“My daughter loves this place we came here even on Christmas Day they make nuggets with no sauce for special she's picky there hunan chicken vegetables is very good”

“We are absolutely thrilled that you can finally dine in again at Golden Wok — because let me tell you, takeout was great… but sitting down and enjoying this place in person just hits different. Walking back in felt like a full-on reunion. The smells, the atmosphere, the sound of plates hitting the table — it was like, “YES… we’re back where we belong.” Now let’s talk food. The General Tso’s chicken? Unreal. Perfect balance of sweet, spicy, crispy — the kind of dish where you say “I’ll just have a few bites” and then suddenly you’re guarding the container like it’s your personal treasure. And the Orange Chicken? Same story. Bright, flavorful, crispy perfection. Honestly, if these two dishes teamed up, they could probably take over the entire menu. And the portions… let’s just say you’re not leaving hungry. These are the kind of portions that make you look at the table and think, “Did we accidentally order for a small army?” I’m convinced you could feed a full family, a neighbor, and still have leftovers for a late-night round two. Now I have to address the Dim Sum situation… Because I don’t know who named it, but every time I hear “Dim Sum” I can’t help but think it sounds like something you’d say when the lights aren’t quite bright enough. “Hey can someone turn the lights up? It’s a little… dim sums in here.” I know, I know… terrible joke. But the food? Absolutely not a joke. Between the amazing flavors, massive portions, and the pure joy of being able to dine in again, Golden Wok is back to doing what it does best — making people very, very happy. Pro tip: Come hungry, order the General Tso’s and Orange Chicken, and prepare to leave with leftovers and a full heart. 🥡🥢”

“Came across Golden Wok by pure accident. Just wanted some Chinese food and this was close by. The place was nice, calm and it was pretty empty for an evening. Staff was friendly and not hovering, which I liked. They let me enjoy my food and only checked in when I needed something. I ordered the Beef lo mein. And yeah, beef lo mein is one of those dishes that usually tastes the same everywhere. The beef has that familiar Chinese beef flavor that i'm used to, tender, juicy, a little smoky, and piping hot. No toughness, no weird chew. Seasoning was on point. Portions overall were solid. The only thing I always forget until I’m halfway through is there’s just not enough beef. I keep wishing for a few more pieces. Glad I found this place. It’s right on my way home, which is super convenient. I’ll definitely be back.”

“I hate to rate the food so low, but I have been going here since I was a kid. There was normally a higher level of quality. Recently the General Tso and now the orange chicken were beyond slimy which is horrible to even have in your mouth. It's very disgusting to say the least. Maybe a bad chef but I would never ever eat anything that has breading on the food. I do enjoy the BBQ Pork and Beef fried rice. The egg rolls aren't as good as they used to be, but these are good. While on FB I had found out these are new owners. Oh! Well, that makes a lot of sense because I know there was a difference in the food. Such as Beef Kow having less flavor and different vegetables in the dish. With that said, these people are nice and always happy to greet you. I love that. Nothing against their loving hearts, but some dishes aren't good at all. While others are awesome (beef fried rice). I may try other dishes, but I am not happy with the poor quality that I have received today and in the past. If your chicken or shrimp has this breading (picture), I would ask for something else. Sorry, but I can't recommend anyone to eat that.”

“Very good food. Some plates pricey. App says it's a buffet. But is no longer. Inside is very nice looking , hate a quite dinner.”

“I ordered some food for delivery because I didn’t feel like going to pick up lol. I ordered the kung pao chicken dinner (with chicken fried rice & an egg roll), pan-fried noodles, a side of white rice, & wonton soup. I thought the food was overall was pretty bland. Plenty of food leftover. I felt extremely bloated afterward though & it kinda messed with my stomach for several hours afterward. The guy who delivered my food was nice though.”
“Ordered some takeout for my birthday! I got the beef and broccoli, egg rolls, the lo mein with pork noodles with thick noodles mixed in, and rice! The food was very good! Great portion sizes for the pricing, everything was cooked to perfection and it was steaming hot! Can’t wait to order from here again! I strongly recommend this restaurant! Thanks again!”
“Always a pleasure eating in or taking to go, great attitude, nice people.”
