Joy Wok - This is the seasame chicken. I placed the order and heard the microwave start‍This is store bought " Chicken". Yuk. Never again. - Chinese Near Me - Sunnyvale, California

Excellent owner and chefs. Home cooking. Americanized chinese food not where it is at here. Owner is Vietnamese. Egg banh mi served eat in unassembled was best egg sandwich I ever had. Prices, food quality and selection better than any fast food outlet on Mathilda. Veggie soup without cream. Lighter with veg or chicken broth. Similar to canh style soups which are opposite to heavy European and American soups like clam chowder, chili, etc.. which use cream and a meat base to add flavor. Healthier. read more

Joy Wok - Coconut pandan - Chinese Near Me - Sunnyvale, California

Joy Wok is a cute little restaurant hidden around the corner from Lucky. It is quite small, and most of the food is like a Panda Express type ordering system. The orange chicken and spicy chicken wings were tasty. It was a little hard to know what each entree was, as they weren't labeled. I'm guessing this place is mostly regulars who come in and out because of the lack of labels. Each plate was a little less than $13 and I think you are definitely getting what you pay for. To be fair, we went in closer to 8 and are not sure if we got the slim pickings for the end of day. This is a decent place if you're in a rush and wanting quick Chinese food in the area! Hard to not compare to little chef in Campbell though. read more

Okay, I came back to try the food again. It's 6pm, there's more food choices. I ordered fried rice, curry chicken, and sesame chicken. Rice was fluffy and fresh. Entrees were old. But I knew what to expect this time. Place is cleaner than last time. read more

Nasty. Ordered Mongolian beef. They took beef already made for other dish (that is already in display warmer) and remake the beef into Mongolian dish. It was nasty tasting. I don't recommend period. read more

If you want to eat here, I would say choose somewhere else. The best thing about it was the price, $12.55 out the door for some orange chicken, rice, chow mein, and 1 egg roll. I wish I took a photo of the plate before I ate it, but after I ate it; these are all the small breaded pieces from the chicken that are left. Hardly any actual meat. And so many vegetables :( not worth it. Not somewhere you want to dine in at. I could've gotten a better plate at Panda Express I feel like read more

Joy Wok - Chinese Near Me - Sunnyvale, California

A fast food Chinese takeout place with spicy food! Safeway take out Chinese food and Wok On Express near me were too bland for my tastes. And Wok On was charging $16.95 for three items, soup and noodle. Time to look elsewhere. Always go to Lucky for their lowest priced Atlantic salmon, today $6.99/lb. Have to drive 4 miles round trip, through maybe 10 traffic lights each way. Next to Lucky is Joy Wok, a hole in the wall restaurant, with maybe three tables, as everyone does take out here. Food sitting in vats of hot water. $10.50 for noodles/rice and two items, $12.50 for three items. I always get the same thing: orange chicken, two orders of spicy fish, and noodles. Their chicken is really tangy, and their noodles greasy just the way I like it. Wife loves their spicy fish, each order of 4 strips of fish, lightly breaded, and hot and spicy. Can't find this elsewhere. The spicy fish is in the same vat every time, right in the middle in the second row. Today, I bring the order home, and wife says the spicy fish looks a bit larger than usual. Take a bite, and it's chicken! read more

Customer service is good. Potstickers I ordered were ok. Ambiance is a bit small to eat there.. Might try something else on their menu

I am a very picky eater so I try to bear that in mind when handing out the stars but there's a reason why Joy Wok is so cheap and it's not a good reason. Last night I ordered Chicken Fried Rice and Sweet & Sour Pork via GrubHub. When I first pulled the containers out of the bag I thought to myself, "Well that's an interesting smell." The rice looked as though it had been made sometime last week. Everything in it was a lovely shade of beige, including the peas. The chicken was quite ... rubbery and didn't taste like any chicken I've ever eaten. I held out hope for the Sweet & Sour Pork despite it's violent color. If you're a big fan of deep fried pork gristle this just might become your next favorite meal! Two mouthfuls of rice and two mouthfuls of pork and my dinner was on it's way to the garbage can. But there was a silver lining! I was convinced that food poisoning might have come with my order but nope, all good in that department. read more

Joy Wok - 2item plate - Chinese Near Me - Sunnyvale, California

Average Chinese fast food. I would recommend this place if you're just looking for something quick and cheap.

