I love the variety. I always get the udon noodle soup! The owner is present and is excited to greet new guests!

I stopped by JW's pub on a Friday night for karaoke and the experience was... interesting to say the least. I don't think I would feel comfortable eating anything from here. Even the drink (a very basic drink- vodka and cranberry juice) somehow didn't taste good. It wasn't very clean either. Definitely not hurrying back anytime soon. read more

I went in as a party of four on a Friday night. There were a couple of tables filled and the bar had five people at it. We were able to sit right away. The owner was the only one working at the time until a waitress came in an hour later. We ordered a half bowl of a grateful dead and my uncle got two mixed drinks. The grateful dead was definitely not made correctly. He said it's normally made with melon liquor and I told him it's supposed to be rasp. liquor. He said that he didn't have Chambord, but could add razzmatazz. The drink tasted like artificial lemon-lime sour mix. Well, he ended up charging us for a shot of razzmatazz so the drink that should have been $17.95 was now 26.95. Strike 1! My uncle, who ordered a Bullet and coke was charged $15 for a 12 ounce solo cup. The drink was strong, but this same drink is 6.95 at the House of Wu, which is in the same area and $7.50 at Bill's Place down the road. When my uncle questioned the price, he told him it cost $9 for the drink and another $6 for a tall. Well...he never asked for a tall, but was still charged for a tall. I'm not sure what is going on here, this has never happened to us here in the past, but it definitely is happening now. Strike 2! We ordered soup, which was good as always and chicken wings that were ordered well done, which I specified twice and he acknowledged. The sauce was great, but the wings were not well done at all. Strike 3! We were there for two hours total, one and half hours to get our food and we were overcharged for our drinks. My drink, maybe, but $15 for a bourbon and coke in West Warwick/Coventry with a sewage odor coming for the bathroom every time the door was opened...not going to happen again on my watch. read more

I've only driven by about a million times and FINALLY went with my meetup group. (I only live down the road too! How shameful and embarrassing!!!) ANYWAY!! This was not a disappointment! A very nice surprise of Asian fusion in this lil spot. There were only four of us, the place was open and airy and had outdoor seating, but it was too cold to go out there! Maybe on a better evening. They're open after 4:30 pm, for dinner, karaoke and some pretty good drinks and other refreshments. I love the description on the website "Laid-back watering hole with anime and pop-culture decor serving up pub grub and cocktails in fish bowls." The proprietor came and took our drink orders and then our food orders. I struck up a conversation with him and he said that his father had owned a long standing Chinese restaurant down the road that had been there for over 40 years. He has since sold it and gave his son his recipes, and he's doing a great job at it and the fusion is such the BEST idea too!! I ordered an appetizer, crab Rangoon rolls, they were great, and right out of the fryer hot!! They make a wonderful scallion pancake pizza. Loads of different toppings and instead of the usual tomato sauce it's first topped with Yakitori Sauce. Yumm-eee!! I got the sticky beef pizza. It was cooked in the sauce first then onto the pizza! (I can't remember the other toppings as the beef made such an impact on my tastebuds!!) It was topped with fresh scallions for a fresh finish. The scallion pancake made the BEST Crispy crust! Who woulda thought??!!! Wish I had taken pictures but I was in the moment my friends!!! You'll just have to go and check it out for yourself!!! I'll be back with the hubby in tow!!! read more

(This is the most fun review I have ever written and I have not even gone to Karaoke night yet.) This 5-star rating is largely due to the very crave-able food that the owner, Jason Wu, serves! I found his posts on a Facebook neighborhood group and made plans to go. Glad I did. This is a dive-y, low brow spot high on good food, good drinks, and friendly peeps. Amazing combinations. Jason so expertly "fuses" the best of Asian dishes together and comes up with items that other places would only dream of but not dare serve. This is not for the rigid when it comes to trying new things--especially with Asian food. Okay, let's talk scallion pizza crust pizza...am I right? You start not with the usual crust but with the complete food item that is scallion pancake, then top it with steak in sticky sauce and loads of melted cheese. This can go either way--really awful or really good. From a novice, it can be terrible. But here? Goodness, Y-U-M. I also had the wonton udon soup--their wonton is tender and meaty-delicious. I added fish tofu because I can. The Yakitori plate is a good gateway to the yummy Japanese skewered food. The sauce was not too sweet and I liked it. Several times, I regretted sharing my food with my husband (half kidding!). I wanted to order MORE items off the board and menu but that's just being greedy. We did share a bowl of Suffering Bastard--it was my first time to do a bowl drink as I don't like rum. This one has gin, brandy, pineapple juice...it was really good stuff. I am hooked. Go there hungry and review the photos prior so you can order without #FOMO. All looks and sounds good. Parking is ample. Their address is Coventry but really just past the West Warwick line. This is a low brow place with good folks, starting with the owner himself, Jason. No linens on table--in fact a lot are scratched. You go there for a good time and scrumptious food. If you like to sing, this place boasts of a popular Wednesday night Karaoke. It also has a small game room adjacent to the dining area. I saw a dartboard and a game machine. Not sure if there was Pinball but it looks like the kind of place that might. Just writing this is making me hungry again. I cannot wait to go back. I eyeball their online menu a lot. I am almost disappointed that they are closed on Sundays. Anyhoo, we really like the food in this place so if you believe an iota of what I say here, give it a try! read more

