On a departing customer's recommendation: "Oh yeah - it's extremely good!", I ventured in - as indicated elsewhere the elderly cashier wasn't too friendly. However, $15 and 10 minutes later I had a delicious vegetable stirfry - probably the best I've had in LA. The art on the wall evokes the ambience of a pharmaceutical discount center. The overall feel is fever dream. Tasty. read more

My go to spot for Chinese food. It is the best place in Inglewood in the surrounding area that you will ever get the top notch Chinese food and service from the owner and his wife. The owner and his wife are so nice kind and respectful to everyone that comes in. Very clean atmosphere as well read more

I won't come back nice owner my wonton soup wasn't good at all! I also had Kung pao beef wasn't good the owners only work there u can't dine in! Have to take food to go and the husband is the cook had the Thai tea wasn't good either! Plenty of parking. But that's it read more

Food is amazing, priced pretty high, sometimes they answer the phone if you call ahead, sometimes they don't. If you're lucky enough to get them to answer that's the best and order the house fried rice!! Even add some hot link if you're feeling frisky!! read more

Delicious they got it, the old school tastes not fast food! Nice portion several options for vegans too! read more

My favorite go to for comforting, healthier, flavorful, Chinese cuisine. Everything I've had here tastes soulful, whole, and fresh like homemade. Today I wanted a healthier option for dinner and as usual I'm never disappointed. The seasonal mix stir fry was piping hot freshly made and perfectly seasoned! they were cooked but still had slight crunch and substance. The mixed grains were a perfect match for these. The egg rolls are my guilty pleasure, so crispity (yes crisp-ity spellchecker) crunchy and comforting Mmmmm good. I had plenty left overs for tomorrow's lunch! I usually order by phone for pick up, but today I just walked in and ordered and in less than ten minutes I was walking out with my order. Sorry no pic of the Thai Tea, I slurped it down while waiting and reading the bio of the celebrity patrons on the wall. Anybody heard of Lil Litty? Anyway, ORDER from here when you want good, wholesome, flavor and comfort Chinese flair. read more

This is my favorite place to get lunch around the neighborhood I work in. The couple that run this restaurant are very nice people and the food is great. They have a lot of variations of fried rice which I love to order, the smoked salmon fried rice is my favorite. They also make Thai iced tea and other drinks. read more

Excellent food and fantastic service. Everything I've had there is not a disappointment. I highly recommend.

Absolutely love this place. I've never had anything gross from this place. The menu is like no other Chinese restaurant. It's like Chinese food infused with the hood and I absolutely love it. Thai tea be soooooooo delicious. My favorite item on the menus is Jerk Chicken Fried rice read more

Wok On The Wild Side - Jerk chicken fried rice - Chinese Near Me - Inglewood, California

Back then in like 2013/14 this place was good and fresh , it's always been over priced but it was KIND OF WORTH it back then even tho the woman taking orders came off very rude. Fast forward to 2024 ... service is still bad, they are still way too over priced $8 to add a meat is crazy. Not only that the fried rice was old ! Visibly and it taste old. $27 down the drain I will not be returning . It taste like they mixed old with new. read more

Wok On The Wild Side - $27 shrimp fried rice with links added - Chinese Near Me - Inglewood, California

I really don't understand the bad reviews. We came in around 7:45 given the hours said they were open until 9. When we entered she said they would be closing at 8, but would still serve us. Given this is a local spot, not surprising they would close early if it's slow (just keep this in mind when ordering!) They had our to-go order ready in like 15, and everything was AMAZING!! The kung pao chicken and the fried rice were the highlights. Definitely worth checking out! read more

I would have given a higher rating except the portions are small and the prices are high. An older couple, likely owners, prepare orders fresh so have your patience on for a little extra wait. Also may require a 'culture' acceptance when it comes to customer service. Portion size stands out the most. read more

I love this place!!! Their food is so good. When I go I get the shrimp fried rice, the chicken chow mein and the veggie eggs rolls. So good! It's a couple who owns it the place. The lady always takes my phone order. She's nice but sometimes in a rush since she's doing it alone. The food is made when you order it so it's always fresh. The platters of food is enough to share. The inside of the business is dim and needs an upgrade, so not the best vibe but the food is delicious. 10/10 -food 8/10 - service read more

Excellent food, quality ingredients that are very tasty. Pretty quick service as well. It is a bit in the pricey side but again it is quality ingredients read more

