" Popped into Golden Wok after a recommendation from a friend, and it did not disappoint! The egg drop soup was phenomenal, and the sesame chicken was perfectly crispy. The staff were super friendly and helped me with menu choices as it was my first visit. The only downside was the cramped seating, but the quality of the meal ensured I will definitely return! " (*Curated Review*)

" The service at Golden Wok was exceptional from the moment we arrived. The staff treated us like valued guests and made us feel welcomed. As for the food, the tom yum soup was hands down the best I've tasted! It had the perfect balance of heat and flavor. The portions were plentiful, and the prices were fair. Unable to recommend this place enough! " (*Curated Review*)

" This quaint little restaurant brings some of the best flavors from Asia. I usually get their pho for lunch, and it's a great affordable option. The portion is decent for the price as well. Though I have encountered some hiccups with the service, they always make an effort to correct any mistakes. It's definitely a place worth visiting if you're in the area! " (*Curated Review*)

" This was my first time dining at Golden Wok and frankly, it didn't impress me. The beef stir-fry tasted bland, and the portion sizes seemed smaller than expected for the price. The staff were friendly, but the slow service left a bad impression. I might give it another chance, but I'm not rushing back anytime soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" As soon as I walked into Golden Wok, I felt a sense of belonging. The staff were very friendly, but best of all, the food was delicious! I ordered their dumplings and the yellow curry, which were fantastic. The curry was rich and not overly spicy - a perfect balance. I do wish the ambiance was a bit nicer, but the comfort of the food outweighed it. Can't wait to return! " (*Curated Review*)

" Golden Wok serves a variety of delicious dishes, but I found the sweet and sour chicken overly sweet for my liking. The ambiance could definitely use a bit of a facelift, but the service was prompt, and the staff were all very friendly. Their prices are reasonable, and the portion sizes are decent. I'll likely keep coming back for other options! " (*Curated Review*)

" Honestly, my experience at Golden Wok was not what I expected. The pho lacked depth in flavor, and the service felt a bit rushed. However, I cannot deny that the portion sizes were commendable, and the dessert was rather nice. I might consider giving them another chance, just to see if it was a one-time issue.
