It was good!! The drive through service was a bit aggressive and rushed. Couldn't figure out what they were saying. They got our order correct though. The food was delicious! Especially the lo mien. read more

For a so-called "Chinese Delivery" option, you can only order via Uber, which does not allow for "remove" options for people who have allergies. What should be a standard of $30.00 for a delivery order with two entrees became a $50.00 Uber Delivery Fee. I cannot begin to overstate how disappointing this has been. I came to visit my sister and this has been a simply silly and disappointing experience. read more

Not sure what all the bad reviews about service are for, but maybe the employees have change. The service was great! The food was great as well as the portion sizes. We got dumplings, sesame chicken, and fried rice and all was $17 which is pretty good! Definitely don't let the reviews scare you away! read more

Friday my boyfriend was really craving some asian food and he wanted to try a new place and this is what we found. We ordered orange chicken, general tso's, lo mien, and the two main entrees coke with fried rice and we ordered it for take out. Very good price for how large the portions were. We got it home and we demolished it, but in reality we barely put a dent in it, lol. The orange chicken was delightful, the sauce was tasty and the chicken was crispy and hot, same goes for the general tso's! The rice had a wonderful flavor, and don't get me started on the lo mein, great flavor and decent sized shrimp in it, oh man was it good!! And it was good the next day, if anything the sauces marinated even deeper int the chicken. Def will be back in the near future for some tasty Asian food takeout. And maybe I'll take some photos to show off the large portions. read more

I didn't like the way this restaurant treated me, and it's expensive for how little they give. Honestly, next time I'd rather stay hungry than have to come back here. I had never written a review before, but I prefer to warn other people about the bad service they give here. read more

The only decent thing was their hot and sour soup. I ordered the sweet and sour chicken and it was so dry! Terrible quality chicken. Even their edamame was missing sea salt. read more

I've frequented the establishment for years, normally I order online and have the meals delivered. This was the first time we ordered over the phone and picked up. Our order was quite simple : 2 large veggie rice with eggs, carrots, and peas only and a shrimp fried rice, extra shrimp (charged $3 for extra when no extra were visible) and eggs only and sugar biscuits. There was a reception issue so we hung up and called back on another phone. My total was almost $44. I was asked questions like what don't I want on the rice? Idk, I don't make the rice and don't know what comes on it when all I get is shrimp and eggs. We received the order and my shrimp fried rice had shrimp, carrot, peas, and onions. I took the order back and the guy who worked the drive through on 11/29/25 was so rude. He told me he repeated the order to me. Well onions were never mentioned in the conversation. He said I could just said no onions. I said or I could have told you the only things I wanted. He proceeded to tell me what other customers do. Then asked me, what did I want him to do? I told him he had 2 options, make the rice the way I wanted or give me my money back, those were his only options. He took the rice, remade it, and gave it to me wrong again this time this time with shrimp, carrots and peas. I stayed at the window for a moment and no one returned. I left with the rice and gave it away. I WILL NEVER GIVE THIS ESTABLISHMENT ONE PENNY MORE OF MY MONEY. Customers beware! read more

If I could give 0 stars I would! Just went there today for the first time ever because my daughter went to the CareNow next to it and wanted to try it. We were the only ones in the restaurant but waited 30 mins. The food was mediocre at best when we received it. The worst part was when I received my food I was confused as to why I had those type of noodles with my entree. I asked the guy upfront if I could switch them out or just have fried rice instead. He was very rude and hostile and told me no, you ordered that so that's what you got. I said I understand that's what I ordered but I had no idea there were different types on noodles other than lo mein. He said you got what you ordered so I'm not replacing anything. I told him this is my first time in and I had no idea I would be getting these super thick noodles instead. He started yelling and telling me we don't do refunds or replacements, you get what you ordered and that's it. The worst customer service I've ever experienced! Definitely would not ever recommend to anyone. read more

Great food. Dont let the old reviews on this place fool you. Ive tried the orange chicken and the sesame chicken so far and both have been fantastic. 10/10 recommend read more

I've gone here for many months, and today I was completely disrespected. my mom went up there and made the order, when she came back it was wrong. I called up there and they said she couldn't understand them, and it was her fault. it's whatever, I'll go back up there and get my right order and switch it out. I didn't touch the food. well they repeated the order, it was correct. I get back (while I'm working) and it's wrong.... again!!! so I called and said hey this is wrong again, but I can't come back up there I also want to add, my mom is a generous person. she tipped them $20! he got into an argument with me and said to come get the tip and never come back. I definitely won't ever be going back, neither will my family. read more

