Back at our favorite Chinese restaurant in town. We enjoyed the Cumin Lamb: very well seasoned with perfect level of spice. The Singapore rice noodles was also delicious. Service, as always, was fast, friendly and efficient. read more

Stopped by Street Wok to check out their take on classic Sichuan-style comfort food. The portion sizes are generous and the service was quick, but the flavors were a bit of a mixed bag for a 3-star visit. Here is how the dishes fared: - Mapo Tofu: The sauce had a decent kick and nice chili oil sheen, but it was leaning a bit too heavy on starch and salt without much of that authentic, mouth-numbing Sichuan peppercorn depth (ma). The tofu texture was nice and soft, but overall the flavor profile felt a little flattened. - Crispy Spicy Chicken / Chongqing Chicken: Visually great and seasoned well with chili flakes and sesame seeds, but the chicken pieces were fried a bit too long, leaving them somewhat dry on the inside. A lighter batter and a punchier garlic/chili aromatic oil would make a world of difference here. Overall, it's an okay neighborhood option if you're craving a quick, filling meal, but it lacks the bold, vibrant spices you'd hope for from this style of cuisine. read more

Street Wok has become my favorite Chinese restaurant in the Portland Area. There is one huge reason, they use significantly less oil in their dishes but still use quality ingredients where the flavor stands out without the oil. Typically at most Chinese restaurants, especially fried dishes, you'll see a pool of oil at the bottom of the dish. This is not the case here, and their sauces also keep their oil usage to the minimum. The food doesn't feel as heavy, and they nail most of their Szechuan flavors well. Their service is always fast and friendly. There is a gentleman in glasses that is always happy to serve and answer your questions. He is always happy to pack your food for you to go if you have leftovers as well, which is a lovely gesture. They have very cute decorations inside, from lucky cats with fortune cookies in their mouths, or a painted wall with a Panda cooking delicious food. I'd steer clear from their soup dishes, most of them lack flavor. I highly recommend their Chopped Pepper Fish and their Jade Tofu items though. Very flavorful and not very heavy! Plenty of parking is available which is lovely for eating in Portland, do not let this spot be missed if you've never tried it! read more

First time trying sesame beef. Was very yummy and would try again. Had more of an orange flavor to it. Went on a Friday night and was not too busy. They do have some bigger circular tables for large groups which is nice. read more

I had some really tasty Chinese food at Street Wok. We ordered the mala fish soup and the numbing mala spice was on point. We ordered it with no additional requests, but the owner let us know that we could adjust it to be milder or more intense depending on our preference. We also tried the spicy fried chicken. The seasoning was flavorful,l and the chicken was juicy on the inside and crispy on the outside. The bok choy was nicely cooked with the right amount of garlic. The portion sizes were generous for the price. I'm not very good with extremely spicy food, so I ended up drinking a lot of water. The staff kept coming by to refill my glass without me even asking, which I really appreciated. Everyone was very friendly. The restaurant itself is casual, bright, and spacious. read more

Why hasn't this place won an award??! I travel extensively for work and this is the best Chinese food we have eaten as long as I can remember (and I am 50!). We had the spicy combo chow mein and the Mongolian chicken. Amazing! They need to expand beyond Portland. read more

What a delicious lowkey spot! If I wasn't out on a walk, exploring, I would have never run into this place. It's dim sum with flair. I stayed close to closing and the staff were getting ready to have a family meal in the dining room. I thought it spoke volumes to the type of place this was. I'll be back. So far everything we've tried has been flavorful, good portioned, and tasty. I especially love that nothing is too greasy. Great neighborhood spot read more

My family and my clients love this place, they have a very good lamb. Good food. Great service. Highly recommend.

The food was good, but the Kung Pao Prawns were not nearly spicy enough. The eggplant in garlic sauce was delicious.

sesame chicken tastes like orange chicken because they mix orange chicken sauce and general tso's sauce. read more

This place is a neighborhood gem! The staff was so nice. We're visiting from out of town and we were craving steamed fish. They went out of their way to prepare the fish just as we asked for! It was sooo good. We also had the bok Choy and mushrooms and sweet and sour spareribs. All three dishes were so delicious and the portions were very generous! We have enough food for a whole dinner tomorrow! Thank you chef for being so generous and cooking the food we requested! Would highly recommend this place! They have a lot of menu items and everything looks good. The restaurant has round tables for 10 people and smaller tables. Good size restaurant and very clean. Sorry forgot to take pictures! read more

I enjoyed the food at this establishment. I requested to have fried rice without soy sauce and they accommodated my request and cooked it to perfection. I also ordered the Chong qing hot chicken which was not greasy or overpowering with hot peppers. It had the perfect amount of heat. The service was Friendly & speedy as my order was for takeout. Wish I lived in the neighborhood as I'd eat here again. read more

