The Wok — Restaurant in City of Rochester

Do not trust the reviews of this place. This was the worst chinese food I've ever had. Also be warned they will not read any notes you leave on grubhub, requests you have will be ignored.

Sesame Chicken was soggy and gross chicken wasn't crispy and fried like it should be, it seemed boiled.

Chicken With Broccoli was slimy and inedible. It came with White sauce, I put a note in my order for "extra brown sauce on the side" which should have indicated that I wanted it made with brown sauce like 99% of other chinese places. I think if you're gonna switch it up and use a totally different gross sauce, you should indicate that in your menu somewhere....noone orders this expecting a liquidy clear white sauce that tastes like dishwater.

Sweet and sour chicken- chicken was soggy not crispy, this seems to be a trend

The lady was insanely rude to me when I went to pick it up, like right off the bat before I even said anything. She seemed in a real rush to get me out of her face.

Both me and my girlfriend got sick from the food.

I honestly can't believe so many reviews say it's great or "the best in town" it was like they went out of their way to make the worst chinese restaurant in the world, and...

We stopped in because we found the coffee house unexpectedly closed on a Sunday afternoon while we were enjoying a walk on the river path. A young lady exiting The Wok encouraged us to give it a try. We were very happy we did!

Owing to my having a minor surgical procedure scheduled the next morning, I was restricted to a liquid diet. For this reason, I was nervous the staff might be unable, or unhappy about this, and was prepared to settle for tea. Not at all! The lady who served us happily adapted the miso soup to be broth only, and brought us coconut juice and jasmine tea. I didnt miss the hoped-for cup of coffee at all!

My friend was pleased with the sweet and sour soup, and the miso broth was delicious and quelled my hunger. The smells of the food at tables around us was lovely, the portions looked large, and the other diners seemed quite satisfied. The staff were incredibly welcoming, even though ours was an inexpensive check.

This place appears to be a hidden gem with regulars who appreciate it, but dont spread the secret too widely. We look forward to a return visit when I can enjoy more substantial fare...

Looked vacant and abandoned upon arrival on a Saturday afternoon, so I was initially skeptical. The service was prompt and friendly, despite us two couples having two babies with us. The menu was large, arguably having "something for everyone". Wife has recently gone vegan and our friends are vegetarian so I was scared of options. My fears were for nothing. They have vegan and vegetarian options, too. We all LOVED our food. I got the orange chicken, but (feeling a little pressure) took a chance with chicken substitute (made from soy protein, maybe seitan?). Despite being vegan, this was the BEST orange "chicken" I've EVER eaten. BY FAR. If all fake chicken/vegan dishes were this amazing, I'd go vegan and never look back! And the entrees were HUGE. The bill was not, though. :) As we were leaving, I saw sound equipment being hauled in for the evening. Maybe dinnertime here would cure the seeming lack of atmosphere. But if you're going for food, you OWE IT TO YOURSELF...