Wok On The Wild Side - I've been coming to this location for over 10 years. The owners are so kind. The food is always delicious. - Chinese Near Me - Inglewood, California

The food here is pretty decent but considering the price It's hard to order for yourself or for a family. Almost every dish costs at least $15.00 including soup! When I go to a Chinese restaurant I like to order a variety of items of items but this place makes it hard as 4 dishes can easily cost upwards of $80 I got the broccoli shrimp and it had a decent flavor however I was not impressed as the shrimp were very small ( (size of a nickel)) and overcooked. I have gotten bigger shrimp from other places at a lower cost. I also was not impressed because they gave me a ton of broccoli with about 10-15 small shrimp This dish was not worth $15.95 for me I also Tried the beef and broccoli and while they also gave a lot of broccoli on this dish this one actually a decent amount of beef.. however i wasnt a big fan of the texture! Overall I would eat here if someone else paid but I wont personally be speeding my hard earned money here until the prices decrease read more

Everything about their food is just delicious! Prices are great, serving sizes are great, and service is great!

Tried this place on a recommendation.... The food is so fresh. The egg rolls are crispy and delicious. The place is still set up like covid times. So it's to go orders. Everything I've gotten was delicious. The shrimp fried rice is on point. A must try!! read more

Spicy chicken wings are disgusting and are party wings with some weird flavor.. these were horrible.. Their chow Mein is decent read more

Lovely married couple good food garlic string beans are a favorite. Good way to get your veggies. Fried rice yummy shrimp, salmon fried rice excellent. Ty tea excellent. read more

This place is a waste of your hard earned money. This place is overpriced, one bite of the shrimp I spit it out instantly. 20 dollars for dry old jerk chicken rice is ridiculous. Please, please, please don't waste your money and don't risk your health. read more

My favorite Chinese food place! Big portions and even bigger flavor. My go toos is the chicken and broccoli, thai fried rice, and jerk chow main. read more

WOTWS increases their prices damn near every other month! However, I do appreciate when the Husband cooks because he cooks well. The wife and her lousy ass attitude stopped me from spending my money here years ago. She would take your order over the phone and give you a pick up time when it would be ready, but when you came to pick it up after waiting, it would not be ready because their policy was to cook your food after you paid! Giving a false sense of gratification to customers when they come to get their food let me know they don't value their customers time. Be upfront about the payment policy so people will pay and wait instead of taking orders over the phone only to waste their time 2 hours later. read more

So everything is Covid safe here. The distance between guest and no tables out right now to dine in. But the business is thriving. Thank God!!! My mother has been shut in for 12 months and this was her first Take Out" request. And I gotta please the queen, of course. Things are a little more pricier than pre-shut down but the servings are ginormous! I ordered the House Special Chow Mein - and Shrimp Fried. I only have the shrimp fried rice this morning as u can see in the photos below. I added it to my breakfast is am. Delicious all over again. Please support this business. I will try to keep more businesses in mind as things open up more and more. Enjoy the pictures and the pic of my queen mom. Remember: Don't Yelp only when bad things happen. read more

The food is good but the price makes it a once a month meal I like that they have a variety on the menu

The FOOOOOOOD! someone had an idea to mix Chinese food and Soul Food and Wok On The Wild Side was born. Stir fried Collard Green rice?!! The customer service is good too. read more

The food is delicious and the service is great! I found my new favorite Chinese food spot for sure!

Too expensive for just OK food. It's just not enough to bring me back. Wish they would do something to step it up. read more

Awesome! Clean taste! Very tasty!! My favorite is the fact that the owner grows her own veggies.

It was definitely wild getting Chinese food here, the food were ok, the portions were also ok, but wow I never had to pay this much for Chinese takeout, $3.50 extra if I want brown rice, then my total came out to almost $50 for like fried rice and sautéed veggies, yikes To blame this on the rising of cost, possibly, but it could be the restaurant itself. I read a few reviews saying the lady was rude and moody depends, but so far I think I got on her good side, she gave me plenty of foods, but the price was total gnarly lol. Also it's funny when the sign said no MSG cook to order, but I bet there was MSG involved, I got super thirsty after, and the tip of my tongue was extremely numbed, maybe I need to tell her next time to ease up on the salt. Well, better come hungry next time I was so bummed out they didn't have the garlic string beans available at the time of my visit. But definitely something they cook with soul in the hood right here. Second time I was told I was the only Asian customer lol, based on the look of it, most customers came eat here were African American, they got a wall of famous people on their wall including Coolio yep. No seats inside, so you have to take your food somewhere to eat, or eat in the car if you were in a hurry read more