Ambiance: lowkey anime themed. Wednesday was playing on the tv, instead of sports, loved that. Has its own parking lot. Various type of accommodating seating. Service: wait times were a bit longer than we expected, it wasn't too busy until after we ordered our food. However, there was one person handling the bar and tables. Food: the yakitori steak and kielbasa were really good. I also liked the rice. Everything is scallion heavy, so if you don't like scallions, there's a heads up for you. I LOVED the scallion pancake pizza idea. However, it could use another type of sauce on it. ( Overall good experience, will be back to try something else. read more

Here's another long one for ya! Do you wanna try something absolutely out of this world? You need to go to JW's Pub in Coventry! When you walk in the place it's packed with awesome memorabilia from movies and anime. If you're a nerd like me, it'll sing to your soul. Jason greets you warmly and makes you feel right at home. When he hands you the menu and you see what's on the boards for specials your mind will be blown and your tastebuds will immediately light up! We started off with some incredible apps and then got the Crispy Beef Scallion Pancake Pizza and the Corned Beef Scallion Pancake Pizza (cuz ya know... it is St Pat's weekend! ) Holy shyte! Every bite is a flavorful crispy bite of paradise! Who needs traditional dough when you can have a crispy flavorful base of Asian awesome?! This puts traditional bar pizza on the back burner for sure. It's not small like a traditional scallion pancake. They make em and serve them bar pizza sized. The cheese is melty ooey gooey savoriness. They don't skimp with the toppings and the flavor combos are fantastic. I see people talking about the "flop" and I can assure you there is no "flop" here. It stands at FULL attention and delivers a flovorable bite every time. BONUS... grab yourself a fishbowl! So good and not overly sweet. EXTRA BONUS... if you're into karaoke he hosts karaoke nightly from 9 to close. Definitely a whole new pizza experience and worth the drive from Boston! read more

We tried the yakitori platter (sticky rice with skewers of fried mushrooms and tofu in a sweet/savory yakitori sauce) that was just absolutely stellar. We're overdue for a return trip. read more

Hey, JW's Pub I hear good things... Why not post a current Menu here on Yelp & remove the years-old versions? I'd like to peruse my food choices before coming over, but your outdated and seemingly un-tended listing here makes that impossible. Delegate these jobs to a staff person: 1. Remove pics of all old menus 2. Post a current Menu with dated photos of your delicious dishes & keep it current 3. Post a working link to your business website Till then, I rate your Yelp listing as 2 stars read more

The food is awesome! Delicious! So much to choose from. They also have karaoke there, it's fun.

I've had this place on my list for a while and I was glad to find an excuse to come visit. The Asian Fusion with hometown pizza fare is such an interesting concept. The place has a dive bar feel with simple tables and chairs. The decor / ambiance leaves a little to be desired. But the food was good and so was the service. Our table ordered Pineapple Passion drinks (delicious), a few apps and a few entrees. The wings are really superb; dill pickle dry rub and the special sauce. Flavorful, crispy without being breaded, and a bit spicy. Would recommend. We also got the kimchi potstickers. They were good but not overly flavorful. We also had udon noodle soup in the kimchi broth. Good but not great. The broth was fantastic but it didn't have many noodles or any other ingredients. Our party also had a burger (one person loved it, the other didn't at all) and a scallion pancake pizza, which I had a bite of, and it was super yummy. I'd go back for the wings and to try a few more dishes. I did not love the single use utensils at all. For the price it's a great spot. read more

I've been to a couple of Friday night karaoke nights at JWu's and it is a loud fun place to be! (Especially if u love music...)

Definitely a fun night out with the wife. ‍ read more

They have an extremely diverse menu. I ordered the pastrami sandwich and ramen with kimchi broth and they were both crazy good.

