Quite possibly one of the best Chinese restaurants tucked away in small town America. I have been to Chinatown in New York City, Chicago and LA and the food has never been close to this level of food. I placed a to go order and it was ready in eight minutes, and when I walked in on a Thursday evening, nobody was dining in which I found strange. I got the general Tso meal with crab Rangoon's and let me tell you something. The flavor of both dishes made me weak behind my knees. I have been to 49 out of 50 states and have had some variation of Chinese/Asian food in every single one of them.... this is head and shoulders above any other restaurant I have ever had and I just cannot put into words how great this place was. Whether you are here for vacation or work, like I am, please do yourself a favor and head on down to China wok, across from the train car. (Tear rolling down cheek as I stand up and start clapping)....while alone in hotel room. Thank you City of Llano for letting this establishment bless this community with their food. read more

The BEST restaurant in Llano, always consistent, clean and the staff always has a wonderful attitude. The food always tastes fresh and you can taste the passion they put into every meal. I moved away from Llano into marble Falls about four years ago, and I still consider the drive worth it! read more

Don't let the look of this place deter you from grabbing some pretty good Asian food. We went in to order and were very enthusiastically greeted and given menus. We were debating splitting a meal when the girl behind the counter offered the option of the lunch menu (even though it was after 4pm). We ordered orange chicken & Kung Pao chicken and waited. While we were waiting, 3 locals came in for pick up orders... good sign! They were so nice to every customer- making each feel welcomed and appreciated. We got plenty of food (ate the rest of mine for lunch today) and enjoyed our food in the RV. Nice find in a cute town. read more

China Wok - Train station across the street - Chinese Near Me - Llano, Texas

Best chinese in all of llano city! A bit bland but im glad to see they are still here after all these years. Prices are ridiculously cheap, ambience is great. read more

When to China wok because I was in town for training and was told it was pretty good. Wow that was an extreme over exaggeration. Place was not the worst but no where near good. I walked in and they had this weird fountain made out of a kids pool should have been the first red flag. Walked up to the counter and looked over the menu and decided on fries rice. Should have gone with something else. Anyway the combo fried rice came out in the traditional Chinese carry out box and I opened it on first glance it looked OK. Went to taste it the fried rice was dry there barely any chicken, shrimp, beef or pork honestly didn't see any pork at all not sure if it was even one of the ingredients. What combo fried rice comes with no pork! Tried to fix it with soy sauce that didn't help just made me more thirsty! Any ways the rice was not good good. Some of the other guy's meals looked OK but most of them didn't finish the food so makes me wonder. Llano is very small town with a handful of restaurants so that might be the reason that there is like one Chinese food place here but yall can do something better this was a lack of trying and caring smh smh For all the people giving this place 5 stars yall are out of you cotten picking minds this was no where near 5 star. This must be the only Chinese yall have ever eaten! I gave it 2 stars because I was being generous.... Fried rice 1 outa 10 travesty sad sad I would not come here or tell anyone to come. Just my opinion yall try it if you want read more

The atmosphere is very nice and the food is great. The portions are large so you can usually bring home leftovers! The employees are VERY friendly and wonderful people. read more

I have eaten at Asian food places all over the world. This is some of the best I have ever had. The crab Rangoon IS the best I have ever had. Don't sleep on this place just because it's in a small town!! read more

First time eating here. A husband and wife run it. He takes the orders and she cooks. Order at the counter and grab your own silverware. Friends had recommended it so we thought we'd try it. The best thing we ordered was the hot and sour soup. It was the best I'd ever had and had pieces of scallion, mushroom along with the usual tofu and egg. Very very tasty. We ordered the three hotter combos and all were tasty. Pictures of what we ordered are below. Try it! read more

Very polite people nice atmosphere, egg drop soup is amazing, rest of food is good too.

