    This place is so busy, like unbelievably busy & the parking sucks around here. I called in my order at 10:57 am, she told me to pickup at 11:30, I arrived at 11:30 and she said 2 more minutes. I was going to pay with credit card but she asked if I can pay cash bc there's a cc fee- ok no worries, I'll pay cash. She was literally on the phone taking orders the whole time. I stood there impatiently waiting, along with 9 other customers and finally got my order at 11:44. I got the sesame chicken, chicken with broccoli and chicken wings combo as well as an egg drop soup, bbq spare ribs & extra wings- came out to $46, which isn't too bad. All the food tasted mediocre, definitely had better on Long Island. Really wanted to try the fried wings from here & thought it could replace the place I used to get it from that closed. Unfortunately no, the wings were well seasoned but overfried, ribs were dry & chewy and sesame chicken was soggy. More like bad wok, no thanks :X

    Needed a quick dinner and found this place on google. I ordered some chicken wings, general tso chicken, ribs, and beef broccoli with shrimp.I expected this order to take a while but when I arrived 15 mins later, it was actually ready. Usually don't expect it to be 15 mins when they tell me 15 mins on the phone. Because of the pandemic, there's a glass installation on the counter to block any contact between the workers and us. All the workers wore masks while cooking, which was a bit weird since covid can't be passed through food. The food was bomb!!! The chicken wings were piping hot and super crispy. I asked for a lot of hot sauce, which I honestly expect to get 4-5 packets, the lady gave me at least 15. Those Chinese restaurant packet hot sauce and chicken is so perfect together. Highly recommend!! The ribs ares are also very good. It was nice and tender. But the general tso chicken is where it's at. Sooo crispy and perfectly seasoned. Highly recommend. The beef broccoli have very big shrimp and a lot of beef but honestly prefer the dish to have more broccoli. I highly recommend this place!! A bit small interior but definitely a gem

    Nice lunch spot.

    Best Wok has become a popular lunch spot for me. Just two blocks from my office, it's easy for that quick Chinese food fix I go through from time to time. Best Wok is a small shop with a couple of tables if you decide to eat in. It pretty much follows the same formula that all the other take-outs on Long Island use. The owner is a delightful person and always greets me (and anyone else that comes through the door with a big smile). Honestly, I have only purchased some very simple thing here, soup, egg-rolls, fried rice, and some chicken dishes. Everything here has always been tasty and fresh. I am particularly fond of hot and sour soup and I think Best Wok does a great job with it. Egg Rolls are good crispy and not greasy. Chicken has always been cooked well, not tough or rubbery. Kudos to Best Wok... I look forward to my next crave.

    Such a satisfying lunch--this place continues to impress…read more Ken recognized us immediately and welcomed us back--always a thoughtful touch. Service from Ken and Alex was attentive, seamless, and effortless throughout. The hot and sour soup with grilled shrimp was rich, comforting, and perfectly balanced with just the right kick. The half Peking duck--served with delicate pancakes and sauces on the side--was cooked perfectly, boneless, and absolutely delicious. I especially loved the crispy skin--so flavorful and satisfying. The Malaysian-style red curry with seasonal vegetables, roti, and grilled shrimp, served with brown rice, was equally flavorful and well executed. Prices reflect the quality--and it shows. Delicious food, warm service--we'll definitely be back.

    We were four and mostly agreed we enjoyed the appetizers (especially the tri-color vegetable…read moredumplings and the crystal shrimp dumplings), but not so much the main courses (especially not the marinated grilled salmon and the Buddha's delight). Also, early on, we had a little service issue that was tacitly resolved in our favor. We only wanted to order appetizers at first and later order the main courses. The server told us words to the effect that they take the order for everything at the same time because if later the restaurant is packed, the kitchen gets overwhelmed, and, also, they bring out the food whenever it's ready. As requested, we gave her our order for everything, but ultimately she was able to just serve the appetizers first and then pause until we were done with them before she brought out the main courses. My wife wanted a sweet white wine with her fish, like a Mosel. The closest they said they had was a fruity white Riesling, called Selbach/Incline, which turned out to be very fruity and delicious!

I was reminded they give complementary ice cream and fruit at the end of the meal like most Chinese food sit in restaurants did if they didn't have dessert on the menu. We were stuffed from the delicious food we ate but looking forward to that slice of orange or taste of ice cream. We received 4 chocolate wontons and a 2009 dollar bill. I asked the waiter jokingly, " what happened? You don't like us? He said they don't give fruit anymore or ice cream since Covid. ( MEANWHILE) the table next to us and across from us got it. I'm going to take all the candies from the front when i leave next time!! Food is good all. Enjoy

On this particular occasion I decided to order via Uber Eats and was not happy with my order. It was cold by the time it got to me. Here's what I was told by the driver - the order had been mistakenly picked up by another driver and he had to wait. When I called the restaurant to try and get the truth the gentleman answered the phone was evasive on what happened and when I questioned him further he got defensive and said that he wasn't there when "it happened" I still don't know what happened - did the wrong driver take the food and it had to be remade by restaurant and wait for another driver. OR was the food returned by the first driver to the restaurant and the second driver took the bag and delivered it to me, in which case I had multiple hands on my bag. Just to be safe - never ordering from that restaurant again and never using Uber Eats again - both places are equally at fault here. Can't stand not being told the truth - that's underestimating me

    Good place for drinks and sushi!…read more Came for the lunch prix fixe ($37) and it was pretty worth it for the amount of food you get! Would recommend their spicy tuna roll appetizer (the sushi rolls are the best things here!). I got the braised short rib as my main. It was a tasty first few bites, but became a bit dry once you ran out of sauce (especially since it's a lean cut). The peanut noodles that it came with were alright. Ended with the banana wonton dessert! It only comes with 1 wonton, but the best part is the lychee sorbet and banana cream it comes with. Very yummy (and a small dessert but good enough to end the meal!) Overall, stick to the sushi! Get their drinks! Had the coconut and lychee cocktail which was super yummy. Service was amazing (constantly changing plates, cleaning up our table between courses, friendly). Would recommend a reservation especially if you come at night as it gets crowded.

This review is based on my most recent visit. You know when you're craving a particular dish and can almost taste it before it arrives, only for it to be nothing like you expected? That's exactly how I felt about the scallion ginger lobster. It had absolutely no flavor. This is usually a dish that's packed with flavor, but instead it tasted like boiled lobster water poured over lobster shells. Very disappointing. The fried rice was decent, although a little light on seasoning. I could have done without the fried omelet on top, but that's just my personal preference. The Peking duck was good, but I've honestly had better at my local spot for a lot less money. The flavors were stronger, the portions were larger, and the overall value was much better. The tempura roll was just okay. There wasn't enough shrimp, and it felt underwhelming for the price. The biggest disappointment of the night was the short rib. It was not good at all. The peanut flavor completely overpowered the noodles that came with the dish, making it difficult to enjoy. I really wanted to love this place. I don't mind spending money when the food, service, and overall experience justify the price. Unfortunately, that wasn't the case here. The bill was far too high for the level of service and flavors we received. Overall, It's a nice looking restaurant but I didn't have a great dining experience and probably won't be back especially at those prices.