First time trying this location and I must say I will never be back. The customer service was awful. I asked for extra soy sauce the lady literally gave me two packets. I order the chicken and broccoli with rice ( which had no flavor what so ever ) and Snapple and my total was over $13. I asked how to my total get to $13+ when I ordered a lunch special, she replied they charge $1 for using debit cards smh. I have picture as well so you can see how bland their food is. You can imagine they lack of taste and flavor read more

Wok On The Wild Side - Chicken & broccoli with white rice - Chinese Near Me - Inglewood, California

Although I have had their food and it is tasty, I rarely visited because 1. The lady that takes the orders is curt and not very sociable 2. The prices are crazy! I know they are in Inglewood but sheeesh! 3. The parking lot is crazy with rare instances of finding a spot. BUT Today, i attempted to order here and when I asked a question about if they had a food item, the woman on the phone said to me "why dont you look at the menu on yelp, I posted it on there so you can see what you like." Sadly, I did look at the menu, I was driving trying to make the order to save time and forgot if i saw it or not... But who cares! If its my first time sell me on that ONE menu item, not refer me to yelp! read more

I popped in this little Chinese restaurant that I have passed many times and wondered why it is so busy. Well, I got my answer. This place is one of those " HIDEN GEMS"! I ordered the Fried Jumbo Shrimp and Garlic Green Bean and was served one of the most delicious and perfectly cooked Chinese to go meals I have ever eaten. The shrimp was perfectly cooked and breaded. The Green Beans were covered in a exceptionally well homemade garlic sauce. I have owned a restaurant and understand the balance of flavors in a good sauce but this one is unforgettable. This little spot is worth every penny you spend as they clearly go the extra mile to differentiate themselves from the typical " Chinese to-go". If that's not enough, the parking situation is super easy making my choice to go back when craving Chinese a very easy decision. read more

Took my coworker there and now she wants it all the time. The facts that it's fresh and ready when on time is a plus. I get the same thing all the time combination rice spicy or chicken and broccoli spicy cause that's my favorite I always say I'm gonna get something different but I don't. read more

It was trash from beginning to end... 1. Person up front had waaay too much attitude. 2. Had to instruct her not to rush me. 3. Shrimp fried rice was T.R.A.S.H. Not even water could wash the days old and under cooked rice from my teeth. Four old Shrimp. Trash. Trash. Trash. NEVER AGAIN! If you eat there, you are sure to take a wok on the wild and definitely on the wrong side! If I could have given ZERO stars, I would have! read more

I will never patronize this place again. The cashier that I think may be the owner has a nasty attitude and rude. When I walked in, she threw her hand up at me as if she can wait. It wasn't a pleasant greeting. I should have walked back out the door then. I walked to the counter and placed my order for Jumbo Shrimp fried rice and a lunch special or broccoli shrimp. She slammed the pen and receipt down. But never offered a receipt. When my food was ready, I asked for a receipt. She argued that she couldn't give me one buy yet I paid with my debit card. She said I can write u a receipt. It was for a price of $26 not the $28 I had paid. It wasn't a detailed receipt at all, just the price. I get home nearly 20 minutes away, only to see my order wasn't correct. I received the broccoli shrimp but was given fried shrimp instead of my jumbo shrimp fried rice. I called in about the mistake. Soon as she answered the phone and heard my complaint, she began raising her voice, telling me that's what I ordered. I said ma'am I did not. She went back and forth with me and said bring the fried shrimp back if I want the fried rice and I have to pay the difference. No problem but at this point, I don't want anyone with this demeanor cooking, serving or overseeing a meal for me. So I already knew I didn't want my order. When I walked in she was pissed and handed me the $26. Fine, but ma'am u didn't charge my card $26. She began to raise her voice and argue with me again. With me having no receipt but the 1 she wrote out. I had to open my phone and she her my bank account of what she charged me. By now, she was livid. She acted as if she could see the charge because she was looking at all my other transactions. So by now, she goes thru her spindle of receipts and found mine. Looking surprised, never apologizing because she seen the mistake and I was overcharged from what she gave me. She says in a rude tone. I will just cancel and reverse your charge. I said and don't forget your food, it's right there on the counter. Have a nice day. read more
