is definitely a carry out joint for me. I call ahead to avoid standing in the very small entryway against the people in the tables. Really, a place like this doesn't need much more so it's fine. They offer periodic coupons in mailings and menu after the bill hits a certain amount, if you remember to bring them with you! read more

I've had the worst experience with China Wok and I refuse to recommend it to any friends. The food I received from China Wok was dry and tasteless. I ordered the vegetable Lo mein with egg rolls. It arrived room temperature. In addition, the delivery man left menus strewn about the lobby of our apartment complex. It was unprofessional and annoying to other residents of our building. I won't order from here again, ever. read more

Ordered delivery for dinner. Got beef chow mein. The food was so dry. No taste. No flavor. So bland. :/ Also the delivery took more than 1 hour. Have to say I won't be ordering here again. read more

Three items were ordered for delivery. Delivery was on time. Two items, beef fried rice and beef with hot curry were quite satisfactory. However, the sesame beef (supposedly a "chef's special") was HORRIBLE. The meat used was not steak, but some very inferior cut of beef, almost INEDIBLE. For the price charged, this poor low-grade meat quality is INEXCUSABLE. read more

I ordered delivery from this place. It took them about 40 min to deliver, which I think is a standard. Well, the food was alright - didn't wow me and my friend, but we didn't complain about it either. I liked the fact that they serve not overly greasy chinese. We ordered pork chop suey, mixed vegetable, and beef with snow peas. All of them tasted good without making my guts feel nauseous. One thing my friend and I didn't know - so in Midwest (or in Madison only?) "chow mein" is not a noodle dish .... . So make sure to order "Lo mein" if you want that noodle dish. Chow mein is chop suey. I swear it's not like that in California! read more

China Wok is my go-to delivery place for basic Chinese. When I just want some moderately priced food that will get here fast, fill my belly with warm and comforting Asiatic foodstuffs, this is who I turn to. I can't speak for its authenticity or service, but I can speak for how often I find myself hungry, cold, and ordering from China Wok's online delivery system. I don't generally care for Sweet & Sour anything. That's not real food! Have you seen that toxic-waste colored, gelatinous red sauce? That can't be good for you. But on a friend's recommendation, I tried it from China Wok. It's delicious. Somehow the battered and fried chicken had not become soggy during delivery, and I found it was insanely addictive over pork fried rice. (I like their fried rice- not too greasy. But it seems to turn bitter when you re-heat it the next day.) Decent dumplings, and my BF seems to enjoy the spare ribs, since those are the only two things he ever orders from there. The sauce that comes with those dumplings is pretty awesome I must say. I also enjoy the crab rangoons, though they are the very creamy kind with almost no actual crab meat. Ask me if I care. Because I don't. Really, I've probably had 75% of the menu by now, and nothing really sticks out as "not good." Though once we tried the Teriyaki Chicken and found it to be pretty dry. Who knows if that is how it usually is, since we only tried it once. What business did we have ordering Japanese food from a Chinese place anyway? They are reliable, fairly priced, good size portions, hot when it arrives, completely non-threatening Chinese. If I wanted authentic Chinese cuisine, I'd be going somewhere for dine-in, not carry out. China Wok delivers, and makes my insides happy. read more

So far the best Chinese delivery we've had here in Madison. Their food is flavorful, fresh, and not super-greasy. They also have an online menu to order from, which is amazing! It makes life simple, and I don't have to worry that I mispronounce something or said the wrong thing entirely. The only complaint I had is that while our food was steamy hot, the crab rangoons weren't. They were actually a little on the cool side. But, it's delivery, so that's not all that surprising. read more

Best Chinese food around! Great prices and on time, hot, delivery. I'm never disappointed.

