Went there to pick up a take out order, place was filthy and cold. There wasn't a clean table to sit down while waiting. The food quality has dropped since the last visit, greasy. Will not be returning. read more

20 years ago I got sick after eating an eggplant dish so I avoided the restaurant for two decades. Maybe that was a little harsh to not return there for 2 decades. Other people tell me it is their favorite Clearlake restaurant. There have been fewer and fewer restaurants in town since many of my favorite places shut down due to the COVID shutdown a few years back. I recently went back there with a few friends. I decided to avoid the eggplant dish, just in case. Most of the time I eat vegetarian. One friend had a shrimp walnut dish that looked really good. The shrimp was properly cooked and seasoned. My one friend also ordered an appetizer with fried wontons and little cream puffs and some other things. I would normally not order deep fried things because they tend to be greasy and hard for me to digest. These appetizers were not greasy and were tasty. The portion size was good for all our meals. The cost per meal was reasonable compared with other local restaurants. The vegetables were ample and very fresh. What I ordered was the Vegetable Egg Foo Young. It came piled with fresh vegetables atop the egg. I think of egg foo young as a Chinese omelette. The amount and quality of the vegetables makes this dish special for me. I have now been back 3 times, making sure to order that dish each time. One time I also ordered Mu Shu Vegetables which is akin to Chinese tacos with a plum sauce condiment. Yummy also. My sweetheart ordered cashew broccoli and liked that so much that is what they always order now. She also especially loved the abundant of properly cooked fresh broccoli. We always eat our fill and still have another full meal at home with our leftovers. Magic Wok and Kour Thai are my two favorite restaurants in Clearlakes. We also like certain Mexican restaurant across from Food etc. but that is in slot #3 because the Mexican restaurant does not serve many vegetables. It is otherwise hard to be a vegetarian in ClearLake. Lucky we sometimes eat fish. The only complaints I have about Magic Wok recently is that sometimes the tables are sticky, but the Lady proprietor usually wipes down the table before you order. I don't recommend touching the table before that. The other complaint I have is that the path to the toilets are obstructed with boxes and supplies which makes it impossible to get back to the facilities with my walker. Because of the bathroom access problem we have elected to order takeout if I need to use the facilities. read more

Delicious food. Orders to go. Cute dinning area. I love the menu and the service. Check it out.

I was a disappointed to hear that this place is closed down... But this was one of the best places that I've ever been to... The food was always on point... Savory and delicious... My favorite dish was the pork tosilog, I would order double meat...and the vinegar was a must! It was a small establishment with little room to dine in. But I preferred to take my meals home anyways, and I don't think any flavor or heat was really lost. The staff were professional. It wasn't personal, make your order, get your food, and keep it moving... wish this place was still around read more

First thing is the lady that takes the orders and runs the front end is awesome ! When she's busy she is quiet and focused. But when it's mellow there she is quite funny and fun to talk to. My wife is infatuated with the fried zucchini... she orders it every time we eat there. Sometimes she will have just the zucchini for dinner. I've had several things from the menu. The wor wonton soup is really good. A lot of dumplings and a lot of veggies ( which is my favorite part). Just a piece of advice, If you order a large you better be hungry... that is a lot of food. We've not had anything from there that wasn't very good. We love Magic Wok ! read more

Back at my fav Asian restaurant in Clearlake!!! Got their fried fish, broccoli and beef, and their fried chicken wings! read more

Super generous portions and maybe some of the cheapest prices in the city. The restaurant was super dead so I didn't have to worry about waiting too long to be seated and to have the food prepared. They may have had a few takeout orders but that was it. I loved how efficient and quick the service here was. The employee did refill my water glass once but never came back to ask how everything else was. read more

My family and I always have a great experience at Magic Wok. Lyn is very friendly. The cook makes the best Chinese food I've had. Since finding them I've never gone to another Chinese restaurant. We all have felt very welcomed and at home. read more

It was a perfect proportioned I had some to take home after. The food is cooked to order super fresh. The soup was a bit extra peppery for me but everyone has their own taste buds. The service is fast and the lady who takes your order is extremely patient . read more

Bought $100. Worth of food for party. Good food for take out. I will go there again.

For Clearlake the food was excellent. There's so much bs in the area and these folks are resilient. Their food was excellent for the area. I enjoyed the owner and her family' company. I will come back. Food was delicious. Clearlake needs to take care of these people and look after good people that choose to run a good business in the area. read more

Everything is pretty good, with one exception. Their Fried Rice is not very good. I expect to see fresh, yellow scrambled eggs, not pieces of brown egg that looks old. I expect Green onions and possibly peas or carrot. The taste is bland. Please improve your Fried Rice!!!!! read more

Not recommended, I ordered a beef noodle soup and it was disappointing ...I'm not sure if I should say it out

