The food is so good and they are very generous with their portion size. The price is also cheap. The restaurant was a bit empty and quiet when I came in but I guess it was because most people do to-go order instead. The atmosphere was nice though. read more

D Wok Express - Chinese Near Me - Houston, Texas

Tried for the first time and totally regret it. The food smelled awful and tasted worse. Wontons, egg roll and shrimp were burned or cooked in dirty oil. Mongolian beef had an awful smell and tasted strange. Threw it out in fear of getting sic. read more

Just ordered D Wok for home delivery. If you're looking for "Basic Chinese food " this is a good choice in the Spring Branch area. Everything was plentiful and arrived hot. Pepper Steak was more steak than pepper, onions and carrots. A plus in my view. 8/10 Sweet & Sour Pork was not too breaded and the sweet sauce not too sweet. 9/10 Shrimp Fried Rice was some of the better I've had recently. Good flavor and the right amount of shrimp. 10/10 Lemon Pepper Chicken Wings were on steroids (huge) but something was off. Maybe the oil was old. 4/10 Overall, not bad. I do wish they featured soups on the DoorDash menu. Give them a try. read more

Cheese puffs were perfect, hot and crispy, exactly what I was craving. Soup broth was warm and comforting, full of flavor. Excellent service, quick, friendly and accommodating. Atmosphere is warm and intimate, all booth seating. read more

D Wok Express - Chinese Near Me - Houston, Texas

I went to D Wok Express one night and I didn't like my first impression - not a single Chinese character on the menu nor on the wall; nada, zilch, not even a Chinese painting. I thought 'uh oh'. After stripping out my usual expectations in Chinese food, this was just a-OK for me. My first visit, when I was about to order, their phone rang. That was a long phone order. The clock was ticking. Then, I asked another lady for help, the phone rang again. At this time, I was there nearly 15 minutes and still not ordered yet. After she hung up the phone, she told me that I need to wait 10-15 minutes for the food, "this is not a fast food restaurant. Everything has to be made to order." I replied, "Don't worry about it. I'll come back tomorrow". So, I kept my word and went back the next day. I had to make sure I had enough time to dine in. I immediately ordered vegetable chopsuey, wonton soup and a hot tea. The tea came in a small teapot and a coffee cup with distorted Chinese printing. The soup was served in a cereal bowl with fried wonton strips in a cafeteria-style soup bowl. The rice was in another cafeteria-style soup bowl. I was looking at the mixed matched utensils and melamine dinnerware on my table. I thought, "oh boy, this would not be the place to have your first date." The Food - * Tea was bland because the lukewarm water couldn't brew the tea bag. *Failed* * Wonton was good and broth tasted just right. However, I don't know what the wonton strips were for. I almost sprinkle some sugar on top to make myself a desert. * Steamed rice was fluffy and aromatic. *Excellent* * Chopsuey was the challenge part - Broccoli was so hot and it burned my tongue. Other vegetables were less hot. Celery had pineapple-flavored sweetness on it. Sugar peas were crunchy. Flavor on the sauce was pretty good, without any traces of MSG. It was nice to chat with staff about some interesting demographic info. Their clientele is mostly Spanish-speaking customers and rarely seeing Asians. She was bragging about their best selling point - the volume. I complimented on the photos of the "all day lunch specials" being a good value. For only $6.99, it comes with entree, fried rice, egg roll and a canned soda. It's discounted at $6.49, if you ordered by 4 pm. read more

Awful. The worst customer service and dirty storefront = dirty kitchen. I would settle for panda and avoid this place at all costs.

I've finally found a delicious Chinese restaurant! This place has very fresh and quality food. The front lady was super nice and friendly. I love supporting local businesses, and they have just earned a loyal customer! read more

I tried this place because I wanted a particular dish that the other Chinese restaurant didn't have on Gessner. I ordered chicken and vegetables and it came with a spring roll and for $1.00 extra egg drop soup. It was good but my only beef was the fact the container was over spilling with sauce. It was so bad it was at the bottom of the bag. The service was fast and quick but next time I don't want a bag soaked with sauce. If I want to try this place again I will just another dish that isn't a mess. read more

I ordered on yesterday. My family orders from here all the time! Was very disappointed on yesterday though. My husband works the night shift. I ordered a wonton soup. He took it to work for his lunch. Found a roach in the soup. I have a picture of it! And I'm thinking of calling the health department! Just sickening!!! I need my money back or I'm calling! read more

