Eastern Wok

I have actually found a Chinese restaurant in this part of the city that I could make a return. The interior is nothing to look at. It’s a typical looking strip mall Chinese restaurant with big pictures on the wall. They have the standard Chinese fare. The best option is carryout. It can be sketchy in the neighborhood at times, so come earlier. The value is pretty good for the amount of food. There is a limited vegetarian menu. I ordered the homestyle bean curd. The sauce was a bit not as fresh tasting, and the tofu was soggier than the crispy I prefer, but still had pretty good flavor. I still recommend this place to Rice Bowl. Was not so great but I could try it again. It’s not often I’m around this part of Columbus, but when I am, I could give this place a try.

My go to place for chinese. Quaint family owned joint, always accurate, fresh, fast. During the weekdays I opt for the lunch special. Great shrimp eggrolls and crab rangoon.

This review is long so im putting my conclusion up here for those of you who don’t have time for that, lol. This place is a hidden gem that is worth visiting again and again. Flavor of everything including pork fried rice is really good. The shrimp egg roll has big chunks of shrimp in it. If you like spicy you need to order it that way. I will be ordering take out again soon mmmmmmm.
It was Sunday night and i was craving Chinese food. I didn’t realize there was a third option on this side of high street and the other 2 places don’t have the best reviews. Unilocal said they were closed, but we drove by and they were open so I think it’s important to note that for other first time customers.
We ordered take out and food was ready fast so we hurried home to put these guys to the test. Crab Rangoon was made in wonton style and i prefer the racket ball (have no idea what that style is called) I like the crispy edges. I liked the filling just not crispy so I wouldn’t order them again. We ordered the general tso combo plate for 7.50 and it was very good, but just like most places it wasnt spicy so you need to tell them you want spicy. I have to tell you i rarely am interested in the fried rice because it’s usually not that tasty. I have to say i would order the fried rice as a meal that is how good it was so if you haven’t tried it you should it had such a great flavor that i didn’t put soy sauce on it!!! The pork egg roll was very good, but the shrimp egg roll was even better with actual chunks of shrimp (not salad shrimp big chunks I tell you) the flavor was very good.

Excellent service and quality. Best place in the area and that includes any place in Grove City. Their portions are larger and prices are lower than other Chinese places and the pad Thai is truly the best I’ve had, even compared with Thai restaurants.

One of the best Chinese restaurant ever I have been going here for over 10 yrs and have always loved it my friends have took me to other places like this but nothing else is better

I just finished eating some great tasting Hot and Sour Soup and Vegetable Lo Mein. Yeah, I’m stuffed. The best thing about it was that it was just the leftovers from lunch so I got two big meals for my $ 8.70.
Eastern Wok is a hole in the wall, order at the counter, sit down and wait till they bring it out to you type of place. Now the restaurant is frankly a bit run down and has no ambiance at all. They serve their soup in plastic take away containers, use Styrofoam plates and their utensils are plastic. It’s no frills eating on the south end of town.
I know I just lost a few of you…
Oh, you’re still with me? Cool.
Let me finish with a rave about the Vegetable Lo Mein. It’s a generous portion of noodles, broccoli, snow peas, scallions and carrot strips. Hot off the wok, flavorful with a hint of ginger too. The Hot and Sour Soup was thick and hearty with plenty of the good stuff in it.
The employees here are also super nice too.
I wouldn’t hesitate to come back here again for a quick Chinese food fix.

Don’t know how this place gets such a high rating. The food was OK. My app of boneless spare ribs came out dry and hard, I could not eat them. Just an average Chinese restaurant.
