    Snow Pea Stir-Fry
    Michelle B.

    Met my girlfriends here for our monthly night out. To say this place is busy - is an understatement! There is a constant flow of to go orders! After trying their food - I can see why!! I had the snow pea stir fry with beef and wow was it good! Perfectly balanced sauce. Not too sweet and not drenched all over the meat and veggies. Staff was friendly and brought our orders out to the table. Open seating but music playing so that you can talk and it not be dead silent.

    Out for a motorcycle ride, and stopped in. We have been wanting to try this place for some time. The issue with Springfield though is there is a Chinese restaurant every block, and they are all hit or miss. What attracted us to this place was the outdoor patio seating. You would think more places have outdoor seating in Springfield, but they don't. Walking in the place seemed dimly lit, and a little small. You place your order at the front; pay then they bring your order to your table. Our waitress was nice, and had good recommendations. My wife got garlic tofu, and I went with the general chicken. We decided to take advantage of the beautiful day, and sit outside. Our food arrived pretty quickly, and it was presented fabulously. It seriously looked like a picture! Everything was fresh, and you could tell; not just by seeing it, but also taste! It was seriously some of the best "American" Chinese food I have ever had! Will be back, and will tell everyone if you are on this side of town wanting Chinese come here!!

    Been coming to The Wok (formerly China Wok) for close to 15yrs now. Although the name, ambiance and prices have changed, the food has continued to be the best in town. You have to get General Chicken and the Beef Lo Mien. You will not find better bang for your buck in Springfield. The only thing I will note is the newly renovated decorating is very...odd? They have replaced their more traditional decor for a country farmhouse aesthetic which is just very strange. There's also a patio now with jenga? Thankfully I just come for the food, but it's a strange direction.

    New decor, Nice!

    Updating my review from last year: This review below was meant for the location at 1730 E Republic…read moreRd Ste A Springfield, MO 65804. My bad, I reviewed the wrong one, but I'm sure this location is good too! Here's my review from last year on the other location: I could tell by looking at the photos and reviews on Yelp that this place was going to be wonderful. Thankfully, when we finally gave it a shot, we were not disappointed. Talk about made fresh. Everything was so delicious and freshly prepared. Flavors were spot on. The service was fantastic. They always made sure that our drinks were filled and we had everything that we needed. My absolute favorite dish was the fried green beans with minced pork. Get it with extra minced pork and you'll love it. The steamed dumplings and pancake appetizer are also really good. Highly recommend! They also have clean restrooms with an extra large sink outside the restroom area so you can quickly wash your hands if you don't actually need to use the restroom. Pretty cool. We can't wait to go back for more!

    Interestingly enough, I gave this place a shot because it was on Yelp's "Top 100" list for Chinese…read morefood in the US.... In Springfield of all places??? I was at once both intrigued and more than a little doubtful. However, I've now been here half a dozen times (every time I visit Springfield) and I can say that most of what I've had has been extremely authentic, especially the spicy stuff! Having lived in LA and also in Asia, I'm pretty strict about what I am willing to call authentic. Corner 21 isn't perfect and a few of the dishes fell flat, but you won't find anything better in town. I'm giving it full marks for being such a pleasant surprise in a seriously unexpected place. edit: Almost forgot to mention that the portions are quite big. Portion sizes were definitely more Springfield size than big city sizes! Recommend - Szechuan Spicy Chicken, Dry Fried Green Beans, Traditional Sweet and Sour Pork, Szechuan Boiling Fish Don't recommend - Yang Zhou Fried Rice (It tasted fine, but it's supposed to use bbq and not spam)
