Manchu Wok

I love the food and always eat here whenever I get the chance. I recommend this place.

Meh, what do you expect? If you are looking for «authentic» remember that it’s a Chinese «fast food» franchise in a mall food court. It’s quick, food is hot, and portions are fairly generous but bland. Ask for chili paste and soy sauce to make the meal more palatable.

Its got to be the worst Chinese in the region. And I know that its in a mall. I went there with expectations that it would be roughly McDonalds food court quality. McDonalds doesn’t rip off customers and tastes good.
Lets start off with ordering. I was behind one person with another behind me. The first guy got his meal, as expected. The lady behind me then walked up to the counter, spoke some Chinese, and was promptly served, because hey, who has time to wait in lines, clearly not her. I saw that they had pricing by number of options. I assumed that by ordering 1 food item, I would pay the 1 item price of $ 5 somethign. Nope, it cost $ 10.10 for a bunch of orange chicken that made me long for Airport panda express, some fried rice and a soda. What a fucking rip off.
Staff wasn’t rude but they weren’t friendly. Food was bad even for extremely low expectations. Who ever manages this place… just quit, because you’re clearly abysmal at your job. What a joke of a place, I don’t think I’ve ever hated a fast food experience as much as this one.

I have had lunch here twice. The first time the food was horrible. Today I decided to give them another try. Today, it was good. So for now we will go with a three. We’ll see how things go next time.

one star removed for the guy who tries to scam me of 1.59 when i order an orange chicke combo that includes a drink.
he did this to me twice on two different days and then pretends he did not realize. this overcharging needs to be reported and stopped as it happened to me twice by the same guy
one star is because the food is eatable.
be warned to cehck what you order and if it includes a drink or not.
to be fair the lady working there is ok, but the new guy should not assume we are fools

The meat quality was good here which is more than I can say for some other Chinese restaurants around Arlington. However, the spicy chicken had no spice which was a disappointment and the chicken and vegetables was also bland. I tried my husband’s general tso’s chicken which was ok. it’s good for a quick meal.

It’s good for what it is: a quick and mediocre lunch at a mediocre food court at a mediocre mall

this food blows. Don’t do it. It’s fast food chinese — that alone should tell you not to eat this crap.

The food is alright for Chinese fast food though the beef broccoli was very salty. I came here around lunchtime and there was no line, which should have been a red flag to me. The McDonald’s next door was getting a lot more action than this joint.
