China Wok exceeded my expectations. It's mostly carry out and the interior is modest, but most importantly, the food was excellent. I had the chicken with steamed mixed vegetables, and it was hot, fresh, light, and flavorful. The eggroll was homemade and nicely filled. You can really taste the care put into the preparation. Delicious!! There is a wide menu on par with options at any solid Chinese restaurant. Looking forward to trying other items. Highly recommend!! read more

The young man at the counter needs to get better customer service he always has a attitude. I will never come back here. And the food is not that good. read more

Decent place for takeout. Got some Mongolian beef, chicken with garlic sauce, and house special fried rice. The chicken with garlic sauce actually was spicy which was a nice surprise. They were very busy with lots of people who had placed orders on the phone coming in to get their orders, deliveries going out and people walking in and ordering. It's a small place and can't really seat too many people but it's definitely more of a takeout place. read more

As usual the Singapore Rice Noodles are good. But when ordering fried Won Ton, one expects them to be stuffed, not just Won Ton SKINS. And for 4.95? No never again. This is a true buyer beware. read more

Personally my favorite spot for Chinese food in the Mount Prospect / Des Plaines area. Great service, very quick preparation! 5 stars

Beef lo mein was so good. Mount prospect has great chinese places. I need to find one downtown.

First time visit I Had pan fried pot stickers(dumplings on menu) and beef lo mein- both were excellent, prices were very reasonable

China Wok is a fine quick service restaurant to get some Chinese food from. They can usually have your call in orders ready within 10-15 minutes of ordering. The restaurant doesn't really have a lot of available dine in space, it's definitely more a to go restaurant as the inside is pretty small. The Chinese Food here is pretty good, but it seems like every time I go to place an order, the prices continue to go up and up whenever I want to place an order (inflation!). Here's a tip - if you order from here, do the lunch special as you get a ton of food and get a few bucks off compared to non lunch time orders. read more

Local chinese takeout... food has been hot and fresh so far, so good... Wife apporved!!!!!!!!

I love the Americanized Chinese Food at China Wok II. I've been going there for lunch specials since I moved to the area, 6 or 7 years ago. They were really a great deal for the price, and truly a "lunch special" price. I'm giving CW four stars because unfortunately the past few years the prices have skyrocketed for lunch specials, from $5.95 up to $10.50 now. Personally I used to go weekly but now to me that is not a "special" price and is the same or more than any other local lunch fast food. I can't justify the almost doubling of the price in just a few short years, so sadly I have been frequenting the shop less and less. I do love the food but it's not the same value it once was. My wages haven't almost doubled, so I can't afford to pay almost double. read more

Really good food!! Made fresh!! Egg rolls were delish!! Always hot and yummy! Lots of menu choices! You can't go wrong here!!

** Super Fast Service ** This is the first and I hope only one star review I have written. A off day could be understood after all we are people and no one is perfect. This was two for two. There will not be a third time. The "super fast service" is the only good thing I can say about this place. Ordered delivery and the food was here in about fifteen minutes, not that I'm complaining about fast service but fifteen minutes should have been a red flag for the amount of food we ordered. I honestly believe some of the food was actually spoiled. Bbq Pork: can not even describe the taste. It was. unrecognizable. Horrible taste to the meat and terrible aftertaste from the sauce. Orange Chicken: Again with the terrible tang from the sauce. Never experienced such a taste. You don't expect the greatest when ordering Chinese, usually your in the mood for something specific. This place was thee WORST I have ever eaten. The absolute worst. Everything tasted completely off. The tang in the food was not of too much spice or syrup but of spoiled food. Unbelievably bad. Safe to say we will not be ordering from here again. I urge others to find an alternative. read more

Been searching for a good to Chinese restaurant and this is it. Really enjoy the chicken on a stick, the shrimp fried rice. The wontons and crab Rangoon are nice and hot each time our delivery order arrives. I don't think we've had one bad thing from this place. read more

The food was bland and the interior of the place didn't appear to be very clean. The price that they have on their online menu not correct either. The price of the food was higher read more

I absolutely love this China Wok! I live just down the block and order from them at least a couple of times a week. I have tried many of their dishes and I am never disappointed. Last time I visit, I had the cumin lamb, which was spicy and flavorful, and the soup dumplings, which were absolutely delicious. The food is hot and fresh, the portion size is very generous and the owner is so kind. Restaurant was busy, quick, and friendly! I highly recommend this place, perfect spot to bring your friends and family. read more

