Cook On Wok

The crab ragoon, the egg rolls and the generals chicken were certainly not the best I’ve ever had. There was little too no sauce on the general chicken so was dry especially when I added the rice.

Ordered from here quite a few times and always forget to write review. I’ve not been dissatisfied with the service or food from here. Ordered the General chicken, Pepper Steak, rice, hot/​sour soup. Really easy ordering options online or call in. I’ve dined in and the old school vibe was definitely throw back 80’s lol! White meat on the chicken and it can be spiced up to your liking. The pepper steak tasted fresh and vegetables combined produced a great flavorful combination. I will venture into the seafood menu next time ordering. Very helpful and friendly when ordering, great customer service always helps!

This place has changed since I visited a few times over a year ago. It is under new management according to the menu at the front desk. The white rice did not taste freshly steamed, it was dry, and had an odd after taste. The sesame chicken had a sweet dry coating like sweet & sour chicken but with the addition of sesame seeds. And the other menu item I tried reminded me of kung pao chicken but with shrimp and beef added. The shrimp was deveined… The chicken texture was decent… The beef was soft and chewy. This meal was not tasty. I will not go here again. Restaurants that I use as a comparison are China wan wan and Chopstix.
Does anyone know of a superb Chinese-​food joint? I am losing hope with these trial and error attempts to find a quality, fresh, no msg, place with suitable meat texture!

This place is very, very good. Booth seating is plentiful and comfortable. The staff is very polite and attentive.
The Sesame Chicken was crunchy, not over fried, very flavorful and light. The Beef Pepper steak is very flavorful and plentiful. The Honey Walnut Shrimp is sooooo good you really should this dish.

Love the orange chicken and egg rolls! Also the service is always great! Oh and the crab Rangoon are amazing! Except I get it without crab so it’s like a cream cheese wonton and I love them.

It’s too bad. We’ve been loyal customers to this establishment for a long time. Henry has always been good to us and made sure the cooks prepared our food the way we requested. We decided to stop by today but we forgot that he wasn’t working, instead we had to deal with the nightmare that is May. She is just about one of the rudest people I’ve ever had to deal with, and when we had a flavorless dish come out of the kitchen and we complained about it, she said that’s the way we had to eat it and charged us for the dish anyway. She had no concern for the happiness of her customers or the capacity to be able to understand why we were dissatisfied. She straight up said she did not care if she lost out on a customer. You don’t say that to customers that order 50 – 80 dollar checks. She was so concerned about losing out on a dish that cost 10 that she didn’t realize she lost out on much more than that in the long run. We won’t be back.

I’ve been coming here on and off for years, and each time they remember me… Awesome feeling! The food is always fresh, hot and affordable. Only thing I wish was that there were vegetables in the fried rice. But everything else is good. Intimate atmosphere, great parking, and location. I would recommend to anyone in the area. Beef broccoli is my fave!

I’ve been coming here for quite some time and have loved it just as long. My fave is the dressing from the salad. The owner makes it himself from scratch. The Mongolian beef is one dish i get everytime as it’s always consistent. I highly recommend this restaurant!

I want my money back. This is probably the worst Chinese food I have ever had. I ordered the general gau’s chicken yesterday and it was not even edible. I ended up throwing it away after eating one piece. There’s almost no chicken and what was breaded was really saturated and soggy with the sauce. The rice was boring and kind of mushy. The eggroll looked and tasted store-​bought and it seemed cooked that way too. I really wish I could get my money back. I would definitely not recommend this place to anyone.

Food Poison that what I got when I went to eat here, Food was very poorly cook and taste was horrible.
The services that we received less than one star but the lower you allow to rate this people is one star.
This place should be close down and the county should inspect this kitchen very well, I never got food poison before and within 10 minutes of eating here I was rush to the hospital.
The food is well overpriced for the quality I got. The service was unfriendly.

Even though most of the reviews for this restaurant aren’t good, I decided to take a gamble and try it out anyways… And I’m very glad I did! It’s literally walking distance from my office which is also a plus. I ordered the Kung Pao Chicken Lunch Special for
$ 5.95. It came with hot and sour soup. For the price, it was a large portion. Most importantly, it was delicious! Nice service as well. I will definitely be coming back :)

I have gone to Cook On Wok in the past. Actually a long time ago and I believe it was good, but not this time. we had it delivered. It took a very long time, but my main complaint was the food. my husband got the pad Thai. he said it was the worst ever. the orange chicken was horrible too. the crab rangoos were smashed and not the best I’ve had. The only dish we got that was decent was the garlic chicken. I won’t be returning or ordering again from here.

