"I love Golden Wok for quick and cheap Chinese Food"
"I would give this palce 5 stars but I have my own unique standards that are influenced by health and quality"
"Was good food but I had a bad experience tonight when I went to pick up my food first it says open till 11:30 every night I just finished work and went to pick up my food and one of the workers looked at me with attitude and said we’re closed well I already had placed my order a few a while ago but the attitude wasn’t necessary nor the rude looks I’m a paying customer and the doors were still open I should have just turned around and walked out"
"So I just ordered via phone and had asked that the delivery man have change for $50 because that is all I had"
"Quick and friendly service for take out here"
I love Golden Wok for quick and cheap Chinese Food. They have a dish I haven’t seen at other similar Chinese takeout spots called Spicy Basil Chicken which comes with white rice or for an extra buck or two, you can get fried rice instead—a pretty good meal for under $7-$9. I love this dish—it’s not anything super spicy, it just has a quite mild kick to it—and it’s also not crazy greasy. Definitely don’t plan to eat-in. There’s just one small booth as it’s a tiny hole-in-the-wall type old place, and certainly nothing that offers much atmosphere. But for tasty, rather inexpensive takeout or delivery, they’re very good. Very good to note: it is CASH ONLY—both for takeout as well as delivery.

I would give this palce 5 stars but I have my own unique standards that are influenced by health and quality. This establishment does use MSG and Hydrogenated Soybean Oil which are critical to your health. I dont eat here anymore as a result. If that is not a problem or concern for you, the food here is amazing and has great portions. Since they are a busy business, the infredients arw used frequently and fresh. If you would like a quick bite and dont mind taking somw health risks, this is the place for you.

So I just ordered via phone and had asked that the delivery man have change for $50 because that is all I had. The man on the phone has the audacity to tell me to make sure that the money was real. How can you be so rude and assume that my money is counterfeit? I responded that it was real and the man keep saying that most of the time it isn't. This is ridiculous and might not be ordering from there again. I felt insulted.
Quick and friendly service for take out here. Decent food if you need to fill up quickly.

Vegetarian offerings but it may be cross containment with meat stuff
My go to for (American style) Chinese food. They are ridiculously fast, cheap prices, and large portions. I will only get egg drop soup from this restaurant, it's perfectly proportioned egg to broth ratio and plenty of crunchy egg noodles. The meat is a good quality too, even with fried dishes. I've had some mishaps wih delivery before, but otherwise it'd be perfect. Highly recommend!
Horrible... seriously they need to do better! I order chicken wings and they were old ...very old!(I placed my order at 11am... they open at 11am)why would my food be old? ...because reuse old food that wasn’t sold days prior. It’s insulting that in black and Hispanic communities we can’t receive quality food. I won’t order again.. too many options in the city to settle on trash.
Giving this four stars because you need to understand what you’re getting into. This is a cheap cash only Chinese food restaurant that gives you a ton of food for a small price. I don’t get too into the menu, usually just the General with rice, but that’s also why I’m giving it four stars because if that’s what you’re looking for this is a solid option. Easy. Quick. Tasty.
They forgot my order and made me wait for close to 2 hours than when I called they tried to give me credit n the food was for my son this place is so unprofessional I’m really disappointed as I’ve been a customer of theirs for years n I always try to tip the delivery guy at least 5-10 dollars and the food tasted of poor quality I should of been wary of the previous reviews
This place is horrible!!! After being hung up on three times trying to order, they didn't have 3 of the 4 items I wanted off their menu. When we finally got our food it was Luke warm and DISGUSTING. Chicken was grizzly and fatty, sauces tasted like nothing and everything was covered in oil. Will never order from here again and they deserve to go out of business.
Deben mejorar el lugar, todo se ve viejo y sucio, el área de afuera está sucia y se mantienen varios homeless y se siente un poco inseguro, más iluminación sería excelente y más limpieza, la comida es buena, el servicio es un poco mal,

Been going here for years. The cooking has gotten better, but the menu basically stays the same. They have the usual offerings, as far as Chinese fast food goes, but the also have a steamed food section, and vegetarian. Unlike a lot of restaurants nowadays, they actually still deliver!
I've been going here for years. The food is good and at a reasonable price. They always prepare my food as I recommend. And, I've never been had any stomach or digestive issues from this restaurant.

