Wok Station — Restaurant in San Francisco

Expensive Chinese food, but open late. I spent over $50 for hot and sour soup, lemon chicken, and Singapore noodles (that includes me tipping for GrubHub delivery though/fees, which were minor because I used GrubHub+).

The lemon chicken was very sugary, but I expected that. Unfortunately, it steamed during the delivery and so was not crispy, but that's not the restaurant's fault (unless they did what other restaurants sometimes do and figured out how to let the steam out with a different container which would be nice). The chicken was your standard restaurant Depot factory farm fare- probably comes pre-breaded. Nothing special, but again, it was a late night necessity. I wouldn't get it again. When I opened the container to eat the leftovers after it sat in the fridge, it smelled like feces. I ate it anyway and have some bubbling guts but hopefully won't get diarrhea.

The noodles were the highlight. Heavy portion of food. Came with enough shrimp that I didn't feel ripped off. However, only noodles, shrimp, white onion, and green onion. I would have liked more green onion. I would have also liked something else in there to cut the blandness and huge portion of noodles. Oh, there was a tiny bit of scrambled egg too. Not enough to really taste or jazz up the noodles much.

Now my real issue with the food- I love good hot and sour soup, and this was great across the board except for one issue which ruined it- it was nauseatingly sweet. Way, way too much sugar. I don't expect a sugary bowl of soup when I order hot and sour. Totally ruined the soup.

I would order again if it were very late and I was desperate but I would change my order up significantly. However, hopefully that will never have to happen because...

Wok Station is a real hit or miss, I've been ordering from them before and after their unfortunate fire and their food can be really inconsistent.

I wouldn't label Wok Station as a authentic hole in the wall but something more like home made sloppy Chinese food. Not necessarily a bad thing since sometimes that is what you want, decent, greasy, Chinese food.

They are open really late, orders for pick up and delivery are always pretty fast too. I've tried a lot of their menu since I am the type to get late night food on the weekends as a treat. Again, some days it is pretty on point and other days the food is just bland or the ingredients feel like they've been in the fridge too long.

As for recommendations, I would get any of their Entrees and have that with a side of white rice. I've never really had any luck with their Fried rice or Chow Mein/Fun. The Fried rice and Chow Mein/Fun don't reheat well in the microwave. I usually have a lot of leftovers since I usually order 2-3 Entrees and they make good left overs for the next day.

Worth a try if you're hankering for some Chinese take out at 12:00 AM, otherwise you're better off looking for...

I ordered a meal for two may have been Canton can’t remember literally had to throw it out nothing tasted OK even the color was off don’t know if they change their chef because we have ordered there at least twice a month I think for a year since they first opened and never ever have had such a horrible meal. I am so sad that I have to find a new restaurant to order from I don’t know if they change their chef or what but it was horrible the food didn’t even taste like Chinese food, the sweet-and-sour was soggy the kids fav like just mushy and then the meat was really tough. It’s like it have been sitting out there for l five hours and then got served and I used to drive all the way to 22nd Ave. To go there because I liked their food so I don’t know who the new Chef is you need to change or maybe the chef called in sick and they just had some random person who didn’t know how to prepare food cook it, but we literally threw it out and I opened the cans of soup for...