I love this place!!!! The drinks are delicious! The fusion food is great! I've been here more times than I would probably like to admit. The owner is beyond friendly! The staff is so welcoming. read more

After driving by so many times my husband and I decided to try this place after seeing posts on the local Facebook page... and it was SO good! Don't let the unassuming exterior or anime/comic-themed interior fool you -- the food and drinks are totally worth it. I had the tempura fish and chips but was very jealous of the scallion pancake pizza my husband ordered. We'll definitely be back! read more

This place is definitely a hidden gem with great bar atmosphere, amazing drinks, and pretty decent food. The cheesy tots were delicious and bacon on a stick can't go wrong. I'd ask for the sauce on the side next time, as I'm not used to salty foods anymore. Karaoke can't be beat. Lots of people in the rotation, lots of good people watching. Had a great time and can't wait to be back! read more

Good food, unique menu, nice crowd, good karaoke Friday night!! Great place to go to find unique tasting food. Nice crowd of friendly people and the prices are reasonable. read more

Excellent service. My Skater's Burger was cooked perfectly. I can't wait to come back and try some of the true fusion menu! Also super cool stuff all over the place. read more

Hadn't been back in a few months and wanted to try a new place for dinner so I decided on Jw's. Sat down on a Monday night it was quiet and very chill. I started off with the "banana and 2 coconuts" fish bowl for 2 and it was AMAZING!!! Jay knows how to mix a drink. Tasted awesome, mixed perfectly and I'm all about presentation. Served in a huge fish bowl type bowl with a nice heap or Swedish fish candy on top. So cute, visually appealing AF I loved it. Can't wait to try some other flavors. For food I got a BLT and fries which was delicious. Fries came out super hot and crispy just how I like em. BLT was on point. My bf ordered a burger he was very satisfied as well. Jay was perfectly attentive without being pushy or leaving you hanging. Overall great food, drinks and service all around. That's hard to come by these days. The inside is always clean with a nice spacious bathroom. Very mellow laid back crowd everyone keeps to themselves and just hangs. Looking forward to my next visit to JW's :-) read more

Looks are deceiving! My husband son and I were driving around last minute looking for someplace to eat. He quickly googled Chinese because that's what I was craving last night being almost 7 months pregnant. We walked into a quaint dive bar with anime and superhero pictures on the walls. I was delighted to see the yakitori menu along with some American food. We had the garlic shrimp, mussels and an array of yakitori and rice. My husband had the beef teriyaki sandwich which he said was amazing. The thing that impressed and stood out to me the most is I'm gluten free and the owner went ABOVE and beyond to makesure everything was gluten free for me with what I ordered and he was so sweet to also explain everything that he made sure it was gluten free. My husband got a fish bowl which he loved and my son a mango bubble tea. We will 1000% be coming back!!! read more

Bargain Stumbled upon this spot when trying to go to the now defunct Come Along Inn (Sad). We walk in not knowing what to expect. Apparently this is a Asian Restaurant and Bar. Wouldn't know by the name. Well, we were pleasantly surprised when you see a vast array of Polynesian drinks and cheap app items. They have daily specials as well. They pour a strong drink and the apps are pretty good. We had the bacon wrapped chicken and sauced tater tots. Pretty damn good for 12 bucks. Add a 10 dollar scorpion bowl for 2 and you can't get a better value. The place is into karaoke and runs it 7 days a week, but the clientele is very friendly and the whole crowd was having a good time. The place has a good vibe to it. We'll be back . Thanks read more

JW'S I will give a five star for the owner Jay very nice polite always smiling and also is the bartender. His drinks are phenomenal and a good price and the food is well priced and caters to all. My only thing I would change is the Every night kareoke, it draws the same crowd same people feels like you are alienated. read more

Love this place. Great food. Great drinks. My favorites are any of the pizzas and the yakatori platter. Crab Rangoon eggrolls are amazing as well read more

I am always in here on the weekends scarfing down some pot stickers, crab rangoon rolls, or other goodies from the appetizer menu. It's quickly becoming a favorite place where the bartender knows my name. This spot has KARAOKE 7 days a week after 9pm or so. Friday and Saturdays seem to be pretty happening but I have popped in mid week to find a good crowd too. THE DRINKS are all pretty awesome. There are lots of different fishbowl drinks and scorpion bowls as well as your regular jack and coke or shot of patron. The prices are also good, no price gouging here in my opinion. Tell them Bella sent you! read more

Another great place to stop, plenty of fun, karaoke, great great food, especially Asian style. Jason is such a host, nonstop working ethics, thanks to his mother, who certainly taught him correctly. Thank you. Jim AYER, president of Ace Investigations and security. read more

