Wok Inn

I was looking for some quick pick-up food and thought I'd try this place as it's right beside where I was returning a rental car. I ordered a couple of veggie spring rolls and the Shrimp with Veg and Almond. Both were great! Big chunks of fresh, never frozen veggies in a tasty broth.

On Saturday April 6, 2019, about 7pm, I drove into the Dunlop Village Plaza (304 Dunlop St.) looking for a little snack. The pizza place there didn't have slices available, so I looked at the next building and saw the Wok Inn. And walked in.The decor greeting you as you enter appears somewhere between San Francisco back-alley noodle-shop and early-1950's soup kitchen. Very plain, in need of paint and a freshening up, some chipped paint on the framing and walls, and a chalkboard menu that I've not seen the likes of in decades! Things seemed relatively clean, and the kitchen sounded busy, though I couldn't see much through the window into that area.I ordered the Chicken-Fried Rice and two egg rolls, knowing that would get me through at least two meals and maybe a breakfast snack tomorrow.The gentleman who took my order was quick, moderately attentive (though his cellphone appeared to be holding at least half his interest while I was ordering), and got the details down right. He went back to the kitchen and they prepped the order in surprisingly quick time; I don't think I'd waited more than 4 or 5 minutes, during which time I could hear several members of the family working there engaged in some sort of family discussion through the open serving window. They were arguing about something, not vociferously, but firmly, and the details were lost to me as I don't comprehend Chinese. Still... a moment's entertainment is a moment's entertainment.The gentleman emerged from the back with a brown paper bag containing my order, and radiating the heat of freshly-cooked food.I went out to my car, and the food smelled so good I eased my seat back, set out the dish and egg rolls, and sampled a bit before driving home.Pleasant surprise! The still-hot, yet crispy-edged egg roll tasted, for a few moments on my first bite into it, like the crispy-enticing sweetness of a freshly cooked butter tart, and then continued melding back into what a delicious egg roll should taste like. THAT was a happy experience.The chicken fried rice also had that great scent of freshly prepared Chinese food; the chicken was neither over- nor under-cooked, and the accent of spice and onions was perfectly balanced.Overall, decor and presentation aside, the food is what we go for in situations like these, and the overall tastiness of their fare will have me ordering again in the near future!(Post-script: If you're using Google maps, the location they show for this place within the plaza is WAY off, wrong part of the building. They're at the west end, not the middle.)

I was looking for some quick pick-up food and thought I'd try this place as it's right beside where I was returning a rental car. I ordered a couple of veggie spring rolls and the Shrimp with Veg and Almond. Both were great! Big chunks of fresh, never frozen veggies in a tasty broth. The veggie rolls looked like they were made from scratch in house. My food was ready on time and service was friendly. I'd definitely order from here again.

Tonight was our first time ordering from this restaurant. We ordered diner for pick up and was told it would be ready in 20 minutes. Perfect. My husband paid and took the order handed to him and cam home. Before he even arrived the Wok In called us and told me they gave my husband the wrong order and to tell him he has to drive it all the way back to the restaurant. Turns out the lady behind him at the restaurant was the owner of the meal they gave my husband.Instead of calling and saying Sorry we gave you the wrong order, We will come and deliver the right order to you, and make a fresh order for the customer still at the store, they demanded we return the meal and then handed it to the customer still at the restaurant.They never even offered us a cent off the price for being forced to drive their twice.The other customer was demanding new food because it had left the store, with us. I would have too, but they refused.Now we are eating cold food on my daughters birthday.This is the worst customer service ever. I wouldn't eat at a place that would serve you food that left their custody. What else would they let slide.BUYER BEWARE

My Wife is picky and she loves it - I wish it was more authentic and had a greater selection of spicy Szechuan dishes.Great service, good value and some great items on the menu. Chicken Balls, Wonton Soup, Curry Noodles are winners

Over priced,over greasy, and under seasoned!!!Was staying in town on a trip and saw it on the way to the hotel. Figured to give it a go. This food was drenched in grease and was VERY expensive. The food was ok flavor wise but was pooling with grease. The chicken fried rice to its credit had tonnes of chicken chunks in it, but you could tell the rice had been made a long time ago.The entire meal had no real flavor other than grease.

I have been getting food from this place for about 10 years now and still order from here at least once a month and am always impressed how fresh and well prepared the food is. They are usually faster than the 45 minutes they say on the phone.

Great customer service, ordered and received food within 20 minutes for a pretty big order. Food quality was really good. Would recommend and visit again!

Disgusted with your service. We have been ordering from here for over 6 years.Today we were delivered raw chicken balls. When we took the chicken back to the wok inn we were told the raw pink chicken was not raw data all.. only a different kind of chicken. How does that make any sense. No chicken should be pink! Sure they made us a new batch. But who would have an appitite after eating a raw chicken ball. Will never order from here again.

Been buying their take-out for years.. tonight was a very bad experience - phone call to place order was answered from noisy kitchen.Told 20 minutes, ready in 35. No condiments - soy sauce and plum sauce not found. No fortune cookies either. Probably think twice before going back.
