We've eaten there several times and have had some very good meals there. However today I thought I would try their sweet and sour pork. I've had the dish at many different places over the years how this was the most disappointing one I have ever had more pineapple than pork and the pork that was in it was so blan and flavorless and the batter wasn't crispy, more like under cooked mush. read more

Being from Miami, FL it was hard to find a late night place that i truly enjoy. I have to say that Wokcano does not disappoint. Very good happy hour deals, and a nice club like ambience. Some of my fav late night happy hour items include, the garlic wings, (bomb) the honey shrimp, and the smoky sunset roll. Staff is friendly, and managers are pretty cool too. Def recommend this place to anyone in burbank and surrounding areas. read more

I'm blown away that people think this place is less than average. My girlfriend and I agree that this is the best place in Burbank. If you don't like sushi, they have great entrees. The price is pretty normal ($12 a plate) and the entree portions are pretty darn large. The sushi is very good and the atmosphere is even better. read more

The atmosphere here is nice, parking is hard to find, though. The food was very good. We had the minced chicken lettuce cups, steamed chicken dumplings, aromatic shrimp, and yellow curry chicken. All were very good, the shrimp standing out. Portions on the entree's were big enough to share with an appetizer. When we arrived, the restaurant was more than half empty, and still there was a wait. Turns out they didn't have enough waitresses on staff. We ended up eating at the bar. BTW, happy hour 4-7 Sunday through Thursday. read more

I LOVE the double kung pao here. But I HATE the service. I'm not talking bout the waiters either (they're awesome), I mean BEFORE you sit down. We walk in last night at about 12:45 a.m. 2 couples, the place is sorta packed but not really. There is a 6 person booth available and they sat us at a half booth. And I pointed to the empty booth and asked if we could sit there. The B*tch says we need to keep it open in case we have a lager group come in. Yes this is at 12:45 A.M.!!! Suddenly, my lovely buzz wore off and I was just pissed. pissed and hungry. worst part is, it wasn't the first time. never have I ever had this happen anywhere else. You need to keep the customer who is INSIDE the restaurant happy. last time I was so upset we left and went to BJ's across the street. And although I didn't have my kick ass double kung pao, at least I had excellent service. I love you Wokcano but you need a new manager before I can give you more then 2 stars. read more

Wokcano Burbank did an excellent job this afternoon. They housed our Carrier Appreciation for 100 people party. We had amazing food and open bar with top shelf liquor from 3pm-6pm. We also had gigantic photo booth, that was a hit! Thank you Wokcano! Today's Menu: Ribeye Steak Skewers Chicken Meatballs Fried Seafood Eggrolls w/shrimp and avocado Tuna Tartare with Crispy Rice Truffle Tuna Pizza Grilled Tomatoes Spicy Tempura Roll Everything was amazing! I am looking forward to our next party there! Thank you! read more

I'm not sure why people hate on a restaurant because of their prices .. Obviously if a place has a nicer decor, you should expect to pay slightly more for your food. This is the nicest Sushi/Chinese restaurant in Burbank. Yes, their prices are slightly higher, but it's got such a fantastic ambiance in there, i dont mind paying an extra few bucks! They have DELICIOUS Chinese dishes -- Their Black Pepper Beef Mignon is AMAZING, their garlic eggplant dish is one of the best I've ever had (and i LOVE eggplant) .. and their salad is HANDS DOWN the best ginger dressing salad out there. I'm not big on sushi, but my boyfriend is, and he loves their rolls! read more

Do NOT waste your money here. This place is horrible. I'd been to this place a few times a couple of years ago and it was great! The actual restaurant is really cool. I actually really dig the vibe....but that's it. I don't know if they are under new management or what but the past two times I have ordered delivery from them I have been SO disappointed. Tonight I ordered the seafood wrap and the fruit medley salad. The warp was actually pretty good. It was clearly fake seafood and I LOVE seafood so I know the difference (..didn't know I could be a seafood snob but here I am!) but it was still good. THE FRUIT MEDLEY SALAD IS DISGUSTING. I read what was in it and it sounded pretty yummy!! But it was foul. The mixture of flavors is not only disgusting, but the fruit they put in is depressing. Not to mention the snotty textures I found within the salad. I still don't know what they were..I had to toss it. It was so incredibly foul I can't even elaborate enough. I was outraged by that horrible salad. SO NOT WORTH the money. I'm livid that for a second time I gave this place a bunch of money for nasty food. I haven't tried their sushi though..maybe that's good? I'm sure they are pretty good because the pics look amazing. But everything else is a big bust. Lesson learned!!!!! read more

