Best KPortal Reviews
The food here is what I've come to expect from a non-specialized Chinese restaurant. The portions were big but lacking in flavor. There was a distinct lack of savoryness.
Once upon a time, they used to provide in-house dining. However, ever since COVID, they only offer take-out. This, despite most places returning to the traditional restaurant model of service.
It's hard to complain about the food when you're expectations are low. I don't necessarily blame this place for its lack of quality: there has been a general trend away from the traditional Americanized Chinese style of cuisine. In its place are more authentic flavors and styles. Not that I have anything against that. It's just that sometimes you want a good General Tzo's with some fried rice. An additional problem comes the cut of meats used because there's not enough cooking that will disguise the cheapest possible cut of beef or questionable chunk of chicken.
This was the first time at this restaurant. I got the veggie delight and white rice. The white rice seemed stale. The cooks didn’t have gloves on or hair nets, and one of them sneezed while making the food and didn’t wash his hands. I ate the food there and about an hour later I was already in the bathroom with diarrhea. I awoke that night several time with stomach cramps, vomiting and more diarrhea. I had chills and sweat, and had to call out of work. I called the restaurant and informed them and they were yelling and trying to tell me I had gotten sick because of the weather. I told them I was not sick prior to eating the food and as a nurse, I knew what symptoms came with cold weather. I asked for a refund on my credit card and they said they didn’t have my card information. I went into the restaurant and the owner and his wife were hostile and saying the same things they had said on the phone. I asked for cash refund and I had the receipt. The owners wife started throwing the money on the counter. I had to remind her I had given a tip so she threw some more money on the counter, but still not the entire amount I had spent. I will never go back there again. They were rude when I was just trying to be helpful so that no one else got sick.
The 2 Chinese restaurants we usually order from switched to Asian fusion, which includes sushi and Thai food, so the number of Chinese dishes is limited. We decided to give Wok on the Wild Side a try and were very pleasantly surprised. The menu was extensive, the prices reasonable and dishes didn't have an excessive amount of broccoli.
This place is one of my local favorites. The food is consistently good and the friendly and fast service can't be beat. Highly recommend!
East Granby ct wok on the wild side.I did take out pu pu plater for 2 a small a small veggie rice small pork rice..smallest portions I have even seen the food is just reheated frozen food worst Chinese food I have had in my life I did take pictures of this nasty food I will never go there again ..rated 4.2 no way food is a 2 out of 10
Good, quick food for a good price. Staff is friendly. Their pork fried rice is really good and looks homemade instead of batch ordered and saturated in sauce like many other Chinese places.
Good hot food. Tends to be over cooked sometimes. Friendly staff. Wonton soup is the Chinese penicillin for our family, does the job of killing a cold in its tracks, love it!!
This is my favorite Chinese spot and I travel from far to get there food! The tsos, the beef on a stick, chicken on a stick, almost everything ive had here is great! That said they really floored me today with this really sad excuse for beef lo main…. Noodles were so soggy and over cooked they resembled linguini more then thin pasta noodles and it was rly disgusting! Was a real bummer as this is all I got this time seeing some on tv and figuring all there other food is on point but man was I wrong I’ll never get the noodles here again I don’t know if a child was cooking it or what but I expect that from bottom of the barrel spots that don’t cost 10 for low main ????
