    Hong Kong Chicken (lunch)

    Food is always fresh and delicious. Lunch portions are just right and place is very clean.

    We got hot wok to go and were very pleased. Their wonton and egg drop soups were very tasty. My girlfriend and I also got Kung POW chicken and and sesame chicken. They were both great as well.

    Hot Wok did not disappoint!! We ordered takeout recently and were really pleased with the overall cost, timeliness, and most importantly, taste! We'll certainly be ordering from Hot Wok again in the future. Loved my Kung Pao dish and wonton soup!

    Okay either I was in the wrong building or everyone who gave this place a good review hasn't had good Chinese food before. No offense but this place was just gross! I started with crab ragoons because I love them, I did not love these! The filling tasted like garlic (not what I was expecting) and the outside was just way to thick. I ordered sesame chicken because the picture on the menu looked good, bad choice again. The sauce was a light orange to yellow color instead or the brown it should be and it tasted weird. The poor girl working was answering two lines on the phone and waiting on all the tables, she was way to busy. She was trying her best but it was just to much for one person. I do not plan on going back to this place but I always say try things yourself before listening to others. I hope you have a better experience then I did.

    Stopped in this little restaurant today for lunch. It's primarily Chinese cuisine, but also has some Thai, Japanese and Korean influences. It's in a new strip center behind the Wal Mart in Ft. Wright. Clean, comfortable place with table service and take out available. Lots of menu choices; we had Schezuan Shrimp and Kung Pao Chicken. Each was served with choice of white or fried rice. Both were very tasty and had many fresh vegetables: zucchini, mushrooms, baby corn, onions, etc. The Kung Pao Chicken also contained peanuts which my husband didn't particularly care for, but I thought it was fine. The bill for two lunch entrees, a water and an iced tea was only $12.50. Very reasonable, I thought. We were plenty full. One of the owners stopped by to make sure everything was ok and she said they own a few other locations in Northern Kentucky: First Wok in Erlanger, Asian Wok in Cold Spring and Golden Wok in Burlington. According to their web site, they have been in the restaurant business locally since 1995.

    The steamed wontons and fried rice seem like they were purchased from Sam's or Costco and just heated up.

    They have the best sesame chicken. The service is amazing and it's very clean. They also have takeout which comes in handy.

    A coworker and I were just a few blocks down the road when lunch time hit and we wanted something…read morequick and easy. After a search on Yelp we landed on Thai Pavillion and I'm so glad we did. Here's why... 1) I ordered on their website and it was a very seamless process. I liked that we were even able to select how spicy we wanted our food on a number scale. 2) The pick up time was not long after we ordered, even with it being in the middle of the busy lunch hour. 3) There's parking directly out front so I was able to simply pull up, throw my flashers on, and run in. It was there waiting for me when I arrived. 4) We both ordered the same thing, the pad Thai (spice level 1) with shrimp. We also shared an order of vegetable spring rolls. It came out to about $50 and that included a $5 tip. We both really liked what we got, but I'll stick with my specific opinion. The spring rolls were crispy and definitely hit the spot as an appetizer. As for the pad Thai, it was a great portion size, the spice level was exactly what I wanted, and the shrimp were perfectly cooked. It didn't have an overwhelming amount of bean sprouts, which was appreciated. The sauce was rich in flavor and the noodles were just right. We both agreed that we would order from here again. It was the best pad Thai I've had in a while. Definitely give them a try!

    I ordered the Royal Seafood for take out. Spice level 2 yesterday. Level 3 today…read more Delicious. Also got the spring rolls. Very nice. Only waited 5 minutes both days. Super friendly.

    My family and I have dined here about 5 times in the last 3 months, and this is one of our favorite…read morerestaurants in NKY to fill our wide range of Asian food cravings. The restaurant is quaint, yet open, and totally family friendly. Servers are warm and courteous, even when they are slammed during peak dinner time (6:30-8). You get to choose from a Japanese and Thai menu, which contain a wide selection of equally delicious dishes, including fresh Sushi. You get 3 good restaurants in 1! Some dishes we've tried multiple times and recommended based on balanced flavors and consistency are: THAI: Spicy basil pork- has sweet scent of holy basil and abundant sauce. Our favorite to pour over rice. Papaya salad- full of flavor, but be conservative on your spice level selection ranging from 1-10. If you want "medium" spice, go with 2/3. Panang curry- you can choose your meat, but it's traditionally served with beef, which I think it's the best pairing as well. You can never go wrong with Thai curry, unless you order above your spice level ;) Pad see ew- stir fried wide rice noodles, also known as soy sauce noodles, comes with your choice of meat and veggies. Kids love it because noodles are soft and sauce is sweet. Crowd pleaser. JAPANESE: Katsu don- crispy chicken or pork cutlet drenched in sweet & salty sauce mixed with scrambled eggs and caramel used onions served over rice in a bowl. Total comfort Salmon teriyaki- great, nutritionally balanced meal with perfectly grilled salmon basted with teriyaki sauce over rice, and a side of shredded and steamed carrots and zucchini. Never regret ordering this. APPS: shrimp shumai and miso soup SUSHI: Cincy roll, spicy yellowtail, salmon nigiri As you can see, there are a lot of good options here. Go with a bigger group and dine family style to get the most out of your visit.

    Great food. They have a Thai and a Japanese/sushi menu-- be sure to look at both…read more Food was really good and brought out quickly. Spicy 4 was just at my limit; recommend a 3 so you can taste the other spices. We felt a bit overdresssed; other guests very casual. Not a fancy place. Toilet pipes exposed and covered with blue crystals; kinda gross.