A Fan of their SHRIMP CHOP SUEY
When it comes to Cook on Wok: s shrimp chop suey, my taste buds say, «Baby, your the greatest!» Well, maybe not the greatest. I am still trying Chinese restaurants throughout the Valley. Regardless, my taste buds elevate Cook on Wok’s shrimp chop suey to the 4 star Unilocalosphere.
I am a fan of the Chinese restaurant lunch special. In my opinion they are a better value than a fast food restaurant. The Cook on Wok lunch specials include an entrée (see my photo), crunchy noodles with duck sauce, white or fried rice, and soup of the day where an additional $ 2 upgrades to wonton soup. Their wonton soup is over and above the typical wonton soup that includes shrimps. On the other hand, I also enjoyed their hot and sour soup (included). The lunch special menu trails behind several Chinese restaurants in variety. After eating their SHRIMP chop suey, I am decided on ordering it when I done here. Although, the plate is not overflowing with food, it is flowing with the delicious ingredients of shrimp chop suey. Cook on Wok is generous with the number of shrimps. Every bite is delicious from the shrimp and vegetables down to the broth. With the lunch special I order a Coke that they serve in a generous size glass. Before the tip, the total adds up to approximately $ 12.
Twice in recent times, I have made the right turn from Warm Springs Road into the Circle K parking lot at the southeast corner of Stephanie Street and parked in the adjacent parking lot to dine in Cook on Wok. Upon walking inside, the friendly gentleman walks me to the table a few minutes before becoming my waiter. The atmosphere is one of a dine in Chinese Restaurant instead of a take-​out. It is a clean and relaxing environment.
I recommend Cook on Wok for their shrimp Chop suey lunch special. I support this recommendation with my signature of four stars.

Awesome! Great food, wonderful service and good prices. I will definitely return. Had low mein and fried rice with wonton soup. It was packed full of meat and the wonton soup was the best I have ever had.

I have to say that this was a great surprise! The food was outstanding, service excellent and very clean. We have found our new Chinese food eatery!

We ordered the sesame chicken & vegetable egg foo young; both were so delicious we ate every bite!

It’s more of a 2.5 star to me, here, but whatever. I tried this place several years ago and the food bored me too much to become a regular customer.
We finally gave it another go, because maybe things are different now, etc. Just like the first time, service was friendly, and I liked the restaurant’s ambiance and cleanliness. Price is nice for the lunch specials. But, just as before, we found the food boring and mediocre.
In the same way that the five star reviewers here can’t understand why us two and three star reviewers are disappointed by the food, I just can’t understand how anyone could call it yummy, great, or the BEST. It’s nowhere close to those things for me. Too bad.

Thought I would try something new, but I will stick to my restaurant.
They have great service — greet you at the door, and are attentive when placing your order. I ordered pad Thai, which maybe was not a good choice.
It was very bland. Very, very bland. So much so I had to throw it back in the fire, add some of my own stuff to add some flavor. Never had I done that before, but I guess there’s a first for everything. My mom enjoyed her food though. Maybe it was just my food, but that was my first time there, and not a great food experience. I’ll give it a shot one more time. Based upon some of the other reviews, the food is good, so I’m willing to try it again.

I don’t know what the bad reviews are all about. Yes, it was crappy before. Bad service and bad food. THAT was the first time I had it back in August 2011.
Management has changed since then, so did the food and service. I work next door so it’s a walking distance for me to get lunch. I don’t have a personal favorite but DO try any of their lunch special. Ranges from $ 6-​$ 7.50ish. There’s a $ 10 limit on cards but sometimes they may forgive you if you don’t have cash.
I’ve tried almost everything on their lunch menu. Well, I usually eat off of my co-​workers’ take out lunches. Busy days are Fridays and Mondays around lunch. Just FYI. But it’s a great place for a sit down restaurant for something quick and cheap.

I don’t get the awful reviews for this place, I think it’s okay. The service was TOP NOTCH and SUPER FRIENDLY, but we were one of only two tables that had customers in the whole place.
I was scared to try it after reading the Unilocal reviews but I was inticed by the restaurant’s giant red and white banner hanging outside that screams «Low Carb Chinese Food.» I think the only thing low carb about it is if you don’t eat the gargantuan pot of white rice that comes with your dinner, but the food was decent. The hot tea is really good and they would refill it (including a fresh tea bag) as much as you wanted.
The meat quality was particularly good, the chicken dishes use all white meat chicken breast. The atmosphere is like a Denny’s stuck in 1981, but that only adds to the «charm» of the mirrored walls and fake plants. I dig it!
