Dumplings

Little Wok located in Wicker Park is a chic and modern Asian restaurant featuring a wide range menu. Offering everything from noodle to rice dishes, dim sum, ramen, and more. A very nice modern aesthetic to the place. Featuring a wide and open dining area. I found food to be ok I felt it like lacking in flavor but nonetheless I still enjoyed my time and we got great service while there. I feel this may be more of a lunch spot. Prices are pretty reasonable you won't break the bank going here.

Sushi lunch special
Beth K.

We can early for lunch and it had a nice upscale feel, they had large garage doors that could be opened up on a nice day to include the outside dining . They had some good lunch specials deals with generous portions., which included an eggrolll or miso soup. All the food was good, the orange chicken was nice and crispy but not spicy at all. Ramen had a yummy broth with good noodles. The kimchi fried rice had a good crisp and spice to it . The waitress was helpful and quick.

Scallop
Darren H.

It was bound to happen. We found a restaurant in Chicago that we didn't like much. We started with potstickers. They were not good- I've never had a doughy potsticker. Flavor was ok, but just too much dough! Donna got salt and pepper tofu. It was breaded cubes of tofu with no sauce and some rice. She ate about a third of it. I got a raw scallop wrapped around some rice with wasabi and pickled ginger (I got a raw thing to shock the wife). By itself it had little flavor, but the wasabi was fierce. So strong, cleared my sinuses right out. My main was chicken tonkatsu ramen, a big bowl of average. Chicken was ok, a bit chewy. The broth just didn't have any depth of flavor. Overall, a fail.

Egg Roll(2)

Based on the mixed reviews, I was a little hesitant but I have to say we were pleasantly surprised!! We ordered on door dash from a huge menu. We went with the: - Scheuzan chicken 8/10 - Pad see ew 9.5/10 - steamed gyoza 8/10 This is the best pad see ew I have found in wicker park. I've struggled to find good Thai here! Delivery or within walking. All the normal recs have been disappointing for this dish. Little wok nailed this! Good flavor, good portion. My only wish was a little more spice but overall will def get again. My husband liked his too but it didn't come with white rice like those dishes normally do which we thought was strange... def should. We also both enjoyed the gyoza. Haven't tried the sushi or "Chinese" side of the menu but liked the Thai!

I'm conflicted about this place after eating here several times. I like the variety of different Asian dishes on their menu - Chinese, Thai, Korean, etc. The beef cubes over rice is one of their best dishes, although the Korean beef over rice was fatty and thin. Sushi rolls are on the thinner side compared to other places. Drinks are good though. Service is typically good , although I've sometimes had dishes come out late while others receive theirs. Sitting on their dog friendly outside patio is nice vibes.

Walnut Shrimp
Linette S.

I'm in town for a couple days and decided to join my friends for dinner at Little Wok. This place does take reservations, but we did not need one. It was 5 PM on a Thursday and the place was pretty empty. There are a lot of seating and it is nicely decorated. Julian (the busboy) came as soon as I sat down to fill our cups with water and was very attentive whenever we needed refills. Our waiter, Sam, was so nice and checked in on us periodically to make sure we were doing alright. The food came out in a timely manner, which I really appreciated. I had the avocado roll as my appetizer, which came with 10 rolls. It was fresh and they provided soy sauce. As my main portion, I had the walnut shrimp. It came with a side of rice as well. The walnut shrimp was creamy and also came with broccoli. It was a good portion size, so I even had some leftovers.

While our service can be hot or miss our food is always great... and drinks fantastic!! Add in a gorgeous setting and you've got one of my favorite restaurants.

You can't go wrong with any of them. The cabbage tofu pocket is one of our go-to items here. It's a stuffed inari and when you bite into it you get a mouthful of salad in a pleasant way. The blueberry gives it a nice sweetness. The crunch crunch shrimp was good too. It's deep fried shrimp wontons, and the inside was actually really juicy from the shrimp. I do want to make special note of their water, it tastes really refreshing and comes in a nice steel bottle. Service is good they brought the plates out in a way that doesn't overload the small table and they are quick about taking empty bowls away. One thing that could be improved was the lighting and fan situation. At the specific two-seater table we originally say there's a ceiling fan that is right below a ceiling light. This caused a quick flickering that was really distracting. We told a server and were able to be moved to a different table slightly further away where it was less noticeable. It's definitely not a good lighting experience and highly suggest the owners address this. Most tables aren't affected by this though.

The food was completely underwhelming, and when we shared our concerns with the staff, nothing was done to address them. The service was equally disappointing. Our server spent much of the time sitting on her phone while we waited for basic service like water refills, being asked about drinks, and receiving the drinks we ordered. We repeatedly had to get up and find someone just to receive attention. As for the food, the gyoza was bland and tasted like unseasoned pork. The lemongrass beef stew curry, which was highly recommended, arrived cold, had an odd texture, and lacked any real flavor. Most shocking of all were the drunken noodles. I've ordered them countless times over the years and always considered them among the best in Chicago. This time, I couldn't get past a single bite. Every dish was left unfinished. We didn't finish a single plate and didn't take any leftovers home--something that never happens for us. Between the poor service and incredibly disappointing food, this was an awful dining experience from start to finish. Unfortunately, after being a longtime customer, I won't be returning.

