If I were smart enough to be the BC valedictorian, Wok n Talk would have been mentioned in my speech. This place got me through college! The food is great. I love the scallion pancakes, crab rangoons, sweet & sour chicken, and any fried rice. The portions are well-suited for the price and tend to leave me with leftovers which is always a plus. The food is always packaged well and piping hot. This past weekend I went inside to eat for the first time and experiences timely service and a clean atmosphere! Give some love to Wok! read more

I've been eating at Wok n Talk (first Mission Hill then Brighton location) since 2013 - it's been a beautiful 8 years together. The Brighton location blows Mission Hill out of the water. It's way more consistent, slightly different pricing and combos, and way better quality ingredients. Here's the must-try favorites: - Teriyaki udon (unreal. just, unreal) - Pork fried rice (full of flavor, sweet and salty) - Chicken + beef teriyaki (the most gigantic pieces of chicken and beef. I get nervous ordering beef on a stick because you never know if you're gonna pay $10 for 3 bites of beef... these are FAT and more tender than tips. Idk how they are making money off these) - Crispy spring rolls (really a vehicle for their delicious tangy duck sauce) - Boneless spare ribs (perfect fat + meat combo, never tough or grizzly) - Pad Thai (as good as you can get from a non-Thai place) - Lo mein (saucy and full of flavor) - Chicken wings (fat as hell - never seen wings so big) - Boba tea (sealed like from a legit tea house... it's worth ordering. Boba is fresh) The combos are around $15 and come with 2 full sized appetizers and a small rice or lo mein - it's a DEAL. Chicken on a stick = $8, rice $9, rangoons $8... and you get it all for $15. God bless They have a VERY expansive menu and I really haven't had anything bad from there. I've gotten delivery when I lived in Allston and now I pick up because I'm way out of delivery range. There's always street parking available and the lady is super friendly. Check your bag, no restaurant is perfect and on occasion they may forget an item but it's pretty rare. The worst thing about this place is that they don't open until 4pm. Although it has probably saved me a fortune by not being available at lunchtime. In conclusion... I strongly disagree with the negative reviews on here. I've blown more than 5k in my years addicted to this place and the food is truly crave-worthy and memorable. Just get the damn udon, pork fried rice, and chicken & beef on a stick! YOU'RE WELCOME! read more

Wok n Talk - Teriyaki chicken udon, pork fried rice, spring rolls, boneless spare ribs - Asian Fusion Near Me - Brighton, Massachusetts

Wok n Talk has been around for a few years now, but I was always avoiding it because of its prices. It is located in Oak Square as not the only Chinese restaurant around, but when compared with Brighton Center it has always been a little more expensive. However, it is definitely worth the price upgrade. This past weekend I ordered a rice bowl with orange chicken (about $9) and their crab rangoons ($4.25 for 4). I got the orange chicken with fried rice and I found the rice decently flavorful. Not my favorite but it definitely had some flavor and some vegetables inside. The orange chicken was spicier than I imagined, but it was good. Decent portion for the price. The chicken tasted fresh and the sauce was good. I definitely enjoyed this and would order it again. The crab rangoons were ok. They tasted like they only had cream cheese in them, which was a little disappointing. I don't think they had anything else in them based on looking inside. Overall, I'll probably come back. I wish it were a little cheaper, but it's the best Chinese in the area, and the food was ready in 15 minutes which is perfect for when you have a Chinese food craving. read more

Delicious food and timely delivery. Love the basil Thai rice taste is on point. Still flavoring it.

I live a very short walk from here and every 4-5 months I think "ugh its so convenient, it can't be THAT bad, right?" then it is. The chicken wings and gyoza are ok when not burnt. Everything else I've had is not good and the restaurant is very visibly dirty. I don't like writing bad reviews but I'm writing this one as a reminder to myself to go elsewhere. read more

My final, I must be nuts leaving different reviews on this restaurant, but today ordered my usual. The wings had so much salt I felt like I had salt poisoning. I rinsed them and crisped them back up in the air fryer. Called back to complain. They did not offer to remedy the situation. I order from there a lot, you would think they would want to keep my business. But they said oh sorry, bye bye. Bye bye is right. You can choke on this chicken bone. read more

Small shop in Brighton but is always great. They're open late which is great for the late night meals and they don't take long when making your food. Great fried rice and orange chicken but the lo mein is my favorite. Steam pork buns and the chicken gyoza are my go to. Overall love the place. read more

Wok n Talk - a bag of doughnuts - Asian Fusion Near Me - Brighton, Massachusetts

I saw a review with a fly and hair in the food and I'm not surprised by that. Changing my review in solidarity for that person.