I'm usually pretty easy going with reviews but this one is lucky to get 1 . Ordered for delivery a couple egg rolls and shrimp lo mein. The total was $17.50 but the app wouldn't let me complete it until the total was $15 without tax. So added a cup of egg drop soup. Why not! Took an hour for delivery but that's the highlight. Besides the food still being hot. Dove into the egg drop soup and no kidding....there was 0 flavor. NADA. Even after I dumped a package of soy sauce in. I had to stop eating it. The lo mein was very mediocre and somewhat bland too. The highlight was going to hopefully be the shrimp....NOPE. So overcooked they were almost like eating rocks. Can't recommend any part of this meal. read more

I'm not sure when, but this place changed management (and maybe even the name) because I'd been here before and wasn't too crazy to return but the family kept raving on how good the food is....so we went. I wasn't expecting to be able to order the lunch option during the weekend, but we were able to. We ordered a shrimp fried rice with extra egg, combo lo mein and honey sesame chicken, and it all came with chicken egg rolls. We dined in and the food came quick and everything looked bomb (not dry and flavorful) and IT WAS. The servings were huge and of course we had to get to go plates. The restaurant has a drive thru, so again, service is quick. I'll return and what can I say, the family was right. read more

I just had broccoli chicken and it was wonderful. I was hesitant due to other reviews, but it is very convenient to the hospital next door. I ordered at about 2:30 inside. It was hot and fresh. I highly recommend and I'll go back. read more

The food was extremely bland no flavor at all. We ordered shrimp fried, honey sesame chicken, and the lemon pepper chicken wings. The fried shrimp was extremely bland and the shrimp overcooked and tasted horrible. The wings were extremely over seasoned to the max. It seemed like they threw seasoning in the box and gave it to us. The honey sesame chicken was bland as well as the rice. Even after putting soy sauce and mandarin sauce on everything it was still barely edible. Rice was undercooked and as well overcooked! Don't waste your money here at all. read more

Nice people. Great food! Great value for the price! Made when you order. Never sits around! read more

Food was disgusting never finished it.People I know got food poisoning here both times they attended definitely eat at your own risk!!!

Hit it out of the park again!! Fresh hot and delicious!! Can't wait till I can eat inside again read more

This review may not come as a surprise (based on other reviews), but I definitely feel it's worth mentioning. Don't order - even if you're desperate. I ordered pad thai (p.s. they charge for peanuts) and found a hair in my food. In addition, they forgot an egg roll. We also ordered orange chicken and crab wontons. I called about the hair (and missing egg roll) and after explaining it to the nice lady that answered the call - A man took over the call and I explained it again. He was definitely perturbed and said they can send another Pad Thai - ummm...no, I mean at this point -this pregnant mama- didn't want to risk it. I mean, if a hair is gonna make it in the food, then by me complaining, I may end up with something worse hidden. And I told him so. Of course, he didn't like that - I mean, I wouldn't either as it was an accusation about their integrity and I may have been wrong to say it - BUT I was feeling that way. Anyways, things were tense and it would've ended better for everyone as I was only requesting a refund of the Pad Thai. But, they state they are unable to do that. And so, I demanded the full refund. If my only option is another food item, and that doesn't appeal to me, then that doesn't leave much room for anything else. So, naturally we are parting ways. I won't be ordering again from Rice Wok Express and they let me know they blacklisted me (for complaining about hair in my food & getting a refund). read more

My husband and I ordered through door dash. The door dasher called us and stated that our food had been given away. She stood there and waited for them to re-make our entire order. We got our food and the vegetable pad Thai had no vegetables, different type of noodle, and some other things that do not go in pad Thai(ordered here before). I called the location only to have the lady be extremely rude, refuse to give her name, refuse to help, and the manager then said you can call tomorrow. Super unprofessional and will never order from here again. The food my husband had was mediocre not bad not good. read more

Very tasty! Tasted like food you would get from a solid Chinese buffet. Pro-tip: don't order through Door Dash or some other service like that. Rice Wok Express delivers and it only costs $2! read more

