    Order counter

    This was not very good. I ordered garlic chicken and it tasted like there was shrimp residue in it. I'm concerned that they don't clean the wok between dishes. My egg roll was bland and greasy. My husband's roasted barbecue pork tasted ok but some of the pork pieces tasted a bit rancid to me. I have had food from here many years ago and the food was good, this time it was pretty meh. Also the place needs some TLC - lots of wet ceiling tiles, grime on the floor, and the bathrooms were closed. I'd give them another shot if they cleaned up the restaurant.

    Bean curd w. Broccoli

    As a first timer here, I was really impressed with the food. I got the large portions of the general Tso tofu and the bean curd with broccoli. The sauces were amazing and everything was cooked perfectly. Some things you should know, they're currently only open for take out and they have a $10 credit card minimum. Most of the dishes are under $10 so you'll have to bring cash if you're only ordering one dish.

    The Hot wok has good food good portions. But that's about it the ordering is real tough many customers were coming back trying to get their food right. Unfortunately the person taking the orders cannot speak or talk very good English. Tried my best to understand but ended up getting the food anyway. It did turn out pretty good but the place could use an upgrade and communication could be a little better.

    Hot & Sour Soup lunch special portion
    Jennifer Y.

    I gave it a second shot because all my co-workers were getting lunch there. I ordered the same Hot n Sour soup which had zero hot and this time even less overall flavor. The sesame chicken was just so so. It wasn't bad but the sauce was a red color that Ive never seen before and it didn't taste like any other sesame chicken I've had. The chicken fried rice and fortune cookie were the best part of the meal. I still want to try it for a third and maybe final time to get a couple of appetizers (which is what I normally get from Chinese places).

    This was takeout so we didn't notice until we got home. Husband called and told them. Said he wanted it was replaced and he would also buy another one. They said OK. He drove back there and they looked at him like they had no idea what he was talking about. Then just proceeded to ignore him until he left.

    Egg roll was very tasty. No extra charge for produce sticker on green pepper. Very disappointed.

    Amazing food, kind ambiance, and quick service. 5/5 would go every day if I could. I recommend their sesame shrimp.

    Just doing this review because their food is better than 3 stars. It's cheap healthy and tastes…read moregood

    Spilled food and bad customer service…read more I really like this food and I wasn't going to post anything but heresy the story. I placed an preset for pick up then when I walked it I was handed a perfectly packed vertical bag with our food by the guy who works there. I took it to my car and drove to work and when I opened the bag I realized that the tray was placed side ways and it stained and spilled the sauce inside the bag and got out to my car seat. Stayed calm until the next part. I decided to make a phone call to let the guy know what had happened hoping that next time or for other customers this will be something to keep an eye out for. But I was dumbfounded by our conversation. Me: explained the situation that he handed me the bag was wrong and it spilled my food. Him: He said that " that's your problem and not my problem" I couldn't believe what his response was and I told him that thanks for great customer service and hung up the phone. I didn't even want an apology, I just wanted to make him aware of what happened so it wouldn't happen again to someone else. Customer service is top priority in the food industry and hopefully this review helps other customer to think twice. So sad
