Asian Kitchen
10/10 experience, service, and food! The ambiance was casual and so comfortable for a date night. The food came out quickly and was delicious! We ordered the Beef Ramen, Fried Shrimp Ramen, and Spinach & Chicken Dumplings. They were all fresh & flavorful. The staff is also so friendly and helpful with explaining menu options. Highly recommend!
Actually i have been there many times. Food were more authentic when it opened from the very beginning. Now it is a little infusion. I understand. But still good enough. Ordered eggplant and fish. May go again. Nice service, ok atmosphere.
China Wok
Some awesome food! I got the general tso chicken and man, it was amazing. The broccoli and rice was perfect. The eggroll was awesome as well! I took a break from my jobsite to come eat and I am very glad I did. The only thing I could find wrong is the size of the plate. It was over filling. They need bigger plates. I will certainly be back if I’m working in the area.
Kung Pao chicken without cashews is a joke! Went here for a quick lunch because it seems to be the only acceptable (and fast) place to eat in Carrboro Plaza. NC people would know that there's always a Chinese fast food place like this close to a Food Lion, and this is one of the many, so my expectations were not big. I ordered the Combination meal with Kung Pao Chicken, pork fried rice, and egg roll. Also ordered a small hot & sour soup & a bottle of diet Coke. Young lady cashier was friendly and took order without issue. I usually order take out when it comes to Wok spots like this but decided to dine in. Order was served within 10 minutes - another employee brought my soup with the flour crackers that go with the soup. As you can see in the photo, the size of Kung Pao meal is fine for a $12+ meal. The mixture of vegetables (broccoli, carrots, snow peas, and green bell peppers) bury some of the chicken pieces underneath, giving me an impression that chicken meat was not enough. As I ate, I discovered that there's a fair amount of thin sliced chicken breasts. Most of the chicken pieces (maybe 5 or 6) were sliced thin but wide - I wanted to slice it to make it fit the spoon with the pork fried rice, which id finely cooked. Somewhat surprisingly, the chicken tasted tofu-like rather than what you'd expect from a well-cooked white meat chicken. I set the few snow peas aside - they don't go well with the entire meal. I realized something seems to be missing. Any Kung Pao chicken lover would know that the perfect Kung Pao chicken always have cashews (or roasted peanuts) but China Wok's version is missing this essential ingredient that gives that extra crunch to the meal. The space inside is about average compared to other Chinese Wok spots in NC. There's a good amount of parking space shared between various businesses there. There's a standard soda machine and sweet tea but got a Diet Coke bottle instead. The hot & sour soup is the same as what you'd expect from a typical Chinese restaurant. Amount is good for a small size. The eggroll is quite bland: Although there are bits of pork inside, the chewy, flavorless texture made me ask, "What in the world am I eating?" Also tried their General Tso in a previous visit, and the chicken meat quality was a bit better that the Kung Pap chicken but tasted like it was more flour than chicken. If you want fast and cheap Chinese food in Carrboro, China Wok is still a convenient option. Although there are a few other Chinese spots nearby (more towards the downtown area), it's still a blessing for a boring shopping center. But if you're looking for a decent Chinese restaurant that serves quality food, this is clearly not it.
