    Under new management! Excellent customer service. Love their lunch special, super good deal, including soup & egg roll. Private parking lot & street parking.

    I've been looking for an authentic Chinese restaurant and this place did not disappoint. Every dish pictured are my usual go-to dishes. They were all very flavorful. The salt and pepper pork chops were crispy, just the way I like it! Service was wonderful and attentive. The place was also clean. 10/10 would recommend.

    11/2024 - Are you in Burbank and totally craving Chinese food ? Look no more Western Wok is the spot. Not only do they have Chinese cuisine but a few Thai dishes. To the owner if you're reading this please consider increasing your selection of Thai dishes. Our favorites... BBQ pork Bao BBQ pork ribs Wor Wonton soup Sizzling Rice soup Pad Thai Thai ice tea Sweet and Sour pork Pan Fried noodle combo Salt And Pepper fried tofu Thai Spicy Fried Rice....super spicy with Serrano chili but so good. Did I forget anything??? Please add more Thai dishes to the menu Needs improvement... Hot and Sour Soup Mushu pork/chicken Ample parking in the lot and street.

    The food is good for the area of Burbank and The Valley for the convenience of Chinese Food that's not "Panda Express" or some "Steam Tray" styled place, not that those are bad per se (and we actually do like Panda Express too!) What I like about restaurants like this and Chinese Food is eating "Family Style" where you can order several dishes and share in diverse items among a group. Usually if you order 1 main dish per adult person in the group (i.e., 4 dishes for 4 people) it's pretty safe and if you like leftovers or have heavy eaters, maybe order a different ratio. We ordered Tofu (Mild no spice special order), Noodles Beef Chow Fun), Noodles (Combo Chow Mein), Chicken, Salt and Pepper Pork, Fish fillet and a Combo Meat Dish for 5 people we ordered 6 dishes and Western Wok gives complimentary (Free, i.e., no charge) steamed white rice too. We had leftovers for 2 adult meals (so in other words, we could have fed 7 people instead of 5, easily with the 6 dishes we ordered) The staff is nice. I actually called and was asking how long it took to prepare the food, as I was coming from a great distance about 1 hr away, and the lady told me NOT to order online as sometimes those orders don't get the same immediate attention as just calling in direct on the phone and speaking to them live, an actual human being. :) - - So, the said it takes 15-20 minutes roughly to prepare an order fresh, cooked to order and hot to go. I waited and timed how to pace an order from phone call to pick up and it worked perfectly. Our meal was $100, so the avg cost per person for lunch was $20 and everyone was satisfied and there were leftovers. The only knock I have on this, and I'm used to authentic Cantonese Chinese Cuisine, is the chow mein noodles done crispy was kinda weak, not fresh egg noodles but had some sort of freeze dried noodle stiffness that wasn't great. It was okay and the sauce and protein (shrimp, chicken and beef) Parking was easy and convenient.

Thai food at its best is vibrant and flavorful, and this was the farthest from that. I'm honestly stunned this place got such good reviews. And the service was awful. The first round of food came and we waited more than 20 minutes for the second round. The third round came out quicker after that, but it still wasn't great. The server didn't stop by and explain why there was such a delay and didn't apologize for such a long wait. When half the table is eating and the other half has to wait around a half hour to eat, it really is a terrible experience. I also had to go up to the counter to request a check and had to go to the counter again to pay, otherwise we might still be waiting for them to figure it out. And charging an 18% "service fee" for a party of six, when you provide such poor service, is incredibly disrespectful. It's no wonder we were ignored, because the server knew she was going to get 18% regardless.

    Hidden Burbank Gem! Creative Dishes & Great Vibes…read more Not from Burbank, but so glad I found Summe Buffalo! If you're looking for authentic Thai with a creative twist, this is it. It's a total gem with a cozy ambiance, plenty of street parking, and a 5-7 PM happy hour that is a total steal. The Standouts: * Larb with Chips: Such a cool, crunchy twist on a classic. The extra texture was a game-changer! * Special Pad Thai: Perfectly balanced sweetness. They actually listened when I asked for a milder spice level, which I really appreciated. * Green Beans: Hands down amazing--definitely don't skip these! * The Vibe: Super friendly and attentive staff. It's clear they are a local favorite for delivery too, but the dine-in experience was great. I'm already planning on trying the pork tacos next time I'm in town. Adding this to my permanent list of Thai recommendations!

Unfortunately, my second visit wasn't the best experience. When I walked up to the register, two servers completely ignored me. I understand it can get busy, but a simple "we'll be right with you" would have gone a long way. While I was waiting, the phone started ringing. Instead of acknowledging me, the waitress walked directly in front of me to answer it even though she could've easily gone behind the register. It came off as dismissive, especially since she wasn't doing anything else beforehand. That interaction left a bad impression, and it makes me hesitant to come back despite how much I enjoyed the food the first time.