I have only ever had Vietnamese sandwiches in SF. I stopped here by chance. I ordered pork, but they suggested beef and chicken because they are popular. They only took a few minutes to make. They were delicious. read more

This establishment is unsanitary and serves spoiled food. Decided to order from this place on DoorDash whilst desperately trying to satisfy a pregnancy craving for Chinese food -- the photos on yelp were decent and figured I'd give them a shot. My hot and sour soup was JUST sour. So so so sour! As if it was cooked a week or more ago -- ate one spoonful and poured it straight down the drain. Moved onto the next item which was chicken chow mein and there was a DEAD FLY SMEARED ON THE CONTAINER! At that point, I was scared to risk my health and the whole bag went straight into the trash. Stay away from this place if you don't want to risk food poisoning due to spoiled food and unsanitary practices. read more

A hidden gem for their banh mi and soups. Banh Mi (4/5): I get the Combination 1B Banh Mi (ham + pork roll) every time, the meats are fresh and tasty - there are about 3 cuts of meat + pâté. BIGGEST issue is that I don't taste any "bo" or butter on the bread. I really wish they put more butter. Soups (5/5): The hot and sour soup and wonton soup are seasoned for the soul! Garnished with fried shallots and fresh cilantro. The taste takes me back to the jubilant, bustling street food stalls of Vietnam/Asia. BEST thing about it is that it's only $5!! Great price! Service is spectacular, the kind ladies welcome everyone here in a homey manner. Highly recommend soups and the Combo Banh Mi. read more

Pretty good takeout place. It's decently priced and the workers are friendly. I need to try more of their stuff but their hot plates are good. Personally not a fan of banh mi so I've never tried them. read more

Honestly, I love this place. I've been meaning to type a review for a while now but never had a chance until now! Personally I order their hot food or their banh mi's since the price is right for the generous amount of food they give you. For food off their 'regular' menu, I personally recommend the Won Ton soup or the rice places!! The spring rolls are to die for too The workers there are super nice and chatty too once you become a regular like me also! I def would recommend giving this place a shot. 10/10! read more

Chinese food portion of the restaurant was ok. Not the greatest. Not a repeat place to eat. Service was overall good.

Forget Panda Express, I found this family owned Chinese-Vietnamese take out place. They even do fish and chips!!! I had a party and decided to add some Chinese food, so I ordered up a medium party-size of Chicken chow menu and Vietnamese spring rolls. The owner verify the egg roles are vegan. Even better, because we of course had one Vegan. This is going to be my new go-to place! read more

Joy Wok - Chow mein and spring rolls - Chinese Near Me - Sunnyvale, California

I don't think we would have ever come here if it weren't for a power outage at the restaurant that we originally went to. We craving some banh mi, but when we arrived at our go-to place we were dismayed to discover that they had lost power due to a utility pole repair down the street. On the sign on their door, they mentioned that the same sandwiches could be found at Joy Wok, so we made our way over here. This place of course has more than just banh mi, and is one of your typical ready-to-eat buffet sort of places, where you construct a plate with the items behind the glass. In addition, they offer fish and chips, and I just couldn't resist giving this a try because I will never turn down the opportunity to eat fish and chips. We did order one banh mi as well. The overall verdict was mixed. The sandwich was fine, but the bread didn't have that nice crusty texture that we have come to expect at our regular haunt. As for the fish, I had high hopes when it came out because it was surprisingly large, with two fairly enormous planks of fish on a large bed of fries. It was blisteringly hot when it was brought to our table. Sadly, this really fell short. Both the breading and the fish itself was lacking in flavor. The person behind the counter said that they use swai, which in my experience is a very mildly flavored fish and does require some seasoning in order to make it enjoyable. The breading should have taken care of that, but unfortunately it was also kind of bland. It was also too thick, and there were some parts of the batter that we still a little soggy. Bottom line is that there are probably some better choices here. read more

A great deal with tasty food. I like the hot and sour soup, banh mi, and crab rangoons. Also the salt and pepper fish is yummy and they know how to package everything so it doesn't spill in route (when I get delivery). read more

I had went to KFC for a To Go Cup . It was Ok but it Didnt Fill me up. So I decided to try Joy Wok out . I rolled in there and was greeted by a nice woman.

The wor wonton soup is amazing. It's my to go to when i'm feeling sick it always makes feel better.

Great comfort food with great choices food was good too . I recommend trying it . I certainly did.