I love golden Wok. The food is cooked really fast and always fresh. They over stuff your containers with extra rice so you get your money's worth & their prices are cheaper than other local spots. The food is good and always consistently the same.
I've tried several Chinese take outs in the area. When I found Golden Wok I was pleased with them and made it my spot Chinese restaurants in the black areas always suck and they couldn't care less what slop they serve but this one cares a little.
Love the food here they give you a lot for great price

Been order from here for almost 1year and am pleased with the food and service. I have a sensitive stomach and I am picky with my food yet this Chinese restaurant satisfies both. Fast delivery and good prices. So far no complaints.
Iv’e Been buying food here for years and was extremely disappointed when i witnessed the cook pick up a piece of meat he dropped on the floor and proceeded to cook it. I will not be buying food from these people ever again
Luv those crispy chicken wings .. wonder if they're hiring for the summer lol

Worst service ever!!! I ordered a house special eggfoo young and when I opened the container of gravy for my food there was a roach in my gravy, so damn disgusting, I will never order from them again!!!
I've been eating at Golden Wok for years !!! The food is always good and prepared in a timely manner. The staff is nice and they will always go out their way to accommodate you
My boyfriend is a fiend for Chinese. He knew the food was good the minute he walked in. I’m hooked on this place as well. REAL garlic sauce! I love it and you will too …
Been living here all my life and this Chinese spot is probably the best in the tri-state area, no other Chinese food I rather go for, I just wish they accepted card payments.
Excellent customer service, and the best Chinese food of its league in the area. There are at least two Chinese restaurants closer to me, but I choose here every time.
I ordered two times and the chicken stinks and taste sour. Inside the restaurant smells bad terrible experience.

Food is good for the money, this is a cash only establishment. Very good homemade ice tea. Can’t go wrong with the chicken wings with tostones. Take out only More
Everything about this place is Horrible Horrible Horrible. service poor food stale and over charge for small portion amount. SAVE YOUR MONEY NOT WORTH IT !!!

It's an average run of the mill looking uptown semi ghetto run by workers who always seem rushed and angry Chinese food joint BUT the food is GOOD!
I enjoy that the food is always fresh and cooked to your liking once you call all the time thay delivery fast to hardy from washington heights
I placed an order and they still gave my oder wrong what made it bad was I told they three times what I wanted and they still got it wrong
Worst Chinese restaurant in the area. They had mixed my order twice. Also, the chicken wings had some fried feathers on the skin.
Your average Chinese-American takeout. Delivery driver was very kind and wore a mask. Food arrived hot and was not disappointed.

The preferred Chinese takeout/delivery option in the Hamilton Heights area. Better food and better service than the others.
The food from here made me sick i wouldn't reccomend the food isnt fresh either I had stomach ache after eating their food
Flavorless and not many vegetables for a veggie lo mein, highly disappointed, especially for the price. Egg roll was ok
Yuck! Don't order from here. They don't use real chicken and my lo mein had some long wire thing stuck in it. Terrible!
The lunch specials are a great deal on tasty food! Doesn't come with a soda despite what the menu says, unfortunately.
Love it here, they even let you put your own ketchup and BBQ sauce on your order...that's always a plus for me …
It was alright food with super friendly service, but I stopped going there when the sanitation rating dropped to a B.
Golden Wok is constantly dumping unwanted menus around the door and entry of our building. Please stop this spamming.
Really good food except for the false advertising on their menu. The final price is different from menu. BE WARNED!!
Teryikai Chicken is amazing! Let's go!