D Wok Express - a spoon in a bowl of soup - Chinese Near Me - Houston, Texas

I'm covering for my friend's receptionist for a couple of weeks while I find some full-time work, so I get to explore and discover new lunch places in the Memorial area for the time being. I wanted to find a close, quick, delicious and affordable lunch option. And since I was eating alone (which is pretty rare), I wanted something unhealthy :) I Googled a few places close by and saw that this place was not only Americanized Chinese (I love!), but fit the criteria that I wanted. So off I went! 3 minutes later, I arrive at a strange place with pictures of their food posted everywhere. I walked in and immediately saw a To-Go window for quick pick-up for customers who called in. I sat down at one of the 8 tables inside and waited for someone to take my order. BTW, their lunch special runs all day, every day! Just pay a little more if it's after 4:00 pm. So, the lady who took my order (who was also running the cash register, answering the phones and giving the pick-up customers their food) was pretty busy, so I had to wait a few minutes before being able to place an order. I decided to go with the lemon chicken, to which the waitress said, "You mean sweet and sour?" (they're actually next to each other on the same line in the menu) "No... lemon chicken?" "Oh okay... we can do that for you." I was kinda confused because she made it seem like an off-menu item when it was right there. She quickly left and attended to other things. When I got my food, my jaw dropped. A HUGE platter of freshly-fried chicken. I literally only ate half and took the rest to go. I was kinda disappointed about the fried rice... rice, soy sauce, and maybe one bit of egg? But it wasn't the worst I've had. The chicken was freshly fried, juicy with a perfectly thin layer of batter that stayed crunchy throughout the entire meal. I could've done without the artificially-sweet lemony sauce. Maybe I should've ordered the sweet and sour after all. The lunch special also came with a fried spring roll, which was delicious and also fresh. All of that food, plus a soda for $6.49. Really, not a bad deal at all. And I didn't realize this until after the menu was taken away, but if you add $.50, I guess you can also get soup and/or a wonton? Something like that. Since there was only one lady doing everything, she was pretty busy and distracted, and was short on a few occasions. But I don't really expect to be treated like a queen at a hole in the wall, especially one owned by Asians. All the criteria I wanted was, for the most part, fulfilled, and I will happily come back before my couple of weeks working in the area is over. read more

They're probably the best tasting delivery Chinese food around the area where I stay. However, they tend to have issues with delivery like, correctly inputting credit card information then not allowing you to have delivery again as if it was your fault. Today it was not delivering the spring rolls with the orders. Then, after calling immediately to ask about the missing food and being give the option to either have money refunded or food delivered again and choosing the latter, being told that it will take another 30-45mins for 2 damn spring rolls. Like really? I live less than 5miles drone here. Can't someone just walk them over? Geeze Also, they basically give all the vegetables and barely protein when you order things like shrimp and broccoli like I did. read more

D Wok Express - Exactly 7 shrimp and an overload of broccoli...smh. - Chinese Near Me - Houston, Texas

yikes they serve cockroaches within your meal! yesterday my coworker eat half her order and find a cockroach was cooked within her lunch! seriously, they offered to cook a fresh batch, she ask for a full refund! read more

Went to lunch with my sister one day and stopped by this place. It's a small quaint place. Owners were friendly. I ordered the pan fried potstickers( were delicious) and my sister ordered the po-po platter. It came with a fried shrimp, chicken wing, crab Rangoon, chicken in a stick. Everything was horrible on this platter. My sister couldn't eat it. We ordered the teriyaki chicken and combo fried rice. The Teriyaki chicken was basically grilled chicken with Teriyaki sauce poured in it. The chicken was dry. The only item we enjoyed was the Combo fried rice. In all we spend close $50 and was disappointed with our experience read more

I'm so glad I moved to this area. I love this place. Really nice people with GREAT FOOD!! The takeout process was so easy and the delivery charge was only $1.50. The food was fantastic. No over exaggeration. I'm sold on D Wok Express and it's my new spot for Chinese. read more

I downloaded Yelp just to be able to review this place! My kids & I decided we wanted to order in Chinese tonight & since I got a new menu in today, I figured we'd give it a go instead of ordering from our normal place since you got free items for ordering over a certain amount. We ordered the Combination Lo Mein, Sweet & Sour Chicken, Sesame Chicken, Ragoons, Tempura Shrimp, and Fried Shrimp. The Combination Lo Mein, Sesame Chicken, and the Fried Rice (comes w/ meals) all had no flavor & was very bland. The Sweet & Sour Chicken was over cooked. I'm still waiting on them to come back to bring the forgotten tempura shrimp. The Ragoons were good & my Daughter hasn't complained about the Fried Shrimp, so I think those are okay. We definitely won't be returning. $50 and only about $10 of it is edible & about $9 of it wasn't even brought the first time around. ** update - just got the tempura Shrimp, over an hour after the rest of the food came ... cold. ** read more

I spent 60.00 at this location and and I was really disappointed with the quality of the food . My food was soggy and fried rice looked like they doused white rice with soy sauce . I don't like leaving bad reviews but this place definitely deserves one . Even my fortune cookies were stale . Two stars for the one thing they did get right . The egg rolls . read more

Stumbled on this place a about a week ago, and couldn't be more thrilled. Since moving to the west side, I'd been looking for an Asian place that was good, fast, and reasonably priced. D Wok checks all three boxes. The food was delicious! Hardly any complaints at all. My only complaint, albeit a minor one, was not being able to pay online for a to-go order. read more