One thing of…read morenote, they only serve the burger at the bar after 7PM (I believe you can have it in the regular dining area before that time, but after 7PM, you can only order it at the bar!). The burger has a really rich and decadent miso butter that makes this burger so unique. If you want to double down on the miso butter, then order the oyster mushrooms (so delicious!). For another great side, the crispy chili cauliflower is very filling and tastes great! The ambiance of the restaurant is elevated yet casual and great for any event whether that be a date night spot, a get together with friends, or to celebrate a special occasion! The service is wonderful, our bartender was able to provide really great recommendations based on our preferences and what we were leaning towards so that we could share the perfect amount of food! Definitely will be coming back soon to try more of their menu!

We tried plenty of dishes, and the standouts were the Stuffed Cabbage and the Oyster Mushrooms. The mushrooms were so delicious we ended up ordering a second round! The stuffed cabbage had crispy rice on the bottom, char siu pork, and soft cabbage. It was the perfect mix of textures and flavors. We also ordered the steak, which took quite a while to come out, but they did warn us about the wait ahead of time. One tip if you're coming for dinner and want their famous burger: they don't serve it for dine-in after 7pm! You can still order it to go, so we grabbed one after our meal. Overall, the food was amazing, and the ambiance, vibes, and lighting were just as good. I'd definitely recommend it and can't wait to come back!

Modern Chinese Cook Book…read more.. Just in case you're wondering what it stands for and no I had no idea but did notice a cookbook in the restaurant but still didn't put two and two together. This Chinese restaurant is located on the ground floor in Chinatown and from the outside you have no idea what they have to offer even as you enter this cozy spot dishes out some serious bites. Menu takes a moment to figure out as they have dishes but are able to serve it with various sauces/or protein and does have indications of the spiciness level which surely helps in the decision making and be mindful as it all are served family style. My very first meal in Chicago I was ready for anything and the first impression was impressive for me personally as everything came out fast and hot and done right along with lovely presentation a quick pic was all it took as we were hungry. - Sour Pickle and Fish Fillet Soup It had the numbing sauce which I didn't understand and was afraid until I tried it and actually loved it the sour picked paired perfectly and that numbing soup was just that lol but wasn't spicy just left literally an impression on my palate - Chicken Egg Roll was just that very crispy and delicious though the presentation was unique as it came with a bowl of sauce packets - Cheng Du Spicy Wonton was probably one of my favorite simple but full of flavor drenched with sauce as it had a kick but not too spicy - American Broccoli with Flank Steak the classic that was good veggies done just right and tender meat - Eggplant Spicy Garlic Sauce was another favorite though I love eggplant it was tender and saucy that was a tad salty but gave it a good kick - Cold Noodle with Sesame Sauce was the last that we ordered so I was already getting filled up but it was nice and light that did accent and balance out the rest of the meal. Service is very nice and friendly especially with all of our questions since it was our first time and didn't disappoint and can see why there's always a wait and yes it's worth it if you're ever in Chinatown. Thank you!

Although orange chicken is relatively basic, there's isn't! It's crispy, orangey and savory. The best I've had. Their green beans, easily rival din tai fung's and their dumpling super good as well. A great broth, bouncy chewy wrapper, and super flavorful filling! The restaurant itself is cute & service is pretty decent, as well. Cons: Their crispy chili chicken wasn't my favorite, but I'm not the biggest fan of Szechuan chilies or dark meat. There was also a tang in the after taste of the chicken that I didn't love, but it was fresh and the crisp was really nice! There's also almost always a wait and the place and tables are pretty small, so if you're like me and like to order a lot of things, you may have trouble fitting things.

now *this* is great okonomiyaki…read more coming from seattle and very recently having a disastrous experience at the only okonomiyaki spot in our area (you can read my past reviews for that), my two friends, my partner, and i were looking forward to having great okonomiyaki. thankfully, gaijin delivered! we came by on a friday night, and it was fairly busy. we wouldn't have been surprised if we were turned away since we didn't have a reservation. they ended up making space for us thankfully and we didn't even have to wait long at all. the inside of the place isn't that big, but it's not so tiny that it's cramped. when you sit down, if you are in a large enough party, you sit down in front of a flat stovetop to keep your okonomiyaki warm when the waiter brings it out to you. we started with some drinks. they were all very good - next time i'm trying that espresso goma-tini! i did get a lychee martini though, and it was a little strong of a pour but i still really enjoyed it. onto the okonomiyaki. we all ordered different ones so we could try them. every single one of them were delicious. i got the tofu osaka-style, my partner got the beef osaka-style, one of my friends got the fried shrimp osaka-style, and my other friend got the traditional hiroshima-style. each okonomiyaki is prepared perfectly, not too thick and not overly saucy (so it doesn't get soggy). the flavours are quite rich but also really nicely umami. sometimes, too rich of a sauce kind of overwhelms me, but the ratios are well-balanced. overall, truly recommend this place. probably some of the best okonomiyaki i've had. next time i'm in chicago, i'd love to go again. there's so many options to choose from and i want to try them all!

It's really cool in here because you can watch them make the Okonomiyaki in front of you! They had like a set meal going on which included soup and okonomiyaki and dessert, which was mochi donuts. The soup was pretty good, standard. The Okonomiyaki was such a big portion. I loved the little tempura bits on top and they were generous with the amount of shrimp. It's like a yummy savory pancake. I will say I didn't really enjoy the mochi donuts but I was so full I couldn't eat them until later so it may have been because they weren't as fresh and got hard. If you've been wanting to try Okonomiyaki you should check this place out!