I've only ever had take out because COVID. This is my favorite Chinese take out. The orange chicken is great. Spring rolls are delicious. Udon noodles are amazing. The downsides, I wish they steamed the shrimp shumai instead of frying. And there is a lot of plastic containers. The delivery is fast. And we've never had a bad experience. I love this place. read more

I didn't eat here but I picked up a door dash. I don't recommend eating here based on the fact that it smelled like a bathroom when you walked in, they took longer than they should've to fry the crab rangoons I had to pick up. And while I was waiting, I watched a cook grab Peking raviolis out of the freezer with her bare hand, put some sauce on top, and throw them in the microwave. I'll never eat here read more

This is our go to place for Chinese takeout in the Oak Sq, Brighton Center area. Well prepared and packaged, ample portions, and very tasty. Doesn't look like much from the outside but the quality will win you over. read more

Probably one of the worst Chinese food I have ever had. The vegetable spring rolls had absolutely nothing inside of them. The crab rangoons tasted like it only had cream cheese inside of it. The chicken in all of the dishes we had looked inedible and some of them were so hard to chew. The fried rice really had no taste at all. Very disappointed in this place, I will not be eating here again. read more

Delicious, the orange chicken and rice bowl is affordable and amazing!! Also the scallion pancakes are great.

The steamed buns are delicious!!!! The pork and custard buns are perfectly soft and flavorful, highly recommend, HIGHLY.

Solid, reliable, not fantastic, but always there for you Chinese food. Spicy shacha udon with shrimp good. If you're creative, you can walk outta here with a $5 meal. Ain't that wild? read more

The food is just okay, the service is TERRIBLE. This is the second time someone has "picked up" my order. I wouldn't be so mad if the employees weren't so cavalier and disrespectful about the situations. I'm seriously not coming back here, the food is really not worth it. read more

RATS!!!! I walked past here earlier today and I saw a HUGE rat sliding down a shelving unit in the kitchen against the front window. I've never ate here in all honesty, but I certainly won't after what I saw today! read more

Wok N Talk's been in the neighborhood for about as long as me. Must be fate that I stopped in soon. Don't regret it one bit! For those who are looking for overly greasy Chinese takeout, this ISN'T for you. Know that you're walking into a nice and clean space, only to be greeted by awesome service. The gentleman was very helpful in guiding me along the menu and highlighting the special offers. Great bubble tea (with real tea, not powder) with any order over $15, including other specials. Portion sizes are generous. All in all a wonderful place for healthy and fresh food. Highly recommended! read more

Wok n Talk - Medium Appetizer and Entree Combos (Teriyaki Pork and Black Pepper Beef) with free bubble tea! - Asian Fusion Near Me - Brighton, Massachusetts

Absolutely goated place. The food is always great. Me and my buddies order here a lot and it's worth it every time.

I got the wrong food from wok n talk once- didn't care, still good. They know what's good for me.

First time trying this restaurant... last time, too! Very disappointed. In town for a concert and had late night cravings so we ordered delivery to the hotel. Crab Rangoons, sweet n sour chicken, spring rolls, pork fried rice and teriyaki tofu w/ veggies. Only the fried rice was good, and by good I mean average. Chicken fingers were way too doughy and undercooked. Sweet and sour sauce was unlike any we've ever had, and not in a good way. Crab ran-goons were undercooked , soggy, and the filling tasted, umm... off. Spring rolls were over fried (burnt), then clearly left to sit out, then microwaved... and then cooled off again during delivery. You can just imagine that experience. Having said all that... I haven't the words to describe the teriyaki tofu and veggies... one bite and done. OMG. I give 2 stars because the food arrived quickly, the service was good and the pork fried rice hit the spot. Beware fellow foodies. read more

Completely wrong order and rude staff. My friend ordered a combination plate (mango chicken, chicken teryiaki, w/ white rice, and a water bottle). I ordered tiramisu, drunken noodles, and gum. 1.) They didn't give me anything I ordered in the bag. 2.) My friend receive crab Rangoon, 8 beef teryakis, and fried rice w/ pineapple chicken instead of mango. 3.) Called them, and they had the nerve to say "well I saw the tiramisu get cut" well then you must have delivered to the wrong people, because we didn't receive that cake and we didn't even have the right order at all. Tiramisu is my favorite desert and drunken noodles is one of my favorite foods so why the hell would I be calling if I had that in front of me? I couldn't even eat anything because I had none of my food to eat. And when we complained about receiving the wrong the of rice she says "well you still got rice" - its not even the right type of rice. This is absolutley absurd! 4.) My friend didn't even get his water bottle and doesn't eat anything but chicken so why is it that they are going to only refund me half of my meal when my friend didn't even get what he ordered but received other foods that he doesn't even eat. He can't eat seafood and he's also lalactose so how could he even eat the crab Rangoon, why would he order this??? I even have a screenshot of my order that the resteraunt was not even willing to look at. They know they messed up and sent the wrong order to the wrong person and couldn't even admit it. 5.) Then I call grubhub who calls the resteraunt. Grubhub tells me they can only refund half because they said I still got food and only give me a $10.00 credit for a $40.00 meal. Never will I order from this resteraunt again and unless you want your order messed up too, I wouldn't advise it. Sidenote: My friend accidently gave the delivery guy a $20.00 bill and he was decent / kind / considerate enough to return it to us. So that was the only good thing about this. read more

Placed an order. They charged it and it never came cannot offer a proper judgment on the food.

