Hunan beef
Jeff S.

Great long time spot for yummy Chinese. Very clean and inviting. Went mid week to great service and a varied menu. Don't judge this place by the silly name, it is a great place to go in the Kanawha valley.

The delicious West Virginia Roll
Melanie W.

This is a great sushi place in the Cross Lanes area. I'm coming back to WV from Cali so was trying to figure out how the sushi is here and thankfully Teaghan at Rice Bowl helped me choose the West Virginia roll and it was divine. Crunchy shrimp on top of avocado and crabmeat tempura with eel sauce and a special tangy sauce. Delish. Great lunch specials. Today, I got the hot and sour soup, it's perfect in the fall and winter days plus they make fresh homemade wonton crisps to go with it. I love the tuna sashimi. It's excellent and fresh. I crave it all of the time.

Horrific not Pad Thai
C C.

My mistake was ordering Pad Thai from a Chinese place, through DoorDash nonetheless. What I received was the poorest attempt I've ever encountered in my life. I'm actually embarrassed on their behalf. I'm the type that very rarely wastes food, but it went straight into the garbage can. There was nothing Pad Thai about it. The noodles were complete mush and inedible. A few tiny salad shrimp, no cilantro, no lime, no sprouts, and NO PAD THAI SAUCE?! I think there was some crushed peanuts, but couldn't be sure if that's what it was. I may have been able to look past all the missing ingredients, but the noodle mush was just too awful. Never again.

Chicken, egg roll, beef, crab Rangoon

Ordered here for Christmas dinner, and they were extremely busy, which we totally understand. The food is usually pretty decent for the price. We ordered 1 pu pu(?) Platter, 3 Singapore Noodles with Curry, 3 egg rolls, 2 spicy California rolls, and 1 avacado roll. It was $73.88 The prices on the website are out of date so the price was a bit of a shock. They also failed to give us a receipt when we asked as I wanted to check what the price of each of the items were. They also crushed a sauce when bagging the order in front of my husband. We ordered a pu pu platter, and received 1 each of chicken wing/leg (dried out and hard to chew), beef on a stick (flat and hard like jerky-good flavor but hard to chew), crab Rangoon(nice!), beef rib (which was amazing) and an egg roll. The Singapore noodles with curry was pretty good but kinda dry. It was mostly noodles with very little of anything else. This is something we order everytime and this has continued to become more noodles and less substance with time. I love sushi, and the California and Avacado roll ingredients were amazing. I would like to have a good amount of rice on them, and have the rice not be overcooked. I don't think I would have such a problem with anything if I felt it was a good value for the money. I love this restaurant, but since covid we've seen a dramatic increase in prices while the food quality and size has been reduced. I think this is something happening everywhere, but shrink portions OR raise prices, not both.

Sweet and Sour Chicken
Caity C.

Great spot in Cross Lanes! It was pretty busy, but our waitress was very nice and attentive. We had the crab rangoon, which was hot and full of flavor. Then I had the orange chicken, which had a robust sauce with a nice touch of citrus and a bit of spice. My companion had the sweet and sour chicken, which was nice but could've used more veggies. So glad we checked Yelp on this trip, because we never would've found this great spot!