Every time we come here, the food is incredible. It is always the same husband and wife running the show, and they've come to know us, even though we only come once or twice a month. The food is always fresh, comes out quickly, and is always seasoned perfectly and consistently. I have a thing about texture so one time my mother ordered for me before I showed up, and when I got there and the order was wrong (not because of the restaurant) the owners were insistent on making sure I ate, even though I had that mental block up. This place is a gem, for sure. read more

We love the Orange chicken "no hot" and spicy The portions are really good. Unlike other Chinese food, this restaurant has never made us feel bloated from the MSG. They are obviously using quality ingredients. Way better than Pai Wai, Panda Express, or PF Changs. read more

First, YOU HAVE TO GET THE CRAB RANGOONS! Second, GET THE CRAB RANGOONS! Seriously, people drive from Mason for these things. Michael at the counter may be the friendliest guy in Llano, and thats not an understatement. It's always great to do business with someone who appreciates you coming in. Now I'm a bug guy, but these portions are enough for me to make two meals. I prefer the General Tso's chicken. They tell you that it's spicy, but it's city people spicy or old church lady spicy. If you are used to the ordering scale, it's a 1 or 2. But great flavor! My wife likes the sweet and sour combo. Pork, chicken and shrimp in a tempora. FABULOUS! Even if you don't use the sauce, terrific. IBC on tap! That's rare. A nice change of pace. The cashew chicken is an honorable mention. There is something on their menu for everyone. read more

Best fast chinese food I've had in Texas...better than any place in Austin. Very reasonable prices and big portions. Great spot!

I had the shrimp with vegetables combo and egg drop soup. It was very good. The ambiance is like going back old west 150 years. I loved the building's architecture. It is sad to see it empty due to the pandemic. Very clean restrooms. read more

Very fresh, well prepared Chinese food! Fresh, hot egg rolls to begin followed by tender Szechuan beef and delicious grease free sweet and sour pork. Both lunch servings were filling and excellent. Service at the counter was very helpful and it was obvious they do a great takeout business. We look forward to trying more great food here! read more

This place was a true surprise. I was traveling, it was about lunch time, and I wasn't in the mood for a hamburger or chicken fried steak, so I checked Yelp and found this place. I went in and the owner asked me what I liked, I told him "all types of seafood", so he made me a combination plate that was wonderful! I highly recommend this place and ask the owner for suggestions! read more

China Wok is the most authentic Chinese place in the hill country! I stop by anytime I am in Llano, even if I take it to-go! The owner, Michael is the sweetest. read more

China Wok - Triple Delight and Vegetable Fried Rice - Chinese Near Me - Llano, Texas

Passing through town we used Yelp to find somewhere to eat and we ended up at China Wok because of the reviews. We ordered Crab ragoons, general tso chicken and Mongolian beef. Our entrees came with pork fried rice and an egg roll. Everything was so fresh and tasted amazing. I also love that this is a true family owned establishment and you can tell they care about their customers and their product. If we are ever in the area again we will definitely be stopping by. read more

I went into the restaurant today and asked what they had with no egg. They said that, unfortunately, they didn't have anything that didn't include egg. I asked if they had anything else with tofu and they answered no. So nothing vegan here now, apparently. read more

China Wok - Inside is charming. - Chinese Near Me - Llano, Texas

OMG. They need a resteraunt manager. We tried to eat here the other day. In line for 30 minutes, THEY RAN OUT OF FOOD. This was before 5pm. Not even the dinner rush. Today, still in line 40 minutes. NO ONE HELPING THE PEOPLE AT THE COUNTER. NO WAITSTAFF. Order at the counter. That also means no one busting tables. Guy at the counter is constantly on the phone. Get a minimum wage kid to do that. Out of EVERY type of chicken. Still here an HOUR later, waiting for food. Had we not paid, we'd have left LONG ago. The food was fresh cooked, so an A+ for that. The gentleman behind the clear shower curtain is very friendly, another A+. Too much screaming and berating him coming from the kitchen. read more

China Wok - Poorly run. Stand inside for ages because NO ONE HELPS THE PEOPLE AT THE COUNTER. NO WAIT STAFF, counter order. No one busting tables. - Chinese Near Me - Llano, Texas

