    My husband and I had been waiting for Wukong to open, after Koko's had closed. We charge our car at the Electrify America station in the same parking lot, so it's always exciting when a new place opens up. We stopped in just a few days after Wukong opened, and even being a new business - they were on point! The restaurant was decorated very nicely, everything was very clean and inviting, and the menu looked incredible! The server that we ordered from and chatted with was so nice and kind, wanting to make sure to explain everything we were ordering and what came with it, etc. She also came over to ask how everything was after we got our food and had eaten for a while, and was very interested to make sure everything came out perfectly. Great service. To start, we tried the Crab Rangoon, which were super creamy and flavorful. I hate when rangoons are chunky and fluffy inside, making it sort of dry. There was none of that here! Just a really good, high quality version, which isn't easy to do. We tried two entrees - the hibachi and the Malatang soup. Both come with different proteins you can choose, and both were fantastic! For the Malatang, we ordered the Hot and Sour with fatty beef. The broth was SO delicious and full of flavor. It definitely had a bit of heat, but only for a twang of flavor, not to just be hot for the sake of being hot. The meat, veggies, and noodles all worked so well together - it was like heaven in a bowl. The hibachi we ordered was the Steak and Chicken. It came out full of the proteins in a tasty hibachi marinade, along with some grilled veggies, also in the same sauce, and a side of brown rice (that was great when mixed in with the veggies and meats!) The hibachi also came with a side of Yum Yum sauce like you see at the tableside hibachi experiences, but you could have it on the side and dip it yourself here, which I liked! For Wukong only being open a few weeks, they have definitely already impressed me a ton, and I will for sure be back many times. Definitely check them out next time you're in the area. Or just make the drive out there - you won't regret it!

    ABSOLUTELY, THE BEST ASIAN RESTAURANT IN THE METRO AREA! 1st time was take out for hubby and I. The second time (2 days later), went in with the family! Truly, blown away with yummy and the service is outstanding! I would post more pics but I ate it so fast ... I forgot to take one until it was nearly gone. The portions are large and I still smash it within a small amount of time! I seriously, put the fork down! We plan to go back tonight or tomorrow!

    Yesterday, my family and I ventured out west and were in the the mood for Chinese. We found a delightful Chinese restaurant right by the Super Target right off 177th and Center WuKongs Asian Restaurant It was amazing!! They specialize in their version of a Chinese Hot Pot, the Malatang I ordered that. I picked 3 types of meat and combined it with 3 vegetables. I asked for a spice heat level of 3. It is served in a rich broth. My daughter ordered the Orange Chicken which was pretty tasty. We had eggs and crab Rangoon to start and they even had chicken nuggets for my less adventurous granddaughter Vickie was our waitress and she was amazing and very informative She was delightful. Thank you WuKongs for the delicious meal and great service We will be back

    Pork bone broth malatang

    I saw this place opened up recently so we decided to give it a try. I've never had malatang, or cooked hotpot, before. It's like regular hotpot except you choose the toppings and soup base and they'll prepare it for you. I ordered the pork bone broth malatang, which was one of their new broths they just recently added. It was pretty good, but a little bland for my liking so I added some chili oil. The beef and toppings were cooked perfectly and everything was served pretty quickly! Overall, everything was pretty good and I would come back.

    Really quite disappointed. I asked for no onions and I got a TON of them. And I think in the chicken meal I got, there was a dozen or so cubes of chicken. I was planning to go to Panera, but the line was long and I thought I'd try a local place to gives some business. The food tasted good, but in my opinion. Not worth $18 for this and the Gyoza. I probably won't go back. If I wasn't back at work, I'd likely take it back.

    A new restaurant that took over for Koko's Korean Chicken, and previously 5 Spice restaurant. You can order at the counter or use the self kiosks on the side of the wall. I ordered the Hibachi Chicken and Steak combination. A salad is delivered in a plastic container with salad dressing. The main entrée comes later, already in a takeout container. The steak and chicken lacked some robusto flavor, even though dipping sauce is included. Overall, service is very good and the restaurant is well maintained. 4 stars for the service aspect, with the combination plates needed a bit more flavor.

    Crab Rangoon
    Johan J.

    New Restaurant and it did not disappoint. The crab Rangoon's are very good they did not skimp on the filling and they have a nice crisp to them. The yogurt drink was very refreshing and the hibachi was a good portion. Service is very friendly and you can also order through a kiosk will be coming back

    First time here and absolutely delicious! Can't wait to go back again. Love the way it looks inside and the vibe is amazing. Thank you to the owners for wonderful hospitality and service. :).