I have been searching for a great Chinese restaurant since I've moved to Portland. This has become a favorite from me. I've tried so many things on this menu and everything is great. The service is a 10/10. My favorite is the shrimp fried rice and spicy beef chow mein. But truly you can't go wrong with anything on the menu. read more

Casual, nicely decorated restaurant with functional, not-fancy tables and chairs. Kind and efficient service. Easy, free parking in the lot in front. The standout was the food! Delicious dishes, each of which had its own flavor profile. We especially enjoyed the perfectly cooked "garlic green bean," the sweet and soft "eggplant in hot garlic sauce," steaming and crunchy "salt and pepper squid," and salty and tangy "chopped pepper hot fish." We asked for everything to be not spicy, and it all came out unique, abundant, expertly cooked, and packed with flavor. I'm glad we have leftovers and definitely recommend eating here. read more

We checked this place out after we saw a review from an IG food influencer named Yvette. We ordered the mala grilled fish, coconut chicken, dry beef pot, combination chow mein, egg yolk shrimp, and the Chong qing chicken. Overall, the service was amazing but unfortunately, the food lacked flavor, was under seasoned and had no wok hei. When comparing this restaurant to Sichuan city on 82nd in Happy Valley, I would go to Sichuan City for deeper flavor. read more

This is my second time here after not having the best food experience the first time. I called ahead and placed my to go order to be ready a hour after my called. I arrived a few minutes early and was told it wasn't ready yet. I waited 15 - 20 minutes before my food came out. The restaurant was not busy with only 4 tables being occupied. The decorations and ambiance is mixed matched and fairly sparse. The strengths of this meal was the Mongolian beef and orange chicken. The Mongolian beef was tender and had great spice. The orange chicken had great flavor and tasty sauce. The fried rice was really plain and didn't have much flavor. The chow mein was also pretty bland. The fried cooked string beans and spring rolls were both pretty good. I might come back for a few of their items but as a whole, probably not. read more

Street Wok - Take out ;) - Szechuan Near Me - Portland, Oregon

Ordered for take out. This was our first time trying. Ordered the: potstickers, spring roll, sesame chicken, pork fried rice, beef chow men, crab puff, hot and spicy soup, and the honey walnut prawns. Overall good portions, reasonable price. Everything was tasty, but nothing was "knock your socks off." Potstickers/springroll/crab puffs weren't as "crispy" as you would expect perhaps because we ordered to go! There are Chinese restaurants we like better in Portland which we will likely go back to - but I would consider given Street Wok a try again. read more

Wow great spot for lunch! Lunch menu runs til 3 pm and was a fantastic deal. Each meal comes with soup and rice and enough entree to gorge yourself and still have some leftovers. The tofu lunch special dishes were amazing. We got the king pao tofu and Sichuan tofu. Perfectly crispy tofu with a soft interior. Best tofu I've had in years. Plus the place was very clean and has air conditioning! If I lived closer I'd be there all the time read more

Came by in the middle of the day to order takeout, so obviously they were not too busy inside. It's a one room layout -- pleasant enough-- and the owners were super friendly, offering up big dine-in menus for us to look over while we ordered. We went with the Kung Pao Tofu, a healthy portion of tofu, peppers and peanuts, all doused in a spiced sauce with a good back heat. Not the cheapest Chinese food around, and the menu is a bit smaller than the usual offerings, but we both agreed the tofu was excellent, and the portion size was more than enough for us both. read more

Sorry to say that I was disappointed with the meal. We ordered the fried rice, ma po tofu, king pao chicken and hot and sour soup. The fried rice and ma po tofu were decent. But the hot and sour soup might have been the worst we've ever had. The soup literally tasted like a mixture of water, soy sauce and a dash of vinegar. There was no pepper and no heat. And the Kung Pao chicken was boring and lacked any spice. Barely any chicken, all onion and peppers. And for the chicken, I get that velvetting is a cooking technique to keep it moist, but it was way too much. I cant say I've ever had chicken with the kind of texture before. Not in a good way. It was sort of slippery and too soft. Overall, I would not recommend or go back. read more

This is my first time at Street Wok. My friend Paulo has been following the Yelp reviews and said we have to go here. I was delightfully surprised at how fresh and authentic the food is here. We ordered Paulo's favorites: Kung Pao Chicken and Dry Cooked String Beans I asked them if they could add pork to the string beans. They were accommodating (with an up charge for the added pork) The veggie menu is extensive including American favorites including Broccoli String Beans, Eggplants and Tofu. They also have Chinese Choy Sum. The Dry Cooked String Beans were crisp and flavorful, especially with the added pork. The Kung Po Chicken was delightful with super fresh crisp vegetables and ample sized chunks of Chicken. The sauce was perfect and the peanuts too. We're definitely coming back. read more

Generous servings for the price, very tasty, nice Szechuan tingle of spice. You can't go wrong here.

