The Kosher Wok — Restaurant in Brookline

We had a great experience here. 7 of us walked in for late dinner around 8:40. They did notify us that they close at 9:15, but gladly let us in.

Nice pleasant decor inside, great food as well! We ordered General Tso's Chicken (I asked for one regular and one not spicy at all for the kids, and both were exactly as we requested) and Mongolian Beef, as well as 2 soups (kids liked both) and a ton of vegetable egg rolls (which were also liked by everyone).

They brought in the Mongolian Beef sizzling on the frying pan, an awesome way to serve it, and the kids liked it a lot.

They did ask to please bring in everything at the same time to speed us up, and it was very reasonable given they let us sit down so close to closing time.

In addition, their entries did not come with rice, which I already knew by reading other reviews before visiting. We ordered a plate of regular fried rice and another with vegetable fried rice, both were great.

It was exactly enough food for all 7 of us, and a fantastic experience. One of the kids said this was the tastiest Chinese she ever had, and I tend to agree.

Very pleasant experience, I wish we had a Chinese like that in our town! Thank...

Staff was polite, but I couldn't finish my meal.

General Tzao Tofu: Tofu was cut too large. Under-battered. Under-done. Sauce wasn't thick enough. Something about the texture and flavor made me feel weird and I had to throw it out.

Chicken fried rice: tasted like there was no sauce, literally just rice and chicken fried together. Not even the tiny chunks of carrot, onion, and peas I expect in a plain friend rice. Bland and boring, I couldn't bring myself to finish it.

Egg drop soup: not enough egg first of all, the soup had none of the texture from the whites I expect from an egg drop soup. After adding some of my own spices it tasted alright so I actually finished that.

I worked in kosher Chinese takeout for a few years, and I know that it can be so much better. A...

I ordered take out from there tonight and was sorely disappointed. I hadn’t been there in quite a while (since the management change). Maybe the chef changed too! The chicken with cashews contained fatty chicken that tasted like it was barely cooked, not like the crispy, flavorful chicken that used to be in it. The beef with broccoli had no flavor and didn’t have any garlic sauce on it. The vegetable medley was full of corn starch and American celery. Other than that there was no taste! The scallion pancake appetizer was burnt. Definitely this restaurant has gone downhill and this was close to the worst Chinese food I have ever had! I am sorry to report this because my family used to love...