We call it 'dirty Chinese' because the tables are sticky and the windows and entry door dirty. The bathroom is rather discusting. The food and service however, is both quick and exceptionally fresh and tasty! Put on your blindfold and enjoy perhaps the best Chinese in Lake County. Open 7 days 11 till 9PM. read more

grabbed lunch here late December the wait was about an hour and they hung up on me twice before I went there but they were open and the chicken was much better than the beef options. Went back and food tasted like a cigarette. I told the lady that the chicken was stale or off or had been defrosted and froze too many times and that it had a rancid taste to it and she just kept telling me that it must be a busy day, huh? I said it very nicely, but the staff there clearly don't care about the quality of the food. read more

Another good place to eat in Lake County. Inexpensive food and decent quality matching. Small building on a main street and next to busy gas stations. The interior isn't the greatest. Plain and old needing some work but it was not as dirty as I saw another reviewer say, must've been a bad week. I didn't eat there but there were about 10 small tables, minimal decor, bar seats, and in a small room with an open kitchen. They were half full with people eating there and she was very busy on the phone. Seems to have consistent business from the Clearlake area. He ordered Mandarin chicken, sesame beef, mu shu pork with extra pancakes, and bbq pork fried rice. Came out to about 51$ The chicken was not my favorite because it wasn't crispy at all by the time we got home and there was something in the flavor that I didn't enjoy. Mu shu pork was great, light, and the pancakes were not tortillas, which is a huge win! The sauce is dark; cannot tell if hoisin or plum sauce. Sesame beef was sweet, cooked well and the rice was great. This is the second time we have ordered and I remember enjoying the food and the price the previous time. read more

Very good, fast meals. My brother and I loved it. Only Chinese place in town. Good service too

delicious, affordable, fast and family style Restaurant Service maybe slow on busy times but worth the wait for freshly cooked food read more

Food is delicious! Given how packed the restaurant was with both customers eating in and even more coming in for take-out, I really have to commend the owners on their ability to serve everyone expertly and quickly! I LOVED the egg drop soup, especially on the rainy day I was in. This was my second visit and it won't be the last. Yum! read more

I was so hopeful when I walked in yo the magic wok. It was fairly busy. I ordered Mongolian Beef, Chow Mein and BBQ Pork. What a disappointing meal. The Chinese barbecue pork was so overcooked and dry. It was like a piece of shoe leather. This should not have been served to anybody that should've gone into the trash. The chow mein was Mongolian beef read more

I love magic wok, have good food, and very friendly. I wish they were open more, I love their prawns, shrimp and house fried rice.

Food is okay, the chickens are always soggy and chewy not any type of crispy. Everyone's saying they're not expensive but it kind of is, if you want multiple items. For two to go plates of chicken and chow mein and four tiny egg rolls with no filling it was 40$. Service has always been terrible. Usually give the benefit of the doubt and think maybe the lady taking orders is having a bad day. But she is very rude, blunt, and not friendly. I come in with manners and a happy persona but she just always has something against me or something. If I ask for sauce she's mad. If I ask for chop sticks she's mad. The cook is a pretty friendly guy even though he doesn't say much. She was in the back saying she would come in a bit, so I took a paper menu that is displayed for people to grab. Even though I told her "no worries I'm still looking at the menu" she was mad that I helped my self. She after proceeded to yell the total multiple times at me. Today was my last straw. read more

Ordered orange chicken, beef with snow peas, egg fried rice, veggie chow mein, tofu sweat and sour, beef with broccoli was really hot fresh and hot the spot. Price is above average, portions are plenty & flavor is good. read more

I went to eat there and they served me stir fried flies.... NEVER will I eat there again!!!

Use to be great. That was a year ago Must have new ownership. It was very greasy seemed as if the food did not have the same flavor, actually totally different . I will not go back anymore. read more

A gem of a restaurant in Clearlake. Great, large menu features a number of different Chinese cooking styles, each one of great quality, taste, and all fairly priced. Keep in mind they are closed on Mondays. read more

They should change the name to magic onions. Everything we ordered had way too much onions in fact my Mongolian beef was all onions no beef

HORRIBLE customer service, from the faces to the order , the rudesness is embarrassing and disrespectful. I treat every small business and person with respect and with good energy. Despite telling everyone the food here is good I will not be eating from here anymore. 1 star is for the cook, he can make good food, feel sorry for your host though. read more

Absolutely awful, that was the worst Mongolian beef lunch plate I've ever had. I took a bite spit it out and dumped it. I used to go here when I'd visit and it was pretty good. Absolutely terrible and I'll never ever go back. read more

Used to be a favorite place when we moved here. But, I can't get over how filthy this place is. Food has gone way down hill over the past year or two. They cook the food in giant woks that u can watch from the bar top. Sauces are left sitting out with drips everywhere on everything. Last time I was there there was a huge bowl of cooked chow neon noodles just sitting by the window. It's always been like this since I started eating here, and when the food was good i took the filth with a grain of salt. But I just can't eat here anymore. read more

Food is really bad, I got sick as a dog last time I tried it. It's dirty and the staff is abrupt. I would choose anything else...