I have been here many times and the food is awesome. What made tonight special was the manager Jose. The chicken curry was bland tonight( usually very flavorful). When I told him he not only took it off the bill he made me a fresh one made correctly to go. Awesome customer service guys!!! When we ate it the next day it was the old wonderful flavor we were used to, Thanks Jose!!!! read more

I have been to this location several times; I love the happy hour here. $3 sake bombs and inexpensive appetizers. Like most places, for happy hour pricing, you must sit in the bar area. They have two bars, one at the front of the restaurant and one in back. If you can't sit in the front, it's not as fun in the back. The atmosphere is great, lively and relaxing, just what one needs after a long day. But again, the back bar, it's weird in there, they always have some loud sports game on, not exactly the chill environment after a long day. The food is really good too! The service here has always been great, once in a while it's sub par, but not enough to not return. I would recommend this place to anyone in Burbank to try out. read more

Went here with a friend quite some time ago but I order delivery/to-go from time to time! Variety of food where I believe it could be a fusion of American and Asian for a few particular items like their chow mein-like dish that includes parmesan cheese. -1 star just because my first experience wasn't that great in terms of food. Service was great but my shrimp entree (can't recall the name) was just oh so salty. Came with rice but it was too salty for my taste! My to-go items have been pretty good thus far so I'm keeping this at a good 3 stars. Sushi can be found here along with other Asian dishes! Always hear their alcoholic drinks are great but I have yet to try them! Atmosphere is great during nighttime with their dim lighting. I've tried only a few items but they haven't failed me! A plus is that they're open late so this place is great for people with late night cravings or after a night outing! read more

I've been here a few times now, and I haven't been disappointed with anything - except the sushi. All other menu items have been great, especially the Pad Thai, which had a good portion of chicken and shrimp cooked to perfection. Great tasting noodles, and I had no problems with service, etc. However, I was disappointed the second time around when I sat at the sushi bar. I just don't think it's that kind of restaurant. The short selection of sushi rolls are bland and over priced. I would NOT go to this place just for the sushi. It wasn't horrible, it just isn't worth the price you'll pay. But, like I said, everything else on the menu is great. read more

Desiree and Chris are by FAR the best bartenders in town. We (my BF and I) love bar hopping in Burbank and have seen our fair share of bartenders in the area. Wokano in Burbank is worth coming to just to meet these two (not to mention the food is INCREDIBLE and the happy hour is near impossible to beat...) read more

Got into town late and was starving so take that into account. However, Sushi was very good and staff was pleasant for 0130. Good choice of draft beer and really good martinis! read more

Where do I start with Wokcano. Know the delicious sushi, they have much more to offer then just fish. The happy hour menu is always the best if you ever come by for drinks & some appetizers with friends. Besides the fact that I am a regular here lol the customer service has been beyond amazing from day one. Bartender Jen & server Lisa are my Favorite. They are the best when I'm dining or just picking up. Manager G always makes sure I have everything I need for my order. Very nice over the phone while placing an order, everything is perfect. Hence why I keep coming back every other week & sometimes more!! I love everyone they are the best:) read more

We would come to this place at least twice a month. But after the service today when we ordered to go will find a new place. Kabuki is just a block away. All this thanks to Alen the host. After ordering a to go order and being told 20 mins wait we go to pick up which 35 mins past they said few more mins. After that 20 more mins past we approached Alen to ask how much longer since it's been almost an hour and we're told 20 mins. His respond was can't you see we are busy! Canceled my order and got a refund will not go there again! Will take my business elsewhere and will make sure everyone knows of the service they give!!!! read more

Me and my fiancé went here on Tuesday before we went to the movies. We got the for the end of happy hour which has some great choices on the menu. We had Yellowtail Sashimi and Salmon Sashimi (Easier to type out that say out loud haha) which were both great, yellow tail being the best option, we also had shrimp tempura roll and the spicy crab tempura roll, no let me tell you when i say the spicy crab tempura roll was amazing, i could have literally had another 3 orders of this! It was sooooo good!!! The overall experience was great, our waitress was great, food was timely and was great value for what we got. Very happy with this spot and will definitely return! read more

So I love the food at Wokano, no matter what you order is always tasty. What I don't like is that their happy hour menu has changed to higher price and less food. I'm glad the quality and taste is the same but much more expensive and smaller portions. I understand they have to raise the prices since the cost is so high but at least keep the portions the way it was. read more

