“ Very delicious! Panda hut on 83rd and Cicero closed down so we have been looking for something new. My Dad and I went for the first time tonight and we had a great dinner. The waitress was very nice, food was hot and delicious. We will definitely be going back ”

“ I've been to my share of Chinese places and China Wok is some of the best tasting Chinese take out in the area. The portions are huge, prices are cheap and they're deals are a steal. It's hard to find my favorite dish, Chow Fun, but they offer a great chow fun. Yummy Cantonese style noodle dishes. They also have Ham Fried Rice, which is execllent. Egg Foo Young is huge and you get two in a salty brown sauce. Any meat dish is loaded, never skimp out. Fast service, nice people. The only thing I personally didn't care for was their sweet and sour sauce, but isn't a deal breaker. ”

“ Real good quality of food. Friendly service. Restaurant is mostly carry out. Real old pizza parlor never been really updated. Used to be Enzos pizza. Dear lady forgot our egg rolls. We forgive her. ”
“ I really like this Chinese restaurant. They are nice, they have fantastic prices(I get the lunch combo with a drink for 6), and what is ever cooler is at many Chinese places like this, you have to take your order to go, here you can eat inside as they do have like 5 or 6 dining tables. I have gotten the orange chicken and general tso's chicken. Both very good along with fantastic egg rolls and good fried rice. They also give a good amount of food. I am able to eat it all, but full by the end on the meal. ”

“ My family ordered take out tonight and this was absolutely amazing food. We ordered beef and Broccoli, rangoons, and sesame chicken. This was by far the BEST BEEF & BROCCOLI I've ever had. ”
