    We recently moved to Encanterra and was looking for a good Chinese Food place. This was the closest to our home so we thought we'd try them first. Our 1st visit, we got: Szechuan Beef, Shrimp w/Mixed Vegetables, and Chicken with Cashew Nut. On our 2nd visit, we tried Mongolian Beef, Seafood Delight and General Tso's Chicken (made with dark meat - yum). We were told that, in general, if the entree has fried chicken, they use dark meat, all other chicken dishes are white meat. We love the thigh meat so this is good to know. We've enjoyed all of the entrees, but our top favorites are Szechuan Beef, Shrimp w/Mixed Veggies (Seafood Delight is also very good) and Chicken w/Cashew Nut. Both times we've called in, it's been about a 40 minute wait so order before you get really hungry! They give plenty of food and it is really piping hot! We look forward to trying some more items.

    All right so I ordered the boneless spare ribs this is what I got. This is the equivalent of ordering beef ribs and them bringing you a plane of carne asada would you be happy? I will include a picture of what it looks like on the menu and what others have posted online.

    This is our first time here. We weren't to sure about it, it's squished in between a Froyo and Chiro. What a pleasant surprise! The food was delicious! We had the Lunch Specials : the L19 Low Mein (Soft Noodles) L20 Boneless Spare Ribs and the L28 Beef with Veggies The gal behind the counter was very helpful and friendly and the whole vibe was pretty casual and laid back. We def will be coming back! Oh! They're closed from 3-4pm for their lunch break!

    Favorite sizzling rice soup in the east valley. Love their menu and awesome customer service!read more

    I had seen reviews and pictures about the garlic chicken and told my daughter about it so that is…read morewhat we planned to order. I planned to place my order online and did not see the garlic chicken, just garlic shrimp. I was super disappointed. My daughter told me to just order whatever and I knew she had never had moo shu chicken and this is a dish I love so I decided to go with that. Needless to say, this restaurants moo shu chicken was not like any other moo shu I have ever had. I mean the crepe and plum sauce was the same but the chicken and veggies were different and not in a good way. The flavor was mild and the plum sauce that was spread on the crepe saved this dish. What was disappointing was they gave us one small condiment cup of plum sauce and it wasn't even filled to the top. It was enough for two crepes and we had 6 crepes and chicken and veggies to fill all the crepes. If the plum sauce was what saved this dish imagine my disappointment in not having enough plum sauce for the remaining crepes. They definitely need to give a larger portion of plum sauce. I have turned my daughter on to egg drop soup and she loves it from our usual Chinese restaurant so she wanted to try it here. This egg drop had corn and tofu (we think, but not sure) in it. It was very bland. She had to add soy sauce to it to spruce up the flavor. We always order wonton chips for egg drop soup and did this time too. Their wonton chips were bland as well. Lastly, we ordered crab puffs and the same wonton shells were used for the crab puffs. Just another item that was bland. If I could get the garlic chicken I would try this place again but since I can't I don't foresee us ordering from here again. We will drive a few miles down the street to get our favorite place.

    My wife and I finally decided to give Wei Wok a try for date night after passing by this spot so…read moremany times, and WOW--we could not have been more pleasantly surprised! We ordered the orange chicken and Mongolian beef combos, and the value was incredible. Each combo came with soup, two crab rangoons, a spring roll, fried rice, chicken low mein, and your entree, all for around $15. That's a LOT of food for the price, and everything came out quickly and tasted fresh. The two ladies working that night were both incredibly nice and attentive. They checked on us throughout our visit and made sure we had everything we needed. They also mentioned that while it happened to be a quieter night when we visited, they can get extremely busy during the winter months and sometimes even have a wait for takeout. After eating here, I can definitely understand why! The restaurant itself is very roomy, with plenty of seating and what looked like enough space to accommodate larger parties without feeling cramped. Nothing about Wei Wok is overly glamorous--and honestly, that's part of what we loved about it. It just hits right. It's the kind of place you can drive past for years while trying all sorts of different restaurants, only to finally stop in and realize you've been missing a hidden gem the whole time. My wife and I have officially added Wei Wok to our list of date-night favorites. Great food, huge portions, friendly service, quick turnaround, and an awesome price. Sometimes the best finds are the ones that have been hiding in plain sight! Highly recommend giving this place a try!

    We had never been here before and we were so pleasantly surprised at how delicious it was!! We felt…read morethat the amount of food for the price was generous and we had enough to bring home for a whole other meal. My husband had the 1/2 roast duck and was raving. He was going to save some to take home but ended up finishing it off before we left. He couldn't get enough. I had the orange chicken and I have to say, I have never had orange chicken as delicious as this one. It was thin chicken pieces with the perfect crispness from being fried and the sauce wasn't super sticky and gooey, it was excellent and my mouth has been watering just thinking about going back for this dish. My son had the teriyaki chicken kid combo and he loved it. The combos are a great value, coming with a soup starter, an appetizer with 2 crab puffs and a spring roll, then the entree has 2 sides, lo mein and fried rice. The service was great and you could tell from those who walked in that this was a place they frequented, knowing some of the employees well and having nice conversations with them. Definitely worth a try! We will absolutely be back!
