China Wok

when there are mostly orientalist Asians in your restaurant, you know it’s good food. The employees speak basic English and always confuse my orders, but that’s part of the fun… what will I get instead 😄 Doing this review makes me want to go get some grub for dinner.

The food here was really not that bad! The food that I was able to have was the egg drop soup and the orange chicken! The food that I was able to have here reminded me of those precious moments when I was able to have my grandfather and grandmother’s classic and wonderful egg drop soup and orange chicken back when I was in Singapore! The egg drop soup and the orange chicken allowed me to reminisce about those precious moments when I was able to break bread with my family in Singapore when we were at the hockey centers where my uncles and aunties were able to hook me up with that decadent delicious food Although this might not be the most pristine family looking area for the most part, however, the food is absolutely amazing. You’re not going in there for necessarily a service, but you’re definitely going in there for the food. For the prices that you are getting to pay at this location this is definitely a steal in somewhere where I will be back!

This New Year's we were treated poorly at China wok in Tysons, after I paid for my food I told the cashier that I was going to sit and eat some of my food before going he told me that I could not eat there unless I paid five extra dollars to sit at the restaurant. When I heard that I told him to reverse the sale I will take my money and go elsewhere. He refused to refund my money. He hesitantly said we can sit there and eat handing me my credit receipt. While me and my daughter sat waiting for a food we got the nastiest look from staff that came from the kitchen looking at us. We really didn't trust the food coming out of the kitchen but because they refuse to refund our money we sat there and tried some of the food. The food was disgusting. We ordered spicy fried beef with chicken lo mein and two sweet and sour soups all was absolutely 💯 disgusting. I think they purposely over fry the beef made it crunchy like crackers just to show us that we shouldn't have been there that particular day. An Asian couple came in for dinner shortly after we started eating and they were treated with welcoming arms. They were offered water and a plate of vegetables. I assume is the appetizer and we weren't. As we sat there and ate two employees came hovering us as we ate I assume to see how long it will take us to finish to get out of their establishment. I'm not sure if this is a form of prejudice us being black why we were treated like that but I will never go back to that restaurant again. Please be mindful of how this restaurant treat you if ever you go in the food sucks!!!

Some dishes were good. Kung pao chicken did not taste like what I know it should taste like, was expecting more spice and flavor. And one dish came out as not what we ordered, yet we were still fully charged for it. They just said it'll be good as leftovers. They were nice otherwise though.

No frills, mom and pop, authentic Chinese place with the best and most affordable Peking duck in NOVA. Been coming here since 2012 and the food, service, and atmosphere hasn’t changed. It’s a hole in the wall type place but if you looking for the authentic Chinese food (not Korean Chinese or American Chinese) this is the best spot! The workers have all been the same for years and they are all attentive. Pictured: whole Peking duck Salted Squid Seasonal veggies
