Star Wok - Waterloo, Ontario

Got the lunch special chicken lo mein. If I were to say they packed this full it would be an understatement. I opened it up and there was about an inch of food that took the shape of the lid and was raised above the bottom part of the container. ... There are small pieces of chicken in the rice that are a very pleasant surprise. There are significantly larger pieces of chicken with sauce that is primarily mixed in with the lo mein. Everything is packed with flavour. The chicken in the rice could use a bit more seasonings but if you eat it with the rice it’s a very good mix of a bite. A lot of food for one person and will most definitely have leftovers for a lunch for another day and maybe supper too. Read more

They put a lot of care in the take out packaging and presentation of the food. Fast service and fast made food with decent prices and good portions. Got the lemon chicken combo platter and was happy with the taste and how they neatly packed everything. The lemon chicken was ... moist with the breading being nice and crunchy, it was even nicely sliced up! Great take out place! Read more

My friend and I got take out from this place. We were looking for Chinese comfort food but everything was so bland. My shrimp egg noodles tasted so bad (like they only had salt??) that I had to cook them some more with actual spices. The sweet and sour breaded ... chicken tasted off and my friend had to spit it out because she chewed on something weird. Don’t waste your money here. Read more

I have eaten here countless times over the years. I usually get the sesame chicken lunch special. I got it today. Pros: Same people running the place for years. Service is friendly. Food comes out quick. Portions are very large. Lunch special is pretty cheap. $8 roughly. Sauce is tasty. Cons: Rice is dry. Chicken has a weird taste ... and is frozen. They cannot seem to make the chicken crispy, despite me asking. Spring rolls / Egg rolls are just kinda gross / not fresh. Overall just cheap generic Chinese food with no soul. I really wish we had good quality Chinese food in KW but we don't since Dragon Court closed, so you may as well come eat here. Read more

TERRIBLE QUALITY. TERRIBLE SERVICE. 1 🌟 is being nice. I was previously a fan of this place as they gave very generous portions and they had pretty decent quality. Unfortunately when I ordered last night their service took a real nosedive. The food, while still generous, was basically inedible. We had to ... throw out the huge container of Shanghai noodles that was full to the top of oil, and had absolutely no flavor. All of the other food was very, very greasy and very, very bland. My wife's veggie dish was barely cooked, the vegetables were all basically raw. I ordered the option of extra spicy on some dishes, and also made a note to make it extra spicy, and there was literally no heat detectable whatsoever, so they clearly just don't care about any request you make. They also gave no chopsticks, no napkins and no condiments of any kind. The bag was also terribly packed with half of our food open and leaking and it was clear they just really didn't care about what they were doing. Read more