Golden Wok - Singapore mei fun

Hi everyone. Hope you are well. I've got a story to share about a local restaurant…read more I ordered pickup at Golden Wok in Nitro, WV today. I brought my youngest daughter with me into the restaurant to get the food. My daughter is non-verbal autistic and makes audible sounds on a regular basis. She was doing this in the restaurant as I was paying and getting our food. The young man taking my order stared at my daughter, which is a common thing. When I gave him my credit card, he didn't look at me. He continued to stare at my daughter. He then addressed me. "Sir; when you come to restaurant, can you not bring her in? She is making random sounds." I didn't say anything for a few seconds. Then he said the same thing again. I let him know that she won't be back, that I won't be back, and I'll do my best to make sure that l tell as many people as possible about this so that they won't get food from Golden Wok in Nitro, WV. The young man didn't say anything, then gave me my receipt to sign. I got my food and left. I'm still pretty angry. When I returned home, I called Golden Wok in Nitro, WV and asked to speak to a manager. I got a manager and let them know what happened, asked if this was a restaurant policy to not allow non-verbal autistic people who make "random sounds" into the restaurant, and, if so, would make sure to inform as many people as I can. The person I talked to on the phone said that is it not a policy to discriminate, apologized, said it would be addressed with staff, and would check with the owner if this was indeed a restaurant policy. I haven't received a call from the owner yet and it's been over an hour since my phone call. I'm don't think I'm getting that call. So if you're still reading this, im asking you to not order food from Golden Wok in Nitro, WV. I will not be ordering from them again. Have a great rest of your weekend.

I was really craving a sushi roll and knew I could grab one here. I also got the 2 entree meal…read morebecause I was absolutely starving. I had to go to the mall to get an eye exam and needed a quick foodie fix. It was delicious and huge portions. Sushi roll, 2 entree meal, drink, and yum yum sauce was $21. But honestly, I got enough for multiple meals. My leftovers will be lunch tomorrow. My son loves this place. Usually, I opt for pizza. However, I'll definitely grab some food here again!

I ate here on Wednesday afternoon when they first opened. I got sesame chicken and rice. I sat down…read moreand began eating my food while talking to my husband. Part way through I looked down and realized the chicken was discolored and gray looking. It didn't smell or taste foul. By 315a Thursday I began violently vomiting, diarrhea, headache, extreme abdominal pain, low grade fever. I have no doubt in my mind that it came from there. I'm the only one in my family who ate there and no one else has been sick in my home. I lost 7lbs in 5days. I ended up in the ER for fluids and antibiotics. My 1st red flag should have been all the drinks and crap piled up on the counters. There's no way they can properly clean and disinfect surfaces. My guess they took the leftover chicken from the night before, didn't store it probably overnight and reserved it the following day at open. I will never ever eat here again. Yes, I called the health dept to report the issue. Save yourself and stay away from this place. I'm only giving a 1 star review because it makes you. Otherwise I'd give 0 stars.

Diners Beware--- we were at Ichiban within the last week and saw the back bar crawling with…read moreROACHES. At least 2-3 within eyesight scrambling on the bartenders receipts and the circling the heat from the music/video system all night. There's no way they weren't noticed by the staff as well. The service was okay, but the restaurant reeked of ammonia. The edamame tasted old/dry, the teriyaki salmon wasn't bad, the dumplings tasted good according to my husband but he ended up getting sick later. Not sure if it was the dumplings or just the thought of seeing cockroaches as we were trying to have dinner. The people working there were nice enough, but we won't ever come back.

First time dining here. First off, if my driver hadn't told me this was the restaurant I wouldn't…read morehave known. There isn't a sign that I could find. When I first walked in, I thought I might be in the wrong place because it looked more like an Irish Pub than it did a Japanese restaurant. There is the first bar area and then you can go to the other side where the main dining area is. In the back they have an area for private larger group dining, as well. I decided to sit at the bar in the main dining area. The waitress was friendly and helpful in recommending some of their more popular dishes. I decided to start things off with a little seaweed salad. I was surprised with the portions. I've never had this much salad. It was fresh and delish! For my main course, I ordered the Mongolian filet and a few specialty sushi rolls my waitress recommended. Two of the rolls were good, but one was way too salty to eat. The Mongolian filet wasn't what I expected but it was ok. I was expecting the more traditional Mongolian brown sauce, but this didn't compare to any Mongolian sauce I've ever had. I eat a lot of Asian cuisine and I just felt it didn't taste that Asian to me. Having said that, the filet bites were well cooked and tender. Overall, I enjoyed my experience. I'd order the Dragon Maki roll again, but I would probably try some different items the next time I visit.