We come here frequently now. The food is good, its always hot and fresh. The service is always good. And I appreciate how they serve it in the to-go plates so you can easily enjoy it for lunch the next day. It's that sort of Chinese food place and I love that. Great for the price too. The people are always nice and it's a cute old building that I appreciate. Also, it was open Christmas and that was fun for dinner that night. I need to say this, and clearly its not so bad that it keeps us from being here about 2xs per week like we honestly do- but when you enter this place, it smells like stagnant water. They have a little waterfall display that causes this. Once you walk thru that and into the dining area it goes away. This is the only reason I am giving them a 4 star vs 5 star. read more

Homemade food and good friendly staff. I recommend this place anytime you're in llano

Very good Chinese food in a very casual and relaxed atmosphere. The proprietor, Michael, is all about customer service and satisfaction. I have lunch or dinner here at least once a week. read more

Amazing homemade authentic Chinese food. Never disappointed in flavor, freshness, quality and price. I usually get moo gai pan because I don't tolerate gluten. Hubby gets beef with broccoli or shrimp with veggies. Wonderful!! Awesome fresh made lemonade read more

Amazing food!!! Wonderful people! It is a small, locally owned business. The owners are wonderful. The place was clean, the food was wonderful, and the prices were very good as well. The staff was so sweet, we will definitely be returning! This is a definite stop is you're going through Llano! read more

A hidden gem! Best crab rangoons ever. Mom and Pop restaurant but some amazing food. Order at the counter. Clean up your own table. Food was hot and fresh. You won't be disappointed. read more

Very clean, very good. There are no waiters. You order at the counter. Highly recommended.

Way better Asian comfort food than one would expect in small town Texas. The fried rice is rather lackluster, lacking in basically anything but onion, but the lo mein and other dishes are flavorful and well executed. read more

What a great find. This is a small family run restaurant. You order your food and they bring it to your table. You serve yourself--get your own eating utensils, paper plates, etc. They bring the food to you in take-out containers. Food was good and fresh. We ordered two of the Vegetable options -- one with broccoli, one with tofu (soft) and additionally ordered the veggies and noodles. The broccoli dish was amazing. The noodles were very good and the tofu was good, but no comparison to the yummy broccoli dish. It is a fun and relaxed place and will definitely be back. Recommend. read more

China Wok - Found good veggie food here. - Chinese Near Me - Llano, Texas

When I entered the restaurant I didn't expect much. But then I ordered the lemon chicken. My mind was blown. I have never seen such a dish before. When I ate it, my eyes opened wide. The lemon sauce was done so unique that I'll never have something like it again ever. I wouldn't mind coming back because it's fun. The cashier is nice and Chinese. My friend's food tasted even better than mine. read more

We love our local Chinese restaurant. Michael is so caring. The food has always been very good. It was a pleasant surprise to move from the city but still find my favorite Chinese dishes. read more

Small family operation. There are no waitstaff, so you order at the counter and they bring it to you. Drinks and utensils are self serve. You even bag up the food yourself if you're taking it to go. The food is really hot and tastes great, however it's not the best I've had by far. The fried rice is more yellow than brown, and has no egg in it. It's not terrible, but not really the fried rice you think of when ordering it. The egg roll was hot, but extremely raw in the middle. I can only hope that none of the ingredients needed to be cooked thoroughly. For the experience that you receive, the food is rather expensive. To get a standard course and rice with a drink, you're going to be looking at $10-$15. But because you have to do everything yourself except for cooking the food, it seems to be on the high side of what I would like to pay. read more

Best Asian food out of any of the smaller towns in the area. Portions are big. Sesame chicken or Moo goo gai pan are the best. They have plenty of selections. Kid and vegetarian friendly. read more

I am very surprised at the 5 star reviews. This Chinese didn't get close to mediocre. Boyfriend had orange chicken & only ate 1/4 of it. Never happened before at any other Chinese restaurant. Egg rolls seemed commercially made & were soggy & cold in the center. I think they were not cooked thoroughly, which killed my appetite, due to fear of illness. $30 for 2 dishes & egg rolls is not an issue to me. Unless it's not edible. read more