Such a great place to have a drink and some awesome Asian cuisine. John, the bartender is super cool, as well as the hostess, Cierra. Will be back again and again! read more

Delicious food! Sit in the Backhouse area (outside seating) the atmosphere is great. The Honey Walnut shrimp is a definite must! Wasn't a big fan of the Chicken/Shrimp Pad Thai though. Sushi rolls we got were the 'Late Night Party Roll' & a simple Philadelphia roll with Jalapeños. read more

Ambiance and food are amazing. Great location, usually a little bit on the busier side but definitely worth it. Many seafood options. I didn't try them but my table said that the oysters were heavenly. I will be back whenever I'm in Burbank. read more

I really enjoy this location due to the amazing service by Anthony the floor manager and Hector our waiter can't wait for our next visit .

POOR management and terrible customer service skills. I've ordered take out and dined in probably over 50 times as it's the only decent Chinese food in the area; unfortunately, after todays experience I will never go here again. Every time they mess up my order. I always get their Chinese chicken salad with the Ginger dressing and 3/4 times they mess up the dressing. Several times they've forgotten the soy sauce and items in my order.l. A few weeks ago I picked up the Chinese salad and the mandarins in it didn't taste right, they were spoiled. I called them and spoke to the manager just to give them a headS up. I said I'm not calling for a refund just letting them know so they don't serve it. He puts me on hold then comes back to say I tasted them in the kitchen and they taste just fine. The proper response should have been "thank you very much for bringing that to our attention, I will look into it". Today my husband picked up dinner and as always they forgot the orange chicken. I called them and spoke to the manager, Frank. And I could have sworn it was the same guy I spoke to about the mandarins. Rude and disrespectful. He says oh ok I'm sorry I'll prepare it now you can come pick it up. I asked it someone or he himself can deliver it he says no that's not protocol. I told him I'm going to call their corporate office because they keeps happening and with a smug attitude he says "go right ahead". It's not so much his response but his tone of voice and his sarcasm. They seriously need to brush up on their customer service skills. So not acceptable!! read more

Overpriced, but delicious. I came here for my birthday dinner and I liked the servings but man, this place is EXPENSIVE for what you get. Serving wise, it's lacking, although the servers are friendly. The atmosphere is what I think you pay for, the inside is really nice and romantic. Good for a date, definitely not so good for a party with hungry teenagers. I liked the oyster shooters, but other than that, nothing jumps out at me. I wouldn't come back unless it was to impress a date, there is better value everywhere else. The Good: + The atmosphere + Food is decent. The Not-So Good: - Prices are way too high. - Parking sucks. read more

Overall: 3 Stars cuisine: Asian fusion Cost: $$ Taste: Above average Portions: average Last visited: 12/29/2009 Other: went here with a friend to talk about real estate. It was pretty good in a round about way, but wouldn't be the first place that I suggest when eating out. read more

Good pad thai and sushi at a reasonable price, and the servers were all really nice. It wasn't the most amazing food I've ever had, but was a far cry from the tastelessness a few people have described. But now that I've read about the chocolate-covered fortune cookies in these other reviews, I'm disappointed that I got a normal fortune cookie. read more

Amazing food. Make sure to look established or you will get shitty service. I highly recommend the honey walnut shrimp! read more

The server wasn't very attentive but everything else was good. They honored giving me a discount from my employer even when I didn't know about it. I will come back. read more

I like wokcano, I have been in most of their locations, this one is close one of my favorite one, parking structure is right behind the restaurant with many spaces, we came here this Saturday night , below are the food we order: -crispy garlic Brussels sprout(best ) -honey walnut shrimp (this is what I always come to wokcano for, very good as usual ) -black pepper beef mignon ( very tender and tasty -pad Thai noodles( good as usual) -red dragon roll( very fresh ) -crispy garlic chicken wings( best I ever had) Over all, food is very good here, and staffs are very friendly , I highly recommend wokcano read more

Ordered the calamari (overly greasy, crappy tempura batter), spicy garlic chicken w/ broccoli (not spicy, not garlicy, no flavor, no kick), and the yeung chow fried rice (so-so). Service was decent. I only saw a bartender, host, busboy, and waiter (with the entire floor being handled by just the one waiter and one busboy). I don't blame these two who were juggling more than they should have though. Management is responsible... Ambiance and setting were nice though. I read some decent reviews about the sushi, but I am doubtful I'll ever come back to try it. read more

