Some things were very good and I didn't care for others Orange chicken and spring rolls were yummy Fried rice was good Did not care for so to. Soup as the wi tins were kinda doughy The fried wontons had a funny taste to the meat I didn't care for I would order again and know what to get or avoid next time read more

I must say the orange chicken was delicious. Restaurant was clean when I went to pick up and service was quick and pleasant. 4 stars for now until I try more. read more

This spot has pretty decent food. I ordered my usual favorite egg foo young with a couple of egg rolls and some fried chicken wings. The service was fair and the food was swiftly prepared. The only thing I didn't like about this spot which seems to be a trend at all chinese take out locations now is how selfish they were with the duck sauce. A hand full of soy sauce and only 3 duck sauces irritated me. I went to go into this spot to take my food out but I was swarmed by a bunch of homeless guys asking me for money so I chose the delivery option instead. Also, their delivery bags are awesome read more

Also screammed and yelled. She said I was no good. I was clam and very patient and nice asking over and over can I have my food. Finally, after 10 mins... they give me my.. awful.... read more

My family and I decided to try a new Chinese Restaurant and after last nights experience at Amazing Wok we would never come back. My son and I ordered General Tso chicken and didn't even finish our order. The chicken was hard and tasted awful. Our stomach started hurting a few hours later. We did not sleep much last night we were up all night sick. I do not recommend. read more

After going to many failing Chinese food restaurants in the area, I finally found some good grub! Epic sesame chicken, wings in garlic sauce are superb and the pork fried rice, absolutely amazing! So much diced pork, onions and bean sprouts! I will be returning once a week, for sure! read more

Looks like dirty five but the good is really good. . Best dumplings I have ever had .

For those of us from down state that are used to more well rounded and robust flavors in Chinese food this is the best place in the Albany area. Person I spoke with on the phone was very friendly, delivery came slightly early, and every dish I had was perfect. Steamed pork dumpling filling was awesome, best dumping sauce I've tried up here, best wonton soup BY FAR, and above average chicken lo mein. Sad to have found them after so long of living here but they'll be my go to from now on. read more

Moving from Jamaica, Queens to Albany was SO hard, because I could not for the life of me find any good Chinese food places here. I tried place after place and I FINALLY found Amazing Wok. Their chicken wings are juicy but fried hard like they do downstate. Good pork fried rice. Amazing pork dumplings, I have to get them every time. Their fried baby shrimp is really good. General tso's shrimp and chicken are also wonderful. Their brown sauce that comes with their chicken and broccoli is thicker than I'm used to but it is still delicious. I also tried the bbq boneless ribs, you can't go wrong ordering those. This is the only place we go to for Chinese food. Every other place in Albany just makes me miss good Queens Chinese food. My partner and I have gotten food from Amazing wok almost every week for the past 6 months and we have have nothing bad to say about this place. Also: they've been taking Covid-19 very seriously! The precautions they take are very visible. You can't dine in, or even enter the store right now but no worries, the food is ready very fast and they sanitize well before and after every customer! As an immune compromised person I really appreciate how serious they are taking this virus read more

You will not be disappointed awesome food it's hard find good food but I am so glad I found Amazing Wok

Got delivery at Holiday Inn- menu was extensive! Food came HOT and within the time they stated! Highly recommend! Portions are enuf to share! read more

My favorite local Chinese restaurant closed so I thought I would give this other local one a chance. Never again. The food was basically tasteless and actually overcooked. I order shrimp egg foo young and the egg pancake was overcooked and the shrimp was chewy, typical of overcooking. The order was not place at a rush hour time so there was no excuse. It might have been a fluke but I wont be testing the water again. read more

This is really it!! if you know the taste of Real greezzzzy spoon chinese food this is it!! I ate at over 10 different restaurants none was able to achieve the most simplest order of them all 4 chicken wings and pork friend rice... There rice is the real pork fried rice . Not that shit these other people selling and the chicken is of quality....... You will not be upset. read more