While the food was prepared promptly, it was very disappointing. My group had various items and we were all disappointed. Food was bland, fried rice was super bland. It was obvious that the fryer oil was extremely old as you can taste it in every bite. They do not include utensils with their orders which is extremely important for those visiting and staying at a hotel. We had to scramble to find forks read more

China Wok - Fighting a hang over :) Spicy chicken wings, meat filled wontons and pork egg roll. - Chinese Near Me - Des Plaines, Illinois

I've been comming here for over 10 years and never a problem with using the coupon for free food after spending $38. But was short .20 cents and the kid that works there now made a big deal about the deal ( orange chicken). It said on the online order it was applied but they never put it on. They want to fight over .20 cents is very bad business. Make sure you check the coupon is before tax or you get NOTHING. The old man that was there before would of not been mean and gave the food. TIMES HAVE CHANGED WITH THIS PLACE!!! read more

A very tiny place and the food is just ok. If you're looking for authentic Chinese restaurant, this is not the place for you.

I am completely surprised how good China Wok II is! I've seen it a million times but didn't think much of it because it looked a bit shabby and was in a strip mall. However the prices are amazing and the food is even better! Shocked. The lady working was friendly, nice & quick in taking my order. For two lunch specials piled HIGH with food it was only $9.75. It really is a ton of food. I got one to have for lunch and one to have for dinner but it was way too big to eat it all in one sitting for lunch. For lunch I tried the eggroll and sesame chicken. I'm very picky with my eggrolls and they have VERY good eggrolls. Big, crispy, filled with an extremely tasty combination of ingredients inside. I loved it! The sesame chicken was better then I've had anywhere in a long time. The flavor was amazing, just spot on. The chicken pieces were the perfect size and perfect crispness. For dinner, I had the sweet & sour pork. Again very tasty, way above average, huge portion, better then usual pork. I will absolutely be back to China Wok II! read more

I still give this place a 5/5 even though they don't offer sweet and sour sauce with an order of crab rangoons. Maybe I've been super spoiled in the past, but every single Chinese restaurant I've ever been to has offered some sort of sauce with the rangoons. I don't even see sweet and sour sauce on the menu as an extra/side item. Bummer. read more

We ordered take out for the first time and loved it! Huge pot stickers and large portions. They used tender chicken breast meat and all of the right seasonings. Def our go-to now! read more

Very fresh, perfectly cooked, and seasoned. Staff was professional and carry out was clean. We will be back!

This is the best American Chinese food on the area. Just went and grabbed dinner. The general Tao chicken was very good. The order came with crab Rangoon which wasn't my favorite. I usually love their hot and sour soup, but it was incredibly salty today. Couldn't eat it. read more

I ordered from China Wok for a family event. Spoke to Ken . I ordered a tray of Vegetable Egg Rolls, crab Rangoon and Shrimp fried rice. I asked Ken to cut the egg rolls in half and when the order was delivered , it was exceptional!! The Egg Rolls were all perfectly sliced in halves, the crab Rangoon was crispy and full of crab and the shrimp fried rice was perfect. The amounts were perfect. My family was very impressed. The delivery was on time and the delivery person was wonderful. Ken confirmed my order that it would be delivered on time and the amounts would be sufficient for my event. His advise was right on. He went above and beyond to help me with my order! Thank you to Ken and staff . Everything was perfect. Will definitely continue ordering from China Wok!! read more

Been ordering from this lace for probably 20 years, they were always a cheap fast alternative, lately the place has become down right disgusting! I just picked up a dish called Four Seasons, $13.96, supposed to have Beef, Pork, chicken, and shrimp. First off there was only one shrimp, the beef was filled with gristle, inedible! The taste was awful and the vegetables were uncooked. They use the cheapest meats, said to say but after so many years it's time to ditch this place! Yuk!!! ! read more

Always good food been ordering from this place for years and I'm always happy .. really great service and fast delivery ...

