I have been to this place a couple of times. More often when it opened and much less since.
When it opened, it was basically revolutionary. Gothenburg needed something like this. It needed a real decent Asian buffet restaurant. It had some stunning Peking duck,some amazing crab and lobster and a number of other fine Asian dishes. But that was only in the beginning. I came here often in the first few weeks.
Then, everyone else discovered it. These days it tends to be pretty crowded. Gone are all the amazing expensive dishes. All other dishes have pretty been watered down and localized. They have won mass appeal and so there's nothing needed to attract the crowds anymore. Such a pity that they have dropped their standards in this way.
The restaurant itself is a bit cramped. The chairs are so wide and heavy and there's not much walking space between tables. Could be a fire hazard.
If you're looking to just fill yourself up on average Asian food for a decent price and don't care for much else, welcome to Göteborg Wok. They have Mongolian BBQ, unfresh sushi, a variety of "Chinese" dishes, some dim sum, dessert etc. what they're lacking in quality, they supposedly make up for in quantity.
Had they kept their opening standards, my review would surely have been a four or five star. read more
