    The food is amazing and staff are very attentive with a wide variety of food options. Very clean and has a full bar

    Egg Rolls

    Delicious fresh Chinese food. Egg rolls, chicken fried rice, Mongolian beef and Orange chicken were all great choices. The food was hot, fresh and portions were large. Service was very good and restaurant is cozy.

    I will admit that I am a frequent user of Yelp, but rarely a reviewer. Today I was moved to put the time and effort into a review due the travesty that was our delivery order from Little Wok. We live in Evanston and have a plethora of wonderful Asian restaurants to choose from. Today we decided to take a break from our usuals and try this place. What should have given me caution right away was the vastness of their menu. They have Chinese dishes, Thai, and many traditional Japanese dishes, in addition to a full sushi menu. That's a lot to take on. I decided to try a bit from all three styles. Here is the rundown: 1. Shrimp Tempura - the shrimp was overly fried and at the same time, greasy. The zucchini it came with was as hard as a hockey puck. I could hit it on my table and hear it reverberate. 2. Teriyaki Chicken Baked Rice - this had ZERO teriyaki taste. Teriyaki has some sweetness, but this has absolutely none. It did taste vaguely of a garlic sauce. The chicken was dry. Very disappointing. 3. Tom Kha soup - right away I knew we were in trouble, as the color was blindingly white. It was pure coconut milk that was drowned in spice from those little red Thai peppers. 9/10 on spice. Inedible. 4. Potstickers. These were mostly sticky dough with a little meat inside. 5. Szechuan Wontons - these were absolutely saturated with Szechuan peppercorns, to where one bite annihilated your mouth with numbing spice. Very off-putting and incredibly dry at the same time. 6. Salmon Nigiri. We ordered a couple of pieces of salmon for my daughter. It looked almost gray. Decided not to risk tasting it after everything else. We called the restaurant after receiving our order to detail these issues. The person who answered said the manager was not in and that it's "all a matter of taste". And that he had never received any complaints about these dishes. I am providing some pictures of what we received. We will never patronize Little Wok again. Look

    I haven't been here in a long time and decided to go today. I also ordered the Tom Yum seafood soup that was extremely spicy and I asked for less spicy and that didn't happen. I also ordered the Tofu pad see ew and found a small sharp bone in it. Wow! Reason to cook at home. You all need to do better if you expect people to still patronize your business. I'm done and over them. Service is not what it used to be. Go elsewhere.

    Sesame chicken
    Stephanie L.

    Little Wok is a little gem... My food is always fresh whether I eat in or order delivery. My go to is always the sesame chicken with combination fried rice! Delicious every single time! Their egg rolls are pretty good as well, not to greasy. I am a creature of habit and I tend to only stick to what I like, but they have an extensive menu so I plan on being adventurous and trying new things off the menu. Also pictured is the basil chicken which my friend had.

    I'm obsessed with this place. Every time I get something it becomes my new favorite. They're super low priced for the large portions and delicious food. Also, every time I've gotten delivery, they arrive way before the scheduled time!

    Love the food. Anyplace that uses Chinese broccoli is usually a winner. Very tasty with decent quality protein.

    Getting close to living in the area for 30 years and had not been back to Kuni's until recently…read more Just had forgotten (unless things really changed) how cozy having a place this close to home is. Good wide menu with items that you don't find at your mainstream japanese restaurant. More like old school Chicago Japanese. (Thinking a blend here of old Ginza and maybe some parts Sunshine.) Maybe only with the departure of those favorites we appreciate more what has stayed on. Appetizer selection is long enough to just get small plates to share. Notables: - ebi snijo (homemade shrimp ball) - hamachi jaw (if you haven't had it) - hirame no cha soba age (fried green tea noodles and whitefish rolled with seaweed) - evokes the old Ginza restaurant for me - octopus sunomono Even after three recent visits without repeat apps, there are still more we haven't had elsewhere to try. Part of the reason for that is - we get entrees too. We've been happy with: - chirashi (curious how the sashimi D differs) - Salmon Bento (D) - so many different things fun to share! - Kuni's Special - gomaee and mixed seafood sunomono, then our choice of sashimi followed by saba - nabe yaki udon is reasonable here at $13 with two tempura shrimp Know there's lots of reviews here, but as long as there is room on weekends for us we're happy to share!

Unfortunately by the time we decided on a restaurant & I arrived there it was already 12:50. I had a doctor appointment in Glenview @ 1:50 so we really didn't have much time. I really liked what I saw at this restaurant. What I saw was large dining space w/high ceilings w/stamped patterned copper ceilings and a very nice dining area w/a cool Asian theme w/very nice Asian wall murals & a great menu selection. I ended up ordering the black garlic ramen which had an excellent rich pork broth with soy base, grilled pork, bamboo shoots, sprouts, green onions, marinated egg, house-made black garlic oil and seaweed. The flavor of this broth was outstanding. The portion size was also generous. My sister ordered some fried oysters & tea. What I ordered I really enjoyed but I was really rushed because of my doctor appointment. HRS has an AYCE for $23.95 for sushi & ramen M-F from 11am - 3pm. The menu selection looks awesome .

There was a live saxophone player and I loved the live flowers they had. Our waiter was extremely nice and took the time to explain the menu as well as their customer favorites. I order a Thai iced tea which wasn't bad but I prefer mine a little thicker and sweeter. It came in a thin tall glass which in theory was not a lot of drink. To start we order the chicken appetizer and fried beef on rice to share and unfortunately I did not snap a pic but these were listed under apps or shareables but the portions were extremely small. As our mains came I noticed that they were also small and each were around $20-$30 per plate. Not a bad thing if you don't eat much but I'm a big bang for buck type of gal. My family came to share and this place is a more fine dining thai restaurant which could explain the smaller portions. We ordered the pad Thai which was alright in my opinion I expected a little more flavor, the aubergine which was tossed vegetables as recommended by our waiter which was also ok not much flavor but beautiful plating though, and the coconut curry which was by far my favorite. If I were to come back here I would order that again, it was a nice light yet complex flavor profile which made me savor every bite. Overall good place for an upbeat fancier meal and I highly recommend the coconut curry braised chicken if you visit. Little pricey but that's just my opinion let me know what you guys think if you visit! Oh and they also give your receipt in a boat which they spin and leave a thank you card once you paid which was really cute.

Mostly it focuses on Thai such as noodles and stuff with coconut. The prices aren't bad for the usually great quality. At lunch things are a bit cheaper. It's the main reason we came at this time. There's also plenty of good vegan and vegetarian choices and lots of spicy stuff or whatever. It's about $12 for a cocktail. There's a good amount of Asian inspired ones. Among these is the Bangkok Mule. This was made with kaffir lime infused vodka. Crisp and refreshing. The food is kind of pricey, which is the only bad thing. It's about $16 for an entree. The vegetarian choices include the Crispy Rice With Iceberg Wedge. A lame name but it was good. This had chili lime dressing, ginger, peanuts, shallots, tofu noodles, and white jelly mushrooms. Good just slightly Americanized Thai food. It's pretty authentic to be honest. The lunch is a good time to come and try some of the recently brought back menu, which has plenty of options for meat eaters, as well as vegans and vegetarians.