I've been ordering take out once every 4 - 6 weeks since arriving to New York State a little over three years ago (if I order it at all). It's been way fewer than 6 weeks - I'd even say less than a month - and I've ordered from these guys 5 - 7 times. Honestly, I think there was one seven-day period in which I ordered twice. Seriously. I feel like Pookie from New Jack City with this stuff. I'm staying in this weekend to try out some recipes. If I can't get it right, I don't know what i'm gonna do. That's why I'm writing this. I need to make it public that the flavors are so "there" that you might lose control*. #MindBlown *I had "will lose control". But I don't want to scare you. Try it. Just once, just a little. read more

Amazing Wok is the kind of Chinese food that you get when your craving for General Tso's chicken is matched only by your laziness and you no longer care that you may be seriously ill later or that every other piece of chicken might have a consistency entirely inconsistent with chicken. It is thoroughly mediocre, but tasty, so if you don't have the energy to go to a sit down restaurant somewhere, you live near Lark, and you need some Chinese food, this is your place. It has never been disgusting, but it has often been... meh. But isn't that exactly what you want in Chinese take-out? read more

I've been all over the capital district and this is by far and away the best General Tso's chicken Ive ever had. read more

Amazing Wok Chinese Restaurant - General Tso's - Chinese Near Me - Albany, New York

You know, some days, you really just need some greasy spoon Chinese. The American Chinese kind. I haven't ventured to one of these places in a long time, but given that I've been away from the city (that is, The City, as in NYC) for a while from its myriad food options, I needed something Asian (even faux-Asian) at 8:30 in the evening. So, naturally, I opted for some quick and easy Amazing Wok just up the street. As someone else said, it really isn't all that bad for Albany. I at least wouldn't expect much better. It's certainly cleaner than some of the other greasy Chinese places I've seen (and haven't eaten at) in Brooklyn. I had the pork fried rice, and while it was skimpy on the pork, it tasted pretty good. It's just another alternative to a slice of pizza anyway, is all. Plus the guy who manages the counter is just so nice. I'm sure I'll be tempted to come back in another month or so. read more

As cheap Chinese takeout places go, this is THE place. If you're looking for real Chinese food, check across the street; if you're looking for looking for Chinese to pick up at 11pm on your way home, this is it. I have to commend this place for making every meal fresh to order. The sesame chicken and crab rangoon are always crispy. Don't let other Chinese places confuse you; this is the place to order Chinese from in Albany. Always fresh, always cheap, and will always let you place an order 10 minutes before they close. read more

I have ordered from here for more than a year and feel that I have a pretty good handle on their cuisine. They are like most other quick dining Chinese takeout; fast, efficient, and beholden to a wide array of culinary fare. How long for pickup? 10 minutes. On a Friday night at dinner rush. Their prices are reasonable and in line with most other takeout Chinese cuisine with exception of some of the more "upscale" Chinese restaurants like Shining Rainbow. Sometimes though, ordering from them can be a gamble, at least in terms of consistency in food quality. My roommate and I used to order mostly the same thing; General Tso Chicken, vegetable lo mein, and another dish to split. The lo mein was always consistent which was nice, the General Tso not so much. Sometimes it was a delight to bite into the crispy, saucy outer layer that mingled with the tender chicken inside. Other times, the outer layer was over-cooked with a tough chicken center. Their dumplings are pretty standard as is their appetizers in general. One point I really like about them is they are not afraid to be heavy handed with vegetables. Overall, a decent place to get your Chinese takeout fix. read more

I just went through about 7 minutes of placing an order for $42 worth of delivery to have the girl tell me we are switching to cash only!! But if I had been a previous customer they might take my credit card!! Are you serious?!?! I'm a first time customer and you just lost my business for good!! read more

This place is the epitome of "a dive," but it lives up to the name. Great food, wide selection and never disappoints. Very well set up for take-out in these times. read more

Best dumplings in town. Hands down. You can actually taste the ginger and garlic and pork it's delicious. Noodles and rice is like any other Chinese place I'd say. But this is my go to restaurant downtown because the dumplings are phenomenal. read more

Awesome "greasy spoon" Chinese food!!! I moved to the Lark Street area 10 months ago and often hit up Amazing Wok. It is consistently tasty, hot, fresh and speedy; everything you can want in a local Chinese spot. My favorite dishes are the fried chicken wings, homestyle bean curd, hot and sour soup and mushroom egg foo young. Give them a try if you're in you're in the mood for some tasty Chinese food!! read more

Definitely my favorite Chinese take out in the area. Always super quick, good prices, consistently delicious. Amazing shrimp dumplings!

