    The three A's: Asian food, Anime, alcohol
    Mouse S.

    I've lived in this area for almost 10 years and never been here. It's definitely a bit misleading and confusing as you see the prices on the front of the building before you even walk in. It always seemed a bit too expensive to me. I've been to all the other shops in this strip mall, but finally decided to take a chance on it. Definitely a hidden gem, hole in the wall place. Lots of food for a good price, portions are plenty big enough too. The service is good and they are friendly enough. I'll remember this place next time I'm wanting Asian food!

    Haven't been here for years so after yoga tonight, feeling like some beef broccoli and called in an order! Was told 20-25 minutes so took my time driving there. Love wonton soup so added that on to my combo meal and glad I did! Lots of veggies, broccoli, cabbage and a few carrot slivers in with chicken and wontons. A meal by itself! I had a bit and saved the rest for another meal. The combo meal I ordered was more then enough for two people with beef broccoli, chicken chow mein and fried rice. Now onto flavor, a little on the bland side so I added some pepper and soyu to beef it up!( I'm seeing a trend, maybe it's my taste buds!) Definitely satisfied and will be sure to order again! One of the few Chinese restaurants in North Valleys. No eating in, all the tables were removed so take out orders only but close to home so no worries! Cheesy decorations but hey this place has been here forever!! Check them out, prices are reasonable for the amount of food you get!!

    It's been a while since I've ordered from here, and I was really in the mood for soup. As always, my go to is Wor Wonton Soup when I need something hearty. The soups initial temperature typically is hot as hades so the walk a mile home in 40°F weather actually proved useful and everything was a proper eating temperature. The broth was flavorful and required no additional seasoning. The usual ingredients were inside except one; and can be there one time and gone another so expect a little inconsistency on repeat orders. Sliced beef was missing but not a deal breaker. Time from order to receipt of the order was longer than expected at about 45-minutes but worth the wait all the same. They've condensed the menu a bit since COVID-19 began their journey into a busy local business that tries to please their customers as best as possible. I wish some of their previously popular items were still available, like their egg foo young, but what they do have on the menu is decent enough to stay a loyal customer.

    I came here once and just knew that this place not only had quantity but also top quality chinese food. Compared to the other local restaurants Asian Wok tastes the best in my opinion and ill keep coming here as long as theyre open. No matter how long the wait is for your food, be patient because its definitely worth it! Shout out and thanks to Janet and the staff for all the good food!

    Great place with wonderful food and prices. This is your total to go Chinese food spot. You can only take it to go. They give you plenty of food and it is always tasty. I like that they use white meat for many of their chicken dishes and the pork fried noodles are made with really lean pork marinated in a char siu seasoning. I ordered Kung pao chicken, garlic chicken and pork chow mein. My family enjoyed all the dishes.

    I was out in the North Valleys and craving Chinese food again, haha. I decided to return to a place I first tried in 1997. And I was not disappointed! I have been to the Asian Wok in NW Reno, in recent history. And I loved it. So I wanted to go back to the one in Stead. First of all, the staff was friendly and helpful. Even wished everybody a merry christmas! Talked to everyone who came in. There wasn't a big crowd, but a few people there. I ordered crab rangoon, general's chicken and shrimp fried rice. The meal takes a little bit to cook, but thats okay! It was made just right! The chicken was huge pieces and meaty! Lots of rice with lots of shrimp! There is also a great collection of wellness tea to drink! Recommend if you are in the North Valleys!

    Asian Wok is a good place to get Chinese, especially since there's no other option nearby. I will say, it's kind of obnoxious that there's no delivery option, even with Post-Mates or anything like that. Now, I'd never say this was top of the line Chinese, but it is perfectly fine. It is good even. It satisfies whatever Chinese food craving you're having, and for SUPER affordable prices. I got 3 entrees and an appetizer for just over $30. Fed 3 full grown men. I'll 100% be ordering from them again. Perhaps even more regularly if they start delivering once more.

    Ok so...the Pork didn't thaw in time to cook some Stir Fry so we decided to have some Chinese take out. We normally do Egg Roll King in a pinch, but wife wanted to try something new. She was driving so I left it to her. My wife always orders the most Americanized Chinese food. That just what she does. Though I enjoy more Mainland Chinese foods, it's easy to compare these foods she ordered. Here is what we ordered: Generals Chicken Bricolli Beef House fried rice Potstickers Chicken chow mien Sweet and sour pork Vegetarian Delite All at around $55 dollars. I give this take-out a solid middle of the road rating. Though nothing was bad, nothing stood out either. The pot stickers were ok. The battered meat was heavy on the batter. Chow mien was almost taste-less. Add some soy sauce (light) and our own home made Thai chili sauce and the food was bearable. It tasted about the same as the Chinese food you get in the UK, bland. So if you like Americanized, bland Chinese take-out...try it out.