Express...well that about sums it up. You get what you pay for. Now, I have eaten many things from low price diners that knocked my socks off, I don't need fancy smancy to get my grub on. Unfortunately I won't be back. I read the reviews as all good Yelpers do and found this place close to me where I was running errands. My order was correct, the lady was very nice and sweet. The only good thing I thought was the Hot/Sour soup, warmed my cockles. I ordered the beef lo mein, asked for it spicy. I got it spicy but nothing else with it. There really was no taste to it, I know it was fresh as I waited about 15 minutes for it and when I got home it was still very very hot. Sadly only saw lo mein, and a smidgeon of beef. Also order chicken wings just as I am not big on rolls, they were greasy and had a bit of coconut taste to them, but hey, they are chicken wings, I know what to expect. It was nice to try, but I didn't finish the meal, and if you know me......I usually NEVER purposely not finish food, unless I just don't really like it. Maybe I am just spoiled as close to my home (not from Houston) there is a Bo Ling, non chain restaurant, whose Lo Mein makes you want to change your last name to Lee, Ying or Gu-fuud. Still measuring it up against that place as well as FuFu cafe in Chinatown in Houston. 2 stars as the Lady was very nice. read more

Been meaning to try this place since I moved to the area 9 months ago and they did not disappoint. I had an orange chicken lunch special and it was hot and ready in about 5 minutes. It was so good! I'll definitely be returning. read more

Had the kids FRIED chicken wings delivered and received a large platter of boiled chicken wings . I called to see if they could deliver the correct order and take mine back, I wasn't asking for money back. The lady on the phone wasn't understanding me correctly and was yelling over the line to come back tomorrow. Lol. Then she told me to die and F me. I'm am 100% not even joking!!! This really happened. Who does this. What kind of customer service is this?? read more

One of my favorite places to get kung pao shrimp from! Their steamed rice is also very tasty. Service is very quick and they also deliver!

I love this place!!! It's the only Chinese delivery I order. I've been ordering here for over a year, food and service is always excellent! Service: extremely friendly over the phone, even remember the regulars Food: always hot when delivered and consistently delicious Price: cheap and you get a lot for your money Order here, you'll thank me later :) read more

The lady taking my order over the phone was so rude! First she stated that they did not take debit/credit card as a form of payment and then after I told her that I was able to pay cash, she decided that they didn't deliver to where I live... I told her that we have ordered delivery several occasions from them without any issues but she just said she didn't know and just hung up on me! Food wasn't even that good anyways. read more

Poorly cooked everything. Just moved near and was very disappointed. I go pick up from another chinese restaurant instead of using these guys who deliver. read more

I can't deny that I've been back on a regular basis. I wanted to try them once more to see if they fixed the hair in food issue and they DID! Although the customer service is hit or miss, I don't mind because the food hits the spot. read more

Great food! I called in my order. Even though the lady couldn't speak the best English she did her best to accommodate me, and helped me decide what I wanted to order and I appreciated that. I got the Cajun shrimp w fried rice. Very tasty! read more

Good service, good food,.good prices. Have came here many times and have no complaints whatsoever.

Extremely good Chinese...Simply generous with serving sizes food(filled to top)and worth every penny. They have all the dishes you expect from a Chinese Food..but with a twist. Examples:Fried Pot-stickers, with a Ginger wine dipping sauce...SATE, and Really good Mongolian Beef. The Chicken wing Appetiser was literally a Quartered Chicken, Ginger Battered in a Light Crispy..not greasy order that filled a LARGE size TOGO Container...this was truly unique as we expected the usual small wings and Things size chicken..was enough for an Entree...and very GOOD! I highly recommend trying this food, and take advantage of their Coupons for ordering $20, $30, $40...very impressive. Give it a try..I think you will be happy with your order. I pride myself in trying new places, and often find a Jewel..this is one of them. Very reasonable prices, really fresh food, and the sizes are generous. Mongolian Beef SATE Beef Kung Pow Chicken House Special Fried Rice Chicken Wings Pot-stickers Green beans Plan on trying everything on menu, as I asked the person on Phone what was good and they did not let me down. read more

This is my favorite restaurant in town. I order from here everyday. The food is good and the service is nice

Very good Chinese food. We had the General Tso's Chicken and the Sesame Chicken as well as crab puffs and fried rice. (Had to check out the basics you know). All the ingredients were very fresh and tasty. I love crab puffs and these did not disappoint! I'm looking forward to checking out more menu items. This place has only been open for a couple of weeks and did not jump out at us when we went looking for hit. It is located right next to El AHorra mexican grocery at Blalock and Kempwood. read more

These people have the worst customer service in the world! The food is ok but the service is horrible. This lady can barely speak English and kept hanging up in my face on purpose. Never ordering here again. read more

I had been there a few times before but this time I was very disappointed. I usually got the combo with lo-mein instead of the fried rice but this time when I asked for lo-mein instead of the fried rice they said there would be a $3.50 charge where I had usually only paid an extra dollar and when when I got the check they also charged a $1 for the can of soda that was usually included in the price of the combo meal. Well needless to say the old woman that was there tonight didn't get the usual 20% tip I normally would leave. When I asked if there was a change in management she denied it but the young girl that usually took my order was not there this time. I probably won't be going back there any time soon. I guess I'll be going back to either the China One or the Empress Restaurant which is only about 1/2 a mile further for me to travel. read more