American Chinese staples like General Tao's and Orange Chicken are becoming increasingly difficult to find. The emergence of traditional and regional Chinese food in Portland is a welcome change but sometimes you just want the food you grew up eating. Street Wok is the perfect blend, serving up Sichuan dishes alongside Chinese American dishes with their own subtle takes. What emerges is not only what Americans expect from a Chinese restaurant but also dishes that are a welcome diversion. Hot pot, mapo tofu are found here too. Service was a little rough because only one lady working but she was very pleasant and accommodating. We were quite happy with our dishes and will be back for more. read more

Stopped in here before the Blazer game. So happy we did. I ordered the Mongolian chicken, and my husband ordered the spicy garlic eggplant. Super nice and friendly service. I ordered my chicken as spicy as you can get it. It came out fairly fast... within ten minutes. It was huge. Like shocking huge. Way too much food for what they're charging. We could have easily shared. It wasn't spicy, at all, but the flavor was amazing!! I would do get it again. My husband had some as well and enjoyed it. His eggplant came out about ten minutes after mine. Well worth the wait. It was also delicious. We will come back. This place is great. You could easily split a plate of food with the amount you get! read more

This will be our #1 to go option going forward. read more

So glad that we have decided to come over and give this place a try. The place is clean and very spacious. The food not only tasty, authentic and the potion is large. All the dishes can test the dragon breath. The eggplants cooked just right. Not completely soft. The tofu is moist and juicy inside. The hot boiled fish packed with lots of flavor and chunks of fish inside gives you the satisfaction. The bottom of the bowl has mushroom and napa cabbage as well. The owner recommended us also try Sichuan City, his other restaurant. read more

Out of all the Chinese restaurants I've been to in the Portland and surrounding areas, I have to say Street Wok is the best. I've come here on a number of occasions, and the food here never disappoints. My go to's are as follows Garlic fried rice-- I usually don't order fried rice because I don't think it's worth the price, but wow! The garlic fried rice here is so good. If you like garlic, this is the way to go. None of the artificial garlic, we are talking about real garlic. This fried rice is fragrant and exudes with flavor! Chongqing chicken-- the chicken is spicy, but I like that there is a slight sweetness to it. I personally like spicy food, so if you don't like spicy this may not be the right dish for you. Mapo tofu-- I love mapo tofu! I like that the mapo tofu here is spicy but not so numbing where you can't enjoy the taste. Again, I like spicy, and this dish is the perfect amount of spice for me. Generous amounts of cubed tofu Spicy chow mein-- yum!!! The noodles are not too thick but also not too thin. It has a nice texture where there's a nice bite to it. I like that it isn't too greasy, and can be eaten alone or with other dishes I've tried a number of dishes on the menu, and honestly you really cannot go wrong. read more

The shrimp was NOT cleaned. Not much worse when you go to take your first bite of food and the poop sack is still in the shrimp. Trying to give the benefit of the doubt that just one got missed, even though now I'm turned off from eating, but came to find that none of the shrimp in the combo fried rice had been cleaned. So gross. The rest of our dishes (mushroom chicken, broccoli beef, beef chow mein) were very bland, almost as if seasoning was forgotten altogether. What a disappointing meal. We will not try them again. read more

I am not a big Asian food fan. I don't dislike the flavors; I prefer other food styles. My mother, who lives with us, LOVES pan-Asia food. She is crazy about Thai, Cantonese, Szechuan, and Vietnamese. It is because of her obsession that we order a lot of take-away Chinese food. Street Wok delivers. The food is predictable and dependable. The flavors are "traditional Szechuan" (as per my mother). What I like most is how friendly the staff at the restaurant are, kind, attentive and easy going. Yes, it is in a strip mall location off MacAdam, but no - it is not strip mall food. Give it a try. Your Chinese food-loving mother will love it. Trust me :-) read more

Actually a 4.5 because sometimes service slow, sometimes not, some things we've gotten have been too greasy, but lately all has been excellent. We usually share veggie fried rice and dry string beans--filling, just the right amount of oil and spice. Eggplant dish ordered long ago was too greasy. Reasonably priced. read more

Came to eat on a Sunday afternoon and it wasn't busy at all! We were surprised because we saw this place had a lot of 5 star reviews / good reviews in general. We sat down by the window and we were greeted immediately by our server. We ordered the Mongolian beef and general tso chicken. Note, soup and rice comes with the meal during lunch Monday - Friday. Since it was Sunday we ordered rice in addition, which was only 1.50 per cup. The Mongolian beef and general tso chicken was so good. Definitely coming back to try more! I read some reviews on Yelp and some said the general tso chicken was chewy, I didn't experience this. Mine was crispy :) read more
