    Vegetable fried rice

    Great location with the most helpful staff. They have a nice variety of items on the menu. They give you huge portion sizes. The restaurant is well-lit. Also, they provide carryout, so if you need to call and pick up your order, they will accommodate it.

    Hot and sour soup

    Mr. Lin's lives up to the hype. The inside isn't the prettiest or most welcoming but it gets the job done. The star here is simply the food. The taste, the portion size, and the price are unbeatable. They have hands down the BEST hot and sour soup in Jefferson County. Period. It comes with your lunch if you dine in. I've only eaten the General Tso's chicken, and I must say that the last time I went I had to ask them to toss it again because it had a lack of sauce and it wasn't spicy like I asked. However, they had no problem fixing the mistake and I left a happy customer with a massive amount of chicken.

    Hot & Sour soup

    What a pleasant surprise and experience! My niece and I came here for lunch on a Saturday afternoon. It was extremely crowded inside but we found a table without any issues. It's small inside but comfortable. Service was so fast and outstanding! We ordered and immediately our hot and sour soup was pippin hot at the table. The soup was amazing! Shortly after our entrees arrived. I ordered house lo Mein(Asian hot). The flavor of the chicken , shrimp and beef was so tasty and satisfying. My niece had the sesame chicken and she said she enjoyed it. Lots of food in the lunch portion which included soup , fried rice and egg roll. Everything was amazing from start to finish. Great food and service!!!! Definitely a top Chinese food spot worth checking out and very reasonable!

    Kung Pao lunch (notice the missing egg roll, which I also gobbled down!)

    Always so darn good! We drive 25 minutes to eat here, because it's awesome. Their hot and sour soup is the best in the county, and stays HOT if you want to travel home with it. Large portions, reasonable price. Delicious! Crab Rangoon are crispy on the outside, creamy on the inside. Steamed dumplings are tender and flavorful Kung Pao chicken was spicy and yum!

    We ate in!!!

    Located in a quaint outdoor shopping area right off I-459, China Wok is nestled between the Dollar…read moreGeneral and Nails For U. From the outside, CW is rather simple with just a large sign. The interior is dated telling me they have been there awhile. There's a smaller dinning room and a larger one that has tables and an area for their buffet. But overall it's what I would consider cramped. If the buffet gets busy, there's not much wiggle room to walk when people are at the buffet. Their menu is also standard with all the typical dishes that you would expect. In addition to a lunch buffet, they also a lunch special menu with steam or fried rice, egg roll or choice of soups, egg drop, hot & sour or wonton. Their House Specials list include the typical list of asian dishes. I don't see many ordering from the lunch menu since the All You Can Eat lunch buffet is only $12. On this Friday, the lunch buffet was very popular and busy. I have not had an asian buffet in awhile. This buffet had an impressive variety of dishes including a small sampling of desserts. They had the usual egg drop and hot and sour soup, both of which were on par. The coffee cake and fried sugar donuts were very good. There was a fried rice, lo mein and steamed rice. The bulk of the buffet were chicken dishes with a beef and veggies and a pepper shrimp dish. My favorites were the salt and pepper chicken, General tsao chicken and pepper shrimp. Yom Yom Yom! The entire restaurant could use a little more room and a facelift. The atmosphere was nice. At the peak of the lunch hour, the place was practically full with pretty much everyone at the buffet or filling to go boxes off the buffet. The servers were very helpful and prompt. For the the variety and price, this ayce buffet is hard to beat. I would definitely return when I get the chance.

    Best Chinese takeout in the Bessemer/Hoover area! My favorite is the Lo Mein. But I've not had…read moreanything that didn't taste good.