My girlfriend and I got delivery from here last night. First off the delivery charge is a bit much, $7. I got the orange chicken combo which I enjoyed however, we also ordered the spicy edamame. Not only were they not spicy, but they lacked any sort of seasoning and flavor. Some of them were dark and looked rotten. I have ordered from here before and I usually like it, but this order was no good and I do not recommend the edamame. read more

DISGUSTING!!!!! They should be a shamed to serve that! NEVER AGAIN!!!!! The spareribs were so fatty! Everything was just not right!!!! read more

Great food, efficient service. Always there for those late nights with that delicious takeout.

A very small to go restaurant. I live only 10 minute away by walk or 2-3 minutes by car, so I always come to pick up my own order. Food will usually be ready in 10-15 minute if you can pick it up yourself, but it might just take up to 45-60 minutes if you want them to delivery. Foods are alright delicious. Not something I would want to eat everyday, but would definitely do it when I'm starving and need something quick. read more

My boyfriend and I ordered delivery here tonight (our first time trying Wok n Talk) and we're unimpressed. The Crab Rangoon barely had any filling and even so, it tasted like chives and cream cheese - not crab. The General Gao chicken had very thick, spongy breading and neither it nor the flavor was great. The fried rice was bland too. The pork Lo Mein was overdone and greasy, with what seemed to be the fatty leftovers of spare ribs in it. Overall the food was mediocre at best, and the prices are too high compared to the quality. The delivery was fast (25 minutes), but we won't be ordering from here again. read more

Delivery super fast! Pad Thai is awesome ! Best orange chicken. The Chicken wings taste fantastic like the Kentucky fried chicken

This is your classic go-to Chinese food pick up place. It's fast, cheap, and the food is what you order. They work hard and deliver what I think is worth it. The fried rice my friends and I have had here is good, same with the Lo-mein and spring rolls. read more

The best Asian Fusion food on Washington Street in Brighton. We have eaten at probably all the Asian Fusion places along Washington street, and we always come back to Wok n Talk. Their staff is very friendly and helpful and the food always meets expectations. It's no 5-star restaurant, but when you're looking for that quick, easy dinner, here's your place. The also offer boba/bubble tea, which is alway a bonus. read more

It is very nice to have a place that serves pretty good bubble tea in Oak Square!!! The bubbles were nice and soft.

The staff was really friendly so I will definitely go back and see what else they have to offer. read more

We ordered delivery and it took a while to get there but when it did...it was excellent. The wok rice was awesome and the chicken teriyaki was solid too. I highly recommend it to any one. I also like the fact that they don't use msg in the food. That stuff is no good. read more

Above average food with a great selection. However, using their website to order food will normally result in you ordering from the Jamaica Plain location. So for those trying to order pick up with me gravely disappointed when they walk in to find out their order was not placed. But you can count on a call from the JP location asking when you're picking up. Word of advice, don't pay in advance when ordering pick up. Or deliver. Just call. read more

Very good spot for late night Chinese take out. Delivery service until 2am and food is always made fresh to order. There bubble teas and smoothies are really good and they have a huge selection of food. read more

Wok n Talk - New Asian restaurant in Brighton! - Asian Fusion Near Me - Brighton, Massachusetts

For a 4 star reviewed restaurant, my boyfriend and I CANNOT figure out how Wok n Talk has this. DO NOT support this business. First, there are TWO locations and their website is out of date. The number to call and order is the JP location, which they don't label. We live in Brighton and had to drive to JP to pick up. When my boyfriend got the Brighton location to pick up, the guy the behind the counter was ultimately the most UNHELPFUL person. Our order wasn't at the location and he was completely unaware of where the new location was and offered ZERO help and made no effort to find out. We ordered the spring rolls (pretty good), the boneless spare ribs (fatty, gristly and overall meh), the "orange chicken" (which was delicious but definitely NOT "orange chicken") and the "Mongolian chicken" (GROSS). We ordered extra veggies and didn't get them, but were charged. The Mongolian chicken was inedible. Seriously cannot believe we wasted the time, energy and money to barely eat our dinner. read more