Uh wow. What a pleasant surprise! My partner and I had a coupon deal book and decided to try JWs pub after seeing their 'free cheese scallion pancake pizza' offer. We had never been and luckily this coupon was offered to take out customers as well so I went on their website and found so many categories of food. I wanted to stick to comforting asian food so we added to the order Garlic shrimp, bacon/leek yakitori, steak/chicken yakitori and mushroom yakitori. Oh! We also shared a 'build your own soup' with ramen, chicken broth and the most delicate shrimp! You can definitely tell the ingredients are fresh and the yakitori was ALL outstanding, even through takeout. The establishment is on the small side but after this preview we are sure to make this a dinner date destination. read more

Jw's.... mannnnn . The Chicken wrapped in bacon omggg I don't know what it is , but those things w that sauce are seriously delious!! Along with the wings w Jays sticky sauce on point! Prices are reasonable not over priced but not cheap enough where the business wont make money! I'm not from the area but when it 1st open up I was excited but it attracted the wrong kind of townies , the drinks were WAYYY to strong to where they weren't good. Soo i was turned off....then more and more people talked about how good the food is and I had to give it another try. NOW it's a good mix of people of all ages just looking to have fun! The drinks are STRONG but Good! Maybe it was just starting out gitzers. All and all a great townie bar right in the middle of west warwick / coventry (great location) read more

Was out with my parents 9:30pm Monday night, needed to get a burger and JW's was worth a shot. The food was great and my parents thought this "very local spot" during "Karaoke night" was a riot. read more

My wife and I were doing Lord if the Wings 2020 and had a coupon for JW's so we checked it out. Let's just say we discovered a hidden gem. Atmosphere is pretty standard for a pub, bar area and tables. Nothing to write home about. Service was good, but it was a slow Sunday night so hard to judge. The food was the big wow moment for us. The wings were good, nice and crispy like we prefer them. The fusion dishes were fantastic! Kielbasa yakitori? Delicious! Shrimp salad with peanut oil dressing, delish. Udon noodle soup with kielbasa, mouth watering. Wonton soup Hong Kong style, excellent, loved the broth. Conclusion, we will definitely be back. Heck maybe we'll check out Karaoke one of these nights or a "pudding shot". read more

Great hangout spot locally. Really enjoy the unique menu for food and drinks. Karaoke nights are a lot of fun here!

First time here. Great place, good food (a mix of Asian and pub food, so good) and great selection of mix drinks in a range of sizes. They have karaoke most nights, and everyone sounded great! Small place (no biggie). The owner Jay was there helping out with the bar and he is just the nicest guy, all the staff were great. Great atmosphere, will definitely be returning. I hear the scallion pancake pizzas are awesome, I'll be back to try one. read more

I have driven by this place many times but had no reason to stop until the food fights chicken wing challenge. They have several different flavors of wings and I asked the server, John who by the way was excellent, what he would recommend. He said that the sticky wings were popular and that they had a bacon salt barbecue dry rub that was not on the menu. So we tried the barbecue and a yakitori reduction wing. I absolutely loved the barbecue wings. They tasted like barbecue chips as John said they would. The yakitori wings were like a sticky wing but not as flavorful. Good but not my favorite. Then we tried the wonton soup and the beef and cabbage roll which were OK. I was adventurous so I tried one of their scallion pancake pizzas. Such a different idea and I knew that I needed to find out how good this was. I ordered just the cheese which came with the Yakitori sauce on top. The scallion pancake was absolutely delicious and it was loaded with cheese and drizzled with sauce. Now it's the next day and I'm still wondering if I loved it. I could only eat 2 small pieces because it is so rich and I love all the components but I'm still not sure if I love them all together. Extensive menu with excellent service and definitely worth a trip read more

Nice place to enjoy some Asian cuisine with a twist. Many of the dishes are straight forward but the chefs have put some inventive twists on the menu that make this place different from your stock Chinese restaurant. The food was terrific and drinks are very tasty. Scorpion bowls come in many different flavors. You don't find that in many places. read more

Lawd. I had heard many a tale that House of Wu poured a dangerously strong drink, but this offshoot, dammmnnnnm. I got a drink I am used to at sushi joints...usually I can have 3. I was trashed after one....bought a 2nd less potent drink and my friends and so affordable! Also, scallion pancake pizza- just do it. Perfect carbs and savory and salt for drinking. If I still lived with my rents this would be my local. But if you want to have strong drinks and karaoke everyday out in the burbs of Kent county (specifically Anthony, Phoenix, artic, oak haven) this is thee place. Maybe if you ask nice full dinner can be delivered from house of wu read more
