WowYauChow Swinton — Restaurant in Salford

Lovely warm welcome in a relaxed and comfortable atmosphere with modern ambient music. The aroma hits your nostrils as you walk through the door and tempts you into ordering absolutely everything off the menu! We were greeted at the door with a huge smile and within moments were led to a group of tables and given our choice of seating arrangement; rustic wooden tables with a choice of comfortable mid-back chairs or sturdily constructed wooden benches with simple metal scaffold frames, or mix and match. I opted for the bench and was surprised at how comfortable they were. For food we selected a variety of dishes to try. First off we shared a portion of "Wok The Cluck" loaded fries - salt and pepper fries with breaded chicken pieces, fresh onions, peppers, spicy mayo drizzle and they were absolutely delicious! I'm not a fan of spicy food but the flavours were so perfect, not the sort to burn your lips off but still leaving lots of warmth and flavor to enjoy. Highly recommended! Next up we had Bao Buns. I went for the traditional duck and my wife had the Sweet Chilli Chicken. Wow... The buns were soft, moist and delicious and the fillings were plentiful and full of flavour. Fresh crunchy veg, sweet Hoi Sin with succulent strips of duck. I couldn't resist a bite of my wife's Bao Bun (don't be rude!) And oh my word, the flavor and the texture were absolutely superb. Sticky and delicious, crispy chicken with a little kick. My wife also had a portion of Buffalo Dumplings and she thoroughly enjoyed them... I've not seen her this quiet in a while, she ate one before I had chance to take a picture so excuse the absent dumpling! 😂 She is very well acquainted with Oriental Cuisine as her family is part Korean and she commented that they're some of the best dumplings she's ever tasted! For mains we went with the small sweet and sour chicken with fried rice (how western of me!) And my wife went for the small Garlic Chicken cutlets with noodles. The garlic sauce on the noodles was delicious, soft and succulent chicken with a subtle and not overpowering garlic flavour. The noodles were also cooked to perfection. The sweet and sour chicken was to die for! Lightly battered individual bite size chicken pieces covered in one of THE best sweet and sour sauces I've ever tasted, served on a bed of hot and sticky fried rice. I gave up with the chopsticks and reached for the fork as I just couldn't shovel it in quickly enough 😃

They have both Vegan and Vegetarian menus with just as many options as the main meat-lovers menu! Fantastic selection, but not so much that you spend more time looking at the menu than you do devouring the selection you eventually settle on. Want my advice? Just pick something, enjoy it, then come back again for something different! I know we...

Me and my partner had dinner here for Valentines day. The server seemed annoyed by us from pretty early on, we waited quite a while to get a drinks order in and for the food as well but hadn't complained at all so I'm unsure why we seemed to be treated differently. We were the only table that wasn't given prawn crackers which at first I thought you maybe had to order them but every table that was sat afterwards got some soon after being seated. The host/bartender was very lovely however our main server made us feel like an inconvenience throughout the meal. As it was valentines day I left feeling quite upset as this was supposed to be a special meal for us and we don't get to...

Just had a fantastic experience at WowYauChow! Not exaggerating when I say the best Chinese food I've had in my 7.5 years being vegan. We were a party of 10 and there was so much choice, something for everyone. All of us loved our food and left raving about it, we'll definitely all be back!

All the portion sizes were great, I had the OneManFu which was such good value for money and packed full of flavour.

The service was also fantastic. I wish I'd gotten the name of the staff member serving but she was so so lovely, gave recommendations and making conversation with us, she just made us feel so welcome! Can't wait...
