A Wok — Restaurant in Mansfield

This was a big disappointment today. I ordered a large portion of chicken curry and the fried wonton appetizer for lunch today. Before I discuss the food, there is a big issue that needs to be addressed.

The store front. Man, it's just awful. There are a couple broken coolers with soda in them that have handwritten signs that say, "out of order." Then there is a makeshift COVID protector between you and the kitchen, which is perfectly fine. Except it's filthy.

In fact, the whole storefront appeared filthy. Nothing looked like it had been cleaned in ages.

The food was packaged well. I have a ten minute drive home, and my lunch was hot when I got home. So that is a positive.

The food itself though, was very "meh." The fried wonton was overly chewy and the sauce it came with wasn't the best. It was sweet, but came off as just a sugary substance. The filling of the wontons left a lot to be desired. Almost no flavor at all.

The curry though, was the big swing and miss today. I was so excited because I have been craving a good Asian curry for a while and didn't know anywhere in Mansfield to get one. So when I found it on the menu here, I jumped right to it.

I'll start with the good. The veggies were cooked well. They were tender yet not overcooked. The heat/spicey level is perfect for me. It wasn't so hot it was burdensome, but it definitely had my nose running while I was eating.

Now the bad. This has the worst cooked chicken I've ever eaten. It was mushy and seemed like it was just boiled in water. The curry itself lacked flavor. They need to double the amount of spices they are using to create the curry. Because this has nearly no curry flavor to it at all.

To wrap this up, the storefront was hideous, dirty, and uninviting. The food was very meh. And nothing stood out to me as a great, or even good, experience.

I don't see myself...

Ordered dinner and waited 45 minutes. Dinner order was cancelled without any notice. Waited another 30 minutes and learned of the cancellation.

Update: I was in town again about 3-4 weeks later, I thought I would give them a second chance. I ordered and they declined multiple drivers from picking up the order. I waited over an hour to finally get my order. When I tried to rate the order, they charged my credit card and cancelled my order so that I could not put in a rating!!!!!

I will never give this place...

I love A Wok! The tofu meals are my favorite. I've gotten General Tso/tofu and Tofu and cashews. Both are delicious! The front counter crew is so nice, yet also straight to the point so they can quickly begin your order. The chefs do an excellent job of preparing very delicious meals that feel so much healthier than American options. I'm glad the A Wok family is here! They are all so good at what they do. Easily one of my most favorite Chinese restaurants. Thank you!!!!...
