You know, I'm sitting here at midnight after watching The Crooked Man from the SyFy network…read more(enjoying these low-budget movies because actors put heart and soul into it whether good movie or not and because concepts are sometimes cool) and was thinking about Lotus. To Clarify, Lotus wasn't a character in the movie and was actually the name of the Chinese restaurant. And if there was a Lotus in the movie, I wouldn't be thinking about Lotus--unless he/she was unique and had an interesting viewpoint on life with good intentions but also loved to be bad and was sometimes misunderstood. For The Crooked Man, I gave it a 7.2 but that's on a scale for the SyFy channel--and I gave Lotus a 4.0--which would make it an eight on a 10-point scale. Therefore, the Chinese food was slightly better than the movie. 8.0 is greater than 7.2. For the Chinese food, I liked my son's meal better than my own, but both were good. I got the Scallion Chicken, which I have never had anywhere. The waiter was kind and attentive but he really wanted me to have the Scallion Chicken. I tried to move to General Tso's and explained it was my first time there and should probably go with something I know. He said, "Yes! Most people order Scallion Chicken." Alrighty then. Scallion Chicken it is! What I should have ordered was the Roast Pork Lo Mein, which was very good. But if I did that and we both had Roast Pork Lo Mein, we would only know about the Roast Pork Lo Mein and not about the Scallion Chicken, which could have been General Tso's. We both asked for no vegetables in the Fried Rice but he said it would cost extra because it was already made. So, we just stuck with whatever was in there--eggs and ... scallions. I also ordered Wonton Soup but I just realized that it never arrived, which is the biggest negative because I love Wonton Soup. If someone called me tomorrow and offered me a job to travel across the country rating Wonton Soup, I would take it. It would be a Vlog titled: Man With Spoon. Another odd thing was when they refill your water, they take your glass and come back with it. Scallion Chicken isn't too spicy but it's nice to have water. It's weird when they take it away. You're probably wondering how this was a 4. Good question. But the food was good, the service was friendly (counts the most for me), and the prices were fair. And it was a comfortable dining area. But most importantly, it was fun to have lunch with my son, and the miscommunications and interesting approaches to service felt adventurous to me. If someone were rude, that's a whole different thing, but everyone was friendly, so I'm good with it. I will also stop in one day for a Wonton Soup.

We ordered krab rangoon and chicken teriyaki sticks for appetizers which were both fantastic. Their krab rangoon had a LOT of cream cheese. Most places skimp out and you get mostly just fried wonton with no filling. The teriyaki chicken was crispy and juicy. For entrees we got shrimp mei fun which was good, but a bit salty. We got the crispy scallion chicken which was flavorful, crispy and saucy. We also had the crispy orange beef which I wish was a bit crispier and less saucy, I think too much sauce made it soggy, but had a nice orange flavor and wasn't super spicy. We also had the beef with ginger and oyster sauce which was also salty, but the beef was tender. Last but not least we had shrimp lo mein, which tasted like your standard lo mein. Nice amount of shrimp and even took home leftovers as it was a large portion. A few of us would've loved to upgrade to pork fried rice with our meals instead of the standard white rice, but a $3 upcharge seemed a bit steep. 3 dishes came with soup, and they also give you duck sauce and crispy wontons for the table when first seated. The wontons were oily and tasted a bit stale. With 2 appetizers, 4 entrees and 2 soft drinks our total came to around $110 which isn't too bad. Around $20 a person. I wouldn't say I'm dying to come back to this restaurant, but if you need a Chinese food fix, this is a good place to go.

Shortly after the call, she began receiving hostile text messages from someone associated with the restaurant calling her a "b**ch" and saying things like "you don't have a mom or dad." Screenshots are attached. This was harassment and it terrified her. The messages were so aggressive that they made her cry, and it scared her knowing that this person has access to her phone number. She's now worried about the possibility of someone like this being able to find where she lives. This behavior is completely unacceptable and extremely unprofessional. It also says a lot about the type of people they are hiring if an employee thinks this is an acceptable way to treat a customer. Whoever sent these messages should be identified and fired immediately. No customer should ever be treated like this.

You might be confused by mixed reviews. I will sum them up for you quickly…read more The service is one of the friendliest I have ever seen in any restaurant, the place is insanely clean (especially for Chinese takeout), and the food isn't overly greasy. If you're used to greasy Chinese takeout, you might feel as though it's missing some taste, but my meal was super clean & tasty! That meal was General Tso's with Lo Mein (no vegetables, other than cooked green peppers that came with the chicken, which was very good). This is the first time someone at a Chinese takeout place asked me what spice level I wanted. I like spicy food but she recommended I start with 1 on a scale of 1-5. I said sure. There was no spice at all, which was a first for me for General Tso's, but it was still very good. The Lo Mein noodles were also solid--not literally but in taste quality. About a year ago, I ordered Wonton Soup from here and wasn't crazy about it. I had no intentions of eating here again but I recently left a toxic environment (work-related) and this led to my calm side kicking back in. This side has also led to me believing in second chances (and forgiveness--to an extent). So, I gave Great Wok a second chance and it paid off. Therefore, maybe this is more than a review for a Chinese takeout place and a life message since you're reading this. A crazy side note but it's 100% real: Their water from the tap is amazing. Idk why or how but trust me and you will see. I recommend Great Wok. It won't be for everyone but I like it.