Nah don't listen to those 1 star reviews. They're either kids who's feeling privileged or trying to be a fake food critic. 1. In a vegetarian and the food looks very appealing to me. 2. Customer service was very kind and helpful. 3. The food is great for what it is (not gonna compare to a 3-star-Michelin like others did). 4. Vietnamese coffee was effin strong!! Just eat here if you're around and crave some Chinese food, and not Panda Express (it's like a 2-tier above Panda and I'm an authentic Chinese). read more

Inexpensive, fast, good Chinese food. As others have said, it's like a mom & pop Panda Express, maybe better. I got: - spicy fried fish. Nicely fried outer bread coating, delicate fish flakes. Fried with peppers and onions for extra goodness. Exceeded my expectations. - broccoli beef. Good sauce. Met my expectations. - chow mein. Decent, also met my expectations for Chinese fast casual. read more

Happy to have a new Chinese restaurant in Sunnyvale! Ordered a two item plate from them (comes with two items + rice/chow mein). They had run out of chow mein which was a bummer so I ended up getting orange chicken, Mongolian beef and fried rice. We were there for dinner so the menu was made to order versus having things pre-made (which I assume is how lunch is done based on their layout). Pricing was fair: $7.69 for a two item combo. Food was pretty good. Orange chicken was good and I would order it again. I think I would have preferred chow mein so I will try that next time! The two item combo is HUGE so come hungry or prepare for leftovers. read more

Nice folks, customizable food (we like extra extra spicy) and hella options to choose from!

Bland food, doughy egg roll, weird texture on the beef. Won't be back. Recommend that you stay away.

Good area. Food was alright. A bit to much garlic on the chowmein and/or fried rice for my liking. I bit oily that I'm used too. Orange chicken was bit hard to chew. Food was warm not hot.. Not the kind of person that complains, but it wasn't for me. read more

Great local spot for Chinese! Highly recommend trying the special noodle soup - it blew my mind

This is their "1 side" meal from their hot bar. I didn't realize 1 side meant to fill only 1 side. If I did, I would have spent the extra dollar and go for 2 sides. Quality is about the same as Panda Express, which to clarify now, I'm not a fan of either. I will give them the extra star because their "banh mi" is better than average in this area of Sunnyvale (granted it's been over a year since I've ordered one of those from here). Needless to say, I won't be ordering from the hot bar again. May change my rating if I decide to come back and go for a banh mi next time. read more

I'm a casual guy, so to me this place is first rate. It's a neighborhood small business. For what it is, its at the top of its class. I've never had anything here that I didn't like. Tonight alone, I had the Mongolian Beef, Broccoli Beef, Sesame Chicken, Sweet and Sour Pork, and BBQ Pork Fried Rice. All of it was terrific. Especially the Fried Rice, which I'm now adding to my favorite dishes here. Which includes Orange Chicken, Egg Rolls, Pot Stickers and Chicken Chow Mein. The people here are very nice. The place is nice and well kept. Good food, reasonible prices. read more

Recently opened so I decided to give it a go ! Very nice, clean and attentive. I ordered the General Chicken, Green Beans with Chicken & Angel haired noodles. Oh and egg roll. Wash it down with a nice Root Bear. Seem to have a really steady crowed from everyone that works in the area. My Order: I was not overly impressed with my meal. The General Chicken was tough and seemed to have been made a while ago, The green beans where very green but was not great. I'm sorry but would i go back .... probably not. Even though this is just a block away from my work. read more

I tried this place out because we are currently looking for a new Chinese food place in Sunnyvale. We tried the following items: Broccoli Beef Chicken Fried Rice Fried Rice Chow Mein Sesame Chicken Sweet & Sour Pork All the items were very salty. I would rate all items a 2 on there own except the Sweet & Sour Pork that was definitely a 5! The cashier/server was friendly. The restaurant clean. The price was standard about $6.00 an order. Might come back, but I will keep looking for a great Chinese food place. read more

Once again Yelp directs me to a place to eat. In town for work for a while and I need to find new haunts. This one I will come back to because it's pretty good and inexpensive. I had the Wor Wonton Soup because it's now cold enough to have it. Plenty of dumplings and pieces of brocolli, beef and chicken and a surprising number of shrimp too. No skimpy portions here. The soup is staming hot so I decide to tackle my fried dumplings while I wait for it to cool off. I think I got 10 froed dumplings for under 4 bucks and by the time I mowed through the ten ..... my soup was still too hot. after a little while I'm able to sip my soup without scalding my tongue and it's good... I mean really good! By the time I'm done with my soup and all the meat, shrimp and wontons in it I'm in a food coma and happy as a little clam. All this.. the bowl of soup and feast in it and the wonton appetizer for about $12 bucks! See you soon!!! read more
