I love Wok to Walk! You can choose the base, the meat or veggies and sauce. I prefer the egg noodles rather than rice ones as there are so many other stuff that you can barely taste the rice noodles. Other than that, its super delicious and I always have it because I know I won’t regret it. Nom nom!

It’s pretty cheap, I’ll give you that. But I guess the quality would have to match the price. The noodles are exTREMELY greasy. I felt like I was just eating grease for the majority of my meal and wasn’t really able to taste the actual dish. I wouldn’t really go again because of the terrible feeling I had in my stomach afterwards

Nice idea and very quick service however I couldn’t help but feel slightly disappointed with what I received. I went for the vegetable box with chicken and while the veggies were definitely there, the chicken was sadly lacking. For flavour and convenience I can’t really fault it however it failed to satisfy my hunger which is the most important thing to me

A super fun Noodle Rice bar right in the centre of SOHO, Opposite the Prowler shop and at the end of Old Compton Street, The place is tiny but its a quick place to get something to eat which includes yummy noodles or rice then you decide what meat or what toppings you want, its so fresh that they cook it right in front of you and served in a couple of minutes the boxes they come in look small but you get loads, perfect before or after you’ve had a few beers around SOHO, Prices are ok at a start of around £3 but can add up to around £8 so not cheap but ideal. The place is always packed with punters, love the place!

These guys are great. A go-to place where you can pop in, order what ingredients you like, and have a hot box a couple minutes later. Inexpensive, tasty, and quick.

This place was okay. Not worth going out of your way. Super casual and small so if you’re In a group and want to hang out and catch up this is not really the place. Good is served in a to-go box. It can get pricey if you add a lot of ingredients.

Après un seul repas, je suis devenue une fan inconditionnelle du Wok to Walk, alliant un prix attractif pour Londres, la possibilité de prendre à emporter ou sur place et des produits top et bons. Pour moi qui adore pouvoir choisir là c’était Noël, le choix de la sauce, la viande, les accompagnements, de toppings, etc: un vrai délice!

Friday night, 2am, you want gluten free food in soho(at least I did.), go to Wok To Walk and you are not going to leave disappointed! Super fast, super cheap, super mix’n’match selection, freshly made in front of you and I remember at that time of the day — or night — I found it super tasty too! Plus — who wouldn’t love eating from those paper boxes.

Moving our office to Soho has proven an adventure in finding good value places for lunch; especially the sort you can take back to your desk quickly! Enter Wok to Walk, recommended by a colleague more familiar with the area. The idea is great. You pick a noodle or rice type for a base of £3.59, add as many ingredients(which vary in cost of course) as you like, then top it off with a sauce of your choosing. Basically, build your own noodle box! As with most of these places, the quality of ingredients vary, but my multiple trips have allowed me to work out what I like. The pork has been chewy a couple of times, and the mushrooms never seem cooked properly; and this lets Wok to Walk down a little. But on the other hand I’ve found the chicken to be delicious every time, and the pepper mix is a good addition. Of course, the more you add the more you pay — I tend to keep it to two additional ingredients. My favourite sauce is the Bangkok(curry coconut) with the Shanghai a close second. Pro tip: top your noodles off with a spoonful of the chilli relish before you leave for a delicious kick! The fact I keep returning and continue to enjoy my meal, feeling both stuffed and satisfied, puts this place well above its competitors in the area. Recommended.

Very tasty! Wok to walk is little takeaway, which I tried at my lunch break It was quickly made and hot. I really liked the variety… You can choose between different types of noodles and rice, vegetables, meat and sauces. You get a big pot, freshly made… and you won’t be hungry after this meal anymore And all this you can get for under 6 Pounds. I think that is really good. So 4 stars… It was really tasty, not the best food I’ve ever had, but well done for a take away. Enjoy ;)

LOVELOVELOVE this place! Delicious food, good service, and just enough seating that you can probably nab a seat if you don’t want to walk with your wok.

Delicious! I first ate at this chair while out very late in Madrid and was very impressed with the fresh ingredients. Flash forward two years to a late night on the town in London and what do I came across = Wok to Walk. I remember my tasty stir fried noodles for two years past and decide time to repeat. I was not disappointed. Yummy. Duck, hot sauce, mushrooms = a great late night meal in my hotel room.

At first I was a bit sceptical about going in, didn’t look much from the outside and truthfully these places always seem a bit bland or just not right. I’m glad I went in, the service was quick and the food excellent. Not an incredibly wide selection of food but still good enough to revive memories of your gap year to SE Asia, at least mine anyway. I ordered the pork with noodle and the spicy sauce and they gave me a box full of delicious food. It was exactly what I wanted and will be back.