Ordered beef and broccoli, crab rangoon, sweet and sour chicken, pork fried rice, and wonton egg drop soup. Everything was very good. This will now be my go-to place for Chinese take-out! read more

Tasty. Not too greasy, not too salty. Quick delivery. Fresh ingredients. Fast delivery... use the computer based ordering system... very efficient. Overall very good food and experience. read more

I live very nearby this restaurant, and when I moved into my apartment, I was so excited to have a Chinese place next door. I had high hopes, and they simply couldn't have fallen farther. I have ordered take out from here twice (well, they only have 1 table anyway), and it wins the award for worst Chinese food EVER. I had tofu mixed vegetables, which is my go-to. No. just no. The vegetables were not just mediocre quality, but clearly past their prime. I'm talking soggy, wilted, and literally, barely even edible. It was so bad, I couldn't even tolerate eating the rest of my meal. Again, in an attempt to force myself to like China Wok, I ordered from here a second, and final time, 2 weeks after. The food was still of poor quality.I had hoped it was an isolated incident, but the facts suggest otherwise. I am truly shocked there are so many positive reviews here. In conclusion, poor quality food, questionable sanitation, very very limited seating. Please, China Wok, if you read this, take a look at what you're serving as Tofu Mixed Veggies, or it's only a matter of time before the health department will look for you! read more

If they still had the General TSO from a few years ago I would give it 5 stars. I miss that recipe. The new recipe seems a little more bland than the one from a few years ago. Overall I have ordered food from them for many years and never had any issues. Quality food and service. read more

Do not eat here. Partner has gotten food poisoning twice from this location and I have once. Yesterday, she had the shrimp with lobster sauce, pork fried rice and an egg roll. One hour later, she came home with severe stomach cramps, got the shakes, and a fever. It lasted 12 hours. Classic food poisoning signs. Poor baby! The last time she got sick from there it was the other end. I have reported them myself last year. Partner reported this incident. Something is up with the Fordem Ave. place. Beware! And so very sorry for writing this but sometimes you just gotta. read more

Bad food and bad service!! I had ordered a spicy combination fried rice and lomein and it was not cooked all the way through, the steak was still bloody and the rice wasn't soft at all. I don't recommend eating here!! read more

Change in review! The food showed up late but I guess if you want the best you have to plan accordingly. The vegetables were super fresh and perfectly stir fried. The cashews actually had a "nut" taste with still some crunch, and the spicing was superb. Rice was cooked perfectly. The meat (chicken) in both dishes was cooked to perfection bringing the whole meal to an amazing completion with just the right amount of authentic heat. Truly a gem of Chinese take-outs. I'm not sure about the other Yelper reviews but suggest you give this place a chance. As someone who's lived in China, eaten Chinese take out from SF to OKC to NYC- it's worth the inexpensive prices! Good luck China Wok! read more

I had a very frustrating experience with this restaurant. I have ordered from this restaurant for 13 years. I enjoyed supporting a local business. In the earlier days, the food was always hot and would arrive quickly. In the last year, it has slowed down, and mistakes are occasionally made. However, because they are close and I've supported them for so long, I still continue to order from them periodically. Tonight, however, was a different experience. I ordered food online and the computer inserted the wrong address (but correct name and phone number). When I called an hour later, they said they already delivered the food. I realized it was to the wrong address when I looked at the online receipt. They told me it was my fault and they were unwilling to remake the order without me paying again. The incorrect address it was delivered to was a place of business. I called this business and asked what happened. They said the food was delivered there and was eaten - they told the driver it wasn't theirs, but the driver left the food there anyway. He never called me, even though he had my correct name and phone number. When I relayed this information to the restaurant, he said sarcastically "how do you know this? Do you work there now?" Shocked by this response, I said, "no, I called them, and they told me that they told the driver the food wasn't theirs." His response was, "Well it's your mistake". He was unwilling to do anything to help me, even though I had already paid for the food and given a 20% tip (over $90.00 total). I have never been treated like this by a business before. Even though this was half my fault for not catching the wrong address, they were unwilling to accept responsibility for their part in the mistake and were unwilling to remake the food (or even reimburse the tip) without me paying all over again. I will not be ordering from here again due to the way I was treated. I had shopped there, probably at least 40-50 times, in the last 13 years. It's unfortunate. read more

No vegetarian options, and staff always too busy and not personable.

It was all right. The vegetable egg roll was great. The fried rice was ok. I had chicken lo mein and the noodles & vegetables were good, but the meat was yuck. I'm not sure what it is... I think I should only order items that do NOT have meat in them when I go to restaurants, because I commonly end up unsatisfied with the meat and it ruins the whole meal. The checken was bland, tasteless, kind of gummy and some pieces were extremely gristly. The fortune cookies were the good kind :) and they gave my boyfriend real pancakes w/his order (moo shu pork I think?) He seemed to like his quite a bit. PS it was delivery, not eat-in, and the delivery time wasn't horrible, but not super great. read more