The Wok is one of those places, and Sichuan/Chongqing food is one of those things that I'm jealous of people who get to experience it for the first time. Here's how to have an epic time at The Wok: Step 1. Get 4 to 8 people total that aren't afraid to try something a little different and maybe slightly spicy (seriously though it's not actually that spicy). If you need help with this step message me, I'd share a meal with some random people if it's at The Wok. Step 2. Flip to the back page of the menu, and order a few things that sound good to the group. Don't waste your time with the American Chinese menu (even though what I've had off of that menu is actually really good too). Make sure to get a decent mix of stuff like appetizers, veggies, noodle, soup, and meat dishes. Also don't be afraid to order multiple times. This gives you more time with the menu, and you can judge what sounds good in the moment. Step 3. Share the food family style with everyone until you are all full. I think at this point I've eaten everything on the Sichuan menu, and can say that if it sounds good to you, it is! Some of my favorite dishes are: Wontons in Chili oil, Bone in chicken wings, Spicy boiled fish fillet, Beef noodle soup, Green beans, Salt and Pepper tofu, Dan dan noodles, and Mapo Tofu. Finally, Janet (the manager) is amazing, and always willing to give a recommendation.

Decor is a bit overdone, but that seems to fit the vibe of anywhere with casinos, so can't blame them for trying to fit in. A bar dominates the view from the entrance, then ample tables of several sizes to the right. We filled the rear corner (two giant tables) and had mostly good food, although the sweet and sour chicken was forgettable. A fried squash (pumpkin?) was delectable, had some very good bean curd/mixed veggies, the Sichuan water fish did the job but was a bit short from the best I've had-- which to be fair is tough because there is so much Sichuan food everywhere these days. A second veggie dish with lotus root was also excellent, and the sweet and sour pork, while not memorable, was distinctly better than the sweet and sour chicken.

We ordered the Vermicelli with Grilled Chicken, Dry Fried Beef Chow Fun, and Gai Lan with Beef. The portions were generous, and the prices were reasonable. With "Hong Kong Diner" in the name, I was expecting authentic Cantonese stir-fries with good wok hei. Unfortunately, the Dry Fried Beef Chow Fun lacked that signature smoky flavor, and the texture was closer to lo fun than traditional chow fun. The Gai Lan with Beef also lacked wok hei. The outer layer of the gai lan stems had been peeled away, so the stems lost the crisp texture that makes gai lan so enjoyable. The Vermicelli with Grilled Chicken was overly tender and quite salty. It seemed to be marinated so heavily that I couldn't really taste the natural flavor of the chicken. Overall, the restaurant offers generous portions, reasonable prices, and friendly service. I just wish the Cantonese dishes had delivered the wok hei I was expecting from a place with "Hong Kong Diner" in its name. :)

We decided to make it our next date night spot. We went on a Friday around 5:30 and it wasn't very crowded yet. They asked if we preferred a table or a booth, and we went with a booth near the front. The restaurant itself is really nice, but I'll say the booth felt a little tight. Next time, we'll probably go with a table for a bit more space. The service was top notch. The staff was incredibly attentive, and our drinks were constantly refilled. Our glasses were never empty, which always stands out. About 15 minutes after we sat down, the place filled up fast. It seemed like most people coming in had reservations, so I'd definitely recommend making one if you're planning to go after 6 pm. We decided on the Shanghai Dinner. I ordered the sweet and sour pork, and my wife got the sweet and sour chicken. I was tempted by the cashew chicken and kung pao chicken, but we'll save those for next time. The appetizers were amazing. The meal comes with spring rolls, crab rangoon, paper wrapped chicken, and honey glazed BBQ spareribs. Everything was delicious. My wife loved the paper wrapped chicken, and for me, the ribs were the standout. They were tender with just the right hint of sweetness. Honestly, I could've eaten a full plate of just those and been happy. For sides, I had the egg flower soup, which was really flavorful, and my wife had the salad. She could not stop talking about how good the dressing was. Both the sweet and sour pork and chicken were great. The sauce had that perfect tangy, slightly sweet flavor. That said, next time we probably won't order the same sauce for both dishes. I think pairing something like sweet and sour with kung pao would give a better balance with a little heat to cut through the sweetness. Overall, this place is a winner. Great food, solid portions, and the price is very reasonable at about $33 per person for the Shanghai Dinner. My wife enjoyed everything so much that after seeing another table order the duck, she's already talking about coming back to try it. I've been trying to get her to try duck for a while, so I'm looking forward to that next visit. We'll definitely be back.