Honestly at the risk of sounding totally pretentious I wouldn’t give this place a second glance if I walked by. There’s absolutely nothing special about it. It looks like one of the many, many oriental hole-in-the wall take away places in Soho. But thank god, I was with a friend who promised me that there was more to this place than meets the eye. The formula is simple– 1. Pick your base– choose from a selection of rice and noodles.(I got the egg noodles). 2. Pick your sauce(I got the hot sauce, obviously). 3. Pick your meat(I got the chicken). And voila, a few minutes later your combination arrives in an oriental paper take away box. I was delighted with my meal! There was no magic recipe or secret ingredient here– it was straight up good food. It was quick, cheap and absolutely delicious! It wasn’t too healthy and it wasn’t too oily– it was actually just right. The place itself is minuscule, but there is a spot by the window, that if you are lucky enough to nab, is a great place to people watch. This place keeps it real in the oh-so-quirky Soho.

I love this chain. Consistent, fresh, cheap and quick. Very filing. In fact, one order is usually too much for one person, but if you do finish it, I won’t judge ;) Seating is limited though, so you might find yourself eating on your feet or getting it to go.

I love Wok to Walk! It’s a shame there is only one in London. I first discovered this amazing place in Amsterdam, where they have many shops all over the city. In London you can find it in Soho and it is quite small but still great! You choose from different rice or noodles(I always go for whole wheat noodles) then add your favourite ingredients(for me it is tofu and nuts) then you choose the sauce(peanut sauce) and they cook it directly in the wok while you watch them. It always tastes amazing and you get more than enough so you can even have it for lunch and dinner the same day! So cheap and so good! I absolutely am in love with this place!

Quick and convenient, yet delicious. Friendly staff. Inexpensive. Yes it was surrounded by restaurants that probably had great food, but they were crowded, I wanted to take it home, and there was no wait. I also got exactly what I wanted without any confusion or difficulty. Sometimes we just want to have a simple yet tasty meal. Food was hot, fresh, and just as I ordered. I edited this to 3 stars because the second time I went the chicken was a little dry. Still recommended.

LOVEITHERE! why is it that? 1. Chose your own ingredients and eat them out of a paper container! 2. Fast and not fancy. 3. Clean bathrooms downstairs. 4. Fun location and always reliable food. YAY! When are they opening a location in SF?

Wok to Walk is one of Julia D’s favourite London places. It is based in a small shop in Brewer Street and always seems to be busy no matter what time of day it is. As a sometime picky eater it is great to be able to choose the ingredients yourself, with rice/noodles followed by meat, vegetables and sauces. As someone who doesn’t like a crowded box of food the prices are always reasonable.

Love the idea — plain and simple: pick your noodles/rice(egg noodles, udon, jasmine, whole grain rice), then your choice of meat/vegetables(chicken, beef, pork, tofu, prawns, shiitake, baby corn…) plus a sauce(soy, sweet&sour, curry coconut, teriyaki, garlic…) and 2 minutes later it comes all together handy in a small to-go box. This walk-in store offers some seating but is clearly for the rushing-by passenger that strolls through the touristy Soho area between Piccadilly and Chinatown. So, why only 3 stars? Not because my egg noodles with prawns and hot sauce weren’t hot(in terms of spiciness), it’s more because of the value: for pricey £5.95 I’d expect not to wonder if I just became a fatty who’s always hungry or if the portion just was that small. However, if you’re checking out the table dance bar next door or the gay sex shop around the other corner and you’re craving for a quick noodle snack, stop by.

I’ve been thinking about how to write a review about Wok to Walk because there has been a sense of déjà vu tugging at my memory strings. Then, it came to me. Wok to Walk is a takeaway version of the old Mongolian Barbecue chain of restaurants. It’s based in a small shop unit on Brewer Street with the 2 cooking stations right by the window to create a buzz. You can’t really blame them for a bad combination as you decide on the ingredients and flavours yourself. You choose the base carbohydrate ingredient of noodles or rice, then add meat, tofu and vegetables before finishing with a sauce, which gives the flavour. You can see the chefs fry your magic combo in front of you on some high temperature woks. Fortunately, their ready-prepared sauces turn out better than some of the awful stuff I created at the aforementioned Mongolian BBQ restaurants! The food merits a 3.5 star but I’m feeling mean tonight and rounded down!