Place is decent for what it is. It's no game changer, pretty much like any other American Chinese place; not my favorite in the least, but will do in a pinch. They cook it well though. The service is good. read more

Ordered online, VERY RUDE. went to pick up my order and he argued with me about my order. He got my order wrong and he complained how hard it was to hear me and I clarified... CUSTOMERS ARE ALWAYS RIGHT, well he doesnt get that. No loyalty. This doesn't even deserve a star. DONT RECOMMEND ANYONE TO GO HERE TO GET FOOD. read more

There's not a great deal of chinese restaurants around Denton, this is a fairly good choice out of the ones that we have tried. It's a pretty small restaurant, far better for takeout than to dine in. They are pretty stingy on the rice so you may want to order extra. The main dish is generous though. Their orange chicken is good but a little spicy which I think takes away from the orange flavor. The garlic chicken is also pretty good. read more

This place is amazing !! Probably one of the best Chinese food places in Denton ! The place is on the quiet side as many people take the food to go rather than eating there, i got the dinner serving of broccoli chicken and woah is it huge, deadass couldn't finish it all, they also give a side of fried rice, the sauce on the broccoli chicken I had was extremely flavorful!! I'm def going to come here a hell of a lot more! Probably in my top 5 list of Denton. read more

This is my go to place for Fast Chinese. The food tastes fresh and I'm addicted to the crab regions.

Ordered food from here on a whim when I had a tummy ache. Egg drop soup was the only thing I could think of that sounded good. But I ended up getting that, edamame, rice and steamed veggies and it all was so good read more

On March 20, my daughter and I went (masked) into the restaurant for lunch. The kitchen was visible, but I didn't see any staff at the time I ordered. The cashier wasn't masked, but I looked past that. He was not handling food. We self served our drinks and as we walked back past the cashier, we saw the cooks had reentered the kitchen. none of the cooks were masked. I approached the cashier and told him I was concerned that the cooks went masked-he responded that the new state guidelines didn't require it. I told him that it makes me uncomfortable that the business didn't choose to keep the cooks masked until there is some greater assurance that its "not necessary" for food handlers to mask He shrugged....and said well, the rules don't require it, so we're not. I asked him to cancel my order and refund me, except for my drinks. He willingly compliedthe drinks at no charge. While I appreciate the willingness to refund me, I'm deeply concerned that this business has so little regard for not taking that simple step to protect their customers. read more

After receiving our order (Black pepper beef), it arrived full of mushrooms. No where on the menu did it state it had mushrooms. They credited use a meal, six weeks later we called to place another order, the same guy who gave us the credit said I remember you but it was your fault, kept blaming us for not knowing, and became defensive. I don't care how good a restaurant is, if I don't trust them I'll never trust them with my food. read more

Bad attitude and under cooked food. Avoid at all costs! Won't stand behind their product.

I've come here a few times before and the service was fine. Today they gave me the wrong order and then proceeded to yell at me through the drivers window. A large male man yelled at me through the window. I was so disturbed and quite frighten. I have never experienced such poor customer service. They would not fix the order, or admit the messed up. I didn't mind paying, I just wanted the correct item. They wouldn't refund my order. The man proceeded to yell and mock me through the window. Don't shop here, find somewhere anywhere else. It was a disturbing experience. Save your self the time. read more

Good food, horrible management. Extremely nasty once you call and question a price on something you've ordered . Screaming at me through the phone to the point where my fellow Co workers could hear him. Nasty man. Shouldn't be in customer service if you get so enraged. read more

*HEALTH CODE VIOLATION* Ordered through DoorDash and flagged my shrimp allergy in the comment section of each item. Thankfully the restaurant called but informed me that "everything" is cross contaminated with shellfish (i.e. utensils, surfaces, oils, etc) so I cancelled the order. I'm appreciative that they called but this is very dangerous practice and against food + safety guidelines. If I hadn't flagged the shrimp allergy I wouldn't have been informed of the unavoidable contamination, and would likely be in the hospital as its a deathly food allergy. read more

The Chicken looks like little mice, I'll never go back because the food was just mysterious as hell

I drove across town to come here and ended up leaving before i could order. The Mexican guy working had very very poor customer service. When I asked him what would be a better choice of two items he said "idk" with a crass look on his face and then as i made the choice to simply leave he laughed at me. This experience truly ruined my day and I would not recommend this place to anyone. read more