We ordered 2dinners and the food was excellent We had baby shrimp Lo Mein and pan fried noodles. And walnut shrimp. All was awesome. When I went to pickup the guy was pleasant and very welcoming. I would order again read more

A little Chinese take-out joint found in a strip mall. The place is clean enough to sit and have a quick meal and could probably handle a few customers dining-in at a time. The Crab Rangoon was bland and if ordered, you'll need a lot of sauce to enjoy. Their egg roll was better than decent. Fresh, though not oily or soggy. I stopped in on a weekday to try a lunch special and found the food to be...average. They offered a good portion and the taste was alright, for the price. If you've read other reviews, you'll notice that some of the ladies mention a large portion or "foods piled high." Not the case for my Dad and I. But when the next customers entered I noticed something a little fishy. All customers get a sizable portion with the lunch special, right. But, if there's a dude at the counter when an attractive lady enters, well, she's in for a surprise = food, piled, high. Not to get anyone's hopes up or to cause a stir, it really depends on the likes of the counter guy. That day, he clearly had a thing for "Gilfs.". Food / cost ratio is alright but I don't think I'd repeat. Even though we spent close to twenty dollars on food, they asked for $.30 cents for hot sauce, stating the charge has something to do with rising food costs. (My ass, seriously. If that were true, you'd be giving us a decent brand of sauce) read more

Good: hot & sour soup was ok. Bad: ordered large shrimp w/broccoli. It had clumps of jelly-like starch that wasn't dissolved and stuck everything together. I never quite seen anything like it before. The broccoli was over cooked as well which was pretty unusual for Chinese food. My plan of saving half for another meal didn't work out as I threw away most of it. The Yelp ratings definitely did not match my expectations here. read more

China Wok - All I can say is lumps of starch clumping everything together. Overcooked veggies. Not good Chinese. - Chinese Near Me - Des Plaines, Illinois

If you're in the mood for Chinese or if you just want to slow down your blood flow a bit, this is the place to go! The food is great, always fresh, and has never let me down! At the same time keep in mind that most everything is fried and what's not fried just doesn't taste that great :-) If you in the area and want to grab a quick lunch, this is the place to visit! read more

This food is terrible, probably the worst chinese food in the state! I got the hot and sour soup with no flavor except extra raw black pepper. The fried rice was half white rice like they fried some, then mixed it with plain white rice. WOULD NEVER GO BACK!!!! read more

Worst dinner ever, had kung pow shrimp....carrots were hard looks like they were never cooked, the meal was not spicy at all. Nothing good to say about either meal, and why was there so much juice in the containers ? Never again, We will stick with "Orange Chicken" on Elmhurst Rd. read more

If you're used to NYC Chinese take out, this place may very well disappoint you - at least that's my feeling right now. Disappointing food. It kind of disintegrates in your mouth without chewing and leaves this weird grainy feeling in your mouth. Almost as if this food has been frozen, even freezer burned - for a long time. I won't come back. If anyone has a recommendation for good Chinese take out way out here in the burbs of Chicago, please let me know. Happy eating! read more

Solid American style Chinese take out. Cheap, fast, not fancy. If you don't set the bar to high for your expectations you will be happy with the food. There is much better choices with the trade off of time and more cost. read more

Sesame chicken was pretty good, fried rice was ok, delivery was quick and friendly. Overall nothing special.

I ordered steamed dumplings which were good, I had to pretty much eat them plain because I got a 1/3 of the way filled tiny container of the dumpling sauce, definitely needed more. I ordered the moo shu chicken with the 4 pancakes. There was no hoisin sauce. That's what makes the moo shu. So I had chicken and cabbage because that's what it was without the hoisin. Make sure you ask for napkins & utensils ... I don't think they put that in with the order u less you ask. read more

Overall this is a solid cheap Chinese takeout. That said, not every dish is a hit. Personally I'm not a big fan of the Egg Drop Soup, Chow Mein, and Chop Suey. The fried noodles for Chow Mein is literally just deep fried noodles you pour on top of a dish. I was hoping for stir-fry noodles, and not that. That said, minus the dishes I've listed, I haven't had anything else that is disappointing. I've particularly enjoy the Mongolian Beef, Fried Rice, Won Ton Soup, Lo Mein, and Pepper and Steak. I have tried the Kun Pao Chicken, and it's good, but a little too much sauce. Best of all many of these main dishes have a combination plate which comes with a main dish, side of fried rice, and a couple crab rangoon or an egg role. Best of all, most only set you back $7 to $8. It's a great deal. Finally, most main dishes by itself are between $6 to $9 depending on which size you get, which is a lot of food. Appetizers are cheap, and a small soup only sets you back a $2. Overall the food is solid, and you can't beat the price. That said, try out some things and figure out what you like or don't like since I've been going here for a good 7-years now. read more

Excellent flavor in the garlic sauce with chicken and superior flavor in the cashew beef. The pina colada smoothie was delicious. There was a very nice man working the counter. I will definitely be back! read more
