China Wok
I used to love this place, but admittedly had not been here for 8-10 years. Tonight we ordered $60 of carryout for 2 people. We threw all of it out after a few bites. Main courses were Szechuan chicken in garlic sauce and Hunan Chicken. On the menu both were shown as spicy. Neither one was spicy.But that’s not the worst part. Actually they were flavorless. I was quite in a mood for Chinese tonight, and talked my wife into going along with it, but without a doubt, both of these dishes, disappointed hugely. I also ordered the barbecue ribs. I’ve cooked a lot of pork and I know when I’m being served leftovers. These ribs had the taste of refrigerator age upon them, despite the attempt to cover up with a lot of sauce. They were dry as they possibly could be, evidence they had been reheated a few times. I ordered one of my favorites of all time: shrimp toast. It was soggy and soaked in grease. Now I’m going to admit to you that I like the flavor of the oil that the toast is deep fried in. But this was ridiculous, each piece of shrimp toast was soggy, undercooked, and not anything resembling the crispness that is so delicious with shrimp toast. This was a hard review to write, being that it is a place. I enjoyed so much in the past. I’ve had many good dinners here with good friends, and additionally, there was a server here for a long time who was a joy to have wait on you. She knew you the instant you walked in the door, and she commented Openly and without hesitation about how much you needed to eat, what portions were correct for you, and what you would like or enjoy. She also offered items from the kitchen that somehow needed to be consumed by someone, and she thought you would just be the perfect person to help the kitchen out by taking advantage of something that had misfired. I miss that place. I hope it comes back to that level. It’s going to take me a while to recover from the experience I had today. One additional thing: the delivery was perfect and very timeful. I enjoyed meeting the driver and his young assistant, and they lingered on the porch for a while as we conversed about the gorgeous evening we had.
We love their food. I've been going here since we moved in the area. Always a great experience.