    Found this place online. What a great place!!! Super clean! Everyone is so nice and like. The egg roles are amazing!! Totally homemade. The crab Rangoon's are filled to the max. Both the egg rolls and Rangoons are not oily. The chicken and steak hibachi was delicious and well seasoned. Portions are great! A must try for those in the Omaha area

    I typically don't leave reviews but Wukong was a unique find with such lovely staff. I've never tried Malatang before but I wanted to do something new. It's sort of like hot pot because of how much flavor there is but instead it comes separately and I got to choose three meats and three non-meats from the list. I got the hot and sour and all the ingredients came together in the bowl. I was worried they would be soggy but they were actually the perfect texture. I'll be coming back here in the future, I definitely recommend it.

    Wave Bistro has been around for quite some time, and it feels a little bit dated in the decor, but…read morethe food is pretty good and the service is excellent. My husband and I have eaten there a few times, and everyone we've interacted with was pleasant, including the woman we chatted with last time we were there who I assume was the owner. She took great pride in the establishment and art that was featured inside. The dated decor I mentioned is the dim lightning, white tablecloths, and the 70s looking bar in the corner. Now aside from the Goodfellas vibes, the food was also a tiny bit "vintage" feeling but still tasty. We have had a few starters, like the house Garden Salad which was a sight to behold. Little cherry tomatoes resting atop sliced cucumbers around a big lump of salad and their honey carrot dressing. Taste was great, but the food art was a little over the top. We've also also grabbed the Firecracker Shrimp, which are pretty good - little fried shrimp in a fried wonton wrapper, and set atop a plate of the firecracker spiced ginger sauce (a LOT of the sauce). Entree-wise, my husband and I have had the Cashew Crusted Salmon and the Teriyaki Chicken. Both were cooked well and had great sauces with them, but again - both had pretty "dated" plating styles when we've ordered these. We were at Wave Bistro for a special occasion last time we went, so we did also share two desserts. The Tiramisu and Chocolate Cream Cake were both decadent and something to come back for. Very sweet, though, with lots of chocolate and sauces, so these have to be a once in a while treat. I know I keep harping on the dated style of the food and interior, but the food tastes have always been great, so I can look past these types of things for the love of the food. Overall, I would say Wave Bistro is a nice, sort of old-school style eatery that would be good every once in a while for the great service and hearty food.

    Their Wonton Soup with chicken, shrimp and veggies is always the best in town!…read more I wanted to try something different so I ordered the spiced seafood dynamite letting the waiter know I had a dairy and butter intolerance. He assured me this meal would be OK for me to eat. When I was served, it looked creamy, but he said it was egg whites with olive oil making up the Aioli sauce, so I dug in! It certainly was tasty, but half way thru I felt uncertain about the ingredients. It was not a good experience once I got home. I knew it did not agree with my stomach. Such a shame. They do have some of my favorite meals here so I will go back and stick with what I know!!

    SO GOOD! The interior is a vibe. You actually order at the counter and they bring the food out to…read moreyour table which is a little unexpected. Service was still great though! We had someone bring us refills, to-go boxes, and take plates without us having to ask. I got a bowl with steak, rice, and veggies and it was delicious! The sauce they put on it is really good. Very flavorful veggies as well. Really couldn't have been any better. I also got a side of hummus with the chips. The meal also comes with a complimentary pita bread so I was able to try both which was nice. The side of hummus is plenty big so I actually took most of it home with me. No complaints! I will have to be back to try more menu items.

    I got the Hummus Stacked Bowl to go. So much hummus on the bottom it was like hummus soup...and…read morethat would typically be fine, except the hummus was just "ok." It was definitely on the thin side and there were less roasted veggies (a piece of cauliflower and mostly zucchini with essentially no flavor of their own) than I anticipated there would be. I was thinking that the lamb would be real lamb steak chunks since it was pricer than the beef option, but it was gyro meat texture. Granted, the gyro was DELICIOUS. The best bite of the bowl, probably the best gyro meat I've had. I thought there would be a decent amount of fresh tomatoes on top, but no dice. I think I maybe got four cherry tomatoes halves. The pita was good enough, unremarkable. I've eaten a decent amount of Mediterranean food and worked at a Greek restaurant for three years, and this meal didn't live up to my expectations. With the to-go plating, the meat was on one side and hummus and veggies were on the other side of a partitioned container. It just felt weird. They couldn't stock a to-go bowl large enough to contain a bowl? I'd pass on this meal.