The sushi is not good, but you can go for the other food and the atmosphere. Bar is nice ! read more

Try this location for being convenient and Offering good table service and was one of The few places open Christmas Day. Wonton soup is really tasty as well as the Rest of the menu. Don't forget to eat their pastry it's delicious. read more

I've been to wokcano a few times now and its a pretty badass spot. I usually stop by on the weekends when they have happy hour all day on Sundays! I usually get started with a saki bomb and a stella which rounds up to roughly 6 bucks together (can't beat that) and then I get a spicy tuna roll and a California roll who are also on the happy hour menu among a wide variety of choices with very affordable prices. The staff is incredibly friendly, my servers are very helpful, as well as the managers who are seen working as hard as the staff does around the restaurant. The restaurant itself is very calm and peaceful, I walk in and out often and never once I was disappointed with my experience! I've been a client at the Burbank Wockano for a while and I will be for a very long time!!!! read more

This review is based off my experience ordering through GrubHub.com I have a two year old and a 2 month old and was too exhausted to cook anything and my husband is at work all night. Went on grubhub to see what was close by that will deliver. Finally decided on wokcano to treat myself. I ordered the following: 1 California roll 1 miso soup 1 vegetable tempura 1 garlic noodles with Parmesan cheese 1 eel and avocado roll 1 spicy tuna roll My total in the end with a grubhub discount was $47. Also I added a 15% tip at check out. My mistake for doing that after my experience! It was estimated that my order would arrive between 9:20 an 9:30. Surprisingly, it arrived at 9pm. The delivery guy didn't ring my door bell or knock but yelled at my door. That didn't sit well with me but it's ok. I sign the receipt and get my bag! Open my bag and everything was individually boxed. As I set it all out on the table I was a bit disappointed in the presentation. My sushi rolls were all a skew. So I try the tempura first because veggie tempura is my fave! Sooo disappointed, it was sooo cakey and thick. One of the vegetables had so much batter it wasn't even fully cooked and I took a picture to post on here. You can see straight flour on the inside and uncooked batter!!! So so so disappointing. Then, I served my toddler some of the noodles. He liked them and ate all that I gave him and I too did enjoy them. Next I tried 3 pieces of each sushi because I was saving the rest for my husband when he got home from work. They were all sub-par at best. The eel and avocado roll had 2 pieces that were just all messed up and looked like they had been made a whole while before and just thrown in the container. Sushi was bland and very disappointing. Then I had some of the miso soup. It was the only thing that was piping hot and actually good! Then again you really can't mess up miso soup unless you really tried! The only good part of my entire order was the miso soup. The noodles were ok but not amazing. This was my first experience trying wokcano and I probably won't do it again. I would have rather spent my $47 on something else! Really disappointed in this place if you couldn't tell already. I won't recommend this place either. Overbattered undercooked tempura with sub-par poorly displayed sushi, average noddles and good miso soup. Yeah I won't recommend this place to anyone I know. I only gave it 2 stars because of the miso soup and the speed of service, but maybe if they took a little longer my food might have been cooked and displayed and packed properly. :/ read more

I have it 3 stars because I like the location. I love how it's open so late.. I like the inside decor and atmosphere.., the service is ok.. The food is ok.. I'm just upset that the food quality has completely dropped.. We used to come here every week with family friends the food was so good they have Chinese food and sushi so it was perfect but the past few months the sushi has shrunk .. The handroll is the size of my two fingers.. The rolls had thin slices of fish on it.. It's just sad.. It's a perfect restaurant that is trying really hard to save money.. read more

Been here twice for happy hour because it's walking distance from a relative. The food is just okay to me. Portions could be bigger but we did mostly order appetizers for happy hour so maybe that's why???? Would come back but only for happy hour. Liked the alcohol more than the food. Customer service has been good both times I was here so that's a plus. read more

The food here is hella bomb. I was here last week with the fam. We ordered the seafood soup, spicy maki combo, teriyaki chicken and a Philly role. Everything was bomb especially their teriyaki. Their sauce is the perfect balance not to teriyaki-y but just teriyaki-y enough. The food was great and the restaurant environment was kewl and modern. I wish I came here during NBA or NFL season cause all they had on TV was Canadian football. The only reason this place is missing a star was because our food came a little late due to certain circumstances but the manager/owner Gee was very accommodating. If he didn't come out to talk to us and explain what happened I would have thrown them 3 stars but he was an cool guy. I'll be back for sure. read more