Prices were ok. Food wasn't ready that great I am trying to review and girlfriend is shouting give it a negative nine on a scale of one to five. I am not as critical, but this was far from the best Chinese food ever. .our crab Rangoon was chewy not crisp. It was overly pineapple sweet and appeared to be made imitation crab meat. The fried rice was bland and tasted like rice-o-Roni. It had s "f'ing neon yellow" color. Yes she is still interjecting We are from out of town and hope we caught them on an off day. Honestly, doubt it. read more

Literally the best Chinese takeout around! Haven't once been disappointed with my order they are very kind and my order always comes within a good time frame! Also the food is always hot when it gets to my house and that's A+ for me read more

I live so close to this place that I wanted it to be good. Unfortunately, it really isn't at all. The hot & sour soup is spicy, but doesn't have any substance or flavor, the egg rolls tasted like frying oil gone bad and the sushi was a disaster. Pass. read more

Seriously some of the best Chinese food I've had ever. The fried rice is amazing and has bean sprouts and everything. Seriously I wish they would deliver to my office! read more

Classic Chinese take out. Food is good, not great and more importantly it's not bad. This is my go to place when I don't feel like cooking or spending money. read more

This place was ok. The delivery was fast; we got our food only about 20 mins. after we called in our order. The chicken chow mein w/ crunchy noodles was pretty good, and the vegetables they used tasted fresh and the chicken was tender and good quality. Fried rice was not particularly note worthy, but still tasty. Stay away, however, from the won ton soup!!! I think they make their won ton filling w/ very low quality pork scraps, as they were very fatty and had bone shards!! :P Gross. I would order the chicken chow mein again but that's it. Their steamed rice was good but that's a pretty hard one to mess up. read more

I love their food. Always fresh and hot. I like to order online and pick it up. Reasonably priced and decent portions. I just wish they had fried crab sticks. :-) read more

Don't bother ordering! Placed an order online using beyond menu to be delivered to Albany Medical Center where I was spending the night with a sick family member. Received a phone call 35 minutes after placing my order that my order was going to take the standard 45 minutes. Sure, no problem, 10 more minutes, nope 45 minutes from the phone call. I politely said mam, I placed my order over 30 minutes ago, just cancel it then. She had the audacity to check if they started making my order, as if she wasn't going to let me cancel if they started, well they never started with my order, so she canceled it. It would have been nice if I got a sorry for the inconvenience, we'll take x amount off your order or not charge you for an item. read more

Not bad for Albany Chinese, but that isn't saying much. As I used to live down the street, I picked up from Amazing Wok a lot. The food was always freshly prepared and hit the spot, but was clearly Americanized cheap Chinese food. Since there are good Japanese places around (including next door), I never dared try the sushi. read more

This place is nice as I say.... Not too good but better than others what I've tasted.... Price is pretty decent. But I have a tough time ordering food online these guys don't understand that's easily..... read more

My favorite Chinese restaurant! I love the food and the staff is very friendly and service is prompt. The prices are fair and this place is in a great location. read more

Not bad for Chinese at Albany. Had the general tso and it was definitely enough for two. Not a great sit down place but your run of the mill Chinese when you haven't had Asian food in awhile. read more

Ordered S19 with tofu instead of shrimp but they left out the onion green pepper and steamed broccoli and closed refusing to answer the phone after 10:30. I am vegan and they took advantage. I payed $13.95 for tofu with pepper on it, 1/3 of the meal. They will screw you mercilessly. Don't buy from them. They say, screw nutrition, screw accurate advertising, and screw you, if you're vegan and we're closing. Screw your compassion. We won't answer after having screwed you, royally, No matter what you paid us. read more

Food is always great when we order from Amazing Wok. The fact that we order and get delivery and the food is always hot and the delivery is quick we continue to order from here. We love it. read more
