King Wok 59

literally the BEST Chinese food I have ever had! I had the orange chicken and it was fresh and juicy and full of flavor… had actual orange zest ! Highly recommend

Good local fast food restaurant. Decent service and food. Ac is never on so it’s not a good place to get out of the heat. Overall pretty good!

This isn’t a review, I’m just trying to make customers aware of the delivery charge king wok adds to each delivery order. On the front of King Wok’s menu it states there is a $ 2.00 delivery charge added to your total if you choose delivery. What the menu doesn’t say is that the $ 2.00 delivery charge goes to king wok, not the drivers. It seems a lot of people think the delivery charge is the drivers tip and if you assume the tip is added the driver will receive nothing to help pay for their gas… I’m just here as a friendly reminder that the tip is NOT included in your final total. Hopefully this helps with the confusion

One star is being generous, this place deserves half a star. I will never order from this place ever again. I live in the same city as this restaurant (West Chicago) it took 2 hours for our order to be delivered.
After waiting an hour and a half, I called the restaurant to ask about the status of our order and person that answered the phone told me she would call delivery driver and call us back. Well…25 minutes still no call back, so we called again and the same person answered the phone and told us to call her back in half an hour, but, then later states that foods on its way. I tell her that if we don’t receive food in the next 10 minutes that I would prefer to cancel my order, lady responds by saying that’s okay no problem and hangs up on me.
Bad customer service and food honestly was mediocre at best. I would not recommend this place to anyone.

This place is good when your craving Chinese food and you want to eat something to eat ASAP. The takeout is quick and if you order there you only wait about 10 minutes at the most. The crab Rangoon is delicious and so is the sesame chicken. The reason they only get three stars is because the food doesn’t stay hot very long. This place can make small changes to their menu. They only have two sizes for the rice, only large and small; it would be nice if they had a medium size. The small does not have enough rice but the large is way too much rice especially if your only ordering for yourself. I kind of wish they had sweet and spicy sauce, which would taste great on chicken.

Pre-​cursor: If you are looking for great FRIED RICE, King Wok is NOT the place to go — plain and simple. Drive the extra few miles to YE’S in Carol Stream on the corner of County Farm Rd and Army Trail Rd (strip mall by Dunkin’ Donuts). Day and night’s difference in quality and taste.
— Sweet and sour chicken = pretty good.
— Fried Rice = NOT GOOD. Based on the quality and taste, it is barely different than the frozen «Tai Pei» brand in your local Jewel or Wal-​Mart freezer section.
Ordered shrimp fried rice. The rice itself was barely browned and had almost no flavor, tasted like cardboard. There were also — literally — about 8 pieces of cold white shrimp mixed in. Most of the rice consisted of vegetables. Small peas, small carrots, and raw onions almost the size of quarters. Now, I have nothing against onions in certain food items, but these type of onions in fried rice just seemed way out of place. The box was LOADED with them. I stood over my sink and picked them out with a fork and ate what I could of the rice. It was almost as if King Wok’s version of fried rice was «Let’s brown the rice slightly, throw in as many vegetables as we can, and then throw in a few shrimp.»
(I suppose you could ask for «no onions» or «no whatever», but I didn’t think to do that, as I didn’t know ahead of time what would be in the fried rice).
I try to be fair with all of my reviews, but I would never get fried rice from this place again. Ye’s does it correctly. Ye’s loads the box with shrimp (literally 75 of them for a large box), browns and flavors the rice correctly, puts in a bit of scrambled eggs, bean sprouts, small green chives, etc. NO ONIONS. No carrots. No peas. (aka no «filler material»). Large raw onion pieces do not belong in fried rice unless somebody asks for them specifically.
I obviously cannot account for everything on their menu here, but I would not buy food here again.
Again, if anybody is looking for great Chinese food or especially has a craving for some GREAT Fried Rice — TRY YE’S. I can’t say King Wok is terrible, but I reckon many of the 5-​star reviews below which state «this place is hands down the best Chinese place in the Western Suburbs» obviously haven’t tried other Chinese take-​out places…

Never again! I ordered vegetable chow mein that was all onion, had no noodles, and two broccoli florets. I love onions, but give me some vegetables! The white rice I ordered tasted 7 days old. My partner ordered sweet and sour chicken– it was soggy and didn’t have any peppers with it. Very disappointing experience, won’t be returning.

So Good! House Special Mi Fun is the best. Service is good and the food and prices are very good. Overall great family business.

good food, always perfect. eat here at least 4 times a month if not more.

Meh.
BBQ pork is ok, but do NOT order the fried shrimp… It’s Mrs. Pauls or Gordons.
In a pinch we’ll get delivery from here, but everything tastes the same pretty much.

a small nice Chinese kitchen with a small seating area. i had the orange flavored chicken and it was very good. Much better than panda express and is good to support a small family business. Plenty of parking in its strip mall location.

Yummmm… love this place. There’s nothing bland about this food. Try the chicken and broccoli, teriyaki chicken and crab rangoons. I worked in W Chicago for a while, but still go there for my Chinese food fixes. The woman who runs the place is absolute sweetheart too.

Been coming here since it opened and always been very happy with it. Food is the best takeout Chinese that I’ve been able to find in the Western suburbs. Prices are reasonable, and it’s always fairly quick. Staff is very friendly too.

Great Chinese food but nothing special
Fast delivery
Convenient location
Awesome staff, very friendly
Recommend for sure if in need of cheap Chinese that tastes great!

True Life: I’m Addicted To Chinese Food
…but seriously. This place is great! I recently placed a huge to-​go order here with my mom, aunt, and two sisters after an intense (exhausting) day of shopping. We got two kinds of fried rice (chicken and shrimp), general tso chicken, chicken lo mein, orange chicken, and sweet and sour chicken (why are we psychos for chicken?). All very good!
Our order was ready and 100% accurate when we picked it up, and they gave us several fortune cookies. Will return whenever I’m in the area!

Food is Ok, service is good, but would not be my first choice.

I loved king wok when I lived in west Chicago. The owner was great and she knew our order by heart when we called. She always used to ask my husband when we would be making her some babies to come eat her Chinese food. It always put a smile on my face.
I miss this place a lot since moving. It is definitely more of a take out place than dining in.

Good wonton soup, but everything else was just okay. They seemed unaccustomed to having someone dine in, so lack of service brought the experience from a 3 to a 2. Had to ask for plates, and food was brought to our table in an unexpected order, with no regard for appetizers vs. main dishes. Obviously, take-​out is what they do.

Let me start off by saying that my fervor for Chinese food could be summed up as «disgusting and borderline obsessive», so naturally I felt the need to review King Wok. I love this place! I always choose their orange chicken special which comes with rice and an eggroll (you can choose a can of pop [or a cup of soup if you’re dining in] instead). Daily lunch specials are delicious and very inexpensive considering how much food you get. Their styrofoam containers have been stapled shut on occasion due to the fact that they pack it to the brim with yumminess which is perfectly acceptable for a glutton like myself… I may come back to expand my review even further but I’m actually heading out to place an order at King’s right now. I can’t wait.
Note: This place is pretty cozy and only has 4 tables. It seems comfortable enough for a quick lunch but not a place you’d want to hang out at for a couple of hours. I tend to take my food to go.
